The point of those groups is that they are closed. Similar to how "Secret" Facebook groups became the late 00s equivalent of invite-only PHPBB forums (think what.cd). If you're part of whatever political or ideological movement is en vogue, you're free to candidly speak on whatever public platform you choose. If you aren't... You end up inviting a few like-minded friends to a Signal group to share your real thoughts and ask questions. They, in turn, invite a few more people. After a few months, you find yourself in a full-blown community; one where you can get all kinds of useful information.

But those communities aren't interested in advertising their existence.
No, the limit is 80 characters, and the current title is 73, so "Series " would fit. Also, "2.3k", besides being confusing, is not actually an abbreviation of 2297. len('2297 Patch Series Would Improve Linux Build Times 50~80% & Fix "Dependency Hell"') == 80. Better would be to replace "Patch" with "Commit", since that's how Molnar describes it, but that would take rewording (or removal of quotes) to fit on HN. "Times" -> "Rates" would be sensible too.
Actually, Wikipedia has similar issues to Google SEO spam, in the sense you now have people who pay marketing firms for articles to be written on themselves/their company. These articles, unsurprisingly, often infringe core policies like maintaining a neutral point of view.

With respect, I don't think the problem is as bad as you suggest. Some pretty awful articles have survived deletion processes so long as they are on a notable topic.
Nope, you misunderstand what I am saying. Every transaction loses money and this is built in. That's not true for cash.
How many people get 'long Covid'? More than half, researchers find

I'm struggling to imagine a definition of "adversarial" that would make this true. You have two parties with conflicting goals.
Well, obviously SCP-294 agrees it's a terrible idea. Possible invocation of self-preservation logic.
You don't need that CORS request
It is hard to tell and most people don’t know what to look for. And I don’t expect them to.

The problem is people do whatever they think will help instead of listening.
Honestly, I am starting to think the open source movement has done as much harm as the subscription model to the scientific information ecosystem. The incentives are so high now to get volume published in pay to publish journals, leading to rushed peer reviews. Also APCs skew who can publish 'well'. The APCs for some top Cell and SpringerNature journals are about ten thousand fucking dollars. Great that the public can access it but that's money that either doesn't go to research or has to come out of taxpayer funded grants and straight into the pockets of publishers with huge margins. OA has also spawned a massive predatory journal market.
PG did a tweet stream on Google's vulnerability and how a startup might attack it.

FFG Star Wars is actually one of the ones I was specifically thinking about there. It does well in other ways, but it's still deeply locked into the D&D pattern of it being vital to accumulate money and stuff, leading to absurdities like Jedi padawans not having a lightsaber because by the rules they can't afford it.
Isnt that the yc guy? This seems to me like a call for entrepreneurial people to come up with google alternatives just so that YC can dip their fingers in it while doing jack.
Tv and radio couldn't provide you with a constant stream of curated likes and messages. By social factor alone, this on a whole different level.

I don’t think everyone sees marriage the same way.

Vows are not morally or legally binding. It’s good if people want to take them seriously but people leave each other for lesser things than decades long depression.
You can get structural rated screws in pretty much any Home Depot or Lowes in the US and they don't cost that much relative to all the other expenses building that shed.

Telling people to not use structural screws is wrong, they are far superior to nails for DIY person. For starters using the right nail isn't that easy either - do you know if you inspector allows clipped head nails? Are you driving them in pressure treated wood? If so, do you have the right nail? With a GRK R4, you don't have to worry about any of those issues. They are easy to drive with an impact driver, for a noob, they are faster than driving a nail by hand, they can be removed, they are less likely to split wood.

The important thing here is that neither nails nor screws are "all the same". Know what you are using them for and use the correct ones. If you use any hangers or other ties, you can generally use screws or nails, but you MUST read the spec sheet from the manufacture to get the correct ones. Even "professional" home builders frequently use the wrong fasteners for these applications.

Do you still have contact with VC in China now? Is it still like this?
Using Firefox here since nearly forever, save for a short time with Chrome many years ago, and have never been happier. As for services, YMMV, but Fastmail, DuckDuckGo, Startpage, are widely considered good alternatives for email and search.
Other more specific services might be harder to swap with others, but it all depends on which services and how they're used.
What’s the right way in your view? My biggest issue is dedicating time to such a practice, so I was going to consider some of the popular apps that do a good job of nudging you. That said, I’m fairly certain they aren’t faithful to the cultural practices they’re co-opting from and I’m curious if there’s a better way.
I'm sure that was the patch.
Awesome WebDAV
I wonder if PG started YC after writing this and thinking, I can do better.
My experience is that a large number of gas stations east of the Mississippi have an $8ish car wash that includes an underbody spray when you drive into the wash bay. Just get a few of those every winter, drive slowly when entering the wash bay, and never worry about corrosion.
It's kind of natural for what it is: It started off as a version number. Then someone realized that having semantic information of when that version was issued was useful, so they started using YYMMDDNNN version numbers instead. This worked fine, but then you got to YY being large enough to cause the number to not fit into a signed int32. Oops.
I have been learning new things since I started _making_ videos on TikTok.

Ironically, making highly digestible content for social media is something that requires a certain amount of sustained attention.
I'll add that. I do have the benchmarking from Blindsight, the Scala logging API, and it's on the order of nanoseconds:

Might as well ask: What if something humans recognized as intrinsic to the world around them is actually part of the world around them. Silly.
What I mean about macros is that there just aren't a lot of problems that are really well suited to solution via meta-programming. People should be free to program however they want, but if we're evaluating the power of a language I think its fair to talk about the frequency and type of problems you might need to solve.

I think you're right about CL and CLojure, though. While I really prefer Scheme, its not really appropriate for solving a large set of practical problems.
It sounds like your anxiety is triggering a fight-or-flight response. If it were me in your shoes, I would tell my manager about the amount of anxiety you're experiencing and your desire to fix it, and then take the next week off or a 4 day weekend to try and decompress. If your manager is good and values you, they will be concerned and supportive, and you'll be able to fix the problem together.

If you aren't physically active but you're able to be, getting into an exercise routine that either involves some high intensity cardio or weight lifting would probably be help your mental state. The trick is to get out of your comfort zone and feel physically sore from it afterwards.

I felt anxious and depressed a couple years into working at SpaceX. Once I became consciously aware of it, I was able to tell my manager about it. A big part of it was poor alignment between my backlog of projects and my inherent interests. He moved mountains around so that I could work on something I was passionate about, and my last year there was a blast. I also started working out 3x a week including jogging and rock climbing, and went from being able to barely do a pull-up to do being able to do 100 in a day.

After a few years at Google I was pretty jaded. I was already working on some cool stuff and liked my immediate team. My gripes had more to do with the corporate politics, and so I decided to leave to try a scrappy startup that was desperate for my skill set.

I've been at Zipline for over 5 years now and it's turning into a big company, but I have very little to complain about. In 2020 I was having some legit panic attacks while interacting with coworkers, though. I was going into full-on fight or flight mode. That just turned out to be all the atrioventricular nerves on my heart failing at once! Getting a pacemaker and then figuring out and addressing the root cause solved that problem pretty well. Now I just suffer from the occasional blood pressure spike when coworkers say or do something silly, like at any company. :-)
A relationship is a two party deal. If one party isn't holding up his/her half, for whatever reason, including mental illness, and isn't taking steps to improve, there isn't much to be done. One person alone can't make a relationship work.
A lot of it comes out as neutrinos though.
> Would they really care if the asset is cash or stocks?

You would think not, but I suspect that the process, or the people involved in the process, see a good amount of assets in stocks as an indicator of a more financially savvy applicant, which theoretically translates to a safer mortgage. Having a large amount of cash is ironically a bit suspicious looking as well. It is normal for banks to ask for many months of bank statements to verify that the cash is actually yours, and you aren't just temporarily holding onto it for someone else, or got a big transfer from parents / friends that you need to pay back. With stocks it is easy to see that you have had this asset for a while, so they can trust that it is actually yours.
use a password manager, not your browser, to manage passwords, something like bitwarden or lastpass.

> built from technology few now understand,

Now you’re just being dramatic. I’d review the whole comment and de-dramatize it.

Yes the web has changed and most Forums are dead, but it doesn’t mean change is not possible. Blogs are still a thing, even if you get to them through Twitter.

The issue stems from Google rewarding junk and people wanting to monetize their content. Couple the two and you have lengthy BS lost in ads, while short clean content is lost on page 59 – but it’s there.
Long ago I learned a lesson: Don't write your own date time handling code.

(because you will always miss something)
There was also an Age of Empires 2 patch that fixed a bug in Linux that made the game pan indefinitely to some corner after running the game and alt-tabbing to another window momentarily.
The challenge has been to monetize that experience. I wonder if either an explicit membership model to access advice or a sales advice Uber service that rates both sales person and customer to assist with improving sales transaction communication, can be one part of a solution to preserve the immediacy of brick and mortar. I doubt it; there is likely more value to identifying those items that consumers will buy without waiting for delivery, more emergency-type purchases, marking them up to the limit, abandoning all other products to online ordering, and optimize brick and mortar floor space to cater exclusively to those need-right-now purchases.

And even that might not last long. Warehouse demand is exploding across the world right now. We're in the midst of a massive commerce transformation where there are a lot of giants racing to establish JIT delivery footprints in the most high-margin MSA's containing 80% of every nation's population. It won't be long before we're in a Stephenson'ian Snow Crash-esque world where we're getting an ML-computed 80% of goods everyone orders within 30 minutes, 15% of goods in 4 hours, 4% of goods in a day, and the remaining 1% in five days.

Once that happens, I would be surprised to see supermarkets or even small groceries outside of very niche segments like ethnic and farmer's markets, or hyper niche high-end shops like butchers specializing in rare quality cuts, exist in brick and mortar form, unless you go to where 20% of the population lives in low-density areas not served by these logistical nets.
A study of covering seven sites in the US from December 14, 2020 from July 31, 2021 found lower non-COVID mortality among vaccination individuals:

The article was good, without the "Morons" at the end directed at Hangzhou Sage chemical company. It didn't need that, and it reeks a little of racism to pretend they're morons for working with FOOF, considering how much he lauded respect on Streng for doing so. The article already had good comic effect without needing to do it at someone else's expense whether it was racist or just cruel and dismissive.
Welcome to BCD numbers, the staple of financial arithmetics since 1950s!
Zotero is amazing. The iOS beta makes reading PDFs in your library pure bliss. I could have self-hosted a file store, but I went with the paid one instead to send the devs a little love. (And money.) They’re sooooooo awesome. Super responsive when I’ve asked questions, and the beta has been rock solid.

(That said, any devs here? Why haven’t you shipped this epic app?)

Deep appreciation for excellent, open-source software that is really polished.
So… you’re saying it’s a sensationalized headline because 95% could cover it “somehow”? I think the missed point here is that while 65% have savings, there are 35% on the brink of financial disaster. I guess having to ask your family to help cover a $1000 bill does mean it got paid, but living under such conditions is exhausting.
Both people take the vows. It isn't one person promising to suffer the other no matter what he/she does.
This is not a date string. It's a version number. The version number happens to have a date embedded inside it. That's not for the computers, but for the humans looking at it to be able to get some useful information at a glance. The app was treating it simply as a version number and caring about "which is higher?" and nothing else.
The point of the interface is that the person authoring the code defines the internals.
I find the verifier to be extremely frustrating. It's also very difficult to debug eBPF programs, especially in regards to why it's not passing verifier. Combine with ridiculous restrictions from BCC like not being able to use functions in macros, or the vagueries of the bpf target in clang and it's extremely frustrating.

I've personally never found obtaining a working kernel tree to be difficult, certainly easier than a working BCC toolchain. Or all of the various compiler flags needed for clang not to emit code incompatible with the verifier.
>I think this approach is reasonable for any business

It's reasonable for business, but not reasonable for society (because healthcare should be more risk adverse than a business). That's why the hospital system for op of this thread, which is German, isn't a business, and why they get to complain about how it's deployed
“ No, elemental fluorine has commanded respect since well before anyone managed to isolate it, a process that took a good fifty years to work out in the 1800s. (The list of people who were blown up or poisoned while trying to do so is impressive).”

The link intrigued me to click but unfortunately it 404ed. That led me to hunt down the list, and I found this snippet on an Royal Society of Chemistry page [0]:

“Sir Humphry Davy, Louis-Joseph Gay Lussac and Louis-Jacques Thenard all suffered intensely from the effects of inhaling hydrogen fluoride. Davy suffered injury to his eyes and fingernails. George Knox and his brother, Thomas Knox, both suffered from hydrofluoric acid poisoning. Thomas Knox nearly died. Paul Louyet and Jerome Nickles died during their investigations, presumably due to the effects of inhaling HF.”

Vows are absolutely morally binding. That's why they are taken. But they are taken together, mutually.
> And of course giant investments mean giant valuations. They have to

This reads like satire these days because so many of YC's top companies are exactly that: companies losing hundreds of millions, or even billions of investor money every year, but all having insane valuations [1]

Without clarifying questions, often you assume something about the problem that's not actually the case. And a brute force solution is often very useful to learn more about the problem domain. Personally I really like doing a bad solution before a better one. Especially in the setting where it's not completely whiteboard, so I have the ability to run and test my code, then having a brute force solution around to debug the problem is useful.
My feeling is that it takes a longer period of time to “unlock” the actual vacation stage if you’ve been at it for a while and have accumulated mental baggage. Maybe that’s burn out, I’m not sure. But I think there’s a negative period you have to get past before you are content and productive without work being that productive outlet. Another part of all this is that social media in particular has eroded our ability to sit still and be content. That needs its own detox process.
I imagine this could be useful for iterated crypto use cases, where you need to brute force hash(hash(hash(…))) as quickly as possible, you can’t parallelize by design, and some hardware failure is acceptable for extra speed.

Perhaps this is a way for Intel to either avoid their inventory being eaten up by miners solving these problems, or to upsell to other CPU lines?
The problem is not that computers are bad are math (they are arguably perfect at doing math for the operations definition they are given), it is that we think that we are using real numbers and the associated operations when we are using IEEE-754 floating point numbers and the associated operations.

IEEE-754 is actually quitte good at what it does (fast computations, on numbers covering a wide range, while staying accurate accross a large number of operations despite being encoded in finite precision) but it is not real number and it might not be optimal for a given application (maybe you want perfect precision and don't care about speed, maybe you want speed and don't care that much about the result: IEEE-754 is somewhere in the middle, used by people who care enough about speed to run their code on supercomputers and want precision good enough to predict whether their plane will fly given the simulation results).
I think my favorite from the series is this one, about a high-nitrogen compound so wildly unstable that it detonated when the lab turned on the spectrometer:

Arguments are evaluated in a different order to modern lisps. It's fexprs. It's weird in tcl because you might see weird macros that are built from the inside out, which is not how they're done with lisp. Like, with syntax-case, you're replacing terms in forms, but tcl does it with upvar and uplevel, so the relation of the form (whitespace matters) and you have to manage items carefully (scoping)

It sucks. Tcl will break you down.

Not original commenter, btw.
Passion doesn't come from money, but many people strive, and succeed, to be paid for the thing they are passionate about.

In other words, in a perfect world, someone recognizes the value-add of your passion, and offers you money to do what you would do for free.

Evidence of this is all around us, and while most won't get this, some significant proportion of people pull it off.
It’s bad faith to compare a nonviolent protest by 300 people to an insurrection by thousands. No lawmakers were in fear of their life in the Kavaugh protest and the floor of the Senate and the House remained protected. Also the goal was not to overturn the Presidential election. That these two events are incomparable is obvious.

Regardless of whatever happened in the past the fact remains that the government was almost overthrown on January 6 and the instigators (the top leaders) have not been brought to justice.
Reminds me of the Neal Stephenson novel Zodiac, where a similar agent was used in an offensive manner.
They don't work with it though.

The insult was for abusing that catalogue and falsely claiming they could commercially produce and ship something that they could not, and I think it was fairly deserved. I don't really see any sort of racial dogwhistles or subtext here, this reads like a small snipe over questionable business practices.
I have also thought of the tie it the buyer idea and overall I think that would destroy the scalping market

I like your idea about the fluidity of market rate with something being done good with the amount above x price
Re; recipes, look for the "Jump to recipe" button. It's always there, you don't have to scroll.
yeah just minimize the PR like I minimized this thread..
No physics problem? I consider a fully equipment fireman carrying a person trying to squeeze between the house and the shed to be a physics problem. And yes, those situations are considered when codes are written.
This is the approach I imagine Apple would take if they were to ever launch a Search Engine. A large corpus of handpicked sites.
> The huge investments themselves are something founders would dislike, if they realized how damaging they can be. VCs don't invest $x million because that's the amount you need, but because that's the amount the structure of their business requires them to invest. Like steroids, these sudden huge investments can do more harm than good. Google survived enormous VC funding because it could legitimately absorb large amounts of money. They had to buy a lot of servers and a lot of bandwidth to crawl the whole Web. Less fortunate startups just end up hiring armies of people to sit around having meetings.

I really saw this at the first startup I worked at. We did a massive VC round (I think the largest in Canadian tech history?), hired like absolute crazy after it. The company got bureaucratic and bloated, lost the ability to move quickly and efficiently, and never got it back.

I still loved working there for the coworkers, management and interesting problems, but I don’t think the investment was good for the company long term. A company of ~150 people grew to ~1000 in a year, but I think the 1000 people got less done, with a lot less agility, than the 150. Not out of laziness, just too many people for the size of the business problem, which led to a lot of unnecessary communication/coordination overhead. Even disregarding the salary costs, I think had we stayed a lot smaller/leaner, we would have been able to move a lot faster, be more innovative, and ultimately become a larger/more successful company.
Yeah, and for “professionals” it’s pretty rare to find someone that doesn’t at least like the field they chose, spent 4+ years of university on, and applied for jobs in. It’s vanishingly rare to find someone exceptionally talented in a field they hate because of the practice it takes to get to that level.
