To be honest it's hard for me to imagine alternate reality where the 'original' is not swapped with one of the 'variations' without same comment underneath.
Why is the 'original' good art?
As the others say, talking to a lawyer would be best, but even in situations where there's no written agreement many times there's an agreement in principle that people are bound to.

If they hired you and paid you for work even without an explicit written agreement they do deserve the results of the work for which they paid you for. If that is code that you wrote from directions or ideas that they gave you then that would be the code.

On the other hand if you just spoke about the idea of forming a company and the kind of software that the company would need to develop even with specific ideas around it but they never paid you for work in general you will not owe them any work. Now you still may be bound by certain things such as a copyright for the idea so you can't just go and resell your code or market it on your own. That is all highly dependent on locale and governing laws which a lawyer could help you with.

If money changed hands chances are very high that you are legally bound to deliver some result to them for that money. If it did not change hands and they simply want the result of your work offer to sell it to them. Get a sales agreement for it.
Being a generalist is beneficial in freelancing, since it gives you demonstrated skill in lots of areas. The more areas, the more projects you "qualify" for, since clients want assurance that you can jump right in and be productive. (Also, "getting up to speed quickly in a new language/codebase/whatever" is a useful skill in freelancing, since that is a clear need)

I think people hiring employees frequently don't realize that they need generalists and instead act like they are hiring permanent contractors.
Oh, I assume it's much more expensive than nuclear. Personally, I tend to think of nuclear as renewable, though I guess it's not really; just carbon-neutral.

But even without nuclear I'd think it's viable, albeit expensive. You have to overbuild, add a lot of storage, and interconnect the continent (and maybe northern Africa) with high voltage transmission lines.

Domestically, night time isn't the big deal for Germany. They're 20% wind and only 8.5% solar[0]. They just need to be able to trade their wind output with countries whose wind blows at a different time.

Their geography seems like it would be good for pumped hydro storage, but they only have ~6GW capacity as of 2019[1], so maybe it's not.

This is naïve.

If the Chinese government struck a deal with Mexico (or Canada) to put military units, bases, people, surveillance etc. in those countries, would the US just say "meh, that's their sovereign right"?

We need to be realistic about this, not idealistic.

I’m not sure about the US, but their European service is very transparent on pricing (they offer two different products between the two markets). Some edge cases are generally hard to cover though, especially for unauthenticated users browsing: young driver fees and increased insurance premiums if you’d like a lower deductible.

Even with the terminal, Lithuania still has a 40% Russian gas dependence [0], barely 10% lower than Germany, while Latvia is over 90% dependent on Russian gas.

The matter of fact is that only very few countries in Europe can "afford" to get by without Russian gas or other resources. After all it is the home to the continents largest concentration of natural resources.

There is only so much global production capacity, so much bandwith in terms of logistics, that can compensate for that. It's not like we can suddenly tap a new continent full of resources to replace Russia, reality ain't working like that.

Managed Kubernetes has such low overhead though, and gives you so many options to play with later on (across clouds, on-prem, serverless). Some cloud providers don't even charge you for the control plane, so you're not even paying for the overhead.

If you've got a legacy application that doesn't play nice in containers, I get why you would stay away, but if you're writing something new- it's so easy to take advantage of K8s.
Now it's all about the Eigenenergieverbrauch and avoiding CO2-tax, my friend. Have you heard of Leben mit der Energiewende TV?
That's not to say the code quality is any good, only that it still runs and everyone has their reasons to avoid a rewrite.

True, the fact that it is still running says something, but not overmuch about whether it would be pleasant to maintain, extend or otherwise modify.
"It has come to our attention that you were a keynote speaker for the 2021 American Renaissance Conference earlier this month in Tennessee. Airbnb's community policies prohibit people who are members of or actively associate with known hate groups."

> When I've tried to talk to my manager, he's told me we have to think about how maintainable the project is.

Let me guess your packages aren’t up to date either and no one checks if they’re maintained?

Tell your manager when there are no challenges in the job the most skilled people will leave.
Congrats on making it!, and making it without doing things you didn't like to do! That is truly rate.

You were successful because you have very good product market fit period.

I think of all those did-nots as makeup, some are born with great genes don't need makeup or just basic excercise to look great to be in Hollywood or a model, for some they are good enough that they can make it with loads of makeup and lot of hard work to be in shape, and sadly for many there is no hope to be a model no matter what they do.

Product market fit is like that, you can succeed without it but that requires a really strong fit, most products don't have that strong fit, so the crutches are essential for their success.

The more interesting question for you is with some of those did-nots would have grown to say 20M ARR in the 7 years ?

Maximizing ARR likely is not your goal, you want to create your business and be happy doing only things you like. however when recommending your path to others you need to consider that hypothetical.

its not just hidden price, I've stayed at many hotels that are transparent about their resort fee. IIRC it's a bit of a tax dodge, they're moving the taxable price of the room over to a fee that's not technically for the lodging.
The complex conscious and unconscious behavior can indeed be manipulated by quite simple things (hunger, stimulants, alcohol) but the complexity does not come from the lever that made the change, it's just pushing levers all over the place of your existing feedback cycles which results in much different outcomes.
Overhead. It's still a valid question. Maybe the CEO can answer.
> Russia has the #4 longest coastline of any country with access to many seas.

Yeah but most of those are frozen for some / most / vast majority of the year.

Russia getting warm water ports has been the source of many conflicts, to include Crimea in 2014.
Getting an H1B worker visa requires the hiring company to advertise the open position and assert that no other candidate met the required qualifications.
One of the things I appreciate about Java is a concerned effort to try and "get it right" the first time. Hoping it makes the LTS window, but I'd rather wait to get a great API rather than one that's broken, inconsistent, and has issues.

I just remade it to move away from WordPress. The site is a single PHP file that generates the site based on folders, images, and markdown files. Also pretty proud of the slideshow, though it doesn’t seem to animate properly on all browsers.
This is related to the idea of EPython that we are working on (as we have funding): https://github.com/epython-dev/epython

It currently emits Cython for the C-backend (and PyIodide). It is very alpha currently, but if people are interested in helping, get in touch.
“current capacity” is indeed insufficient, but we’re talking about what ought to be in the future, not about what is in the present.
Some things have been sped up a lot (thanks to the EU), however in some cases bureaucracy still slows down even the simplest document request.
Personal experience: I want to relocate, so last summer I found a new home and quickly paid a 20K Euros non refundable (in case of withdraw) deposit upfront. Unfortunately I later discovered that my own home can't be sold at market value, or to be more accurate to be purchased at market value with an authorized mortgage, because it was originally intended as (can't translate the proper Italian term) roughly half-owned-by-the-state-property which was a formula intended to help poor families to buy their home for cheap in city developing areas during the 80s. I have no resources to buy the new home without selling the old one first, and no intentions of getting into debt for it.

To make it short, if I want to sell my home at market value to someone paying with a mortgage (likely 98% of buyers need one) I have to request some documentation which involves a tax, which in my case amounts to 5K Euros, plus a notary lawyer for documents filling and transmission which cost a few hundreds Euros. All fine and dandy, too bad that the mean time between the document request and when it is being released amounts to 7-8 months! Big WTF... 7-8 months for a fucking stamp on a piece of paper, plus hopefully one record in a database! I filled, paid and sent the request last January, let's see how much time will it need.
I am extremely lucky that the owner of the home I'm buying will wait until next summer, and I'll have to deposit more money to drag it further, or I would have lost all my deposit only because of bureaucracy.

MIPS is pretty similar to RISC-V, but RISC-V is a lot more mature by now. Seems like a reasonable business decision.
Doesn’t sound that bad. They should of course provide more context as to what triggered the email. Since this is most likely fully automated I don’t think the technical solution to that is too far from reality. As a platform as much as I or anyone else might dislike their policies and decisions, it’s unequivocally their call as to what content they want to allow and what not, for any or no reason. I don’t view reaching out to users as a bad thing.
Technically, all programming languages are constrained by what a machine can do (the cpu architecture), to me all programming languages are transpilers, just chose the language that fit best your usecase, and that will allow you to write correct code easly, but always keep in mind that regardless of the language you’re using, you’re still constrained by same machine architecture,
:) reminds me of my first company - I was still in college and we bid for selling computers and printers to the national railways company.

I negotiated for weeks with IBM and HP.

We made our proposal (sealed envelope type).

We won.

One week later HP faxed the railway company that they retracted our "warranty authorization" (or something like that).

We got disqualified.

Another blessed HP partner was supposed to win and HP solved the issue.

I shut off the company and graduated CS.
Some AVX-512 stuff I guess?

AVX-512 had a rough rollout, but it seems like it is finally turning into something nice.
And the answer is "almost never, unless there are formal requirements for the appearance of a hiring process, which companies will tend not to put in place unless legal/contractual/csr obligations around hiring force them into doing or they really don't trust middle managers' ability to promote". Even a charade of a hiring process costs time and money (and much more so than an RFP process)

Even organisations like universities that have formal requirements to advertise [certain positions] externally will stick to doing the minimum allowable (which might be a poorly written and overly demanding job spec put up on the org's own careers page for the shortest allowable time and any responses binned) if they've actually already made the decision.

Of course there's also a tendency of people to confuse the charade with the more common case of a position being genuinely open and contested and an internal or existing relationship candidate applying (and sometimes but definitely not always being favoured), especially if they just missed out on a job after thinking their final interview went well...
The DALL-E replicas on hugging face are not sophisticated enough to generate credibly realistic images of the kind that would generate bad PR. I suspect the moment it becomes possible for a pedophile to request, and receive, a photorealistic image of a child being abused there will be bad PR for whatever company facilitates it. Or consider someone who wants to generate and distribute explicit photos of someone else without their permission.

Is it a legal issue? I'm not sure, though I believe that cartoon child porn is not legal in the US (or is at least a legal gray area). Regardless, I sympathize with OpenAI not wanting to enable such behavior.
Outside of HN, publications like the NYT/Buzzfeed/etc, and maybe far-left twitter, crypto isn't hated that much. So what seems like woo-woo tech to you, in reality is a fairly valid crypto project. I think HN's hatred towards crypto is borderline irrational, and will likely be similar to the infamous dropbox launch comment over the next decade.
There has already been some progress (https://www.reuters.com/business/energy/germany-made-progres... ):

"Habeck said imports of Russian oil now accounted for 25% of German imports, down from 35% before the invasion, and gas imports have been cut to 40% from 55%. Russian hard coal imports were down to 25% from 50% before the invasion."
For what it is worth - I write Fortran professionally (in some of the use cases you describe) and I doubt its usefulness.

The way I see it, Fortran exists today because of inertia, not because it still has technical superiority.

These mountains of Fortran code represent decades of investment and undocumented "features" that you could never code around during a rewrite.

And so today, new code is bolted on, with a prayer that nothing breaks, may god have mercy on your soul.
My favorite trap in all of this, is that this thinking will fail most tech interviews. It is incredibly frustrating.
Interesting, yes, but I went to the link, and browsed the 'generated artwork' and all if it was subjectively inferior to the original that it generated from. Every single piece. So I am not sure what the 'value' in it is, at this stage.

As far as the text driven, I would have to mess with some non pre-canned presentations to see how useful it was.
The Salzgitter AG certainly thinks hydrogen is the way to go.
I used to have a rule for my sales team:

Never respond to an RFP you did not write.

Most naive salespeople would complain about it and point out how ethics rules prevented vendors from writing RFPs. I'd then point out the similarities in the RFP to the competitors product descriptions on their websites and documentation.
In what world is a $2,000 deposit to rent a car normal? I’ve never deposited north of $300. Ever. In any country in the world. Including when I decline coverage. Including when I present local identification to the branch (which flags theft risk).

What a weird thing to normalize given how exclusionary it is to the vast majority of the world’s population. Though I guess we are talking about car rental via a smartphone, so we’re already somewhere on the exclusionary spectrum.

Rental companies figured out the actuarial model for what they do some time ago. If Turo is hitting you with $2,000 to take the vehicle, they have no clue how to model risk and are probably arrogant about their approach compared to the staid, boring incumbents. Either that or they just don’t have enough volume to spread the risk. Or are you renting a $250k vehicle every time?
If you just want to know what files have changed, there's no reason to scan all metadata - you'd just want to scan all the inodes (and we'd need to add a version number field to the inode itself that covers all the contents; easily done). And since just prior to snapshots inodes have backpointers back to dirents, so given an inode we can easily get a path.

So yeah, that would be easy and a lot faster than what rsync does. Dunno about plumbing to anything in userspace, that's outside the scope of what I can think about right now. But if anyone wanted to work on such a feature, I'd happily help them get started.
Did they give you money? or some other kind of payment?
Agree, I loved it without it and that single one ruined it. You put it perfectly.
What do you mean? It’s a paper written by several people on the standard committee of who contributed to the draft standard, on which blog would they put it?

Traditionally, these things were published in ACM SIGPLAN Fortran Forum (or on NAG’s servers for historical reasons). Arxiv is really natural, given the direction scientific and technical publishing is taking. This is a heavy duty language used by scientists and people like mechanical and nuclear engineers. Not the latest JavaScript framework or full stack doodad from Google.
I believe in free software but I do not like GNU and FSF zealotry.

See: https://www.gnu.org/distros/common-distros.html

"Debian also maintains a repository of nonfree software. According to the project, this software is 'not part of the Debian system,' but the repository is hosted on many of the project's main servers, and people can readily find these nonfree packages by browsing Debian's online package database and its wiki."

So Debian isn't kosher because it's too easy to load non-free software?
I'm not a programmer so I can't practically exercise my user freedoms.

If I was a programmer, I also couldn't practically exercise my user freedoms for most of the software I use. Maybe one programmer could maintain a fork of vim, but it takes a small company to maintain a true fork of larger projects like Firefox, Chromium, and LibreOffice.

If you want control over your workflow, a program with a stable extensions API will go a lot farther than a free software license.

I prefer free software because it is gratis and doesn't spy on me.

Anyone here with some experience single-handedly maintaining a fork of a large project?
Short answer: nope. Long answer: I haven't found Twitch to be suitable as a platform and I think it's because I aged out of the demographic it is targeting. I have attempted to watch live coding streams, competitive gaming, casual gaming, and even some streams that my friends do. Nothing seems to keep me attentive. I find the chat is mostly flooded with nonsense. I'm impressed that streamers can interact well with a lively chat. In the off chance the streamer is doing something interesting to me - they'll interrupt it by interacting with chat.

Higher level you may want to focus on what a great educator does when teaching. A big part of being a good educator is understanding the different ways that people learn and accommodating for each of them. I think? If you can leverage Twitch's chat system to help groups that learn differently you might have more impact. (Personally I would want an educator to present ideas and get through fully-thought out concepts before taking questions and interacting with chat).
his sense of vanity?
Is there a particular advantage to how this is done here with Deno or is this just an example of server side rendering being possible in Deno? The latter is fine as I'm a fan of Deno :) just missing why it's such a popular post (maybe more Deno fans?)
Just because you wrote it, doesn't mean you'll always win it. I've been involved in cases where we had pretty much designed and sold in the project and basically wrote the RFP and then some other company came along offered to do it at a significantly lower price.

Europe is windier in the winter, so if you choose a week in the summer, they're all going to be low. This is not unknown or unexpected. It's also neatly complemented by solar which has the opposite yearly cycle:

More speed equals less stopping power and control and more injury and death. Period. I agree speed should not be our only focus regarding road safety and speed limits should be increased. But let's not play make-believe about the dangers of driving faster.

Oh yeah, a blog. Really keeping up with the times there compared to a paper.
As a recently recognised Italian citizen, I have to agree--it's not the appropriate place to form a startup.

There's a surprising number of things that involve the legal system, and the legal system moves at a glacial pace--in some cases, taking months between when a ruling becomes final and when it becomes enforceable. Encounter any one of those situations, and it's going to be a huge time & resource drain for the company.

Perhaps it'd make sense to headquarter the startup in a more favourable country (Estonia?) and then have a major branch office in Italy (for climate and talent reasons).
