Concorde failed because of the technology. It was hugely expensive and consumed mass amounts of fuel (13x the fuel per passenger of a 747-200). It used 2 tons of fuel just to taxi to the runway for takeoff!

I dispute that airlines were actually interested in a Concorde B. The economic problems of supersonic flight would have remained.

For example, gQUIC has its own custom encryption "QUIC crypto" while as you will see in these RFCs the final IETF QUIC design uses the existing TLS 1.3 (existing now, it didn't exist when Google made gQUIC) for encryption.

Or at a philosophical level, gQUIC is an HTTP replacement, it doesn't do anything else except a better HTTP, so it doesn't need to care about any features you might want for, say, SMTP or IMAP or IRC unless it wanted them for HTTP. gQUIC knows about HTTP headers. But the IETF QUIC is a replacement for TCP not HTTP. That's why there's an entire HTTP/3 standard in this bundle of RFCs which sits on top of QUIC as its first "customer".
Even then there can be a question of whether your code is derivative of the runtime, or of the standard. If the latter, then you might escape the licensing quagmire

At my first job we once developed our own controllers with haptic feedback for our surgical training simulation. It was amazing how realistic the feel was.

The motors were quite powerful and there were a few close calls which really made you think.

It used to twitch violently as it was calibrating on initializing. Once, it reset and did that while testing. Luckily the person holding it managed to get his hands out of the handles on time.

Another tim the tip of one instrument had broken off and during initialization there was an error in the force applied in the direction along the shaft. It flew out like a rocket.

Society definitely needs to learn the internet is not the end all and be all. Take it with a large grain of salt unless you’re literally reading peer reviewed articles from reputable sources. Or it’s like a cooking recipe that you can verify for yourself and the stakes of being wrong are low. Even news should only be taken as a springboard for what’s going on.
I guess you can argue the definition of the word "password"; language is fluid, especially English.

I would say SRP is strictly a misnomer (though it's a useful conflation). Generally speaking password is a value provided for authentication (if it's no longer being "provided", as in SRP, it's something different... but I understand using a familiar word for that something different is helpful when communicating).

Either way, in saying TOTP was "just a password", the point you were trying to make was that TOTP is "no different than and therefore no better than a 2nd traditional password". The fact it's not transmitted makes it very different to, and better than, a traditional password. So whatever you want to define the definition as, the point stands.

> and no properties that passwords don't have

It has 1 property that passwords don't have: it is not transmitted!

> The operands are arranged horizontally in lisp instead of vertically, but the supposed weirdness of the operator being on the left doesn't seem to bother people when it comes to arithmetic.

I'm not sure I agree. I would argue that people read your example left to right, top to bottom, which would be "1 + 2". At least for people that read their native language this way. Maybe people who read from right to left would read "1 2 +" and be predisposed to Forth?

> i would correct this to "if you haven't been switching software engineering jobs every few years", which forces you to grind leetcode for months every time.

I know how obnoxious this is, but there are engineers out there (hi!) who can pass leetcode style coding interviews without studying because we love this stuff. I love algorithms and data structures. I'll happily discuss the relative advantages and disadvantages of vectors, linked lists, b-trees, etc for different tasks in a job interview. Or over dinner, or at the beach, or any and every time people let me get away with it. I've spent the last month or two optimising CRDTs, and I've used a bunch of data structure changes to improve performance in one of our benchmarks by 4500x (!)

The goal of the interview isn't to "force you to grind leetcode for months". They're trying to filter out candidates who would need to grind leetcode in order to explain how a hash table works. They're looking for engineers like me, who graduate at the top 15% or so CS classes. Algorithm and data structure questions are asked because lots of programmers never touch this stuff in their day jobs. The people who actually know this blindfolded are in demand because we're useful on large projects with novel systems architecture.

Thankfully, there's lots of other jobs out there where all they're looking for is a warm seat, closed jira tickets and happy customers. I go crazy doing jobs like that - so I'm glad lots of folks are around to do that work. If everyone was like me, we'd have 18 different web frameworks for every working website.

I sometimes wish we used two different names for our profession in the same spirit as "electrician" and "electrical engineer" being different roles. Then we might all waste less time applying for the wrong kinds of jobs.
I think I do relate a little to you and also a lot more to the parent comment.

I've managed to emigrate due to my own personal development as well, my family didn't have the means for that and my home country's society is very geared to rich folks getting opportunities: in school, universities, time enough to go through a good higher education, etc. I had to fight against all that and other odds stacked against me and finally "made it" out.

At the same time I felt like you sometimes, people would be fretting a lot about how I'm going to move, all by myself, to a new country, continent, hemisphere, culture and language. And it never phased me, I knew I wanted to do it and the thought that someone would be even a little reluctant on doing it was a bit alien.

Nowadays I can empathise with both mindsets, I'm a bit stuck in the middle: moving out was definitely an amazing and enlightening experience over time but I didn't have that awe about it until hindsight kicked in. Most of the feelings I had when moving were all about excitement and getting to experience new things, people, places.

I share the feeling when boarding the plane for moving and thinking "I made this happen" but I feel it much more intensely and beautifully during moments in my new city (that I've been for about 6 years now) where I look around and realise "I'm here and it's surreal I've made it here". This is the feeling I love the most, and it's constant, since I moved I never stopped catching these moments.
A password is information, something that can be freely duplicated.

The idea of "something you have" is that the thing can't be duplicated. As soon as it can, it's no longer "something you have". Any number of people might have it. A person who has it might not be you.

SMS hijacking, for example, converts your phone-based authentication to a password, where the password is your phone number. (Since an attacker who knows that number can pass the test.)

TOTP starts its life as a password.
Why is this comment greyed?
At the hyper visor level, I was under the impression that many VM’s are scheduled onto the same hardware CPU core.

One hardware core can be running 5 VMs at 20% capacity, and each VM owner will pay for 100% of their CPU capacity right? So in this case the landlord is renting your unused apartment to other customers then evicting them faster than you can open the door.

My point is cloud is benefiting from that ability and not passing it on the customers, which they could.
> You also have generations of successful entrepreneurs staying in the US and teaching the next generation. Entrepreneurship in EU is mostly a joke, good entrepreneurs are hard to find.

Uh, what? Wrong, at least for Germany, which is littered with internationally successful small and medium-sized companies. Compare https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mittelstand .

Edit: Unless you were refering to the kind of "entrepreneur" that burns millions of USD in VC money over the span of a couple years, fails to create anything that anyone is willing to actually pay money for, but produces a lot of insightful blog posts in that time. Yes, we don't have a lot of those here yet, but we're working on it.

The issue was that it was ONLY SMS - they immediately deprecated private certificates, 2FA "calculators" and other 2FA schemes.

After the security backlash they now backpedaled and implemented 2FA with ONLY apps. Apps that ONLY work on iOS and Google Android. I had endless calls from family where they couldn't access their banks anymore because they had a Huawei phone or a dumb phone. Banks are citing "security" as explanation why they can't use smartcards, hardware tokens or even bring apps to desktop computers or phones without Google services.

The funny part is - ALL banks did this at once. Why? Because the security consultants had "must have app" and "must check Google Safety net" on their check lists.

> Isn't Helium quite expensive here on Earth?

It was, until Republicans forced the depletion by sale of the US helium stockpile in 1995: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Helium_Privatization_Act_of_19...

The result was a market crash (because the stuff was sold for less than market value), it was only sort of fixed in 2013... which then led to a shortage in 2019 that got so massive it impacted science, which in turn only got resolved by corona killing off the demand for balloon helium and massively reducing the demand of industry (https://physicstoday.scitation.org/do/10.1063/PT.6.2.2020060...).

It is for this reason that it is misleading to say that lisp languages "have no syntax" - they do have considerable constraints on their structure. It's almost as if there's a third layer between "syntax" and "semantics" - or perhaps the word "syntax" conceals two distinct types of structure.

'QUIC' is quarter-inch cartridge. I approve of the name-change. Two computer technologies with the same name is A Bad Thing.
I guess a whole bunch of my opinions and experience based on reading about the different tech scenes. I'm not factoring in things like "employee happiness as a separate vector" (in my opinion, in this argument, that's "second place consolation prize" for Europeans justifying why their tech scene is better). I'm assuming that however terrible the US scene is claimed to be, it's can't be bad in the sense that any badness has not destroyed its productivity. It's still no. 1.

To me the point of a tech scene is to be large. As in dollar value. Generate capital in terms of valuations, market cap, revenue and funding for new ventures.

Attempt to summarize the experiences, readings that contribute to my view:

Number of startups in US. Size of tech companies. US tech scene companies ranking in world's largest organizations. Personal experience with those companies.

Size of China market. Number of Chinese tech billionaires. Number of massive Chinese tech companies, and their ranking in world's biggest companies/tech companies.

I don't think any hard analysis of the data is going to disprove my claim that world tech scene's are ranked: US, China (close second)

But if it did that would certainly be very interesting and high value information to me! :p :) xx

when asked if there are competitors, regardless of what we answered, the answer was wrong. that again proves my point that all that matters is that investors know you, and that requires a lot of time, which becomes extremely expensive if you are in silicon valley, and only affordable if you are already rich or have a family that’s rich, and do not have to build a product.
Take a look at query engines like Trino (formerly PrestoSQL) [https://trino.io/]. (Disclaimer: I'm a contributor to Trino).

I used it at a previous job to combine data from MongoDB, Kafka, S3 and Postgres to great effect. It tries to push-down as many operations as possible to the source too to improve performance.

Full ANSI SQL support over multiple number of backends (Kafka, Cassandra, Postgres, ClickHouse, S3 and many more).

The best part is it has a plugin ecosystem so you can very easily implement your own connectors and all the heavy lifting gets done by the core-engine while your plugin only has to abstract your backend to concepts that the engine can understand.

Ask HN: How to find sponsors for my open source projects?
Hi everyone,

since software is my passion, I work partially (in my free time) on open source projects. Some are mine and maintained only by me for the moment and some other are just different contributions. I like open source and want to improve the software world.

Long story short, I'm searching for possibilities to do this full time. I made my research and found that not only individuals but also many companies are starting to sponsor open source projects. However, it is not clear to me how or where to find such companies. Some of my open source projects are being downloaded 50k times a week or ~ 3 million times in total, so I'm certain that some devs are using them in daily life. However, like I said I have no idea how to find people who can sponsor me in order to do this full time.

This is the link to my github, where you can check the projects:
https://github.com/nidhaloff

I applied in the github sponsor program and I was already accepted. Am I missing something else?

Do you have any ideas/tipps on how to find people or rather companies that are willing to sponsor open source projects?
