My product is called Devev. I moonlit the product for the past few years while working at Microsoft. I quit about a month ago to get it over the finish line. I'm still pre-launch but here are some images: https://imgur.com/a/zLS1g0t

I worked on video games for the past few years and saw many less technical colleagues empowered by tools like Unreal Engine's Blueprint (https://docs.unrealengine.com/en-us/Engine/Blueprints). I thought that the same paradigm may apply more widely but the visual languages used outside of games weren't really hitting the mark.

Devev is a framework for creating visual programming languages. They are supported through extensions. For launch I'm working on an extension which parses TS types and allows you to use the existing code in nodes. That's what you'll see in my image above. This will allow early users to tap into existing libraries published on NPM.

I don't expect much traction with the launch version and plan to target a specific domain shortly after that. I'm leaning towards a build system where you can capture your dependencies in a visual graph. One of the applications I'd been thinking about was allowing users to build and share games or other applications in a web-editor similar to Scratch.

Devev is also a JS SPA and the client editor uses Electron. The client editor supports more features like multiple windows, editors panes and plugins. Additionally the client can parse new Typescript files but not the SPA. For the SPA to parse TS I'd need to deliver TSC over the web which I won't figure out for V1.
Google Adx doesn't share the last octet of the IP in BidRequests.

You can of course cookie match with them so it is possible to persinnaly identify someone if you were able to cookie them.
I've still got one of those - the tone creator on it is awesome :)
Not that's not the scientific consensus but thanks for proving my point by arguing in blind faith.

The scientific consensus which EVERYONE agrees about even the so-called skeptics is that the climate is changing.

There is no consensus that it's human-caused, there are some indications that humans have an effect but you won't find any actual scientific proof of how much.

So the real question here is why you blindly believe something that you haven't even understood. You are literally just repeating the media not actually science which is a much more subtle discussion.
You are wonderful, just wanted to say that.

I hope your OS finds a stable niche to live in, and you get lots of great contributors. Thank you for writing this, its existence makes me deeply happy :)
Your favorite tool that produces json should be able to work. I'd probably use jsonnet, which has a multi-file mode so that one template file can render into many json files.
Anyone else remember that whitespace bot that spammed everyone's repos? Last thing we need are more bots clogging our code shitters.
World's First Digital Circuit Breaker Could Completely Change Our Powered World
You can't sanction major economies without hurting yourself. It's why sanctions are used on nations with weak economies. Systematically important economies like the US, EU, China, Japan, etc are "unsanctionable".

Sanctioning china for "values" is as absurd as china sanctioning the US for "values". How would everyone react to china sanctioning the US or Europe for invading much of the middle east and north africa. Everyone would laugh.

Also, sanctions are acts of war at best and war crimes at worst. Economic sanctions exist to starve and hurt the population to punish the government. By any objective measure, it is a war crime and crime against humanity. "Luckily", rules and laws don't apply those with the greatest weapons.

Also, I highly doubt most of china's people would side with the US against their own government. No more than we'd side with China over the US government. That's not how people work. Especially if foreign government are attacking your own government.

Either we go to war with them or we decide to live with them. China has 1.4 billion people. The idea that we'd pressure them to act a certain way is ludicrous. More than anything, it'd probably have the opposite effect.
A good way to start is taking a piece of music you like and trying to reproduce a reasonable facsimile. Going top down like this gives you some insight into the structure of music without having to start from “first principles”.
That's not very accurate. In North America, most cities are based on a flat rate. Most cities in Europe and Asia work based on distance.

That remembers me of the one occasion I showed up at meeting with a supplier in shorts and flip-flops. Things is, that was
during summer at 30+° C the office dress code up to Directors. And than I forgot the meeting. When I was reminded by outlook it was too late. Still kind of funny to be there in the meeting room and sitting opposite a bunch of guys in suites and ties sweating their a of.

One side of me always wanted to do something like that. I just would have never done it intentionally. But in the end, nobody cared.
So many good comments in this thread.

In addition to a diagnosis and getting the right meds, and all the work / task management habits, I’ve found that meditation and mindfulness has been really helpful for calming me down, and letting me focus on what I need to focus. When I meditate there is usually an initial startup phase where my mind is racing, from one worry or task to another. I consciously try to acknowledge the presence of the task and then mentally tuck it away and try to regain focus on my meditation object (the breath leaving my nose or the breath in my belly for example).

This ability to step away and consciously not engage with a worry or idea is kind of the crux of the ADHD problem for me - so meditation helps. It helps me remember to “let go” and be okay with not focusing on that worry, so I can get back to the central goal sooner.

Many people have mentioned organizational tips like lists and task management. I’d expand to offer systematic organization of physical things in my home to be similarly helpful. The idea follows that when everything has a place (this book goes here, that cable goes there, etc), and you know the place or system rules, then it’s easier to recognize when things are messy and fix the situation. Ive still got a lot of work todo here but that Marie Kondo Art of Tidying Up show helped me for sure.
E-Commerce Surpasses 10% of US Retail Spending
Yes, but the audio quality is not very good. There was a recent incident that was exacerbated by a driver mishearing "there's a fire" as "there's a fight".
At the end of the 90ies, most specimen of Fargesia blossomed and died in Europe. One big contributor was, that basically they were descendant of very few, if not a single plant brought to Europe around the year 1900. With a more "natural" population, the blossoms shouldn't be that much of a big hit. I am also surprised that Phyllostachys is said to die - all literature I knew claimed that the death after blossom is limited to Fargesia.
No, it is not that. The government hasn't prepared some statements in their own name. They prepared coordinated plans for astroturfing, simulating organic, grassroots response, with fake actors and accounts. The whole "War of the worlds" scenario, government-operated.
couldn't you just contribute to lxde or xfce or something?
Or after thinking about it for a moment, true > file. Or by its shorter name, :> file.
The strategy is that you die before the pitchforks arrive.
I think he’s saying that if they did check tickets, there would be "disproportionate [legal] impacts" for certain racial groups.

So they don’t check tickets for anyone.

If it’s true that’s crazy.
Does such a runtime and ecosystem exist for go, and if not, (even if so) what other languages?
Exactly my worst nightmare for AI. And you are probably right about their error rates and the comparison with fortune tellers was just a way to cope.
Would have to tax imports from those countries as well
This reminds me of this great article I found on HN a while back about the Las Vegas incident:

https://story.californiasunday.com/las-vegas-shooting

Whilst not entirely the same, there are some strong similarities - although it was a PR agency that had co-oridinated that social media response. It was eye opening because I did genuinely believe a lot of this kind of thing was spontaneous, but then again I guess it makes sense for _someone_ to organise it at some level..
So what is it that differentiates yor denial from WWII holocaust denials. If you take them into account one can argue, just like you have that there is no 'consensus'. I dont find your arguments anymore illuminating than theirs.

Regarding tobacco there is no need to believe or disbelieve. You can just checkout 25 years of scientific research, many funded by the tobacco companies.

Pray tell us what is it that I claimed as a fact in my comment above that is not a fact. Are we disputing meaning of 'deliberate' or are we disputing that food supply redirection happened on its own without deliberation ... like by way of mysterious magic.

What makes you think my knowledge about these matters is limited to previous comments. BTW there were more than one British sponsored famine in Bengal so do educate yourself before you jump to defend.
This seems like an annoying bodge to carry around. I would prefer an Android phone with some kind of Linux solution[0]. Built in display and battery, and you can use video out if you need a bigger display. Built in cell modem too, you could SSH to a server somewhere and not even need to download the SD card image.

I don't know whether you're trolling or simply naive but that's clearly fraud and the scenario you describe explicitly aims to commit fraud.

At the very least it's violating the terms of service. But very clearly the two of you would have conspired to defraud GitHub and in this case there would even be evidence in the form of an HN comment where you literally ask if this would work.

You may think you're clever but trust me when I tell you that no, you're not, and I've seen enough people try to be exceptionally clever and think "plausible deniability" would cover their butts and then get sued for fraud.
To be fair, it's us who created this problem, not Microsoft. GitHub was too central long before Microsoft acquired it.
That's what the passenger "brake" in the carriages actually does. The brake in the driver cab is the actual thing being used in this article.
What if your measurements are the reason he became a mass murderer? Maybe AI could be useful here.
Yes, this is the main potential problem. The hope is that this is combated somewhat by endorsements being completely transparent, traceable and open data, instead of the intransparant process of peer review - which has its own problem of nepotism.
> every aspect of Patreon is bad for creators

Why? What do you mean exactly?
They should have shipped the original devs version or forked it and worked with him to get it supported and submitted their RH changes upstream etc.
They were, for a while. Isn't the point of this article that they're moving to a much more Western-style policy? Japan was a unique culture, but already feels a lot less so than it used to be.
Neither does Puppet. Many people run it in a masterless "one-shot" configuration.
Join a Global AI Community and Solve Big Social Problems
Because once you understand it, WPF and C# is fantastic to work with. It's hands down the best UI framework i have ever worked with.

XAML makes it very easy to layout apps that scale well, and it's built-in states for controls and easy styling is very handy.
They made some recent changes meant to address this: https://support.patreon.com/hc/en-us/articles/360024952552-N...

Whether or not it'll work is an open question.
I wish my bamboo (inherited from a previous owner) would flower instead of battling me for control of my yard. I really need to read up on the best way to control it - sounds like my variety might be a "runner".
You can't increase success by breeding successful people, because success is created from loss, eventually they add up to zero.
It's true that at the end of the day, the AI is not more than a tool, but the special thing of this tool is that it can do mental tasks that before can only be done by humans.

And that's a BIG change.

Even if the AI only reaches the human intelligence level, the AI does not sleep, does not need to rest, no need of food, does not die and can travel from one office to the other by the speed of light.

We cannot compete.
Then buy different games? There are so many games out there, you don't have to buy from the sleaziest, profit-whoring of them.

N++, Papers Please, Geometry Dash, Return of the Obra Dinn, Ori and the Blind Forest, 1001 Spikes, Hollow Knight, the list goes on. Then you have things like The Talos Principle, which does have DLC, but it's many hours long, or Humble and their bundles and monthlies, or that Lichess and Pokemon Showdown are legitimately completely free.

The Playdate looks like a fun toy, but it's vastly more of a cash grab than the games I play regularly.
The link between Mozart, geometry, and morality was a theme at the time when the technical people of the day worked in guilds, which formed a kind of continuity of civil society while the politics of the time played out. While he was creating music, these technical and increasingly social guilds and confraternities had recently (by decades) consolidated into the fraternal organization that became freemasonry.

e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mozart_and_Freemasonry

In the OP article, that someone could find an emphasis on themes like relief and truth veiled in allegory should not be a surprise. There is a lot of depth and prior art around using geometric concepts to illustrate moral principles that goes back to Greek cults of Pythagoras and others. Is it scientific? Not really, but as a way to encode and reference knowledge, geometry is the most permanent and universally understood system in which to preserve it.
Yeah, if the crank charged the device, it would have been an instant buy for me.
People discount the economic value of nature. The bees are a perfect example of this.

Yes we could come up with some automated polinator machine, but treating it like an engineering problem is insane! Nature has had 10000s of years to adapt to specific functions. The notion that a team of starry-eyed engineers can do a better job is egotistical and dangerous.

There is an excellent documentary from the 90s that lays this out in no uncertain terms: https://www.nfb.ca/film/whos_counting/
It's both difficult and not. It depends on the persons. There are many Koreans that are easily identifiable as Korean, and many Japanese easily identifiable as Japanese. And there are some that are hard to tell apart.
Korg KO2S. It's a synthesizer, but in a rather unusual package (so if you're looking for something with a piano keyboard, look elsewhere). It's a huge amount of fun and you can at least to some extent write proper music on it. It's also for what it is capable of very inexpensive.
Maybe they meant credit card interchange fees of 1-3%?
They want to continue mass publicizing the attacks, allowing them to continue their often hostile foreign policy, while minimizing the anger locals feel that could cause domestic issues. Not much of s surprise.
It's not a perfect alignment but it's close enough: the key point is that you can generate the power without long-distance distribution requirements (which is a source of waste in the current model) with a considerable comfort margin.

In the example I mentioned, San Diego has (IIRC) three long-distance interconnects and building more is extremely difficult because the routes are generally full of homeowners who will sue you. You don't need to power every AC unit in San Diego completely off of solar the entire day — just enough to keep the total draw well below the capacity limits of that network avoids the prospect of brownouts or blackouts, and it would cut the number of times they have to pay industrial customers to reduce usage for a few hours.
I find the UK gov unbelievably sneaky. The NSA, China and Russia get most of the publicity, meanwhile the UK spies are very hard at work out of sight behind a facade of PR.
I thought about doing it, but I can't do it from a phone on a train.
Your comment seems completely rational but ignores that we have science refuting your opinion. Not only that, the research on this comes from different branches of science that all converge on the same conclusions.

I suggest you do a little more reading on the topic. Storms of My GrandChildren is an easy place to start.

And as always if you have a good source that disputes climate science I would really appreciate a reference.
Same as sibling comments, and I would add that if you’re interested in modular fun, there is now a Volca Modular and in a slightly more expensive bracket, the Behringer Neutron has a ton of features for the money.
What the Mthfr Gene Means for Vaccines
You're making this about republicans vs democrats. No idea why. My whole point is that politicians on both sides of the aisle are terrible and one of the reasons we have terrible politicians is because the general populace doesn't vote for them for the right reasons. Ad campaigns shouldn't be as effective as the are. Corruption is easily seen, it should be punished by the voters. The vast majority of the voting public is willfully ignorant.
Like most VC-funded startups, they have a huge staff of people whose job it is to promote Patreon and manage larger accounts.
Really excited for this new feature!

Would the sponsorship be a subscription model or can you also do a one time payment donation?
I'm actually taking the point of view from the nationals, as you call it. With people coming from other places on earth the area I'm currently living in became a good place to live. I got the nicest next-door neighbours it's possible to imagine, for example. My wife cried when they moved to another place (to get more space). The city center is also a vastly more dynamic and interesting place to be than it used to be back when everything was monotone. Back when the only non-native language you could hear was a little bit of English, and the occasional tourists from nearby countries. Now there are more than a hundred languages spoken here. It works fantastically well, but it demands that you avoid creating ghettos for immigrants, as has been the unfortunate expericence of some cities elsewhere in Europe.

"Crisis actors" - for real, this time around!
Here's a concrete example.

When you interview at Google, I think you're told 'dress as you're comfortable'. But really that's bad advice, as if you're most comfortable in a suit and wear that you're going to be getting it wrong.

It would be more fair if they said 'most people wear jeans and hoodies'. 'Wear whatever you want' is what they want to be but not the reality. 'Wear a hoodie' is the reality.
State socialism/communism.

Everything is provided, decided, controlled, influenced, reviewed, rethought by and via the state (in some representation, the party, the government, the local government, some group or other, an official, someone with connections, the police, or even just a faceless automated system/website/machine). This reminds people that everything is temporary, effort is futile, etc. This makes people simply not care much about common stuff. (Environment, roads, streets, houses, etc.)

Source, I'm from a post-soviet country, and we're dealing with huge swaths of the population who are still very much thinking like this.

AGI Co-learning changes the dynamic significantly. If human beings could co-learn, then I think the analogy to AGI would hold a lot better.
I created a poll a while ago which unfortunately didn't attract much attention. But with N=8, most HNers have bullshit jobs.

Uncover Breathtaking Unesco Patrimony in Greece
I have had a lot of success with the Pomadoro method. 25 minutes work, 5 minute break, then start over.
Also bonus tip: I’ve worked in open offices for years and this year switched to wearing foam ear plugs instead of listening to music, and it’s a night and day difference in productivity for me. It takes a couple of days to get used to and people will just start talking to you but everyone eventually learns you have ear plugs in. I actually built a device for that specific problem for headphones:
https://github.com/joer14/hackers-doorbell

I still sometimes listen to music, but now when I do I realize how distracted it can make me and I only utilize it when I’m warming up or losing steam and need a mental change of scenery.
Another pernicious article to drill down in public opinion that "there is a risk and they cannot be trusted".

This is public opinion manipulation on a vast scale.
I very much doubt that the people responsible for temperature control are aware of the empirical thermal comfort models from 1960. My prediction is that almost none of them have any idea that the study exist or what it says.

I contrast I suspect those people to be fully aware of the cost of running the temperature control system and if the CEO/manager of the company want it to be right now warmer or colder in their room. The resulting temperature is then the balance between costs and the willingness to make the CEO/manager happy.
I'm definitely torn on this one, I hope you're right. Part of me thinks it's a combination of things though, also remember what the article this comment was on indicates. IQs are dropping in developed countries.
Here is a demo video:

I think this is precisely the opposite of true.

"Functioning brain" is normally synonymous with critical thinking skills in conversations like this. If you've been brainwashed then you've had critical thinking skills intentionally eroded from you by a third party (in regards to something specific usually).

In context of the UK and especially in the context of brexit you are dealing with a population that has had 3 decades(!!) of anti-eu propaganda (majority of which are literal lies[0]) from the entire newspaper industry (and also by governments/ministers wishing to blame their own failures on an externality) with no refutation from any other authority. This is the very definition of brainwashing and I think it's actually amazing that 49% of the population saw through it.

I can only imagine transit authorities are being vague on purpose so as not to popularize this particular vector of attack.
> There is nationality and ethnicity. Those are two different things.

Thank you! This whole top-level comment thread is just conflating the two.
It seems to mostly be a propaganda article in the sense that I've never seen a statistical analysis supporting "Go down the list of high IQ individuals and what you'll mostly find is rather mediocre people with a few highly interesting quirks".

That points out an interesting human bias problem about identifying intelligence, we're really good at dehumanizing our enemies, political, or whatever else, so presumably a theoretical AI not coincidentally matching the observers arbitrary standards of religion or politics or maybe even fashion would be viciously attacked as not being intelligent regardless of actual performance.

Oceania has always been at war with Eastasia, therefore this AI is obviously not intelligent.
Your explanation was a lot clearer than mine.
