absolutely love this project!! will definitely use this as compositional aid...

a few thoughts:

- it would be nice to go "the other direction" here too -- from a set of chords, tell me the possible ambient key environments

- the only thing ux wise i can pick at is the squiggly underline

- support for modulation would be amazing (a basic query there might be just "find any/all common chords between two selected key environments")

> Another innovation suggests that artificial intelligence could make CSP more competitive. Heliogen Inc., a CSP company backed by Bill Gates, uses computer vision to track the sun and continually adjust the mirrors in a CSP plant to maximize the concentration of sunlight.

Is this a journalist not getting it? Why would we need computer vision to track the position of the sun?

> That takes some of the complexity out of building a CSP system, which lowers construction costs. In current systems, mirrors have to be painstakingly installed in the best possible position. Even then, the ground can shift and stop concentrating the sunlight as effectively, according to Bill Gross, Heliogen’s CEO and founder.

Ok, maybe it's more about the continuous optimization of the mirror positioning.
If by 'faith' (per the parent) you mean religious faith, sure it can. Plenty of people have stopped believing in a god, started believing in a god, or come to a new understanding of their god.

Maybe what you mean is 'blind faith', i.e., a rejection of evidence contrary to what you want to believe, to which I will again point out is not unique to religion, by pointing to politics, and the quote of our past president "what you're seeing and what you're reading is not what's happening", and the millions willing to accept that.

Ask HN: Can you program without an Internet connection?
I ran a little experiment the other day to see how I would get on coding without an Internet connection. I was doing a bit of web development, mostly frontend stuff, and was proud of how many obscure HTML elements I was using like <DETAILS> and <CITE> etc. Then the urge to open a browser came within 10 minutes of coding. I wanted to code a hamburger menu, but didn't want to reinvent the wheel. Specifically I wanted the hamburger menu to work with CSS only so was looking for a snippet of code that done that, but had no Internet.

I was genuinely asking myself: 'Am I even a competent developer if I have to use the Internet every five minutes to code?'

How do you cope with this feeling, of tapping into the Internet hive mind to code properly?

I think it's a good idea to mitigate the downsides of the monopoly granted by copyright, when possible. We saw similar problems with studio ownership of movie theaters, and solved that by not letting studios own movie theaters (via an antitrust suit). That's only very recently, and in what may be the twilight of the movie theater itself, changed.

In the current environment, I suspect we'll see (are already seeing, to some extent) history repeat itself, but not do anything about it this time, because we're so skittish of regulating markets now.

I don't think you should have to own an extensive catalog of content to launch a streaming service. Nor that you should effectively have to grovel for the patronage of one of a handful of integrated production+distribution mega corporations to undertake production of new media. But that's rapidly where the market's heading, and I don't see any mechanism to change that course short of anti-trust action.

There are, as usual, some benefits to the rents the current monopolistic system produces (extra cash sloshing around to throw at projects, for example—extra R&D money is a typical benefit monopolies produce, and in this case, because the monopolies are on particular content rather than on all content [so far—Disney's getting alarmingly close], there remain incentives to actually spend that money on, if you will, R&D, or the closest thing to it in media production) but at the cost reduced competition on cost & quality, and of making it much harder to enter the market, for new players.

Providers want to act as gatekeepers who have the power to make something popular by limiting your options to alternatives. Sometimes they also want to be able to accept money for heavily promoting specific things over others. It's not about delivering a quality product to you at all, it's about what gives them money/power at your expense.
Society is replete with trade-offs sacrificing freedom for collective security. You can make moral judgements about this all day, but it won't change the dynamics of our lives.
Pretty good as a visual and auditory reference. But it could use a bit more detail on the why / how. For example, it shows "C major scale" with notes CDEFGAB. But then when you click the Cmaj button it only plays CGE. Why only three notes? A chord can have more than three. Why those specific ones? Why is it that notes CDEFGAB make up the C major scale?

I guess it gets complicated, and that's why there are so many links to external sites for more information.

Hehe excellent to see they’re working on a software platform for self-hosted software. We’re probably their only competitor with our PiBox hardware (https://pibox.io) and software (https://KubeSail.com).

It’s fantastic to see another company try to put together the full self-hosting vision into a product. It’s a strange emotion to work on something for 3 years and then see a competitor finally emerge! Best of luck and I’ll be buying one asap…
> The new Scoutmaster wasn't into the high adventure camping and believed the troop should head another direction. That was the end for me.

The high-adventure trips were the best part for me. The multi-week canoeing trip in the boundary waters between Minnesota and Canada (northern-tier), multi-week sailing trip and snorkeling in the Florida Keys, the Philmont backing trip, etc. Our troop took backpacking trips on the Appalachian Trail in Georgia, Talladega national forest in Alabama, etc. Many fun memories with family and friends.

I was in 3 troops as a kid due to moving around. The troop in the Chicago area was a fantastic example of a by-the-book Boy Scout troop. The scouts ran the show and the adults only got involved if we were about to do something very stupid (making non-dangerous mistakes and learning from them is an important part of maturing), or if the decision required an adult to sign off (spending troop money, etc.). The one in Alabama was more laid back, kind of boy and adult led, but the adults definitely did more of the work than the chicago area troop. The one in the bay area I joined ended up being a rich kid dick measuring contest and I quickly left the troop, which was the end of my time in the Boy Scouts.
If agency to make a thing must be purchased the long term viability of the thing is suspect. The work becomes about payments not the thing.

If it’s a real human problem, humans will solve it. If it’s instigated due to someone with coins in their pocket to mesmerize lizard brains, it’s a synthetic solution that will vanish with the synthetic driver of the work; payments.

Just because paying for things is common throughout history does not mean it’s necessary or the best choice long term; see Netflix propping up payment flows churning out crap. It means meat based tape recorders simply LARP the past.

I think that Bambi is something of a war movie; look at the forest fire scene, there is fire everywhere, it must have been inspired by bombing raids during the battle of Britain. I wonder if some of the artists had first hand experience of these events.

Why are giveaways always quoted at official sales figures instead of what it costs the giving-away party?

Even if the price for the courses was market driven, I am sure plenty of people will only take these courses because they are at no cost to them (iow, they would never have paid anything close to advertised price, so the market has obviously rejected this price).

And there is the low, low price of offering these courses after they've already been produced to, obviously, earn some money for their creators.

So my complaint is mostly about using monetary values to describe something that has never had any potential to involve that amount of money being moved.

Just like movie and music industry claiming losses due to unauthorised copying as if every user would have paid full retail price for the content if they couldn't get it through illegal means.

I only see complaints when it comes to interviews. People either complain that they're asked leetcode questions which doesn't reflect the real work, or they complain that they were expected to implement real work tasks which takes too much time out of their week.

Unless your complaint was just about the lack of follow through, that's valid, kind of shitty to not be told that you didn't get the job at least.

Anyways, my point is, interviewing just sucks.

"It goes full-screen - isn't that an expected outcome?"

Not exactly ...

First of all, for most of the life of OSX, clicking the green dot caused the window to resize larger, but not occupy full screen, by some measure I could never discern. That was always braindead.

Second of all, while the current behavior that I see (expand to literally full screen) is sort of an improvement (that is, at least it makes some sense) it's still badly behaved because bringing a window to literally full screen blanks out my other monitors (!@#) ... and now we're drifting into OSX treatment of multi-monitors which is another few layers of hell.

FWIW, IMO, the correct behavior is to maximize the window in the workspace - which is almost identical, but not quite, to the literal screen.
What exactly is your point?

Socialist capitalism[1] is mainly about making sure the wealth and opportunity gap between members of a society doesn't become a 'canyon'.

We're talking mainly legislation here.

Thanks for the quick reply, that helps a lot. In the case where we're not intending to handle Internet traffic on the proxy--only Tailscale--it would still be possible to bind the Nginx listener to only the Tailscale adapter though right?

I'm imagining a use-case where Tailscale + Nginx is acting kind of like an Azure App Proxy where you want to ensure that all access to the upstream service is validated against the Tailscale ACL. Maybe that's already implicitly the case since the auth_request goes to nginx-auth, so any traffic that isn't coming from a Tailscale IP is going to be denied anyways.

> There’s this interesting dissonance where all the second year CS students and their professors agree it’s the wrong tool for the job yet the most successful products in the world did it anyway.

> I guess you could interpret that to mean all these people building these products made a bad choice that succeeded despite using Python but I’d interpret it as another instance of Worse is Better. Just like Linus was told monolithic kernels were the wrong tool for the job but we’re all running Linux anyway.

This isn't the correct perspective or take away. The 'tool' for the job when you're talking about building/scaling a website changes over time as the business requirements shift. When you're trying to find market fit, iterating quickly using 'RAD' style tools is what you need to be doing. Once you've found that fit and you need to scale, those tools will need to be replaced by things that are capable of scaling accordingly.

Evaluating this binary right choice / wrong choice only makes sense when qualified with a point in time and or scale.
First, there is no requirement by SOC2 that says you "must use SSO for all applications". SOC2 talks about "logical access controls". For a team of 10, you would simply have a policy that states "any time a new developer comes on, they have to use MFA to access GitHub and this is enforced because we check the box in GH, blah blah" and "any time a developer leaves the company, we revoke all access, blah blah".

Also, if you're going to spend $20k+ on SOC2 because your clients require it, then spending the $20k on GitHub shouldn't be a problem because your clients should be paying for it (i.e. your ACV should be high enough to cover these things).

Bluesky – Working in Public
Reminds me of all the adults freaking out about kids being traumatized by wearing masks. Kids don’t care. For them it was like putting on pants. Not a big deal unless the adults around them make it into a big deal.
I have to agree on that - it seems like forcing a show/movie to a user even if that does not align with their mood or historic picks. I am not interested at all in shows like Inventing Anna or Tinder Swindler or Selling Sunset but I have to still cope with them showing that moving banner ad like that covering so much real estate.

What I would like to see is, semantic search where I could elaborate the shows/movies I'd like to search for: "A classic movie starring Tom Cruise and directed by Steven Spielberg" and Netflix shows me "War of the Worlds" in search results.
I'm not so sure your data supports your conclusion. On homeownership, you argue more are moving to cities - but that supporting article doesn't address ownership, it just says "moved to." Not "purchased property." The first article pretty much disproves your point - young adults are delaying home purchasing, and only catch up 5 years later. Which is consistent: young people can't afford the same thing until much later. The homeownership rate is inconclusive as well. It pretty much supports the huge drop in owners living in their property the last decade. This DESPITE extremely low interest rates. The 80s it makes sense because of high interest rates - in a period of low interest rates, homeownership should have exploded. it didn't.

Now as interest rates rise and houses are still overpriced, the difficulties will multiply.

> People also have a major bias from due to social mobility. For people who's parents owned a house and they don't, it seems like everything is falling out of reach. They don't have the perspective of the equal number of people who are in the opposite situation, where they are homeowners and their parents weren't.

Social mobility is key - but social mobility has significantly slowed down. There is a stark divide with millennials - the college educated have done just about the same as boomers, but the non-college educated have done worse.

> For example, you can look back just 10-20 years and see significant progress in civil rights, homicide rates, and social services. Medicaid didn't even exist before 65' and has undergone a number of large expansions since. It is easy to forget little things like 2+ million boomers were forcibly drafted to go fight in a foreign war.

You can go back and forth with qualitative comparisons. Boomers didn't have a global pandemic or a recession that matched 2008. Inflation now is matching the 80s, so that argument goes out. Iraq and Afghanistan exist, and the largest attack on US soil was committed. Oh, the cold war? Yea Russia is still threatening nuclear war and we have the largest war in Europe since World War 2.

In any case, the numbers that matter prove the point: generations are not doing better than their predecessors for the first time in a long time. Millennials are slower to homeownership, slower to marriage, have to get more educated to compete, etc. These are all quantitative.

The pissing contest doesn't matter much if people are storming the capitol. People are unhappy, for good reason. Telling them they're just alarmist is just sticking your head in the sand. There's a reason fascist politics are back and socialism is gaining ground - people are struggling, more of them are, and more are becoming desperate.

Agree. I didn't necessarily mean to attack those points, rather I'm annoyed by this entire discussion on HN.

Clearly, most people didn't bother to read the PDF, check additional sources or do a basic background check on the author, whom is a well known authority on the matter.

With just a headline as input, people confidently disagree with the conclusion. Completely dismissing the research. And by posting such disagreement in a way that is relatable to all parents and by wording it in a fancy way, it seems an insightful comment, so it gets traction.

Superficially, it looks a healthy and intelligent discussion. In reality, almost all of it is way off and baseless. There's no truth finding. It's just Reddit with more steps and fancier language.

The other half of comments is people projecting, with random thoughts on housing and inflation, as if a 12 y/o gives a shit about that.
What is almost certainly true is that a lot of shows are more serialized than when you were a kid given that serial was mostly bad for a number of reasons in the broadcast era.

So most shows were pretty much 30-60 self-contained minutes with relatively little prior context needed. If you're going to tell a story over 8 hours or even several seasons, various aspects of the pace are going to be a lot slower.
