I agree with that.
The only thing I have an objection to is that it would be so painful to give up a portion of the consumption, because some of it is truly excessive and encouraged mostly by advertising and 'influencers'. To which I don't have a solution except trying to reduce the relentless consumerism and trying to convince people they'll be much happier with stuff they can buy outright and truly own (see Right To Repair) than with stuff they have to buy on credit and don't really own anyway (see iPhones and Audible collections).
I could perhaps have been hasty to condemn him to some degree. However I think it is critical to our society that men teach boys how to be men. I find that what is called toxic masculinity is often men who haven't been instructed and are doing a thin impersonation of what they believe it to be. We can't let other men off the hook so easily, given that those choices echo down the generations. I don't believe the posters father will ever read what I wrote, but I hope the poster does, and when he finds that his children need him I hope he understands how trivial someone else's deadline is in comparison to their need for their father.
That’s awesome. Godspeed!

I ate the shed. The course is well designed. Maybe you can add some reminders, e.g. answer should be in a format like 1/5 rather than 0.2. :)
It's humorous, though...
We probably can't adapt fast enough. Change sea level a few inches - coral reefs die off and start regrowing at the new optimal shore location. It takes 100 years to rebuild.

Meanwhile fish populations oscillate. When they are low, people (2B of them) go hungry. Hungry people protest, governments change or fall, wars start.

Remember those thousands of Syrian refugees that caused such a stir? That was a few thousand people. Raise that to 10,000, then 100,000, then 1M, then 10M, then 100M.

We have no conceivable way to humanely cope with worldwide upset of that magnitude. If it comes to pass, it will surely collapse civilization. As it has repeatedly in the past - Mayan, Babylonian, everybody throughout human history.

And that's just fish.

So Home and End don't go to the start and end of line, respectively, when I hit those connected via a remote terminal (using PuTTY).

Seems to be universal to the entire OS, as I get this behavior in bash, vim, and pretty much everything else. I applied some kind of hack to make it work correctly in bash on the host OS, but it doesn't work correctly in vim or other programs, or anything in any jailed OS.

They do seem to work fine at a local console though, so I'm wondering if its my term emulation settings in PuTTY.
How is this significantly different from getting lots and lots of people sick during the pandemic? Either way there is evolutionary pressure being placed on the virus, etc. this strikes me as “let’s get everybody infected as quickly as possible so the virus has no place to go, and hopefully it won’t evolve too fast to stop”. Just ignore the pile over there…
It looks like he's shot from the front because it looks like there's a splash of matter from his face - like you'd get if you threw a water balloon at him.

But rifle bullets aren't water balloons. They don't splash on human flesh - they do on concrete or steel - but not flesh. They go through and what you are seeing is ejecta from a bullet passing through JFK's head and exiting, leaving a high pressure mess behind and a small hole for it to leave by.

Just finished up my blog post and would love your feedback! Understanding how to merge several AWS services into a single cohesive, secure implementation can be a challenge. While online resources are great, they can sometimes contain conflicting information. Read this extremely detailed example of how to set up CloudFront with S3 to serve up files via signed URLs. Hoping this can be a goto resource for building your own secure cloud-native content delivery system and unshackle you from getting buried in hundreds of pages of AWS documentation.

CBS and Dan Rather successfully reproduced the shooting by putting marksmen on a tower of the same height, firing at a moving target with the same rifle. Several hit with two bullets; one hit with three bullets. All fired three rounds within six seconds.

Video of their tests: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ghmY6HmR4fs

Regarding the "magic bullet", PBS showed how the path lines up when you correctly locate Connelly in the jump seat, which was lower and offset, turn Connelly slightly in his seat, and have JFK leaning forward a bit, as he was known to do because of back pain. The magic bullet trajectory isn't very magical.

It’s not a waste. Referring to mac purchases as “wasteful” recycles tropes that are just false. That’s all I’m getting at. But I realize I’m shilling for a company that doesn’t need me to. Buy them, or don’t. It doesn’t matter to me or to Apple really. I prefer them for hardware. I like MacOS most of the time but sometimes yearn for Linux though things on my mac just work and I’m super keen to move to the M1 or M2.

> This was breaking systems with more than 256 TiB of RAM - I wonder why nobody noticed?

Are there even ARM systems with that amount of RAM? I assume it's something in the order of what super computers use, but I don't think any of them are ARM. That doesn't sound that surprising to me that no one noticed if no one uses that much RAM.

I may or may not be building a shed in my spare time for the past 5 years, but I'm positive I'm not making a cake. With prototyping and user feedback it feels like I'm not building a shed, but the effort many times feels like I'm building a shed. That said, the shed definition could be clearer because there are parts of my passion project that makes it feel like I'm building a shed (i.e. marketing).
It's a pull from your bank account. You give the merchant your account details and sign* an authorization and they "pull" the money from your account. Afterward you can cancel the charge without giving a reason for a few weeks, or if the charge was unauthorized for up to 2 years. The only downside compared to chargebacks is that you are not protected in case of insolvency of the merchant.**

> What are the expensive consequences you are talking about?

The system offers no security for the merchant - in fact cancelled charges cost a fee, even if the charge was completely valid.

* yes - physical signature on paper, except when paying online

** this is a topic for a full comment on it's own, but here's the gist: Under German law you can't "take back" your money from an company that has filed for bankruptcy - in fact even payments made to you before the filing might be clawed back by the administrator - which means that you will receive (and customers from insolvent airlines have received) an angry letter demanding the money back. With chargebacks this is less likely to happen as the chargeback will be paid for by the merchant's bank, not the merchant directly, but the legal situation is unclear.

I'm going through something similar at a much smaller scale (startup CTO of 2 years, not much growth). It's been enough to make me want to quit software engineering altogether. It sucks.

At least your company is growing and you know that you are a decent developer.

Maybe you can take a sabbatical. Talk to your partner if you are on good terms. Make sure to explore your options.

Hope you find a way to move forward and regain your confidence.
Just click the link. I copied here for you: https://www.reddit.com/r/DIY/comments/czg04y/shed_is_finally...

Summary: The guy bought a house and decided he wanted to build a shed. He bought the plans, poured the slab, and then life happened.

Basically, every time he had time / money to work on his shed, some kind of obligation came up or some kind of emergency ate away at his shed funds.

IMO, I think it's just a case of the shed not being that important, but the joke being "worth it." If it really was important he'd have figured out how to finish it more quickly. (It's not that expensive to have someone deliver a small shed to a home.)

To scale to thousands (is this even useful?) of e2e users build a tree of participants who can remix each other's video.

Pick a handy mixing ratio like 4:1 or 9:1 (a square helps, since they compose nicely if downscaled to a grid vs. active talker stays fullscreen) and nodes with the highest bandwidth and lowest latency take M-1 streams and add it to their own to make an M:1 mix which can be forwarded to a node closer to the root which produces another M:1 stream, and the root sends a single mixed stream down the tree until every participant has the mix. Max bandwidth at each node is M down and M up. Minimal spanning tree with max M edges per node recomputed as participants leave and join. Build 3 or 4 distinct trees and leave the connections open for more rapid switching if intermediate nodes stop participating.
I literally just dropped £4,099 on a fully loaded MacBook Pro 16" with those specs. I could not be happier. Its going to be a great daily driver for many years to come. Also the construction is A+ and solid, makes my 2015 MacBook Pro feel cheap in comparison.
The government image hashes are supposed to be secret information, any crypto system is vulnerable if you assume the secrets are suddenly public information. I am sure plenty of crypto currency people would object to saying the system is insecure because anyone can post a transaction with your private key.

More importantly hash collisions result in manual review by humans at Apple, hardly a major issue. This is also a safety measure protecting users from political images being tagged in these database.

I hope so! ~50% of people in a developed country get cancer within their lifetime and they cost our healthcare system the most (other than, err, very sick elderly people).

If this works safely and reliably, then this is like doubling or 5x'ing our healthcare budget over 5 years.

I wouldn't mind if people could opt-out of mRNA cancer treatment, but then they have to pay for every other cancer treatment option (and all doctor visits) out of pocket.
Part of the support YC companies get is the ability to periodically post ads on the HN front page. Part of the point of this forum is to promote YC companies and encourage people to apply for YC. The post would have been deliberately put there by the moderators.

From the FAQ under Can I post a job ad:

Another kind of job ad is reserved for YC-funded startups. These appear on the front page, but are not stories: they have no vote arrows, points, or comments. They begin part-way down and fall steadily. Only one is on the front page at a time. The rest are listed at jobs.
Those are some amazing performance metrics! What's the catch? Is there a tradeoff or did you really find a 10x efficiency?
Perhaps. Not everyone can learn everything, and blaming the father for his shortcomings because he was apparently smart in other fields ("in a problem solving field") is just callous. Yes, the world would have been slightly better if he could have done it. But sometimes the world is not as great as we would like, and people inside it do not live up to our (or even their own) expectations. They deserve empathy, not to be called cowards in internet comments by people who never knew them.

I don’t need to refute your response. In fact after seeing the update I agree that CSAM is not yet defeated.

That doesn’t change the fact that your commenting tactics are dishonest. That is the problem here. You cannot be trusted not to edit upthread comments.
This is so fun! And you’re right, I had no idea even though I tinker around in playgrounds a bit. Thanks for sharing!
I’ve made two side projects so far. The first was a visual JVM profiler that was very complex and educational/intellectually satisfying to build but when I finished it I had little interest or know-how or capital to invest in growing + marketing it.

The second one was as simplest as I could possibly make it. I had basically 2 hours per weekend in 2021 (kids & all) and I rigorously stuck within my estimated scope. I was really focused on making cake. I use the app all the time; it’s at least cake to me. In 2022 I’ll have to figure out if other people think it’s cake, too. But at least no will able to say I over-scoped it, or over-estimated it.
>Look at any poll out there.

I don't trust polls. Dehumanizing people into numbers is pointless. People are not numbers, and the elections showed how worthless they are.

During Obama there were raids on dispensaries. These labels are meaningless.

We are not liberal or conservative. We are people with many different often hypocritical viewpoints, nobody is consistent. Nixon’s universal healthcare would have been more comprehensive than Obamacare, but Senator Kennedy rejected it. Politicians are opportunistic, Obama said he was not pro gay marriage, and Nixon said he’d never put in price controls (he did). Clinton was a carbon copy of a republican and weakened welfare and popularized super predators as well as deregulate heavily.

Let’s not fight over labeling, let’s agree all politicians are dishonest.

I’m a fan of lower taxes (I think it’s silly to expect to give money to government and expect a bigger return), deregulation in over regulated markets that serves to only help big businesses, entropy in energy waste/use, removing subsidies from farming since it’s harmful to the environment and health, making natural resources into corporations so they have the sane rights as citizens and can sue for damages done.

Contracts have no legal requirement to be fair or balanced. Consideration does need to exist, but does not need to be equitable. So yes, it is exploitative, but that does not make it illegal.

Swift Playgrounds has been around for quite some time.

I’d also hesitate to think of it as a way to “program on an iPad.” It’s a slimmed down IDE + visualization pane intended to be an educational environment for people wanting to learn programming fundamentals, Swift specifically, or how to program one of the robots/drones/programmable devices that have a companion lessonbook.

As I described above with my link to the video of CBS, in 1967, testing the difficulty of those shots, they had multiple marksmen hit with two shots, and one hit all three, firing the same rifle from the same height at a moving target, within six seconds. It really wasn't that difficult for a practiced shooter.

Jetson sounds interesting.

But mobile phones offer many sensors, computing power and a battery all packed together, so I might start with that. Or rather, have a smartphone for computation and remote connection and a arduino for directly controlling the servos. Or a lego mindstorm. Or both.

I think what he means with historically is before ASLR, DEP, and other mitigations, where a buffer overflow meant you can simply overwrite the return pointer at ESP, jump to the stack and run any shellcode.

i made some other replies that would imply otherwise but you do make a fair point. I think it's not fair to ask your partner/children to pay your ticket if you want to put work first however.

It is a solid, top-tier learning environment for kids and beginners. Apple has high standards for content you produce in a playgroundbook if you want to be in the main subscription set.

On the teams I've been on that mobbed extensively there were still people who preferred to work alone. Fortunately the other team members respected that everyone has a different preference and work style. Sometimes it's good to stretch one's comfort zone to try new things, and I'd encourage those who haven't tried mobbing to try it occasionally, but I wouldn't recommend it as something to do all the time. If it's a forced thing or something you do without question or exception, it'll easily become one or two people doing all the work with another just watching or joking around, and sometimes it's not easy to recognize who should be splitting off and who should be staying on, so often everyone stays on with different people alternately drifting in and out of an engaged, participatory state.

This is addressed in the "Common misconception" of the "California Duck Curve" article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duck_curve

> California's annual demand peaks usually occur around 3 pm to 5 pm, when solar power output is still substantial. The reason that California's annual peak tends to be earlier than the daily peak is that California's annual peak usually occurs on hot days with large air conditioning loads, which tend to run more during midday.

TLDR: The overall peak is between 3 and 5PM.
