> Display alert with sound: When AirTag automatically emits a sound to alert anyone nearby of its presence and is detected moving with your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch, we will also display an alert on your device that you can then take action on, like playing a sound or using Precision Finding, if available. This will help in cases where the AirTag may be in a location where it is hard to hear, or if the AirTag speaker has been tampered with.
6 months of startup work before you have graduated sounds impressive to me. Definitely mention it. Don't be afraid to say it didn't work out, but as others have said, don't bad mouth them. Your interviewers will read between the lines and they'll appreciate the fact that you showed discretion.
Here's the thing about taking a 944 up to 120mph... the sound changes. Everything under 110 seems normal, but you get to a point and the aero changes and you know you're in an envelope some German engineers conjured up 35 years ago. That's when I lift. freaks me out.
And that's the thing by definition it is literally impossible to be an exporter to country X without operating there. In the same way it is literally impossible to claim that telegram is not providing a service for people in Germany if people in Germany a literally using the service as provided by telegram. You want to have our cake and eat it too, the world simply doesn't work like that.
And the AirTag is another $30!
I'm building wooden benches for bus and light rail stops in my neighborhood.

Lots of riders are elderly and find themselves sitting on the curb, feet in the gutter, as they wait for transit. Studies suggest that perceived wait time increases by 30%+ when riders are forced to stand while they wait. There's no cheaper way to shave several minutes off of perceived trip time, for every trip.

That's true, but there is no fuel source out in space. Outside of Earth orbit, eg Lagrange points, you need fuel deliveries.

On Mars they can make methane with the Sabatier process.

So you have:

- LEO/MEO - vulnerable to asteroid impact ejecta

- GEO/moon/L-points - avoid ejecta, but need regular refueling. If Earth is toast, there goes resupply

- Mars - close enough to the sun for solar, able to conceivably bootstrap in a few centuries

Bandwidth doesn't help much with bitcoin mining, I have a few questions for your friend.

There's not some program you can "donate" bandwidth to and make money off of it. Closest thing would be to self-host media and stop paying for all the streaming services you probably have right now. That will save you money, at least.

I think a lot of people in other professions were also working hard, deserved a break and wanted to blow off steam, are you advocating for them to be allowed to ignore the law set down during pandemic too?

How much harder is it going to be to convince the public to follow rules/guidelines if we announce that certain groups can ignore parts of them?
HTTPS is not end-to-end encrypted (it kinda would be if we used P2P but we don't) so you can subpoena the server.
Interestingly, when I’m in the Bay Area, I find myself calling restaurants and picking up the food myself because it’s significantly faster than any delivery service.
Elon is wrong about FSD being easy and about his approach, and his timeline. If he can be wrong about those things with grace it’ll be fine. I don’t know if he can do that. His track record for admitting he was wrong hasn’t been great.
I generally feel the same, although I can say just as a pragmatic issue, the biggest problems I have ever faced in programming by far have been in dealing with poorly structured inheritance systems and object hierarchies in other peoples' libraries. Bugs are inevitable but problems with object hierarchies seem to screw up everything unnecessarily in a way that doesn't happen in less object-oriented functional and procedural languages. Sometimes it feels like this extra layer of ways to shoot yourself in the foot, and the feet of everyone around you.

Strong typing can be a blessing and a curse, and screwing up type signatures through poor foresight can be a problem regardless. But get into elaborate object systems and it can be a different level. When they're done well it's no problem, but when they're done poorly, it's maddening.
This dude is genuine and it's fucking great. Love it. Inspirational dude.
What you say makes sense, but it makes me wonder if there's a related concept where huge amounts of money are sitting on the sidelines that could start moving at any time. That seems kind of like inflation.

May crypto advocates are going about this the wrong way.

Instead of emphasizing that crypto should be protected by freedom of speech, they should acknowledge crypto is a dangerous munition. Therefore it’s protected by the Second Amendment.

The second amendment says the right to bear “arms” will not be abridged. Not firearms.

Shouldn’t that protect crypto?

I built a free and open platform that allows the users to create a share short content on learning. Interested users can discover and follow topics or subjects and each content is concrete with links to relevant related entries. I created the app in react native ( available in both play store and app store ) and the back-end in Java microservices. The creator portal is in ReactJS that allows people with expertise to create content and engage with users.

I'm building a programming language for UI designers. Kinda crazy since most of the industry is heavily leaning into low-code/no-code solutions for design. But my position is that you can have a coding language that feels familiar to designers but also allows them to express their decisions with much more clarity than what is currently provided by graphical editors.

The way import/export laws work, it's the onus of the importer to comply with the law. I don't understand why you expect a completely different set of rules to be reasonable just because the Internet is involved.

If restaurants are making zero or negative profit from delivery customers, they could simply stop serving them. They could reject the orders. Indoor dining is open now, and there is simply no reason for a restaurant to fulfill an order for a loss.

Few restaurants have their own delivery drivers, and for many, delivery services were the only way they could sell their food during lockdowns. Even at a loss, it made sense to have revenue. But that does not explain why restaurants continue to fulfill delivery orders now -- the only reason they still do it now is that they do make some money from it.

There's a reason most complex software uses OOP. Functional programming is nice, sometimes, but as projects grow it ends up using patterns that do essentially the same thing as OOP. A monad is basically an OOP object.

To see a language that is purely OOP but also forces you to be very explicit about accessing state, check out Pony language.

I have a web server. Runs on a home internet connection (fiber, around 200 mbps). I run a blog [0] and some other stuff on the site.

I set up everything myself. From getting a dynamic DNS service with duckdns, to configuring web servers with nginx, then figuring out that it’s very complex and that lighttpd works just fine.

I’ve also learned about Linux server administration. I’m also running some services I built myself like a tiny webserver accessible from here [1].

Also, I have a git repo @ [2] and used to have an archive box instance but I’m having some trouble with docker.

Additional info on the blog:

It uses markdown. The discount version, the closest one to the first proposed standard [4]. Also, it uses blogit. My own fork actually, accessible thru the git repo. Very simple. Uses git, if you don’t track a file it isn’t deployed. The blog itself is a git repo and in theory you could view the history of my whole blog thru git. Also, whenever I push to the server repo it deploys automatically and runs a git hook that just executes the blogit command and lighttpd merely serves static files so yeah, pretty cool.

Not to brag or anything but I am amazed at how much the internet has helped me. I am still a high school senior but like programming and got into Linux like a year and a half ago and I’ve just learned so much on my own and with the help of the internet.

I did not take any formal classes to do any of this, but thanks to free knowledge I was able to do all this. I ain’t trying to share or promote some propaganda, just my thoughts and me kinda spitballing here.

So yeah, that’s it. I have a list of possible project ideas on my blog as an article. I’d love to start out with a simple url shortener. No fancy data structures, no sql, no Db, plain C with sockets, maybe a linked list and maybe less than 500 LOC ?

Definitely not in a single launch, since ISS weighs around 500 tons. And I think designs for space stations in starship era would be different(more heavy, but orders of magnitude cheaper to produce), so something like ISS in a starship era might weigh 1.5-2x more(VERY rough estimate), but nonetheless be much cheaper.
I had a lot of fun with Activision's Battlezone and especially Battlezone II. I hadn't realized they were inspired by an older game by Atari. They seem to differ in that Activision's games also include elements of the RTS and FPS genres (build your base, command your troops, walk and shoot first-person, get into battleships and drive them, etc.). They have a story mode too, if I remember right, and Battlezone II has a cheat to enter an editor for the level landscapes.

> A monad is basically an OOP object.

i think it's the other way- an OOP object is a poor imitation of monadic algebra that cannot be generalized with mathematical rules to guarantee certain properties.
Some people have to conform. You've got to wear a tailored suit, you've got to sound slick, you've got to have your message clean and correct. But that's the point. It's because you're not exceptional so you have to meet the standard signals of being bare competent. But you take a generational talent, and he can sound however he sounds because it's obvious he is what he is and just being himself is the best thing he can be.

He can suck at all these things but you know he's one of a kind. Or maybe you don't think it. But it doesn't matter. There's enough people who do. And they'll listen.
Ok, so like 5-10. ISS took 40 assembly flights, with 36 being expensive space shuttle flights ($54k/kg).
>it's hard to explain the pattern observed in terms of the pre-K program itself;

What's so hard to explain? The article points out that the poor kids got drilling, worksheets and lectures, while wealthy kids get play-based programs. The results are no surprise to me at all. Young kids need play, not teaching.
I guess that is possible.

None of them look great, intuitively. Actually it is kind of interesting, although unsurprising on second thought, that the removed words skew toward these harsh g and k noises which don't show up as much elsewhere in English. So they don't look like good first picks. But maybe at some point strategies will advance to having common second picks or something like that.
Let's say someone argued instead that we should figure out a way to establish a human settlement inside of a volcano, or at the bottom of the deep ocean. Couldn't you make all the arguments you just made in favor of doing that as well? What makes Mars any different? Why is this specific Quixotic activity more valid than the ones I just mentioned?
I have firsthand experience with Zscaler and I will say that they do have a slight leg up with respect to features and functionality geared towards end user protection (ZIA). However I'd say that Cloudflare is closing the gap hard and fast with their Zero Trust, Gateway / SASE.

The tides turn, IMO, when you start to compare ZPA and Cloudflare Tunnel and Access. Zscaler ZPA is way behind the curve here and their deployment options are horrendously legacy in nature. Case in point every "connector" from Zscaler is a VM. People may complain about "cloudflared" but you're never going to see any of Zscaler's client/server code out on a public repo. Cloudflare has far more flexible options to cover more aspects if you're charter is Zero Trust in workloads.

I view Zscaler as a slight pivot with respect to how Palo Alto Networks and Checkpoint operated in the firewall market forever. It's the same old take dumped in the cloud. And at the end of the day Zscaler's pedigree is definitely user focused but now they're trying to shoehorn in workloads and a lot of the product is just not designed to offer a solution for workloads like Cloudflare is. Some of their acquisitions in the last few years were not good or scalable products, either.

The last point I'll mention is that Zscaler offers no public connectivity solutions. So, unlike Cloudflare who's fully ready to take on large scale traffic for your Internet facing applications Zscaler has nothing to support you there. They talk a lot about how many POPs they have globally and the connectivity in those POPs. They also like to claim they handle more requests per day than Google. It doesn't matter though because Zscaler doesn't have the pedigree to operate as a CDN nor would I trust them to given what I've seen of their other product lines.

If I'm betting with my own $$$ Cloudflare will eat Zscaler's lunch over the next few years.
I've written about it elsewhere, but I've made what I call a "newsbetting" site where users get an article stripped of defining details (author, news source, etc) and must bet whether the content comes from a right leaning or left leaning news source. I've been a good way for me to learn the basics of web development and I hope to introduce little side projects to improve it, like a toy blockchain or some NLP machine learning type project.
With .net core references are much cleaner. There isn't a reference to every file it's handled automatically. The whole csproj hell you're talking about is gone now.

Looks like the article predates bzflag by over a decade, there's a little blurb in there that mentions it, different from the re-publication date near the title.
I'm sure a plausible argument could be made, but nothing in HN's guidelines requires it.
Because, it's a massive centralized decrypted data repository, law enforcement can simply ask for the data and the company will hand it over. It's not their data so they don't care to defend it but because of the third party doctrine it's legally their data to hand off w/o your permission.

Peer to peer or end to end encryption removes this trivially easy access, which is why they don't like it.
Incredibly unethical in my opinion. Selfish, too—it poisons the well for other remote workers, who will now have to deal with the intrusive tracking and lack of trust this behavior engenders.
I completely agree with this line of reasoning, which is why I called the fixation with Mars Quixotic elsewhere in the thread. I was discussing this with some friends. Why not just pick some other totally inhospitable environment and try to live there instead? I mentioned inside a volcano lower in the thread. It seems to me you'd get all the same side-benefits of technological development.
It would potentially mean a huge backlog of boring but basically uncontroversial technical legislation, most likely.

> HTTPS is not end-to-end encrypted (it kinda would be if we used P2P but we don't) so you can subpoena the server.

How is https communication not end to end encrypted? And what’s the difference between subpoenaing a server vs an end user? The server is just another person/organization.

Edit: Re-reading this I guess you mean that having a centra server acting as a middle man would probably not be end to end which I agree with. I thought you meant user <—-> server wasn’t end to end.

Luc Montagnier Has Died
Elon plans to retire on Mars. He plans to die there. “Hopefully not on impact”

I expect he’ll share some of the risk (though not the super early super high risk) because the settlement will be risky for the first hundred+ years.
As has already been said, it's not like they have a spreadsheet of each users passwords. Someone with more of a security background could explain better, but even if they were "breached", the attackers would still need each individuals password at minimum, possible still their "recovery kit" which for everyone is high entropy enough that it is not guessable with the amount of energy in the universe.

(I have all my passwords in 1password, but if there is s legit weakness I'd definitely like to know it)
> but that hasn't stopped him from trying to stop others from benefiting from the same.

That's complete nonsense. Unlike others SpaceX has never really attack other space companies. Musk has been supportive of other space companies.

SpaceX busted open the establishment in both DoD and NASA so the contracts are fairly competent, and everybody coming in the industry benefits from that.

SpaceX just recently lost a contract about Commercial Leo Destination but unlike BlueOrigin they didn't release a pamphlet, an army of lobbyist and a bunch of lawyers.

Can you be specific of what actions SpaceX has taken to prevent others space company from gaining government contracts (other then competing for them)?

> Take, for example, the time he smoked a blunt on camera which isn't exactly what one of his largest customers likes to see in their executives they are entrusting with launching one of a kind national security assets.

Something that had basically no impact other then some not really serious slap on the wrist because the military is federal and not state law and they had to pretend to give a shit.

It wasn't the smartest thing to do but to hold that up as some great example about how he is a bad manager is ridiculous for a company that has been as successful as SpaceX.

> I'm glad SpaceX has an actual professional management team to run most day to day operations.

A lot of those manager are engineers that came up in SpaceX. Early on it was basically Elon and his secretary and a group of senior technical team lead that did everything. Musk was heavily in involved in recruitment, supply chain and other typical management things.

He is very capable of doing management work for small or large company but whenever he can avoid it, he doesn't do it, because its not where he adds most value beyond overall strategy.

I'm a little confused by this. A lot of cameras had aperture priority mode in the film days. You set the apeture and the camera would adjust the shutter speed appropriately.

(I had a canon T90 that had it and shot with a borrowed nikon 8008 that had it as well).

The T90 had a spot meter mode where you could use the center circle and tap and extra button (next to the shutter button) to have it average the exposure of all your spots.
