The CLEARink product in that thread looks _amazing_. Super excited to see that come to market. I'd buy a dozen of those displays for pairings with Pi's around the house.

Ditto. It's crazy that once-trusted names like National Geographic are doing these kinds of things.
Don't judge the book by the movie. It's a very complicated story and the movie was nearly incomprehensible because they tried to cram everything in it without explanation. The book, and the 1970s miniseries starring Alec Guinness are both excellent, though.
That’s a hip target to skewer for such an elder humorist.

Yes, but he ceased to be HRE in 1806 upon defeat by Napoleon. I see there's some ambiguity here in the way the question was posed and how I answered, but that's what I meant to refer to.

A friend & I have a dream of building an E-reader based on the 10" ED097OC4 E-ink display that was built into the Kindle DX and can now be had for around 30€ (old stock?).

Most parts of the stack are conceptually figured out:

A Pine64 SOPINE module (comparable to the Raspi CM, but cheaper), a Linux DRM driver based on tinydrm (https://github.com/notro/tinydrm) or gud (https://github.com/notro/gud/), as panel driver either vroland's ESP32 based EPDiy (https://hackaday.io/project/168193-epdiy-976-e-paper-control...) or a custom FPGA solution.

What's really missing and I just can't figure out is how to get a touch input layer on there. Because the format is so weird there's just nothing available off the shelf at a fitting size. Cutting a larger one to size doesn't seem feasible (or is it?), perhaps the most DIYable would be an infrared solution like early kindles and old larger touch screens have, but on that topic there's a distinct lack of information (best I could find is this EEVblog video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qnZ9KfJNjRQ).

A button-only navigation would really suck, since even KOReader (the absolute minimum application to run, preferable would be a full Wayland desktop) doesn't seem to be compatible with that.

I figure this is the best place to ask: Does anyone have an idea how this could be solved? Also, would anyone be interested in E-reader kits like that?

Ramblings on these topics...

Exposing SBOM on every piece of delivered software will just make a hackers job easier and quicker... Since by design they are machine readable, SBOMs will make querying for specific vulnerabilities trivial.

This is not a top-down problem! Any upper layer can be compromised by a lower layer (os, build tool, library, reporting tool, etc.) this problem can only be solved Botton up : from verified OS, to verified (bootstrap) build tools of that OS, to every library installed on that OS, etc.
We currently have decades of software resting atop of unverified libraries resting atop of unverified operating systems, all built with unverified tooling.

We can't even build verification tools that are, themselves, verified! And if we could, can we even say they verify every potential vulnerability? (mitm, boundaries, race conditions, cpu cache, etc.)

I know there is research at some universitys into formally verified OS's, but it's a long way off IMO.

This is the problem of our time. But, unfortunately, the industry seems consumed with velocity and cleverness over stability and security.
I’m wondering what camera would be best for this kind of thing? I’d love to make some.
I keep hearing that, but in practice one can have macros/code generation in a static language. Maybe meta programming takes a bit more effort, but it's the kind of thing best done in a well tested library.

A lot of modern typed languages have got pretty decent meta programming: rust procedural macros, nim, D, crystal, Zig... Where's the equivalent of serde in python? It's mostly runtime type driven deserialization that is orders of magnitudes slower.
They were right all along... sadly.
I wonder if the orange tab can be folded over without damaging it.
What the OP wrote is considerably more offensive than what I responded with (and I also was originally going to respond with something FAR less polite, but decided against it).

Sugarcoating it any more would just dilute the message. I stand by what I said.

Working from home.

Every job I've ever worked, my teams have been split across countries so transitioning to working from home was fairly seamless for me, because I've always operated under the assumption that not everyone is in one spot.

But it meant tons of things:

* I get to sleep longer which has helped my epilepsy greatly

* I am not spending 3-4 hours a day commuting which means I spend more of my time being productive

* I can spend some of that time walking my dog and cooking meals for my wife, so I'm healthier now than I was.

* Seeing my wife and dog for more of my day is just pleasant.

* Being able to listen to music and work on things consistently without being bothered in person, since most of our communication is over slack now.

* Since communication has moved to slack for impromptu stuff, it means I can interact with far more people in the company than before.

* not commuting to meetings.
Whether that's down the hall, in another building or across town. I no longer have to spend my time in between meetings trying to rush to the next one.

* Being able to work during meetings. Honestly most meetings don't require a person to be involved for the entire duration. So as long as I pay attention, I can continue doing other low attention things in the background. Like kicking off builds and debugging smaller things. Earlier they'd eat into my non meeting time, but now I can do more things in parallel.
Right now I'd you buy property software, you get a binary of some sort. That's neither composible or auditable.

You should get the source code and a reproducible build, that you can modify and integrate with other things. Kinda like licensing closed source game engine parts, or getting hardware design libraries (IP as they say) for making your own system on a chip.

The idea of SBOM, or BOM is not a new one. Maven already has one for years now called BOM files [1]. So am I right in assuming that the author's suggestion is to make this BOM file public like the ingredients in food product as some people have suggested? If so, I can see a quick static analysis tool that can spit out the vulnerabilities just by parsing the BOM. So, really there's nothing to do much _technically_ here other than releasing out in the open the BOM. And then displaying ugly warnings about any software's BOM to either shame them or actually hurt their bottom line by lost revenue due to those vulnerabilities.

This is quite late, but I thought I'd add my two cents. I use Linux as my only daily driver, and in general I use my distro's package manager. I keep secure by not running random executables and keeping updated, but I'm no infosec engineer and there is a 0% chance that anyone who knew what they were doing couldn't work around everything I have.

Flatpak for me is incredibly useful in a narrow use case; other people put in the work to make stuff work without cluttering my damn home directory! Specifically it's helpful for Steam. Why every game on the planet feels the need to fill my home directory with UNHIDDEN directories with spaces in the name (!!!) is absolutely beyond me.
Dada of NFTs, the future is going to call this Cleese’s bridge for NFTs as we call Duchamp’s urinal. It will probably sell, that’s why he didn’t just tell us the joke but also listed it.
This is basically a "what about" argument but in this case it does illustrate something valid. There are lots of things that benefit a segment of people and harm everyone. One I happen to notice regularly because I don't have one, is cars. They not only contribute massively to climate change; they also directly kill ~35,000 people annually in the US. Yet cars are beloved, sacred, unassailable to a majority of Americans. Are those people evil? No one alive can throw the word evil around without implicating oneself. The whole concept is just a religious overlay designed to try and mitigate a bunch of much older and ubiquitous human behaviors that suddenly became disruptive after we took up agriculture and settled in villages. (Which by the way, was itself "evil" in that it enabled a few to feed themselves, by taking land from "everyone" or at least all hunter-gatherers, and destroying the natural habitat that the land contained.)

I would say tech startups are beyond mainstream and are pretty clearly a bubble, at least in the informal cultural sense. In some ways, like you say, it's easier to take advantage of all the extra ecosystem that comes with that and to get yourself off the ground without 'institutional' help.

At the same time, _funding as a signal_ is losing meaning with all the cheap money floating around, so it becomes harder to distinguish yourself in the noise. Even if you have a truly great/revolutionary/whatever product, the changing parameters make mis-timing things more likely.

Personally, I'm less worried about early stage and more worried about what the state of the startup world will be when we eventually do need to raise larger amounts of money.
Yes! A good, close-to-pro level Pi based laptop. Brownie points if it includes a SDR.
Which company is that?? You're probably referring to DeBeers, but your diamond knowledge is like 30 years behind the curve if this is the case. DeBeers does not have a diamond monopoly! This is a myth recycled over and over on the internet from people making some fake moral anti-diamond stance. DeBeers has less than a 30% market share, and aren't even the #1 producer of diamonds any longer.

The real reason diamonds haven't cratered is because they're a commodity that's always in demand - as long as people want to buy them they won't crater.
As someone who does math for a living, I’m always frustrated because I truly believe it’s a poor math education thing. But then people just respond, “oh MYNAME, you just think that because you’re good at it/you’re a math person.” As if that made the point less valid rather than more valid.

FYI - Compliance regulation in the US government almost never works, our government sucks at it. If you want to regulate a company like EquiFax, you have to stick to investigations and prosecutions, which the US government is quite good at. Companies can take the risk, but if they violate the law it should be big fines and jail time for the executives.

Our kids have moved out so there's just the two of us now.

We solve the 'wait until the dishwasher is full enough' problem by simply having enough dishes and cutlery to last us the 2-3 days it takes to fill it up :)

We do the pots and baking dishes and other awkward items that aren't great for the dishwasher by hand after dinner, but they generally only take a few minutes most days. We try to run the dishwasher end of day or after breakfast in the morning (even if it's not 100% full) to avoid the problem of dirty dishes while it's running.

I agree the roommate scenario is a harder problem, but the same approach might work.
My first thought was "well at least it was only 60 million".

The ads and cookie popups were so bad on this site I just had to close out instead of reading the article. Such a shame that we've destroyed the internet with these monetization strategies. Hopefully we can find a way to clean it up, or at least isolate our attention from this kind of stuff. To be honest, having a site like this leak on to Hacker News lowers the value of Hacker News for me.
Employees are all in SV? What?
I think it depends on what is meant by details. For a DSP engineer, if details are not knowing the difference between and RC made with ceramic or film cap, I’d give a pass there. If details are not solving continuous time equations in the form 1/s, that’s probably a fail.
It turns out you can buy most things from nearby retail stores. Not everything, but I haven’t needed to buy something online that often this year except niche or small publisher items

Shouldn't we expect long-established and well-respected VCs to do a very heavy due diligence, both initially and perhaps even more importantly continously to ensure something like this doesn't happen? Especially in the health field. I mean, the VC brands are used as a stamp of approval.
The author presents a series of strawman arguments to debunk SOLID, and then suggests that instead we should make software as complex as possible but no more complex than the coders own comprehension. In my experience this commonly how incomprehensible codebases evolve; the code is comprehensible right up to the point that it isn't, and by that point it's too late to change anything.

Entrapment is a subtle concept. Most people misunderstand it; police are legally permitted to do much more than most expect.

This guide enumerates the misunderstandings about entrapment, and (if you're not already a lawyer) it will likely teach you something that could prove valuable: https://thecriminallawyer.tumblr.com/post/19810672629/12-i-w...
I read the article and didn't really feel that they disagreed with, or debunked any of the principles. It reads like they formed their own understanding of each principle and maybe disagreed with how they were taught, or how the principles are sometimes presented.

This change in outlook of existing thoughts/ideas is how many crafts grow, such as martial arts, painting, philosophy, etc (instead of stagnating). Sometimes we need to frame things in a more modern manner, and sometimes we need to discard them completely. In this case, I think re-framing the concepts is helpful, and I found it to be an interesting point of view. I agreed with a good amount of it, but I don't think we need to discard SOLID principles just yet.
Also, I wonder how can we realistically implement this for SaaS?

I got the BOOX Note 3 and it somewhat dooes what I need it to. It’s
mind boggling to me, however, that nobody has tapped into this market yet. I think Lenovo even made a laptop which had one e-ink as well as a regular display, but used the e-ink display in place of the keyboard. That just felt like they were rubbing it in tbh.
Some more:

> Indiana's IFR for noninstitutionalized persons older than 60 years is just below 2% (1 in 50). In comparison, the ratio is approximately 2.5 times greater than the estimated IFR for seasonal influenza, 0.8% (1 in 125), among those aged 65 years and older (5).
I see flatpak and snap as potential solutions to the problem of distributing proprietary software to Linux. Its in that usecase that I really want sandboxing and where the current solutions are lacking.

Right now I'm most happy with Firejail for sandboxing proprietary applications. It doesn't solve the packing problem but seems to do the best job at actually limiting what applications can do.
I've seen this argument around quite often, but it feels more and more like the product of the Amazon PR machine. It appears that in at least some cases wages for warehouse workers fell 30%[0] once Amazon opened it's warehouses. Amazon seems to be dragging warehouse wages down to $15 rather than up.

Considering all the hardware and software is open source the repairability will be high, obviously you will need some tools to do it.

Except that's not what happened, there was no entrapment, and the US has a very similar legal system to other Western nations.
I used this analogy myself the other day, and it's how I often explain software development to people who have been led to believe that computers are some deep mystery that could never be understood by the common man.

However there is one important difference between software developers and car mechanics, and that is that our work is in cyberspace so it can be effortlessly duplicated and sold a million times over. Car mechanics operate in meatspace, so in order to get paid they need to keep on fixing cars. A software developer could fix just one virtual car and then keep earning money forever thanks to intellectual property laws. It doesn't seem like equal pay for equal work.

Thinking about it this way has led me to become more skeptical of intellectual property laws. Software development isn't especially more difficult than any other skill, but we are disproportionately rewarded for it due arbitrary legal constructs. It seems like the industry has a vested interest in giving the impression that what we do is impossibly complicated. If more people realized the truth, there might be a stronger call to abolish or at least reduce the terms of copyright, patents and so on.
Ask HN: What good introductions to StandardML are there?
I am looking for a good introduction to StandardML. I would like to understand how to make best use of its type system.

Secondary goal is to be able to understand Chris Okasaki's Purely Functional Data Structures book, in which the examples are given in StandardML.

So far I have found:

- https://homepages.inf.ed.ac.uk/mfourman/teaching/mlCourse/

- https://www.cs.cmu.edu/~rwh/isml/book.pdf

- the YouTube playlist of Dan Grossman's Coursera course about programming languages

- some other YouTube videos

What are your recommendations for books about StandardML?
That feels unfair, they can’t be HQ’ed in SF because there’s no space for an HQ.

Narcissism is caused, among other things, and to my best understanding, by the equivalent of an emotional autoimmune disorder to self love.

The DSM has many flaws, notably being a categorical tautological discretization of some stateful, high-dimensional networked process.

But one thing they do get right is the constancy of causes in the different families of personality disorders. NPD, for example, is not an 'evolving personality', it's only classified as NPD if it's rigid, generally unchanging, and pervasive by its very nature.

Misunderstanding some group of people then claiming action like 'throwing the shrinks in jail' based on that misunderstanding is quite frustrating to me. In addition, the DSM was never meant to be an official manual, just a lingua franca, at least in the early days. You can blame the prevalence of needing discrete billing codes and the stubbornness of the APA to change in more difficult parts of it for its prevalence today.

Please understand the difference between temporary self-absorption and clinically significant chronic self-displacement into secondary, superficial images of self. The first one is growth and struggle, the second is a supremely painful disorder (arguably all of the lack-of-self-love/Cluster B/reactive disorders are, I'd contend).

Right with you on destigmatizing. But that being said, people with narcissistic traits are generally not safe at all, in the least, to be around with any kind of emotional proximity, to be honest as I can with my personal experiences in and around the world. Not that you, or I, or anyone else should stigmatize or hurt anyone on the NPD spectrum 'just because', but I feel very strong that it's basically impossible for anyone on that spectrum to not involve you past a certain point due to the deep desire and need for others for self to feel safe -- that's where I'd argue with the crossover of BPD is with narcissism, although hyperempathetic as opposed to low to literally no empathy at all.

Just my 2 cents, hope this helps clear things up a bit.
I’m about to do something similar, but it’s getting a car that I’m going to put a bed in the back of and drive cross country to a new job, which will also involve driving around and camping as part of it.

I’m all excited over the stuff I want to get. A little solar panel with a battery, good camping stove and coffee percolator, and lots of good audiobooks and podcasts :)

That things gonna be my ticket to anywhere, lol.
Is it not the same for physical basketball cards? I doubt you own the rights to the photograph or even the stats on the card.
My guess is that most of the labor cost is due to delivery and not the warehouse. If they advocate for higher wages in the warehouse, regulators and the general public will be less suspicious of the policies that drive the lion's share of their labor costs.

I'm sure if they thought they could get away with "subcontracting (wink wink)" all of their labor positions so that they are not liable for the wage theft that must occur to meet the contracts, they would do so.
