Runway | Remote in USA and Canada | https://www.runway.com Runway replaces the operating model that almost every growing business has in spreadsheet form and transforms it into a visual model of how every part of your business is connected. This gives everyone from the CEO to the individual contributor a shared understanding of how the business works, where you’re going, and why. With this new context, your team can engage in higher-level conversations about what’s right for the company. Together, you can easily explore which levers to pull and find out, in real-time, if doing so will help you meet your goals.

Runway does all of this in a way that makes you want to dig into the data — not run away from it — through a fundamental rethinking of the core primitives of the spreadsheet. Because when you have the information you need, your team can ask better questions and make the best decisions possible.

We’ve put together an exceptional team of ex-Stripe, Coinbase, Facebook, and Twitter engineers, many of whom are experienced founders. We are backed by folks like a16z and Garry Tan from Initialized, Dylan Field from Figma, Akshay Kothari from Notion, Naval Ravikant and Elad Gil. If you’d like to learn more about our team, our culture, and what’s it like to work at Runway, please check out our Working at Runway profile along with our Values here: https://runwayhq.notion.site/Working-at-Runway-c7a9a7c8ef914...

Awesome writeup. Especially the technical stack part.

I think there's so much emphasis on Courses, crypto, NFT's drop shipping, etc, that many people forget its businesses like this that are stable and last a super long time for small creators.

One point that stood out is that the author kept saying "it's a lot of work". And that's fine. Somehow we have been trained by society to want a lot without working a lot -- perhaps just refined human nature in the west.

There's something to be said for curating information with an opinion into a niche that people actually want. Refreshing and congratulations.

Yes, they could theoretically file a GDPR complaint. It is not certain that the courts would judge it a violation, but it’s quite likely, since their data is resting in servers owned (subsidiary-to) a US business.
4 years is not long term, try again.

Other drugs don't have a better safety profile if they were tested for so long. If anything, it proves that is highly toxic for your body (similarly to many chemio treatments)
Myself working as a product manager, I'm always happy to improve my product building skills as well. I'll be glad to help.
It was my impression that many distros alias mariadb as mysql because it's the capital-f Free version so when you install the default distro mysql you are actually installing mariadb.

Edit: in fact I think that if you search "default" on this page these are all the distros that do this. https://mariadb.com/kb/en/distributions-which-include-mariad...
Hi bloqs, my job title is "Technical Project Manager". The core function of the TPM team is the decomposition of project requirements documents into build/test work orders in Jira, but we do a lot of other stuff, including manually handling technical processes that should have already been automated but aren't (server migrations, etc.) and assist in troubleshooting and writing quality documentation.

There are a lot of issues with the way the role is set up, and in some cases I think it would be more appropriate to employ full-time programmers to do some of what we're doing, but a lot of the time we cover a lot of ground between a non-technical client and a highly technical programmer without wasting dev time hunting through requirements, contracts, or bug problems. (We're hiring...)
I'm working on www.ghostly.kitchen; An operations forecasting platform which predicts sales & production demand then generates recommended solutions for foodservice operators.

The approach is to depart from client-side ERPs UX & simplify the (data) analysis process. The goal is to reduce decision fatigue / information overload in the operator's day-to-day ops.

I launched two foodservice companies in the past and have experienced this issue firsthand. It takes up substantial resources to maximize efficiency.

Working on the MVP & signed two pilots in SF. Target markets are cloud kitchens, catering/causal foodservice companies. My background is in sales/bizdev/ops, happy to discuss my background in detail.

If you're an experienced developer looking for a cofounder position in the saas/sustainability/ML space - please reach out to mo at ghostly dot kitchen
Otherwise, still reach out. I'm excited to share this project
Haha exactly, actually talked to one of the cofounders before writing any code to figure out what happened to them. TLDR: when the DOJ cracked down on offshore sports books it cut off their revenue.
The definition of doxxing includes searching public databases for public data.

Many schools have public timetables but that doesn't give you any right to make a "What lesson does little Elon have now" twitter bot.

I would find this type of differentiation useful as well. “Plain” sites are generally faster to skim through for what I’m looking for, (no gauntlet of spinning loading wheels and dialogs or JS gumming up functions like Find in Page) so it would be nice to be able to prioritize those in search results.

One way to do this would be for the crawler to compare the content of JS-enabled and JS-disabled states and if they differ dramatically, the web destination gets tossed in the “web app” bucket.
I'm interested in collaborating on video games, maybe especially card games. I built a game similar to Hearthstone (deckzap.com) where the players make the cards, but it doesn’t feel fun. I think I would work better in the game space with a collaborator.

I used to make a hiking app for a living, but now I’m just tinkering with side projects and writing.
How often are you actually looking for information on YouTube? This is the first time I’ve ever heard anyone say removing the up to down ratio was a good thing.

I installed addons so I could see the ratio before I even clicked on the video. It’s saved me so much time. (Unfortunately it only worked on YouTube so when I searched on Google I still stumbled onto bad videos and wasted a lot of time)
This is related to the goals I have for https://github.com/conartist6/macrome, except that my focus is on restoring forking potential for frontend development.

I expect if forks become more abundant that the need for trust will be a major driver of merges.
Same here. Only time I search for mariadb is when it's mariadb specific configuration.
What AWS claims is not important: the fact that US intelligence agencies are legally required to have access to data worldwide of US companies clashes with EU requirements: it is simply not allowed to expose data on natural EU persons that way.

I'm thinking it'd be an app running on android/ios atm. Kids typically seem to gravitate to an 'app' and something running in a browser could lead to unexpected consequences if a parent wants to protect their kids from the greater web. I'd like for it to run in a browser if needed but it'd be easier for a kid to manage as an app. Look at youtube kids app as an example.

As for art I love watercolor, gouache, ink and brush. I trained professionally to be an animator so I love cartoons.
I do plain old boring FE/BE in JS, looking for stuff to do for boring evenings after work.

Looking to contribute to some nice project ideas, browsing GitHub projects usually gets me nowhere.

Dinosaur killer sized impact vs your volcano. Which tsunami would be bigger? There's more variability in the impact as the volcano is locked to its location, so fun thought exercise for the disaster pr0n types.
Ultimately Wall Street gets paid more for SPACs than IPOs. Both sponsors and their advisors get more fees and upside. There’s a reason so many SPAC’s happened during 2020 and 2021 and it wasn’t because companies thought SPAC’s were superior to IPO’s. Banks made more money.
This is succinctly captured by a phrase from the video game industry: "Show locked doors before you show a key"
It's pretty darn unlikely in our lifetimes. But you'll know about it yourself without anyone needing to tell you before it happens. The energy available to the initial flare and/or associated coronal mass ejection is roughly proportional to the area of the sunspot group.

Before there was a "super" flare and/or CME you'd see the sunspot with your unaided eyes. Check out "The standard flare model in three dimensions. II. Upper limit on solar flare energy" and the figure 4 in particular for size to energy reference. https://arxiv.org/abs/1212.2086
I am surprised how low postgres ranks in those trends. I guess I have been in an echo chamber for too long, because my perception was that it was much more pervasive.
node js is a web software platform over a decade old that does not include a stable API for making a web request so there are a bunch of community libraries for making a web request, and which one is "best practice" has changed like four or five times through the years. this is a new api for making a web request. yayy progress.
These are very common for a lot of "Thought-leader" or influencer types. They are just social clubs/memberships. So a portion of the money goes to him, and the rest goes towards organizing these "special projects" (Socials/events) for the people who are paying to be members. They are a new sort of country club, for example.

Like most social clubs in the past, the price of membership acts to gatekeep against "casuals", and creates a sort of commitment ("I pay this much, so I might as well use it"). For the latter point, like gym memberships, the model probably relies on 100% of the people rarely if ever showing up or taking part. In that way the attendees are treated to an event or occasion that is worth more than the sum of the contribution of the attendants, in principle.
Where does he resolve the paradox?

He says you should claim the right to suppress the intolerant and that preaching intolerance is outside the law.

That’s a weird attitude, at its core the GDPR is simply about keeping track of data, and ensuring that it’s not used for anything the users didn’t consent to.

I’m having a hard time seeing how the rules could be any different. Remember that the GDPR is also result of companies looking at the cookie law and deciding “fuck it, let’s find a loop hole and not change anything”.
Yes, it's why anyone citing Gibraltar for anything is intellectually dishonest. 15,000 people cross the border every day for work and other reasons.

Re: your other point, no vaccine is 100% effective at "stopping" spread. Absolutely no vaccine is 100% effective. There is no qualitative difference between prevention and reduction. If it reduces spread, then by definition some nonzero number of potential infections were prevented.
Recruiting farms like Cyber Recruiters (yuck) will do everything in their power to waste your time

Or share your data.

I made a throwaway, but not obnoxious email on my domain just for recruiters a few years ago, so I could try tracking who I was talking to.

Via three consecutive third-party recruiters I started getting cold calls and e-mails from recruiters I’d never contacted, never met, or never before engaged with from agencies that weren’t the ones I spoke to or sent a CV to. Soon I started getting other completely irrelevant email. Then the robocalls came. I later found that email address among five different data leak sources.

Just so happened to be a different popular recruiting company that has “Cyber” in the name.
That's a lot less bad than I expected!
> and if you're concerned about performance, use PCIe passthrough for your graphics card.

Won't work with NVIDIA cards at all without a boatload of hacks (because they don't want consumer cards to be used in virtualized environments), and AMD cards are an utter pain in the ass to work with because AMD can't be bothered to get basic PCI stuff to work [1].

Also, you always run the risk of some anti-cheat solution detecting your virtualization environment and banning you permanently.

If you value your sanity, don't do gaming inside a VM.

I'm far more OK giving a windfall to the SPAC sponsor who sought out and helped a promising company to merge with and list, than a WS gatekeeper who is paid simply for being in-between a startup and an IPO.
No. I buy a new handful every couple months. It sucks. My latest batch is from some brand called Insignia and so far has lasted one month without issues, but I'll be surprised if they don't fail soon. Previously tried Apple and Anker, both failed in a small number of months.

I've considered wrapping the thing in heat-shrink tubing to give it some rigidity and protect the nano-scale-wires they're using in there, but haven't got any handy.

I'd love a phone with a real jack, but phones just aren't made for me anymore.

A recruiter got me my first job a decade ago when I was fresh out of college and my internship place didn't hire me and I was panicking to find something as I didn't have a backup plan. He helped me interview at multiple places until he found one for me (the pay sucked but it was a job). So yeah, they're annoying, but I do understand their place.

How'd they find out?
I mean, you also have to be careful to return pointers and not smart pointers and so on. It can be a bunch of work if you need to write a bunch of freestanding functions to wrap the c++ object methods.
> If 1000 users try to login as you, the results of our statistics show that one of them may be able to do it.

So each user effectively gets assigned one of ~1000 ids, which is not that different to a three digit decimal PIN, that they then can use as password?

It seems to use it as an authentication scheme a username and 2FA/MFA is _mandatory_. I guess one could then also say: a username is a very strong and efficient authentication method.
I'm pulling for "RickyDB"
As someone who has spent an unfortunate amount of time working on shipping label software for ecommerce companies, my advice is to stay the hell away from ZPL. It's the layout language equivalent of C -- too many low-level footguns. Just send 4x6 PDF's to your thermal printer and be done with it. There are so many more tools, of much better quality, available for composing PDF's than you'll ever find for ZPL or other vendor-specific layout languages.

Sure, if you know you're always going to be using a Zebra printer, and you control the whole pipe from software to the physical label, then you're going to have a lot more explicit control if you use ZPL over a PDF. But the second any of those presuppositions change, it's back to the drawing board. (Actually, even the Zebra assumption isn't sound, because they themselves are not always 100% reliable in following their own specifications. And the specifications... boy howdy.)

The old argument in favor of ZPL is that you can be much more precise with the instructions you're sending to your thermal, resulting in higher print quality, and therefore more reliable barcode scans and OCR. But the world doesn't stand still, and shipping carriers have been steadily improving their scanning capabilities over the last 20 years, even while thermal printer capabilities have remained largely stagnant. After all, USPS has to also optimize for people who are printing labels on shitty desktop inkets. The increase in barcode quality you'd get out of using ZPL is overkill.

TLDR: Save yourself a lot of heartache and just sling PDF's. Postscript/Ghostscript is so much easier to cajole into cooperation.
My question is what cool new stuff is there to build? It feels like all the low hanging fruit was picked between the 60's and the 90's (maybe into the 00's) and now software development is a black hole that just gobbles up any resources we throw into it and leads to enormous burnout.

However, I tend towards a pessimistic nature, so hopefully I'm wrong.

This isn't extortion. This is price adjusting to what the market will bear.

I mean, aren't all the surveillance capitalists about this sort of thing? Good for the goose, good for the gander I say.
I like to think of it as spamming the spammers! The marginal cost of extra words in a "select all -> copy -> paste" is pretty low so I think it makes a lot of sense to be very clear and address any objections they might have in advance.

I also have found through experimentation that posting one liners like "how much?" just results in the recruiter reverting to their own script of "objection handlers"

The size and clarity of the message really does say "this isn't a conversation", "no bullshit" and "let's not fuck around here"

This is my own experience though. I've been running with it and refining for about 6 months to a year. Maybe It could be better. :)
Writing up a more powerful approach to state management in complex front-end apps. Been using it for 25 years, and after a few years working with React/re-frame and the Flux derivatives, I see it can help.
The rulings this past week specifically contradict this. Subsidiaries of US corporations are subject to illegal-under-GDPR data collection requests by US authorities, just as much as any other US corporation, as the subsidiary has no legal protections under US law from GDPR-illegal requests by its parent.

The difference is that cxx is doing codegen to create a C ABI compatible bridge. So the same thing most people already do when they want to interact w/ C++ over FFI.

I believe that TFA is actually saying that the Swift compiler speaks C++ directly without doing any codegen and just handles everything at the compilation level. Same end result but a lot of subtle differences. Not having to do codegen is a big win, especially in Rust where compile times aren't terrific and binary sizes can already bloat up due to the statically linked nature.
I feel like they dropped the ball with respect to spec compliance. I have some speakers that allow anybody to pair with them, even if they don't have physical access to the device, and I occasionally have apartment neighbors connect to them and start playing music. That shouldn't be possible...but anybody can just say that their product is Bluetooth compatible and get away with it.

They should have a rigid spec and a publicly available test kit, and a certification process for spec compliance.
I have a card game app I’m working on, focused on the mtg community. I would be interested in collaborating.
15 years of pharmaceutical development should've told you that vaccine and drugs are different, but doesn't seems to be the case.

"Autoimmune disorder" probably have a very low correlation and if anything vaccine have saved the life of many, more than any other drug.
