Real motivation is he wants to help DACAs. Does this mean to you he doesn't care about other people's life.

Ask HN: As an adult introvertish nerd what makes you happy?
Since I got out of college, I have been trying to hustle through for growth and am finally running a funded startup now as founder/CTO. But last 6-7 years have just gone by damn fast. Always loved learning new stuff, but don't have enough time to really be immersive in anything. Now when I see an interesting problem in math/physics I can hardly give it an actual shot and it makes me very very sad deep down. Developing a strong desire to go back to college if this unhappiness continues, but has that really worked for anyone here?

> PS: I tried the philosophy as per http://www.paulgraham.com/todo.html:

[x] "Don't ignore your dreams" => Doing it. Makes some part of a day to feel good... |

[?] "Don't work too much" => difficult to achieve in combo with above :( |

[?] "Say what you think" => Not easy as an introvert INTP, but learning |

[?] "Cultivate friendships" => Damn difficult to meet genuine folks after college (Would love any suggestions on where to find them... Definitely not facebook :/ ) |

[ ] "Be happy" => Nope. This is just not working...

An interesting thing too you may experience at discovery is that the other party has documented their own parallel but self-serving version of events via emails to themselves.

Don't know about year of release, but these are sci-fi books I enjoyed reading this year...

The book of strange new things (Michel Faber). This isn't typical sci-fi, it's hard to describe. It's quite slow paced. I can't really talk about it without spoiling it. I really felt impacted by it though, I think the book has a deeper philosophy that isn't really mentioned but requires thinking about the meaning. I thoroughly recommended it if you are willing to be thoughtful about a book and not just after laser and space battles. Another book by the same author (under the skin) is also good, and has been turned into a very weird film with Scarlet Johansson.

Other good more conventional sci-fi stuff...

Cool project (altheamesh.com) but please don't spread FUD about CJDNS...

What do you mean by "internet access"? If you mean access to the "commercial internet" then I assure you a lot of CJDNS peers provide gateways to the "clearnet", as they like to call it, and traffic gets routed to it when needed.

A lot of the nodes are connected over existing infrastructure because infrastructure is hard; but yet there are already several dozens of thousands of wireless mesh nodes running CJDNS. For one example of a network (that is not over existing ISPs): https://www.freifunk-karte.de/ and I'm sure you can google for more. The CJDNS project clearly promotes setting up wireless mesh over going with your existing infra.

I believe the flexibility to be part overlay part independent at the same time is a powerful boon to the project actually. Perhaps that's why there are 100s of thousands of CJDNS nodes around the globe?

Regarding routing, CJDNS uses "source routing" which has various advantages. All the satisfied nodes running CJDNS don't seem to be complaining about the routing efficiency.... BATMAN is superior when nodes are actually changing location (i.e. mobile mesh networks), which is not the intended use-case here (CJDNS nodes are at fixed locations and peering connectiongs are set up manually by exchanging keys out-of-band). Also BATMAN is only a routing protocol whereas CJDNS does address allocation and cryptographic peer auth as well, and the routing protocol can actually be changed anyway.
Unless the bug being fixed was some sort of critical security failure that enabled people to game the exchange or manipulate balances. I am guessing this is more of a screw-up by amateurs than a 'take it all down until this hole is patched' situation, but there is a slim possibility that keeping it up was a bigger risk than the reputation hit of extended downtime.

Refusing to negotiate with terrorists isn’t a strategy designed to produce the best outcome in isolation. It’s to avoid providing incentives for more terrorism, despite the consequences viewed in isolation.

So “outcomes are worse if you don’t” is not relevant. Several times as many terrorism incidents with better outcomes on average is not what most people would consider effective anti-terrorism.
This was my first ever look at mesh networks, years ago!! Met a bunch of people hacking on it in c-base. Those guys are awesome! And my go-to example for large successful installations of CJDNS over wireless mesh (40k+ nodes AFAIK!).

We're Agile, why do we need spend time on requirements and architecture? That's so Waterfall 


You do realise you do actualy need some form of requirements, otherwise what are you doing, just writing code with no goal?

Granted it doesn't need to be a big up front document, but some of those slack/confluence/in person meetings will ultimately be around "so, guys/gals for this next proposed , feature, story (requirement), w/e, this is how I'm achieving it". Oh, and as for non functionals..

There's an argument to be had on the lasting consequences of uneven help, or even whether billionaire opportunism is net good for society, but yours doesn't look like a good starting point because it appears to demand perfect help or no help.

Perhaps people are susceptible to recency and trendiness; and perhaps Jeff Bezos also sees opportunistic political timing; and perhaps Jeff Bezos thinks that the uncertain future of hundreds of thousands is a bit tragic; or perhaps the nature of help is naturally uneven, because we are best equipped to help the few issues in front of us.

But your discussion narrowly starts with the character of specifically one Jeff Bezos.
One final note, I personally prefer networks where the incentive to support the network is simply because the members want to see it succeed (mutual benefit all around), not because each node wants to accumulate cryptocurrency.

And it seems to be working just fine without cryptocurrency being involved. Call me naive but I think it's possible to motivate people without money.

I developed narcolepsy in my teens and I can absolutely relate to how you feel. Everyone just thought I was lazy, malingering or, in the case of my general physician, depressed. It took years before I could even see a neurologist, after which an official diagnosis was quickly made.

If you're not already on sodium oxybate (Xyrem), I can't recommend it enough; it's the only thing that puts me in a sound, restorative sleep for more than a few hours.

I'm in the UK where prescriptions for Xyrem are almost impossible to obtain. Fortunately, the precursors for its active ingredient, GHB, are inexpensive and easy to acquire, so I just synthesize it myself. Technically it's illegal, but it would take an especially brave magistrate to convict me for having to overcome deficiencies in the NHS.
My understanding is companies, who meet stringent requirements and can afford to take out insurance policies should they be liable for any loss/misuse of data.
It is not a criticism as much as it is a fact, no less true than ever. The JVM is designed to run Java. Other languages also compile to Java bytecode, and Sun and Oracle have made some helpful changes.

But the VM is OVERWHELMINGLY designed around the requirements of Java and to be performant for Java. Try compiling a non-OO language to fast bytecode without spending a lot of time considering what the analogous Java code would compile to.

Java bytecode is so close to Java, you can decompile it almost directly to readable Java source. Try that with JRuby or Clojure or Scala and see how close you land.

>What do you mean by "internet access"? If you mean access to the "commercial internet" then I assure you a lot of CJDNS peers provide gateways to the "clearnet", as they like to call it, and traffic gets routed to it when needed.

In this case "internet access" refers to access to the big backbones of ISPs that allow CJDNS peers to exchange data. If you don't have an ISP to connect you up to the larger networks a CJDNS peer will not be able to send any data anywhere.

Or how does CJDNS send data across the transatlantic fibre without an ISP?
I live in North NSW, Australia. At my home I have a mango tree, olive tree and am about to put some blueberries in also. I grow tomato's in the garden at the moment and am about to plant my 2nd summer crop of lettuces, rocket and some capsicum and chilli plants. I grow many herbs.

Down the road is my folks farm which I help caretake. They lease the land to the local dairy farmer for his herd to keep the grass mown. Out there we have roughly 30 pecan trees , 2 mangoes, 2 macadamia nuts, 1 starfruit, coffee, mulberries, figs, custard apples, pineapples, dragon fruit,paw paw and bananas in the orchard. Our veggie garden has asparagus, capsicum, chillis, lettuces, garlic,squash, rhubarb and a heap of other herbs and such as seasons permit. Scattered around the house garden we have pomegranate, lemons and heaps of rosemary and mint amongst the tropical plants and English flowers.

We fertalize with cow shit and occasionally surface pellets of equal npk. I also use a house&garden a&b nitrogen mix for some particularly finicky plants or for things that need a quick hit.

I'd love to work in agribusiness but ATM I'm just a labourer. I am helping a friend with tech for a mushroom farm to try get into it a bit.

Granted, that's the bottom of the barrel (single disk, no IPKVM etc.), but $100 keeps you running for over a year. Better servers are easily available as well, usually a couple of times cheaper than AWS.

Is this a US thing? Based on HN only, I'd never know there's anything between the public cloud and racks of own hardware that you have to wire up and maintain.

I have a bunch of quad core 32 GB machines with dual 480GB SSDs for less than $100/month each (and that's a rather expensive provider with great support, you'll cut the price almost in half with e.g. SoYouStart).

Yes, AWS is convenient, but it's far from the only thing in the world.
Mono 5.8.0 Release Notes (initial WebAssembly support)
In that case, the manager should have fired that dev a long time ago.

Best managers I worked for had trust in their developers, and asked for estimates on planning (not bugs). The worst managers didn't trust us, and pushed their own planning on us because they thought it would make us work faster. They thought planning can be negotiated.

I can tell you which projects were within 7% of the deadline, with good quality. And which ones we were always putting out fires, and some never finished.

It should survive; the EU Banking Authority is based in London (it will move post Brexit) and the UK treasury were major influencers on this legislation.

It was sorta rhetorical to make a point about 'internet' meaning just interconnected networks :D And any wireless mesh based network will face the same issue (my reply was mainly about FUD against CJDNS, and some implication that http://altheamesh.com/ is superior because ????)

But anyway, access to the commercial internet and sending data over the transatlantic obviously need "normal" ISPs, but as others have noted below (replies to https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=16135626) that's not the "big issue".

That is disappointing. I wonder if anyone is doing the legal analysis on what it would take to be a 'passthrough provider', who would simply wrap it up in an easier API with a simple TOS.

This isn't two functions: it's actually one function defined by cases. You can think of it as equivalent to

fn x y = case (x, y) of

(_, _) -> 0

but the case becomes implicit in the repetition of the function name at the top level of indentation.

To be honest, these days I think if we want a proper OS and if we want the incentives of the vendor to align with ours, we need subscription OSes.

Right now we have:

* Android - basically ad supported, therefore misaligned incentives

* iOS/macOS - locked into Apple hardware

* Windows - old school licensing until 10, with the problems they mentioned for Vista; new licensing which seems to be more like Android adware

A cheap yearly subscriptions would realign the incentives: I am the client, I want frequent feature updates, I want fast security updates, I want to be the client and not the product, I don't want the company to go under or force development teams into stupid feature development or release trains cause they need to make sure there's a revenue stream.

Basically I pay them for providing timely security and regular feature updates, preferably in an incremental fashion.

Everyone who's not happy with this can either lock themselves into hardware (Apple) or go DYI, basically, with Linux/BSD or just accept that being tracked isn't that bad (Android).

I'd be really sad if the anti-tracking forces within the Windows division lose. There has to be a better revenue model than tracking users and providing ads, somewhere.
