When I read this again, it sounds much more aggressive than I intended. I really wasn't trying to be a dick, I just wanted to figure out where anoncoward was coming from and what kind of experience he/she had to enable such strong opinions.

I have published indie monthlies and I'd chalk the Voice's demise up to things like a serious decline in classifieds revenue, trouble getting visibility once they were online only, and the kind of advertising/printing problems that only an indie weekly could experience.

If the sub thirty crowd is that powerful, I'd genuinely love to know.
I have a few Rails apps. Team now wants to move to nodejs. I made a few apps in nodejs. It's such a mess, yarn vs. npm, webpack setup. I guess nodejs community is still searching for their holy grail (Rails.)

Admittedly, I haven't gotten around to actually using WireGuard yet, but I think it's pretty much as simple as Linuskendall said.

We're talking Apple's self-driving car project, though. It's in the title. There's no indication Apple is trying to get into non-self-driving cars. Nobody said Level 5 (100% autonomy) is necessary, but presumably they're at least aiming for substantial autonomy, e.g. Level 4 as others are pursuing.

I'm not sure what you're referring to with regards to Apple web services. People outside the Apple ecosystem are not using iCloud, and even many Mac users prefer alternatives.

Google did have a huge head start on AI and maps, true, but we're not grading on effort here.
I think you're exhibiting some wishful thinking there. It's still not hard to create a FB MVP with tuts.
I would also argue that the pains a social network or a cloud drive solve can be pretty well experienced by a college or younger kid. Many industry specific pains require industry specific experience.
Well, if we assume that there are few successful founders, but enough people to skew the average age higher, then the oldest a few people to shift _that_ much could be are ~90. Since that is unlikely, it's likely that the median is close to the average.

You can still start with plain old html, js, Ajax and a data store. Once, you reach some scale or in parallel, you can hire someone else to do it. There is a lot of open source tech now, which was not available before.
Most of that isn’t necessary until you’re pretty far into the game. I’d argue that the barrier to starting a startup gets lower every year.
That's beautifully neat bit of wirewrapping. And the layout is very aesthetically pleasing. It feels like such craftsmanship should yield a computer faster than one you can buy off-the-shelf.
The article clearly stated that he wasn't speaking for YC. Nor was he talking about success rates. He was recommending that young people explore the world more before getting caught up in a single idea.
I used to dump every thing in GoogleDrive and search. I was enamored with keeping my notes in plaint text, so as to not tie these with any specific tools/app/formats as these go out of fashion every few years. However I realized I also have links/clippings from Web, which needs to be part of my searchable knowledge-base. And I want to be able to clip/bookmark those from my phone as well as Mac and Windows machines. Evernote works great for such use, and has tags(it does not keep notes in plain text format though, these are supposed to be exportable though).
I would not mix video/movies with text based content though(links are fine).
Glyphs aren't copyrightable. Only the programs that draw them - but MSFT can write their own fonts.
Article is light on a number of things, but I can illuminate some things...

Having worked in one of the largest centers that do this kind of work, the standard practice is to do regression models that predict the atrophy of different brain regions as a function of age. Several longevity studies have implicated grey matter densities in the anterior cingulate cortex as predictive of living for a long time.

Almost all of this prior work has been done with T1 imaging and DTI. SPECT is a new kid on the block, and has a lot of fans and detractors. It's use is somewhat controversial it seems. Someday I'll have time to dig deeper into the tech.

This correlates with low neuroticism scores, and is also a brain region that SSRIs improve grey matter volumes of over the long term.

So remain chill, and prosper
Oh wow, glassdog.com that brings back some memories!
I think AI tends to be a race to the bottom due to human nature. If one isn't paying attention (and most people aren't), all youtube video recommendations lead to things like mindless fail-videos.

I had a hard time understanding node.js too. I'm old enough that I remember when jQuery was revolutionary and it really hurt my JavaScript for awhile. Then, I built something non trivial in vanilla ES5 and now, I'm okay with node. I still don't always understand the ecosystem, but the JavaScript community is not for mere mortals like me to understand!

The point is, there's hope, if you want there to be hope. Otherwise, PHP and MySQL are very useful, so if you're happy where you are, you've got a good set of tools behind you.

Keep having fun!
"If batteries are getting so cheap why isn’t anyone making battery powered: chainsaws, full size vacuum cleaners, jet skis, ride on mowers?"

They are. The fire department I volunteer at has put the dewalt battery powered chainsaw in service on our engines (which is significant as we deal with a lot of downed trees, etc.)

I am personally (slowly) switching to battery operated tools for lighter duty mowing and trimming at my ranch (dewalt and bosch).

Further, I see that while the big brands (Polaris, Kawasaki, Yamaha) do not yet have electric quads, you can find them on alibaba, etc., to be shipped to the US.

Heavier duty use-cased - like very large chainsaws and mowers - will still have people like me using IC engines but regular homeowners and even contractors/pros will be switched over to battery for almost everything landscaping/mowing related in the next ten years. It couldn't happen too soon.
When the explicit goal of the event is social interaction, it usually feels that way to me, too, but when there is something else going on, the social interactions are somewhat optional, and feel way more natural/less forced.

I highly recommend finding something you're sincerely interested in doing, and then finding a group to do that thing with. Could be cycling, robot building, 3d printing, softball, etc. I've had the best luck when it is an event that is not generally attractive to people trying to "network" or hook up, etc; not that it's a problem if some people there are doing those things, but if that's what the majority are doing it detracts from the atmosphere for me, and you, too, from the sound of it.
Rather then having two screens try the following setup.

An ultra wide monitor like:

https://www.lg.com/us/monitors/lg-29UM68-P-ultrawide-monitor

Then you have your code screen + browser/test/shell in split screen. it’s like having two full screens due to being ultra wide.

When I am away from my screen I can feel the drop in productivity having to shift between virtual desktops.

If you have a laptop you also get a 3rd screen that you could use for something else like docs.
Bottle into Basket: Realistic Object Composition with AI
That's where fat acceptance has brought us.
My theory remains that a couple Americans were paid to fake symptoms which others then grew convinced they also suffered.
I don't see it a threat, its entirely different segmentation. Microsoft eats up lower pricepoints through its OEM/ODM partners that it can direct by issuing best practice guidances in fit, finish, features, etc and captures what it likes. It does ultra-premium but occasionally dabbles in lower segments- the thing I'm most curious to see is what it considered in the Surface 3 and other slightly more budget conscious releases.

Google was crap at hardware, are they good now? They're hiring like mad right now for hardware PMs from other orgs, and that'll grab some younger talent, but they need pretty seasoned people to rebuild a whole hardware org. They have good hardware design teams but they're fractured from eng, biz, strat and more.

You can be good at a network of your ODMs but that doesn't mean the product comes out to target. Chromebooks were positioned as this cheap school thing for a bit, but then the pixel kinda overshot this by a lot.. they need clear segmentation and targeting goals.
Your objections to a USB-C dock are pretty justified: https://www.reddit.com/r/sysadmin/comments/9bwqt8/dell_tb16_...

Shhh. The nostalgia already did that. You didn't need to say it, too!

I still really like some of the design trends back then. I think a lot of it was because they only had to work on desktop.

I also like those old isometric pixel drawings that were so popular. It was fun to play with as a kid because you could pretty easily follow along with paint, albeit with a lot lower quality.
Everyone has this “my opinion is my own.”
The problem seems to be inherent to public social networks. Facebook and messaging apps like WhatsApp Telegram etc tend to be free of this cesspool, but most public networks (twitter, Reddit, instagram, YouTube) seem to inevitably devolve into it. Hacker news has been surprisingly resilient though.
Nanorobots for Medical Use Are About to Become a Reality
Now it’s at minimum 2 years to learn the deep fundamentals of react/redux/graphql then tying it into lambdas on the back end, maybe another year of study to learn full kubernetes integration , then another year to fully grasp how to set up and side chain in a deep learning pipeline with proper selection of production grade ML framework. Learn them all then choose which one works best. After that to reach youth in mobile sector, take 1.5 years to fully learn iOS and android native platform builds.

Speaking of search space...I've wondered if it would make sense to establish a virtual grid in wilderness areas, based on GPS coordinates. Then establish a convention that lost hikers should move to one of the intersections on the virtual grid and wait there.

An air search for an essentially a randomly placed point (the hiker) in a large area is very hit and miss. It is quite easy for even a trained observer to scan right over someone.

It's much easier for an observer to search a fixed location. The searchers could first specifically look at the grid intersections in a given sector of the search before then doing the general area scan, and then perhaps do a second check of the grid intersections before moving on to the next sector.

The idea is to have known places that will definitely be looked directly at by an attentive searcher during the search rather than just seen in passing in a sweep, that the lost person can find if they have a GPS (or if they have a map that has these places marked).

> If it wasn't for Office and the ecosystem around it, I don't think many firms would opt for Microsoft products.

Many firms and people need Windows software, MS Office is just one example.

You want to edit pictures, Photoshop only runs on Windows and OSX. You want to build things, AutoCAD only runs on Windows. You want to produce music, Cubase only runs on Windows and OSX.
Startup companies need to understand their customers and solve a real and valuable problem. The tech stack is simply a means to that end. There are a vanishingly small number of customer problems that require years of tech proficiency across a wide range subjects to build a successful product.

Propagating nonsense about needing to have deep understanding in widely different fields (ML! DevOps! Frontend!) is not only patently wrong, it is needlessly discouraging.

My first ASIC was validated like that. A much larger wire wrapped board with a bunch of FPGAs.

It only worked if you gently pushed with your hands into the wires, but it was sufficient to discover a bunch of bugs (that should have been found in simulation, but we were total cowboys back then.)
Here's what I would do:

1. Spend a couple of hours doing some research. So you'll learn "regression test" means "automated test to ensure a bug is fixed and doesn't reoccur", and about some automated testing frameworks for your language of choice.

2. Spend another hour doing some minimal automated testing with one of those libraries.

3. In interview when asked about testing you explain "At my previous employer we mostly focused on manual testing, so I did that, and then QA person checked it and usually my manual testing was good enough, so I'm pretty thorough. But I know automated testing is important so I've spent some time looking into it, and I'd probably be using <testing framework you found in step 1> for <your language>."

Basically:

1. Don't lie.

2. Spend small amount of time to make sure you have basic albeit superficial knowledge, which is a lot better than "dunno".

3. Communicate you can learn on your own.

4. Communicate you care about quality.

Carlo Rovelli on challenging our common-sense notion of time
I meant specifically within the context of a platform for the developers to communicate information about React.

Twitter is, IMHO, a poor consolation of a communications channel both for the producers and those consumers interested in non-PR reviewed, non-release React information from the developers but not their insights into spinners, TV shows, and whatev.

My general point is that a more official but still on-topic communication channel could be beneficial. I do not believe people should be restricted in what they post on their personal Twitter accounts in this context.
Software is a commodity for complex or difficult industrial problems nowadays, so domain expertise is as relevant as coding abilities to sustain a profitable startup. Domain expertise cannot be acquired by chance and good scientists that have been trained for a long time become entrepreneurs later in their life, often after a stint in academy or corporation labs.
This can be difficult. I was looking for a system to organize all the personal knowledge beginning of the year. I tried Evernote and several of the alternatives such as OneNote, but none of them stuck with me well. My main issue was storing code along with the notes. Evernote does provide code formatting but not very friendly with the syntax highlighting.
I also tried Quiver for storing code, but it is specialized towards code storage.

Currently, I am trying StackOverflow Team but only for myself. I am so used to question and answer format that it makes it easy for me to dump the information. Most of my searches on Google ends up on StackExchange families of the website that this solution has that familiarity. Plus, it has some versioning built into it. It lacks on some fronts such as limits on the size of images. I am still looking for a better solution.
But having to set up a whole Google account for multiple profiles on a Chromebook is a lot more ponderous that simply creating another profile as is possible with Chrome running on Windows/Linux/Mac OS.

But if they are lost how can they find these points? If they have GPS and know where they are then they can find their way out. This only makes sense if you know you will be in trouble shortly but are not yet, I.e. you are very low on water, but most people don't realize how deep they are, then panic.
Not at all. Its image processing algorithms are often subpar, missing the final touch that is present in Adobe products, admitting it as much as I hate their subscription model.
The pacemaker example doesn't resonate with me. Its a very well-posed problem - don't let the patient die. You don't have to be user to understand how to make things better. For things like personal computing its a bit different. Problems are very ill-posed and often the question is what to make. In the second category its better to start with a map of the future and refine it with user feedback. However often users don't know what they want and then you need folks like Jobs.
Is it a commodity? Why is such a premium placed on senior engineers then?
Should I pay 3X's as much to get only 10% more experience, is a great question. But if I frame the choice as, I could pay less than $0.50 / hour for better experience on something important to me, my calculus is different.
No worries. You do punctuation better than youtube. I was wondering if you could do a hack which kind of combined the two results. Youtube must be doing something kind of sophisticated to get things like "Paul Buchheit" correct like doing a pre search of people connected with Paul Graham.

"define tables as SQL data sources" ?

Excel can query external data sources with SQL queries, and pull the results back into the spreadsheet.

And via ODBC you can use .xls files as data sources, and query them with SQL style syntax from other programs. (I don't know how far beyond the basic "SELECT [Column Name One], [Column Name Two] FROM [Sheet One$]" it can support).

Both of those date back - https://www.connectionstrings.com/microsoft-excel-odbc-drive... - most look like Excel 2000 or Excel 97.
>Him turning away from the right because of the Iraq War and 2008 financial crisis seems kinda strange given that more 'left' wing parties also backed both in many parts of the world (like the UK, and probably the US) and how many people on both sides disagreed with one or both policies, which makes it questionable whether they'd be rightly counted as 'right wing' or 'conservative' ones.

He's an independent thinker. Instead of automatically affirming everything one side believes, he thinks out each major issue on its own merits. That was the point of how it was freeing to break with the conservatives on both of these issues. That is why he says we need solid thinkers on both the liberal and conservative sides.
