Hi! Thanks for your feedback!

1. We sell both hardware and software, although our software works with almost any computer that runs Linux - it doesn't require our hardware and can run on anything that can run Kubernetes. Obviously, this is somewhat "the deep end" for many users, so our PiBox comes plug-n-play ready.

2. Cluster is a Kubernetes term, which we really should stop using, although we have a core value of educating instead of shielding our users - so we've tried to keep the "upstream" terminology as much as we can. It simply means "one or more Linux servers". Most of our customers simply run one machine as their "cluster", but a small handful have dozens of machines in the same group.

3. We're trying to bundle everything that's needed to host apps and websites at home. For most users, home internet connections aren't very good for this - the IP address changes often, and sometimes ISPs do not even allow port 80 or 443 to be exposed to the internet - we solve this by proxying traffic directly to your cluster, bypassing firewalls and avoiding the need for port-forwarding, router configuration, etc. This means you can plug in a PiBox, install, say, PhotoStructure, and access `photos.home.erulabs.k8g8.com` (for example), without needing to know anything at all about networking or firewalls or DNS. We also offer backups, as another example of trying to make home-hosting "complete".

4. Ack! I broke this last night! Thank you for pointing that out, fixed now!

5. You can click "home" in the footer, but yes, some polish there would be nice... One day we'll hire a proper designer ;)

Thank you for the feedback, very much appreciated.
Children, universally as far as I can tell, want to be with other children.

As we mature we want other things, more time alone, and with abusive schools we might recoil at being forced to periodically be with our tormentors.

Forcing 16 year olds to socialize is stupid though.
It was bound to happen. Stocks may continue to rise, but I believe there to be more risk now.

This will probably help with recruitment and retention.
Cool! For others interested, the k8s integration discussion starts around 17m00.
Well of course battery age, but the GPs were talking about the latest watch, so I assumed it was more about battery life from the start.

From what I understand, impact of radio on battery life is very real but often invisible / not thought about. Cellular really can chew through battery when the base stations are far away.
I wasn't familiar with that use of the word hidden. I thought you meant physically in hiding, because Trudeau is physically hiding.
Well, it did post 4.8B revenue in Q3, so obviously that also funds a good chunk of operations.
As the article notes, the Foucault pendulum is slightly more work to prove. Nothing beyond high school math, but it's less obvious than "once you point this gyroscope at any star, it keeps pointing at that star no matter how that star moves, how could that be if the stars are moving but not the earth?"
> But in attempting to draw an equivalence between the physical flow of liquids and the emotional “flow” of human beings, Losada had simply lifted the numbers that Lorenz used in 1963 to explain his method in the abstract, numbers used merely for illustrative purposes. Losada’s results, along with the pretty butterfly graphs Brown had been shown in class, were essentially meaningless.

It was a bit crazy in the late 1990s. Chaos theory had been popularized, and the social sciences copied fashionable buzzwords and buzzconcepts from chaos theory, and used them totally out of context. Maybe it was crazy in the 1920s, too? Einstein's theory of relativity had become popular, and sciences that had nothing to do with gravitation, copied the "everything is relative" slogan.
I completely agree.

I think in the case of Lightform, their core projection mapping algorithm is already public and has open source implementations. It's called "structured light". A quick search turned up this open source implementation: https://github.com/jhdewitt/sltk
You aren't the only person making this mistake but don't assume Roman slavery was like American chattel slavery. Roman slavery was still slavery and still had abuses but it was not "slavery till death, for all your generations". Nor were slaves mere physical labor. Slaves often ran businesses, engaged in basically white collar work, and often times were skilled craftsmen who exceeded their masters skill.
You need to unsubscribe from things you have no intention of ever reading and start filtering crap you don't want straight to the trash.

Gmail has a pretty good interface to creating automatic filters to tag,move,or delete crap built in or if you prefer imapfilter lets you basically write a lua program to filter your email.
If you wanted to keep it apolitical, why are you dragging a completely separate issue related to a certain, unnamed, but very well know person into the thread?
My 3 year old Series 4 dies before 8pm, if it's fully charged at 7am, and with absolutely no use except standby. Some are still using Series 0s (with light use), but Apple Watches are disposable electronics by any reasonable definition, especially with battery replacements that cost as much as a new one.
But the key difference is that you said "fund NASA", rather than "defund NASA". Fund definitely implies there is not currently enough money, or that a new program is being advocated for.

I would likewise think that anyone who wanted to "defund NASA" had the intention of getting rid of the agency, rather than a more nuanced position of "we should stop funding SLS so that we can reallocate the money on high school STEM outreach and climate satellites."

- Linen sheets - nice and cool in the summer, cozy in the winter, only get softer with each wash and I prefer the texture over cotton or silk.

- Bidet, seriously no idea how I lived without this for so long.

- Standing desk, ranges in price, standing obviously has its benefits but also just being adjustable so that your arms are in the correct spot while sitting is huge.

- A nice (big) enameled dutch oven, le creuset and staub are both good choices - more versatile than a cast iron pan, less maintenance, will last forever.

- Mobility, stretching and self massage tools: yoga mat + foam roller + lacrosse balls + theracane + resistance bands + some sort of routine (joe defranco and kelly starrett come to mind), spend the extra cash on a deep tissue massage and some yoga classes
There are apologists who will insist you can do real work on an iPad—if you get the iPad Pro, and the keyboard case.

Which ends up being about as expensive and about the same size as a MacBook Air. And for any work that requires any sort of interface density, or complete access to the file system, or fast I/O, or…I’d way rather have a Mac.
> When I was in the Python interpreter and entered “exit”, which doesn’t work because exit is not a keyword, I got a message that told me how to actually exit.

This happened to me too once, and I was also delighted. It simultaneously teaches you how to supply an EOF to anything that's reading your input off the command line.

But I've seen people scream about how obnoxious it is that the python shell knows what you want to do, and then lectures you about how to do it properly instead of just doing it for you. I don't understand those people.
Maybe I'm being incredibly naive, but it seems like this would be trivial. Can you just start with the output hash and then essentially run the algorithms backwards? Obviously the resulting "input" would be random-ish garbage, but it seems like if all you care about is the output, you can pretty much just "pick" any data for the last step that produces the output. Then do likewise for the step prior, and so on.
Oh god yes. I too quit a PhD program after six years and massive student loan debt. I'd have so much more wealth right now if I'd left with a master's (1.5 years!) that it's not the slightest bit funny.
Ask HN: Can we use the mobile apps permissions model on the web?
Mobile apps have to ask for most resources they use so that phones are somewhat secure and private and this model works for some definitions of "work". At the same time, Firefox and Safari don't implement various web api-s with the argument that they could be used for user fingerprinting despite the fact that some of them might be useful for many users. So, what stops them from implementing a permissions framework like the mobile apps? Something like that is already implemented for camera and microphone. What are the potential pitfalls for extending it to others? People are already familiar with the mobile apps permissions so it is not unreasonable to expect that they can recognize when a web app asks for too much access.

Of course, there will be the hostage strategy where some websites won't provide access to their content unless they are given full access to your entire search history, online purchases, and genetic records, but the web is big enough to provide us with options.
This blog just seems like entry-level contrarian ramblings. Hardly HN-worthy IMO
That doesn't mean that $4 was what it should be, though. I hope GME used the ridiculously high stock price to issue a bunch of new shares, so they have plenty of money to invest in whatever they want.
This is a mistake.

They need to pivot to AR/VR
But don't ratings matter most to advertisers? Who's going to run ads on a station that nobody watches?
“Stars have their own proper motions" is not an easy fact to prove. . .”

No, proper motions are well known, https://www.britannica.com/science/proper-motion#:~:text=pro....

So we must further assume that a star attached to a crystal sphere will have a separate motion which also need to be explained.

Not a surprise that political climate is getting more liberal since mainstream media is largely run and controlled by liberal think tanks and lobbyists

Erroneous! Erroneous on both counts!

The "liberal" party voted for the most centrist choice in their primary, and America picked him as their president. Americans today see Biden as more moderate than Obama, not more liberal [0]. I don't see how one can make the case America is getting more liberal when even the liberal party isn't.

The media is also absolutely not largely run and controlled by liberal think tanks and lobbyists. Nationally, Fox News dominates the ratings and had the top 3 rated cable news shows last year [1]. That doesn't even touch on SBG's well documented reach in key markets or conservative talk radio (which you can also find all over the top of the ratings lists [4]).

As such, they're able to promote and espouse liberal ideology and wokism into the minds of the majority.

It's hard to take such a claim at face value. On the one hand, conservatives like to play the victim against an undefined boogeyman, like we see here. On the other, conservatives are the ones wielding actual political power to enforce ideology through censoring educators and banning books [2], [3].

I see this as the answer for a lot of folks. But having run an office and half a company in the past... I've found that the benefits of a reduced hour work week are offset by the pressures/stresses of owning a business.

The only real saving grace of a 9-5 is that after 5, except on rare circumstances, my time is my time. I'm able to relatively stress free. If I'm running the show there is almost always something else that can be done. So picking reading by a river with some tea will almost always take a backseat to responding to whatever customer email that just came in.
I think there's space for an open source library that can help with what you described by using just python and YAML. We originally created https://github.com/typhoon-data-org/typhoon-orchestrator to orchestrate ETL workflows, which would be a superset of the use cases you described. Our next goal is to allow deployment to AWS lambda which can be a good compromise between getting locked in with SAAS and hosting your own infrastructure.

Also check out Zappa's scheduled tasks that have a similar goal and inspired our library. We used it initially as a backbone and ran into a series of issues that forced us to write our own version of it, but depending on your goals it could be enough.

Have you read “In the first circle”? Great read, and they made a mini series out of it that I believe Solzhenitsyn himself narrates.
I think you are missing the point.. The gender equality was portrayed by the company and therefore picked up by the parents. Nothing to do with what little boys thought of girls. Today you have marketing pre-disposing parents to thinking girls should follow X interests and boys Y. This is big part of why we have lack of females in STEM since for example "girls" Legos shows they should just worry about beauty salons and not rocket ships.
Over the last two years, the federal government has added over 2 trillion dollars directly into consumers' hands. Aggregate prices has gone up by... slightly less than 2 trillion dollars.

It's not rocket science - there is more money in the economy but the same amount (and often less) things.

It's relatively simple to hit the brakes on inflation by taking money out of the economy (either increasing interest rates, or increasing taxation). But it's easy to understand why there is little political capital to do so.

Regardless,because this money came as a large one-time lump, the inflation is probably "transitory" - which is a fancy way of saying that once prices catch up to the money supply, there is no reason to believe it will continue.

I think american governments over stretches it.

but yeah I do think it's ironic and sad that the ultra conservative school boards and q people who push that junk simultaneously hate CCP for doing the same thing.

Though the aforementioned school board idiots probably don't even understand (or if they do, gross) that they are in fact perpetrating the same 'racism' they are standing up against.
A Gmail account and my pixel3a are my last Google products. When the pixel does I am unlikely to replace it with another, and will then start looking into just how many accounts I need to shift the backup email away from Gmail.
Podcast: K3s and how it removes the cognitive overload of standing up K8s
I sometimes wonder how much the fact that I'd stop trying to make more money at like $25m savings—and maybe sooner—is a factor in my not having that much money in the first place. Like I'm not saying that's all or even most of the reason, but I do wonder if the running-up-the-score attitude is itself valuable for making any decent amount of money in the first place.
Author here: this is a very simple tool I built for myself... I thought it may be worth sharing so I cleaned it up, added some styles and here you go. Hopefully this is useful to someone else.
Gmail's free quota is more being quickly depleted when Google started counting space used by 'high quality' (limited to 2000x2000px) photos. Previously that was free, but not any longer.
You can change your number
Not sure I agree on this. Those free versions existed before they had a business/paid offering.

Google could at a future date make these a paid offering to boost earnings. There is no guarantee googles consumer services remain free long term

Here's the thing, though: I think most of the time it is market freakout. Even if something did change about the company, quite often the market will freak out about it in one direction or another. I really think Warren Buffett is one of the few investors who really pays attention to the actual value of companies. Most investors just sail on hype.
How is your team organized? Is it US only or are there international/remote roles?
I don't think disbelieving Trudeau necessarily means you're a conspiracy theorist. If this is the only instance where you doubt someone's COVID status does that make you a full blown conspiracy theorist or just a skeptic?
> I can't imagine anything interesting happening to the watch that doesn't include a big increase to battery life. I don't want any other feature except a battery that can make it a full day.

I have to ask: What are you doing with your Apple Watch that drains the battery so fast?

I've never been able to drain my Watch battery anywhere near that fast, even with the always-on screen still enabled.

Matched contributions to 401k are generally not considered part of total comp because there is no implication that the match can be converted into cash immediately, though this is often the case. Similarly, HSA contributions by the employer usually are not counted as total comp even though it is a form of cash benefit.

The rubric for all of these complicated and indirect forms of compensation is "benefits". These benefits are significantly limited in terms of practical cash value and rules around their use by regulation, whereas there is no bound on TC.
There was an interesting discussion on HN last week that brought up the fact that mathematics has its own crises, namely a communication crises. It was brought up that the proofs can be so dense that errors will be published and go unchecked for a long time. The interesting part is that everything that's needed for "replication" is literally within the paper and the errors still fall through the cracks.

There is still an awful lot of engineering that is model-based without strong deductive proofs. (Mechanical failure theory comes to mind). But the actual origin of "profession" comes from professing an oath to the public good. Meaning the traditional professions (law, medicine, engineering) aren't necessarily aimed at creating new knowledge, but applying knowledge to the betterment (or profit) of society. Sometimes that butts up against problems without known solutions that requires adding knowledge to the field, but that's not really the primary goal, unlike something like mathematics.
I'm curious too, as there were some early LessWrong folks working there, IIRC. I used to walk by their office in Mountain View.

The exact specifics of this would be far more valuable than a more general blog post about the importance of talking to customers before building a product - there are far too many variables involved there.

3 questions:

1. Would you like to blog about the exact specifics of this?

2. When would you be able to do that? I am interested in reading it ASAP even if it's a draft

3. Are there other risks to a startup besides:

- Market

Well I think for ubi to accomplish its goals you'd have to index it to the federal poverty line. I used to be on disability and let me tell you, the FPL would have been a drastic improvement. People really don't understand how little someone on disability makes. It was not enough for me to live a remotely dignified life even in a very low cost of living area.
I agree but for lots of people who get an android phone it's not an obvious difference.
I think the difference is that I can’t copy paste the conversation about JavaScript from CNN to HN. I could do that for mainstream political topics.
Seconded. Blindly implying that economists of all groups are blatantly appropriating math from other fields without understanding it seems a step too far to me. I'm sure it happens, but I've worked in conjunction with people writing computer models to study certain economic subsystems and virtually everybody involved had a serious academic background in mathematics.
How does this sit with other innovations such as all to all trading in OTC markets that are designed to match many buyer/sellers at, for example, a mutually beneficial mid price?
Or that Omicron is mild enough that it would not have caused the disease to unboosted or completely unvaccinated subjects... had they included those groups in the study.

From the original paper:

> since we sought to compare two different mRNA boosts, we did not have an unboosted group to determine whether the boost enhanced protection.

How are they able to get away with deliberately bad study designs?
maybe that's why they failed, they should have kept it closed and private with tight controls, patents, etc... in order to really profit.

couldn't they even get in trouble with their investors for having failed to achieve profitability with this misguided "open" strategy?

>I disagree since that would give people decision making capabilities who are the least qualified to do so.

It's unclear why investing in the belief something is overvalued demands a different or larger set of decision making capabilities than the belief is it undervalued.
The meat of this seems to be in confirming that if you're not hospitalized the long-term effects are minimal. Not _zero_, but very small.

The abstract states that "These risks and burdens were evident even among individuals who were not hospitalized during the acute phase of the infection", but I'd urge attention to the data as this implies only that there is a detectable change, it's not a judgement on the size of the risk.

The worst cases are in intubated patients that basically lost proper oxygen flow for extended periods of time.
I surely can't be the only one who isn't price sensitive at all. 3x market rate? If that means it gets done well, happily.

Some slaves were not mere physical labour. However, many famers and miners were still enslaved people, worked in far more brutal conditions without the hope of manumission.
I think that's really only true if you do it separately after receiving a bachelor degree (adds 1-2 years). If done from the start, they have separate courses for educators that satisfy both the subject and teaching requirements/strategies for that material. Sort of like how you can take the business version or math version of stats - they cover similar material but from different angles (both have a math prefix but any math major will tell you the business one is less rigorous).
Hmm I can't find the source but I thought Google targets the 85th percentile not 75 or 95.

But then again the market data that Google uses isn't public (and certainly isn't levels.fyi) so there could be discrepancies.
