I strongly disagree with this, because the GP has used the term "harmed investors". I think it's a dangerous practice to go around claiming other people's posts are tongue in cheek. That's how we come to allow 'locker room talk'.

Good answer!
Wiretrustee uses kernel Wireguard if available, therefore the performance is the same as plain Wireguard.

There are some caveats though. We use a fixed mtu value of 1280 to be on a safe side while wg-quick dynamically detects the best value. We will improve it.

If the Wireguard kernel module isn't available (true for older Linux, Mac and Windows) then userspace implementation is used (wireguard-go) which is slower.
I think his “boy” mistake was not getting the context that was obvious to the work’s main audience, Jamaicans, when he was reviewing a show as a (diaspora) Jamaican. Which I agree is a very forgivable mistake and probably nobody outside of social media would take him to task on it.

To the broad point, as an artist and also a collector I say emphatically No. Some of the best art is subtle and requires a lot of engagement to “get.” The striking, like the large, is often overrated.
VentScape is a large, anonymous, chat room where all messages fade away and disappear after a few seconds, an idea born out of my deepest loneliness during the height of the pandemic.

The anonymity, ephemerality, and other features work together to provide the quickest, easiest way to have fun conversations online — the kind of social interaction I personally wished I had more of throughout the many lonely months of 2020.

Originally imagined as a minimalistic space to vent anonymously and see others doing the same in real-time (something I personally wanted, believed had psychological benefits, and was disappointed didn't already exist), after the site got posted on HN and Reddit I slowly realized that the real magic was oftentimes in the fun, spontaneous conversations people would have on it. I then began rehashing the idea and working on a new and refined version in React Native with a friend.

This new React Native version of VentScape got to a good spot so I posted it to HN a few weeks ago. It didn't receive much attention, I think in large part due to it being a TestFlight download link instead of just an immediately useable web app. I worked on refurbishing the web app after this experience, (essentially realizing that it's far easier to use a web app than downloading a TestFlight app) which is what I'm here today to Show HN.

I'd love to hear any feedback you may have on the site, or to discuss anything about the engineering or the idea itself (whether that be its philosophy, psychology, or anything else). Thank you so much, and cheers.

This didn’t fit in with the above but dang said y’all might find this interesting:

While developing VR experiences optimized for relaxation, we discovered different visual elements that most universally resonated across varying populations. We discovered horses resonated as an animal that represented comfort and relaxation with the majority of study participants who tried Flowly experiences. We had multiple participants who cried in relief after spending time with horses in our VR experiences. An unexpected discovery from all our testing.
It is interesting that you bring up wet bulb temperature, when TFA answers your question using just that measurement.

I'm aware of them, but the problem with that is you can only compare an object by instance if I recall correctly. There's no way to override the hashing and equality check that I could find, meaning even for simple objects you're basically forced to serialize your keys in some way still, which is disgustingly inefficient and slow for no good reason.
> Requesting dynamically means that RAM is allocated while a program is running, not at compile or simply launch time. That is a software consideration.

Yes, that's part of my point. The lawsuit and patent clearly say dynamic/static RAM, they never talk about software and never mention requesting/allocating memory, dynamically or otherwise.
I would call this an absurd outcome. This guy is a public figure, and it doesn't seem like anything bad actually happened to him as a result of the trolling. So how in the hell is a six-figure payout justified?

Show HN: Keep track of what companies to divest from and why
Hello Hacker News!

This is my first project submission here!

Companies have always thought of bad PR as "one day events" and "people will forget about it so it's fine to keep doing it" has long been how they behave that resulted in the situations we are in today.

Divest.WTF is about giving stakeholders in our society like you and I a voice, because stakeholder capitalism would not work when stakeholders don't have a platform raise our concerns and make our votes count.

The site is very simple right now. You can tag a tweet as a reason why someone should want to divest from a company and a page like this will be created for you to share and raise awareness.

I'm hoping to add the ability to see trending divest calls and a company specific page so by the time earning calls come we can find find the issues again and trend the issues them via social media since since that's when most people are following individual companies.

Would love any feedback, questions and advice on how we can make this better!

Certain schools of philosophy/religion/meditation are devoted to moving past these unconscious processes and making these choices conscious.

If you sit with a bowl of snacks next to you as you work, you may find that your hand wanders by itself over to the doritos and delivers them to your mouth, where you chew and swallow barely even noticing as your keyboard becomes covered in cheese dust and grease. It is also possible to make a conscious decision to do the same thing, or to decide not to eat them at all. An intermediate is to move the snacks away so you can work without wrestling your subconscious. Unconscious choice is very, very common but it does not mean concscious choice is impossible.

Are you sure about that? It seems pretty out in the open.
This happens to basically all the women of enough notoriety that I follow on Twitter. It's usually a single individual, but often it's someone being extremely offensive and not technically defamatory. I don't think there's much legal action to take in those cases.

A 200,000,000B file vs 200,000,512B makes essentially no difference when purchasing hardware, planning storage, moving data, sizing systems etc.

Someone telling me a file is 200MB when they mean 200MiB (210MB) can make a difference, which is why we should strive for accuracy.
Reading the article is important here. The person that was being sued is settling (paying a 6-figure sum) and staying anonymous. They could have fought they case, but they apparently had enough money and were worried about being outed, that it was worth just paying and hiding.

It's disturbing but makes sense in a lot of business contexts. Imagine I own a business and I have a key employee who has a unique skill. And if they were to die, my business would have serious problems. It makes sense to take out a life insurance policy on that person to protect my lost revenue.

Or let's say I have a business partner, we own the business 50/50. It makes a lot of sense for each of us to have a life insurance policy on the other person to make up for the fact that the business might likely die if the person does.

Where it's kind of screwed up is when Walmart takes out policies on their front line retail employees and doesn't tell them as a way of diversifying revenue.

No, the US gets this right, and this case would be thrown out promptly were it in American jurisdiction (well, presumably - I don't know the extent of the "trolling" since the article is scant on detail, but I assume it's nothing over-the-top or they would have brought it to light to support their case). There's a much higher bar to establish defamation against Public Figures in the US -- as there should be. They are famous, they can deal with and expect to be trolled. That's part of the deal of being famous - you have haters. I don't think anyone should have to pay out because they trolled a famous person on Twitter.

> Don’t forget the set -euo pipefail at the beginning of your script. What does -euo means? I don’t know, I copy-pasted it and man set said there is no manual entry for set.

Use "man bash" to find the list of built-in commands. Scroll way down, or search for "SHELL BUILTIN COMMANDS".

The "e" command-line switch to the set command tells the script to exit immediately if there is a non-zero return value. The "u" switch tells the shell to treat unset variables as errors when performing parameter expansion. The "o" switch enables the following option (in this case "pipefail"). "pipefail" tells the script to return the value of the rightmost command that returned with a non-zero value in a pipeline. This is all paraphrased, the details are in the man page.

> A lot of what is commonly believed about socialist countries is in fact propaganda by capitalists. Most of the actual problems were and are caused by being under constant siege by capitalist countries.

The way I'm reading this is that the problems in Stalin Russia, Maoist China, Khmer Rouge Cambodia, North-Korea, etc. was/is caused by capitalist countries. And while these were "the worst of it", the practical implementations in many other countries wasn't exactly great either. I don't know of a single example where it worked well, and that's not for lack of trying.

I'm not sure if this is what you meant. It would help being a bit more concrete.

Just kidding, but here in the US you have harassment which is usually a criminal matter and then libel/slander. You can pretty much say whatever you want about a public figure like a politician ad long as it isn't threats, unless your AOC cause she thinks saying she has bad hair is a threat. One of the things a lot of people think from being naive is that if people are saying it online and not getting sued then it must me true, which is how some conspiracies spread.

Parse.ly | Python Data Engineers (Americas) and Machine Learning Engineers (Europe) | Remote | Full-Time | https://parse.ly

Are you a Python programmer based in North or South America, interested in large-scale data processing (terabytes per month, petabytes in our archive), and making use of massively-parallel computing architectures, such as those behind Spark and Dask? Or, are you a Machine Learning Engineer in Western or Central/Eastern Europe, interested in making use of modern ML techniques atop an open source Python stack? If so, then you should apply for our fully distributed team, since we are hiring for both roles.

Python Data Engineers[1] write code that runs on hundreds of cloud nodes, using best-in-class distributed database technologies like Kafka, Cassandra, and Elasticsearch. Machine Learning Engineers[2] use cutting-edge techniques to move our analytics, recommendation, and natural language processing stack forward; they have built working production systems using word embeddings, topic clustering, and deep learning. Together, members of these two teams power a massive time series analytics engine and content crawl database that offers an elegant user experience to hundreds of enterprise customers. And we do all of this on a team that's small enough to be nimble, but large enough to be dangerous. 15 total engineers, growing to 25 by the end of 2021.

Join us to build the world's best content analytics system. Apply at work@parsely.com with a couple paragraphs describing why you're interested, and mark your subject line as either"Python Data Engineer via HN" role (if in North America or South America) or "Machine Learning Engineer via HN" role (if in Western or Central/East Europe). A link to any portfolio/code you think is relevant, and/or your CV.

You'd be entering our hiring process early, as we only just kicked off our hiring wave in June, 2021, after Parse.ly's recent acquisition by Automattic[3] -- one of the world's largest fully distributed teams, and one of the biggest champions of open source and open web technologies.

Depends on the app/arch. If you're doing a stateless SPA, the cost is trivial. For example, my org deploys _every_ commit as a preview env. That's thousands of preview envs each month, which we then run E2E automation tests against, to validate each commit.

"When there are enough of these tombstones, the hash map gets rebuilt, but that’s OK. Due to the magic of amortized constant time, this doesn’t slow you down on average."

If amortized time is all you care about, that's fine. But there are some applications where worst case time is more important, and unfortunately I've seen some hash map implementations that implicitly assume that the worst case never matters.

Claiming Personal responsibility for 100% of the issues is a cop-out.

We have a complex society. There are many complex issues at hand, and I cannot personally afford to fully research every single one of them all the time. Don't kid yourself -- no one can.

Therefore I pay a service to hire experts, make recommendations, take any necessary actions, and hold others accountable. Additionally, I have some say in who gets to appoint these experts.

My personal responsibility extends to paying my taxes, and participating as much as I can in government, so I can be sure myself + my children can continue to enjoy a life + future where they are safe, and can pursue whatever useful skill they can, can be respected, and are protected against those who would waste no time downplaying or hiding truths for short term gain.

What I want, is to be able to find a repair shop locally that would repair the glass on my Oneplus 8 Pro that I smashed in the first week of owning it. It fell all of 4 inches from the arm of the sofa onto the side table, and smashed because of shitty design wrapping the glass round the edge which was totally unnecessary.

Oneplus will repair it for £200 for the part PLUS tax PLUS shipping PLUS labour and I'll have to ship it out of the country somewhere and wait a number of weeks they won't disclose to have my phone back. Heck, they won't even tell me how much the labour cost _might_ be.

If they'd sell the parts and allow one of the many phone repair shops in the UK to fix it, I could have it within an hour or two for little more than the cost of the screen itself.

This isn't about making your devices shitty, fat and not-waterproof, it's about enabling people with the wills and the skills to buy the tools and the parts to do the job.

Heck, under a good right-to-repair, I could buy the screen myself and fit it if I wanted.

So many people miss the point of right-to-repair. It's not about making things less this or less that, it's simply about giving you the RIGHT to buy the parts you need and the tools you need to repair the thing you own.
