Industrious, yes! Genius, I'd say no.

And that's a good thing.

No amount of genius can convert ideas into results if you don't have the 'put the work in' perspective of a hard worker.

Congrats!
I talked to a guy yesterday who was looking forward to Starlink GA so he could get reliable uplink from an arduino sensor array on a boat used to service aquaculture farms in the middle of the ocean.

I'm pretty optimistic about how much of the world this is going to connect.
> Unfortunately, if we get into a car accident, we don't get to ask the driver of the vehicle we're colliding with to change their location, angle of impact, and speed, in order for the collision to comply with an IIHS, NHTSA, or *NCAP, test protocol.

I'm smitten with the stupid idea of teaching your self-driving car that when a crash can't be avoided it should attempt to make the crash as close as possible to the nearest crash test protocol of the jurisdiction it's operating in.

Oh, but the parent comment gets to speak for the whole spectrum by saying that autistic people wouldn't know that they shouldn't make rape jokes in public because they are autistic? Without citing any sources, or having any qualifications to do so, or even claiming to speak from personal experience?

Perhaps you should direct your comment to them.
I work at Amazon and you would be surprised at how insanely terrible just everything about HR/Recruiting/Payroll is.

- Got paid double? They will argue with you that there is no mistake, then write back a month later asking you to repay.

- Changing work arrangement? They can't tell you the impact on your compensation, RSU, bonus, etc... They update your status and you just wait for everything to resolve. No they won't give you even an email about it so you'll learn that your RSU grant was taken back 2 months later when login into your Morgan Stanley account.

- Emailed payroll? Well that was the wrong payroll so they'll close your ticket and give you 0 information as to where your ticket should actually go.

- Gave a return offer to a great intern? They'll email you 3 months later to ask why they still haven't received anything for HR.

For a company that prides itself with being customer obsessed and that "everyone including the employees are customers" it's so deeply frustrating.
It starts there, but then once you get into complex workflows that merge data across your product and CRMs it all moves to the warehouse first. Typical flow is a Fivetran or Stitch into the warehouse, lots of dbt models, then business models fit for consumption down stream.

Once in the warehouse, it needs to get back into those operational systems again, which is the tricky part.

I’ve done these one off integrations from the warehouse into Salesforce (creating leads, converting them, moving stages all based off product usage), and into marketing tools (customer segmentation built using SQL in the warehouse, then sent to marketing automation tools).

Being able to feed tools directly off the warehouse instead of writing one off integrations is the real value.

There's a group of folks here that believe we should eliminate all exploration for the sake of ambiguous and vague goals of "preservation". They pop up in every discussion of the future, demanding explanations for why people of whom they have no affiliation should use resources of which they have no ownership for purposes over which they have no reasonable control.

Consider directing your volunteer HN moderation at that absurdity.

Not afraid, but typing a dash in the terminal is easier and shorter than typing a reverse slash and a space. Spaces are kind of a pain in the ass in the terminal, tbh.

This is such an old concept that it's been beaten into the ground at this point. These "movements" aren't really movements, they're product bandwagons. Notice how most of these "no-code" solutions are proprietary, for-profit, non-standard and unwilling to be anything but.

The Salesforce data is in Salesforce, and the HubSpot data is in HubSpot, and the Mixpanel data is in Mixpanel, but those applications don't have each others data (not to mention missing any transformations on top). E.g. As a sales rep, you can benefit from understanding product usage and marketing activity for a contact in salesforce
I do it the other way around. I used to be afraid of spaces. But I have come to realize that it is better to learn sooner than later which pieces of software is in such a bad state that they aren’t handling spaces correctly.

That being said, even after all these years I sometimes need to try a few times in order to get the quoting and the escapes right when communicating names of files with spaces through multiple layers of software.
It would be awesome to see Gitea support as well. Generally speaking targeting other forges than Github is a niche to be filled for many (dev)tools.
I'm glad you're having a good experience now, and git as a monorepo will work fine at smaller scales, but you will outgrow it at some point.

When you do, you have two choices. You can either commit to the monorepo direction and start using non-standard tooling that sacrifices decentralization, or you can break up your repo into smaller manageable repos.

I don't have any problem with small organizations throwing everything into one git repo because it's convenient.

My objection is that when you eventually do hit the limits of git, will you choose to break the fundamentals of git decentralization as a workaround? Or will you break up the repo into a couple of other repos with specific purposes?

I don't like that GitHub makes money by encouraging people to make the wrong choice at that juncture.
No code is fine. It’s not much different from front end development where developers cannot figure out how to dynamically put text on a page without 300mb of framework and dependencies.

But in the case of Lowtax, the flaws- not only his abusive personal life but his petty webmaster dictatorship, his incompetent inability to monetize, his misanthropic persona- is part and parcel of his public profile. It’s how he’s always been regarded by the goons. Because Something Awful has always been a place to embrace misanthropy, antisocial ridicule, and looking at the crappy side of things.

If anything, to remember his flaws is to engage in the same spirit of mockery that he pioneered. It’s completely apt in this case, and to do otherwise and to whitewash would be to completely miss the point of this man’s life and accomplishments.
That only changed relatively recently. I think in the last decade? Volvo was the only company testing on female dummies for much longer. They are the only company doing testing with models of pregnant women.

The safety is being called into question and the vaccines aren't any where even kinda close to effective as they purported to be when they were released.

I find it extremely strange to see more or less this exact post over and over again in response to people's concerns for long-term side effects. Number of people !== time. Every single person on the planet could get the vaccine and we still would have precisely 0 long-term data.

It's even more interesting that the same people making this mistake and telling everyone to "follow the science" seem completely unable to accept that not only are there very real health concerns, but that it's entirely possible if not probable that more negative effects will be found in the future.
Your example is basically describing every action movie where an off-duty cop needs to save the world.

Second edition incoming soon (2022 I think).
The title feels pretty disingenuous here because the small overlap test is substantially more difficult than the full frontal, or half overlap tests that were tested previously. As was discovered when looking at real world crash data, the improvement in outcomes from the 50% overlap tests fell off dramatically in 10% overlap situations. Hence, why a new test specifically for that was introduced.

I think a better way to look at how cars fair in crash tests that they are not "specifically optimized" for is to look at results from real world crash data. Like, among various vehicles which received top marks in <crash test>, how did buyers of those vehicles fair in real world accidents that the crash tests are designed to simulate.
> treating a file system like a natural language processor is a bad idea

could you please explain what you mean by that?
> Incidentally while it's an interesting distinction, I don't agree with your comment on need/value want/price. I value lots of things I don't need. Humans are creatures that value things, things that are valued are valuable.

It sounds like there is a disagreement on definition of "need". Perhaps yours is closer to "will physically die if not present", and the parent poster's is "somewhere on Maslow's hierarchy of needs".
> Just: SQL tables, prettified CRUD on those SQL tables on the frontend (with R/W permissions per user on tables), and reports (either on-the-fly or SQL queries run on a cron schedule).

Supabase is pretty much the backend piece of this (built around PostgREST), all it needs is a frontend generator that fits with its DB conventions.
That reminds of the days that I was incorporated, and really wanted to be completely legit. I bought Office 95 Pro for half price, with CD's in a jewel case, complete with holograms on the labels, and considered myself a careful shopper. Then the company I worked for entered into a Select Agreement, and we had a meeting with an official Microsoft representative. I asked him why licenses on the Select schedule were so much more expensive than my copy of Office, and he told me that my copy was bogus. I told him about the holograms and everything! Nope. I paid $200 for very, very good, completely fraudulent and illegal fakes.

After that, I went to Linux on the desktop, and never gave Microsoft another dime, until my wife demanded Word on her Mac a couple years ago, and I now begrudgingly have an Office365 account.

Your version might depend on your frontend (gui, terminal...). And you might want to filter more file types.

You're not going to win a lot of hearts with that sentiment.
It's unrealistic to expect a full, productive, desktop experience on any smaller devices.

Note that the basic HTML version loads faster on slow connections but everything else is slower, because the big ball of javascript is there to hide latency. It has its niche, but on a decent connection the regular version is faster.

What you describe is part of the AWS "Well Architected Framework". Static files should, as much as possible, be hosted on S3. This takes the pressure off the web/app server, is cheaper, increases resiliency to DDOS attacks, and allows much faster loading, particularly of video files, when one integrates the S3 storage with a CDN (such as CloudFront).

What I would find interesting is anyone running a SaaS project and NOT using S3/object storage for a significant amount of their files.

“ However, limited water, storage, crew time, and food preparation capability (e.g., add water, heat) restrict the crew to a limited choice of shelf-stable, single-serving food products either in their natural form or preserved by dehydration, retort thermostabilization, or irradiation.”

So “limited water, storage, crew time, and food preparation capability (e.g., add water, heat)” all sound like things that can be addressed either directly or indirectly by “giant rocket.” And using a freezer for food (which a big rocket would allow) isn’t in the list of options they mainly considered. Deep frozen food is a very straightforward way of preserving food and high levels of nutrients for a very long time.

And as far as SpaceX meeting their goals, I agree they haven’t done it YET, but in order for Artemis to work, they now have to achieve those goals. It takes on the order of 10 Starship launches per HLS mission, more than a Mars launch would require! And they’re only charging like $2.5 billion for that, which includes two HLS missions and HLS development. Starship working and meeting its goals (at least enough for initial Mars mission) is now something NASA is reliant on for the critical path for Artemis. NASA is effectively all-in on Starship now.
I hadn't really thought about it in these terms before, but your comment made me realize this mindset is probably a big part of why I like spending time in wilderness areas. Being without cell service miles from another group of people very much forces a "figure it out" attitude. Solving a tricky situation, with some consequence at stake and using a hodgepodge of resources, is deeply satisfying for me.
No? They're spending their income on housing, food, education, and healthcare. People don't have the capacity to put their cash into savings, let alone investments.

I like typing stuff in and instantly seeing the results, rather than rat wrestling widgets onto a form. Rat wrestling also makes adaptive UIs difficult; again, the solution is being able to declare your UI with layout managers that apply constraints.

The most rapid UI tool I've ever encountered is Tcl/Tk. Everything else involves incurring more tedium and misery -- even Visual Basic or Delphi.

I'm with you - this seems like docker for ubuntu.
There is typescript support.
I feel like the thing missing or not conveyed here is a purpose. Between my last job and the current one, I took a lot of time off to figure out what I was doing and why - more broadly, what is the purpose of my life? What is the impact I want to have in my limited time here?

I found an answer to that, and it's made all the difference for me - I know why I'm doing what I'm doing, I know that my work makes a difference, and that makes the rest of this much easier. If I suddenly had $50M, I would still be working in the space I'm in.

Simultaneously, it's given me balance. I don't have the same frantic energy I had before - I'm doing meaningful work, I'm in this for the long haul, and I can't do this alone, so I can pace myself instead of panicking that I need to keep studying so I can reach my next career milestone.

The philosophers were right - find your meaning.

I've heard the advice before about trying to find a way to use programming within your current field, and couldn't think of any connections with my field - but I appreciate that your comment has helped me think of this a bit more broadly. For example, in my work at a church I plan events, coordinate volunteers, oversee the use of budgets, etc. Will think on this more, thanks! Project manager position is an interesting idea.
From the Descrption:

"In the 1980s, Mead and Conway democratized chip design and high-level language programming surpassed assembly language programming, which made instruction set advances viable. Innovations like Reduced Instruction Set Computers (RISC), superscalar, and speculation ushered in a Golden Age of computer architecture, when performance doubled every 18 months. The ending of Dennard Scaling and Moore’s Law crippled this path; microprocessor performance improved only 3% last year! In addition to poor performance gains, Spectre recently demonstrated timing attacks on modern microprocessors that leak information at high rates.

The ending of Dennard scaling and Moore’s law and the deceleration of performance gains for standard microprocessors are not problems that must be solved but facts that if accepted offer breathtaking opportunities. We believe high-level, domain-specific languages and architectures, freeing architects from the chains of proprietary instruction sets, and the demand from the public for improved security will usher in a new Golden Age for computer architecture. Aided by open source ecosystems, agilely developed chips will convincingly demonstrate advances and thereby accelerate commercial adoption. The instruction set philosophy of the general-purpose processors in these chips will likely be RISC, which has stood the test of time. We envision the same rapid improvement as in the last Golden Age, but this time in cost, energy, and security as well as in performance."

"David Patterson is a professor emeritus of Computer Science at UC Berkeley, a distinguished engineer at Google, and Vice-Chair of the Board of Directors of the RISC-V Foundation. He received his BA, MS, and PhD degrees from UCLA.
His most successful research projects were likely Reduced Instruction Set Computer (RISC), Redundant Array of Inexpensive Disks (RAID), and Network of Workstation (NOW). All three projects helped lead to multibillion-dollar industries. This research led to many papers and seven books, with the best known being Computer Architecture: A Quantitative Approach co-authored by John Hennessy, now in its sixth edition. His most recent book is The RISC-V Reader: An Open Architecture Atlas , co-authored by Andrew Waterman.

Patterson is a member of the National Academy of Engineering, the National Academy of Sciences, and the Silicon Valley Engineering Hall of Fame. His teaching was honored with the ACM Karlstrom Award and the IEEE Mulligan Medal. As a past president of ACM and a past Chair of CRA, he received Distinguished Service Awards from ACM, CRA, and SIGARCH and the Tapia Achievement Award for Scientific Scholarship, Civic Science, and Diversifying Computing."

Depends on what you mean by "mass production". Most of these high performance vehicles are small volume production for major brands and are sold often at a loss as halo cars to improve brand image so they don't appear boring. Look at the Toyota 86 as an example, there are multiple entire spec series and spec classes built around this chassis in different racing organizations around the world. At the same time, this car that's been produced since 2012 and is still in production has a total global sales volume over its entire lifespan and its siblings (FRS, BRZ) that is less than 1/10th of the the sales volume of Camry for a single calendar year just in the US. But unlike Camry, I would hazard the guess that at least 1/4th of all the FRS/86/BRZ sold will see track time before they end up in a scrap yard (maybe not with the original owner, though).
Ember was the first framework I used and also the most frustrating. At least with Vue and React I can poke at the internals and they make sense, but Ember's internals had so many oddities that thoroughly confused me.

I don't see anything disrespectful in that comment; it was made entirely in good faith.

That concept becomes tricky in situations like this, because you're assuming bad faith, and then tone policing based off that. My point of view is that you got it wrong this time, but that doesn't really matter, you're the one with the hammer, boss. o7

Fwiw, HN needs an alert/messaging system of some kind to deliver these moderation messages to users. If I don't see you responded in an official capacity before I post enough to push it to second page of my profile, I may never see it, which means it's not serving it's entire purpose. The public signaling part works, but the direct signaling could easily get lost. I know usually you aren't doing this a day later, but in those cases, there's gotta be a better solution.
