Thank you very much. That repo has a detailed description of their procedure [1], and it's clear they just reverse engineered the binary file format.

1. Become friends with your roommate, and dorm people. You see these people everyday. Say hi to them, and just small talk for only 2-3mins time to time when people are not in a rush.

2. Play sports... (recreational/intramural), coed better.

3. Join a gym, and start exercising/living healthy

4. Make sure your hygiene is on point and dress well/better than the average. Also pay attention to your grooming and other habits (eg. eating habits). Perhaps there is something that is turning off people.

5. Try to invite people to events/things. Event just lunch at the school cafeteria. Try to form a habit to have lunch with the same people/group and eventually people will invite you to things.

Some of the folks that I went in college that had trouble making friends, apart being socially akward, had some kind of basic hygiene/grooming problem. You are not going to get invites to parties if you look like crap, and have body odor. Nobody will tell you why.

Make sure these basic stuff are covered, then the other thing is just talking regularly to the same people, having lunch with them regularly, etc...

Also, don't beat yourself up, as many people are in the same boat as you. This year is kind of unusual, as covid is still a concern and most people will be more reserved as usual.

Good luck,
Go out and drink beer on a Wednesday night. Go to football games. Go to dance clubs. Go to music venues. Go to parties.

Then talk to people. That is literally all it takes in college.

If you stay in your dorm room night after night, especially in your freshman year, you are going to have a hard time connecting with people. You need to get out more.

1 night during the week, 1 night on the weekend are for meeting people.

You can study / homework / club stuff the rest of the time.
> This is basically mainstream teaching now (see critical race theory). It's like witch burning…

>> She attributed every difference to her paper or claim to racism or white supremacy or oppression or any combination out of the three.

Critical race theory is not yelling to claim every problem is due to racism or oppression. While I don’t agree with all tenants of the recent evolution of critical race theory, I do with the historical purpose of it.

> A collection of critical stances against the existing legal order from a race-based point of view — Roy L. Brooks

Fast forward to today and you have a more broad and insistent approach developing with Critical Race Theory. Primarily due to all of the push back on having legitimate societal conversations and decisions about systemic discrimination since the civil right movement in the US (even going back to the 1968 Kerner Commission).

> The secular high priests of this ideology do and are.

While the focus now on structural determinism, the critiques of liberalism or the use of narratives and lived experiences of CRT might upset you. CRT is not at all simply what you described.
> Accessing the value stored in "value" through the "fields" member is undefined behavior.

I’m surprised at that. Can you quote the relevant part of the spec that you think makes this undefined behaviour?
> "We've been clear about our support for consistent privacy rules around the globe. For example, we have been calling on Congress to pass federal privacy legislation for years."

Ah, the ol’ “Congress oughta do sumthin’” move! Facebook just used this one in their response to Haugen. It’s a classic, like fine wine.
People claiming its hard to read twitter threads has gotten cliche on hacker news.
I don't know, I think that's pretty normal in education? For example, you have a large number of teachers that report up to the head of middle school or something?

RSUs are cash equivalent from tax purposes. They are taxed at market rate at vest time. If you sell at that moment and buy other stock it has the exact same LTCG treatment. It’s also the same as if you are compensated in all cash and go buy stock with that.
The problem isn't recommending, it's that HN is a niche community that most people are not going to find very interesting. We all adore this place because where else can you casually comment back and forth with folks that run VC firms and unicorn startups and other legends of this field.

But that's the thing, if you're not in this field, it's very hard to tell someone why they should care. You can be all excited that you just had a back-and-forth on here with Paul Graham, tell your friend, and your friend is probably not going to have a clue who you are talking about.

And TBH that's a good thing. HN is a niche community that will never appeal to many people, but we love it because to the folks that it does appeal to, its a truly magical place on the internet.
Yeah, I shouldn't use tech that is basically used all over the world for convenient internet connections to access a new tech that is basically built on top of that.

Sounds reasonable...
Yes, ordering parts was easy.
I would recommend learning by doing. Don't waste time reading a book - just get out there and do things.

AMD Short Interest Has Grown by 234% in Nine Months Reveals Data
It's all the same mistake made during the Dot Com era: "It's all free".

But it's NOT free. The fixed or variable costs might be lower than typically seen before but "smaller" ≠ "zero" just like "large" ≠ "infinite".

It's confusing these that causes most of these types of "entrepreneurship Epic Fails".

You still have to have an infrastructure which has non-zero fixed and variable cost.

When it comes to space (I used to be employed as a rocket scientist at a government Think Tank), the infrastructure costs are absolutely enormous even compared to more modest terrestrial systems. Like many orders of magnitude higher than, say, the entire interstate highway system. And it's because the risks and capital costs are that much higher.
Once this is running on NixOS I'll be all over it. Great news!
Trigger Warning: plenty of COVID 'misinformation' in this post!

I'm never taking the so-called 'vaccine'. I believe there is a sound empirical basis to question pretty much all aspects of the conventional narrative.

I think I can hold out for a while yet, but I'm resigned to the fact that at a certain point the current deprivation of rights/isolation/demonisation stage may give way to outright genocide of the unvaccinated. The writer describes how the government of Lithuania are moving towards coercion with the threat of denial of food and shelter via denial of income; that's already not far off a death sentence in a Baltic winter. Going back to the facts I'm not yet convinced this is a particularly lethal disease. Does it really justify exterminating people that refuse to give up their bodily autonomy? I saw a sticker that was along the lines of 'a vaccine that doesn't work, for a disease that's so lethal you have to be tested to know whether you've had it'. I've yet to be convinced this isn't valid.

If/when (more than likely when rather than if here in the UK, depressingly) this happens here I will have to flee. To be honest, with many of the vaccinated apparently having been turned, Rwanda style, into take-no-prisoners zealots, I wish there were a free country that people like me could move to and be isolated from the ROW, with the agreement that we stay in this country and never travel to the COVID-tyranny zone. If the vaccinated do not want me in their society, well, I have a message for you: at this point the feeling is kind of mutual. I suspect the land of the unvaccinated and free would do rather well.

I've been keeping tabs on other countries to see those where the flame of freedom has not yet been extinguished, but it's pretty difficult to ascertain given that I'm living in one the main pushers of the COVID (WEF/Great Reset?) agenda. Does anyone know of a single website that aggregates this data?
I can oppose the desires of the majority on exactly the same grounds as I can oppose the desires of a single person. Being in the majority doesn't give anyone the right to impose their desires on everyone else. There is really nothing morally special about a majority.
Perhaps society as a whole should just try to solve these problems.

This is the tarpit of market-based solutions: debating endlessly about who bears costs, instead of just doing collective things collectively. And if you do have markets, every middleman and their dog will demand their slice of the pie.
Something similar happened to me the first semester of college. I had no friends and I was really struggling with the transition. I lost a lot of weight because I didn’t want to go to the cafeteria alone.

Things ended up improving for me and overall I had an amazing time in college. What worked for me was trying to stay open when meeting people. I took some risks and asked people to hang out 1:1 and in small groups. There were a lot of these hang outs with people that never turned into anything in the first year. It wasn’t until my second year I really made some good friends and it came through trial and error.

I also don’t have any of those interests. I went to a big school and one of my realizations is that it was on me to find my own place there. I tried a bunch of clubs before I found one or two that stuck but through those activities that DID stick I made my best friends.

Keep your head up, know that the transition will take time, and keep trying new things on the social front.
It might also be due to people getting increasingly tired of their crap.
I struggled a bit early on. Join organizations and volunteer to help. The latter is important.
> this Stalinist "you can't say that," bullshit is to keep saying it, louder.

So you don't dispute that it is disinformation. Is idea that is that someone refusing to host disinformation is a good reason to disinform, louder?

I mostly work with obsolete industrial devices. Having obsolete devices around is handy to deal with them, sadly this also means keep ‘supporting’ their obsolescence in a way. The other half of my job and hobby consists of making those obsolete devices running on less obsolete devices but again requires sniffing out obsolete devices, they controllers or the support hard and software again. I agree thats work done by most people, again sadly
Someone from Britain would be appalled at how unsafe German plugs are. So it's all relative.
I’m not a beginner using React any more. But useEffect is not straightforward at all when compared to the old methods (disclaimer: I also have a OO background).

Another thing that is not straightforward at all is to know when it will re-render children components and when it will not. I had to go through several blog posts to begin to understand it.

Then all that extra complexity starts sucking more when you figure out that an old server-rendering framework would work just fine for the app you are developing, it didn’t have to be a SPA in the first place. But React was chosen just because it’s the cool modern framework.
Tamper proof is also a requirement, but if you're arguing about git having some of the same properties as a crypto ledger, I would agree.
Endlesss is cool - in fact I know the founder. It's a different experience though - when it's live you feel someone else's presence compared with offline collab.
Up to you what you prefer.
You're really suggesting these stories were being suppressed by the media until now when they started to sell news? The media who hate Facebook and Google as usurpers of their ad revenue and talk about their own industry as being in collapse as a result?

Maybe there's more of these stories because more is getting out? Or maybe Facebook Google are actually getting worse over time in the manner of most companies and industries where ethical & legal corruption is unchecked?

I'm struggling to see a valid argument for this is a trend based on changes to what works as clickbait, however ironic that would be.
How was your previous school experience? How long have you been in college?

Your statement “haven’t gotten beyond acquaintance” kind of implies some general social awkwardness/anxiety. You seem to be branding yourself as an outsider looking in. I think that’s relatively common and I’ve been there, it’s just an observation.

You don’t have to have a lot of interests in common with people to enjoy their company. But if you are routinely looking for reasons that you don’t belong in a group, you’ll keep finding them.

Stay authentic to yourself. Seek out people that make you happy. You do not have to be best friends with someone to enjoy their company.
How is the durability compared to OG Model M keyboards? I've been seeing Unicomps on eBay come up for around $50. If they are as rock solid as their predecessors, it should be an absolute deal.

> OTP has its own ways of doing everything and they are often counter to general best practices (e.g. doing hot releases instead of rolling new containers)

Now this is opinionated. Hot releases are used mostly if you want to upgrade your drone's software while it's flying. Surely you don't want it to crash?

Or if you're a telecom company (like the creator of Erlang), you don't want an upgrade to kill the on-going communications. Same for a MMO, you don't want an upgrade to disconnect your players.

Docker/Kubernetes is not "general best practices". It's only one way out of many. And if you don't need the use cases above, you can put your application in a Docker container and restart it for upgrades, this is how 90% of Elixir/Phoenix webapps are deployed.

> One of the neat things about OTP is that you can migrate processes between nodes that are connected in a mesh network. The documentation is really light on how to do this.

How? They solve completely different problems. Could you explain?
Plenty of this is "helicoptered/snowplowed kids" becoming adults! This is how kids crippled by bad parenting respond to the real world. We knew it would be dysfunctional but it's far beyond that.
First of all: useState is not a pure function, nor is setState. I would think that’s obvious from the name. The order isn’t hidden and it’s not magic, it’s the order they’re defined in the function body, because under the hood the React runtime is storing all the hooks you call in an array and firing them off by iterating through the array. It is a very conventional architecture in event handlers: of course there is going to be an order they get called in, there is no way to avoid it. But it’s perfectly explicit.
Given enough of that data you should be able to trace which roads most users drive on and where they park their car. That seems like personal data to me. Don’t forget they should have a full database of VIN numbers they can already look up a list of owners.
Exactly.
I have a prototype VST plugin which pipes the audio from the DAW into the application.
When the server is in the same town, it's not hard for me to get 10-15 ms total latency in Jamulus. 60 ms is a lot - borderline unplayable. I get better latency than that over WiFi.
> Seems like your comment was just an attempt to dunk on a group of people you seem to believe are over paid.

I was responding to a comment that argued they weren’t paid enough, and I was just making the counterpoint.

So no, if anyone has an axe to grind, it would be you.
Yes Opus - the other benefit is that it can handle a degree of missing packets which is very handy.
Only 500 years or better through the dark age of the Galactic Empire?

2. Locate it at the outer rimes of the civilised galaxy.

3. Implement a technocratic cult governed by a dynasty of priests.

4. Engage in psychohistorical research for envisioning future risks.
Fingerprinting? There is research around identifying users purely based on their keystroke patterns which are apparently fairly unique. I wouldn't be surprised if driving (and probably a lot of other activities involving physical movements) has the same potential for fingerprinting.
There is no tax advantage for the employer or the employee. Your scenario A is incorrect because you pay income tax at time of vesting, as the other comments pointed out.
Totally this ^^^. I still battle with CSS. I have no love for it but the best way I've found to approach it is to have some idea of what I want to achieve visually and work from there. Almost everything one would seek to achieve has been done by $someone and is out there on the internet. Steal it! Sometimes it's blog posts, sometimes I just scrape other sites (modern browser really help here). But yup, grid, box, floats. MDN rocks.

I can guarantee you, from conversations I have had with senior executives at these companies, that they fully believe they’ve got the regulators in their back pockets. Until we throw people like Nick Clegg in prison for their revolving door betrayal of their citizens, you’ll have some suspiciously incompetent and sympathetic politicians handling these issues. The whole Federal Reserve stock trading scandal should show you that these “public servants” will bend their morals for depressingly small amounts of money.

The original COVID virus is practically defunct. It was outcompeted by other strains. Effectiveness is sharply declining.

Ten years is much longer than ten months, which is how long the corona vaccines have been around.

Waning immunity is not a red herring. The entire mass vaccination strategy was predicated on the idea that everyone would get one or two doses and the virus would be defeated and we go back to normal. Spare me this motte/bailey sophistry.

Measles: again you conflate a disease that attacks children with a disease that does not. The 0.2-1% mortality figure for measles is almost entirely concentrated among children. Rate of child death from corona is negligible. You bring up 700 dead children from corona -- yes this is a tragedy, but it is comparable to influenza. A bad flu season will see something like 500-600 under-18s die in USA over course of a year (and is your 700 figure for a single year, or summed across both pandemic years?). I am sorry but we cannot shut down society for this.

The suggestion of a P2P mesh is only if you physically could set that up.

Otherwise, using Ethernet + Fiber connection should be good enough for most. Only if you really wanna lower the latency should you invest in additional hardware.
Even worse, the Arab Spring protests were not a phenomenon that was spontaneously organized, but was the result of careful planning by American government-financed organizations.

It depends on country how the university system is set up, but often student accommodation is as key as class is. Most of my friends weren’t studying what I was studying, and we met in the dorms.

One “trick” is study groups. These can be turned into friends groups by subtle directions like meeting in a pub or suggesting retiring to a pub when it gets tiring, or the classic “meet at mine; I’ll cook”.

Even if these people are lightweight friends, they may be the people who eventually introduce you to those you will be close even beyond uni.

Another angle is to volunteer for those who help international students on exchanges and things. Students who do exchanges tend to interesting people!
That book is disturbing as hell as it shows just how nonchalant many were to the mass killings. Most of the excerpts are taken from letters or diaries of perpetrators so you can read exactly how they described the events themselves.

The stories of the dozens of children locked up (parents already killed) and starving and how the authorities had to tell the guards how this is upsetting the population and to not let it happen again - that is, let the population see the conditions the children are in.

Or the mass shootings of groups of kids all the way down to toddlers.
As a reader of written word content RSS was wonderful because it allowed you to consume content without distraction, in the format you liked it. For written word publishers RSS was problematic, especially if you were trying to make a living from writing because it stripped out all the paywalls, ads and/or traffic tracking you needed to make a living.

For non written content RSS is still huge (it's how podcasts work https://podcasters.apple.com/support/823-podcast-requirement...). Incidentally there are some very good podcast clients, and some treat an RSS feed as podcast with a missing media download/stream.
There's a "buy me a coffee" on the page if you're feeling generous!
It's true the cost is certainly the dev time not so much the servers. Though open sourcing doesn't protect things from dying - it's people not using them!
Can you shed some light on what the right and wrong incentive structure looks like?
"This won't work with the commodity technology I use" (wireless LAN)

"Here's some ways in which it can work using a slightly different but still as widely used commodity technology" (wired LAN)

"No, that is unreasonable, wires are unreasonable"

Like, it's SUCH a simple solution: use wires. That's how I can stream games from my computer to my parent's house at 1080p60 with only about 30ms latency over domestic broadband connection, for example.

Also, sometimes you can get really lucky with wireless on 5ghz - see streaming in VR as a prime example. The developer of Virtual Desktop for the Quest has done some great work getting a really solid low latency VR feel; I've been able to stream games from rent-a-VM ShadowPC servers without feeling the lag.

OK, so pro audio is a different beast and is even more sensitive to latency than VR, but here people are having fun with this tech and clearly it's working for them!
CSS is easy to understand, simple to use, and impossible to debug.
