I'm looking for work as a full stack or frontend software engineer due to COVID-19 related lay-offs. My strengths are in JavaScript and React; I'd also gladly welcome the chance to work with React Native again. I have prior experience teaching and enjoy mentoring, documenting processes, and discussing product improvements. Thanks for taking the time to read through this.
It's always strange when the first you hear of something is it's announcement of closure.
Another recommendation: DKBtrace, which is a predecessor to Povray, has easier to grok code. IMHO.
If you are going to a bike shop once a year for maintenance, then you are doing the maintenance you should be doing.

But many people have old bikes with rusty brakes, non-working gearing, and just go on using them until they fall apart.

Also, different bikes require different levels of maintenance. And your riding style and frequency of use affects the speed of wear.
For most, business is not about being consistent or logical, it's about being profitable.
HN rules say to post the original source. This is a rare case where the tweet is the original source.
Automakers aren’t against them selling direct, dealers are. And it’s illegal for automakers to do so because automakers tried to kill dealers earlier on and take over the sales channels dealers built out. Plus for communities, it’s more beneficial than they’re locally owned versus all of the money flowing out.
i don’t know what the automakers’ stance was or is but i believe the organizations that have fought direct sales have been the national and state dealership associations.
Here's a list of in-depth blog posts of the Cliqz journey and tech:

I doubt your story. Disc brake pads do wear out, especially if you ride very hard. The same is true for chain and cassette.
It is a shame that the author didn't say more (anything?) about the positive sides of the office related to social bonds. I miss seeing my coworkers face to face. I am tired of the weird conversational dynamics that arise from minor delays in transmission. I miss a number of things that are directly related to being physically present.
Euler's FizzBuzz
> Blockchain is an append-only database. It does not create sovereign citizens.

Telecommunications push bits over a wire or the ether. They do not create "cyber spaces". My point is: There are some interesting applications of these funny distributed systems that do lots of work to maintain an increasingly-consistent cryptographically-secured append-only shared state. Your statement is a bit too reductionist.

Frankly I'm surprised to read this kind of thing on Hacker News. I suppose the days of zeal for revolutionary self-sovereignty are truly over:

> Governments of the Industrial World, you weary giants of flesh and steel, I come from Cyberspace, the new home of Mind. On behalf of the future, I ask you of the past to leave us alone. You are not welcome among us. You have no sovereignty where we gather.

> This is our world now... the world of the electron and the switch, the beauty of the baud.
Further proof that even the large VC firms won't put somebody on a plane to Paris or Detroit. Even for something as huge as Nuxt.

If you're not willing to travel to the Valley it's really like you don't exist. I've been using Nuxt for some time and I am really impressed with it.
You're still pushing this false dichotomy that you can either surf social media or beat yourself to death. You're arguing against a straw man.
Really depends on how much riding you do and the components on the bike. Back when I was younger and more fit and riding 100+ miles a week I did a lot of maintenance. Some of it was necessary like adjusting brake pads, cables that developed slack, etc. Some of it probably wasn't but gave me an excuse to tinker.

Now I'm riding less, I find I don't need to do as much except keep the chain clean and tires inflated. I still check cables, chain slack, and stuff but they tend to need less work now.
They do seem to have an export feature[1]. The dashboard has been "Loading trips..." for minutes to download into a CSV a measly number 2K trips I had.

I'm sorry that people are losing jobs over such closure, but usually the writing is on the wall.

Hi. I'm one of the engineers that was working on Cliqz browsers. My focus was on the iOS one recently. All browser code was always open, you can find it on Github.

iOS - https://github.com/cliqz/user-agent-ios

Android - https://github.com/cliqz-oss/browser-android

Android (NextGen, was planned for release next month) - https://github.com/cliqz/daisy

Destkop - https://github.com/cliqz-oss/browser-f

There is much more on our Github organizations:

We loved OSS at Cliqz, it was a part of the company culture and ultimate proof how private our products were.

Year 2000. You don't know a lot, and I guess you didn't have a look on the PovRay's hall of fame.
Same. The headline made it sound like dealerships had a bunch of cars already ordered, and were caught dumping them in the ocean because they weren't selling enough inventory to make room for the newer cars.
Here's a terrifying secret for you: if a dataset is small enough and used intensively enough, SQL databases like PostgreSQL will eventually have all of it in RAM. Better ditch those too!
Also, the annual repair costs are probably assuming you have someone else do them. I think that's a reasonable expectation for most people, but it can be quite a bit less if you can do some of them yourself. I'm pretty sure I average less than $50/year for all maintenance costs for about 2000 miles of commuting.
Is there any current research to look at the interplay in some US domestic foreign influence campaigns and stoichastic mass shooting events in the US and Canada?

It seemed like there was a qualitative shift in the last decade to people who have been radicalized online and it seems to 1) have overlap with groups targeted for social influence campaigns like those documented in 2016 and 2) seems to have gotten pushed from a top down level also with the Russian funding and coordination (Torshin, Butina). It's very regrettable that the latest shooting seems to have be in part because the murderer was able to acquire semiautomatic high velocity rifles in the US (https://apnews.com/aeec329e92569a7b1bbdc44bc6aa2fa2) and it would be interesting to trace how he was able to get the information necessary how to acquire them and from whom.

It is strange - absent some coordinating mechanism - that armed protesters are acting in unison in multiple states against covid-19 quarantines and restrictions.
Hrm, I guess I should've looked into them a bit more during the Firefox-Cliqz debacle. I still think it was the wrong move for Mozilla BUT it's also sad that we lost another player in search engine diversity.

I also wonder what will happen to Ghostery, considering they were acquired by Cliqz :/

No, you could always look at cars online, what auto makers didn't like about Tesla was their lack of dealerships. The auto sellers regulatory captured a bunch of states decades ago; and now you can't buy cars directly from the manufacturer.

If another electric vehicle player tried to get in the game today, I'm sure Tesla join the lobby against them using the same argument.
Other languages break compatibility or soft-deprecate things more often.
For me, an expat is somebody who temporarily works abroad for, say, 2 or 3 years, with company housing allowance, expat COLA allowance etc. In the US, this is often reflected by their L1 visa.

An immigrant is somebody who moves to a different country and works for a local company (which might be the same one as the one they worked for in their home country) with a local salary and benefits.

Expats often transition into immigrants.

Being a citizen is not a part of the equation. I've been an immigrant for decades, but I'm not a US citizen.
Farming Today. Driving a Tractor
50 bucks is more than most of my bikes are worth. ;-)

But seriously I think that most bikes are within 50 bucks of being rideable. I tinker with a lot of old bikes, for family, friends, and at one time for a charity program. At least in the US, a huge fraction of bikes are gathering dust or rust, but the tires are flat, there's no pump in the house, some of the mechanisms are stuck, they haven't been properly adjusted for comfort, etc. Many of the bikes weren't properly built in the first place, and need attention to things like spoke tension and bearing adjustment. And the owners aren't handy with tools.

A bit of lube, air in the tires, and maybe a reassurance from the mechanic at a shop, and some accessories such as a pump, will have the bike up and running. At the very least it will help the shops stay afloat.

If the subsidy kicks in all at once for a lot of people, it could trigger a noticeable increase in bike use, which has a crowd psychology benefit.

For everybody, my consistent advice is that your experience with any kind of cycling will be greatly improved by becoming self sufficient for at least routine maintenance and minor repairs.
From what I've read, apple and google appear to be working on rolling out APIs for contact tracing on their platforms, and apps you explicitly install are supposedly just the first stage, with later in-platform functionality presumably to come with regular OS updates. So It might not always be a deliberate choice made by users in the future, for good or ill.

[Note on Location: The team is mostly in Seattle but is becoming more distributed with COVID19, I doubt it will ever go back so we're willing to try long term remote or being based out of another office if the fit is right and you can work Seattle times.]

AWS Dev Tools builds the tools that we all use for software development and CI/CD ... at least some of them :-). I'm leading a team (CodeStar) of impassioned developers trying to re-invent how we create, release, and iterate on software quickly and safely.

We're looking for engineers to build this out! If you have experience with different languages (Python, Go, Java, Node, etc...), different platforms (Linux, iOS/Android, MacOS, Web Apps), different workflow tools (JIRA, Circle CI, Pivotal Tracker, etc...), different organizations (startups, enterprises, governments, universities), I'd like to hear from you.

I come from a startup background and the rest of the team is made of people with varied skills - you will learn ALOT here. I'm also interested in talking to Product Managers or UX people with a background in tools for building and shipping software.

3+ years of professional experience are required for these roles and leadership opportunities are available.

an ODB port device, which connects with bluetooth to your phone.

It records how gas-efficient your driving is, as well as beeping when you go over 80 mph or have a hard break.

It tried to gamify your driving behavior to be more efficient and safe. And I think it was effective but from the start it's been tied to the cloud.

At the start they'd send weekly reports of driving behavior, congratulating or saying what could be done better. As well as tracking (with location data on the phone) where you drove. I once used it to expense milage for a conference.

However the emails soon stopped coming as frequently or reliably, then a year later when the emails stopped they said they were discontinuing my unit, encouraging me to buy the new one. I did not, as they failed to provide me with the service they promised.

EDIT: to clarify, the phone app would start upon bluetooth connection, and send the data to Automatic. I'm not sure if it was realtime or not.
"at sea" is reasonable and attention grabbing, "in the sea" is just click-bait junk.
It's not even a standalone product, it's part of G Suite.

Any complete business suite has to have videoconferencing.

Do you genuinely think the P/L for G Suite isn't remotely positive, or will be over the next decade?

Remember it's the primary competitor to MS Office, and has been around for nearly a decade and a half at this point.
Good comment, thanks! It's indeed possible to approximate highly complex systems and interactions with generated models surprisingly accurately. But I'm more interested in the lowest possible level of rules and interactions.

In our current universe we are still seeking the "theory of everything" - a model that would explain physics at all levels. Currently it seems that everything breaks down at (sub)quantum level.

But I think that our universe is logical, exact and that all higher level observable interactions are based on some really simple fundamental rules. The problem is that we can't measure or detect those properly. For example Quantum Entanglement is one big issue but yet it is also based on a rule. If the rule is always enforced logically, it doesn't have to comply with the rudimentary model of physics by humans. Perhaps we are too fixed on the idea that light speed is the absolute limit to every interaction? :)

To me it seems unavoidable that the fundamental rules and basic elements of our universe have been purposefully designed. The measured standard model values even imply that those values have been calibrated to those exact values by simulation.

I also believe that our universe is not the only universe (energy in certain 3D area of the void governed by a set of distinct rules for that particular experiment) and that our universe is not the first or the last.

If "intelligence" can be born inside a computer simulation, it's also possible to have "nested universums" where simulated intelligence creates a new virtual universum inside the virtual universum where the intelligence was born in.

A related example would be that a human created AI creates a new better AI system independently and those AI systems can keep evolving and generating new stuff without any human interaction with the system.
This is sad. I used them for some time on one of my computers. Their own index results were quite impressive, for an independent index -- sufficient in maybe 30%-50% cases (my guess and not an actual statistic). But this highlighted how hard it is to build an index that is useful.

My take is if there is to be a political will to break mono- and oligopolies by building alternatives, the EU (or whoever) should do it top-down, at least the indexing infrastructure. It will bureaucratic, likely not financially efficient, but probably some things need to be built this way. I would prefer aggressive market fragmentation, but this is not very politically likely, given how European states like to operate.

From the maker's perspective, I don't see building things with mainly political appeal as a desirable path. (And I'm using the term politics broadly, and not pejoratively -- this includes far more important stuff than tech gadgets, like you know, liberty.) Political decisions of states and individuals are too finicky for business. I think aspiring people should do something fundamentally different than incumbents in terms of functionality. Probably things that don't scale or appeal to megacorps.

Anyway, congrats on what you've done. Without Covid you would surely have a better shot.
I am still amazed that anybody can still make any money in the very low barrier-to-entry business of SEO. Probably the quote of Einstein on human stupidity is literally correct after all. Especially after I fell for the click-baity failory posts again.
well that and it certainly is not just SUVs but that does make for a more click bait title.

If you can get clusters of people to use it, say everyone in a big office building, it's a lot easier to hit that 20-60% number than in the population as a whole.

IMO these apps will be most useful as a tool to assist manual contact tracing teams at first.

Just some 2cent feedback - don't assume anything is known.

The BASIC lesson doesn't mention anything about /g. Having not touched regex in years I had no idea what that was and kept thinking 'why isn't he showing it matching a g if he has that in the example'.
I am from the USA, live in the USA, and have only traveled to Canada occasionally. Nonetheless, as the article points out, I am part of Canada's problem, because mass shootings carried out in Canada use firearms sourced from the USA. This is an important part of how our culture affects other cultures; it's not just us shooting them, but us selling them guns so that they can shoot each other, too.
Yes, that's exactly what happened. Oops.
How Coronavirus Put an Ancient Flour Mill Back to Work
I agree it's a good analogy, but I think you can also use it to illustrate my point.

In your example, the goal of the judge is not to convict whoever is seen on the video. Their goal is to convict whoever commited the crime - and the camera footage may or may not be essential in reconstructing that information.

The fact that A has an identical twin makes the video into less conclusive evidence, but this just means other pieces of evidence are required - it does not change anything about the original crime.

In fact, if A was bragging on Twitter how he is about to commit the crime and no one will be able to prove it was him, the tweets themselves would probably become evidence.

In the same way, I believe (IANAL) two files being byte-for-byte identical is usually strong evidence that one file is a copy of the other in the copyright sense. However, it's neither a necessary criterion, nor strictly speaking even a sufficient one (e.g. in the 4'33 case).
