The best way for you to come out ahead is to build the software yourself (you retain the IP) and license the software to your friend. You should work out a licensing agreement based on revenue (kinda like the app store, Apple always gets 30%, etc) for a period of time, I'm thinking about 3 years. After that point, you can renegotiate a new subscription.

Should the company become really successful, they'll either continue paying you or hire another firm to rebuild the software. Since you're licensing the software, they would no longer be able to use it after expiration, and likely won't have time to rebuild on the fly without impacting revenue.

Just having a 'profit sharing' or even 'revenue' sharing agreement won't be enough. The internet is replete with accounts of founders shuttering one business and opening up a new 'business' with all the same property and none of the liabilities. While it might not be legal, it will be a very difficult battle for you to win, especially if the other party has better cash flow.

Just be careful not to run afoul of the GPL or other copy-left licenses if you distribute the software to your friend's company. If you are able to host it for them (eg, you are providing a SaaS type offering), this would be even better, unless of course you're doing something illegal, in which case I'd recommend not having any part in it.
'entr' will use inotify where available - the utility is that it's 1) cross-platform and 2) easy to integrate with shell scripting (rather than having to write a more complete inotify or other platform-specific tools).

As an example, I use 'guard' [0] in a docker container, and on test failure it writes out to a file which is shared outside the container. It's easy for me to fire up a shell script that uses 'entr' to watch those files and pop up notifications when tests fail.

I think that's not true. Qatar leads the list (and Kuwait, Oman, UAE are also up there), and countries like Canada, Australia are also ahead of the US (I imagine in part b/c of heating and cooling?).

Most game development is not funded by a rich person just handing a development studio a chunk of money and saying "build this". It's funded either off the profits of a previous endeavor, or, these days, through Kickstarter.

And while I certainly support worker cooperatives as a company model, even that doesn't require funding for new initiatives to be "democratically allocated by employees of the company". There's still usually at least some form of hierarchy.

We really need to get over the worship of rich people in this country. Having more money than God doesn't mean they should be treated like gods. In fact, what it means, in almost every case, is that they exploited workers in some form or other to get their fortune. The only exceptions I know of are people like MacKenzie Scott, who got their billions from someone who exploited workers to get their fortune.
Teams already has this, so it's only a matter of time before Zoom adds it.
Yup and that 0.5% is pretty darn flavourful.

Can you imagine that perhaps there are factors that make a man killing and torturing a man different from a man killing and torturing a woman? Surely you can, sexual dimorphism is a thing! What if I told you there is a type of sexual dimorphism that exists in society wherein women are treated entirely differently than men?

In fact, what if equality didn't mean murdering an equal number of men and women in video games, and instead that is just a silly distraction? I promise you no serious people are discussing the ratio of sexes killed in video games to do anything impactful.
Agreed. I posted this exact thing in a comment the other day and it got downvoted. If you get an invitation to a party, you don't just automatically accept, you would (or should) question whether you will enjoy this party. A meeting should be the same, except it's not about enjoyment but about worth. What are you expected to contribute to the meeting? What will you gain by attending? If this isn't clear, ask for clarification. If it's still not clear, decline the invitation.

I see Mozilla always complaining about privacy matters and violations of its largest partner, critiquing the very hand that feeds them and they still take in the money that keeps them alive and accounts for 80% of their entire revenues YoY.

That partner is Google, the anti-privacy company that stands against what Mozilla is fighting for and supporting (and also funds many other open-source projects). Nothing has happened or changed and zero repercussions for Google's actions. The same for Crystal.

I do not think you will find any clean hands in the tech industry and everyone knows it.

The compressive strength is actually pretty good if you use the high-end stuff. I would be skeptical of the cost-benefit versus other common fills.

I almost spit out my coffee when I saw the section on levees and the anchors "(if necessary)" annotation. I would be very reluctant to market an extremely low-density product as a barrier for flood protection applications. It really makes me wonder about the rest of the statements in the brochure.
I like how the show "Halt & Catch Fire" used this topic as a plot within the show. You had the Google-esque team of laborious devs unhappily stressed on coming up with the perfect algo, then you had the Yahoo-esque team of party atmosphere humans scanning the web for things to highlight/promote/scan/etc.
Even the name screams transparent fraud, a ridiculously obvious attempt to associate with Tesla.

I absolutely agree, which is my primary concern with enforcing vaccination uptake. I have trouble picturing a world where we can have those rights remain strong while also forcing folks to be vaccinated.

First set of crowns on the phone, move fast. Second set on desktop, completely type the answer. Weave in stories once you feel like you have a foundation. Add immersion from live streams/Netflix. This takes you to at least B2.

There's an unsurprising amount of ignorant responses and strawmen in the thread, kind of sad.

One big reason to review the code
Same here. When I need information on a product I want to buy, I will either go to a specific subreddit or, in the case of tech, a YouTuber that I trust to see if they have a review of it.

Amazon and Google are certainly not where I go to find credible information on products anymore. I advise my friends to do the same now
Interesting perspective from someone who can legitimately compare the experience…

I disagree with how it is characterized that Americans are rationalizing healthcare costs as a result of being wrapped up in emotions. While emotions certainly influenced most decisions being made at the time, the costs didn’t feel even remotely in the realm of something that can be controlled. The nature of emergencies (such as the birth of a child in this context), the fact that the costs aren’t even communicated until months go by, and the fact that healthcare coverage is tethered to your employer (resulting in a spectrum of experiences) are all aspects that I believe serve to maintain the status quo.

For instance, with this pandemic… I was laid off, and while I was incredibly fortunate to be able to have multiple options for new employment, it caused unnecessary stress on ensuring health care coverage was continuous. It also played a role in how I ultimately chose which company I decided to work for despite the difficulty I have generally experienced in getting prospective employers to be forthcoming about their health insurance options. And some things just literally aren’t available such as whether your current doctors / specialists are considered “in-network” —- which really matters when in the context of a helping a premature child get “caught up” in life. Oh, and I don’t want to forget pointing out that changing employers also resets those deductibles and max out-of-pockets…

In any case, thanks for sharing the perspective.

In any free society you need consent of the governed. And especially on the topic of security, there are a lot of diverging opinions.

Does abortion cause harm to human life? Not wanting to enflame anything, but I don't think there are easy answers here. Especially in this case and the danger Covid poses, I believe mandatory vaccination isn't justified by a security argument.
I found my childhood to be boring, bordering on depressing. It was literally for a lack of stimulation for the following reasons:

- Only child.

- Invalid mother, so no access to all that entails: no car, no ability to get to places to do stuff, and all limitations related to health concerns.

- Father worked all day.

- I lived in a small, dark apartment with no internet, no cable, and no nearby friends.

Of course a kid is gonna find ways to entertain himself; I wandered the neighborhood, watched broadcast TV, played with my toys, etc.

But the general tone of my childhood can be summed up in a typical weekend: since dad is at work and mom is disabled and sleeps all day, I build my day around the newspaper TV guide. Just boring crap on until I Love Lucy comes on at 4 PM. Fill the cracks in with bouts of random wandering around the neighborhood by myself, but no kids around to play with.

Things changed as I grew and got more agency, but my formatives years of like 0-10 were pretty much this. Not ideal; I therefore have pretty strong opinions about giving my kids structure and access to their interests.

Yes, and my apologies. Your comment made it sound like you were new at this. But I think I found your profile on LI. If so, you are clearly highly experienced, and what you have done is pretty impressive. I'm not surprised that you get top reviews.

Also impressive that you have the professionalism to continue this despite your low mood.

Wish I could help more with the 'what you are doing wrong' bit. I wouldn't use those words, you probably aren't doing anything wrong. It sounds like you just miss being in the same room as your team. I get that, the human contact is real, and on-line is a thin and stale version of it.

You can be an effective leader either way, but yeah, emotionally there isn't a substitute for getting everyone in the same room.
Imagine thinking learning ONE phoneme is a hard task... Please never have a look at Arabic or you'll have a stroke.

Moreover [ɾ] can be replaced by [l] perfectly fine and the vowel devoicing is not something you need to do anyway (it's not even occurring in all dialects). So even searching really hard for "difficulties" you can't find even one thing that is remotely difficult which just proves my point.
about 20+ years ago I found myself single after a long term relationship.

I expermented with many things that would work in dating, one of the things I tried was having a shower earlier on in the day I was going out (about 3-5 hours before) and make sure I do some sort mild excercise - walking/ houswork etc after the shower (and only having a little smell/ perfume on me)

obviously all my observations were subjective, but it felt like it made a difference on my success rate - whether it was that or it raised my confidence I've no idea
If you assume there is nothing you can do to change someone's mind, there is little to no reason to interact with them with regards to that thing. Without that interaction, you won't get their concerns and criticisms. Not interacting with people about something you and they disagree on is a good way to make sure there's nothing they can do to change your mind, and I wouldn't be surprised if they view you in a similar way to how you described them originally.

The only solution to that is to engage, and engage with the assumption that change is possible, for both of you. Otherwise you're just lecturing someone, and that's not engagement.

Tether, either a scam or a criminal money laundering enterprise (or both), has a market cap of over $50B. DOGE, a joke based on an old meme of a Shiba Inu, has a market cap of over $1B.

Not only is the real Tesla's market cap not irrational, at this point I'd say any company that actually has anything of value should be valued in the hundreds of billions. The pizza place around the corner should be at least $100B in that they actually make something.

I totally see your confusion. Our intended audience is online cohort-based programs.

Think online courses, bootcamps, or private commmunities.

Google calendar is great for 1-on-1 and small groups, but when you're managing hundreds of zoom events for a number of different subgroups within a larger community, it's a nightmare.
Definitively, blitzjs is extremely good full-stack framework to build applications and there are a lot of things we can learn from them.

Nextless.js is different compared to blitzjs, here is the feature which aren't available in blitzjs:

- Payment integration

- Dashboard UI

- Landing Page

- Infrastructure as code

- Deploy in Serverless environment

Nextless.js focus on SaaS application and help you build your SaaS product faster.
Have been tracking this coming for a while. Fascinating to see them move into consumer space.

The article mentions “hobbyist weather trackers” as one group of potential users.

What are some of the other ideal use cases?
What if I told you that it is, but you’re not the target user? When you’re serving billions of users, there are going to be niche groups not worth catering to. I would bet most people are quite happy with the results.

Just like most people are happy with their experience at Apple Stores whereas I feel like they’re pandering and annoying because I know exactly what I’m looking for or what the problem is and they’re still asking me basic questions unintentionally wasting my time. I’m not the target demographic they’re catering to. It’s fine, I just deal with it.

This is interesting but, unfortunately, not surprising. Product Hunt is social media for founders and it has all of the problems of the other social media sites.
I think it's because some Nations with higher per-capita emmissions (like Qatar) are teensy and can't do much about their heavy outputs (desalination, aircon take a lot of energy). The US is huge, is visible on the top per-capita list and is also the 2nd largest emitter overall. Given that the US is a first world economy, is extremely consumerist and has a love affair with gas-guzzling cars, it's likely that by simply making better choices, the US could likely cut more % per-capita than Qatar. And given their size, that would have impact on a global scale.

That's great that you are setting boundaries!

To add to what you wrote. If someone doesn't respect themselves and their own boundaries, then it's going to be harder for others to respect them. And they are putting the onus of figuring out exactly where those boundaries lie on their manager/peers. Which you could argue is part of a manager's job, but it's a risky strategy to rely on your manager to do that job, especially given that many if not most managers don't consider that part of their job. Also, everyone has different boundaries, and it's not easy to figure out what those are.

Also, setting boundaries forces the people to face reality. If every time there's a problem someone takes care of it, people won't notice that there's a problem.

That being said, setting boundaries is hard and I think everyone struggles with it sometimes. I know I do.
> What's currently called "AI" is not that much different from that program.

It's pretty significantly different to that program, both in terms of scope, complexity and output.

I'm going to assume by "person" we mean some kind of intelligence which appears to be self-aware, or that can interact with humans to make it difficult to distinguish between human and machine (what's a human in terms of thinking, if a machine can output the same thoughts?)

We aren't anywhere near there yet, but if you contrast the 1981 chess program's ability to be considered a "person" vs GPT-3's ability to be considered a "person", the second is substantially closer to that end position.
I can appreciate the practical considerations that require setting a precise time for an armistice to go into effect. However, looking at that first image in the article of the readout from sound ranging equipment just before and after the armistice, the thing that stands out to me is how pointless the last couple of artillery shells before a scheduled cease-fire seem.

I suppose without the benefit of hindsight you could argue that one side or the other might have gained a slight advantage with those last shots if hostilities restarted. But knowing the outcome, it just feels really bizarre to think about those last moments.
This is an awesome feature request. Thank you!

No, you have to take in account energy usage and pollution attributed to the consumer of at the end of the production chain.

E.g. if you import a phone from China you have to account for the energy usage and pollution as yours.
This is well put. There is also the idea that as armies got MI-24s/AH-64s, etc, opposing forces got Stingers/Iglas. Perhaps it will play out in a way where once armies get drones, OpFor gets counters - jamming / hacking / EM / whatever.
This looks interesting, I despise Google Slides or whatever it's called. I have a question though: the biggest issue we've had lately is the actual presentation of a deck over Zoom or Teams etc. - there's two problems with this generally, one is that the presentation is running over video and can look awful at the other end, the other is that with more than one person doing the talking, there's a lot of "next slide please". Does Ludus solve either of these?

Out of pocket expenses for any individual is capped $8550 regardless of whether they have family coverage or individual coverage. Additionally, those earning less than 250% the federal poverty level qualify for additional cost sharing reductions (CSR) which dramatically lower the out of pocket expenses, e.g deductibles and copays. Details will vary but a family of four with a household income of $30k with CSR would have their deductible reduced to a few hundred dollars and annual out of packet caps also to the hundreds of dollars range. The same plan without CSR might have a $7000 deductible. But CSR is available in the situation you describe.
