Jigzi | frontend Rust Wasm Developer | Full-Time | Remote

You read that right- frontend and Rust in the same sentence. We are building a largeish web-based platform in the edtech space. While several of the technical challenges in this new frontier have been solved- there are many more puzzles to go!

More description and contact info here: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1-Kd6oEyQHlNYT-dS58D9SkRA...

Our framework of choice is Dominator + futures-signals, though we bail out to lit-element for custom elements and layout (so a bit of typescript and html stuff too). You're not expected to be familiar with Dominator yet, you'll be given time and flexibility to learn that on the job, but you should know Rust well and be somewhat familiar with the modern approach to rendering DOM in the web world (declarative, reactive, functional).

In terms of the product- it's open-source and intended to be forkable for any educational arena. However, it is spearheaded and funded through Jewish Interactive which will be using it in around 600 Jewish Dayschools. Our focus at the moment is getting this initial version out. Initial private beta will be this month, and public MVP a few months later.

The entire premise of this product is that it is modular, and there are plans to add more kinds of modules later (e.g. WebGL-powered, perhaps via an ECS like Shipyard or Bevy)

If you have a Rustacean mentality - that is, you are more than happy to accept compiler errors and language complexity for the sake of stability, speed, scalability, and all the other awesomeness that Rust provides, please reach out!
Show HN: MemeNgin – A programmable meme creator and community
Hi, folks!

The project consists of the following elements:
- A node-based programmable design tool not limited to memes.
- Steamworks feature allowing users to share their works.
- Supports procedural animation & gif compositing.

The purpose of this project is to help people become interested in programming through logically organizing memes.

I have been building this around 15 months. Maybe I was too ambitious. :)
It sounds a bit like the 3 foot wide concrete pillar that came out of nowhere and scratched half way down the passenger side of the car recently.
Mine was more a general observation. The GH stars metric is attractive to be used for ranking, because so many projects are on Github. But sites like this also work to keep it this way forever i.e. "I must be on GH for my theme to become popular".

Maybe Hugo Themes [0] or Netlify might offer a usage metric on their site. Here are two Hugo themes whose code is on Codeberg (a Gitea forge dedicated to FOSS projects) that still have a presence on Github, probably due to FOMO:

- https://codeberg.org/Lednerb/bilberry-hugo-theme

- https://codeberg.org/cinux/hugo-theme-techdoc

Didn't look on (self-hosted or primary) Gitlab, but can imagine there'd be a whole bunch of Hugo themes there too.

The torrent of comments smearing Aaron and his work as drivel is indicative of how incredibly effective the Russiagate media spectacle really was. Americans are so thoroughly propagandized, so lavishly disinformed and lied to that they actually think the interests of the security state are THEIR interests.
I actually agree with you. I think taking long breaks in between jobs/clients is the better path for most people.

I just got an amazingly sweet deal:

- I was remote so I lived out of my backpack in places around the world for many years (pre-COVID)

- I got my work done fast in less than 20h/week most weeks so I had plenty of time to e.g. learn another language to a conversational level

- I was able to save $15k - $20k/month

- I took 1 or 2 months of unpaid leave every year to pursue hobbies

Had I not been able to do that, I would definitely have quit earlier and taken a long break.
I'm not an English native speaker but I don't think powder is slang, it describes a specific kind of non compact snow, freshly fallen. The fact that skiers like it is coincidental. I don't think there is any other word for it that would be higher register.

My apologies, I read your post and understood the bot access part. However the timing of it sure as looked smelly to me, that's why I wrote "supposed".

I probably shouldn't have speculated it was all a set up, but even if it wasn't all kicked off with that intent, how it was then used sure was not ok. It reeked of trickery and deceit, which I construed as social engineering from that point of view - hope that makes sense (edit: #1).

Kudos on handling this, and hope you're doing well all considered. It was fantastic to read how you claimed the ownership back.

#1) that they requested "Yesterday we announced Foundation-wide Code of Conduct Enforcement. Part of making that work requires that the dnfadmin GitHub user has owner permissions to GitHub organizations."
Handing over your signing keys, your IP, to a company that cannot even be arsed to review apps properly? What could go wrong?
That's exactly what I'm saying. I can't prove a negative -- the burden of proof is on the other party.

By your reasoning, being unable to prove a negative means that, outside of maybe math, facts don't really exist. I can't prove that WW2 wasn't an elaborate hoax, I can't prove that Texas is a real state, I can't prove that babies aren't brought around by very stealthy storks.

The point is, you already accept WW2 as factual -- or you certainly wouldn't object to someone presenting it as such on an internet forum -- despite it possibly being a shared worldwide hallucination, so you're not even being internally consistent.

If you think the abortion debate is as simple matter of "men vs women", you obviously haven't looked up the facts, otherwise you would know that men and women in the US oppose abortion in roughly equal numbers.
>> The post office charged Rothstein a flat fee of $5.95, for any amount up to $500.

That is still an insanely high rate for a small check. At 500$ it might seem a small percent but I think many checks in this program will be far smaller.
Why can’t we have this on Facebook?

IIRC most moths can't even eat, so their only purpose in that stage of life is to mate and lay eggs.
Sadly the vast majority of ARM vendors offer only very old ARM cores. Except for the chips intended for mobile phones, the only devices with not too old ARM cores are slow devices with quadruple Cortex-A55 cores.

I fear that Asahi Linux on a Mac Mini (especially when the M1X comes out with possibly 6 or 8 high-performance cores) is going to be the best option for a modern Linux ARM workstation for a while.
I don't believe anything without evidence. It seems like a reasonable piece of tidying up that settles the legal juristiction of vessels in those waters but I look forward to seeing the evidence that it was a spiteful landgrab (watergrab?) so I can adjust my beliefs.

On balance, the maritime border appears to me to have been restruck to be fair.

Yeah right. More likely it's 32 hours/week unless it's less than 2 years before a deadline and then it's 80 hours/week.
Regarding the IPs behind Cloudflare, when you send a DMCA notice to Cloudflare via email (meaning you don't need an account), Cloudflare will forward the notice to the host of the website, who will then take appropriate action. Cloudflare will usually also notify you about the origin IP of the website so you can further enforce your rights directly at the company which hosts the website.

I don't much agree with the RAM = "memory" thing. "Memory" colloquially is for remembering things. RAM and storage are both for the computer to remember things, so it's natural to think they are both memories. It adds to the confusion that there are "memory cards" that employ "flash memory", the same tech that powers SSDs, which is nowadays a primary way of doing storage.

If you think about it, RAM is short term memory, and storage is long term memory, no?
The Extraordinary Case of the Guevedoces
The problem is that Mozilla's profits are tied less to their market cap than to their ability to raise funding. Historically Google contributed the lion's share because Firefox was useful to mask the increasing market domination of Chrome, which would have caused some upset so shortly after Microsoft got into trouble for bundling Internet Explorer with Windows. This role is becoming less relevant with Microsoft reviving its browser efforts and Apple heavily pushing Safari, and of course Opera, Brave and others riding on Chrome's coat tails via Chromium (like MS for that matter).

Ironically Netscape itself became "something like Yahoo or Commodore": AOL bought Netscape (which led to the Mozilla foundation being created), then proceeded to sell discount services under the name "Netscape ISP" and eventually renamed the original Netscape company. As far as I know the original company (now non-operating) eventually ended up being owned by Facebook and the Netscape brand somehow ended up being owned by Yahoo.
I don't think so. Don't prematurely optimise. First thing to try is to hook up an RL algorithm and let her rip. If that doesn't work move on from there.
No, that's not the problem here. The author explicitly states they were totally fine with enforcing a code of conduct on their mailing list.

The problem here was about trust in the foundation and power over the repositories.

> Now imagine those machines chasing down a thought criminal desperately trying to hide in the woods in order to avoid execution.

If you're hiding in a forest and they know where you are within 30 minutes of flying time - you've already lost. If they don't have drones they can just use dogs.

The problems with this situation to solve, sorted by priority:

- don't have a totalitarian state

- don't let them know your thoughts

- escape to a different country while you can

- don't let them know in which forest you're hiding

- don't let them know where exactly

Drones only change the last point, and only marginally at that. Meanwhile we're collectively helping the internet overlords with the first 4 points by carrying smartphones everywhere and using google and facebook and whatsup etc.
Unless you consider all that complexity a misfeature, like I do.
You are correct about communication being the core of the issue.

I understand what you are saying with "If they ask you for X permission, you cant just say no, sorry but you are part of an organization and it doesnt work that way". But I didn't say no to the requirement from the .NET Foundation. I was happy to enforce the Code of Conduct. Where I drew the line was granting admin access to an alias. The .NET Foundation owns the copyright but they don't own me. I'll also argue they don't own the issue tracker and other non-source code things in the project. And opinions on that could differ so conversations could be in order.

Also, I didn't spend a lot of time in the blog post discussing the evaluation of repercussions but Bob and I did talk about the for a while. In the end, I decided that those of us that work on the WiX Toolset would be in a better place to communicate if our organization was in "public". I take responsibility for that decision and I'm transparent about what and why I did it.

But, in the end, I agree with you. Communication and transparency will help to avoid similar issues in the future.
Well ... maybe that's a small proof. https://trends.google.com/trends/explore?q=facebook,facebook...
Ask HN: Why does Google Search have Dark Mode only on desktop mode?
On an iPhone, there is no setting for Dark Mode. At least not without signing in.

But when I Request Desktop Website, I can click on the gear icon (which is only visible after searching for something), there is an option for Dark Mode.

Why are the biggest companies so fucking shit at basic UX? Same goes for Facebook etc. on desktop site vs app vs mobile site vs iPad…
Yep, we might face a world where gun drones have perfect accuracy from hundreds of meters away as well as split second kill on sight decision making. You'd be dead before you'd see it coming.
Otomi increases autonomy in the education sector
Yes, exactly. Thank you.
I see what you mean, however the Scots have their own Parliament and two governments (Scottish and UK). They could transfer some more power from the UK government to Scotland through further negotiations or proclaim independence. The latter however has its disadvantages, as the supposedly newly created Scotland would not be part of any union and then there's also the case of the UK's nuclear weapons controlled by the London government. Thus I personally believe negotiation is the better option, especially now that the London government is in a weakened position due to 'brexit going badly'.

I doubt a country teams up with other countries for defence purposes as long as they don't also share the defence costs, the exception here being the US. Of course, this comes at the price of hosting US troops and installations operated by the US on foreign soil and also becoming a potential target to US enemies.

This also doesn't quite work if for instance Texas were to secede from the US and then asked for US protection if it got attacked by Mexico. The US would probably occupy Texas and told them to shut up and put up with the US military or the federal government in charge of running the show.

What other options does Scotland have, ask France for military protection? Because the EU does not yet have an army.
From what I remember, spam was dealt with by using scorefiles, not cancelbots. And the scorefile mechanism was much superior to what you have today - except that you had to maintain that scorefile by yourself.
No, you're not missing anything, besides that most people who do depend on NPM these days, do in fact run their own proxies as the registry does down so often. Verdaccio is the one I see being used in the wild most often. https://verdaccio.org/

epoll is not an asyncio implementation, it really doesn’t belong in any discussion about aio, it’s a relatively better poll/select. Apparently less well known is that Linux had an async io interface also introduced around the same time in 2.5 (see io_setup, io_submit, and libaio). Initially extremely limited and generally not widely used (limitations include only working on certain disk files opened O_DIRECT), however it was incrementally improved over the years until io_uring came around. glibc has had a POSIX AIO implementation for years, implemented with userspace threads since the kernel implementation was originally not suitable.
It's like bad software architecture. Imagine we already have a security module responsible for deciding what requests are properly authenticated and authorized. And we have a service module responsible for some of the processioning of requests. Now someone comes along saying they think the security module isn't doing a good enough job - and their proposed solution isn't to fix the security module, it's to let the service module do request authorization too. And not even by asking for input from the security module about what should be authorized, or having a shared definition of authorization rules that they both rely on, but by letting the service module decide on its own what it thinks should be authorized. You'd tell whoever proposed that, our system already has that responsibility living in a single place, and spreading it out to multiple places is how you turn your code base into an unmaintainable mess, thankyouverymuch.

We are destroying the habitat of a lot of moths too, though. Edit: but, indeed, quite probably not of the entire group.

Many are specialists. In fact, moths are just butterflies, and what we call butterflies are specialists in being able to navigate by daylight.

Some moths need very special plants for their time as catterpillar, others need very special flowers to drink from. Again others need a goldilock humidity or temperature or both.

I'm just an amateur though. But as beekeeper, I do have a lot of interest for other pollinating and nectar eating insects.
Fragment shader invocations are minimum 2x2 pixel blocks. Portions of those 2x2 pixel blocks outside the primitive represent wasted computation. Sliver triangles, with their long edges and small sizes, tend to increase the number of wasted helper invocations.

I don't think you've seen the .NET Foundation and Microsoft interact then.
In graphics programming, having a monitor for reference material, a monitor for the graphics debugger and a monitor for the game under test isn't terrible. That's probably my primary use of multi monitor - debugging.

Org-mode does present all the same information, but tasks are not automatically scheduled down to the minute. Though I would not be surprised if someone did write a script to micromanage every minute of the day.

If someone needs the tool to say "17:04 unplug laptop ; 17:05 place laptop in bag" then I think that they are spending too much time with their tools and need to spend more time doing the first thing on their list no matter if it has a timestamp or not.

Bollocks. The stand-up I will never forget is Stewart Lee, keeping two thousand punters in stitches while he spins a single joke out over ten minutes.

I initially wanted to quit ASAP and was going for lean-FI at $20k/year, but ended up negotiating a sweet deal and working a 2 years longer to get to $60k/year from investments with the 4% rule. I still only spend between $20k - $30k/year so I have plenty of room to increase my budget.

I just quit a few months ago so we'll see how not working for money turns out long term. So far it's been great. I've been pursuing my hobbies, volunteering, and doing some very light consulting (0 - 2h/week). In other words, I still do plenty of things, it's just that I don't get paid for them and can do them fully on my terms.

Commercial paper is not junk bonds, and is pretty standard for a money market fund to hold. It’s a pretty specific thing and doesn’t really deserve scare quotes.

> You’ve missed something, but I’m not sure what.

This is what I'm trying to figure out too.

Basically, how do you buy $1m worth of BTC/USDT perps without depositing $1m of USD into Binance? Let's say if we put in $100k USD with a 1:10 leverage, it means the position on Binance is wiped out if BTC drops by more than 10%. So the only way for this to work is to deposit $1mil of USD into Binance and opening the position. But this means we lost a whole $1m when Binance implodes, cancelling our gain in the short position.

Otherwise, we need to borrow $1mil of USDT to open the Binance BTC/USDT position.

What did I miss?
