I think it's the opposite youre saying. As a customer I can always use chargeback if you have any 'friction' about fulfilling my refund. chargeback works with my bank, no matter what stripe or vendor thinks.
It may be more optimal in some sense, but it's reminiscent of how Google Maps sends people through residential neighborhoods during rush hour. Which you may have heard people get unhappy about.

If it works as intended, assuming the demand continues to exceed the overall capacity, it's just going to spread out the overload more.

If you have 200% demand then working on getting from 90% to 99% utilization is missing the forest for the trees.
It sounds like this crisis has been especially frustrating to you and my heart goes out to you.

One of the reasons we decided to release the app was so friends of ours who are immunocompromised could use it.

The ideal scenario would be for grocery stores to switch to curbside/delivery only. I wouldn't be surprised if we saw that happening 6 months from now. None of us know if we are asymptomatic carriers, so we all need to stay out of the public as much as possible.

Our thinking if that if people start using this app, they're staying out of the stores, keeping themselves and the workers safer. Hopefully they can do several weeks worth of shopping at a time, freeing up slots for others.

In the UK, Sainsbury's is limiting curbside and delivery to high risk people. But they're only able to do so because they're getting a list of high-risk people from the government and validating against that list. That isn't really possible for us. https://www.sainsburys.co.uk/shop/gb/groceries/working-to-fe...

Do we support grocery stores in your area? Hopefully this app can help your family, too.
Intel's is roughly "the thermal dissipation required to maintain base clock speeds indefinitely without thermal throttling".

AMD's is roughly "the thermal dissipation required for all-core turbo indefinitely".

In recent generations (since AMD's Zen architecture), AMD is much closer in testing to their published numbers than Intel is.

It is important to note that this is a thermal specification, rather than a power consumption specification. There are processors that exist which can hit their performance numbers without needing any thermal solution, and as such would have an "honest" TDP of 0, despite having a >0 power draw from the wall.
Someone really wants BillGates to sell his human antivirus to us. So much so that ALL other treatments get the old snake oil treatment from media.

We looked into Paddle recently as a possible way of handling the payment mechanics and the tax and compliance issues for a new business. It looked quite promising on both of those fronts.

Then we read their legal terms, found about half a dozen obvious deal-breakers, and lost all interest.
But you can see what state the laptop’s in from across the room.
The PPP program is a loan at favorable interest rates (1%) and a fixed term (2 years). The loan can be entirely forgiven as well, provided certain requirements are met. There is no collateral requirement but you do have to affirm that you are affected by the pandemic, so it sounds like the startup mentioned by OP possibly committed fraud.

Please tell me you're hiring bloom filter / client-side JS search experts. We're on the verge of moving our whole company off ProtonMail because search is unusable.
Many of the stores offering curbside, like Wegmans, are using Instacart shoppers, so it's not taking away store employees per se.
Software development wise, how this whole thing tie into Brooks' Mythical Man-Month "Surgery" approach?
In the end everyone ends up striking a balance between how well they know someone and how much they need their skillset. Most people are only going to know a small number of software engineers, for example.

Also in terms of getting to know whether you can work with someone, it's not as hard as say finding a spouse, where you tend to not even know what you want.

I recently met with a guy with a very similar professional background to myself and I could tell immediately we thought the same way. We definitely qualified each other. I'm sure that kind of thing happens to a lot of experienced professionals.

Hmm I suppose you're right that the mesh generation system could be hiding some of the capability of the lidar. I expected the floating, mid-air meshes seen in the kitchen demo to go away but it could be a software issue.

Windows 10 user with the latest stable build of FF reporting, the website is broken on my end.
Jeez, just go public already! You've had employees waiting for nigh on a decade to realize the value of what they've built, but instead it appears that those gains are just going to VCs (and whoever is privileged enough to take money off the table during these raises).

Perhaps I'm being too cynical, and perhaps Stripe is taking a more enlightened view than I'm giving it credit for, but my goodness this trend of large businesses just raising money forever (and long after they cease being startups) is frustrating. At least at Google I know I can actually spend all of my paycheck at some point in the decade after I've earned it.
How would you know? I just checked a few times and they are always full, at least since the first week, so I gave up. Doesn't tell you anything about who is using it and how.
The point was to get money out fast. Everyone knew it would get into some wrong hands, but the window is small here. Any hope of coming out of this in a few months hinges on getting people support quickly.

And besides, all these small-business loans are exactly that; loans. You can get them forgiven later if you can show that you used it directly for salary. But later is the key word. Get the money out now, worry about forgiveness paperwork later.
As far as I'm aware, Stripe has no tax product comparable to what a merchant of record like Paddle offers. Has this changed?
Really awesome seeing someone talk about skateboarding here on HN as it relates to the subjects covered by Knuth in this article. I grew up skateboarding and I credit the years those years with a huge amount of learning I didn't even know I was doing.

To expand upon what you said: it's amazing when you take that trick, a kickflip for example, and you're so confident in your consistency, that you apply it to something new. Kickflip to rock to fakie, kickflip down a set of stairs, kickflip to 50-50, and so on. The consistency you gain from that trick opens up the door to a whole new world of combinations.

There's so much about skateboarding, the culture (or counter culture in some cases) around it that translate so well to programming/hacking (and life in general). The trials of learning something new. The acceptance and overcoming of failure. The respect you shown and earned when you're at the park and you or someone else puts down a sick trick.

One of my favorite creative minds in skateboarding, Rodney Mullen, talks a bit about the relationship between hacking and skateboarding in his TED talk. [1]

> people with normal immune systems will use these slots out of fear

I sympathize with your situation, and agree that people who are more at risk should get priority, but suggesting that someone with a normal immune system should not use curbside pickup and just suck it up and go in the store is just... not correct. Everyone should be availing themselves of options that reduce their interactions with other people.

I imagine you and people like you are already frustrated as to how difficult it is to get pickup slots. A website like this can perhaps make it easier on you, as well.
That same "special equipment" required to charge the phone - a micro USB cable.

Where downloading a 1GB image or needing an actual computer is prohibitive (eg the developing world), then community will fill the role. If the user really just wants to delete their own data, then rename the current feature to something appropriate rather than the current misleading "factory reset" that doesn't actually do a factory reset.

It's generally fallacious to say that a higher layer needs to be created to make things more "accessible", when that new system just addresses one specific case and punts on most other issues. Taking systematic feedback into account, people not needing a JTAG interface for most phone flashing actually creates a problem whereby these devices get into states that require now-specialized tools and now-arcane knowledge, rather than having been designed as legible/transparent/user-serviceable up front.
It also introduces cultural problems.

In a healthy organizational culture, the org grows steadily at a pace that's not too quickly, and more senior members acculturate new recruits into the organization. Acculturation can't be rushed; it's the process of transferring all the unconscious, tacit knowledge about how and why things are done the way they are, and because it's unconscious, it happens only through long exposure.

When you have a hiring freeze, the existing culture ossifies and becomes more insular without any new blood. And then when the hiring freeze lifts, you usually need to "catch up" on hiring, which means that you have a sudden rush of new recruits and relatively few senior people. The new people don't have enough old hands to acculturate them, which means that they end up forming their own culture that may be entirely divorced from the existing org culture. Because the new culture outnumbers the old, eventually the old hands leave (taking their institutional knowledge with them), and the dominant org culture reflects that which the newbies brought with them.

Google's culture changed dramatically from 2011-2013, driven by the combination of rapid hiring, a new CEO (this may've been deliberate: if you want to change the culture, one way to do it is bring on a lot of people who agree with you), and the departure of key early employees like Craig Silverstein, Amit Patel, Marissa Mayer, et al.

Come to think of it, the U.S's culture wars are largely a result of the "birth dearth" of Gen X. Instead of a continuous shift in culture, you have two "big" generations of Boomers and Millenials and the latter developed a distinctive culture amongst themselves without regards to existing American culture.
I commented this already above so forgive me, but in the UK, Sainsbury's is limiting curbside and delivery to high risk people. But they're only able to do so because they're getting a list of high-risk people from the government and validating against that list. That isn't really possible for us. https://www.sainsburys.co.uk/shop/gb/groceries/working-to-fe...
I agree. but the existence of for-profit healthcare is largely why the US is the only country without public healthcare.

Topographical Influence on Cicada Wing Wettability and Bactericidal Properties
I've taken lots of videos on the racetrack in my car, go-karting, snowboarding, motorcycle riding, scuba diving....

In addition to many of the things noted here (looks slow as hell due to wide-angle lens and the fact that you are, also, slow as hell)... the video editing is just a nightmare.

It's easy to capture a couple hours of footage of your hobby, but unless you ALSO have the hobby of WATCHING a couple hours of something you already did, the value is just not there.

I've watched almost none of the videos I've shot. Also, I'm still able to use my ancient Hero2. I thought of buying a newer model to get the "latest and greatest" as an impulse buy once; I can afford it, that's fine. I looked up a product matrix of the Session, Hero 5, Hero 6, black, silver, whatever products were available at the time. I just stared at the product matrix for awhile, gave up, and closed the browser window.

Honestly, if their product line had less overlap or fewer products or just.. made it easier to decide camera to buy, they'd have another $400 of my money.

shrug

They keep improving their products, but there are no real innovations or killer reasons to buy some new model. And they all basically work good enough.

I've done this myself recently, and it's a worthwhile experience if you have the patience for it.

If the short treatise in the OP interests you, I would suggest the book 'Foundations of Mechanical Accuracy', PDF easily available though I won't link here.

That sounds really interesting, could you please link to more info about this?

TLS doesn't require long-term access. All encryption is session encryption -- data-in-flight. There's no data- or access-loss with key expiry (though there's a potential for data intercept with even session-key compromise). Keysystems such as SSH are similar in this regard.

Encrypted email, and all data-at-rest encryption require long-term key retention and confidentiality. Loss of a key means loss of data. Disclosure of a key means loss of confidentiality.

TLS / data-in-flight is a tremendously simpler problem than email / data-at-rest.

Why not just serve plain HTML pages like C2 wiki used to do. Why use Javascript and Google Analytics. Why ask why.

Fact: It took more work for someone to convert the HTML to JSON, write the Javascript and set up the proxy than it did for me to write a shell script.

Not sure what were the benefit(s) to that person versus the one-time cost of switching away from plain HTML to requiring Javascript. No doubt he deemed it worth the time to set up.

What I do know is the benefit to me versus the one-time cost of writing a shell script. It means I do not need to use Javascript or submit to Google Analytics. I do not even need internet access once I have downloaded the C2 wiki, converted it to text and stored it on local media. If it one day disappears from the web and the IA, I still have a copy. This wiki is a piece of history and it is not changing.

I'd be cautious with this point.

The United States Will Suffer the Most from the Pandemic
Another nit: Maybe we never let the user get to 200% by refusing to charge beyond 150% (internally known as 75%?) ever.

Better yet, all devices, phones, tablets, notebook computers, headphones, speakers, ... should automatically stop charging at about 75% and then continue to run directly off of the wall. I used to think that's what all devices do because that just seems like common sense to me.

We use IIS. I really wanted to use go so, I found a way to run go applications on top of it. That was not fun to figure out, but I can make use of the windows authentication underneath IIS. Required a custom module that forwards some headers to my go applications. Also the version of IIS we use doesn't even support http2 which sucks.

The CARES Act “loan” is structured as a loan in order to (a) enforce the use of funds for payroll expenses, and (b) use existing banking infrastructure. IIRC if you keep 80% of staff, the loan is forgiven.

That said, the PPP ran out of funds today, so not all businesses are getting saved.
What?

Even non-profit, publicly funded hospitals are feeling the squeeze. Most are paid on a fee-for-service basis. If you cancel all your elective surgeries, there goes a huge chunk of funding. Yet you still need to pay salaries and other overhead.

It's not like non-profit hospitals are suddenly immune to the realities of economics.
Open sourcing a GitHub engagement dasbhoard with Superset
They have to go somewhere. Perhaps if a store went to a curbside-only model they'd organize things in the store based on popularity so the people fulfilling orders could be more efficient, but it still takes people working throughout the day to make that happen.
And Tesla does it today, many examples of this in the Model 3. Most directly, the Model 3 Long Range and the Model 3 Long Range Performance are almost entirely exactly the same car, with some firmware differences. The thing is, though, Tesla is proving this is a viable way to extract a profit from the market in the EV space (as others did before in the ICE space) so don't expect it to change. Is it morally wrong? I don't think it really is, this is the manufacturer getting the most out of the market that they can, and that helps fund the great technology those manufacturers are then providing and even allows more people to access the lower-cost versions of the product.
I guess the issue is when you have a front end for multiple services, which is really what GraphQL is for.

It has very little to do with the UX of email encryption, IMO. People don't use encrypted email because the parties who would have to do the work in order to use it have never, and do not know anyone who has ever, suffered a problem that encrypted email would address.

Web sites use encryption because the people who would need to do the work of setting it up know that search rankings, user experience thanks to browser reporting of unencrypted connections, and consumer confidence all suffer if they don't.

And it improves their security in a couple ways too.

For encrypted email, the onus is on the recipient of email to set it up. Such a vanishingly small number of recipients have ever suffered a problem that encryption would solve, it might as well be zero.

We can talk about making the UX better. But unless it's effort-free and happens by default, there's no motivation.

For me, the thing that Discord does really well is having a persistent message history, so I can join a server about a topic, see the pinned posts, read an FAQ channel, and learn a bunch without having to ask a question. That may be improved with IRC now, but at least when I was last using it (wow, 2 decades ago?!) that was a real pain point.
