I heard it said that OpenGL drivers are essentially run-time compilers :) Working on a driver like this would not actually involve much knowledge of graphics. It's more an exercise of careful spec interpretation and deep knowledge of hardware-level interface.

Have a read through https://fgiesen.wordpress.com/2011/07/09/a-trip-through-the-... and see if you'd find that space interesting to work in.

> Sure, that means you can no longer access your self-hosted stuff when you're out of the house, but the tradeoff is peace of mind about your data leaking or worse.

Lots of things I'd consider self-hosting are functionally useless if I can't access them from my phone while out and about.

I could put my phone on a VPN, but that's just another layer of complexity to add to the self-hosting process.

Hard truth: vulkan is so lean, it almost does not need any shared code between hardware vulkan drivers.
You conveniently ignored this part of my first sentence: "...all financial vehicles for savers have been gutted." The line about hedging inflation was just a supporting detail for my main idea.

And your assertion that TIPS funds lags inflation doesn't hold water. Again, go compare the past year of inflation vs VIPSX. They don't track. By simply being a market traded product, a TIPS fund has speculation built into the price. Which, I'm arguing, is against the best interest of the average person just trying to save for their future.
I agree, and would like to highlight two differences in social network structure that help lead to HN being a more civil place than Reddit beyond just the qualities of the user-ships:

*1. Restricted comment downvoting*

A user must achieve a not-insignificant amount of karma before they can access the downvote-comment feature.

*2. Lack of emphasis on notifications, especially regarding comment replies*

This is huge! It must certainly decrease engagement in the short run to continue with the status quo, compared to Reddit notifying the user of every reply via every protocol available to them. You have to seek out a reply to your comment, which requires you to write something worth responding to. It reduces Poe’s law significantly. I would actively oppose notifications being integrated into news.ycombinator.com - the apps and readers can do as they please. Wonderful balance, thank Guthix.

I wonder what, if any, correlation exists between a low credit score and sleep deprivation. It’s not difficult to imagine that someone having trouble paying the bills also has trouble getting enough sleep.
This is an overly-cynical take. As any lawyer can confirm, settlements almost ALWAYS contain non-disclosure clauses. The reason is that they cost the plaintiff nothing to sign, and provide the defendant with a limitation of any knock-on liability.

It's just totally standard. You can think of it many ways. A settlement can be published in the newspaper causing bad PR for the company, even if they've fixed the issue. It can motivate copy-cat plaintiffs to stage fake "incidents" to try to extort money from the company. It can also cause regulatory inquiries and/or investigations. It can cause other companies to make legal claims on tangentially related issues they might have with the defendant.

You'd be amazed what paper thin lawsuits are filed sometimes. Keeping settlements private is just absolutely normal to keep the vultures away.
Thanks for the link. All the examples look pretty simple and only use straight line connectors. We're building a no-code for HR platform, so the diagrams are large and really need curved connectors to maximise use of the space.

That's a tautology saying "Don't make mistakes."

A DNS misconfiguration can cause your Let's Encrypt to do weird things on a configuration that was (and still is) perfectly correct.

That was how I hit it. I eventually figured out what people screwed up in DNS. But certificates still didn't clear. So I spent an extra couple hours staring at DNS trying to figure out what I missed when the issue was that we bumped into the rate limit at Let's Encrypt (which is REALLY low--I think 5 failures is enough to trip it) while the DNS was bad and the only thing we could do was sit around for a week with dead certificates.

Not fun.

And if you make school tests easier, everyone will get a passing a grade, but that’s not the point.

The point here is that responsibility is not an area specific skill, people who are financially responsible, tend to drive responsibly, people who are reckless drivers, tend to be reckless spenders too.

SystemVerilog is too expressive. It has more language features and syntax than anything else by an order of magnitude. So insanely complicated.

I can't see anything dethroning it without multivendor support though. Verilator is not enough - you need GUI tools, formal, coverage, etc. and that pretty much means you're stuck with SV.

And the last example from the article, a tetrasubstituted cyclobutane, probably tells you that the functional groups connected to the cyclobutane could alleviate some of the ring strain in plain cyclobutane.

Similarly, cyclopropane also has incredible ring strain and likely won't be found in nature, but plenty of derivatives can.

Hey HN: Kaveh here, founder of www.usage.ai (we help companies cut AWS spend automatically)

We've heard from users that engineers don't like having yet-another-dashboard they need to remember to check periodically. This is our attempt at making AWS cost savings even easier: You can instantly approve new cost savings without leaving Slack!

In the future, we'd like to develop an even deeper Slack integration so that engineers can interact and ask questions about the cost savings recommendations Usage makes.

Funny my take reverses the political assignments.

I see many left-wing commentators such as Ibram X. Kendi as (almost) inclined to think something like "black people have been oppressed for centuries so we should let black people win all the time in small claims court."

The pattern for right-wing commentary that gets flagged on hacker news is that it pre-supposes it is possible to do moral accounting to six decimal places. It's a horrible crime you know that Bill Gates only captures 98% of what he deserved from Microsoft, Matt Taibbi will remind you how long the list of small accumulated grievances is that have to be addressed before his tribe will ever listen to a leftist, never mind somebody who thinks you should get vaccinated or sometimes wear a mask. The offense these people take at affirmative action has underneath it the idea that candidate A has 111.313 units of merit and has to be chosen over candidate B with 111.312 units of merit.

That kind of thinking is so exhausting because it precludes meaningful answers like "Crypto is a scam" that will save an endless examination of details that ends only when people dump another bucket of details on your desk.
Spotify doesn't disclose their pay cut so I have to assume Google is still getting their cut of revenue, maybe 25% with payment processor fees taken into account instead of 30%, since they surely wouldn't want to set a precedent of any digital content app being able to not pay for the OS/platform by simply adding their own payment method (otherwise Epic wouldn't have needed their lawsuit).

> Many corp email smtp servers will IP block your email server (big thanks to spamhaus)

Nope.

Spamhaus doesn't block self-hosted email servers. Spamhaus just publishes a number of lists, which postmasters can use or not, whether for filtering or just for scoring. The PBL in particular is likely to catch people self-hosting from a retail connection, because it lists most residential IP address-space.

But it's the receiving mailserver that does the blocking, not Spamhaus.

And it's down to the policies of the receiver's postmaster what lists are used and how they are used. That requires judgement and research, and some postmasters lack the former or don't have time for the latter.

I'm into scale military models, not railroads, but it's the same thing at heart.

The "rockstar modeler" phenomenon they're talking about here is amusing and very real, because if you're not into it you might not realize modeling is such a closeted hobby. Almost every modeler I know (all of whom, through the internet), makes every effort to avoid telling anyone about the hobby, and we all do it instinctively. It's funny because it's not like model-makers are some classically oppressed group, but we certainly act like we are. Maybe its childhood trauma lurking deep in our subconscious. Maybe it's just cognitive dissonance between who we really are, and the face we present to the world. I don't know.

But anyway, that's the sort of deeper significance to this article, and why it's so funny (or cool, for some of us) to have rockstars of all people who are into modeling.
> most states make it illegal for determining insurance premiums.

That's surprising to me given all of the other ways credit scores are used. Is there a rational reason to allow credit scores to be factored into hiring decisions but not insurance premiums? Or is this just the law being messy and inconsistent in reality?
Bipolar here. When I was diagnosed, though not in a FAANG, and asked for accommodation HR, my managers and company owners went against me and fired me. They didn't care about my diagnosis and was against the law but they preferrer to pay me off with a severance agreement and let me go than to understand what mental illness is about.

TBH I don't blame them. This shit is really hard to grasp even to my self. Therefore I only have one very good advice: fake it and never ever tell anyone about it. Not even your friends, less your coworkers.

Mental illnesses are not even understood at medical or research level. I honestly believe this can only be understood by very well trained professionals or anyone who experience the symptoms themselves or from a very close relative. It's really hard to be compassionate with this stuff.

My advice again, keep your mouth shut up, fake it and have a list of very good excuses. Say you have cancer, idk, anything will be better than going out with the mental illness. It's a path of no return and can very well kill all growth in your career as people will talk and place red flags you can't remove thereafter.

Life is way more important than our jobs. Don't try to push more than you physically can, even if you believe you can archive more (specially in mania phase).

Good luck, hope you are doing as well as you can.
This was my thinking as well and moreover, since the Ruble is so low you get a ton of Rubles for little Euros currently. If the contracts were in Rubles it is a disadvantage for Russia if the contracts were in Euro it should not matter. What is the scenario were Russia is better off with this move?

Google made the same decision as Apple when they removed Fortnite in response to Epic Games completely bypassing the store's in-app purchasing flow, thus losing their 30% revenue cut, so the motivation is likely not 'to make Apple look bad'.

This is probably just a good show of faith to regulators while Google still collects their percentage of subscription revenue from Spotify on the backend.
An attacker compromising your desktop would ordinarily -also- need to compromise a second device like a Yubikey or a phone.

Regularly exposing 2FA secrets in plan text to the system memory of your (potentially compromised) endpoint defeats a lot of the point of 2FA. If an attacker can access the secret they can generate unlimited codes. Even if all they can do is change the system clock they can get codes valid in the future.

I really wish dangerous advice like this would stop getting upvoted.

Also, TOTP is phishable, so never use it if more secure methods like FIDO2 are supported on a service.

Cruise missiles are too expensive for Russia to keep using (and are among the cheapest of long-range missiles).

To destroy large swaths of Ukraine, Russia needs to march its artillery, be it MLRS systems or 162mm Howitzers, within firing range of city areas. The Ukrainian forces have largely repelled these advances.

MLRS systems and 162mm Howitzers "only" have 30km range or so. Sure, Russia has longer-range systems, but they're clearly trying to get these cheaper artillery systems within firing range of Kyiv (and other cities).

The Ukrainians have pushed back and have stalled the progress. Keeping those systems at least 50km away from the Kyiv center will prevent the worst of attacks that Russia can afford to launch.

--------

Given what Russia is doing to Mariupol, its clear that they don't mind razing entire cities to the ground with these kinds of artillery strikes. The key for the Ukrainians moving forward are to keep the Russian line away from artillery strike range.

Used to be niche here as well, but nowadays it's a useful tool, especially with the modern banking apps. It also has really cool and free year-long worldwide travel insurance, something that would cost me a lot of money otherwise. And I get discounts for using it to pay for hotels and car rentals and accumulate airline miles with every purchase.

Really, we in EU get all the good features with none of the bad things that the US people suffer from. I recommend to ask your bank about their available deals.

In the banking app, I was watching my credibility directly affect the loan offers available to me in real time. I got my interest rate down to half of the usual deal (which is based on my income and expenses) after a year of paying back on time. It really pays off.

The snarky answer is "literally all of them", but one real answer is that I've been pretty happy with GCP's status reporting for the past year-ish I've used them. I've only noticed a few incidents, but every time I've checked the status it was already updated. They also occasionally provide workarounds on the live incident pages if you need to be back up before the issue is fixed on their end.

If the original text used what was already considered an archaic or rarefied register at its time of composition (as is often true of various classical works, indeed this is often basically what a "classical language" means), then a translator, in the process of trying to convey the original author's tone and intent, might choose to do the same in the target language.

Smoother but far less secure. Now any malware on your machine gets an unlimited free pass at your TOTP codes and can even change your system clock to get codes valid in the future.

To be fair Authy stores all TOTP secrets in plain text on the phone so it is pretty awful too. Use Yubico authenticator, Ledger, or Trezor for TOTP when you must use TOTP but more importantly use FIDO2 whenever you have the choice.
This describes my employers too. I work with people in 3-4 different offices on a daily basis. My boss is in another state. Yet the engineering leadership is pushing us to come back to the office. I don't want to waste time and money driving downtown every day. They set a goal of everyone working most days a week in the office in about 6 months.

So that's 6 months to find a better job. The latest silly things is they moved from an office with free parking into one that costs around $20 a day, and it's no longer free. Most of us will have to drive or double our commute times. This seems fairly ham handed to me.
