About 10 years ago my organization opted for the People Soft ERP, a version customized for the industry. We were sold on it because we were demoed capability that literally did not exist. A year into the implementation as we were about to go live on a major component, they were still building major parts of it.

In one truly bizarre meeting, they gleefully announced that a feature-- basically the ability for a user to submit word document or similar into the web interface, was done. Great! I thought. Then I asked the question, "Okay, so where do you go to review the submissions once they're made?" There was no response. I asked again. Then it came. "You want to be able to see them? That's not part of the product. Well, I guess your DBA can query them or something. If you want more, that will be a user customization, our estimates put that around $100,000.

That of course wasn't the only issue of this sort. When we refused to sign off on a major deliverable that really hadn't been delivered, literally overnight they walked off the job. Dozens of people. We cancelled the whole project and switched vendors. There was a lawsuit. They settled with us-- those initial demos had been recorded :)

And the lives lost an unforeseen externality. One would hope a company in such a safety critical industry would err on the side of caution. Or are they so strapped for cash they can't afford it?
In a huge way. People don’t pay, people trash the place, people leave and break contract to be never heard of again etc.

On higher risk of any of those is negligible.

You cannot make your own product special without knowing what your competitors are doing.

You have to study the entire market (which means competitors), and then see how you fit in there, and what is special.

I’ve had the opposite experience but maybe it depends on the demographics of the patients that those psychiatrists see. As this peice points out, clinicians are increasingly likely to see the causal link even if researchers are having a hard time establishing that link.[0] I think a large part of that is due to measurement issues and methodological difficulties I alluded to. It took many years to establish the link between cigarettes and cancer. There are scientists who argue against global warming too. So much of science is driven by bias and group think and the pendulum has perhaps swung too far on cannabis. You might ask the psychiatrists you talk to what percentage of their patients with bipolar/schizophrenic type disorders are regular cannabis users.

> But, for complete fission of SNF, fission-product removal is needed at some stage when fission product concentration exceeds a particular level in the fuel rod. No exception for travelling wave burnup.

Of course. This kind of thing is very well established things like [1]. TWR is not interested in burning SNF, that would require reprocessing to convert it from oxide in the first place. Reprocessing is expensive and has historical proliferation concerns. TWR's entire purpose is to approach closed fuel cycle advantages (Gen-IV safety, sustainability, cost) without needing any reprocessing whatsoever. It's a natural step after the US CRBRP mega-boondoggle. Don't reprocess SNF, bury it in geologic repositories and/or boreholes. Burn U-238 at global scale. That's the idea there. It's called a Modified Open Cycle, or Deep-burn once-through fuel cycle.

> Fluid-fuel can be used indefinite time and it is easy to reprocess liquid fuel by any method. There is no crystal structure to get damaged.

Fluid fuel trades solid fuel performance challenges for chemical/corrosion challenges and radionuclide containment challenges. At MSRE, ORNL has yet to account for about 50% of the radioiodine produced. No one knows where it went. that's a huge but not impossible challenge. I agree with the "Easy to reprocess liquid fuel" advantage, but recognize that it is also a proliferation disadvantage.

> Just throw away the hot leg plumbing and heat exchangers every 2.8 years initially (MSRE salt loop was circulated for 2.8 years) and increase this incrementally.
These are rad waste remote operations, which has step influence on cost. What's the operational cost of this at FOAK? What's the operational cost at NOAK? It may be very cheap (Thorcon is well on their way to this) or it may be prohibitively expensive. The only way to really find out is to build and operate such a reactor commercially. To this end we will all benefit.

> Why point fingers at MSR folks when solid-fuel reactors throw away stuff?
Who's pointing fingers? I mentioned downsides to all forms of reactors in the parent comment. MSR is wonderful and exciting and we as a community need to build many more of them and shake them down.

That diagram is wonderful, every part of it makes sense. I also liked how you describe the "lifecycle" step by step. In a way, it made me realize how the Redux pattern fits in with an evolution of MVC.

I think I'm similar to you, in that I've been developing my own solution to manage the whole app lifecycle in a way that makes sense to me, with a library of (mostly) my own modules so I can reuse it across all apps I build.

At the same time, there's value in following "community standards", generic libraries and patterns that most people are familiar with. So, I'm a bit torn on creating my own patterns/utilties versus adapting existing ones that everyone's using.

People trying to reunite a divided island
Your Java example hits too close to home. I know Java pretty well, and despite several good interviews, I got rejected because I didn't know Spring. One company even told me to learn Spring, build an independent project on it, and come back to interview. They followed up with me for 3 months after that till I told them not to anymore. At that time I was proficient in Java, Angular, Typescript, C# & Jython.

Ironically - I got hired into a product company which mostly works on their own internal java frameworks and didn't have a spring requirement. I figured I'll have to give time to learning Spring on the side since most Java jobs require it, but my first project here was on Spring Boot/Hibernate/Angular because of a client requirement, and I was put on it purely because of my Angular knowledge.

I'd understand if a company required complicated stuff done in Spring/Hibernate, but most organizations use of Spring Boot is limited to building rest APIs, for which no previous knowledge is necessary. I haven't yet run into an issue I couldn't solve by less than an hour of googling despite having no experience in it beforehand - even making interceptors and adding Spring Security.

Because of its simplicity I do wonder if I've barely touched the edge of it, and the usual usecase is much more complicated than this, but I'm planning on learning spring on Udemy anyway, so I guess I'll find out.
Your algorithm description sounds like a variant of greedy local search with a NN heuristic. While I personaly do not know of a paper that does this kind of local search (I have not looked), I do want to add that there is a rich literature on "learning to learning", including "learning to optimize" approaches, e.g., https://arxiv.org/abs/1606.04474.
And I was dumb enough to accept an independent study to add openacc support to the library.
Now I'm curious, how to tell from the light poles?
Know Your Customer is performed at different levels for different requirements. You can KYC individuals or businesses. For individuals, there is a Level 2 check which verifies a government issued document and a selfie holding the document. There is also a Level 3 check that includes verifying a proof of residence document like a bank statement or utility bill. The end result is reasonable confidence the individual is a legal resident of a specific jurisdiction. There is also eKYC which is a credit history and other data sources check but you don’t actually process any documents.

Anti Money Laundering is a ongoing process where you subscribe to a service that searches and monitors different lists for the name and birth year of all your customers. It raises a flag for a fuzzy match. The lists range from sanctions and terrorism which should immediately freeze the customer account, to adverse media such as financial crimes which is a judgement call depending on your service, to politically exposed persons or PEP which means to be cautious about transactions that could be improper use of public funds.

Ask HN: How did you decide b/w bootstrapping slowly and looking for VC money?
I've been working on a side-project for the past 1.5 years on nights and evenings. It solves a real problem with a large market potential.

I had a successful paid pilot and the customer was ecstatic and I got another wannabe customer (didn't work out for other reasons).

I need help, though. The product needs help and there's ways to go until it's ready to fully hit the market.

Should I keep trying to grow organically? Or should I more seriously try to get a much-needed growth-spurt to try to dominate the vacuum I see in the market.

I'm sure I'm not the first person to have this quandary, so I'd love to hear other people's experiences.

These sort of low level competitions aren't there to spur innovation - it's just to kindle some interest with kids or the general public. Once you realise that, just smile and move on and let them play fast and loose with words.

Making a tool to automate training plan documents might be a good way for you to contribute to open source. Asking project maintainers to make training plan documents is not a contribution. It's just more work for the project maintainer. Most projects can't handle the management overhead of contributors who haven't invested a lot of time in understanding the project. Few projects want contributors who value their own time more highly than the project maintainer's time.

I think templates are fine as long as they're not abused. Unfortunately, since C++ templates are Turing complete, people will inevitably go overboard with them.

My personal rule is to never nest more than two templates. You can have a template inside a template, but anything deeper than that should be refactored or at least split up into typedefs for readability.

They should have just made a bigger macbook. Their product line up is a disjointed mess.

Hello, Community Advocate from GitLab here.

We are an open core company. We ship two editions - Community Edition and Enterprise Edition. CE is completely open source and licensed under MIT license. EE is proprietary, closed source code but we try to work in a way similar to GitLab CE: the issue tracker is publicly viewable and the EE license allows modifications.

In conclusion (TLDR), GitLab has an open core business model and ships both open and closed source software.

I'm from the UK as well and it's very very relevant that you've mentioned that.

UK is the perfect place for you in this situation. US people might give you advice based on their legislation so be careful who you listen to

1. Set up as a sole trader with the HMRC (the equivalent of IRS for US readers that are curious)
2. Declare your profits
3. You'll pay taxes (and everything is legal as well) on the following brackets: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/income-tax-person...

Scroll down to the chart to see what I'm talking about but here is the highlight:

Any profits between £0 and £12,500 are untaxed — you have to declare them though.

So I'd say yes, don't form a company yet. Godspeed

You're acting as if default risk is the only relevant risk to creditors. Inflation risk is just as real. You can't just wish it away by saying it's "why dollars are safe". And then there are other risks on top of that - liquidity, reinvestment, etc.

Overview of the three main improvements in this release:
1. Detect secrets and credentials in the repository

A recurring problem when developing applications is that developers may unintentionally commit secrets and credentials to their remote repositories. If other people have access to the source, or if the project is public, the sensitive information is then exposed and can be leveraged by malicious users to gain access to resources like deployment environments. GitLab 11.9 includes a new check called Secret Detection. It scans the content of the repository to find API keys and other information that should not be there. GitLab displays results in the SAST report in the merge request widget, pipelines reports, and the security dashboards.

2. Merge request approval rules

Code review is an essential practice of every successful project, but who should review the changes is not always clear. It is often desirable to have a variety of reviewers from different teams like Engineering, UX, and Product. Approval Rules allow you to better communicate who should participate in code reviews by specifying the eligible approvers and the minimum number of approvals for each. Approval rules are shown in the merge request widget so the next reviewer can quickly be assigned.

3. Move ChatOps to Core

Initially introduced in GitLab Ultimate 10.6, ChatOps has now moved to GitLab Core. GitLab ChatOps provides the ability to trigger GitLab CI jobs from Slack by using the slash commands feature. We are open sourcing this feature in alignment with our buyer-driven tier designation to encourage its use and contribution by the community.

Like other people have said, there is a balance to be found. There's certainly a middle ground to be found instead of "I don't like the Prius so I'm going to buy an F150." Assuming no significant externalities, the more sustainable choice is also the more inexpensive choice so that's a benefit. Choosing air travel also isn't all-or-nothing, for example traveling to Cartagena from the continental USA is much less miles and carbon emissions than Phuket. Last, air lines will adjust the frequency of their routes long term so voting with your wallet matters.

I'm curious about whether anyone has released software through Microsoft's app store? What was your experience like? Was it profitable?
What's the best way to get up and running with something like this that's really easy to maintain?
I think you don’t understand “take more profit.” That means they have considered those costs and still they “take more profit” even considering those costs. That’s what profit means.
