And released it with NO WARRANTY. And no mega corp thought it’d be a good idea to try and buy one.

> To me, this is the pretentious part. I didn't write the code, I don't use the code, so why in the world should I be expected to fix the code? Do you use the code? Why didn't YOU fix it?

If you don’t use it, then noone’s expecting you to fix anything. But those out there using it for free, complaining that it’s broken, and not doing anything to help? They should hush their hush holes. Or open pull requests. But mostly hush their hush holes.
Does that actually do anything? I was always under the impression the DNT header was just screaming into the void.
Let me tell you how tens of thousands, and eventually hundreds of thousands of students totally skipped Wolfram products and proprietary science products in general.

Wolfram products are very highly priced, even much more so for the Indian market.

Indian science and engineering colleges are usually very poorly funded save some IITs and premier provincial universities.

There is no way in hell these colleges could ever have afforded MATLAB or Wolfram products.

C and ForTran were taught at science institues- even at the very best ones.

Students only learned this.

By the year 2018, all of science universities of India fully switched to Python for Physics, Maths, Chemistry, etc. majors.

They now teach NumPy, SciPy, Matplotlib, etc.

They totally skipped Wolfram and Mathworks products.

Why do I say "skipped"? Because with rapid economic growth and visible improvements in college fundings, Indian unis would have soon been able to afford proprietary science software. But they skipped it.

They went straight from ForTran and C to Python ecosystem.

Now, the market is flooded with thousands of core science grads with Python skills who have never worked with MATLAB or Mathematica.

They are the losers in their models.
Perhaps. If so, the world is watching:

"It has been frequently remarked that it seems to have been reserved to the people of this country, by their conduct and example, to decide the important question, whether societies of men are really capable or not of establishing good government from reflection and choice, or whether they are forever destined to depend for their political constitutions on accident and force. If there be any truth in the remark, the crisis at which we are arrived may with propriety be regarded as the era in which that decision is to be made; and a wrong election of the part we shall act may, in this view, deserve to be considered as the general misfortune of mankind." -- Alexander Hamilton, Federalist Papers #1
Some things to consider:

The Hacker News founder matching network is a good way to find things to work on. Everybody wants technical labor but no one has enough cash to pay. You can take your pick of an interesting company. Just keep it quiet that you're wealthy, so you don't get taken advantage of.

Also, there's nothing wrong with getting a job. It's a good way to learn business. (I've worked with at least one person who worked for pleasure because they needed the stress.) Again, keep your wealth quiet because you don't want to be seen as the guy threatening to quit whenever you don't get your way.

Frankly, if I was in your shoes I'd either find or start an open-source software project, and spend about 30ish hours a week on it. But I'm not you, and only you know what you want to do with your time.

I severely overloaded a reference to C-family syntax and should have provided multiple examples instead. I erred, by trying to avoid C, C++, Java etc. specific comparisons.

What I should have written:

- Why is "Foo()" a function is being called with no parameters, which makes no sense.

- What is "A.B" Period gets read as a sentence terminator. I learned C++ and Java very early on in life and had never considered A.B to be an issue.

The rules in finance are clear. On top of that, every year you have to certify and confirm that you followed them. Willingly certifying to the contrary on a legally binding document has serious consequences. Sometimes to the tune of $200M…
$7.5M euros is a nice sum, but not really enough to do what you suggest IMHO.
Kids certainly give us purpose and meaning! :)
Take time, find friends, find a passion outside of IT. Maybe work somewhere physical for a while. Woodwork helps many. Stay away from false friends, drugs and thing which derail life in general.

If you cannot stay away from planing stuff, maybe plan you villa. This is a project which also keeps your busy for a while.

You feel goalless because you have been founder/investment/career driven before. And this was ripped away from you. This is quite usual. I can only recommend to reset, detox, etc and then see afterwards whether you want to do another round on that or what you discovered meanwhile
Not approving of what OP said, I’d point out that everyone has an interest in it being fixed, because it’s a wide spread and severe CVE that impacts lots of software that we all probably use daily without knowing it.
Au contraire, once you have beaten the long odds of going from 0 to 7.5M on what amounts to a lottery ticket, then beating the 50:50 odds of divorce seems a piece of cake.

More generally OP should feel like a god right now, what's the point of having 7.5M if succulent brain juices aren't flowing like the Mississipi river to signal that the world is yours?

He should be feeling confident about doing stuff way riskier than 50:50
And who expected a different result?

No shit... people with power will keep a door available for this technology as a tool to use on dissidents.

Easy. Give those money away - you have not earned them anyway. Then you will be back to your old self.
Yeah, this is what I was going to say. Depending on how you use it, 7.5 million Euro could either last you your entire life (with some left over for your descendants), or it could all be blown in a couple years. Some people who receive windfalls think they're in the first group, but actually end up in the second.
Purely anecdotally, but there's a weird thing with software engineering and architecture where it's heavily linguistic compared to older engineering disciplines.

For whatever reason there doesn't seem to be a huge overlap between people drawn to traditional engineering and linguistics.

I've repeatedly observed that some people have an affinity for the hardware (and are closer in disposition to engineers in other disciplines), some for the software, and only a smaller subset really enjoys both.

So much of what makes api's, languages and complex sytems easy to reason about are their linguistic ergonomics.

It's just a feeling but I hold the position that there is still a lot of room for improvement in language ergonomics and density, and that we're still closer to latin than english in both linguistic efficiency & developer tools.

https://www.realclearscience.com/blog/2015/06/whats_the_most...

I think DHH (and rails by extension) is an engineer with strong linguistic affinity biased towards financial utility. So it's no wonder that first blog video blew so many minds.
Wow, I'm supprised at all the false reasons, that are based on incorrect assumptions. For example, "bad design is expensive", the assumption is that Open Source has bad design. The assumption also is that Closed source is therefore good design. How can you know that a piece of software you can't see the source to has a better design than one you CAN see the source to? Just wow.
edit: to add to the expensive note: paying for a license yearly for eternity is supposidly cheaper than free?

Let me say, first off, that you are truly a kindred spirit. I really thought this is a problem only I had. I got out of it myself, and as I write this I find myself wishing someone had done this for me.

The biggest problem with "accidental wealth" is that the recipient always finds out the ugly reality that they don't know what money is (Debt, Surety, Accounting), because they have been trained from childhood that their fate is to labour 1/3 of their life for it. Now you HAVE it, and all the previous problems vanish.

The best plan is to build AGAIN. See if you can do it twice! Stay focused on creating/building. You already know you can do it. This eliminates the "backbone" of your current depression. You are still in study, and a Masters Degree is NOT easy, but you might consider expanding your studies to include ACCOUNTING

You sold what you created, and it is important to keep the value you attained. It cannot be stressed enough; SECURE YOUR WEALTH

First: Stop letting people know you are wealthy. Pretend you don't have it. live like everyone else.

Second: Start looking for ways to SECURE that wealth. Studying accounting is a VERY high ROI and will really help here.

While you do all that, look for a partner. You have the despair of someone who does not have anyone with them on their journey.

The replies to your post are inspiring! Read them! There's MILLIONS of dollars worth of free shit, just waiting to be exploited, in these.

That's my $10 worth of free advice.

Also: Thank you for posting this. It caused me to remember some very important things I've neglected.
I certainly agree, you wouldn't have much of a chance against a chimp one on one without weapons. It's just that the article isn't about chimps, but about much smaller macaques.

I was rejected 357 times before landing my dream job. Here’s what I learned
Nicely said. I share quite the same story as the OP with a few zeroes different in the final sum. I quit my job 8 months ago and basically felt the same boredom and depression feeling. But after 2 months of doing almost nothing my brain simply rested enough and returned to regular activity.

Then I spend almost every day checking my wish list:

- Paragliding? Yeah, did the basic training in 2 weeks.

- Kite surfing? Why not! It took me 6 months but it's sooo much fun.

- Skydiving? HELL YEAH. Did the basic training and looking forward to start jumping in wingsuit next year,

- moving to Asia? Looking forward for January 2022 in Thailand!

In the mid time I'm just doing all from your list: gym every second day, meditate every day (hey, why not go to the Buddhist temple if all your "physical" dreads are gone?), meeting with therapist and just simply enjoying my life. Now when I'm reaching limits of joyfulness I wish to use my time to help others.
Certain stories, I think, are very clear "bring your lawyer with you" situations!
I assume you use polling workers looking for the next job to grab for themselves?

Personally I do see the niceness of having a good pattern implemented using existing technology. Less deployment nonsense, less devops, less complexity, a few tables at most. I've done similar things in the past, it is nice.

For anyone who'd criticize, having complex deployments can be just about as much dev time, AND if implemented well, they can theoretically covert this whole thing to rabbitmq with minimal effort just by swapping the queueing system.

In any case, happy to see people mentioning how using existing simple tech can lead to fairly simple to manage systems, and still solve the problems you're trying to solve.
It's less about forgetfulness and more about convenience. The whole "setup an OTA antenna somewhere in/on your house/attic/roof, wire it up to your tuner, scan for channels, learn what direction to point the antenna for which stations, find a DVR that supports OTA", vs load an app, sign in and boom.

I'm a geek so, I'd LOVE to take this step. Unfortunately, I live in the part of the country that has too many mountains to make OTA reception an easy task. I personally live down between two ridges that make it so I'd have to have an antenna 150 feet in the air.
I doubt anyone here compares themselves to "most europeans". I am a european and it's a lot of money for me but I dont see it to be a life changing amount of money (as in I would be comfortable just spending it).

You can easily spend half of this money on on real estate.
This also reads like how to run a modern cable news network.
I have not talked to anyone about it

And do not, yet. Please read on “worst mistakes people make after winning a lottery”, “lottery winners go broke” and “what to do and not do if you win a lottery”. It’s not as simple as going to Vegas and spending it there. Even if you’re self-aware, this may ruin yours and your relatives life in very surprising ways.
This is why I’m a big fan of Fiestaware. It has a sort of fun retro vibe, but it also specifies that it’s “lead free” on it. (At least the stuff I’ve had for the last decade does. But I think it’s been lead free for most, if not all, of its history.)

I found a copy of 'Commodify Your Dissent' by Thomas Frank in a pile of free books when I was 17 and it had a significant and lasting impact on the way I viewed the world.
Graviton has entered the chat.

Seriously though, I think AWS making the price/perf advantageous towards ARM is probably doing more to push ARM in the cloud than anything else. I know I have moved all our Linux workloads to Graviton2 where I could for the cost savings.
The equivalence is between uniform acceleration and a uniform gravitational field. Breaking the uniformity, which the universe does for us whether we like it or not, has consequences.

Real gravitational sources aren't uniform (they tend towards spherical) and come equipped with a tidal field with a potential and gradient. This is intrinsically gravitational, not accelerational.

The non-uniform distribution of matter (including radiation) in the universe also matters.

You can rest an accelerometer on the surface of the Earth and it will report ~ 1 g (upwards) for many -- even billions of -- years, with no ill effect.

How long can you accelerate a rocket containing an identical accelerometer? Consider fuel, and crashing into matter (up to distant starlight and the cosmic microwave radiation) after a few months (of ship time) of the accelerometer indicating ~ 1 g (forwards).

You don't get strong twin-paradox effects involving the Moon-walking astronauts, or long-mission robot probes on the Moon or Mars, even though the local equivalent of "g" is considerably lower than that here on Earth. By comparison, if you and and two roughly identical astronauts were to undergo hundreds of days (or Martian sols, or a few lunar days) ship's time in spacecraft doing a round-trip under constant accelerations of ~ 1g, 0.6g, and 0.17g respectively, the lesser-accelerated "twins" would be visibly older than you at the end of your respective round-trip journeys.
Probably the exception is Blender, which is a big, complex GUI with gobs of features and is very compétitive.
If nobody found them funny, OP would have likely never came across them in the first place.

It is a slippery slope. I've never had such resources available but having said that, at this point in time I'm the wealthiest I've ever been by a considerable margin. Through a 8/h day jobs and no investing but that's somewhat irrelevant. I admit I have lost drive in the past on multiple occasions: whether that's been due to personal problems, shit jobs and a million and one other reasons. But the one thing that has always kept me on my feet(or helped me get back up) was new technology. At some point I started getting outside my comfort zone(that is the areas where I know I'm strong) and this has been my main motivation ever since. I still rely on my 9 to 6 job but there are so many things I am getting involved with in my personal time that even if I had millions in my pocket and could focus on them entirely, I still would struggle to fit them into the 24 available hours. Leave all the NFT and web3 bullshit aside - that's just another ponzi scheme to get masses of people pour their own money(hard or easy earned) into a bottomless pit. Personally - setting GPU prices aside, electronics are dirt cheap in general - sensors, communication systems, embedded systems, single board computers which have become insanely powerful and efficient - there is a huge void that hasn't been filled yet and keeps me up at night constantly. I'm not talking about alexa-enabled light bulbs. Just scroll through the mouser catalog and you'll see so many things that should exist but for one reason or another still don't. This is what my spare time has been revolving around lately and for what it's worth I've started working on an insanely ambitious project and if successful, I'll most certainly open source. My take is don't focus on what others are doing - there is no point in building yet another facebook, another netflix, amazon or blockchain - we have an abundance of those and no one really cares about them anymore. You are in the perfect position to try something that no one has ever done before. My advice - save some of your wealth as a pension fund, keep some of it as it is, invest some and set aside a fixed amount for experimenting and building things. Keep your eyes open, go outside your comfort zone often and you most certainly will keep your drive at high levels.
I bet one can predict better than random the gender of people based on their honest list of books that changed their life.
The title appears neutral, but I can't help but think "I've definitely been unwittingly poisoning myself" when I read it. But then in the findings it basically says it's a complete non-issue. I wish they would have included the findings in the title, it feels like click-bait.
stop gloating
However, on recent CPUs 4x4 is small for the innermost block size of the non-trivial hierarchy you need. You can see examples under https://github.com/flame/blis/tree/master/config with an a priori procedure for determining them in https://www.cs.utexas.edu/users/flame/pubs/TOMS-BLIS-Analyti... (but compare with what's actually used for SKX, in particular). OpenBLAS will normally be similar, though it may come out somewhat faster, but it's easier to see in BLIS.
Nice fiction. Farming clout for crypto on hacker news is next level of degeneracy. Also, 7.5 mil is not even lot of money to brag about. It will dry pretty fast considering inflation 5 years from now is going to be double digit.

I do some work with a national ceramics circle, and you're right, use of leaded glazes is uncommon and explicitly reserved for non-food-contact pieces. Unless they do restoration or period-work, it's about as common to see as leaded aviation fuel in a regular car owner's garage or someone reusing acid from a battery.

ASTM D-4236 conforming glazes will contain warning labels that clearly indicate that they are "non-toxic" or "dinnerware safe".
I would look at it as a great thing, it seems your only drive was making money before which is pretty sad by itself.

I'd first secure your money against inflation by investing 80% of it in safe assets (Real-estate, ETF's, investment contracts with reasonable target yield,...)

That should shield your wealth from inflation while making highly diversified returns in not very risky assets. Any private banker will be able to set those up for you.
There's also Liqid.de if you don't like bankers but private banks provide super cheap loans which can is helpful to leverage.

After that you should find out what you genuinely like and what you don't like by listening to your feelings and eliminate what you don't like and do more of what you really like. At some point that will roll into a new passion and new career.

For me, I just realized that I can't live without being an entrepreneur because all other career choices have too much certainty and boredom.

I'm always surprised how HN is disconnected from the reality sometimes.

It's basically 197 k$ a year until he "retires" at 65 in 38 years. And that's if he's keeping the money without investing it.
Right, I was about to say something along these lines. You're bumping into questions that philosophy and religion have been attempting to answer for as long as humans have had the time and energy to devote to such things. I'm not telling you to "get religion", just to engage their perspectives (which probably have more to offer in this regard than successful tech founders which have a far more narrow set of life experiences to draw from).
My read is that it's the other way around. i.e. what one could reasonably call Judaism is a good deal younger than the Torah, Hinduism a good deal younger than the Vedas. There are of course traditions within the religions that go back to those writings and further, but take that to its extreme and they all presumably stem from some ur-religion.
> Is this a joke?

I don't think it's fair to call it a joke, but if your intention is to shut down discussion that works. There is a robust discussion about blockchain energy usage which doesn't appear to be ideological, but I don't know enough yet to say.
+1 to what planetis mentioned. I didn't include a full explanation of the macro because I was more or less showing off a project - not doing a full tutorial of all of the internal bits and implementation details of what libraries I was using.

So in this case, the `template` bits are doing plain code substitution at compile time, and the buildHtml `macro` is doing more advanced code generation, also at compile time. This means that it should avoid the overhead you mentioned with a key-value struct/lambda.

For what it's worth, this could also have been implemented as a `proc` which would then take in a lambda/anonymous function to generate the HTML, but that incurs additional overhead and requires a bit of extra syntax, which felt like a hassle.
You're free and liberated. Try to find what actually makes you happy instead of grinding yourself down. It will probably be something that isn't related to money.
No. Meritocracy is not a word that was coined. Such a concept is.
It's like unbundling $20 CD into $1 singles. Be prepared for when you get what you wish for. Linear channels and bundling is all to maintain top level revenue. Demonetization will be the death of big budget productions like HBO. We will have more algorithm greenlit average quality content like what pads out Netflix's catalog.

In Chrome, there's already a toolbar displaying that you can install the website as PWA. In addition, a lot of websites already try to stop you from using the web in favour of using the app (e. g. Reddit). So, I don't see this as a new annoyance.
