“Cancer” is a little melodramatic.

Negative feedback (including yours, and mine, and that of those who may reply to this disagreeing with me) has its place.

I’ve seen forums (fora?) where almost everyone is exclusively positive (like some reddit look-what-I-made topics), and that well-intentioned behavior can be pretty unhelpful if you’re trying to get different perspectives on your own project.

Yet there are always people there who bend over backwards to make someone feel bad if the person was (sarcasm: rude enough) to suggest there may be a way to improve something. Enforcing the positivity-only social norms.

I’m glad that HN, by contrast, stands out as having more free range thinkers who tell it like it is.

I sell random generators for Dungeons & Dragons games.

To be fair - I did spend full time on this when it launched but it’s been a side project for the last 6 months.

The sales fluctuate a ton but usually above $500 a month, almost pure profit and almost 0 hours work.

I have a plan to increase revenue this year by going all in on SEO
I like this for several reasons, mostly because I like people trying to be somewhat concrete and quantitative about ideas that have a lot of saliency but tend to be thrown around only conceptually. The scale also makes some sense to be based on experience.

I'm not sure the ratings of all the examples are quite right; some of them I think might be over or underhyped more than the author proposes. This isn't too big of a deal to me though, as it seems more like misapplication of the scale rather than the scale itself.

The other thing I might suggest is that I'm not sure the 3-4-5 levels are all that distinct, especially 4 and 5.

Most importantly along these lines, my experience is that the "othering" level can happen well within the realm of 3 and 4. so although I agree that the "othering" phenomenon occurs, I don't see it as distinct from 3 and 4, it's just that the magnitude of it increases as you go up in hype. "Othering" seems like another component dimension, along with present vs future focus and empirical basis for claims.

So something like this with levels 3-5 compressed, or maybe just 4-5, makes a lot of sense to me, like it's something you could maybe actually apply in some kind of scientific study.
Nintendo partnered with Ricoh to put a Z80 in the NES, like Coleco and Sega, but Ricoh didn’t have the license to produce Z80s and didn’t think they would be able to reverse engineer it quickly enough. But they did have a reverse-engineered 6502 clone with the patented bits removed, and US copyright law didn’t cover IC lithography yet, and would they be interested in that instead?
There are compiler optimizations that infer/invent types at compile time.

> it’s very likely large parts of the standard library will get rewritten with them soon

It's not. The Go 1 backwards compatibility promise means existing interfaces won't change. Take the Math package for instance: I'm not aware of any planned breaking changes -- if you are, please share. If they were to add support for non-int64 operations, they would likely be separate functions or a new package. This, without sweeping code changes, nothing changes.
Mostly because you can run experiments on simulation to see "how much does it change if I do..."

The difference between a 5cm thick and a 3cm thick was rather surprising to me that it changed it that much for what a 250°F cooking does for some duration.

It also provides a "cooking for 70 minutes says it should be X in simulation while the oven is providing Y" that something is off between the simulation and (unmeasured) reality and one of the assumptions of either the simulation or reality is off.
It should be possible, but it would take more invasive netcode changes to be able to handle webRTC. Emscripten does not do similar translation of socket calls to webRTC.
Yes. In an office, you can read someone’s body language to tell if they are “in the zone”. Not so with remote work.
> No, we evolved to consume prepared food, including meat.

You're not wrong, but IMHO it should be noted that humans don't need a lot of meat to meet their dietary needs. There has probably been excess cultural focusing on it in recent decades.

The necessary daily portions one needs—unless doing body building—isn't a lot to get the required protein and amino acids.
C++ certainly has flaws - but it also has intentional design choices, which are important for achieving its goals. Also, as others have mentioned - much has improved since 2009.

To make this concrete, Let's go over the "C++ defects" summary appearing at the link, before the individual "frequently-questioned answers".

> changing the private members of a class requires recompilation of the code using the class. When the class is used to instantiate member objects of other classes, the rule is of course applied recursively.

This is mandated by two of C++' language design goals:

1. Performance of compiled C++ code: This recompilation is necessary for exploiting optimization opportunities involved the altered private members. In fact, these days, compilers goes beyond even that situation: _linking_ code may trigger partial re-compilation without any changes to the source.

2. Zero-overhead abstractions: Having a private member should not in itself cost you in terms of performance.

However, we can make the class implementation opaque (e.g. using the PIMPL idiom: https://stackoverflow.com/tags/pimpl-idiom/info ) if we want/need to.

> Outstandingly complicated grammar

C++ is guilty as charged here! It even has a semi-idiom named the "most vexing parse": https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Most_vexing_parse

But there is an excuse, which is: Backwards compatibility. First, with C and C's syntax; then, with earlier versions of the language. Fixing the complicated syntax would break all existing C++ versions. So, they don't do it.

> No way to locate definitions

The fix for this is now part of the language: Modules. Unfortunately it will take time before these are widely-enough adopted.

> No run time encapsulation... C and C++ are not designed to run in managed environments

This is again necessitated by the performance requirements. Run-time encapsulation would mean slower code, sometimes much slower.

Also, such encapsulation would mean there would be room for another C++-like language, below C++, without this encapsulation... and a goal of C++ is not to leave such room.

Luckily, in recent years we have undefined behavior sanitizers in compilers, which catch a lot of these cases.

One should also remember that languages with managed runtime environments often have exceptions to the rule, i.e. unsafe/unmanaged sections (unsafe in Rust, JNI in Java).

> No binary implementation rules

Sorry to have to harp on this, but platform-specific ABI is another necessity of performance. Still, C++ has a long way to improve in this respect, e.g. https://stackoverflow.com/q/58339165/1593077

Recently, stack traces have been introduced into the language, and in C++23 they might be available by default when throwing exceptions; see: https://wg21.link/p2370r2

(I may continue in another post or extend this one.)
To be clear, I don't completely discount it, but I think there are clear and large non-monetary influences that dominate.
By adding a catalog entry for each of your datasets with a filepath argument, it will save them to that place. All their datasets use fsspec under the hood so this path can be an s3 bucket or a local path and it all just works.
> later hybrids moved towards being a BEV with a smaller battery that gets topped up by a generator

Aren't these cars usually sold as BEV with a range extender instead of hybrids?
If it makes you feel better, these PMs are ruining development too: the developers can absolutely see that issue you referenced and were probably telling the PM they can knock it out in a few minutes or even started working on it already. PM will step in and say no, you do what's on the backlog. Developers lose all agency and start quitting. Product further deteriorates.

As a dev, the best kind of work is when you're connecting with your users and solving a real pain for them. Being robbed of these opportunities is how you get burnt out.

Curious how many students and faculty at your university are served by that $2m/year?

I don’t disagree with you, but if I were the CTO of a 10000+ seat organization, and a Microsoft/Google/etc told me they could provide email, storage, sharing/collaboration, office apps, security etc for a few bucks per user / month… that’s a pretty compelling deal.

Yes, and that's why we should be taxing the hell out of these companies. It's not just about raising revenue. It's about allowing other companies to compete with them.
To an extent yes, but consider the context: front end scripting

The javascript threading model is that there is a single thread executing so within a given bit of code you can be reasonably sure things are safe. The hyperscript runtime only allows one instance of a given event handler to execute at a time (unless otherwise specified) so the primary source of concurrency issues (the same code executing concurrently) is typically not an issue. By structuring your code such that it is on the same element (perhaps triggered by events elsewhere) you can effectively synchronize code in an intuitive manner.

I certainly wouldn't recommend the language for the back end though!
So… get married because the government has made it inconvenient not to? Aside from the fact that this is factually wrong (see other replies to your comment) this is also an awful reason to marry someone.
Simply not true. WP core is very secure.
Hugo, at least, has built-in syntax highlighting (both block and inline) and at a glance it looks like Jekyll does, too.

Netlify CMS has zero-effort image posting (saves to your repo's static folder). I'll grant that it doesn't do automatic downsizing, though Netlify as a CDN does.
I admit that I did over-generalise with those two statements. There's different tradeoffs one needs to do in any language regarding performance/maintenance/effort.

But for C++ there is little effort to bridge those gaps, or at least it feels that way. Maybe that's unfair of me, because C++ is very keen on backwards compatibility, though; I disagree with how religious they are about that goal, too.

Rust on the other hand strives to make idiomatic and easy-to-maintain/write/read code perform well. There are obviously high-level decision that play a role in performance, but I'm talking more about "vocabulary features" of the language/ecosystem, not the highlevel decision of "Do I use a List, a Map, or a Vector for this?"

Sure, there's ugly/unsafe and hard-to-understand parts in Rust libraries (and stdlib) too, but those warts don't leak into the "consumer" code (at least not as much). Also there's consistent effort to add DX polish to tooling, that's not such a "cultural thing" in the C++ ecosystem

The link to "Free Drive" is very intriguing.

A bicycle chain is very efficient [0].

Most generators, even in low power applications are about 96% efficient. So are motors. Roundtrip efficiencies of batteries are in the order of 80 - 90 % [1]

Combined efficiency of a motor-generator-battery system at best is 82%. Its a significant reduction in efficiency of the system.

This configuration has the convenience of constant pedal resistance, at the cost of increased weight, complexity and cost.

The future of e-Bikes, is, in my view, ditch the mechanical system, install fast recharging batteries (or have user swappable modules) and have a design that allows you to walk the bike in case the battery dies.

Toshiba manufactures SCiB cells, that they claim, have very fast recharging times and long lives. Perfect for eBikes. [2]

Maybe a better word is that it comes with an opinionated template? The core parts of Kedro can all be used individually as you wish. Only want a DAG, you can use just the pipeline, Want a catalog setup so you can store intermediate steps, use the Catalog. You can even make kedro project using all the features in a single file with surprisingly little boilerplate.
If they had the full catalogue of all movies and series ever made then it'd easily be much easier to actually make more relevant recommendations, but their catalogue is actually shrinking as they have less old content they've been able to renew since those content owners have been starting their own streaming services.

I'd count all of those in the "easy for developers" category, as long as you're willing to read documentation. It's 1-2 lines of config for any one of those, and the config in question is at the very front of the doc pages.

Flourides might work, because they set HF free at a low rate. I always wanted to try SiO2 etching with ArmourEtch (glass etching paste, i.e. flourides) but got sidetracked. There might be other problems with that specific paste, for example I don't know if it contains abrasives, but if you have access to a chemical lab then flourides should be easy to obtain.

AFAIK the chip industry uses flourides too (buffered oxide etch) because unbuffered HF has a too unpredictable etch rate.
"The magazine had a little travel article, and it was written in English on one page and Thai on the other."

Interesting Sunday study but language is supposed to be spoken. Arab and Hebrew skip vowels in written texts so they seem to be more efficient. But filling in these vowels requires cognitive extra work. That's why both languages offer extra notation for people who aren't that experienced with the written form. Does it make a difference when speaking a language?
Not sure how AR, AI/ML or even No Mans Sky belong to the same list as NFTs. No Mans Sky has delivered on many things over time and chances are you used AI for something today even if you aren't aware of it. Maybe you mean AGI and how near in the future some promised it to be. AR is too early to even judge, with only Microsoft investing into it out of the reputable companies AFAIK.
"No Man's Sky" is a fascinating example. I was really worried that was going to be a repeat of Spore.
Some things only make sense as a unified system, like, there can't easily be as many train lines and stations as there are potential competitors, because the value of the good is greatly increased if all the stations and lines link up together and aren't redundant.

Profit has to come from somewhere. In some cases, it can come from neglecting to maintain the infrastructure that the investors (usually the taxpayers) paid for to put you in business. Once the system collapses under the neglect, everyone is held hostage because the system is vital and then taxpayers are forced again at gunpoint to bail out the system. In the mean time, the profits of the mismanagement have been taken and are effectively unrecoverable.

The "politics" that comes in here is when people refuse to be robbed in this way and, instead, insist in a return on their investment (in the form of a functioning public utility). This is a consequence of democracy (fortunate or unfortunate, depending on your perspective).

There's no reason why Blockchains can't also incorporate their own trust model to facilitate lending that isn't fully collateralized. There are already projects working towards this. Pseudonymous p2p lending isn't some impossible thing.

The current frothy state of crypto, unsustainable as it may be, is evidence that people are willing to trust crypto projects enough to give them money if there's a chance of getting some amount of more money. Much of this looks like equity financing. Debt financing isn't inherently off limits though it just is harder.
What was the deal with this? Was it that the internal management team just mis-managed the product they had?
I feel ya. Before using kedro I was using a version of the cookiecutter for data science template that I modified to have something kind of like their data catalog. Before that it was so wild west, every project was its own unique thing.

Each of the below "traditional" industries provide a net benefit to humanity, some are more stodgy than others, but all will adopt new technologies to improve over time, including making moves towards greater sustainability:

--Energy - solar, wind, natural gas
--Public utilities - water, electricity, gas
--Food and beverage
--All kinds of manufacturing

There could be various opportunities at companies from the above to create a small impact at relatively low stress for a place that does something useful.

Flashcards are used in spaced repetition systems (typically), but the difference is the "algorithm". There is a deliberate delay between reviews in spaced repetition that you may or may not stumble upon accidentally with flashcards. At a rough approximation, you want to double (more or less) the time between reviewing cards if you know them before seeing them again. Most people studying flashcards won't do that on accident, at best they'll move the easy cards to another pile and review them at some point in the future, but it may be either too soon or too late.

In the too soon case, it's probably fine. Not ideal, but fine. They'll have more "this is still easy" cards than if they waited a bit longer. In the too late case, though, they'll have forgotten more material and have to restart cards more often. In a semester long course the too soon case is preferable (more studying than necessary to commit things to memory, but more things in memory), the too late case will mean more cramming at the end.

The Stockholm metro is run by MTR, but they don't own it.

They're only staffing the trains and platforms, not to different from e.g. a police station paying a sub-contractor to sweep their floors and manage the reception desk. The police station is still mostly a government run thing.

For example, MTR doesn't invest any money in new lines/tunnels, or buy/maintain the trains.

I don't think it's fair to compare it to this Korean line, it's not apples to apples.
