An equally reasonable explanation is that he's overly optimistic and he's on the spectrum, and the bitcoin play is a hedge [1].

It appears that tunneler is a pixel-based game (not sure whether there is a commonly used term for that, but I mean games like Lemmings or Scorched Earth or Liero or Noita which are grid-based at pixel precision).

It is not clear how to make a hyperbolic pixel-based game because there is no fixed relation between the map and the screen pixels. (This is also why HyperRogue cannot use pixel art.)

Of course, one could still just pick a dense grid and use it instead of the actual pixels.

There is nothing very close to Tunneler, but there is an Asteroids clone mini-game inside HyperRogue, and a "shmup mode" which is real-time and can be played in local coop.
That's easy enough to say, but time and time again I see codebases, even ones making extensive use of prepared statements, falling back to doing string concatenation from time to time. Prepared statements etc are an example of "opt-in security", which is a good band-aid to have for quickly fixing up old code, but it still allows for some pretty egregious errors.

Again, with the seat-belt analogy. As long as you're safe and careful all the time, seat-belts are worthless. Therefore seat-belts are only for dumb, reckless people.
One reasoning I've heard is that he absolutely despises the levers and players of traditional finance, so this entry into BTC is another big f*ckyou to Wall Street.
Good! These already beg for the rethinking.
Is there any information on this?

I just had a look at their pricing page and it doesn’t seem to say anything about this.

Maybe a screen shot would do if it’s something you only see when you have the plan?
Great job!

Yeah, the only one. Obviously. Well done.

Not that perhaps he's a libertarian or someone who embraces new technologies. No. He's a charlatan and a liar. Who btw put 2 humans onto the space stations as a US company. But yeah, its all a lie.

In what appears to be contrast with a lot of people here, I actually support fighting against libelous and untrue claims. The law firm here is entirely in the right to not want to be called scam solicitors when they are not scam solicitors.
Recently I was thinking that the biggest reason this discussion keeps coming up (and is so unedifying) is that many of us have entirely different experiences with ORMs that colour our views.

I "grew up" using Rails and ActiveRecord. I maintain that (from version 3 onwards) it's absolutely flipping amazing. Can't get enough of it. Never had an issue constructing queries, defining migrations, or dropping down to SQL when I needed to – and generally being able to define and use the entire "database layer" of an application in a robust and sensible manner. Love everything about it.

In contrast, I picked up GORM to use with Go – thinking that I was generally pro-ORM and so it would be a straightforward thing to use. It has been an active impediment to getting work done, and I hate interacting with it. Part of this is no doubt due to my mindset and expectations, so I don't think it's fair to criticise the project itself. But I think it revealed to me that other people might have an entirely different experience with the benefits and costs of using an ORM, and that this is likely derived from both the tools they have used and the projects they have worked on.

I guess the point is… being open-minded about the benefits and costs is always a good thing.
this is the most hilarious blog piece on HN i've ever seen
> Sounds like someone placed a server in their basement, added cPanel and a PayPal link and totally ignored whatever happened to that server.

Welcome to 99% of shared web hosting businesses.

WHM + cPanel is the combo you need to know if you ever want to run a webhosting company.
You can’t be a bit on the spectrum. Either you are on the spectrum or not.
Wait - the island of stability can be for more than a year? That's mindblowing. I wonder what the properties of these huge elements are.
same good ol'story :)

in reality we are all "always newbies" and we will be. Thats the modus operandi of always innovating/disrupting world. No matter what you are doing. You either stuck on your favourite patterns, learn new or die.

It is the same thing as any other companies in the reviews business. The same can be said of Glassdoor or Yelp for example. As long as a review as an impact on the finance of a company. You can be sure the reviews provider will give ways to remove those reviews.
The online property only accounts for about 10% of the total ad spend (over $200M/yr). The website accounts for exactly 0% of the bread and butter (high volume, low profit) business, but easily 60% or more of the the rest of it (low volume, absurd profit).

I've talked at length about it before in comments. Not really looking for the repeat discussions.
I didn't read the linked article yet, but to me, Foucault really is one of the most interesting intellectuals of the 20th century (or longer) - if only because of how differently people perceive him. There's that old debate between him and Chomsky, and it's incredible how different people will score that debate. Some see obscurantist posturing versus Chomsky's towering, rigourous intellect, where others see Chomsky outclassed so thoroughly he doesn't even understand what's going on.

(If you happen to be on the latter team, it's a meme format: https://foucaultnews.files.wordpress.com/2020/10/foucault-20...)
As a business owner? Yes, you can use Yelp and pay them for removing/burying negative reviews.
So, they've been useful for me and some of my friends, but it is worth sharing the specifics to know if it'd apply to your own situation. I did create a site focused on creating cover letters (crowded marketplace, but I had fun doing it), www.coverletteremails.com, here's what I learned in the process:

First, the format has changed. It was written about in this thread, but if you are sending an email, then the body of the email is basically your introduction / cover letter. I've never opened an attachment to an email (especially if it was .docx file, which does still happen) when evaluating candidates.

Second, emails haven't been as useful in sharing cover letters and resumes (kinda ironic that I built a site focused around emails, I know - lessons learned :) ). What has worked really well is a simple html page. This has worked far better - here is an example of one that I used, edited. https://www.coverletteremails.com/letters/honeycomb.io/ (full disclosure - I didn't get that job, but working at honeycomb would've been incredible).

Having a URL like the one above has been helpful. Usually, if you are applying through something like greenhouse.io, there will be a section for you to enter your cover letter, in that section, I would write something like "I put together a quick intro of myself at https://wwww....".

I don't have any statistics on things like 'how many times was this opened' because I thought it'd be cheesy to include something like google analytics on a page like that. I guess I could evaluate logs and such, but never got around to it. So the only evidence I have is interviewers saying something like "I liked your intro / or I liked your cover letter ... how'd you build that?"

hope that's helpful
Seems perfectly reasonable to go after someone for libel for literally committing libel.

The guy shamelessly lied and called the law firm a "scam".
This move will wipe out all carbon savings that Tesla has achieved within a short period of time.

It shows he is completely uninterested in actually being environmentally friendly.
Yeah. Gopher, Gemini or something slightly more sophisticated. In fact HTTP/HTML/CSS are OK if you use them the right way.
There are many cheap shared hosts, though perhaps not that cheap if you want cPanel given their recent licensing change to per-account from per-server.

If you are fine doing your own setup and have low resource needs, you can get a 1$/month VM from a number of places. Cheaper if your resource needs are really low, or you don't need a dedicated IPv4 address.

There are even search engines collating them, https://www.serverhunter.com/ for instance. Just do a little background research before picking the cheapest, if you care anything for what you host.
> I would've assumed Corky said "go home and bite pillow."

I think that amounts to an assumption that the author is dishonest. If Corky's speech is broken in that he leaves out "my", the author's addition would be changing the quotation. Brackets can generally be assumed to replace tense (in single-word uses) or to paraphrase (in lengthy uses).
I learned VB, Java, python, "C++", C, JS, go, rust, "Real" C++, in roughly that order. The first c++ is basically writing c with classes. Enough to write Arduino stuff. The latter is learning modern ish c++14. Smart pointers, copy and move constructors, lots of boost, move semantics (I still don't grok &&). Also, interfacing with c++98 and C drivers. On top of that, Cmake for building complex c++ projects.

I thought rust had a steep learning curve and borrow mechanics were hard. Boy howdy, "Real" c++ makes rust look like a cake walk. C++ has basically all the borrow mechanics of rust, it's just verbose, tedious
, idiosyncratic, and bolted on. Plus umpteen other ways to pass data around.

The package and build system just works.

IMHO The "only" real advantages c++ has over rust are momentum, availability, and the ability to natively use C can code. The mind share, library ecosystem, and ubiquity are unmatched. However I see a point where wrapping FFI becomes easy enough that this last advantage becomes a draw. The second is fixed by more compiler support.

Compared to Java, rust is less verbose, faster, less memory, and better abstractions, though I haven't touched Java in 5 years.

The rust experience is so much better than C++ that I see it continuously eating into mind share. I think the joy comes from the relief of frustration of working with automatic foot guns for years.

This claim requires some data to back it up. I know at least a few people (including myself) who are more productive in Rust than in other mainstream languages typically used for CRUDs like Java, C#, Python, Ruby or PHP.

Ehh, credit where credit due. States and governments wouldn't be enacting future combustion vehicle sales bans and GM didn't run a Superbowl ad [1] about switching to EVs had Tesla not existed and pushed hard towards an EV future. Consider the returns on the entire world electrifying light vehicle mobility due to Tesla and Musk's efforts. Don't miss the forest for the trees. I suppose you could make the argument that if Tesla has enough cash reserves to invest in bitcoin, they are no longer financially engineering aggressively (investing all working capital in capex to grow faster).

I still think bitcoin is a suboptimal value of store considering it's power requirements, but I can see what's attractive about it to those who want to store significant amounts of value in a macro environment where every central bank is racing to devalue their fiat faster (whether through "money printer goes brrr", negative interest rates, etc).

Cryptos with less of a footprint are on the way. This issue will be solved.

In the meantime after a year of the US government printing 20% of all dollars ever made, perhaps an alternative form of currency is a slightly more complex issue than just it destroying the environment. Maybe some people realise the monetary crisis that's inevitably coming.

There would be little problem if his methods were confined to examining questions such as the truth of phrenology, the ideological presumptions that made it an appealing set of beliefs, and power relations that motivated them. Unfortunately, his followers (and Foucault himself) cast a far wider net than that, to the point at which power-knowledge becomes the predominant or even the only acceptable analytical framework in some fields. While that may not be entirely Foucault's fault, it is harmful nevertheless.

The reason I always did it in school was because we’d have maximum word limits on essays (either due to an evil teacher or time constraints on exams) and copying an entire quote when you only needed the beginning and end would eat up time you could use to write the analysis bits. Maybe I’ll grow out of it (or maybe I already have, given I rarely shorten quotes when writing for fun on the internet).
At a larger company, most of that would be in the infrastructure department.
The dispute as I understand it was he did not “actually” (literally speaking) have a profit because the clearing and settlement hadn’t finished.

A lot of the anger with Robinhood comes down to the mistaken belief by many people that money moves instantly, trades happen instantly.

Robinhood UI is struggling to convey actual current value vs accrued unsettled value vs unrealized value.

These are non-trivial concepts. The time component of money confuses a lot of situations. Eg Most people treat retainers as revenue before it is earned; even SaaS companies treat MRR as earned before the time period elapsed and service is rendered. However this isn’t strictly correct or legal.

Maybe, but... You're comparing it to facebook. There's whole countries for whom internet = facebook. Facebook could have very well been a major element in 2016 USA elections. It has a magnitude more users than reddit (although the number is gradually getting closer). It's much more opaque than reddit, who knows what really goes inside of it.

I mean, it's Facebook. If you're arguing that something has bigger reach than Facebook, you need more than those arguments.
with the colossal amounts of money these companies are earning, why not spread the wealth round a bit?
The thing is, there is no "one size fits all" option most of the time.

There are some packaged solutions but they all involve lots and lots of expert design, setup and management.

So quite often it actually is for the interaction with possibly expensive engineer from random place in the world who has specific knowledge for the system involved, as well as enabling remote operations when facilities are in less accessible location.

As for IIoT 4.0 - truth is a lot of industry was already heavily connected, and many functions I've seen so far are about getting deeper integration between ERP, MES, and individual work cells and workpiece tracking.

Even when the workpiece is fried chicken waiting to be put in a bun, or a cut of pipe that will next need to be appropriately cleaned, bent, welded, painted and finally become part of a ship assembly.

Hey completely respect your concerns.

We have built it for developers and understand the criticality of the data handled by the tools used by developers. We in no way want to give off an impression of mistrust or carelessness at the very least, but this sentiment seems to be resonating through out the comments section and as an immediate fix we have updated our app to have no fullstory in it .

Would it be possible for you help us pioneer these concerns. We are here to listen and work on it and would love to chat on our discord channel or over email. Thank you in advance!

It is a do-over for front end development: rather than trying to address the shortcomings of HTML as a hypertext by adding in more javascript, it addresses the shortcomings directly.

The line: "Usually, the prose is infused with arcane terminology and learned jargon, creating an aura of scholarly profundity. We can call this phenomenon obscurantist pseudophilosophy." struck me as especially hilarious in context.

The max zoom of the website is pretty much the maximum resolution seen by the telescope. You can tell because you can see the point-spread functions of the stars (i.e., they look like blobs) at the maximum zoom.

In order to get better resolution, you need to put your telescope at a better site (on a higher, drier mountain with a more laminar airflow; or in space), or you need adaptive optics (which limits your field of view, making it unsuited to large surveys of the sky like this).

Coronavirus digest: German nursing home sees outbreak after vaccines
"Issue" sounds like a bug though. It was an accurate number, the user just didn't understand the context of it. The question is whether it was illegal to get the user into that position without them understanding what they were doing.

> Monday’s lawsuit said Robinhood had an obligation to know its customers and ensure its trading strategies were appropriate, but instead the broker preyed on inexperienced investors.

Does robinhood actually have this obligation? Not knowing anything, I would assume they don't actually have to do this. Appropriate is subjective and nonsensical imo. Did the guy do something inappropriate? On one hand I think no, it wasn't especially crazy as a financial move. On the other hand, should a 20 year old who doesn't know anything be able to get involved in 100k margins? Idk. I do think robinhood preys on inexperienced investors. I'm interested to see how it can be argued as illegal.
Yet most people purchasing Bitcoin are treating it as an asset denominated in USD, not a currency.

The first counterargument always seems to be that at some point in future the energy consumption problem will be solved, but isn't the rate of computation a or the main factor against 50%+ attacks? Else the solutions proposed seemed to rely on centralized services that don't actually play on the blockchain to reduce the actual amount of transactions and load, also then avoiding the delays - but then re-adding the supposed main issue of having a "trustless" blockchain.
> Can you really trust the reviews you might already have read, or are they just suppressing all the negativity?

If you look at the reviews from before this story broke, you would see that the answer is no, they are not suppressing all the negativity. They mostly had positive reviews, but there were a few that were quite negative.
Have you ever considered the workforce aspect of technologies? Like, you'll still need devops, and if you aren't at least dabbling in containers and elasticity, you're going to get the luddites.
A one-child policy is ethically achievable by making the parents rich or otherwise making retirement care a non-concern. If you look at studies, rich people or people who have retirement taken care of are more likely to produce less children. A socialised retirement plan along with a good safety net for those unemployed would likely drive down population massively within a few generations.
So how does it all work? Market cap and price only has weak connections against each other right?
