Extremely hoppy ≠ extremely bitter. A lot of hops have floral, citrus or tropical fruit flavors and aromas. It’s why hazy IPAs have become so popular; they tend to use more of those kind of hops rather than the bittering varieties and end up juicy and balanced, rather than having overwhelming bitterness.

When is a Startup ready to start growing their audience and user base?
Hi all,

I was here thinking, when is a Startup ready to start growing their audience and user base? After their seed round? After more mature rounds like Series A?

Until then what do they do? Product development and talk to potential users?

I was wondering, not all startups are equal. Some get out from YC ready to explode, others keep on stealth mode some more months/years, and others simply die.

What do you think?
Ask HN: What are some recent greenfield projects made in PHP?
I think modern PHP has improved in strides, and now isn't much worse than JavaScript. While it's not my first language of choice to go to anymore, I liked working with it. I didn't hate the language so much as the messy codebases I worked with it. And I would like to see what newer software is being made with PHP in a more modern way.
If you're interested in offering a paid version of this API with no extra work, let me know. I think it'd be interesting to consider what additional features your users might pay for.

Nah, create-react-app and others could easily pin dependencies of libraries they install in your new project to known-good versions.

Without doing that bit of diligence, this type of issue should be 100% expected.
> Time is one of them, space (or area on earth’s surface) is another, and energy is a third

I would combine the last two and call them "mass" and that currency is just an abstraction for how much mass you "own".

> The most common trade is when a person can trade their time and their body’s energy.

With this example I would say they are trading time and sometimes mass. They are trading time by the duration they work for and in certain jobs taking time off the years of their life. They may also move somewhere for a job even though they don't like the place and they spend their time in an non-ideal location.

They mass comes into effect when they are using their own car and gas to get to work, if they have to pay for their own work clothes, etc.

First-- and I'm sure you weren't suggesting this, but I feel I need to mention-- it's extremely dangerous to pressurize a person's lungs above the surrounding environment[1]. Not to mention that pressurizing the inside of the throat could pressurize the middle ear and blow out your eardrums.

Second, I'm not a physician, I'm a physicist. What follows is for curiosity's sake.

I suspect that the goal is to maximally enrich the patient's airstream in oxygen, whenever it is that they happen to breathe in. In a patient with fluid-filled alveoli, the surface area available for diffusion of oxygen into the bloodstream is greatly diminished. Additionally, the distance that oxygen needs to diffuse before it reaches hemoglobin is increased: rather than just the lining of alveoli and capillaries, it has to first dissolve into the fluid gunk filling the space, then diffuse through the fluid, then pass through the lining of the alveolus and capillary. To top it off, water doesn't have great solubility for oxygen, and atmospheric air is mostly nitrogen anyways.

Each of these passive transport phenomena occurs at a rate that depends on the gradient (roughly...) of available O2. This concentration is greatest in the air, and lowest in the bloodstream adjacent to the alveoli, where hemoglobin binds up oxygen. One way to increase the rate of dissolution and diffusion is to increase the concentration gradient. That means enriching the airstream in O2.

If you're talking about overpasses in general, I can see how car underpasses are more time efficient. I assume pedestrian over/under passes are cheaper to build.

Regarding Vegas, it doesnt seem like crosswalks are more efficient, especially from the perspective of the driver. 1) Large intersections with crosswalks tends to have people linger in the middle of the street. This delays the flow of traffic. 2) Right turns are much slower. 3) People who jaywalk. This can be easily observed in Vegas at major hotels. Cars are always struggling to turn into the hotel with large crowds of people trying to cross regardless of the color of the light.

That said, I agree with another poster that crosswalks are optimized to force you into hotels/shops and are subpar.
I'm a novice in this area but if your project relies on a bunch of external node packages why wouldn't you download them all and host them locally or add them to version control?
So it's $5 less expensive, but it's slower, doesn't offer cheaper versions or other configurations.

Please remind me why I'd ever go for this one?

It's not like we're going around incubating healthy people -- you have to be pretty sick to get put on a ventilator.

Yeah I don’t disagree with that but it’s a separate problem IMO. Americans don’t give a shit because if we lose our job we’re fucked, the government doesn’t give a shit about us, we’re stressed and worried all the time about things Europeans take for granted. The quality of life in the US is horrible. And if it were better people would be more capable of organizing and speaking the truth. But the truth has just been squashed in the interest of the ultra wealthy.
Not everyone would use it, that's my point. The inertia behind the existing system is too great, especially in enterprise. All that would happen is that library would become just another Node package, and then you've got the "n+1 standards" problem.

The "nonexistent standard library" wasn't a problem in the days when javascript development meant getting JQuery and some plugins, or some similar library. It only became a problem after the ecosystem got taken over by a set of programming paradigms that make no sense for the language.

Yes, in my mind you'd have to change everything from the ground up, starting with no longer using javascript outside of the browser.

> Are people using values to mean interests?

This was a mistake I made in my 20s. No, values are not interests. Values are things like "would this person stab me in the back, given opportunity?". That can happen in sport, job, anywhere.

From long-term perspective, just like you lose most work-friends when you change your work, you lose most of your hobby-friends when you change a hobby or simply not have enough time for the hobby anymore. Values seem to stay for much longer time.
Perhaps, but I think the JS ecosystem encourages dependency explosion like no other. Looking at a 6 or 7 year old lazily written Rails app, with a lot of functionality written throughout the years, I see about 200 gems. Creating an empty app with create-react-app, it has about 1000 packages.
> IANAL, but betting half a million dollars on three hand gestures qualifies as excessive imho.

To you it may be, but where do you draw the line though? Is $100,000 excessive? $10,000? $1,000? Tbh, $1,000 does actually sound excessive to me.
It definitely works but the flavor is different (not in a good way, just different) and it’s super high sodium.
By doing that they would avoid this issue, for sure. They would also introduce security issues by using old versions.

When I covered IT hardware companies on Wall Street, I heard Apple's CFO say that his company could release a $799 computer "but we don't want to".

Around the same time, at an investor dinner with the Dell CFO, an attendee asked how sales were of a $299 computer on Dell's print catalog cover. The CFO replied, "the problem with advertising a $299 computer is that people want to buy it".
create-react-app was broken a couple of weeks ago when I tried to use the Typescript template. Some dependency in Jest had been changed to require a version of Typescript that had only been out for a few weeks, breaking everything (including create-react-app) that hadn't updated to the latest tsc. What an ecosystem.
These drives don't even support TRIM. So I think as far as they're concerned, once the drive is filled, every write is a rewrite no matter the exact workload. I think the concept of drop-in, device-managed SMR, but let's try to hide that is nowhere near as good as what's possible with host management in terms of the write load it can sustain.
And everyone who depends on projects that pin their dependency versions gets to be victims of security exploits long after they are fixed.

Someone somewhere is going to organize a series of JS packages with the continuity of a standard library and full of verification and tests. Sane versioning, consistent interfaces and so on. The npm ecosystem isn't bad it's just unwieldy successful.
This analogy doesn't hold up at all.

The UHH is a fun read, yes, but the biggest real-world problem with the Unix Wars was cross-compatibility. Your Sun code didn't run on Irix didn't run on BSD and god help you if a customer wanted Xenix. OK, you can draw some parallel here between React vs. Vue vs. Zeit vs. whatever.

But there was also the possibility, for non-software businesses, to pick a platform and stick to it. You run Sun, buy Sun machines, etc. That it was "Unix" didn't matter except to the software business selling you stuff, or what kind of timelines your in-house developers gave.

There is no equivalent in the JS world. If you pick React, you're not getting hurt because Vue and React are incompatible, you're getting hurt because the React shit breaks and churns. Every JavaScript community and subcommunity has the same problem, they keep punching themselves in the face, for reasons entirely unrelated to what their "competitors" are doing. Part of this is because the substrate itself is not good at all (way worse than Unix), part is community norms, and part is the piles of VC money that caused people to hop jobs and start greenfield projects every three months for 10 years rather than face any consequences of technical decisions.

Whatever eventually hollows out the mess of JS tech will be whatever figures out how to offer a stable developer experience across multiple years without ossifying. (And it can't also happen until the free money is gone, which maybe has finally come.)
Edit: oops, I confused ferroelectricity with ferromagnetism. This comment is about the latter... not strictly related to the article, although there’s at least some similarity between the effects.

I’ve been wondering if the ferromagnetic effect could be used to make mid-scale integrated logic devices at home. CMOS devices (and really just anything which depends on PN junctions) are notoriously difficult to manufacture outside of a controlled setting and often require dangerous chemicals. On the other hand, the ferromagnetic effect works on a macro scale (read: hobbyist-friendly) with fewer process steps and friendlier materials for the most basic implementations.

You can make memory devices out of it from just two materials — a toroid-shaped ferromagnetic “core” (e.g. nickel) and a wire running through the core (which can be used to polarize the core, or to read its polarization). That’s core memory, used extensively after the era of vacuum tubes but before the era of flash or silicon-based memories.

To my knowledge it was never used much for logic, but the row + column select of a core memory circuit perform an AND operation, and if you search around you can find at least a few papers proposing combinatorial logic based on those ferromagnetic cores.

It’s two materials (a ferromagnetic material and a conductor), it’s something that was actually used for a decade in industry (core memory), and you can get to 1 MHz even with macro-scale devices. Ferromagnetic devices seem like a hobbyist’s dream! The biggest missing link seems to be a way to automate their manufacturing, since threading wire through a thousand cores to make a multiplier sounds too tedious for me.
Yes, I remember double-spaces between sentences from "Typing" class in Junior High School (you know, before they even offered anything called "Computer Science").

I assure you there are lots of stupid people in the military who are racist, and "the shared values and commitment to public service" is not nearly as inherent in government as Parks and Recreation would have you believe. Remember, in his full time job he also worked for the Federal Government. In the VA, no less. You'd think that the employees of the VA would have the highest level of commitment to public service and the highest understanding of what it means to be a successful leader in the military, (and for that matter the highest amount of care for the health of veterans), but, that doesn't seem to really be the case.

Or that all gambling should be banned, because there is a chance that some bets might be irrational? None of those viewpoints seem to make any kind of sense, as far as I can see?

What I find really funny is that the current American far left, who are very vocal about any kind of racial inequality towards Blacks and Latinos, are the ones most vocal in their support for affirmative action.

They don't see it as racist at all, but actually they believe they're supporting the fair and moral choice and patting themselves on the back for being such virtuous people. They only care about the end goal, which is equity not equality, and it's clear that any method used to get there is fine by them.

It's absolutely sickening the delusion and hypocrisy these people have. Their principles are not set in stone, like holding a set of ideas that must be applied similarly across differing situations, but rather, their supposed principles, like tools, are selectively used or ignored for particular situations that they stand to benefit or lose from.
