Thats exactly what every person selling the scheme says. If you actually try and get them to show proof, they usually don't actually make that kind of money. Or if they do, they make it by selling courses or commission, not by trading.

I mean it is certainly possible to make money from forex, in the same way that you can make money playing roulette. But that's not how the people in this scheme are actually making money - if they were making money on forex, why would they bother selling courses instead of spending all day trading themselves?

Here's a video about IM academy: https://youtu.be/eKXrrsIIEhI. All these people selling the courses pretend to be independent or part of a smaller organization so you don't Google the name, but ultimately they are all in the IM academy pyramid.
Once, a third of the way down the page. But sure it is there.
To the extent that you want to get a POSIX compatible regex engine working with ripgrep, you could patch it to use a POSIX compatible regex engine. The simplest way might be to implement the requisite interfaces by using, say, the regex engine that gets shipped with libc. This might end up being quite slow, but it is very doable.

But still, that only solves the incompatibilities with the regex engine. There are many others. The extent to which ripgrep is compatible with POSIX grep is that I used flag names similar to GNU grep where I could. I have never taken a fine toothed comb over the POSIX grep spec and tried to emulate the parts that I thought were reasonable. Since POSIX wasn't and won't be a part of ripgrep's core design, it's likely there are many other things that are incompatible.

A POSIX grep can theoretically be built with a pretty small amount of code. Check out busybox's grep implementation, for example.

While building a POSIX grep in Rust sounds like fun, I do think you'd have a difficult time with adoption. GNU grep isn't a great source of critical CVEs, it works pretty well as-is and is actively maintained. So there just isn't a lot of reason to. Driving adoption is much easier when you can offer something new to users, and in order to do that, you either need to break with POSIX or make it completely opt-in. (I do think a good reason to build a POSIX grep in Rust is if you want to provide a complete user-land for an OS in Rust, perhaps if only for development purposes.)
It's JavaScript; I'm not sure you'd call it "art".

> I've seen people make big bucks from Forex trading.

I've also seen people making big bucks from what they claim is Forex trading. Whether that's actually true is up for debate - I've heard somewhere that on average even people who do this for a living as a job average ~10% annual returns, so "big bucks" here from trading alone seems unlikely when even the pros can't approach that?
When this question comes up, I always think of Leonardo da Vinci. The man was perhaps the least focused genius in history and it's a wonder he got anything done at all. He spent years experimenting with science, engineering, new painting techniques, and various other things that went nowhere.

Yet, today he's probably one of the top five most successful artists of all time, largely for a handful of paintings.

So, when it comes to the arts, it seems like you can do both. Be a generalist, but make at least one work that is a masterpiece.
I learned this in a Linguistics of ASL course as a part of my degree in ASL. My understanding is that classifiers exist in every natural signed language and isn’t exclusive to ASL.

https://www.allenisd.org/cms/lib/TX01001197/Centricity/Domai...

The linked PowerPoint does a good job of explaining a brief overview of the different types of classifiers. (I actually referenced it to correct my own answer because I knew something felt off. lol)
This isn’t the slam dunk that people think it is, unfortunately.

You see, in addition to controlling the cellular radio and all of those details, the bass band processor also does real time noise cancellation and a variety of other call quality functions that you would immediately miss if they were not there.

That processor is actually doing a lot of different things and is difficult to remove from a phone and maintain what most people would consider an acceptable user experience.

Interesting perspective. I'm on the other end of the coin. Work with mostly C++. Looking at job boards, there are endless opportunities for Ruby and JavaScript positions, not so much for C++ these days. JavaScript will probably be fine for as long as the web exists.
If you are stuck holding Apple stock, specifically, Apple is profitable and has a history of actually paying dividends.

Pure price speculation on stocks, without at least some cursory net present value calculation on the expected lifetime dividend income and a rough estimation of the liquidation value of the company's assets kind of is a Pyramid Scheme in that the only value of the asset is a hypothetical Greater Fool

What about the approach that the Qt library uses, where they have a free GPL version and a paid commercial license? People might pay to avoid GPL obligations while using the library.
I'm being ridiculously pedantic, but they're technically using the saved up chloroplast (not the whole algae cell) to power moving the head around enough to eat more algae, which is what powers the body-growing.

Complete aside: How cool of a name is "Dr. Zsolt Robotka"? Pretty sure Dr. Robotka will also be the name of the next Bond villain.
People often believe they will be able to leave before the pyramid crashes. Which of course doesn’t make sense, statistically it’s very clear the vast majority will lose everything when the insiders start to crash out or are arrested, with no way to get their money back when everybody is rushing to leave the scheme.

The common say is that most car driver believes they are above average. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I would say, in case of this table, "if you have to ask for price you can't afford it".

Just the raw wood material probably costs a fortune. Given the fact there aren't many people that can produce anything out of it I assume that the prices are astronomical.

Flutter Design Kits
At a high, conceptual level this is the sort of error people make all the time:

1) A complex set of circumstances explains the current situation.

2) Nobody on the outside has the ability know very much about this complex situation.

3) They "personify" the problem, and start referring to the company as a "single entity" who has made foolish decisions.

This is a heuristic people employ to try to understand things. It'd needlessly simple, and relies on a moral narrative about "personalities."
HN may be larger than 4000 people, but it feels like a disturbingly large portion of the HN community seems to be in favor of anti-owner and anti-privacy policies. Forced obsolescence, razor/blades business models, selling user "behavior" data, and out-right spying on individual communications all seem to be big moneymakers, and some significant portion of HN's audience is more about "IPO and get rich" than "hacking".

OpenBSD's Chrome had pledge() first, but you're right, I should consider Firefox.

However, there was a recent Firefox bug in OpenBSD, and the patches weren't applied uniformly. It does seem that Chrome is more consistent, and gets more attention.

Im using lineage with microg for 9 months now without missing anything. I'm curious what prevents you from using it for daily usage.
I think these sort of people exist, but they are likely quite rare. I think it'd lack humility to claim I am one of those people, but I will say that I found several other people who were like me but more in this regard during my career by trying many different hobbies and identifying people I respect and work with that share these hobbies. The Gallup StrengthsFinder personality assessment has two strengths, "Learner" (breadth) and "Ideation" (depth), people who have both are rare and perhaps jokingly called "certified know-it-alls", but it's been my experience that this is pretty much true and some people do have the personality to pursue many varied disconnected interests at depth. It's also one reason I believe STEAM is a real thing, because I've met many folks like this that are as gifted in artistry as they are in (physical) engineering and mechanics, as they are in software development. I certainly lack the gifts in artistry myself.

I don't think I've ever met anyone who has depth in every field of study, but I don't think this is a fair requirement to be considered a true generalist.
A few libraries in the Java world have this model. They haven't produced unicorns but seem to be pretty stable businesses - jOOQ(1), hibernate(2) etc. I'm researching DB libraries for work and so those are the ones I recalled immediately, but I think there are some commercial UI ones too.

Anduril Gets Subcontract from Palantir
In automotive, aircraft and many other industries, it's commonplace for them to manage multiple concerns and balance them more or less at the same level of importance.

Comfort, internal space, manufacturability, safety, and so many other aspects are carefully taken in consideration during the design phase. Trade-offs are constantly made in order to reach a balanced design. And that, for some reasons I can only speculate about, doesn't seem to be happening in the software industry.

For quite a long time, technologies advance way faster than our ability to fully understand their possibilities and implications. I believe it explains, partially at least, our current struggles.
I was agreeing until I got to this nonsense:

An object in a type-safe language can contain
capabilities for resources which it uses to
implement its methods, without those capabilities
being available to the code calling those methods.

Java-style stack inspection can restrict user or
library code to deny access at runtime to
unauthorized methods.

Capability-safe architectures such as CHERI prevent
code from accessing memory that it doesn't have an
explicit capability for.

Software fault isolation can allow Multics-style
"call gates", where a library has a different
privilege level from other code.

Aside from CHERI, which requires specialized hardware, none of these actually work and none of the implementations you will find in the wild are anything but snakeoil. Just use a service, it's the only local security boundary current OSes even pretend to enforce.
Former Yugoslavia. Heck, we even had banks that offered monthly 10-15% interest on savings accounts in Deutsche Marks. Needless to say, the whole scheme collapsed after a year or so.
Trader Joe’s does it also, at least in LA.
Funny that the wiki page calls out that the energy benefit from having all that chloroplast around is actually marginal at best, and actually seems to hurt sometimes because of higher levels of reactive oxygen species created as a byproduct of photosynthesis, causing them to die sooner.

What about saas companies providing an SDK to interact with their service? There is still a service, but you interface with it through a library.
And for the handcuffs if you get any other job it almost certainly has similar insurance.

The main issue is if you have no job, when you live you are offered what is called I think Cobra that will keep you on a similar plan. I’ve heard from coworkers that left, sometimes not voluntarily, that it is not cheap at all. California also has decent options for private insurance.

Is. GME is still going.
The skepticism I see about this story is really disturbing. From the evidence I have read I am almost certain that there is a genocide happening. But even if I was only 10% sure it was happening I would demand investigations and proof it wasn’t because the consequences of it being true is so horrible.

I also feel positive that it’s being picked up and spun for political reasons. Just like it was previously ignored for political reasons. That’s a reason to be skeptical of the actions we’re being told to take, not of the fact that it’s happening.

The important thing is we demand that our leaders (gov and corporate) step up and apply pressure. China has to prove there is not a genocide happening - or we need to take action to stop it.

A line of best fit wouldn't quite make sense to me, as the implication would be that extrapolation on that line would lead to improvements -- forever.

A GA allows for iterative generation of multiple faces (no linear assumption) and selection of the best.

Being able to see the path in Finder doesn't seem like something that only 1% of users would want, though. I've seen "normal people" get very frustrated because they couldn't figure out where they saved a file. They saved it in a folder called "Documents", but they then tried to find it in a different folder also called "Documents". Hardly seems problematic to show the path to the folder.
The system I have in my Subaru is pretty useful, and warned me a few times when the vehicle in front of me has suddenly slowed down or stopped. However, it has too many false positives, and if it actually tried to brake every time, the false positives would have been very annoying and I would disable it.
If by hundreds of years you mean since the 1960's, sure.

Good. I hope against hope that Amazon's publicity blitz on this backfires. I was a little astonished at how ham-fisted their messaging was: "Don't let evil unions take your dues money!"

It felt like they thought their workers were stupid, or at least, easily connived into making choices against their own interest. I think there's a good chance they get proven wrong.

Edit, to add: An employee could absolutely decide against a union on ideological grounds or because it doesn't make sense for their personal situation - my point here is more that Amazon's approach seems to think their employees are rubes who will do whatever the bright posters say they should.
QFC tried this in the Seattle area. I actually never tried because it feels more cumbersome than just scanning everything at once.

Also, scales to price veggies and fruits are at checkouts in the states. If they had them in the veggie area, like in much of Europe, things might be really different.

I don't think it's fair to call the GME short squeeze a scam, it was just a community taking advantage of the mathematics at the time. There wasn't any misleading information or false promises, just people FOMO'ing in with the bubble.

EDIT: Also GME is at 240, it's not even a short squeeze anymore it's just bizarre
That's a good point. Trader Joe's appears to use this approach even for their human cashiers.

I don't think these people who don't know there is risk in investing actually exist. Outside of upper middle class bubbles, the common view of financial markets is either that they are a scam that's completely rigged by rich people or that they are just glorified gambling. Just look at Wallstreetbets if you don't believe me. It's just like a casino. Everybody knows you can lose money, but they gamble anyway.
I'm not surprised at all. When I was working in Africa, circa 2002 I took a couple of trips to Zimbabwe with friends, crossing land borders. Aside from many places needing to be paid in $USD during the trips, changing money at official locations within the country was not done due to unrealistic exchange rates. Instead, approaching the border there would be hawkers on the side of the road waving fistfuls of bills. In stopping to talk to them, they would give rates that were an order of magnitude better. I can't say how well this generalizes across the continent, Africa being a huge and diverse place, but it was a interesting experience nonetheless.
Ask HN: As a leader have you successfully kept wokeness out of your workplace?

Man, seeing Bill Gates with horns and in a pentagram sure hits different in 2021 due to COVID/antivax and QAnon conspiracy theories than it did in 1996.
We know the assumptions are incorrect. Based on that, do we change course or not?

My understanding is that we are reducing emissions faster than predicted and will hit our politically agreed targets sooner than we expected. The political decision to change targets at any given point will be revisited based on what we understand at that time.
this is sort of a simplistic take. not everyone has the goal of making money on every single trade. say I buy some security from you, not because I expect it to go up, but because I believe it is uncorrelated with my other holdings. you realize a capital gain, and the value goes down the next day. did I lose? not really; we just had different goals.

edit: maybe a better example. I am confident in $SPCE over the next six months, and I want to open a long position. I want to slightly reduce the risk though, so I also buy an OTM put from you. $SPCE keeps going up, so the put expires worthless. we both won here. you collected the premium and I got into a long position that I wouldn't have otherwise.
You can, you just need to specify the private repo in your requirements.txt via `--extra-index-url`

We use packagecloud.io and inject the relevant token to access our private repo at CI/CD time.
The GME craze doesn't rely (or at least doesn't appear to) on people joining and perpetuating the scheme.

I'm not aware of any long-term meme-stock trading "strategies" being peddled around - it's pretty clear that it's mostly gambling and people are simply making one-off bets.

On the other hand, the various "trading" schemes (whether Forex or crypto or binary options) typically rely on the promise of long-term, sustained profits, buying various courses or trading tools and referring other people to it.
> IOS is even able to restore old app versions specified in the backup by downloading them from the store.

iOS even restores your open applications and task manager state when you restore from the backup. Even more so, theoretically, it can restore every apps state at the point of backing up. It's a feature ported from macOS.
Process works though, because not everyone on your team is going to be an "A" student, and if you have 500 employees, you simply don't have the time and bandwidth to make a custom process for each person. There's wide ranges of ability at every company, even prestigious FAANGs and investment banks and pretty much everywhere. The great benefit of layering on heavy process and bureaucracy is that you can get homogenized, reliable, reasonable-quality, but not consistently outstanding, output from the A, B, C, and D players, without terrible risk that someone who doesn't know what they are doing (who every company has) fucks everything up. As the saying goes, every process you encounter is scar tissue from a past fuck-up. What you sacrifice with all this bureaucracy is the absolutely brilliant output you could be getting from the A players, but the cost is usually worth mitigating the risk of disaster.

If your app is server-side, GPL explicitly permits "private use" of GPL code without licensing anything to anyone, as long as you keep it private on your server.
Nothing Breaks Like A.I. Heart
I don't think it's a reply to just that comment. Seems like there are about as many articles on here about mediocre SaaSes as cool technical stuff.

Of course, the site was made by a vc, so maybe it really is Monetize Everything News.
Oh, so Bloomberg's primary objection -- and the outraged people's primary objection -- was that they weren't get paid a fair wage, not to the mere fact of prison labor? Then why can't I seem to find anyone saying anything to this effect, anywhere?

Because as best I can tell, the objection is exactly the "strawman" I originally alleged, that prison labor shouldn't be used, even when rehabilitative and helps the prisoner find employment after release.

What is a "freedom" is highly subjective. For example the GPL doesn't enable the "freedom" to create proprietary derivative products or tivoized products. Why is that better than the "freedom" to flash their firmware? It is just a matter of opinion.
