> The reason I don't care about business plans is that I can learn more from 5 minutes of interrogating the founders than from 10 pages of fluff they've written.

Presumably Paul isn't meeting with every single founder who is applying to YC. So he must be using a different filtering mechanism to winnow down the funnel. This is usually the role that business plans have often played.

As someone who hates writing business plans as well, it would be wonderful if YC released a "here's why you should meet with me" doc template that people can use widely as a replacement for business plans.

I believe a recent BIOS/Firmware update fixed this issue.
Along the same lines as "the tallest blade of grass is always mowed" and "the late worm misses the bird".
I do not think it needs full optimality to be useful though. Because the tools are open source, I can see making SpinalHDL et al. to bitfile in a streamlined flow a reality. You can finally have performant, functional languages supported by tools. Because, as someone who uses them every day, VHDL, Verilog, and SystemVerilog are not good.
We use notion and when I read this review, the irony is that its weakest point is the search. Just like with most of these tools. In the case of notion, it is not the results, but the fact that search is so slow.

Otherwise, the it is is super powerful. In a few cases, too powerful and having cases when one doesn't use all of its powers.

I don’t think the point of living beyond 100 years old is the years that come after you are 90 (pretty bad years), but that one has more “nice” years to live. Example:

- average person who dies at 80. Middle point in his life at 40. At 20 the person has already lived a 1/4 of his life.

- imagine a supercentenarian who dies at, for the sake of examples, 120. This person at his 60s is like the average person at his 40s! If we consider that for the average person his “sweet years” end at 35, a supercentenarian’s sweet years end at 51!
Perhaps the biggest difference is DD-WRT will accept binary-blob drivers for some SOCs / Wi-Fi chips whereas Open-WRT won't. This is notably problematic for Broadcom powered devices where the result is often that Open-WRT cannot provide 5 Ghz and 2.4 Ghz is sometimes spotty.

I don’t know how to tell you which one is which. But I compare them visually and I know two.

The one with red flesh, and the one with yellow flesh. (Could be the same one at different points in its life)

My baseline is the plums I ate growing up in Argentina.

The red ones are full of flavor, especially when ripe. The softer they get the juicer and sweeter they get. These are bigger in size.

The yellow ones are more acidic, but get sweeter as they ripen. Also good. Smaller in size, I can fit a whole one in my mouth.
I find the same red/yellow variants in the US. But without the flavor. They are also flavorless no matter what stage you eat them at. Ripe, not ripe, all the same: water.
The yellow ones are just bleh. Acidic without the good side.

I gave them plenty of chances at different times of the year and in different locations. The best ones I had were in upstate NY in September, but still about 7/10ths of the flavor of the ones in South America.

It's really sad how the custom router firmware scene dried up since the early 2010s. Manufacturers blocking these installs more agressively, with more complicated and vendor-specific quirks most new devices are incompatible, and even if, setup is more problematic. The most common suggestion for custom router firmware is to just set up a dedicated device like a Raspberry for this task, and use dumb WIFI access points and gigabit switches.

Let’s not balk at prices when a newcomer stands up to Big Social. Their true customers are the advertisers, and no honest business can compete with ad-driven “free” products on price. I imagine Facebook already sells Quest at a loss, and making its future equivalent free will surely be a logical move for them to capture eyeballs—but that does not mean competitors must be free, otherwise would imply no competitor ever, apart from those backed by nation-states or shady business models.

For the record, I’m sure I’m far from the only one who 1) never had a VR headset yet, 2) would not buy a Facebook product, and 3) could buy one for US$2k+ for experiments if that means no lock-in. It’s the price of a decent laptop. Weren’t the original Oculus prices in that ballpark, before FB came in with its billions?

ASUS lets you flash whatever you want. The router firmware scene died for the same reason that the Android firmware scene died: manufacturer firmwares stopped sucking so people don't have an incentive to waste their time flashing stuff anymore.
It's getting burned one way or the other.

Just that BTC consumes the energy and probably need AC so even more energy and consumed additional CO2 through making the ASIC.

And we are not in a isolated world. The miners will search and find a cheaper energy source anyway. Either by buying a gas power plant or by moving to cheaper country. No one is forcing a miner to use 'excess' energy.

'excess' energy is energy we need to make viable and work together for finding solutions. Bitcoin destroys this motivation.

Thanks to Bitcoin a global market can not only strip poor people from normal resources like oil, ors, metals but also from energy in any usable form.

Whatever it is doing it will find the cheapest energy possible and will consume it as long as the Bitcoin price allows it, totally independent of they type of energy.

Earning money through Bitcoin also not only incentive to eat up all cheap energy, it strips our society from a beneficial dripping effect.

The supply chain of Bitcoin is minimal with little to negative effects.

Asics consume chip production capacity. Talking about Bitcoin creates mental load.

And of course let's be realistic: we have already a PoS system (our currencies) which is highly optimized. BTC doesn't even solve anything.

There is no positive thing we as a society gain from Bitcoin.

99,999999% of all humans are getting hurt by it.

We all pay for Bitcoin.

Ask HN: What's your learning strategy?
What's your strategy for retaining knowledge from lectures, papers, textbooks, talks, etc?

Specifically,
1) Do you take notes?
2) Do you compile/rewrite notes?
3) Does spaced repetition work for you?
4) Do you have a methodology for extracting common themes/patterns across topics?

Thanks!

Where was this outrage?
We do at the moment, yes, but it won't be missed once it's gone (indeed, I think it'll seem ludicrous that we paid for closed source software -- imagine that -- retrospectively).

https://www.reciperadar.com/ was built entirely using open source software and tools (with the arguable exception of GitHub, Google and a brief foray into Figma, all used internally but without involvement in the software service (and all potential dependencies that are identified for replacement with GitLab, self-hosted mail and Penpot, respectively)). It's not great software, but it's a demonstration that it's possible.
I made my own graph-based note-taking tool where you don't write notes, just titles. It's built on Streamlit and really rickety, but (when I have time to tend to it, which I haven't for months with the baby) it's been a very interesting way to compose thought fragments and find ideas for essays for my blog.

Traditional business plans are fantasy with numbers.

"By Q4 2025 expected turnover is..."

No one should take that kind of prediction seriously. (Although VCs sometimes do, which is unfortunate.)

Plans exist to show you know what a market is and that you can research the details enough to know who else is in the space, what they've done, how they did it, and what they missed.

If no one else is in the space - still possible, but rare - you should at least be able to point to some comparable efforts, some of which should be your own.

The point is to show that you're capable of thinking strategically and not just nailing some code to the wall and hoping someone will pay to get some use out of it.

If you intend to build the CRUD app with a programming language (opposed to a low-code or no-code tool), then PHP would be suitable.

At least half of HN will recoil in horror, but PHP was designed for web programming and nothing else. The standard library will have almost everything you need. Deployment is easier than many other languages. It can be as simple as uploading your PHP files to a folder located on your hosting provider.

"Something which is not easy to compromise or hack."

Well, this is dependent on the skill of the programmer and takes time to learn. The alternative is to pull in external dependencies i.e a framework that tackles security issues like authentication, database access etc. But learning to use a framework will also be a time sink (but less time-consuming that building from scratch).

"The closest I can think of is a static site generator with some kind of self-hosted database but I'm not aware of any."

Static Site Generators (SSG) do not use databases and would not be suitable for a dynamic CRUD app. Even a 'simple' task such as signing-in to your CRUD app (if needed) is not possible with a SSG unless you plug in an external dependency.

Remember, if you go down the low-code or no-code tool approach you'll always be tied to the low-code platform who will host your CRUD app.
Well that is interesting too. The same does not appply to weight. But for some reason I find the age distribution more curious.
Can you elaborate on what the app does and also prioritize your criteria?

If simplicity is your main requirement you might find inspiration in this:

> My focus has been on how to adapt the lessons I have learned working in teams at Google to a single programmer building small business work. There are many great engineering practices in Silicon Valley's big companies and well-capitalized VC firms, but one person does not have enough bandwidth to use them all and write software. The exercise for me is: what to keep and what must go.

There's no way to prevent overlapping extensions. One could easily make an x86 extension that overlaps with some existing one. There's just as much an incentive to not do that for x86 as there is for RISC-V.

See AMD's SSE5 vs Intel's SSE4 conflict in x86 - both have instructions that the other doesn't have, and some that both have, and, from what I understand, even the instruction formats conflict.
Couldn't agree more. I'm starting to believe in this paradigm and would love to see future iterations. Almost enough so to pay the initial backer tax for this model.
Prior discussion of this incident (and the $2M bounty) here on Hacker News:

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30289240

My (I'm the hacker) article / post-mortem this blog post is referring to:

https://www.saurik.com/optimism.html

At the time of this last getting traction a few days ago, some people were sad that the title of my article and the discussion that resulted focused more on the bug instead of the bounty (which my article gets into near the end as part of some high-level thoughts on ethics), which is maybe why I am suddenly seeing this appear here again this morning (as this news article is instead focussing on the bounty angle)?

FWIW, the $2M bounty--which was actually listed as $2,000,042 (as they wanted it to sort higher on the list at Immenufi, lol)--was potentially (none of us realized this at the time I "won", and I am honestly still not 100% sure of it now, though I haven't yet come across any counter-examples) the largest single bug bounty payout ever (...though, by only $42 ;P).
It seems strange for some people because they imagine this "average" as a classical mean and the intuitive shape of the bell curve - the biggest chunk must be in the middle ("for every child that dies at birth someone must live to be 160 to have the 80 years average where most people should be") rather than a statistical life expectancy. We substantially reduced a lot of the external factors killing us early (disease, war, accidents, etc.) and we're hitting the real limit of human lifespan. We haven't addressed this because we don't have the tools yet. So all the work was to push the curve to the right because that benefits most people and it has a lower threshold to achieve this, without actually pushing the tail end further right because it benefits very few and it seems like an impossible task today.

The average speed for an F1 race might be 250Km/h. This doesn't mean any of the cars can ever hit close to 500Km/h. Just that we eliminated most of the reasons cars were slowing down and were left with the fundamental limits of the car's speed as dictated by it's engine, grip, aerodynamics, or weight.
Yeah politics on twitter is awful. For outsiders like me it is often hard to even understand what a popular political tweet is even about. Twitter is good for pictures of nature though. And somehow a great deal of decent scientific discourse goes on twitter without descending into the crap that political twitter does.
So basically, it's flamebait? That'd be a pretty disappointing circumstance.

I don't know pg but the HN brand is certainly to rise above stating disinformation to start arguments and drive engagement.

I guess maybe that's what Twitter is for, but then maybe the mods should stop that sort of thing leaking to HN ...

Any chance you're mistaken?
> If 1 out of 100 impressions leads to a purchase it's alredy a good performance.

What are some low-stress jobs that pay well?

I've thought that some IT jobs might fit the bill, particularly if one only needs to work a small number of hours each day.

When I was a teenager, I worked at a gas station, which was mostly low-stress and even had a lot of down time that I could use for reading. But the pay was terrible and I had no benefits.
That was certainly my interpretation. I can't really think of a more politically savvy thing the prosecutor could have said.

I feel the same.

My theory is that I’ve learned from my past mistakes of being a shut-in due to social anxiety, which led me to spiral downward when things inevitably went wrong in life.

I decided to do something about that: face my anxiety head on.

Now I have a thriving network of close friends, colleagues, mentors, and family. Things will go wrong, but I have a support stem. I will be okay.

Being okay is rad.

One of the most surprising parts of this transformation is when people reach out to me after something has gone wrong in their life. I used to freeze in those moments. Unsure how to act or what to say. Now I feel honored to be there for a friend, and it’s rewarding in ways I never thought possible.
Honestly, imho there is no reason to do this, the cost-benefit analysis is all downsides and zero upsides. Removing this will absolutely break websites, and you gain nothing as a result, except "technical correctness". Not a single user will benefit from that change.
It's the same...GPT is the partition-table, you even write it yourself:

parts are partitions and not subvolumes, a subvolume is a filesystem or volume-manager on top of a partition and it's size/quota etc is defined BY the filesystem or the volume-manager (look up btrfs subvolumes, zfs-filesystems or lvm).

(from parent's parent)

My repeated product/company question was not a mistake. I cannot find any source placing the number of Facebook (product/platform) users anywhere close to "half the population of Earth".

The number of Facebook and Instagram users combined (and WhatsApp even boosts this number) seems more suiting but under the assumption that there are no duplicate users logging to more platforms at least once monthly.

While I agree with your overall point, I think there's even lower hanging fruit that's still not picked up.

In France, at least, when there are more than two lanes, basically no one drives on the rightmost lane.

Yes, I know about the traffic law requiring staying in your lane if there is dense traffic. I'm specifically talking about the case when there is little to no traffic.
It won't, as all of these standards are shorter than the necessary pole-to-house link.

If you have a situation which needs relatively high-speed short-range networking between subsystems and is space-constrained for the wiring -- inside a vehicle, mostly -- these will be helpful.

Fiber is great at everything except installation and robustness, and if you know the distance you'll be going and/or can coil up extra, installation is solved with pre-terminated connectors.
I beg to differ. In my opinion, life doesn’t really start until you’re 25 or so, maybe even 30. The first 18 years are generally spent at home, following other peoples rules, and learning how to get by. The next few years you get your independence and start finding your place in the world. If you went to college, then you enter the workforce and are probably getting by, still finding your footing.

Then the real fun starts.
