Would you care to share that? Combining notes and to-dos is something I've been trying to achieve for a while now, without much success.
Actually this is sad
Ask HN: Is Twitter Down “Again”?
Everything is "Something went wrong. Try reloading.Retry"

Edit: Ok, turns out I was "Rate Limited" for opening too many Tabs with Twitter.
If people are spending 1500 on a phone rather than 750 each on laptop/phone, the performance isn't necessarily worse.

That's the real killer feature.
The next logical step is to have AI (GPT-3?) read the social posts of the contact and produce an email based on that and the last email. I hope the poor people on the other end of the author's networking scheme also have AI to read this and reply.
He didn’t talk about friends you are. Still you can safely assume most of the people in the three weeks category are close contacts.

Unless you are in college and have little to no obligations, it gets hard to stay in touch with all your friends and keep track of what is happening to them. It’s not treating people like assets. He is putting efforts on his side towards keeping connections and to do that he needs tools to help.

What does it change that he uses reminder to think about reaching out? In the end he is still the one doing work towards fostering relationships.
Yeah, nah. I'll wait until Putin actually invades to believe that he will, because I sure as hell am not going to trust unfounded assertions from lying warmongers. Yemen is still being brutalized. I haven't forgotten Libya, Syria, Iraq, or Afghanistan, or the BS they tried to pull in Venezuela. Gulf of Tonkin, anyone?
Sending money to people when banks refuse to provide the service.

A few years ago I had a client in Indonesia, who couldn't pay me via banks, because Indonesia banks just said 'no' to transfers to Russia, and Paypal/WesterUnion fees were exorbitant. We tried bitcoin and were blown away: the whole operation (buying btc for Indonesian currency, sending it, selling it for Russian currency) transaction did cost far less than just converting USD to RUB in a bank.

One acquaintance of mine lives in Turkey and Turkish banks refuse to open an account for him. So he receives his payments via Bitcoin and converts them to local cash currency via a local trader.

Also, Bitcoin is the last available way to fund anti-Putin opposition in Russia, our authoritarian government has blocked all other ways to do it.
Interesting, you're claiming that Scandinavians that go working in US & come back have more US attitude, and Scandinavia in general is more towards Japan?

Currently working in Japan, and being from Scandinavia I can barely see the resemblance. I've only worked at startups & briefly in a public research Institute here, So sure maybe at big corporations there might be resemblance with the trainee-programs vs new-grad shukatsu system of Japan, but that's about it and afaik that's same in US.

Friends from Uni in Scandinavia didn't really show any "employee loyalty"; it correlated with the size of the company, and inverse correlation with age.
I have a similar system, not for friends, but for acquaintances, business connections etc. I have a google sheet and a google script, the script runs once per day and checks the last time I emailed them or they emailed me. If it’s too long ago it adds a reminder to my calendar for that day. It’s simple and means I don’t have to remember to use the system.
The author explicitly says the goal of this work is for opportunities
>less smoking ads -> less smoking

Can you proof that or is that the same hoax like "same salary for men and women"

Hint..have a look at France.
Same here. Learned CGI.pm and read the Perl & MySQL book by Dubois as well as most of the O'Reilly Perl collection. Then I was off to the races. Built an app with CGI::Application which ran a client's business for over a decade without many hiccups. Programming Perl by Larry Wall and Mastering Regular Expressions by Jeffrey Friedl are still some of my favourite tech books.
Does it really matter wether Reddit makes backups? If it is interesting enough to save, it will be reposted or copied or whatever. If it isn't it will get lost in the mass of other "interesting" things.
I resonate so much with this, it felt very easy to fall out of touch with people that I had closer some time ago.

I've actually started building a more niche version of cal.com|calendly that focuses exactly on this but with a twist for coffee :) the main differentiator being setting a "time limit" that reminds you to meet X. Very similar to this A,B,C or D system.

It feels robotic, but if it helps someone that's enough for me.
You act like Dropbox is successful when they are not. A company paying other companies to advertise and push their products and burning through cash to appear successful is not success.
Yup. The men's world record 10k is the 12:30.74 in the link. I think the longer blades on the skates help reduce overall friction, and modern skates have this detach function in the heel which lets the whole blade stay on the I've for longer, both of which help speed.
People definitely do this on matchmaking sites!
I now added a license.txt
How does the whole designing, printing actually works in this case? So the manufacturer would send a prototype and you would test it, make sure it meets your quality requirements and then give a go ahead? The to and forth would also take lot of time!

I am really interested in learning more about this and your journey
Aren’t donations to political causes required to be public record in the United States? Or, is that only for donations candidates but not to causes?

I also assume that the funding site is required to turn over this data to CSIS anyways, unless they actively ensure that only Canadians are being permitted to donate. Otherwise they risk being treated as an enemy of the Canadian state for ‘clandestine’ foreign interference in Canada’s interests, as keeping that list secret from CSIS while accepting foreign (non-Canadian) donations would exempt them from the political protest protections in the CSIS act, and expose themselves to risk of extradition to Canada.
I find this well meaning, but mostly incoherent.

The fact that implementations are essentially required to interoperate with other fielded implementations is pragmatically true, regardless of any principle. Older versions also don't go away even if newer versions are created. We will still need bug-for-bug interoperability even in a world without the "robustness principle".

The main remedies proposed are largely about the setting of the standards themselves, rather than the implementations. Active protocol maintenance, extensibility and virtuous intolerance are things that must happen in the standard. The robustness principle applies to implementations, not the setting of standards.
Still broken when trying to send to the same contact. Also tried with a German VPN and same result.

What's super interesting though is that from what I can see it sends fine to my EU contacts but not to US contacts. I don't want to spam all my friends so I can't collect too many data points.
It's not about being serious, it's about "at least we did something, and now shut up"
If you like the idea of asking questions from your data in plain English, there are also other alternatives to Power BI, like Tableau's Ask Data, ThoughtSpot and Veezoo (free for 5 users). Here is a series of comparison videos to show their strengths: https://veezoo.com/compare-solutions/

Disclaimer: I'm one of the co-founders of Veezoo.
Fully agree, especially during current instability. I think that everyone got used to constant "it's about to crash" news but the volatility and uncertainty are visible in recent months. I don't remember when inflation numbers releases were that impactful.

The good coming out of this is the visibility of how strongly dependant cryptocoins are.
I like how you went from "other people's reddits" to creating your own distribution in there. Unfortunately the web is too big and too crowded now, and i do think that owning your distribution is the only solution.
"if you cared, you'd remember"

glad you have this experience, i dont think all of us do. i care deeply but seem to forget people exist and that makes me sad and dislike myself. i wish i could just remember. id still have so many friends if i did.
> after a while, make it incredibly difficult to find those notes again when needed

This wasn't my experience, though. Maybe because I don't put everything there like braindumps, I can find what I need very quickly, it is enough to remember some tag, or just use Search. (Note: I use Roam free alternative called Logseq, but it works almost identically).
It is not much different than having birthday of your family members in the calendar. It is just a tool to remind you to make contact, what contact will be like is entirely up to you.
Something that really freaks me out about the world is how much power tech people have and that their sociopathic behaviour, like treating all your personal relationships as transactional data, is considered a "simple system".
I'm a sw dev, but I've always held a slight disdain for those in my field who have no love or fascination left for the machinery on which their craft is held.

I'm also a computer-history enthusiast and so this article is very enjoyable, it's both well written, easy to read and filled with interesting stories, so it is most definitely worth a read.
Which all FAANGs hire remote now? I thought they all had requirements of office
I'm not sure I agree with your take here, it's rather uncharitable.

I've lost touch with friends because I failed to do this sort of thing, it's easy to not keep up with people when there is no immediate driver or common interest (perhaps I'm atypical or neurodivergent) this is multiplied when you leave a country and no longer see some people on a regular basis.

A system like this would ensure my forgetful nature doesn't kick in and give me that reason I need just to check in on someone I actually care about but haven't had the opportunity to speak to in a while.
>The Swiss government pays for it's citizens' healthcare,

Wow haha, that's some massive false information you have.
How would that even work if git was released in 2005? Am I missing something?
Once upon a time a colleague went to work for another company because of the incredibly higher paycheck. When i talked to her six months later she told me she didn't like the job at all, but it paid well.

Her manager became pretty aggressive when she was one minute late for work only once. Only then she started noticing people were gone from the building within 30 seconds of the end of their shift. The job purely became a money thing. Nobody cared for each other. Just be on on time for your shift and get the hell out when your shift ended so you couldn't get forced into unpaid overtime by some manager. Zero happiness for eight hours a day.

Yay for the money i guess?
I've lost battles with an editor (of a popular publication) that ultimately led to inaccuracies like this creeping in. They just cared about readability far more than truth.
Code gets copy pasted manually???? I would never have guessed that.

Don't they just use Git merging?
Ask HN: What do you do with your Raspberry Pi?
You could just chroot into normal GNU based user spaces before they screwed it up between all the namespace stuff and then later restricting exec. I even ran X11 apps on my Android a long time ago with zero virtualization overhead.
Of course not, but when people are opportunist they don't think it is wrong when they do it only other people. There is always groups willing to play the victim card too. So if you call out a fallacy in their argument, but they associate themselves with a group such as BLM then they will just claim you're racist. People should evaluate individuals as a whole but a lot of people want to hear someone get called a racist or Nazi without any context and then have a mob attack them. The ironic part is that they were just projecting and then mob ends up becoming what they claim to be against.
Thanks, this was a great explanation.
Amazon will have to pay a premium for workers that have 6% culling risk. If pay the same, zero chance picking Amazon assuming other factors are same too.
I think describing other people as "friends" or "assets" are just labels you've made up. I think it's unnecessary to be condescending by saying someone else's interpretation is "incredibly sad".
I can't prove this part which is why I've explicitly stated the assumption.
This is the best ELI5 in this thread. Thanks.
It's completely and utterly superficial. You just cannot stay in touch with hundreds of people - it's not possible, unless you are doing so superficially and treating "friends" as "things I need to check up on so I don't lose a node to a network of people that might be helpful to me".

Completely maxed out, humans can only have about 150 friends[1]. Trying to have more is just not being genuine. And think about the other side of this - what if you learned someone you thought actually cared about you, or that you actually considered a friend, was using a fucking automated system to "stay in touch". It's sociopath behavior.

W...what? I own copies of the Databases and Microprocessors books, and haven't seen anything like "up-skirt shots of teenage schoolgirls". What are you referring to?
It’s just a joke. When creating a commit, you can override the timestamp to whatever you want.
I look forward to reading this recap of the training methods of an Olympic gold medalist.

That said, I think these sorts of books should be seen as valuable data for serious athletes, but never as gospel. To paraphrase my former coach: if Nils van der Poel would make a point of always practicing in a tutu, would you as well?
Yep. The author is a legit sociopath. This should in no way be considered acceptable human behaviour.
You can modify the git history to your liking. There are tools for that, like reposurgeon [1].

How do you manage to lose touch with friends? Did you not miss them?

If you did, why didn't you contact them?

If you didn't, why do you care?

One can not forget about friends, one can only stop caring.
I’d say that the genesis is a genuine interest in keeping in touch, automation is managing the process. I get behind on messages with my closest friends/family, and then I have a large network of professional/semi-personal relationships to maintain.

I empathise why the OP would do this.
Most successful ideas were tried before and abandoned.
I suspect 2 Olympic golds and consecutive world records on 10km would be enough for that. He said in an interview that he liked the camaraderie that slope style free-skiers had between themselves and wished more sharing in the speed skating community.
I don't know if it's a good enough alternative but one of the reasons why StackOverflow and Wikipedia have been so steadfast is because of their libre/free licensing (CC-BY-SA). Both are centralized but because the user content is clearly licensed to allow replication, it encourages dissemination, allows for users to know their content won't be lost and, in the worst case, can help bootstrap an alternative, should the main organization fold.

I find it depressing to see how many sites don't follow this basic principle, that user content should, by default, be effectively dedicated to the commons. HN falls into this trap and I so I suspect it's only a matter of time before all the discussions and user generated content disappears from the web.
A date is just a number in a file. You can create Git commits with any date you want.

Thanks for your effort on k8s, as well as for taking the time to contribute to this discussion.

> My only regret is that more people that were so important in the k8s community couldn’t be featured!

Would you like to list some of those individuals here? Perhaps they have homepages/blogs we can check out?
I went with a hybrid approach in university: I didn't take any notes in class so I could actually focus on the lecture and actively think along. Later, in preparation for the exam, I would go through all slides again and turn them into notes, compressing a whole lecture down to 20 pages or so.
I would immediately block someone if I found out they were doing this to me. Disgusting behaviour.
Every protest make people uncomfortable, part of living in democratic society.
No it's not PERL, it's either Perl or perl, depending on what you're refering to.

https://wiki.c2.com/?PerlIsNotAnAcronym

I've been using Perl and Python for over 20 years. Both are delightful, in their own way.
I've always viewed (and I'm talking about IPv4 here) that the IP layer allows two computers to exchange data, while UDP and TCP allow two processes to exchange data. In other words, IP names a computer, and UDP/TCP name a process. It's probably not really needed for IPv6, but the concept was carried over since it was already there.
Data and Integrations. Applications are mostly a way to produce and transform data. When you buy a lot of applications all trying to keep data locked in their systems, you cannot easily build BI, ML, AI or simply Automation models because data is all over the place. On the other hand, these low code tools don't make data easier because they don't enforce proper API designs, the SQL on top of React components is fun for a while but not everything is UI.

Said that, I always prefer to buy or use open source solution when there is one, as long as they have a good API and an easy way to get data out of them.
As an aside: this is exactly what tech bros do not get about the AirTags when we try to get the message across about how bad they are for stalking. Every time I try to bring this up, I am told that Tile, GPS trackers, Samsung I-do-not-even-know-what already exists. Who cares -- the AirTags work, alas they work exceptionally well (precision and battery life wise especially), easily accessible, their existence easily discoverable. They are devastating in this field. Problem is, vulnerable people will use public transit where it's practically guaranteed within a ten meter radius there will be an iPhone, especially so in North America where the iPhone is so prevalent. Meanwhile, the victim might not have an iPhone, just some scuffed Android 'cos that's all they can afford. That Apple released (or didn't recall) them is a blow, that Congress didn't ban them is not really because it's not like we expect Congress to be functional, to protect poor people especially women. But watch a stalking case involving one going bad (= rape, murder) in, say, Germany and then watch the EU bringing down the banhammmer.
How did anyone find anything before smartphones?
A self-signed certificate provides an identity the same way as a CA-signed one. The only difference is that it is in a CA chain.

You may trust the CA enough to not check further, but if you want to make sure that the endpoint you are talking with is the one you expect, you should check the identity of the certificate on the server. And it is the same for a self-signed certificate as from a CA-issued one.
Crypto couple had Russian bank accounts, traveled to Ukraine to collect fake IDs
> At a certain point I realised I was spending more time figuring out how to tag my mp3 colletion

I then came to conclusion MP3 tags are harmful and removed them altogether. Because you can never tell a song genres reliably and many things can be written many different ways.
Ask HN: What made your business take off that you wish you'd done much earlier?
What is the main thing that made your business take off and start to see success that you're kicking yourself you didn't start doing it much earlier?

Thanks HN!
Airplanes can also have these fitted on the wings. Although not as common as yaw strings and usually for demonstration purposes.
Linux has had KVM, sure, but mobile ARM CPUs have not had the necessary virtualization extensions for “native” speed hypervisors up until very recently.
I wonder if it is, in any way, related to Xerox PARC's NoteCards[1] built in 1984, i.e., "Links are used to represent binary connections between cards."

Closed software is impossible to predict and pathological behavior is too profitable. You should never use closed software.
It's the same thinking Putin is using to shut down groups that fight for democracy. Every new idea is foreign and "funded" by foreign actors, its part of the liberal democracy spreading its ideas playbook.
> Nowadays, governments and other institutions can easily block a bank account with very little reasons and then you need to go through a long process of proving your innocence.

This has been happening to immigrants from Hong Kong to the UK who have an HSBC Bank account... On the request of the Chinese government. HSBC has quite a big presence in China and Hong Kong, so I'm not sure they have much of a choice. Sucks either way.

I do miss some people. I do not contact them, because I do not think they feel the same way about me, and I do not want to bother them.
Social anxiety is a thing.
> include any games that carry it.

I see many games are open source so, why not? Just being curious.
Yeah, type of fatty cream. Used for whipped cream, but in general also when lot of fat is desired or not cared about.
For some people memory is event-driven not interrupt-driven. They can remember all the steps in a complex task, or when with friends, all their shared history but forget to take out the trash, or birthdays, or to call their friends.
From the article:

> Most importantly, I always send the kind of messages I’d like to receive. They’re short, genuine, and (ideally) helpful. I never try to sell anything and there’s no agenda other than to keep in touch.

You might've read that:

> So unless you have a solid system, chances are high that you won’t reach out to people regularly and miss out on a ton of fun and opportunities.

but intentionally miss the fun part and treat "opportunities" only in thebusiness context and do not allow for alternative interpretations like intellectual or personal development.
What's the problem with eGPUs? The most problematic thing I see is that they only work with intel CPUs for now and that all enclosures are tb3.

Also Samsung is really good at adding features and then locking them down in weird ways, breaking basic features or just providing horrible user experience.
Sounds like the guy you hired had a talent. Maybe you, too. More of that.
Shut up and take my liquidity in your farming pools!!!
Actually, it is a helpful system to be in touch with ex-coworker or colleagues or even some old classmates, but a sad one for friends and relatives.
If the work is unique, they can pay premium over market rate consultant and freelancer professional. Their staff policy is the same as commodity like barrel of oil ... totally fungible and replaceable. That is their IP. They themselves don't have significant IP compare to the rest of tech companies.
Research it with your mouth on your next hike, drink from a stream in the mountains--go high altitude, if you don't get altitude sickness when you arrive at base camp, it won't be enough--and drink water that anyone can see is pure. Assay it with your mouth, it will be conspicuously delicious. When you return, taste the tap, it will not be anything like it. Then if you brush your teeth, you will realize that that is what it tastes like: city water tastes like toothpaste, because that's the intention, to make water good for your teeth, with the same chemical that makes toothpaste good for your teeth.

It's toothpaste's signature flavor. The flavor you were told not to object to in childhood when you brushed, guess what, your senses know what it is, sodium flouride wasn't discovered in a lab, many places have it in their groundwater. It's gross because it's supposed to be gross, you aren't supposed to drink that water if you have a better choice.
