I haven't read this article, but a few days ago another article was explaining how Russian air tactics are different from the US ones, and how they see the air power in a war, which is something you're not considered in your explanations.

The gist was that the US goes immediately for dominating the sky. Russia sees ground forces as the main engine of the army, and the Air Force only supports the advancement of ground forces near the border, without bombing far into enemy territory (which is a task for the army's missiles).

> Note that both PinePhone and pmOS have yet to reach "daily driver" status

Meh, I don't find such blanket statements compelling.

My Pinephone is a perfectly good "daily driver": I use it for phone calls, SMS, email, scanning QR codes, displaying QR codes (train tickets, parcel deliveries, etc.), Web browsing, etc.

People also said the same thing about OpenMoko, yet that was my "daily driver" for a decade.

> An example of too much minimalism would be failing to implement UI pagination and your UI falling over with more than 20 objects, because you didn’t think about the use case. Maybe you haven’t thought about scale-out or upgrades or you can install on only one operating system. A serious buyer can sniff out this incompleteness and won’t take you seriously, and only serious domain experience can fill in these gaps. You can’t expect your buyer to be like “hey, nice try with this prototype but I can tell this won’t scale to more than 20 objects”. They are looking to you to be the expert.

IME this part is completely wrong, unless it's defining "serious buyer" in such a way that most of your market isn't one.

> Time is short, funding is short (especially if you are running on your own money), and you don’t want to waste time.

> Your company shouldn’t be in search of a business model, you should know what you need to build. Wait until you see the exact right thing, because you are about to put too much of your lifeforce into it, and if you don’t, you have a much harder road ahead. You want to know it will work, and this requires cultivated instinct. When the time is right and you know enough, that’s when you decide to have a product.

Ok so what is the author advocating doing until then? Sitting around twiddling your thumbs until inspiration strikes?

The whole point of the MVP is: build just enough to find out whether this is a viable business or not. And nothing in the article seems to be contrary to that. It's a whole lot of words but the only advice seems to be to have better instincts (how?) and just make a better product bro.

I think everybody has been surprised by just how bad Russia is doing. They have been overestimated by magnitudes, it seems. Their gear is in a much worse condition than anybody would have guessed, they have logistical problems all over the place etc.

This is not a reason to relax, but one can certainly observe that.
I don't think ranking based on upvotes, downvotes, or other forms of engagement is necessarily terrible, but it's certainly nothing to do with "market value", and misleading to suggest that it is.

If you want to create a way of ranking websites and call it "SocialRank", or "EngagementRank", that's fine, although see below.

However, users would have to be aware of the severe limitations. You've already highlighted some of the problems with social content: it's often spammy, low effort, clickbait, poorly written, misleading, or outright false.

The quality of the search engine and ranking algorithm is going to be judged by the quality of the results it returns, which I'd imagine will be pretty trashy in this case.
Ten years ago today thatgamecompany released Journey. I was the art director
I joined a pre-IPO unicorn 9 months ago, and am having very serious doubts about my compensation now. Given the direction the public markets are going, there is no way companies will be going IPO in the next few years. Even if the company goes public in a few years, it will take a while for the markets to climb to the exuberant levels they were at when the fair-market-value for the stock options were determined.

Now, I have to do the hard maths of if I want to stick around with my comp being stuck for years, or head to greener pastures after my 1 year vesting cliff.

Ask HN: What is the best book on the climate problem and solutions?
Hey HN!

Asking here as I trust your judgement.

What's the best and objective book for understanding climate change, the main sources of carbon and feasibility of potential solutions?

Thanks!
I think superyachts are too "tax-efficient" to be thought about in such simple terms.
Even if it is legal, it's still morally problematic.

The point is no about the persons you want to pay, but because you send dollars to a country that needs these dollars to sustain its war to Ukraine.

Of course, the EU sends €1B ... per day to Russia to pay for its petroleum and natural gas. As if we could not drastically cut our energy use if we wanted to.

Many will protest that it is indeed impossible but Covid has shown that confining whole countries for three weeks is possible ; it has also shown that the EU could find €1 trillion to save its economy - a sum that was said to be impossible to find to save the planet from climate dereliction and collapse of biodiversity.

If the EU stopped suddenly paying Russia, the war in Ukraine would be shortened for certain. That would imply of course to share the available energy between the EU countries ; our politicians are really fierce on helping Ukraine - except if it impacts our economies. I'm ashamed as an European, really.

NB: yes, I do realize the EU level of dependency towards Russia. Yes, that would be difficult. But that's the price to show the world that we are really to fight for democracy.

Putin thought he could invade Ukraine because of his perception of our lack of will to fight for democracy, precisely. He was not wrong: it's only the Ukrainians' incredible spirit of resistance that forced the West to really oppose it with supplies of weapons and sanctions. Had the Ukrainians not resisted that well, it would have been like Crimea.

China is watching. We must do more in the EU and close all the pipelines from Russia.

Your company shouldn’t be in search of a business model, you should know what you need to build.

This is exactly what killed my first startup. We believed we fully understood what the customer needs and that we should build the right product before we started selling. We were actually trying to build the minimum viable product, but we were hilariously (with hindsight) wrong about what the customers wanted. Almost all our ideas were just wrong enough to make the product fail to solve the customers pains. They solved the pains we'd had in the past brilliantly, but sadly that wasn't relevant. We weren't buying our product.

Starting out with the notion that you already know everything you need to know will kill your startup. Running a startup is as much about spotting and understanding the signals that you discover along the way as it is about building what you think you customers need.

A minimum viable product is not "selling the least effort product you can get away with", it's spending the least amount of time you can to build something that you can use to gather more data than you can use to focus your product on what the customer wants rather than what you think they want. Building what you think the customer wants will very likely be wrong - customers lie, they're deluded, they don't understand their own problems, and they can't see value in solutions. But they do start to understand the problem when they see a solution to it, even if it's the minimum viable solution. And then they start having ideas about what else they can pay for to make it better...

I mostly used Tensorflow and I'm curious what makes PyTorch models easier to implement?
With Tensorflow 2 you get the Keras API which is really easy to use.
There's nothing half-assed about gcc nested functions - they work exactly as they should. The problem is that the feature was implemented back when runtime constraints were very different - in particular, there were no limits on dynamic codegen, not even on the stack. Using thunks for callbacks was a common technique back then - and why not, given the perf benefits? On top of that, ironically, it was also the only way pointers to nested functions could be transparently compatible with the C ABI.

So I don't think your criticism is valid in this case. It's more a general problem with all language extensions, and how they interplay with language evolution.
I find it utterly implausible that these filters have any substantial effect on NOx. There are specialized filters consisting of large beds of modified carbon that will remove NO2. Regular activated carbon AFAICT does not, and these recirculating stove filters do not have massive filters.

I would believe they remove particulates and odors, and that’s about it.
I cannot because I don't have a subscription (it's quite expensive and for my needs I only need to buy it few times a year).

I can tell you this though:

- Brands buy paid guest posts on "established" sites. (Using a stuffed keyword for their money site, service or whatever.)

- They wait until Google indexes their sponsored post.

- They then go ahead and buy links that link to the sponsored post instead of their service / brand site.

- The idea is that they can avoid a penalty in long-term. And Google largely looks past it because the sites doing such tactics (buying hundreds of private network links) are still on page 1 of Google results.

Past a certain point (5,000+ referring domains?) Google isn't going to penalize your site because it can't differentiate between legitimate or spammy links, or even care for matter[0]. Though the internals on the algorithm are very scarce in this regard.

If you do use the tool (Ahrefs) you have full freedom to analyze sites you suspect are doing shitty tactics. And you will find inconsistencies like the one I mentioned above. Needless to say, because Ahrefs is a crawler, it can be blocked and I imagine quite a few blackhat networks do this to avoid further detection.

Lastly, this is a big problem for smaller niches / keywords because all you need is 20-30 links pointing towards an article and Google will assume you have a PhD on that topic.

If that is all you can say, I don't think we should interact ever again. Reads like standard US propaganda. Must be nice living in that one dimensional world
The point is that this is not a linear transform. To make the captured raw data look like a normal photo, a number of steps need to happen and several of those steps are about tricking human brains into believing the photo matches what your eyes would have perceived. These steps aren't actually linear because of a dynamic range mismatch between your eyes, the camera sensor and the output medium (screen and paper).

It's a game of fitting the captured scene with e.g. 11 stops of dynamic range to an output medium that has maybe 5 or 6 stops of dynamic range in order to trick human eyes with closer to 20 stops of dynamic range into believing what it sees on the print is "real/plausible". That is of course a very subjective process that involves a lot of choices regarding how to shape your curves and compress the available data.

Additionally, human brains do "funny" things with colors and actually re-construct/imagine things that aren't there. Getting the white balance and color grading "right" is another set of steps and what is right depends both on the conditions under which you capture the scene as under which conditions you view the end result.

Most phone cameras and in camera processing software algorithms for all of this that produce a certain look that is pleasing under most circumstances. But those are basically just a hard coded interpretation of the raw data. The point of post processing is having finer control over that process and the ability to use more expensive/better algorithms.

MVP is tool like any other. It might be used well (to validate an idea) or may be used poorly (to implement semi-functional piece of software, which is strictly worse than the peers).

There's also nothing wrong with pivoting, because while you may implement working businesses case, along the way you may discover one, that's better for you and your customers. Of course it can be used in pathological manner as any tool again.

I think, that what should be definitely busted in IT(or maybe in general?) is easily talking in absolutes (OOP best/bad, functional programming best/bad, k8s best/bad).

Everything depends on the context. Especially would be great to see that altitude from members of academia, because they influence a lot of young engineers.
Wouldn't engineering encompass the communication and expectations? When you design a skyscraper, you need to know what sorts of loads is expected on each floor, any height restrictions in the area (are there airplanes around?), etc. When you design a literal engine, you need to know if you're optimizing for weight or power or raw RPMs.

Perhaps you're using the word "engineering" as a synonym of "implementation" (which could work); I'd have thought it was more "design" though (in a technical sense, though I'm sure it might cover some of the aesthetic sense too).
So if I write a recursive function to calculate factorial of a number (or some permutation calculator), will that be considered a pattern? Because Python3 wouldn't have the factorial built-in. Thank you for the explanation above.

Yeah it has go kinda same way as "agile", where people use both terms without understanding what it actually means and how to implement those. But that does not mean that "agile" or "MVP" is death and you should not use those.

Little’s Law, Scalability and Fault Tolerance: The OS Is Your Bottleneck
I feel like it's objectively not working and this is coming from someone who's spent a good amount of time on both TikTok and YouTube Shorts. TikTok has an actual community of original content creators and people trying to remix content that other's have made using sounds, duets, and stitches. YouTube is mostly reposted TikTok content (which loses context due to the lack of sounds, duets, etc.) and clip aggregators who just repost clips from popular memes/viral videos/TV shows. They aren't even in the same ballpark in terms of quality.

Believe it or not I sympathize with the generic Russian citizen's autonomy and interest for retaining their own identity and culture. It's a tremendous shame all this has happened. As a Finn, we could have a great country right next to our border with something completely culturally unique and different from your average European country, which more and more meld culturally into a generic Euro-American amalgamation, indistiguishable from each other.

Instead it's turned into a nightmare dictatorship which has now ruined everything above and more importantly has potential life-threatening consequences to me personally and my country.

There is nothing here but sorrow for everyone involved.

I tested a BL20X, had to tweak the WAN connection buffer size every few days when the speeds change with cellular and landline, the latency would be very high, a constant ~500ms which may not be an issue when streaming video, no issues when using two cellular modems.

Ukraine doesn't have a lot of tanks that they actively use against the invasion ( tanks are of limites utility in pitched defensive battles), so i don't think javelin/nlaw and similar anti-tank weapons are what Russia needs.

Anti-drone and drone equipment makes sense.
