Yea, I heard about this news and started trying out Bing and was overall satisfied with the results. Was only a bit of light testing for the type of stuff I normally google, but seemed to do the job.

Not saying I support this new law, I don't really have an opinion of it. But it does seem like losing Google won't utterly cripple the ability to use the internet which is comforting.
It's definitely impacted some more than others. There's now an entire class of men who can no longer have romantic relationships because they've been cast out of the dating market as technology altered dating dynamics not in their favor. For these men, their world, their society is destroyed.

All my purchased music was properly transferred to YTM, and the analogy isn't quite 1:1 since I can download the mp3s I bought too and store them on my computer. There may have been some cases where specific songs licenses weren't available (I'd like to see the percentage), though the help page says that once they get the license, the song will re-appear in your library too. Over the past year I have found their licensing has gotten better and I run much less into missing albums anymore.
In addition to an IM client, it was a character in HGTTG by Douglas Adams.
So crazy. The videos where people wander around in the streets seem to have gotten popular I assume because of the pandemic and no travelling. You can find ones for Europe. I like to watch the ones in Japan: Rambalac or Japan4k, etc.
Self help includes things like the healthy habits described in this article.

Anyone with ADHD severe enough to warrant stimulant medication is absolutely in need of good self-control habits and other such improvements. Therapy is one way to get it done, but I never suggested it was the only way.

It's a common mistake for newly diagnosed ADHD patients to assume that medication will automatically build good habits for them. That's not true. Medication is best combined with a deliberate effort to improve self-control and create positive environments for focus, as many ADHD patients have explained elsewhere in this comment section.
it's not, this is either overcollateralized lending like compound finance or dharma, or it's flash lending. You don't have to worry about fraud.

edit: this line sheds some light: "Gemini is partnering with vetted and accredited third party institutional-grade borrowers including Genesis Capital". So they are lending your money to accredited parties, not random people on the internet.
Sort of. I feel like both of those terms come with their own additional meaning (toys being mainly concerned with micro-interactions and simulators being more concerned with, well... simulating - and usually the complexity of managing - some real-world system), though I would put them under the overall umbrella of non-objective games
Android, G-Suite, even YouTube (though that is also advertising)
Orthagonal and nitpick. I couldn't parse the "e.g., Dark Ages" part until I realised what you may have meant is "i.e., Dark Ages". I read "e.g.," as "for example" and "i.e.," as "that is".

You weren’t served a hyper personalized ad because those get expensive at scale so they segment your id into ad target groups. You fit some form of gym enthusiast who shows interest in rowing segment and some unfortunate rowing company keeps throwing their money at you in a useless bid.
I may have missed this on the page; is the interest paid in USD or in the asset you're lending? The examples only show USD.

It says interest compounds daily; keep in mind (US Residents) that every day is another line item you need to report to the IRS.
Wanderlog (YC W19) | San Francisco, REMOTE (North America), VISA | Full-time Full-Stack Engineer | https://wanderlog.com/

Wanderlog (https://wanderlog.com) is building tools to make planning leisure travel easier. We believe that travel makes us and the world better, and are trying to lower the bar to it. We're one of the top-ranked travel planners on web and Android (and rising on iOS), and have grown even during COVID.

We’re currently a team of 6, including 4 engineers (counting twin-brother founders Peter, ex-Stripe; and Harry, ex-Googler as engineers), a designer, and a growth marketer. Our stack is Typescript with Node.js, React, React Native, and excellent front-end and back-end test coverage. We're looking for either an intern who can stay for 6+ months and a full-time engineer.

We also love traveling. Whether it’s a short hop to Austin, Seattle, or New Orleans; or a longer jaunt to Australia, Hawaii, or Banff National Park (all places members of the team have traveled to in the past year!), travel broadens our horizons, builds empathy, allows us to bond with others on our trip! We’re working to bring these experiences to more of the world.

If you're interested in joining us, email me at peter@wanderlog.com or check out our job posting at https://wanderlog.com/blog/jobs/full-stack-engineer/
Thanks for reading! Congrats on starting out on your own.

>However, I am still quite unsure how to actually get the ball rolling. My current game plan is to just brainstorm for a week or so and then start building the best idea I came up with during that week, then give myself a release deadline of one month for an MVP and see if I can raise some interest.

That mostly sounds sensible to me.

I recommend thinking more about the "raise some interest" part. There's a common trap that indie founders frequently fall into (myself included) where you build an MVP but don't think about marketing it until you've already built it. And then you realize there's no plan for finding customers.

Once you build the MVP, how will you find customers? Can you skip to that part without even building the MVP?

One of the ideas I liked in the Jason Cohen video[0] I linked in the article how he built WP Engine. He wanted to build a product for WordPress consultants, so he just emailed consultants and offered to pay them their hourly rate if they'd jump on a call with him and answer questions about their pain points. He didn't have any demo to show them, but people took his calls because he was showing that he valued their time (most accepted the calls and declined the money).

So, I think building an MVP is great, but it's even better if you can talk to customers before you build anything and find out what problems you can solve for them. A great book for this is The Mom Test by Rob Fitzpatrick, for which I've published my notes.[1]

I don’t think Stadia is truly an MVP. It’s a Google MVP, it doesn’t have to be truly viable, only viable to google middle management looking for a promotion.

That’s what people are lamenting, you can’t role out a competitive gaming platform with such a small catalog of titles.

>I bought an Xbox to play Red Dead Redemption 2 . . . lots of people falling into the “who this is for” camp

Those people appear to be “casual/occasional gamers”? I am very doubtful that this group will really turn into
a cash cow. $10.00/month is enough that few are going to keep a subscription after they are done playing. If you amortize a console over a lifetime of 4 years it would be considerably cheaper than paying for stadia if you consider the current $75 upfront cost.

So the way I see it, for stadia to be viable there would have to be a steady stream of AAA titles(because otherwise the need for cloud compute is questionable) produced by 3rd party studios...this just doesn’t exist, titles like RDR2 & CP2077 are an exception. We only saw a handful of titles that demanding and hyped come from a non-Microsoft, non-Sony published studio in the last decade. I’m not in the game dev world, but producing these types of titles seems to be exceptionally difficult, and the trend seems to be less and less AAA titles per year as the complexity compounds.

Combined with stadia’s limited selection, Google’s history of product abandonment, and that you often have to purchase stadia specific versions of titles to play them on the platform. It’s a difficult pill to swallow.
Nvidia’s product, GeForce Now, where titles are portable seems like a much more viable product to me.
I have never heard of someone having withdrawal symptoms from a prescription dosage of Adderal. I've kept my ears open for one, since this is an exceptionally common anecdote that someone's heard from someone else.

If you have, please point to a source - there's a lot of anecdotal FUD running rampant throughout this thread.
Obviously at least over the short term the streaming service ends up cheaper (although with stadia charging for games it depends on how many you buy and how much more they are there than on steam, especially with sales). I was just calling out the implication that the standard price for a GPU that runs modern titles well was more than a current gen console, it's not.

(Amusingly I'm running the exact card you mentioned, and I did buy it for about $450 NZD used, although the going rate is more like $350 now on the local used market).
For React and similar frameworks, the component names get minimized. In practice, JS compilers/bundlers can't mangle property names because 1) alias analysis is hard, and 2) property name string logic is ubiquitous in JS 3) the data often flows from APIs, and mangling would make API maintenance hard. Google's closure compiler and other static compilers are an issue.

As I mentioned in the post, dynamic CSS classnames are also tricky depending on how much gets mangled. We have some techniques in the pipeline for better handling those
I owned a (different) Honeywell cool mist humidifier and ended up buying a Venta LW45 after getting fed up with the Honeywell. The Venta works _shockingly_ well, and requires basically no maintenance. The problem with most wick humidifiers is that minerals build up on the wick very quickly (even before anything starts to grow), and minerals prevent the wick from absorbing any liquid. Even if you don't see or smell anything growing on the wick, the efficiency drops dramatically within a couple weeks, unless you change the wick constantly.

In comparison, the Venta requires almost zero maintenance, and the entire machine is basically indestructible. The electronics pop out if you press the two buttons on top, which means you can hose the entire thing down in a bathtub if you want. You could probably put the whole thing in the dishwasher if you really wanted to, but I haven't tried that myself.
Non physically beautiful or wealthy men who want non-committed relationships with physically beautiful women?
Asking devs to work with RDF is the main issue I have with the approach of Solid.

I don't expect SPARQL and ontologies to go mainstream. So why "force your hand" and make solid depend on the standards of the semantic web?

There are much simpler and productive approaches to solve the problem of data interoperability.
I'm concerned about heat if that little fan goes. I know the storage throttles, but I would imagine 90C+ flash memory is not good for it's long term durability.

I'd like to see a complete fin heatsink that benefits from case flow.
....what?
Brilliant idea, wishing you the best of enthusiasm and good fortune
what do you mean? why would they? Does it indicate anywhere in the ToS that refunds will be made if your account is disabled?

I'm a happy Stadia user and I'd love for this to be the case, but I think it's incredibly unrealistic. If Stadia shuts down we'll be lucky to get 3 months warning, let alone refunds.
> profit margins are 50-200% per sale

Given that it’s over 100%, that’s almost surely a markup calculation, not a margin calculation.

Margin is (unit profit/unit revenue). Markup is (unit profit/unit cost).

A $25 COGS widget sold for $100 is a 75% margin product ($75 / $100 revenue) and a 300% markup product ($75 / $25 COGS).
On ageism- it exists, but there are also other explanations on why we see relatively few older people in IT. One is just the rapid expansion of tech in general. In 1997 the number of people working in "Computer, Mathematical, Operations Research, and Related Occupations" was 1,832,390. In 2019 it was 4,552,880. Most people entering any given profession are young, so you'd just expect to see roughly 2.5x then number of young people to old people (yes, I'm abusing statistics, but I think it is roughly right). What's more, it is absolutely true that older workers are more likely to exit to other categories like management or sales than they are to reenter the straight up IT workforce. You can explain quite a lot of the "youngness" of the workforce by non-malicious means.

Ok, that out of the way- I do believe there is an expectation that you are able to do different things as you age in IT. When you are early in career, the expectation is that you do your job well. Later in your career, the expectation is that your job very well AND you help other people do their jobs, too.

I think you are right- learning another SIEM tool isn't going to be fun, and isn't even what others will expect of you. But being able to evaluate that SIEM tool, understand where it fails against older/other tools, and helping close the gaps- that's probably more interesting and rewarding. Helping that fresh college hire close the gap between what they learned in school and all the extra stuff you have to do in the real world. Helping to org navigate the regulatory requirements of a specific industry. These are all things that really only come with experience.
Okay - who to contact?
I personally took it for a long time, have a few pharmacists in my family. General life experience along with many examples witnessed around me lead me to believe that there is no free lunch. The focus you get comes at a price
nvidia's model is also the least likely to withstand the test of time. Once you have to pay enough for nvidia to break even much less make a profit, everyone is going to bail.

At least with xcloud & stadia's approach there's both subscription fees (passive income if people don't play), as well as the 30% store cut to offset some of the cost.

Although none of these are remotely close to being priced at break-even prices, so this is also likely going to end up with even more IAP-based games on these platforms if this ever "takes off" at all. Which, yuck. This is obviously a bait & switch strategy for everyone involved. Just dressed up as "subsidized during user acquisition" instead so they can feel less evil about it.
Taking breaks simply isn't possible for many, like the withdrawals translates to sleeping 16 hours a day and not having an iota of energy to do everyday activities. It is a vicious cycle the deeper you get into taking stims and feeling normal baseline response by finding your therapeutic dose, why would you want to feel acute withdrawal symptoms and get nothing done on med 'vacation days'?
I’m working on restoring a couple of old H.320 ISDN terminals and integrating them with something more modern. As part of this I’m building basically an entire ISDN stack including a software switch and H.320 multiplexer. Everything except the hardware (well, DAHDI is pissing me off rn, so I’m praying the non-Sangoma hardware I purchased is easier to set up). I have no idea how far I’ll get given the terminals are odd and mysterious in their own right and all the stuff is legacy and not really supported much anymore. Impossible to really monetize these days, but I plan on doing an extensive write up both of my analysis of the terminals hardware/firmware as well as releasing my stack/utilities under and open source license. I plan on it being extensive, but one step at a time. It’s starting to get difficult/expensive to find some of the hardware I need and as I mentioned earlier these terminals are kinda odd and I’ve kinda sat on them for months with just a little reversing.

In the meantime since DAHDI is giving me so many issues and I’m waiting to receive some alternative hardware, I’ve been working on a very, very rough software simulation of a.DS0/DS1 interface so I can at least start developing the ISDN stack on something.
I see, so you see class and function names that make no sense, but they get called with nice clean JSON objects. Neat trick!
For what it's worth, Techmoan recently did a video on one of these:

Are there things you can do to check a MySQL/mariadb instance? I see a command called mysqlcheck I may have to investigate.
The 11.1 source included the blobs as .a files, ostensibly APSL licensed. The 11.2 source moved those to the KDK (this is what the article is talking about), so they are no longer APSL, and further censored the source in the actual XNU open source release.

It is quite evident at this stage that this is somehow related to ARM. They must not like Apple adding nonstandard extensions to the ISA, and they want them to hide them all.

The good news is we don't have to care, and the (accidentally or not) "APSL" blob release gives everyone license to reverse engineer them, since it's not under an EULA.
How Does A/B Testing Work?
What's the market for borrowers? What are people borrowing cryptocurrency for?

With fiat interest rates at record lows, why not borrow fiat instead and use it to buy crypto? Surely not all of the demand is coming from the unbanked?

Haha, that's how she and others I know who use it like that use it. I'm just happy she gets something out of it. I don't, and that's okay. I still have fun, just not with Addy.
Curious to hear a bit more. Who are these men? The non-tech jocks? There must be non-tech females left?

Are you speaking about the average looking male group who can't get tinder hookups?
For me, this article still implies the "Dark Ages" nonsense.

The period of time in these isles post Roman occupation and pre 1066 (Norman invasion) is not a dark age at all - we just have to look a bit harder at the sodding great treasures buried in the ground.

This is telling: "Once under Roman rule, England became independent around 410 and faced wave after wave of conquerors, including the Germanic Angles and Saxons. England did not exist at all "under Roman rule" and the idea of wave upon wave of conquerors is complete nonsense.

The Romans (now there's a funky term) found a disparate collection of tribes and petty kingdoms spread across the islands. You might as well describe everyone living in the south west of modern England as Devonions (Dumnonia - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dumnonia), modern Cornish might take umbrage.

In say 300AD there was as now a lot of topography (hills), few roads and a lot of trees and vegetation. The sea is usually fairly flatter and with wind power easily available and so it is easier to use water to get from A to B if you have a boat. These isles were not a fortress "protected by the seas", it was easier to get here than many local routes on land.
> If your broker lends out your stock and can not recoup it, then you are also not protected by SIPC

This is not true. The broker would be in default to you. If that literally pushed the broker under, SIPC would be there to pick up the pieces.
The headline feels deliberately clickbait-y and disingenuous. I love and support the idea. Aspirationally, the founders may want to compete with Datadog, but OpsTrace overlaps some small percentage of Datadog’s feature set.

I’m surprised the mods haven’t edited this title.

Source: I’m an engineer that’s used, operated and hacked on a medium-sized prom+grafana; and used Datadog at a large, multi-region, global scale.
Of course. This thread was extremely off-base. The entire thread from the top comment to the last comment assumes maleficence by Robinhood.

The bet wasn't that society would collapse, but that it would be "not even close" to collapse, which is a much more difficult question to answer.
Most common medical history items fall under something called CACI: Conditions AMEs Can Issue. (Yes, that's an acronym in an acronym. Welcome to the FAA. AME is the doctor you see for your flight physical, which you probably already know, but other readers might not.) The vast majority of folks walk out of their flight physicals with a medical certificate thanks to CACI.

ADHD does not fall under CACI, and will trigger a deferral to the FAA. The FAA will then refer the applicant to a HIMS AME. (Human Intervention Motivation Study.) HIMS is really about substance abuse, not ADHD, but it's doing double-duty now for things like ADHD and the four conditionally approvable SSRIs. ADHD can also trigger expensive neurocognitive tests ("CogScreen"). So ADHD really is in a separate class of conditions when it comes to getting a medical certificate.

Current use of stimulants is a denial no matter what.

As a flight instructor I think this is completely bonkers. The nature of ADHD is such that if it keeps a person from being able to fly safely, that will show up during training as a failure to meet performance standards. It's completely different from something like a heart condition, where a pilot will fly just fine until suddenly their heart stops. I've taught lots of folks with ADHD diagnoses; almost all of them did great, and the few that didn't were very obviously not able to handle the airplane.
Pardon me for being old and married for decades, but what in the world are you talking about? There’s always somebody for somebody.

Unless we’re talking about polygamy or China’s one child policy. Those definitely create a lot of single men with no hope.

It feels as though the games which are on Stadia right now are games which, with few exceptions, are games which Google paid a significant amount of money to during development to support Stadia as well as other platforms.

I'm guessing that if you look at an existing title along the lines of any of the ones you mentioned, the team has to balance between ongoing development of the game and porting it to Stadia, and they may just not have the resources or inclination to do the porting even when huge cheques are involved.
