Seems like it usually comes in when people try to support building on Windows.

Not sure people "like" it, but they claim it makes the job easier.

Sometimes cmake is optional. That is, one can still type "make" on Linux/BSD and just ignore the cmake files. Unfortunately, that seems to be the less common way to use cmake.

Using cmake on Linux/BSD does seem like overkill. It is not necessary. I share the aversion to learning cmake but always figured complaining about it would not be well-received.
There is very little there to judge whether or not it can compete.

What makes it better? How will you draw creators and viewers to reach critical mass? Why has TikTok succeeded while others have not?

I'd really like to see a twitch competitor, and suspect they would be easier to compete with. Lots of complaints, no alternatives.
With AR you go out, with VR you no longer have to. And yes, I want AR but potential wise... Not sure if their aren't billions of people who would rather just sit inside in nice worlds being entertained for almost free than step outside in the horrorshow they actually live in. I mean in a few years or so when the manual jobs are gone and we missed a bunch of climate goals etc.

Off topic, but I really hate this trend of using animate-in transitions for _every_ _single_ _section_ of the page. Why I do always have to scroll into a half a window's worth of blank background before the content appears with some cutesy slide-in animation? I could perhaps forgive it if it was just badly implemented lazy-loading images but it also does this for simple section titles and body text as well. It ends up taking twice the time to read since you have to keep waiting for text to appear. It also looks quite bizarre if you refresh the page while scrolled to the bottom and then scroll back up.

To be clear, this is not a complaint about tying dynamic effects to scroll position. Apple does those all the time [0][1][2] but at least you will never have a big gap of blank content at the bottom of the page, usually there is fresh content continously immediately visible as you are scrolling. I don't even mind if there is a bit of initial page-loading animation at the start, as long as it's just once.

Does anyone really prefer reading pages like this? It just seems very disrespectful of the user's time, forcing them to continuously wait just to read your promotional copy.

Sometimes I imagine an "alternate history" where IPv4 had 64-bit addresses, SCTP was used for everything we use TCP for, and "well-known ports" were eschewed in favor of DNS SRV records for service location (and all the goodness they bring).

>but you can’t say “can I get a lawyer?” [...] Thus a seemingly-rigid law being bent beyond reasonable interpretation.

Is this from another court case, or your own personal speculation? Saying "can I get a laywer" (as in, just that, not as part of a long winded sentence) is a much clearer statement of intent than what the "lawyer dawg" guy said. For that reason I think the courts would count that as "requesting a lawyer", even if your 5th grade english teacher disagrees.
One of the key differentiators is that most of these standards are point-to-point--they only connect 2 devices. So, it doesn't work very well for replacing things like CAN.

10Base-T1S is multidrop on single pair--which is basically a CAN replacement.

Unfortunately, I haven't seen much movement at all in the T1S space.
Depending on how deep you want the answer to be?

On one of the levels without ww2 and the cold war afterwards — there would never be the Internet and modern computers as we know them [1]

On a philosophical level — as long as there is a dualism, there is a constant battle and interplay between the sides. So war in one form or another is as inevitable as peace.

In a sense the whole life itself is a constant battle between good and evil, chaos and order, entropy and information [2]

On the surface — scarced resources, justice, religions are just silly stories that people create for themselves to sugarcoat and rationalize those (or other) deeply embeded into the reality drivers.

If you look into the history of this specific governor and Missouri politics it makes more sense that he's an ideologue that refuses to accept any kind of bad press or even that mistakes can happen. This is the same politician that claimed he solved Missouri "covid problem" but ranks middle of the pack. It's a mindset that is all too common in politics today. Everything inconvenient is fake news. Every embarrassing headlines needs to be countered in the culture wars. Silence dissent, crush free press, etc etc.

I will generalize D&D to all pen and paper role playing games.

But you are right for a subset of them and wrong for a much larger subset of the games. There are people that play D&D more as a tactical wargame with a set story, and is basically just a game you would play on a computer (And those games exist!). But for many many other styles of games, the point is that you are using your imagination and flexibility to react to the story that no computer could do. Or alternatively there are many games that are more of a collaborative storytelling - improv game that may occasionally use dice. There is a very large spectrum of games.
Sadly they seem to have missed the fact that many people have the old site bookmarked, and if you go back to the old site it will transfer your old stats again, erasing any progress you've made since then. At least I was able to repro that on two separate browsers.

Hey HN,

I recently wanted to plan my year as I'm challenging myself to build 10 projects/businesses this year. During the planning, I wanted to have a clear view of what my year would look like and my reflex was to simply use Google Calendar. The issue is that when you toggle the year view, the events are not showing up which is a bummer.

So I decided to build a little tool to fill this gap. It's a very simply Yearly Planner that allows you to add timelines to a year calendar and color code them. I also added a section to fill in your 5 most important goals for the year.

You can give it a try here:

https://pomoplanner.app/my-year

The yearly planner is an addition to another project I've made last year: PomoPlanner.app a pomodoro-based daily planner. With the Yearly Planner, I wanted to provide a way to focus more on the long-term objectives and not just the day-to-day objectives.

Let me know your thoughts, I'd be happy to know if this can be of use to anyone.

If you want to support this project, you can give it an upvote on Product Hunt:

I will tell you what. He probably would have liked to have a girlfriend more than to hang around a bunch of kids in their early twenties treating him like their baby brother, no matter how smart he was.

How do you read the room when trying to pitch something or speak persuasively in a more than 1on1 setting over zoom? The real answer is “you can’t“. For me personally after two years of doing this it’s still pretty much impossible to have an effective design discussion on contentious topic with a group over 2. What used to take 1 hour now takes xN where N is number of people on the call.

I see it with other people too for example when someone keeps rambling on and on much more often than used to be acceptable in person. You can certainly adjust to not be irritated by it but still doesn’t make it fluent and natural conversation

This article is technically shallow, not giving any detail about the protocol but instead just quoting supposed experts opinion about it.

How do you reconcile this with the alleged increased used security? I know that everything relying on TLS for security is already just theatre in practice but still.

Knowing only Google and/or other $big_corp will influence those evolutions, this does not strike me as a benefit either. I can wait before facing wire level DRM enforcement, for instance.
People really struggle to recognize context. I assume most people who are getting so upset about pg’s tweet are reading it as “business plans are stupid. Balance sheets are stupid. No company should ever make one because no one should ever read it. Anyone who reads one is stupid.”

It should be implied that his advice is only relevant the type of investing which pg does.

pg tweeted later on that his solution is something he does in YC interviews. So his comments are obviously scoped to companies which would apply to YC.

Persona is Persona, Job is a Job (as in JTBD).

Products are answering Jobs, and the same Persona/Consumer may have multiple Jobs, depending on the context.

Consumer->Job->Product

Naive solution is:

Consumer->Product

but the JTBD method makes implicit—explicit and makes invisible—visible.
That sucks - sorry to hear you are struggling. I’ve also been there most of my life - and it got much worse over time. But if it helps, here’s what I’ve done to get a handle on it — I wish I had found this out sooner.

First and foremost is to find a talk therapist who will work with you long term on helping you develop a mental mapping of your emotions to your physiology. When you are feeling an emotion, there is a corresponding physiological change throughout your body. The key here is that when you find yourself obsessing or avoiding or focusing on other people’s problems instead of your own, you will begin to notice the physical correlations in your own body. You will learn to use breathing techniques to notice your mental states. Emotions like despair, vulnerability, resentment, shame, guilt, etc all have physical correlations. As you begin to map the language of emotions to your physiology, you will begin to find ways to short-circuit these patterns through physical regulation and asserting emotional boundaries with your family.

The most important aspect of this… you will discover that regulating your body and your environment is the same as regulating your mind. The harder you push your body physically, the less you will feel mentally adrift or obsessing over external information to contain your emotions. Your attentional willpower will improve in parallel to your physical confidence and you will choose to care for your self.

Some other practical basic tips to self-regulate

Find some activity that keeps you centered on your own body - hard exercise, yoga or physical games are best — gardening and hiking are good too. AVOID all activities where you are constantly cognitively systematizing information. As an Information Age worker, you MUST take regular breaks for 5-10 min each hour - especially when you are in the hyperfocused productive zone. Go for a walk or do some pushups or yoga. You also cannot sacrifice sleep to the obsessive mind — if you can’t sleep or don’t have the will to sleep go do some physical activity.

Info Hygiene is key

Delete most non-utility apps on your phone and turn on time limits/screen time. Unplug from real-time digital media in your life - especially interactive media. Email and forums are fine - but not as realtime activities - check them at 2-3 fixed times each. Reading and writing are fine - but set limits.

Hope this helps. Good luck

Brazil has WhatsApp pay
Only slightly related, but a story from back when pay phones were still a common thing.

My first or second year of high school I lived in a rural town in Washington state with very little to do. But it was also a tourist destination. In the summer me and my friends would just sit around downtown (this was 1 street with a 4 way stop) trying to figure out what to do with our days. One day the pay phone was randomly ringing and we picked it up.

It was two girls, near our age, who were also bored and had written down the number of that pay phone and were randomly calling it. They were from out of town (if they lived there we'd have known them, it was that small of a place) and staying at their grandfathers funky vacation home just a couple of miles away.

We ended up meeting up with them and got up to all sorts of trouble that summer. We were friends for years and years after. I'm still occasionally in touch with one of them, over 25 years later.

Just a completely random way to meet some new friends that I can't imagine happening anymore.
I agree completely. And often more frequent.

It is great that people don't like online meetings. It means less meetings.

I have had very enjoyable online meetings, when the meeting is useful.

If you are having meetings all day, if that is your job, I can see how it is annoying. But that isn't most people.
Tl;dr: We coded a kernel mostly in Go. It worked OK for what we tried.

Calling Go "high-level" is absurd. Apparently the authors are using the word in place of "garbage-collected", as if that had anything to do with a level. Go is by quite a margin the lowest-level obligate-GC language I know of. (That does not, by the way, mean I think it is "bad".)
Machining Waveguides for 122 GHz Operation Is Delicate Work
To be honest, I think this is a sign that the company really isn't experimenting, and probably won't figure out how to stay fully remote post-pandemic.

The best thing my company did was host a single "async week". Absolutely no video calls, only async. A lot of communication shifted after that week.

For example, my group has eradicated "round robin" calls, where individuals share their status or whatever. Instead, you create a card on a doc that's mostly a kanban board. That card just links to notes in another doc. So... we basically have an agenda system that: a.) keeps regular meetings on point quickly, and b.) keeps notes of what's been decided. We wouldn't have figured this out without ripping off the band-aid and forcing everyone to do it differently for a week.

I would phrase it a little differently: it seems more to me like an ego-saving excuse for being a sad sack and not accomplishing anything you want to do.
I’m sure they’ve thought about it, but I’m also curious about the risk of coupling an OTC medical device to the implementation details of a smartphone. Apple never intended the iPhone’s haptics or camera to be used this way, and could change them with a soft update at any time. Seems risky to trust the results without owning the supply chain or at least having guarantees.
I've looked at several startup business plans and financial models. Not one has turned out to be even close to reality a few years later. At the early stages, the numbers are pure fantasy.
5 years after most people were not aware of crypto, maybe ever later than that. The stage of something can't be determined by a number of years.

I don't think a "business plan" is literally just any words, written down, that are related to "business".

It is likely a specific and defined thing.
