Charge Robotics | Robotics Software Engineer | Full-time | Onsite | SF Bay Area

Hi HN! We’re a brand new startup building robots that build large-scale solar farms. It turns out that construction companies literally can't build solar fast enough, so what we're doing is a crucial part of switching the grid over to renewable generation. We're funded and are looking to bring one more talented software engineer onto our small team.

You’ll be a key contributor, helping bring our first prototype to life: an autonomous, 25,000 pound outdoor mobile robot. You’ll have the opportunity to work on every part of our robotics stack including localization, planning, perception, control, simulation, and more. You'll have a lot of input on which problems you decide to tackle.

Our founding team has experience growing companies and building robots like this. One of our founders was the second employee at a robotics startup that recently announced a $1.1B public offering.

Come work with us if you love:

* Fast-paced prototype development with software and hardware components

* Making a positive climate impact through your work

* Hacking on massive construction equipment!

I was surprised not to see Honeycup on this list. It's pretty widely available, and many delis/restaurants use it (I think I discovered it at Zingerman's in Ann Arbor). It's sweet, of course, but also has quite a strong horseradish-y bite. It's very distinctive, and some people are really really into it, though I personally only like a little and even then only in the right dish/mood.

WebAuthn saves granny though. Because it's so easy that granny can't get confused. The best way forward under WebAuthn is to have her physically send them her Security Key.

Now, granny may not be down with the latest Tik Tok trends, but she has seen keys before, and the analogy is strong - so I think she can get this right.

To be fair, scammers have been successful with scams that involve an actual bike courier (presumably the scammer or a friend) coming to pick up your bank card, but that at least feels a bit reasonable because it does say the card remains property of the bank, so, sure, have your card back. And I'm also guessing this is a much higher friction scam than the average "Phone support in India" setup. I reckon scam dozens of people for their card this way and somewhere around the 100 victims mark the guy opening the door to your courier has a baseball bat, or worse, and your courier has a bad day.
EUA or Non-EUA, who cares? These are just words. They’re not useful for much, other than appeals to authority (or lack of it).
Thats not different than other forms of proof of ownership on paper or in some database. If somebody steals or defrauds you, you can go to the authorities and they might act on it. That does not make those instruments useless.

Coinbase themselves called it "a flaw in Coinbase’s SMS Account Recovery process".[1]

I don't think they would have used that phrasing if it were individually simjacked phones.

says in the readme basically:

--cap-add NET_ADMIN \
--device /dev/net/tun:/dev/net/tun \

that's giving it permission to administer the tunnel devices.
I can't fathom why this would be depressing.

Senior developers aren't paid to write code. They're paid to cause good outcomes. Sometimes writing code is helpful for that.

If the team needs more documentation, more demos, or more mentoring, and you don't want to do it, you don't sound like you're behaving like a senior dev to me.
Well, now I'm curious about the audio and closed captioning. I would have thought that the CC was done from the audio, until the video got to a point where the narrator said "lmao" and actually pronounced it as a word. Is that actually a thing? Or, were the txt subtitles written up and then read by a computer, and merged with the other audio?

Yes you've nailed it! Said it even better than me. Stocks are a collective fiction just like money. Except stupider, and only beneficial to a relatively small number of people.

And to your second point, it's true - even billionaires don't profit directly from owning stock in public companies. They profit from that stock by selling it to other billionaires or institutions. Billionaires make money from owning stocks in public companies in more or less the same way as retail traders. Billionaires who own private companies though, that's a whole other thing. If you own a private company in part or in whole, it is possible to just take the company's profits and pay them directly to yourself. But owning and selling stocks is so profitable that I think for the most part billionaires don't bother with private companies - that's why they always want companies they've invested in to IPO. That's when they cash out. Anyway thanks for posting!

Coinbase and other sites (especially those that deal in money) should stop using SIM cards as a form of authentication. While carriers should probably do more to secure SIMs and phone #s, it has always been known that the system was never designed to be used as a security mechanism, and Coinbase using it as such is a security flaw that they are responsible for.
I really wonder how much is willful ignorance for the benefit of clickbait
Imagine that, they tax you on a special “number”! Do they accept Crypto? If not, please point to the money they want to tax.

They can’t have it both ways. Either crypto is an equivalent to money or it isn’t. If it is, accept it. If it’s not, tax it when the money “appears” out the other end.

Paragraph near the bottom of Reuters article on Molnupiravir states:

"Merck has said data shows molnupiravir is not capable of inducing genetic changes in human cells, but men enrolled in its trials had to abstain from heterosexual intercourse or agree to use contraception. Women of child-bearing age in the study could be pregnant and also had to use birth control."

What do you suppose would happen?
This is a great fix! Thanks for sharing it.

It's too bad we have to resort to this kind of hack, but I appreciate having a solution.

So when Fox and MSNBC gets sued for slander, they claim that it isn't news, it's entertainment. If we simply restrict the freedom of the press from any corporation that claims their news department is entertainment and not news (and therefore not press), that might solve some problems.

Of course that won't happen, most of these corporations are just mouth pieces for politicians, and they like to keep them around.

I mean, that's basically just DRM, and we already have it - the blockchain adds nothing to the picture.

Well, such validation would continue working for as long as the blockchain on which the tokens are checked is still running, as opposed to when the manufacturer takes down their DRM servers. But that's added convenience to the user; the manufacturer actually loses a degree of control, so I don't see why they'd go for it?
Again, I'm not saying that I agree that Tesla's current valuation is prudent — only that they have a real business making things which a lot of people like. Even if you think that competition will prevent the massive upsides some investors are hoping for, the floor value from that is a lot greater than the zero for a cryptocurrency.
> I am very scared of the potential consequences

Any particular reason?

I'm someone who was told to be cautious about some vaccines by medical professionals due to a past condition, and so when the covid vaccines started to come available, I both consulted a doctor and did some of my own investigation of things other professionals have published before determining to get vaccinated as soon as possible. Also I've been following VAERS reports since, just to keep a heads up.

As far as I can tell, adverse events from vaccination of any kind are orders of magnitude rarer than corresponding adverse effects from infection.

And nobody who is saying anything about "long term effects" that might show up later has been able to advance any plausible model for how that would happen considering that's vanishingly rare from vaccination in general.
Even the VCs get a better deal here, they end up with equity. If followed that model, then the taxpayer would own at least 50% of the patents generated (via shares the corporate entity that owned the patents).

Under the current model the taxpayer gets nothing, which hardly seems reasonable given the amount of capital they provide.
https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28469275
And annual tax credits for unrealized capital losses?
The protocol is publicly defined, and immutable. There is no need to trust any engineers, or give them any control, just as you don't need to trust the developers of open source software in order to trust the software.

And it is much harder for a state to ban a blockchain, than impose laws on centralized financial intermediaries that lead to rampant banking discrimination. The former will cost far more, in economic resources and political capital, to enforce.
No, I think most people (as in, core developers) just want whatever can actually be relied upon. If there were a silver bullet consensus algorithm that was decentralized and secure and also far less wasteful/plutocratic, everyone would probably switch to it.

The idea that there's an easy, superior solution on the other side's grass and bad motives are just keeping people locked into a bad system is a convenient narrative, but rarely true. I don't know the details about Nano, but my guess is the reason other cryptocurrencies haven't adopted their algorithm is because they don't think it's sufficient, for whatever reason.

Scams, criminals, ponzi schemes and MLMs. Usually when those are used to describe crypto there is no accompanying explanation of why those are relevant or apply in a particular case. There are many ways to genuinely critique crypto that don't use trite buzzwords.
It’s more like a deed. Even if you possess the deed, someone can still take you to court because they actually own the property. But a deed can still be a useful tool if most of the time whoever possesses a deed owns the house.

But if people buy deeds instead of the house itself (i.e. most NFTs) then the link becomes broken and the signifier of “ownership” is less useful.
That's a fair criticism of the current system, but not a good justification for introducing another shitty, broken system as an alternative.

Disclaimer: I'm not promoting Ivermectin here, don't get me wrong. I just want to cover my bases as this announcement is definitely going to be used by people to support their conspiracy theory.

Earlier this year Merck the manufacturer of Ivermectin issued this [0] statement saying that Ivermectin isn't useful for preventing/treating Covid-19 and people shouldn't take it. Some people explained that with the fact that Ivermectin is cheap and they want to develop a more expensive option. I didn't take this seriously, just another conspiracy theory. But now they are coming out with a $1000 per dose solution. According to the FDA [1], the use of Ivermectin for Covid-19 is still being studied and they refer to ongoing trials. Now some people with actual subject matter expertise will know more than me but afaik we haven't completely ruled out Ivermectin for the treatment/prevention of Covid-19, have we? If not, could there be some truth to the allegations that Merck somehow is stalling the Ivermectin studies?
