Your framework looks good enough and there’s lot of great advice on this thread already.

Have you considered narrowing down on a market segment? A segment could be an industry (banking, finance, e-commerce), or a delivery model (B2B SaaS, B2C SaaS, mobile apps) or a technology domain (ML, analytics, cryptocurrency, mobile). Depending on your skills and experience, you’re more likely to identify problems to be solved in a segment that you understand well.

Have you made stuff that people wanted, in the past? It could be a small app or library, or even a piece of writing that became popular because you anticipated what people needed and catered to it. If not, give that a try as it will force you to walk the customer discovery process in a concrete way.

The “org” and “business” parts should come much later if you’re a first time entrepreneur. Identifying a concrete customer pain point (even if small) and building a solution for it should be top of mind and occupying most of your mental bandwidth. Attention to other details should be only in service of that.
It makes it harder for me to communicate. If you want to wear a mask, that is fine, it is your perogative. But people should be aware of the risks, and I don't think most people do. Many people wear masks because they were told too, despite the fact that the people who said that know that masks aren't necessarily effective.

If we’re going to extremes: why not outsource having a CEO? I mean. A company that gives you a managing director or chief executive can do so with far more availability than just one guy!

But really. Your statement is absurdist, critical infrastructure doesn’t have to be outsourced. It’s a choice and there are trade offs.
Yamaha Reface CP: I can't believe how pleasurable this whole package is to play. Synth snobs look down, there are more versatile alternatives, and it as it looks like a toy, but the keys are amazing, the sound is amazing, and it runs off batteries through built in speakers. No setup required. It's one of the first bits of music tech I got that actually helps write music. Looking at a Little Martin next as if the gear snobs were wrong about 88 key hammer action, maybe they are wrong about solid top jumbo acoustic guitars.

M1 MacBook Air: The hype is real. I've only managed to get this thing hot to the touch once, battery life for days, and living off grid, my 12V battery never runs dry. My work Intel MacBook, the most expensive one they do on the other hand, crashes constantly, drains over 90W of juice, and does so even more when connected to an external display.

Wow, that's very bright! IIRC ours were standard CFL's you'd buy at any store at the time (at least here in the Netherlands), but definitely nothing in the range you're stating.

Reading Carmack's thought to text style writing (a la Joyce's Ulysses) might be the only thing the get me to wade into the sess pool that is Twitter .... Holy crap, that was the most arrogant, self agrandizing post I've ever made =( I wish I didn't feel that way, but I do =)
I wrote on this awhile back, but Twitter should be verified-by-default. If you can verify your identity, you should be given the blue checkmark. That way you can restrict your feeds to those who are verified, or who can connect with you. I believe this would solve a lot of the vitriol and scam/spam issues rather quickly.
Is there a safer alternative?
Right. It's 'easy' relative to the utterly impossible. But it's 'utterly impossible' relative to anything any reasonable human might consider easy.
This is pretty damn scary. Are debtor's prisons about to make a comeback too?
I think if you could genuinely identify offensive tweets then you could hide them from people who prefer that. It would make the user experience more pleasant. Few people want to be offended!

An ideal may be a customized algorithm per user. What offends me may not offend you. Of course, a trade off of that would be a growing filter-bubble...

Describing tornado.cash as a Bitcoin mixer is not accurate.

Exchanging BTC/ETH for Monero leaves just as much of a trail as using Tornado.cash, unless you use a decentralized P2P exchange.
I really like how Go and Rust are enabling a new generation of dev tools. I don't know if it's because they're popular at the moment and the open source ecosystem is growing so lots of people use them, or if it's a more real trend. Still, I think they both have qualities to make this kind of tools easier to make than before.
These systems look great, and I'm casually in the market. Wireless aux speakers + bluetooth connection for phones is basically what I'm looking for (on top of great sound obviously).

Right now I have an older Vizio set which has served me well, and I've been checking out Sonos lately.

Would the A be worth the extra $500? I'll use it for TV/movies via HDMI Arc, music via bluetooth (yes I know I shouldn't use BT), and vinyl via RCA/aux.

edit: It actually looks like there is no RCA/aux. I could use optical I guess.

As you stated, people don't want crypto systems to seamlessly cover all of society. So, we can reasonably expect other systems to exist and also some crypto systems to exist. I have a cautious eye towards crypto, but a realistic future includes people using crypto for some things and using interpersonal agreements for other things.
But isn't that the grandparent's whole point?

If you can't take being called "soft" or a "wussy", you ARE...and need to toughen up...ignore trite insults, and be able to withstand the torrents of potential backlash/hardships (from customers, competitors, whatever externalities...or even from internal sources, eg: partners - you WILL fight).

It can't access the file system, but it could implement an API that emulates a file system inside the browser sandbox. Presumably that's what they're doing here.
I think the "not wanting to work for poverty wages" thing makes more sense when you compare the tradeoff.

Until you're making around $30k, you can either be in dire financial straits and not work 40 hours per week, or you can be in dire financial straits and work 40 hours per week. Who in their right mind would choose the second option?
Hey :) it’s not multiple accounts - this post is by one of the core contributors to the project who is a functional programming expert and I thought it would be helpful if he shared his perspective on why Haskell was chosen for this!

(I couldn’t see my earlier post for some reason on Show HN and I thought I accidentally deleted it, so I thought rather than me reposting it, it would be nice to have one of our contributors share his perspective).
>I really dislike the paternalistic attitude in this article. It treats working people like wayward children who must be kept from sinful idleness. It does not treat them as rational economic actors who maybe, just maybe, don't want to work for poverty wages.

But the article does exactly that? The title literally says "The U.S. Doesn't Have a Labor Shortage. It Has an Incentive Shortage", which definitively hints it's an economic problem rather than a moral problem. In the body that's expanded upon

>Had government offered me almost equal money not to work, I never would have applied. [...] Given the cost of commuting, etc., many people find they are better off financially not working.

In other words, why get a job that pays $15/hr when you can stay at home, play fortnite and "earn" $16/hr[1]? Seems like an entirely rational decision to me.

As is general true in English, there are a lot of idiomatic ways to say the same thing.

I would probably say to move them "off to the edge" or just "to the edge". Confusingly, "off the edge" would not be correct, that would mean pushing them onto the ground!
That's how I look at it as well. And if it tanks and never recovers, then it seems to me that would also mean society has completely collapsed and there really isn't much any individual could do about it anyway.

The existing management contracts pre-COVID19 (primarily London Overground and the Thameslink, Southern and Great Northern railway (yes, that's all one company!)) _did_ have penalties for late running, partial cancellations, or full cancellations.

One can argue whether increasing the fines would lead to better service, or whether it would just increase the cost they bid for the concession to cover those costs, effectively resulting in increased subsidy.

There's also the fact that in many cases there's limitations to what the concession can do: the existing ones have had much decided by the body granting the concession (such as rolling stock, thus limiting their ability to procure more reliable rolling stock if needed), and they don't have any control over infrastructure (and e.g. signal failures or flooding).
Then they are using the term right. They said relatively easy, not absolutely easy.

Businesses file 8300 forms, not customers. The cost will still trickle down to customers but they won't suddenly be required to fill out these forms.
Conversation helper. Imagine you talk to a person. It can give you a list of ice breakers to open up the conversation based on the person's appearance and surroundings.

Legitimately very interested to see a comparable study for cannabis, in adult users.

[EDIT] everything I could find with a quick search is about heavy, long-term use only, which evidently has little effect on white matter, and uneven effects on grey matter, increasing it in some areas and decreasing it in others. Nothing about long-term light use, occasional "binge" use, anything like that.
Electronics:

We moved into a free-standing house (in SF) from an apartment and for the first time in my adult life, security became something I had to think about.

I bought 3x Arlo cameras -- a doorbell cam and 2x 4K cams to cover our patio & driveway, and I have to say, it's one of the best hardware purchases I've ever made. I never thought myself to be a "worried about home security" guy, but it's REALLY been great to have these.

First, I get to watch the raccoons come by at night and wander through our yard, which is funny and fascinating :)

Second, I get instant notifications when a delivery person is approaching so I can go greet them and they don't even have to ring the doorbell, and

Third, it provides actual security. A homeless dude parked himself in front our garage a few weeks ago and settled in with his crack pipe (Welcome to SF everyone!), and I quickly and politely got on the remote audio (from overseas!), said "Please leave the area" in my most authoritative and polite voice, and he got up, waved in the universal "sorry, didn't think anyone would notice" way, and all was fine.

Non-electronics:

I've rediscovered my love for numismatics lately and I just bought an 1883 Morgan dollar, toned in proof 63 and man oh man does that bring me joy.

If you're a coin nerd, you know what that all means. If not, it's a gorgeous colorful piece of handheld art in form of a silver dollar that the US mint produced in 1883 specifically for collectors, and it's stunningly beautiful (and was entirely out of reach for me when I was a 10 y/o and first got into coins).
looks super useful. congratulations!
> Well-defined integer overflow would not preclude loop unrolling in this case. One simple alternative would be for the compiler to emit a guard, skipping unrolling in the case that (offset+16) overflows.

To what end?

for(i = offset; i < (offset + 16); i++) {
arr[i] = i + 32;
}

like most loops in most programs isn't designed to overflow. The program isn't any more correct for emitting two translations of the loop, one unrolled and one which is purely a bugged case anyways.

Changing the way the UB manifests while altering the nature of the optimization hasn't actually fixed anything at all here. All this would seem to accomplish would be to increase pressure on the icache.
Am I missing something, the difference is about $60, which hardly seems worth while on a trade of $40k.
Alcohol is drugs such as weed, mdma and heroine. One is more dangerous than the other, but they have one thing in common.

Drugs damage the body and/or to some extent in some way, shape or form.

Don't do alcohol. If you have social pressure, fake it. Like order a beer and don't actually drink it, pretend to sip. I think people need to take this more seriously and start to think for themselves. I know it's hard, we have habits, but it's damaging.

The safer alternative being: don't do it.

If you want drug like feelings, I'd recommend exercising, being in love or sex. I'm pretty sure one is able to get pretty far with dancing on music as well.

I was also curious, so I found this:

The core: ... transfers of personal data to the U.S.- were not lawful.

So the problem is that an US company cannot be GDPR compliant, because that conflicts with US law. Which sucks for mailchimp but makes sense.
An unprovoked attack on an elderly Asian or person of any ethnicity is a crime, but in general it is not a Federal crime. Often these attacks are committed by someone who is mentally ill and/or has a criminal record, so what is needed to reduce anti-Asian hate crimes is a reversal of lax law enforcement policies in the wake of George Floyd's death.

One interesting tell that I might have heard in Jamie Johnson's documentary "Born Rich" was talk of holidays.

If you talk about holidaying with one's family in some exotic locale or of having a summer home in the Hamptons, the person you're speaking with can surmise that you're not poor.

The rich kids in that documentary also regularly go out to bars and think nothing of spending hundreds or even thousands of dollars on champagne.

It's definitely not just about how one talks that signals to others that one is part of the upper class.. but once one is established as in the upper class, then things such as one's manner of speech might distinguish you.
Forex is often subject to such taxes. If the USD and CAD were trading 1:1 then if I buy 1000 USD with 1000 CAD in cash I have right now, and then immediately buy 1000 CAD worth of products with those USD, there are no taxes due.

If I buy 1000 of USD with 1000 CAD, with the expectation CAD will fall, then since my taxes are due in CAD in my case, when I sell those USD for 1500 CAD I've realized a gain of 500 CAD that would be considered taxable income. But if CAD goes up and I have to sell those USD for only 500 CAD, then I've realized a loss of 500 CAD and I could deduct it on my taxes.

Seems reasonable enough to tax currencies like investments when they're used as investments. Any asset held in that manner usually would be taxed like that.
Some countries phrase monetary fines and thresholds in terms of some inflation-indexed value (e.g. "penalty units" in Australia) to as to avoid having to manually update every single value in the laws when they get around to it. I wish the US would do the same.

I remember BREW but barely used more than the demos: we were in San Diego and Qualcomm was trying to get local developers interested. We had a few clients considering it but the terms we were getting were eye-watering: if memory serves, it was $50k or more per carrier just to be listed for sale, plus a big chunk of the purchase price, and that was just a floor — the carriers wanted to adjust up based on your perceived ability to pay. We had some household name clients but just having money didn’t mean they would entertain the idea of adding so much fixed cost to the project just to see if it’d eventually become popular enough to break even.
> (And yet despite the subsidies and price caps, some train tickets remain absurdly expensive)

This is by design; the subsidy per passenger km has been going down over time, with a greater proportion of costs being met by farebox revenue. And given that's a governmental decision, will GBR actually change that?
Thank you! Our entire team has definitely averaged 3hrs of sleep every night the past week to make this launch happen :) Incredible how much work goes into launching something like this.
True story -- someone (not me) decided to initialize a C++ virtual class by defining a default ctor which does a "memset(this, 0, sizeof(*this))", then uses placement new to re-create the vptr.

Newer compilers complained more and more until gcc 8 which just silently ignored this awful hack -- no diagnostic, no error, just crickets.

Strictly speaking silently ignoring this atrocity is allowed by the standard, but it sure took a while to figure out. So be careful with code that "just works" even if it shouldn't.
Twisbi Eco fountain pen: I think this is a bit past the 2 year mark, but still to this day a purchase I really enjoy. I found that my handwriting improved quite a bit, and I like the different inks. It's pretty subjective, but I've found a good fountain pen just makes writing a lot more enjoyable.

Timex Vibration Digital Watch: I have time blindness, so having a thing on my wrist that beeps every hour is really useful. Vibrating alarm means that I know when a timer goes off even if I have headphones on or am sleeping. And there's something to be said for the simplicity of digital watch interfaces. I don't have to worry about charging it, the UX is easy to understand. It helps with my time blindness, and that's it -- it doesn't check my blood pressure or tell me when I get a text message. It does one thing well.

VivoBarefoot Primus Lite (II): barefoot/low-support shoes are not for everyone, but they made a drastic difference for me in reducing foot pain. I like VivoBarefoot's return policy, and their shoes have held up pretty well for me so far.

Tofu Press: If you're using paper towels and plates to press your tofu, you might not realize that tofu presses exist or that they're actually an improvement and not just a gimmicky accessory. They're not a gimmick, they make the prep process a lot easier and a lot less messy. You don't need a complicated press, mine is 2 plastic boards with 2 screws holding them together. I just slip the entire block between them, tighten the screws and then leave the whole thing sitting over a bowl. Way less work than soaking paper towels.

Domestic rats: I think domestic rats are basically the perfect apartment pet. If you want a pet but feel intimidated by a cat or dog or don't have the space to take care of them, you should look into rats. They're lower maintenance than a cat, but very intelligent and affectionate. They love to explore and can be taught tricks, they're litterbox trainable, they're extremely gentle if you get them from a proper breeder. They're pretty messy, but not terrible, and most of their mess gets consolidated to the areas where you let them play. They've done wonders for my mental health during the pandemic; they're just fascinating, amazing animals.

Always buy at least 2, never buy them from a pet store, and keep in mind that because they're so intelligent they do need more interaction, more space, and a lot more mental stimulation than other rodents/pocket-pets. Do research first. Also keep in mind that they'll only live 3-4 years (much less if you get them from a pet store or breeder that does inbreeding), which can be both a positive and a negative.

I think the quiz as it stands is a good way to demonstrate how bad twitter is. In particular I got a few sets of tweets that were identical and had to choose one as offensive at random.

I think a better measure of how accurate a filter is overall would be to show 1 tweet and response at a time and pick offensive or not offensive and then compare to the algorithms.

Hmm, that's unfortunate. I had considered loading the tweets as images instead of actually embedding them. I hadn't realized ad/tracking protectors might block the tweets, or else that might have pushed me over the edge to using images instead.
