From my perspective, you also do a poor job of communicating with newcomers. It is not readily clear what this is and why they should be interested and the language is intimidating for an outsider/non-programmer.

If it were my website, I would remove the descriptors under your big links for Features, Install, Quickstart and Contribute. They add no real value and are just visual clutter, which is a problem when delivering information-dense content. In fact, I would remove the giant unicorn head in the very valuable above-the-fold section to make space for those four links, minus the extraneous descriptors. (Edit: By descriptors, I mean the part where you say extra stuff like "Yes. Do this." I don't mean the four one-word labels listed above.)

I would also remove "via" and "or" from your section indicating how people can provide financial support. I would either say "Support:" or "We take" or have no extra words and just post the three payment links.

Also, if there is already some collection somewhere online of stories about people who have used this, I would link to it somewhere in this sentence:

I feel like this misses the point.

People dislike Facebook and other centralized platforms not because they're centralized per-se, but because the user experience is terrible (due to mismatched incentives - these platforms make money off ads, so their only objective is to make you engage with the ads as much as possible).

The solution is a platform that doesn't have these mismatched incentives (either paid for, ran by donations, etc) but that otherwise has the user experience of the mainsteam platforms.

This reads like a tech demo where the tech and decentralization is the selling point, but the truth is, the masses don't know/care about that and rightfully so. The same applies to Mastodon and similar projects.
> why companies as big as AMD do not invest and build what they need in house?

Often it is an expertise thing, especially when buying smaller companies. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acqui-hiring

With larger purchases like this one that can still be part of the equation, though there is also the matter of lead times needed to bring a significant team and related infrastructure needed for the project(s) online and up to speed.

Also if a company is seen as ripe for buying, it can sometimes be done in part to stop a competitor getting a chance at the above advantages.

I suspect a mix of all three is at play here.

Ask HN: Do you need help landing a remote Python job?
Hi

I am in the process of building a newsletter which curates the most appealing remote jobs across Europe for Python developers.

There's quite a few sources which currently lists some decents jobs. However, these sources are targetted towards a wider market creating a lot of noise that needs to be filtered along with multiple sources.

I am looking to acquire some initial users before I launch my newsletter in order to validate my idea, let's help each other out if -

1. You are a Python developer on the lookout or open to considering remote opportunities.

2. You don't want to spend time filtering through all the noise and just want quality and focused opportunities delivered straight to your inbox.

Does this sound appealing? Visit https://www.getrevue.co/profile/pyremote
> I don't think anyone ever said "Let's use C# because I like it."

Then let me be the first :) I have advocated for C# at previous workplaces because of this, and I use C# + .NET Core for some side projects - on linux and mac, not even with any windows involved.
Also, this kind of profiler is great because you can use it on any running Python program, which is pretty magical and very useful. (especially when it's an application you didn't write)

But it's not right for every use case: by design austin/py-spy can only really profile the whole program, and if you want to profile a specific function or endpoint in your program, something like PyInstrument https://github.com/joerick/pyinstrument (which includes Django middlewares & Flask decorators) is a lot more useful.
I'm hoping/expecting a chip that goes into the Epyc/SP3 socket and has the memory & PCIe & socket crossconnect as hard IP but the CPU cores replaced with programmable logic. If you have a use case for FPGAs, it's more likely you want it in a concentrated form like this... not on low-end or desktop systems :/

If I remember correctly, there was something similar back in the early HyperTransport days...
You can also replace it with Edge or Firefox.

Ok, I don't want to start a language war again, when I say types, I mean the modern reference to the word that it has a static type system. Indeed, Lisp languages are strongly typed but I'm sorry, in the real world it doesn't help me, I need types, statically checked types.

I don't know if Lisp, the language, influenced Java and Scala so much, it was more about its runtime, the garbage collector, etc. The only thing that I liked about Lisp is the composabiltiy, and coupled with objects from Simula created my favorite industrial languages, Java and TypeScript. I'm passionate about parsers, compilers and transformers and this is why I have a fost spot for SML, OCaml. I simply dislike Lisp, interesting language but not for me.

For me, it is probably more the toolset and ease of deployment of C#-based apps that keep me using it, even for side projects. I love working with Python, but it is a pain to deploy once you get beyond console-based apps. You have be able to setup NGINX, configure systemctl, set the right permissions, configure WSGI, etc...

> It is unlikely that you will beat the market in the long run and if you do, it may well be down to chance, but it is possible, because the market is not perfect.

Sure, I should have phrased my claim more carefully: You cannot beat the market consistently every year. Beating it by chance is irrelevant when what you're looking for are sustainable, continuous profits.

> A lot of institutional investors are long-only. That is their mandate. All the information they may have does not change that fact.

There are also lots of institutional investors that are involved in day trading. My claim merely was that: 1) There are enough of them for new information to get priced in faster than average private individuals could take advantage of them on a consistent basis. 2) Private individuals are not likely to beat institutional day traders.

> Efficient market hypothesis is nonsense.

As with all real-world applications of science, the match between theory and practice is not perfect. IMO it is good enough, though. If it were possible to foresee stock prices on a consistent basis, then we'd see tons of successful investors. I have yet to hear of an investor or a fund manager, though, who consistently beats the market. All instances where an investor has been able to do that over, say, a 10-year period can be explained by statistical outliers. (In the sense that, yes, there will always be outliers but unfortunately, it's impossible to predict who it's going to be and how long their run is going to last. There are countless fund managers who were successful for a number of years, only to be very unsuccessful during the following years.)

> Furthermore, you can not "buy the market" in the first place. You can buy ETFs replicating stock indices, but that is not the same. If you bought the S&P you will have performed differently than if you had bought MSCI world.

That's true, I was being a bit sloppy here. I was referring to MSCI-like indices as, compared to smaller indices, they minimize risk due to additional diversification and still yield higher profits on average. (This is the usual paradox: diversification usually leads to lower risk and higher profits. It's the only free lunch you'll ever get.)

> Ultimately, stock picking is just a less diversified version of buying an index.

Sure, but in contrast to stock picking, there are 140 years of world market history backing the claim that long-term investments (over at least ~15-20 years) in "the" world market (i.e. MSCI-like indices) will, on average, yield profits in the order of 4-8% p.a., depending on what exactly your definition of "world market" is. There is no such data supporting investments in single stocks.

From my perspective in our effort to build our machine learning platform[0], I have to look at things in terms of impact on our capacity to execute projects faster in a more repeatable way, and help our data scientist colleagues.

I keep an eye on new things, but also notice and ask them about what they use and how, then work these frameworks into our platform without compromising flexibility.

This of course comes with some frustrations when you do actual projects that involve more than one person, and where documentation that starts with "first, download your dataset to disk" becomes off-putting.

For example, we look at how to use PyTorch with S3 object storage, and you stumble on threads where technical support staff tells the asker to find examples on the internet.[1]

This brings us to try and find ways to make it work on larger datasets in the context of our platform. This is not particular to PyTorch, though the support thread is hilarious. Looking for ways to use object storage with Tensorflow wasn't obvious. The docs show how you could use files giving a path string, but you have to dig a bit deeper in the source code to become aware you could give it a file-like object, and then you have to get the bytes from somewhere, wrap it, and give it to the function that consumes data. Sure, there's the `file_io`, but again, it is not super obvious and you have to inherit that to simplify usage and reduce the "activation energy" for data scientists.

This is generally true for other parts of the pipeline, and is a reason why we don't buy into the hype of "end-to-end" machine learning or "complete lifecycle management" announcement at conferences.

For example, we do automatic model detection from code and log the models and parameters with MLflow for now so that data scientists don't have to remember or know how to. It's all done for them. MLflow has documentation on the ability to "deploy" these models. However, it breaks when these models expect higher-dimensional input (tensors) and expects a DataFrame, so we're looking into pandas' MultiIndex and things like that[2]. But this shows how something that is obvious and common in the real world lacks support, or worse, the issue is closed by an intern who doesn't see how it is a problem, which has happened, or a bot automatically closing the issue.

We reach out to people to see how they are doing things, and they reply that they write custom code to handle these cases that are not edge cases. And for us, who are working precisely to reduce "custom code" so people can train, track, deploy, monitor, and manage models consistently, reliably, and systematically, this is not good enough and drives us to solve these problems without relying on our proposed changes to be merged into the main tree or forking the repo and having to maintain that fork and conflicts.

The article says the parents limit this high-risk stock picking to 10-15% of their portfolio.

Edit: Excerpt:

>> My mom assured me that she’s started reading up on stock valuation, and only buys 20 or 30 shares at a time. She gauges that 15% to 20% of her wealth is in day trading, leaving the bulk of it in her tried-and-true index and retirement funds.

>>My dad, having gotten into the game later, has only about 10% of his money in short-term trades. In the unlikely case that he loses it all, which he doubts would happen, it wouldn’t be financially devastating.

Edit 2: And yes, in fairness, since they're just "gauging" it and might not keep rigorous track of the actual values, it could be a huge underestimate. But still, not "goodbye inheritance".

Google bragged when they were new, that it was better than other search engines ("portals") because it just had the search text field and 2 buttons, and no articles with pictures and attention-grabbing headlines in their home page.
