I found this exchange super helpful in understanding what Radiopaper is:
https://radiopaper.com/conversation/K5opCylqOizaZ0HQCB5Q/ots...

This feels like something that would be hard to get traction with, but hats off on trying to do something different and thinking through what social could be. Also, love the design and UX - great stuff!
> One could argue that, unless there is a mechanism by which OP can make use the camera without agreeing to the unexpected contract, OP has been a victim of false advertising.

That seems unlikely. My layman's understanding is that you have to purchase the hardware and license the software, and the two are considered distinct items. The hardware is entirely capable of what was promised, but OP will either have to agree to the terms of the software or create their own.

That exists in a lot of markets. Phones are advertised running OS' that require EULA's, computers are marketed running OS' and apps that require other EULA's, etc. I think my car even has an EULA on it.

It feels bad when there realistically isn't an alternative like there are with phone or computer OS', but I don't think there's anything legally different.
There is nothing wrong with BASIC or turtle graphics. Those would probably be awesome places to start at least for a few sessions. Google for online turtle graphics or basic or emulators.

The main thing is that he finds something that is interesting and approachable. Build up small achievements. Let him start with simple examples and then figure out how to change colors or the number of iterations in a loop. Don't rush too many things at once. Some things that seem simple like recursion may actually take a bit of time to grasp solidly. Encourage him to be patient and persistent and expect challenges like that.

Don't try to pile on too many things at once.

Dictating which language etc. is not going to help him learn programming.

He needs to be motivated by something and generating his own questions and Google searches.

If he is waiting for you to tell him what to do then your job is to train him to be a proactive learner. Help him find interesting mini projects. Start very simple. But keep trying to build gradually towards something he is really interested in (such as game programming etc.).

No reason it has to be one thing. If you want to hand hold it could be literally 100 different things to play with, show him a different thing every week based on his actual progression and interests.
> lot of them fall into substance abuse and homelessness after football

Isn't the cognitive and emotional-regulation degradation from playing football well documented at this point?
Because we're social animals that have evolved to weight appearance very highly in decision we make. I'm not trying to justify it, but it's a fact. We're not vulcans, and even if we we're we'd recognize that what we find attractive has evolutionary significance and weigh that signal accordingly.
I didn't downvote, but I'm fairly certain the downvotes come from the "you're thinking small" part - it comes across as condescending, even if it wasn't meant that way. If the parent chopped off the first sentence it would dramatically change the perceived tone toward a neutral to positive one. That is, the first sentence is largely unnecessary (it adds nothing other than the risk of people taking it quite negatively).

Like so:

It is wonderful to bootstrap an app and make income. However some ideas are much larger and need a big team and years of effort before the big payoff.
> Over two years ago. There's still, to my knowledge, no devices that support it. None, not a one.

To be honest, that timeline strikes me as pretty comparable with other hardware protocols like 802.11, USB, 5G etc. These are complex protocols, parts of them implemented in fixed-function logic, and that just takes some time to market.
Godot (with GDScript). JS + a browser. C++ and an IDE like Gnome Builder or QtCreator. Ruby and Rails. Ruby and command line.
Eh, first world countries produce a lot of food. Farming is generally heavily mechanized. Nobody needs to have their 'hands in the dirt'.

In fact, I expect most potatoes will not be touched by a single human hand until they reach the person who actually cooks and eats it.
I've never seen grpc from a browser on a consumer-facing site; do you have an example I could see?

That said, for this approach something like grpc would be a benefit since AIUI grpc is designed to be versioned so one could identify structural changes in the payload fairly quickly versus the json-y way of "I dunno, are there suddenly new fields?"
Tillman was almost 100% assassinated, he was talking to Chomsky and was set to come back for an anti-war tour during election year. If Tillman lives Bush doesn't get a 2nd term, he was the poster boy of the war and would have exposed all the lies about it. Military also illegally burned his journal and videos he'd recorded

he was shot from within 10 yards in the back by American weapons, which for some reason the media never talks about. The official claim was that he was killed from so far away they couldn't recognize him as American

>The following day the Associated Press reported that a doctor who examined Tillman's body after his death wrote, "The medical evidence did not match up with the scenario as described",[19] also noting that the wound entrances appeared as though he had been shot with an M16 rifle from fewer than 10 yards (9.1 m) away
Just wanted to comment and say that the design is a breath of fresh air. It feels in some ways similar to the startups of 10 years ago while still feeling modern and readable.

I feel like, by avoiding some of the modern UI/UX landing page trends, it feels more authentic when I land there. I like it.
Most code written for a paper is effectively abandoned before or soon after the paper is released.
Trustfall – How to Query (Almost) Everything
Actually that does beg the question - does the randomiser seed for autopicked lotto numbers use a time stamp? Ie, would you have actually gotten the same numbers he would have gotten if you didn’t buy it?
I'd like to add better technical discussion, too.
Sightly tangential, but does anyone know of any good system that integrates everything across devices? I'm talking backups/data management, clipboards, maybe notifications too etc. Bonus if music/video can be streamed and mouse/keyboards can be used cross device.

KDE Connect is nice and can do some of these, and many backup utilities like rclone or duplicati (which I've used in the past) can do some, but many features are not great. The closest I can think of is Apple's walled garden where you store everything on iCloud, but a) the massive restrictions on iOS, and more recently on MacOS (see: kext restrictions) are forced and b) it still isn't perfect and requires an iCloud subscription if you have more than 5gb of data you want synchronized.

I'm curious to know if any HN person knows of such software (assuming I can run a server to host the backend).
(In real life I still have an "unlimited" GDrive account from my university that I use to sync but it's far from perfect.)
Great points! Thanks for hopping in and adding extra color.

Navigating a whole portfolio through a flat/down environment sounds incredibly stressful.

If the driver of these changing environments is predominantly investor perception, public early warnings seem like they would accelerate or exacerbate them.

For example, if you publicly announce you’re expecting flat or down rounds (and similarly lowering your offers on new deals), it’s almost like applying downwards price fixing pressure. The next investor in your businesses feels they can also offer less without losing the deal. In this way, the warning manifests the crisis.

To protect the portfolio valuations, it would then seem strategic to prepare and react in private. But public warnings seem more strategic towards lowering valuations of new deals.

That’s why I’m naturally skeptical about the motivation for signaling.
Kuwait being in 1991, "then-popular nuclear winter theories" propagated the idea that nuclear war would essentially eradicate all life on earth, cause a drastic long-term drop of global temperatures, reduce the ozone layer to a level that plants would be burned by UV etc.

That's literally where the "uninhabitable, lifeless rock after WW3" idea comes from.
Which ended up being a serious mistake, and miscalculation (or bad prediction) of what happened.
Late 2008 early 2009 were not good to raise money or for tech hiring. But by late 2009 and early 2010 things picked up again in force. Google and Facebook got into a tech talent war, and hiring, and funding (of mobile companies) picked up massively.

What they predicted a long 'nuclear winter', was just a 6-9months period.
Lisp isn't semantically different from other languages, only syntactically - sure things are expressed as `map` instead of a for loop[0], but what's important is the memory layout of your data and whether or not it'd actually be faster to parallelize it, rather than if you can force it to work that way. So as long as the program works the same way it still can't/shouldn't be parallelized.

[0] except when Lisp programmers brag about how cool their complicated `loop` macro is
I hope I'm not missing something, but am I understanding it correctly: Messages between two people are publicly viewable, and then it's possible for other people to comment on them?

I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around a general use case then. It seems like a neat idea for discussions or debates between two people which have public value.. but most of the time when I'm writing directly to someone, why would I want to have it shared? Looking at other social networks, most of the time you want to share something with your social circle and generate a conversation which has more than two people or you message them directly. Am I missing something?
Same here (not that I used that platform much anyway). Nitter was the solution for me.

Sorry about that! Would you be able to let us know which browser and device you're using?

We're seeing some errors come in through Sentry about Firebase auth being unable to persist things in local storage, that may be what's going here. We'll keep digging!

Anyway the Australians still have oral records of conflicts, and precise negotiated resolutions, as people had to move uphill to where other people had already been living for tens of thousands of years. They were not always welcome.

The water rose continually from 20kya to 8kya, but about 12.8kya, after the comet strike, it rose very fast for a few years, maybe 3m in a decade.
And groceries. I was _shocked_ at how expensive buying fresh food was in the US, and funnily enough, the most desired food was imported from the EU and was far more expensive. Here's a great comparison - aged parmesan cheese from the supermarket [0] [1] is $11/lb here, or $17+tax in the US. This is the same for a huge amount of ingredients too; cheeses, meats + veg. I helped a friend do his grocery shopping in a trader joes, by my best guess it was twice the price of my shop in Sainsbury's (a middle-of-the-road supermarket)

This is also correct, you can comment on any message in an existing conversation. The same publication rules apply here – this spins off a new one-on-one conversation with the message's author.
Why anyone thinks that its ok to attempt to alter the climate, is beyond me. How can this be ok? How can someone else (a government) decide what weather I can have!??

What happens if oil companies lobby for extra coldness and cloud cover, as they know they will more than make up the expense in additional fuel costs? What if other vested interests get involved in what is bound to become a political scam? Is it possible that a slightly warmer climate will be of benefit to most people?

The chutzpah that the governance structure has in believing themselves righteous in determining not just the level of fines, or of the required licensing you need, or taxation, but now even the weather is unbelievable! Who gave them the right? Does say the US have the right to determine the weather for other countries? The whole concept would surely be illegal, if law was even based morality.. which its not.
We'll never know cause there was an intentional coverup

> Jones reported that members of Tillman's unit burned his body armor and uniform in an apparent attempt to hide the fact that he was killed by friendly fire.[29] His notebook, in which, according to author Jon Krakauer, Tillman had recorded some of his thoughts on Afghanistan, was also burned
I don't know if this counts, but I built so much software in Access '97. Mostly for small businesses and individuals. I could build a whole inventory management system in a weekend(a simple one anyways). It was phenomenal. Once I learned Java and SQL(how to correctly use SQL, lol) I quit using it as much. But sometimes I still prototype software in old versions of Access just to model everything out.
NCAA limits how many athletic scholarships a school can give out. The beneficiaries are those who would otherwise would not have received a scholarship.

Free Email providers? There are alternatives some popular and niche. Some cost and others don't. Some offer different features gmail doesn't.

If you can't get off of gmail maybe you just like gmail.
It would likely benefit universities who are either lacking an athletics program due to cost, or are unable to offer 'good' athletics scholarships. As such, this program would likely provide scholarship opportunities to 'marginally talented' varsity athletes.
And many of us who exist in the top quintile are perfectly happy with that, knowing that we are net contributors to a better place to live for others.
ha! agreed!
Fascinating, isn't it, that linking to a movie or cracked software is something they have to stop linking to upon request no questions asked by law, but if your personal information or financial information or login credentials are posted somewhere, you gotta prove you'd be harassed...

The US needs a GDPR-equivalent law.
Double down on anything that has worked to attract new customers. Ask yourself if there was a gun to your head and you HAD to 10x in a year what would you do. Get to a point where it covers your lifestyle and make the leap.
I...I love it...
Perhaps, but I would counsel patience and here's why... Afghanistan is taking an interesting turn with the Taliban seemingly at odds with Iran (https://amwaj.media/media-monitor/iran-deploys-armored-divis...) and so far no overt signs of resuming status a terrorist safe haven. Similarly, Iraq has become a sinkhole for Iran who continues to spend money it barely has to maintain its influence, while much of the country's oil revenue benefits Kuwait, Saudi Arabia and the Kurds.

Was either worth the cost in lives and money? I think the ultimate answer takes decades and the enemy gets their vote.
I've been browsing the site a little bit and I've got a question. Who is this or what is this for? I couldn't think of a personal use case for it so I'm asking out of curiosity.

So have the NCAA lift/remove the limit.
That's what I learned in CS, along with many other topics.

There's no way in hell I would learn about registers or assembly languages if I was learning about programming in 2022 outside of a CS program.
Ha, glad to hear it!
> Also, in Swift "\(foo)" does string interpolation. I haven’t seen people complain it leaks data or makes Swift slow (but then, it’s not fast at compiling at all because of its rather complicated type inference)

I think that the claim is not that this leaks data in an absolute sense, but rather that changing the behaviour after people have come to rely on it will leak data from currently well behaving applications.

dynamodb differs from the dynamo architecture quite a bit. ddb's partitioning of the hash ring is contiguous and each partition is backed by a set of replicas. when a partition gets hot for whatever reason the partition is split and each half gets its own set of replicas. this historically led to two issues

1. splitting also split RCUs/WCUs proportionally, so if you split a bunch then scaled down your db would have a very low amount of RCU/WCUs available per partition leading to surprisingly throttling. if you did a load test right before your launch, you would be better off trashing the db to avoid this.

2. responsiveness to hot spotting. dynamodb wasn't as good about burst capacity management and so between when you hit a hot spot and dynamodb reacted, you'd be up a creek.
> the worker shortage persists, and all indications are it will, this is a probable outcome

Conscription would be political suicide. The better bet is on more automation to better leverage a thinner spread of recruits.
You don’t get 100% of the value you produce, unless you work alone with only your equipment. You get the cost of retaining you, which depends on how many other employers would make you a better offer.
Please don’t do this.
Assuming you're in the US, it is probably from financial data. The whole market for data brokering has deep roots in financial services like credit reporting.

> Put people who were living outside or who are at risk of becoming homeless inside four walls. Then, voilà, you’ve solved the problem of homelessness

No, that has never, ever been the plan for housing first homelessness solutions. Its to put them in housing first. Then, surround them with case workers, medical care, social services, etc to get them the help they need.

By all means, criticize your local implementation, but that isn't housing first.
> The idea that a neighborhood's character needs to be preserved is exactly the kind of logic used to justify redlining.

Who is talking about preserving a neighborhood's "character"? We're talking about preserving the concept of a residential area as opposed to abundance of homes being used as commercial hotel-like spaces.

> "Random" people should be able to buy property and use it in the same way that existing owners can.

Sorry, but is it not clear that this is my point?
Exactly. There's so many stories from earlier generations about working their way through college and a family home. My partner and I make three what my parents did, and while we're comfortable, we're nowhere near what my parents were at 20-30 years ago because of inflation.

There's no chance I'm able to buy a home within an hour of the Metro I'm living in within Texas. I'm really hoping working from home sticks around as most major cities are quickly becoming so costly to live in.

It's so bad I've been talking to some family about going in together on some rural land to split and create a family commune type thing to share infrastructure while living rural. A number of us can work fully remote as long as we have solid online connectivity.
This sort of tech-related crash had to come someday, and out of this earthquake in terms of these FAANG companies, Netflix (NFLX) stock has cratered 40% in one week and 75% from its all time high.

The most obvious name one could come up with this is The Big Tech Crash which has now spread into the private start-up markets. [0][1]

As for Netflix itself, they are essentially a side-project for Disney, Apple and Amazon which after this disastrous earnings they respond by raising prices; which is a bad idea. If they don't think of something clever soon, they will be at risk of themselves being taken over.

Probably won't happen, but we'll see.

> but why would one pick OCaml over F#?

For me it would be because OCaml is supported by Ubuntu as a package. In contrast, for installing F# you need to add an external repository and mess with GPG keys etc. which seems odd. Perhaps I'm wrong but what it tells me is that F# is not yet fully embraced by the open source/Linux community.

Here's mine, the Pareto principle or the 80/20 rule. You will find that it applies in MANY ascpects of life and knowing it may give you an `edge'.

Oh, and if it is 10, 28, 2, 7, 25 it is also the same sequence with 8, 45, 9, 29, because 10, (28 + 2), 7, 25 looks similar enough. That extra number was a clear mistake.
The debate wasn't about that fact, it was about rather a white man would have died resisting or if him resisting in the way he did justified his death. The data shows that minorities are killed by cops at much higher rate[1]. He was accused of writing bad checks, that doesn't carry a death sentence nor should it. The reason people that express that opinion are often called racist is that it seems obtuse to bring up in the discussion. I'm NOT calling you of racist, I don't think people that state that are by default. Many are just siding with the police for various reasons.

My GF is a nurse and I've heard her talk about working a number of 12 hour shifts and not having the ability to go to the bathroom, get water, or have lunch, all because of how strapped the unit is and arduous the requirement is to do these things (usually having to leave the unit). I'm honestly shocked we're not hearing more mistakes, and it should be 100% hospital admins on the chopping block for forcing these insane work environments upon nurses while expecting quality patient care.
How much data should be kept? If you have a multi-TB database, should AWS keep all of it, and keep charging you beyond the cap?
Personally its always been out there these people search sites just make it easy to figure it out who your dealing with especially when it comes to dating.

Was just with someone for the past few months who said all their relatives passed due to a horrific car accident and they would talk a lot about saying how much they missed them and are alone; have no one. Ummm they are all alive and well.. there was no horrific accident and she is just a crazy manipulator... gain sympathy to get whatever she wanted (toxic ... gross.. go away) ... Amber Heard type.
