They're reusing the whole rocket, not just the engine. In many SpaceX launches, you can see the carbon deposits left on the side of the rocket from its previous flights.
I agree with you, but i also think as i wrote before in another reply, another issue i would like to submit to you as a lawyer with experience in law, reading the TOS to me seems something to make you feel relatively good on the moment but most of it retain the right to change those after you've bought something, what do you think about that?
If the maintainer is sane, then that would be one advantage over uwebsockets.
> Obviously, Netflix used streaming, collaborative filtering recommendations, and a massive CDN to replace cable TV subscriptions.

Then Disney, HBO, and CBS are now tech companies.

To stretch your analogy, you might even argue that Target and Walmart are tech companies too. Or UPS, DHL, and FedEx. They do massive scale logistics using computers.

I would go by a different definition for tech. Are engineers the principal innovators and expense driving the company forward? Are automation, growth, measurement, iteration, and hard problems a chief mindset? That's what tech is to me. You could even meet those definitions without being an internet company. SpaceX, Tesla...

Good catch, I had been thinking of another study which looked specifically at only changing names on resumes. That's:

Are Emily and Greg More Employable than Lakisha and Jamal? A Field Experiment on Labor Market Discrimination

https://www.nber.org/papers/w9873

In any event, its not a single study that's looked at this. Have a look at this meta-analysis of 24 studies

I think it's you who are ignoring the problem. You say that by freezing a particular Base64 interface into std, Rust programmers lose the opportunity to take advantage of more efficient interfaces. But that's obviously not the case. std can just host the best general-purpose Base64 interface, a "good enough" implementation, and people who are fussy about their Base64's can use any crate they like. That's what happens with the Go standard library, and, in fact, it's also what happens in Rust (for instance, with the Nix crates).

I don't think you've thought this all the way through. This last response of yours seems more reflexive than contemplative; for instance, it suggests that breaking changes are no big deal, because they're small breaking changes. That's not how breaking changes work! Indeed, I feel like everyone who's ever worked in a totally undisciplined package ecosystem (I'm not saying Rust is one of those) knows what the end result of this is: hours of brain surgery figuring out how to reconcile incompatible dependencies-of-dependencies.
C# static constructor called multiple times
Exactly right. And I, as a consumer, would consider content as the primary driver. An efficient delivery mechanism is already (or soon will be) commoditized. Bad content delivered efficiently won't drive profits.
The Impact of Community Masking on Covid-19 [pdf]
Yeah, considering how long it has taken the US to adopt PayWave tech that Canada and Europe have been using for almost a decade now, this doesn't really surprise me.
Thanks for sharing! This market of virtual trainers is a huge opportunity and I hope you can make a splash in it.

If it's helpful, here's some critical feedback:

> For the last few years, we’ve been on a journey to “get six pack abs”.

This sounds like it's taken you years to get a 6-pack which isn't too inspiring. Plus, most fitness sites showcase the before/after photos. But on your site there aren't any photos that this program actually works.

> we started off by launching a free cohort, and signing up 20 people. Over 43% said they’d be very disappointed if Consistent stopped to exist.

Yeah, I'd be disappointed if I was getting something for free too and it stopped being free. The bigger question is how much they'd pay to keep going with the program. Is it $200/mo?

> So far, folks have lost an average of 5LBs over the last 2 months

That's not a really meaningful stat without knowing their starting bodyweight and fitness. And anyone can lose weight by eating in a caloric deficit, but are they getting the 6-pack abs you're advertising? If you want to be a 6-pack abs (or muscle-building) company, I'd focus on that as your primary stat rather than weight loss.

> Solutions in the space are fragmented, have poor technology, and rarely deliver

I can think of a few direct competitors with good tech and good reputations:

* https://mycopilot.com/ ($69/mo)

* https://www.future.co/ ($149/mo)

I'm not affiliated with either company, but I have used CoPilot and really enjoyed it.

At $200/mo what are you offering that those companies don't?

> If at any point you choose to leave the program (even 1 day before close), you can get your money back.

Sounds risky to me. Why wouldn't I quit with 1 day left and get my $799 back? What value is the app to me after the last day?

> We require you weigh yourself everyday, log your food everyday, and log your exercise everyday.

Logging food is hard and can feel exhausting to many people. I realize that getting your caloric intake right is a huge component of fitness, but there's a huge audience that wants to get fit without it taking over their life. You're targeting an audience that is willing to make a 4-month commitment to tracking their entire food intake every day. That sounds necessary for those interested in elite athlete / model fitness, but not so necessary for the majority of athletic-inclined folks that want to get back into shape. Is your more intensely focused audience big enough?

> In addition you need to send a reflection once a week as well as a shirtless progress photo.

Might want to wordsmith or rethink this. "Send me a shirtless photo once a week" sounds a little creepy. There are other ways to track fitness progress like benchmarking an exercise like pushups, pullups, L-sits, etc.

> If you continue to be non-compliant

Might want to wordsmith this too. "Non-compliant" makes it sound like you're building a dystopian fitness app. Instead of a stick, maybe think of a carrot that you can give users that are consistent with their progress? Like a leaderboard, achievements, discounts on future products / services, etc.

Good luck!
This looks like one of the many grouping-addons that firefox has, just a better look. It doesn't seem to say anything at all about the actual features besides those three animations? Or is my adblocker just removing something important?

Anyway, as someone who has used all kind of flavors of grouping in firefox (and still is using it with tree style tabs now), I can say that grouping is nice, but on the long run not nice enough. It helps to organize your mess, but the lack of effortless integration into something outside your browser is a real problem for serious work.

Maybe MacOS can offer some ways there, I remember in the past they had good options via applescript.
- Easily add new blocks using the drag&drop feature;
- Embed a form on the website or share a link to the form;
- Restrict the access to the form by time or the number of responses;
- Customize the style of forms;
- Get email notification of new replies. The message body can be customized and made dynamic;
- Export answers to XLSX, CSV;
- Redirect upon completion of filling out the form;
- Ready-made templates;

I tried the try for free button.

The run took longer than my attention span. Since I'm not a potential customer, that's not a data point.

On the other hand, adding some text to the code editor page quantifying in minutes and seconds how long running example code will take would be a low effort way to manage user expectations.

Setting the context as a proof of concept is ok. It's honest. Letting people know it will be slow is good because it is honest, too.

Give people evidence that you can be trusted. Javascript that runs on back-button mouse over is not where to put your efforts. Good luck.
It’s strange that this happened. Did COVID just cause everyone to stop investing for a bit, leading to all these downstream problems? Or was this gonna happen anyway?
If it's solved, why is the UI for any other content streamer as seamless on my roku as the Netflix one. All the others, I might as well be using a 13 channel rotary dial still. Even Prime sucks, just try rewinding or fast forwarding a minute and see how frustrating that is.
You did imply plenty though, by putting it in the same category as _Lisp_.
This is the way these platform APIs are designed, you could theoretically make a screen reader that doesn't need that and just asks the app to recompute its state every time, but they don't currently work that way.
Sure, it's created out of hot air and instead of interest you have crazy transaction fees.
Unfortunately, my iPhone SE 1st gen is still doing really well, and will be supported by iOS 15, and it's hard to justify ~$800 on a new phone when my current one was $300. I'm considering buying a 12 Mini if the price drops after the 13 Mini is out...
Actually, there is. I've met 10's of HN'ers in person, this account is many years old and in pretty good standing, on top of that I have regular contact with the mods and many others on here IRL.

You probably should have picked a different account than mine to try this particular line with.

You're kidding right? Netflix, HBO Max, Amazon Prime Instant Video, CBS All-Access, whatever, they all do basically the same thing, and the only differentiator for my parents is the content.
You're joking right? The "bad currency" here is clearly Bitcoin, which cannot actually be used to buy things in 99.999% of global market situations. If El Salvadorian businesses want to buy computers, trucks, fertilizer, food, whatever, BTC is meaningless and will need to get converted to USD.
I love it. Use it on mobile & desktop in combination with DuckDuckGo going on for about a decade now. For both development and personal browsing. So you are not alone.

I have the feeling you don't really care about El Salvador's homicide rate.
What do type annotations actually get you? So far, cpython only stores them and makes them available for retrieval. This is a sore point for me -- batteries not included; so there's an ever-growing list of third party bolt-ons that are mutually incompatible, a vast departure from the Zen "one obvious way to do it".

Hardware abstraction layer. Can be done in userspace, with the exception of a timer. You may need to add some interrupt arbitration logic.
>any company that understands it can leverage technology effectively to run a more efficient organization.

This feels like too broad of a generalization to be a useful definition. I could make the case any hospital or logistics or <insert business here> is a tech company by this. Tech seems too ubiquitous for this to be an effective definition.

I haven't given it much thought, but maybe "a company with a business moat hinging mostly on its unique technology or ability to use technology" would be a better definition. E.g., Walmart could still be a (less) successful business without an online presence but Amazon couldn't.
I feel like Homa's competiton isn't TCP, but instead is SCTP.

I know that SCTP isn't very popular, but it is an old standard and solves the ahead-of-line blocking issue. Linux does support SCTP, and maybe more expensive routers support it as well (honestly, I haven't experimented much with SCTP on networks...).

SCTP is built on top of IP. So the main issue with SCTP is firewall / NAT / etc. etc. which are built on top of TCP / UDP instead. Homa, being an alternative protocol, would be very similar to SCTP (in that routers wouldn't work on it), except its decades younger.
The law that forces them to accept it also is what gives BTC value in El Salvador.
The top links all go to CIA website and have loads of PDFs that I think contain Al Qaeda propaganda and news. So don't click on that in the UK, pretty sure it's illegal to download that with our terror laws.
The grind is eternal, so adjust your pace accordingly, IMO.

I do think that many orgs don't have any sense of pacing when it comes to software dev. So, don't set expectations too high for an org if they don't have PTO in place to compensate for hard work.
Seems like a reasonable decision to me. I don't see how else the government could control the cartels. Plus it's got to be decent for their economy.
It's solved by Netflix. Doesn't mean it's solved by anyone else, though there are also quite a few other companies that have it "solved" for their level of usage, even if they couldn't flip the switch tomorrow to become Netflix.

"Solved" also doesn't mean there aren't people maintaining it or working on it or getting woken up at night by pages to keep it going. It just means, they've got a handle on it and when the Netflix executive team meets to discuss the business, they aren't spending much time discussing the question of whether or not they can stream video to their customers.
>> I can think of plenty of things that would "hurt the feelings of the Chinese people" and cost companies a lot of money. I hope you have the same opinion about that. (e.g. the Houston Rockets controversy https://www.businessinsider.com/nba-china-feud-timeline-dary...)

> Was this intended for me? I don't know almost anything about any sports controversies. I do my best to not follow sports news. I find it mostly boring. But I do support people fighting against oppression, especially when it comes with physical abuse by those in power.

That isn't a sports controversy. If you care about "fighting against oppression" how did you not get the reference? A link was provided to explain what you're apparently unaware of.

tl;dr: the authoritarian PRC government uses the exact same tactics you are approving of to stifle criticism and opposition to its oppression. You might feel differently about those tactics if the context was this guy getting fired for saying it's wrong of the PRC to ship Muslims in Xinjiang off to reeducation camps to crush their culture.
Yes. However - why would an employer take a risk on a high school graduate when plenty of people with college degrees (often with internship experience) are applying?
Charging for a browser sounds crazy to me.
Just a suggestion - I tried to look this up in HN search (there is an unrelated YC company, Bonsai, that I thought this was connected to) and didn't get a hit as the title doesn't include the name of the project - so please consider including it next time. I love the direction you're going here!
There's very little official diagnosis of long-covid at this point. It's only beginning to be acknowledged, and it's one of those things that's so varied in symptoms and severity that it's hard to pin down, and easy to dismiss as psychosomatic.
I’m impressed. I could see using this browser in addition to keeping FF as my main daily driver.

I would use it specifically for programming or my security engineering work. Do y’all envision the product being used to fill this specific research niche? Or do you intend to create a browser to replace chrome/ff/safari?
I think it's any marijuana use, not just smoking:

The primary exposure for our study was any recent cannabis use, categorized as a binary outcome. In the BRFSS, participants were asked, “During the past 30 days, on how many days did you use [marijuana or hashish (2017)] [marijuana or cannabis (2018)]?” We defined any recent cannabis use as using cannabis 1 or more time during the past 30 days.
Love the concept. Haven't tried it yet, but it looks awesome.
If it's as good as it seems to be I would pay for it.

A must however is support for password managers (bitwarden in my case).

I also very much like that you made a complete browser instead of a chrome plugin. It allows you to rethink navigation and organization in a much less restricted way and I think it shows.

That's not actually a contradiction. Market doesn't mean capitalism, and socialism doesn't mean non-market.

Market socialism is a thing, and the form of socialism that most of the more thoughtful socialists prefer.
In what ways? I'm just curious. The channel doesn't seem political to me either, so I want to investigate my blindspots.
The majority of Bitcoin buyers don’t appear to be interested in its use as currency at all from what I’ve seen.
Netflix used to be head-and-shoulders above other streaming services, now it seems that streaming (which was unbelievably revolutionary 10 years ago) is trivial now. Look how Peacock and Disney+ just popped up overnight, streaming video is just commoditized now.

I think what makes a company a "tech company" is doing actual R&D. Netflix pioneered a lot of technology around streaming. Google invented the modern search engine. Microsoft builds operating systems. Apple designs hardware and operating systems.

NBC with Peacock? No, they just bought something off-the-shelf.

Is Netflix still doing real cutting-edge R&D? Maybe? Maybe not.

El Salvador's currency is pegged to the US dollar.

They have a low degree of monetary sovereignty. I don't know the pros and cons of a country like that adopting bitcoin. But their willingness to take the high risk road to do the experiment will benefit all of us.

A country the like US who has a high degree of monetary sovereignty has a lot to loose and very little go gain by adopting bitcoin. If you believe in Modern Monetary Theory. Given the way things have gone since 2008 financial crisis i believe MMT is the best model available.

Any discussion surrounding adoption of bitcoin should focus on what you gain and what you loose. Because there are always tradeoffs.

I've been complaining about this for years. Instead of optimizing for a pleasant sensation, growers have been trying to push THC as high as possible (while also pushing CBD to near non-existent levels). This 20%+ THC .5% CBD stuff tends to make me anxious and unhappy to the point that I've almost completely quit smoking.

Not that that's necessarily a bad thing overall. But still, I'd love to see some more moderate options take root in the marketplace. If my state ever legalizes, I think it might be fun to try my hand at breeding a personal strain with better ratios!
Worker-owned enterprises are something perfectly achievable now, in the existing free-market societies we currently have. The reason you don't see many is because they still require capital, and the majority people with capital aren't interested in giving it to companies that then give all ownership to the workers.

So the issue becomes that for socialist-structured companies to become effective and commonplace extensive government intervention is required. At that point the line between "worker" and "communal" means of production becomes pretty thin. Like a large amount of socialist theory, there is a lot of verbiage and effort devoted to theoretical concepts that, when the rubber meets the road, boil down to irrelevance.

Let's ignore that Bitcoin is climate arson, and that its only used for money laundering and buying drugs.

Bitcoin has a max throughput of 7 transactions per second. It's utter lunacy to suggest that it could function as a currency for a country.

Yeah, true. Bitplanes were also problematic... It was a nice way to get 32 or 64 colors. Without bitplanes you were limited to what would fit in a byte - so you typically had 2, 4 or 16 colors per pixel in that era, full byte for 256 colors was too much. Amiga could display 32 or 64 colors as well, by having each bit in an independent bitplane. Which is fine if you were copying blocks for 2d games, especially with hw blitter.

But if you had to draw individual pixels, you had to touch 5 or 6 bytes for each pixels. You were DOOMed :)

A phone number is PI as long as it is tied to your ID. If you managed to get a SIM that is not in any way tied to your ID - then you are fine. This is assuming that nobody tracks your calls etc... but if you use Tor to register a PM account, then you probably know all the do's and dont's of both Tor and prepaid SIMs. As for the second part - yes and no. Yes, PM cannot answer suggesting to move. No, PM is not to blame for that. As it has been pointed out (in one of other threads about PM) this serves as a (not so high) hurdle for spammers, otherwise PMs free tier will turn into spam machine overnight. And paying customers still have to disclose their identity.
Also, if one values their privacy _that much_ then that person should be able to expend some effort to protect it, and not just make a couple of clicks on the webpage.
fitnessblender works really well. It has a paid program as well which I had used in the past for a while. Free content works really well if you are consistent :D
