Ask HN: Where can I find unusual UI inspiration?
I'm building an app and I don't want it to look like all the other competitors. Is there a website where I can find inspiration for audacious/unusual/novel designs ? Thank you
This is pretty cool. I love a good RTS. Nice job.
This is more or less the concept of time, correct? I think an AI can understand state in simple cases (i.e. it can likely answer correctly "I didn't water my plant in 2 months, is it dead?"), but the way the current models are designed its just request / response, they perhaps from the very root way of how they are implemented don't (or can't) have a sort of _narrative_ sense of state. This is also present when you have a conversation with them. They won't bring up topics from the start or earlier part of the conversation, because they don't really "know" they happened. They simply receive and reply, that doesn't actually change the state of the model itself. To me this is one of the main keys that still need to be unlocked in AI capabilities. You need a neural net to modify itself in real time and track those changes to be able to have this sense.

To provide an example, it's almost like you need a _time series_ of GPT-3s, not just a single GPT-3 neural network, and the model itself would need to be able to self-inspect those time series and say to itself "ah yes, this was my old foolish understanding, now I have this new, better, understanding". I have no idea how this would look in technical terms, these are just the musings of a somewhat more-than-casual AI observer.
If you shave with a sharp double edge safety you are at 95% of whatever the "4 blade megarazors" do. The only ones I might like a little better are the bendy heads that conform to the face a bit better. But it's not worth destroying the environment or paying 20X as much for the blades.
COVAX had nothing to do with an "open source" model, it was about better distribution of the existing vaccine supplies. There were early concerns that IP rights enforcement might make it harder to develop and supply SARS-CoV2 vaccines, but a patent waiver was ultimately agreed upon. It made very little difference in the end because effective vaccines (such as those based on mRNA) are not like other drugs, and there are inherent constraints to expanding supply or making a "generic" version.
I had done a similar one, just without the images. My intention was to add a blurb for each of the books, but friction is the enemy of reading.

> SQL is excellent but exposing your database is not.

That was definitely true before Postgres got row security (admittedly in 2016, after GraphQL was released in 2015), but these days there's really no need to run an entire app server in front of your database just to implement permissions.
Yes, you can put it into the prompt. The prompt can contain the task name, a task description, examples, and example rationales. Instruct GPT-3 can get the meaning of the task very fast, usually with just the task name.
I disagree with requiring it in general.
As soon as you admin repos, sure.
That one is a transliteration/adoption, as it is literally just ハ-フ (pronounced as "ha-fu"). The actual word for a half (like in "half a minute") would be 半 (pronounced as "han")
I would imagine this is a connection flight, in which case the passenger is already airside and doesn’t need to go through security or to travel to the airport.
Numba does much of what you’re looking for, albeit with its own type hint system.

My favorite comment. Let's ignore any valid criticism and complain about something else instead.
What's "Good luck!" in Spanish?
Thanks! Re: Env Groups, not yet, but we are overhauling the new service flow and will definitely incorporate adding env groups.
GraphQL also has advantages that are otherwise difficult to realize, at least without an API schema. Request and response validation and object-level caching come to mind. How would you otherwise share cached objects between API endpoints? Need to set up a custom redis integration. With GraphQL, such things often come in nicely wrapped packages.
So glad you already cover my favorite ideas for monetization! I'm considering how to monetize my own startup- currently the whole codebase is permissively licensed.

I plan to sell a hosted service, but hopefully I will be in a position where I actually WANT AWS to yoink the code and run a competitive service, so it can feed into better business models.

Open Core is distasteful in my opinion because it limits the growth of the open project. (no no I won't accept that relevant Pull Request, because I want to sell this feature as proprietary)

GPL/copyleft is not right for me either, in fact I want to HELP people fork for their own companies and profits.

So, once Amazon finally launches their competitor service, I can still:

- compete with AWS on product and User Experience
- sell early access/license to the open source code
- sell courseware subscriptions+packages
- sell first-party support
- crowdfund feature development
- sell consulting services
> Start refusing to buy things and stop making excuses and until then you should feel ashamed to lecture anyone about anything.

This does not make sense to me. The single biggest consumption item is living in a detached single family house with yard space (due to knock on effects of everything you consume having to travel further, including the people in your house).

I know this, and I can advocate for change such that it people are incentivized to live more densely and consume less space (drastically higher fossil fuel taxes). But that does not mean I should give up my enjoyment of resources. If everyone else is going to consume, then so am I. But if the collective decides to sacrifice, then I am signaling I am willing to also. There is no reason for someone to not live it up if the collective is not going to also sacrifice.
At the same time, I absolutely abhor and detest global monoculture.

I went to Vietnam before the pandemic and lot's of hip coffee shops are basically exact clones of something you'd find in Portland.
For that you have to standardize on bash compatible. It's ok if the exact command/syntax isn't in muscle memory. I've worked with a number of "alternative shell" fans and one thing that nearly everyone agrees on is that "bash compatible" is the lingua franca and the standard.
> It’s a shame because McIlroy had a lot of interesting ideas around pipelining audio and graphics that, as far as I know, never materialized.

Do you know if those ideas are documented anywhere?
Of course it is a complicated issue, no one denies that, however, if the Canadian Center for Suicide Prevention states in their findings; "There have been reports that state that Bupropion is the worst antidepressant for treating suicidal behaviors and may even play a part in increasing suicidal tendencies among users." and "These results would show that bupropion is a dangerous drug to use to treat depression." .... just maybe we should listen to people who know what they are talking about, instead of armchair psychiatrists.

It could be done faster too, because he does a lot of stuff that is unnecessary.
This is a long-standing political issue. Much has been written on waterway cost recovery, but most of it is old. Congressional Budget Office study from the 1980s says "User fees now in effect recover approximately 10 percent of the Corps
of Engineers costs of operating and maintaining the inland waterway
system."[1]

The Waterways Council (the barge industry's lobby) talks a lot about cost-benefit ratios of barge operations and why their infrastructure should be subsidized.[2] They argue that lower pollution and less infrastructure cost per ton mile justifies Federal spending. They're probably not wrong.

Can you be less cryptic and on topic?
Someone said he uses the DPI settings for accessibility reasons and you the expert say to use Zoom instead because you know better, can you copy paste from the article what we are doing wrong and tell us exactly what is the correct solution, maybe link to Apple(preferably not GNOME article that says DO NOT USE DPI scaling for accessibility.

I use both methods int he past and it really depends on OS features and the apps you have to use but let me know your expert opinon.
Let's adjust the statement a bit.
It's overrated. Still phenomenal compared to alcohol -- which is one of the weakest drugs per unit mass or volume. Literally only 2% of blood ethanol gets to the brain, so most of what folks drink is actually performing organ damage, not CNS effects.

Like you said, Cannabis is a wildly diverse plant. Cannabinoids like CBG, CBC, and CBDV are extraordinary anti-inflammatory and anti-neoplastic agents.

100% agree with you and the literature does too. Daily use of high THC / low CBD cannabis is the main driver of the temporary psychosis we are seeing across cities that have legalized marijuana.

Studies show that CBD is actually antipsychotic whereas THC is the opposite, so we have essentially bred the plant into a tripping device versus what it used to be, a more cerebral relaxing experience.
The bottleneck is usually RAM. It looks like his device has 4GB, which is similar to what a cell phone has.

It doesn't take much manufacturer-supplied bloatware, bad drivers, or background processes to use up that much RAM but a Chromebook is just the kernel and Chrome, so you get a lot of bang for your buck.
wiby.me only indexes pages without JS, so that's a start.
> Sizzzle will present vendors from an algorithm, rather than an arbitrary ranking.

How will you distinguish this for your users and allow their input to affect the algorithm? I have a hard time distinguishing between “arbitrary ranking” and “algorith”m because I have no control over them in almost every case.
> I love that every tiny operation accepts credit cards and apple pay now.

At least in NYC, it's standard for street vendors and smaller businesses (like delis) to take only cash (or to have a purchase minimum for a credit charge, usually $10 or higher).

I've heard lots of reasons for this, all of which I find plausible: it's more profitable (credit processing fees are effectively a regressive tax), it allows vendors to pass on savings to their customers (my local coffee shop gives me a discount if I pay in cash), and it allows them to dodge their local sales tax.
Well the line you quoted says company not industry. Ecommerce is a relatively young industry anyway. And Amazon has been around since what, 94? So 6 years is over 20% of the time Amazon has existed.
I'd be more interested in turning a Chromebook into a vanilla linux box if they moved away from soldered RAM (which is all I saw in Chromebooks a few years ago).
my impression is there is some
kind of shaving cartel and illegal price fixing going on. There is no good reason you some competitor could not sell razor cartridges for like 50 cents each but they are sold for $4 each. The only good explanation is some kind of collusion
Scratches are a minor issue because the induction surface is flat, as opposed to electric/gas which are not. A heavier dropped pan can also sometime shatter the glass surface of an induction range. And being heavier, a cast iron pan requires more electricity to heat. If you are cooking an egg in a 5-lb pan the vast majority of the power goes to heating the pan. A thinner/cheaper pan will heat faster, pass more heat to the actual food, and therefore use less electricity.
CO2 emissions are only one aspect of the the issue (and they are rising in all developing countries as they develop), which is a global environmental crisis.

This crisi is caused by excessive exploitation of resources, which is still increasing because of a compounded effect: we're rightly eradicating poverty and we're more and more.

So yes we are feeding everyone, among other improvements, but we are destroying the planet in the process.

Even we're the efforts we're making in rich the consumption of resources is not really decreasing while it is increasing in developing countries.

Population is the root cause of the problem.

I don't see why this is controversial. Less people enjoying a better life in a better environment sounds like an ideal world.
There are 4950 possible pairs in the initial problem statement. Sandy gets one of 197 possible sums, and Peter gets one of 2,869 possible products. Of those 2,869 products, 1,765 can be produced with only possible pair of numbers: something like 67 can only be (1, 67), whereas 240 could be (3, 80) or (5, 48) or (4, 60) or 5 other possible pairs. Peter doesn't know the answer, so when he tells that to Sandy, she learns that it can't be (1, 67) but it still could be (3, 80) or the like.

Before Peter told Sandy he didn't know, only 4 sums could have been caused by a unique pair (198, 3, 2, and 197). Peter telling Sandy he doesn't know lets her rule out lots of pairs, and after doing so, there are 9 sums that would have a single pair remaining that hadn't been ruled out. For example, were the sum 165, Sandy could have concluded that the only possible pairing would be 69 and 96, since the other pairs that add up to that number (e.g., 74 and 91, 80 and 85, etc.) would have unique products that Peter would have known about. That she doesn't know the answer yet therefore tells Peter that 69 and 96 is not a possible pair. Were the product 6624, Peter would now know that the only possible remaining pair was 72 and 92, and he would know the answer. But since he didn't know the answer, now Sandy knows that it can't have been 72 and 92 either.

This crossing out continues until Peter realizes that 70 and 96 was not a viable pair, which lets him realize that the only other way to get 6720 was to have the numbers be 80 and 84, and he declares he knew the answer. [Assuming I got the correct number of rounds]
I had that exact same thought last year and threw together a small project[1] to index some blogs. I didn't work much on it, though.

>only accepting credit cards is literal evil and against the law in the USA.

"There is no federal statute mandating that a private business, a person, or an organization must accept currency or coins as payment for goods or services. Private businesses are free to develop their own policies on whether to accept cash unless there is a state law that says otherwise"[1]

I moved over to Render and cancelled Heroku. I didn't mind it before because it was reliable (if not expensive) but this Github fiasco made me move. Happy to get rid.
Are you actually a researcher? Skilled in the sciences? Degrees and phds? An expert in your field? If not, I don't see how you could possibly claim:

> 1) people, including most researchers, are scientifically illiterate

Wouldn't you need to be an expert in this field to know?
I mean 2.8 million folks die each year due to obesity related diseases and effects.

https://www.who.int/news-room/facts-in-pictures/detail/6-fac...

Since fat is beautiful, does that make covid more beautiful? Maybe we should stop stigmatizing it.

PS: I vomited in my mouth after typing that. But my general point to that sarcasm, putting any "problem" on a pedestal is stupid. Is covid dangerous, absolutely. 1 death is one too many. But a lot of the same people who go hysterical about covid, claim obesity is fine... and wear masks while alone at home during zoom meetings. There was no way to day 1 avoid deaths no matter the "scientific illiteracy". That's just political rhetoric to sway votes. Just like student loan forgiveness.

Researchers sequence SARS-CoV2 variants all the time, all over the world - it's a pandemic after all. The Chinese did some great work, but had they not done it first others would have.
True, but you’ll need to activate it. That is done online, using your NemID. You cannot buy, or steal, a bunch of SIM and simply use the right away. They won’t work unless activated.

I haven’t tried in recent years, but those SIMs I bought for testing 8 or 10 years ago, in cash, from shady kiosks, all needed to be activated.

I’m Nigerian, and you don’t want to know the amount of horrors caused by government incompetence that we face everyday.

For example, I’m on the fifth day of a total power blackout because electricity providers won’t just agree to do their jobs.

There’s monumental corruption everywhere. Our current President is a totally clueless person. My hometown is being terrorized by separatists…This whole place is just nuts on a scale that first-worlders would find hard to believe.
I tried straight razor but it was just too much maintenance. Parker safety razor and plain old dove beauty bar have been the sweet spot for me. I like the idea of a straight razor but the maintenance just wasn't worth it. If my safety razor blade gets dull I just toss it and know that it's just iron and carbon and will degrade and not pollute the earth.
You may like blue carbon steel pans. I tried lodge cast iron and while I like them, I thought they were too much work - mostly the weight (female who doesn't shy away from lifting real weights at the gym, but cast iron is not user friendly in that way). The blue steel pans are lighter than cast iron (heaver than teflon), cleans easier, heat faster, the handle stays cooler longer, and still has all the positives of cast iron without the cheap teflon. The only work/inconvenience is most are not pre-seasoned, which I preferred after learning to season my first new pan. It can be a simple 1-2 hour process after buying or can be thought of as an art.

I personally dont like cooking, and I avoid anything requiring more than 3 items - my steel pans remove the annoying factors (equipment handling, maintenance & care) make me dread cooking a little less. Had the pans for 4-5 years now and they are an absolute joy to use

> Did you compare to a local flight within the EU?

No. Thanks for the explanation.
Yeah can confirm. I switched to Lark and am a lot happier. But a caveat w/ Lark is that a generated standalone parser behaves differently--I gave up doing this and just read the grammar on the fly now (sorry erezsh!).
people need to set examples. "Do as I say not as I do"

it's not about distraction, it's about showing you're sincere. If you're like "save the planet" out of one side and on the other planning your 5th airflight you don't "actually" care.

it's like asking poor countries to bare all the burden of climate change and rich countries doing little. "I've got mine and sorry you don't but too bad, you're not allowed to have it" is not going to convince anyone except to follow your actions, not your words
What happens when you need to update some deeply nested child element without re-rendering the whole tree? Suddenly you need some system of labeling the children, how to find them in the dom, how to update them, how to keep them in sync with the state... a vanilla JS solution becomes extremely unwieldy as soon as you step out of the "global pointers to elements" phase (what the project in the OP is). Lit-html is an example of a tool that solves this problem in tiny package- less than 1KB- and you can continue using string templates with that.
My guess is that they didn't fire them for "letting it happen" exactly. They probably fired them because the employees would view those managers as someone they recently defeated over a major issue. Which changes the power dynamic in a way that's distinct from the presence of the union itself. It's a weak attempt to get some of that back.
FTA: “The biggest gap in scores was found in the distraction category — a measure of how often a driver handles their smartphone while driving. In other words, iPhone users have a harder time leaving their phones alone while behind the wheel“

They don’t disclose much about their methodology. All https://getjerry.com/studies/sorry-iphone-fans-android-users... says is

“Jerry analyzed data collected from 20,000 drivers during 13 million kilometers of driving over a 14-day period. The data generated an overall driving score as well as sub-scores for acceleration, speed, braking, turning, and distraction. Then we grouped the results by smartphone operating system and various demographic characteristics.”

So, that could just mean iPhone users are more likely to use their phone for route planning or that iPhones are more easily used hands-free.

IMO, this is a fluff piece designed to draw attention. That worked.
I'm pretty far to the left and have never heard of this publication. I get the feeling it's suffering the same phenomenon as movie reviews where professional critics are increasingly distant from people who watch movies for fun. People can now get their movie recs and political advocacy from people they mesh with across the world without consulting the cathedral.
