Rotten Tomatoes has consistently been an excellent inverse indicator of what media I'll enjoy. A low critic score and high audience score means it's probably fun, see Venom for an example.

My favorite autocomplete library is an ancient version of bootstrap-typeahead.js by Twitter. A single file with less than 400 lines of Javascript. They don't make these anymore :)

I use it everywhere where I need autcompletion. For example on the Music-Map:

Yep. You should also be hosting and deploying from wheels[0], even for stuff you create internally. If you're doing it right, you'll end up hosting your own internal PyPi server[1], which, luckily, isn't hard[2].

We did this at one of my previous companies, and, of all the things that ever went wrong with our deploy processes, our internal PyPi server was literally never the culprit.

> based on unjustified distrust. Maybe some authorities deserve that, but states are made up by the people, and the people must fix that themselves.

It's disenfranchisement that even allows organizations like the CIA to do some of the things they do without fear of punishment. Pulling back completely is the last resort, not the first thing anyone ever tried. Also, it's up to Americans to change the CIA, not people in Pakistan. They react to it, but you can hardly blame them.
Is it worse or are we just getting better data on it? It seems just as likely that these states simply went unreported due to having nobody who was interested in listening. Might be that the quiet desperation has always been there, but now it gets voiced to a receptive audience.

You've trained your brain to be like this.

Try to spend at least 2 weeks without electronics(also TV) in some place remote. This should be enough to unwind your bad habits at least for a while. Since you're a developer you should be in place where you can afford this. If not it's time for a new gig, you deserve to have plenty of time for other activities. My point is you can't keep a car running with a broken engine.

Bonus tip: get redshift/f.lux on your machines and sleep with a sleep mask(don't cheap out). You'll be surprised.

Having high exhaust velocities does not mean you will have the high thrusts required to get yourself out of the earth's atmosphere. Most current proposals for Nuclear Fusion powered ships involve an exhaust that is orders of magnitude more diffuse than that of chemical rockets.

They only come into their own once they are already in space or in orbit which returns us to the problem that we need to have launch assist infrastructure that can deal with that first step without resorting to those "flamethrowers" as you call them.

It's also not true at all that fusion is necessary to allow for clean energy (even ignoring that many of the near term fusion reactor designs still need to have radiation shielding to deal with dangerous neutron emissions). We could use a combination of renewable sources and nuclear fission to deal with the energy crisis now and then utilise fusion once it's finally matured to the point of usefulness. Indeed, we could use that orbital infrastructure to help construct a planetary cloud of solar collectors that can operate 24/7 and beam that energy down via microwave rectiner technology that is already capable of achieving greater than 85% energy conversion (keep in mind that we lose far more energy simply from the diffusion of sunlight through the atmosphere). This approach not only can power the earth but any off earth colonisation prospects with line of sight with our planetary cloud - without needing to haul the likely massive early generation fusion reactors.

Neither is fusion necessary for advanced space travel. It would be very useful but chiefly for travel to under-developed sectors of the solar system. solar reflectors scaled up enough can be used to speed up and slow down entire fleets of ships with far higher potential top speeds than even antimatter drives permit (since there is no requirement to have onboard propellant). They also double as handy point defense systems for dealing with both debris and ships that are attempting to turn themselves into relativistic kill missiles - remember that there is no such thing as an unarmed space ship, they are all potential weapons of mass destruction, especially once we reach the state where we have fusion drive powered ones.

Wikipedia[1] says the patent for this expired in 2016. Interesting enough, it also mentions that Apple filed a similar patent for a "dynamically changing OLED keyboard" in 2007. I wonder if that project was abandoned or eventually morphed into the Touchbar. Personally, I think having the screen(s) be individual keys would be a huge usability improvement over the Touchbar which doesn't have the same tactile feedback.

My all-time highest HN comment was this: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23563997

Basically, why do I get such big raises when I switch companies, but getting a nontrivial raise when at a company is like pulling teeth?

How come every company I work for is willing to give me a huge raise and reward me for my achievements at other companies, and not do the same for achievements at that company?

The discussion that followed was illustrative. But I just came to accept it as a fact of life. I wish I could find a place to invest myself in long term, but that has yet to be found...
> TikTok's only interesting technology is its recommendation system

Come on, that's sorta like saying "Google's only interesting technology is its search algorithm" (I'm being a little loose here, but going back 20 years I'd say that's true). When it's the defining feature of your product, it's the only thing that matters and why it's the leader. Unless somebody can mimic TikTok's success, dismissing them seems arrogant.

> which I doubt is that different or innovative compared to Netflix or Youtube

Speaking from personal experience, Youtube has a horrible recommendation system, and Netflix is somewhere between okay and good.

Hey HN,

I have been working with the team at Data Revenue on this framework for the last several weeks (personally focusing more on the tutorials and documentation).

It's a set of terraform scripts that set up a Kubernetes cluster with Prefect, JupyterHub, MLFlow and some other open source platforms to create a cohesive and comprehensive machine learning platform.

It's still pretty rough, but you can get started with some basic examples to see how everything fits together. We are still tuning the default parameters and configuration, so if you have some Kubernetes experience you might get better mileage out if it (though I had nearly none before working on this and it was also a great way to learn that).

Shout if any questions - I'll be hanging out here for the next few hours and then again tomorrow morning EU time.

Depending what you mean by "review," then I agree with you.

If you mean having humans inspect every line of code of every package, well... good luck with that. But, if you're talking about automated analysis and acceptance testing, then, I think you've got something.

Like unit testing, automated testing and analysis is never going to catch 100% of all issues, but it can definitely help your SRE team sleep at night.
> Whatever number you come up with, treat it as the median of a long-tailed distribution (if it matters, the lognormal). To get the mean (expectation), multiply your estimate by about 1.6. To get the 95% confidence bound, multiply by 5. To get the 99% confidence bound, multiply your estimate by 10.

I like the idea of multipliers but the maths here is just meaningless fluff to justify a particular number. If your initial estimate really was a median then it would be an overestimate (i.e. the project ends up taking less time) in about 50% of cases. In practice I find that initial estimates are overestimates in about 0% of cases!
Most current fridges have a fan on the cold side to circulate the coldness all around, and rely just on convection to pull away the heat (excepting RV propane fridges, which don't have a cold-side fan and have very uneven temperatures, but do have a hot-side fan because otherwise they don't work on hot days)

Having had the evaporator fan go out in an old fridge once, I think you'll find fridge fans not as generic nor replacements as easy to find as you might hope.
Can you expand on that? What regulations require European banks to hold government bonds? If it's obvious to everyone that Euro bonds are too expensive, why don't American hedge funds short them?

I was under the impression that Euro-zone bond rates were so low mainly because the market is expecting economic stagnation and a too-hawkish ECB.
We might have been married to the same person... The lying is the kicker.

We had an agreement that the kid will go a certain school, after I bough her half of the house, someone changed their mind. I complied and moved to be in the zone of the new school, then someone changed their mind again. But the 2nd time it is go as court/lawyers sided with me.

I never discuss her with the kid, but I get same tidbits from him as you from your daughter. Children know a good parent, so just do your best. They will love you regardless of what they hear.

The latest thing was her not wanting to handover his medication on handover.

Ryan Dahl, (above mentioned creator of Deno), gave his second podcast interview ever this spring, it went live June 8th. [1]

It covers a lot of terrain including the connectivity permissions control.

I recommend it as an easy way to learn about Deno and how it is different from Node as it is today.

Node seems to have evolved to handle some of what Deno set out to do at the start. It is worth hearing from Dahl why Deno is still relevant and for what use cases.

Dahl speaks without ego and addresses interesting topics like the company built around Deno and monetization plans.

> The reason certain countries don’t like immigration is because a conservative faction wants to keep society in place.

This is so simplified that it is basically false. There are a range of reasons for not supporting immigration, but basically no one wants to "keep society in place". I will note that the USA had historically low immigration in the post-war period that was associated with rapidly rising wellbeing[0].

Based on the recent pipeline incident, it seems that these crime groups realize there are other places you'd better not mess around.

Is that pricing for an additional service that is optional, or is it required to operate the card? I'm confused.
That's one of the main complaints I have about all those measures that are being taken currently to become green.

Government officials are also talking about using tax money to rebuild all houses for the people affected by the recent floods that were without flood insurance. It's a huge middle finger to all those people who can't afford a house.

There are so many tax exemptions that exclusively apply to the rather well-off that I'm surprised that these issues are not coming up regularly when talking about social issues.

Examples include offices at home are only deductable if they have a door (applies to larger-than-necessary apartments or houses), you get money for driving to work rather than living nearby and walking (0.35€/km), a more expensive hybrid company car costs the employee a lot less than a privately owned ICE car, and many more.
Hmmm I see your point. Buzzword bingo is certainly not the intent, that is true. Perhaps, we need to be clear that while our _mission_ is to "enable the usage of Rust in the cloud", our _goal_ is to maintain existing repos within the org and take issue/discussion filer input for next steps.

I believe the issue is that I've blended "why we exist" with "what we are doing". I'll fix that. Thank you for the feedback.

All of those alternative sources of money require an individual to already be quite wealthy: capital income means capital assets; gifts/inheritances means wealthy family. At that point...it honestly doesn't matter how you get your money. Over my career I have provided tax consulting and compliance services to many HNW individuals, and income taxes were never once a disincentive to working. A person rich enough to choose how they earn their income works because they choose to.

(Note: payroll taxes such as FICA, etc., actually phase out pretty quickly after $100k in earnings, so they're regressive in nature. There is the high-wage supplemental tax, but this is offset by the cap on income subject to SSI tax, so workers earnings more than $140k actually pay less in payroll tax.)

That being said, I agree that capital gains should be treated as regular income (as it was historically, pre-Reagan) and that income received via gift/inheritance should not receive a FMV cost basis.

What is the damage that has been done?

What, specifically, is the impact to which you refer?
If you're going to attack mercantilism from a free trade perspective, the IMF is at the other end of that pole. That's where your ideas were tried and failed in practice.

South Korea, Japan, Taiwan and China are all huge success stories due to protecting nascent industries while they caught up with more industrialized states.
> Only upgrade when absolutely necessary.

Gotta disagree with this part. If you're making a web app package updates really need to be done on a regular cadence, ideally every quarter, but twice a year at minimum IMO. In the .Net world at least it feels like most responsible open source maintainers make it relatively painless to upgrade between incremental major versions (e.g. v4 -> v5). If you put off upgrades until someone holds a gun to your head so that your dependencies are years out of date, you're much more likely to experience painful upgrades that require a lot of work.

You have errors in you measurement, mostly in assuming employees only add a positive ROI when in fact their value can go negative. Thus doing the bare minimum is worth more than you think as long as the employee stays in the positive ROI (which I assume is the measure of bare minimum).

This article sounds very familiar. I'm sure to have read an article about the very same two languages' constructs a long time ago. It's dated this year, but I wonder if the author could be recycling an old text.
Yes, but this won't work because there's just not enough different things for an engineer to master. ;)

More seriously, your observation is brilliant (and almost makes me wish I hadn't just accepted a new role). Because the software field contains such a breadth of things to know and breadth of potential applications, it's hard to get very far without having the kind of mind that is motivated by some level of intrinsic interest, and that can be a currency in its own right.
Where is that assumption? I'm not seeing it in the claim.
They claim to be 10x cheaper.
Young people consume things that can be made at scale. The march of technology makes the things we buy cheaper, better, and more abundant. At the same time, it makes labor related to the production of that technology more valuable.

Old people consume 1:1 care. And as medical technology improves, elderly people survive increasingly complex conditions requiring increasingly labor-intensive management. At the same time, work with scalable impact is still getting more valuable, so 1:1 care positions have to pay more to win workers, so 1:1 care gets more expensive (cost disease).
Yes, although you can have multiple sheets each with a million rows. Kind of like sharding.

But I’d be fascinated what kind of system spec is required to get good performance on those kind of numbers. I’ve been on a Mac for years, where Excel is crippled by limitations.

Those things should be split out then, so there isn't a coin attached to it.

Even if you're right - 100% of the time, about 100% of people - the value of having the one guy who remembers why it was done this way and how it was fixed last time it broke available to look at it when it needs looked at is priceless.
Everyone always thinks along the lines of current biological limitations when talking about space travel while ignoring the huge advances that are being made in biotechnology. Given another 100 years I think we’ll be pretty good at customizing our biology to suit our needs.

> The planet is a massive place, the mass majority of it uninhabited. Not for long.

The water, food, and logistics concerns that have driven human habitation patterns forever haven't gone away, and show bo signs of going away for a long time. Is it possible to support habitation in places that aren't currently well-settled? Sure, but it's expensive, and that's not going to change relative to the places that are well-settled.

We actually work only with professionally managed workspaces, meaning offices like WeWork (resp. their competitors). We have added 2-3 spaces which we call "alternative workspaces" that are close to residential areas to have a better coverage. There is for example the Furama Hotel in Singapore, which has converted a part of their event space into a co-working space. This space is open 24/7h (as it's a hotel), co-working spaces tend to close at 8 or 9pm and many of them are not accessible on Sundays, which is not ideal.
