So a comment from another side of the pond, where other problems matter ...

I think the reason why lots of such endeavors peaked and subsided is removal of a major irritant - the former president. Trump was fairly unusual in his ability to boil the blood of his opponents into outright madness, in a way that, say, GWB couldn't. If he spent 4 more years in the WH, I am not sure what would be the end result.
I think the main problem is that they're too attention grabbing. Especially in a UI in HN where everything else is plain text, an emoji would have so much visual weight your eyes would have trouble focusing on anything else on the page. Forbidding such visual grenades helps keep the focus on the content.
A comparison to https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc7386 would be nice. My gut is that the patch was born due to the copy aspect as well as the awkwardness of arrays.

I got around arrays by simply not needing them for the most part.
Ask HN: Any Tips on Mentoring an Intern?
I am having my first mentee (an intern), and I am still an entry-level software engineer (1 year working experience). Any tips on how to mentor? Things to look out for?

A few things that I currently struggle with:

- difficult to gauge how much they know, and how slow/fast I should in explaining stuff

- distraction (I am excited to mentor, hence my brain keep coming back to that (providing resources, reviewing their work, etc.) while I am supposed to do my work)

- how detailed/nitpicking should I be in reviewing, how to explain the right concept at the right time

Thanks!
There are a lot of difficulties in creating modern, highly effective thermonuclear weapons. But building a primitive fission bomb like Little Boy is not very difficult. As you say, enrichment is the limiting step. All the science is in university textbooks.
Running smaller models on a big GPU does not inherently make them faster, at some point the GPU has a lot of parallel capacity that it simply can't use, and the deep net is ultimately sequential.

You can test that by making the model 10x bigger. On an RTX 3090 it will probably not change inference speed much, whereas on CPU it will be much slower.
This is expected as people start moving money away from capital into consuming.

If you have any longterm aspirations for using crypto to save money, this summer should be the time.
I used to hate Slack, then I got involved with some projects that require Teams,....
This website has claims falsely that oxygen tanks need co2 scrubbers and candles don’t. That is not true and can get people hurt!

You need co2 scrubbers for any oxygen producing solution, since co2 kills faster than o2 scarcity.

Having a candle, and just a candle alone in a hermetically sealed room will result in suffocation as fast as without it.

I reported the post as it contains false and dangerous info.

Bullshit. That's called a bank. Turn it into cash and stick it in a normal bank.
What you call “argument from authority” other people call “spending significant effort examining research or summaries of research, and using past experience to gauge its credibility.”

The advantage is in mutating arrays. You don't need to send the entire array back, just the commands for which index gets added/ removed / replaced.

Also, there's no way to differentiate between deleting a key from an object and leaving it unchanged if you send a partial patch, assuming that `null` is a distinct value different than actually deleting the key itself.

> Decades ago, it was easy to find conservative news outlets that didn't have these problems. I honestly don't know where they went.

I think you are missing something here: a lot of conservatives feel kinda the same about the liberal sources.

I'm not old enough to have direct experience of how things were decades ago, but I was recently reading an old book about Reagan by a bunch of NYT correspondents. They didn't seem nearly as biased as today's NYT journalists do.

Another example is CNN. I vaguely feel that it must've been much better during the Walter Isaacson era.
Currency values shift over time. Hence any pegging is a problem as inevitably there will be mispricing.

I agree with this article! I even went so far as to write a Prisma-like SQL client generator that uses better-sqlite3 under the hood, so you get the nice API of Prisma and the synchronous performance of better-sqlite3. I’ve been using it for a few small projects, but I just released it at 1.0 yesterday.

We moved to Discord and I really miss the threads in Slack. (for example threads can last one week max). They definitely could be a lot worse.
That’s not what I meant. I mean do people stop on day 1 with the 57th pioneer, or day 20,037 with the 847,529th pioneer, or keep going? That’s a choice and individual followers don’t make the same choice.
These drones dropped like flies in Libya. It is actually very surprising how successful they have been.
The HN crowd hates passwordless sign ins but most of us actually know how to keep our passwords secure, at least relative to the average user. Non-techies have their passwords leaked and identities stolen time and time again. And get frustrated when they keep forgetting their password. Biometric passwords are incredibly useful for these people.

Of course Apple, Google, Microsoft have to keep non-biometric password authentication. Otherwise a lot of people (including me) will have to simply stop using their products, not even because of privacy, just because I doubt a Linux computer without a camera or old iPhone model will work for them.

Some argue that users without biometric authentication will be flagged suspicious and pressured to hand over biometric data. But honestly, I think so many people will stick to regular passwords, and more will be physically unable to use biometric passwords, so it won’t work.

Overall I think having the option to use biometric authentication is a net positive. Companies want them to get user data, but non-technical people want them because (when done right) they’re a lot easier and more secure than passwords.
I actually have a need for something like this. I wrote a single-user flashcard app which supports multi-device sync. The way I sync is having each device write to its own journal file a list of commands, such as "create card" or "update card with ID 1234" or "insert card evaluation". To "sync", each device just pushes up its journal to a common file store and pulls down each other device's journals. Then it just plays back all the edits in timestamp order. (It works fine for single-user since you're very unlikely to be using two devices at the exact same time.)

Anyway, I never did end up implementing an optimal "update card with ID 1234". If you edit a flashcard's front text, instead of updating the front text field alone, I ended up just writing out an entirely new copy of the flashcard in the journal (with the ID 1234 encoded). Super inefficient.

I was toying with the idea of coming up with a simpler format that does basically what this JSON patch does, where you an just encode "update object 1234's field foo.bar.baz to string ABC".

I figured I'd only need a handful of operations, to insert a new object, replace a node in an object's property tree given a key path, delete an object, append to an array property, etc.

If anyone has other solutions other than JSON Patch, I'd love to hear about them.
This is HN. we welcome diversity of views. this view you espouse, is not actually a minority view, but still, its a divisive topic.

I'm a high tax kinda guy. If we all had Norway taxes, we'd have Norway sovereign fund and EV and lifestyle (but maybe without SAD, because we're not all that far north)

Disable ipv6 like everybody does.
It's the logical next step in the evolution of JSON:

- XML/XSLT

- JSON/JSONPatch
It's a nice success story, but OpenVINO is notoriously finicky. Quantization works, but there is almost always a degradation in accuracy which does not seem to be benchmarked.

There are no free lunches.
It is disruptive to have pronoun activists such as yourself wandering in and derailing the conversation.

They used to be worse! The original 6L16 EOG didn't have the "A". It was neither Automated nor Advanced, the only "A" it had was operated by A-gangers!

3k-lbs of pure O2 combined with a reputation for fires, rapid depressurizations, and hydraulic leaks. More than one auxiliaryman got blasted to bits by those things back in the '60s. Every submariner thinks theirs is a unique and special hell, but I don't envy those who went underway with the old O2 plants.
It's one of those irregular verbs, isn't it? I do business, he is cheating, they are corrupt.
That's like laughing that a program for a text editor is longer than a text file; or a git history for a file is longer than the file.
It's remarkable, though maybe not very surprising, how much more subjective the design-related smells are than the low-level concerns smells.
Exhaled air is about 17% oxygen, 4% carbon dioxide. So, as previous poster noted, scrubbing the CO2 is your first priority. You can't breathe air with greater than about 4% CO2 indefinitely. Oxygen levels lower than 15% are also bad.

Diving rebreathers are an interesting implementation of these rules in that they are lethal if you get it wrong.
Tether doesn't have a yield; did you mean a particular platform that takes deposits?
> Upgrading Postgres is a big task in and of itself.

Learnt it the hard way when I first upgraded the major version, Only to realize that the data needs to be migrated first. pg_upgrade requires binaries of the older version and so we need copies of data, as well as binaries of old & new version of postgres[1] i.e. if not manually dumped; Fortunately it was just my home server.

We should rather compare AV1 to VVC aka H.266.
The first subject of skepticism must always be yourself. Science is the enterprise to stop fooling ourselves. Scepticism without it is meaningless.
Looking at the development, it seems to be a mostly academical project that spills over into media.

Don't underestimate it. For example, hardcore German nationalism was once very popular in academic circles of Germany and Austria-Hungary (the German speaking part, of course). A normal Hans from the street, just like you, couldn't care less about what the students say and shout, and Vienna, Terst, Prague and Krakow were nice multicultural cities. At least on their surface.

Until 1914. It is possible that without this toxic undercurrent that attacked the Austrian state for decades and moved it closer to imperial Germany against its own interest, the Great War wouldn't have happened.
I find your message confusing, when you say price, do you talk about final retail price or production cost? (fruits and vegetable are high margin products in food distribution)
When you talk about energy, do you take into account human labour? Natural ressources are considered free in our current economic system, that is why it is cheaper to grow food by damaging the amazonian forest with nasty coal/oil fed machine rather than doing local permaculture with more human beings and passive tools.
Hey, I'm ~$3,000 in which isn't zero but also isn't that meaningful.

I'm holding and taking no action (ie, not buying more). It's at the risk exposure I'm comfortable with.

Then again I held my shares in sun microsystems until the very end. No regrets on that either.

This is not financial advice, I'm probably a fool. FWIW, UST is recovering way quicker then my positions in Nvidia and Adobe are. It's back to $0.92.

In an environment where companies like Rivian are down over 90% and across the board 75% stock price drops are common right now, recovering in 24 hours is pretty great

This is the hardest part about going from Fintech to AI/ML for me, it all seems like it's vaporware and you really don't know where to apply your skillset from previous work in several Industries. My focus is on AI/ML based solutions for Supply Chain and Logistics, because it's already broken and needed a re-work for the last 2 decades.

But I'm realizing that there is almost no way to raise these kind of funds and still have a viable business model beyond just setting arbitrary benchmarks and re-tooling your term sheet to reflect the 'new way' things are done in this space now.

I'm still wondering if this twitter stream [0] is just a calloused AI guy ranting, or is it as prophetic as it was when I projected practically the same thing for enterprise based 'blockchains.'

My dillema is wondering how Tesla and Mercedes are all trying to solve FSD, but at the same time we have things like Kiwibot which rely on people piloting them via Wifi from developing countries and pay them sub-standard wages ($2-3/Hr) to deliver food to affluent college kids on campuses. We already have doordash and all of it's incarnations that are bloated with VC money, how can this be a thing?

>Memorizing stuff that any reference book can tell you is a waste of time and skill.

If you are ill, would you prefer a surgeon that will search on Google doing surgery, ore or one that knows how to do it?

Would you be happy to fly with a pilot that will search on Google how to land?

>And rest assured, there is no value in writing a binary tree for the business. As a matter of fact if one of my dev doesn't use off the shelf components for these kind of things they'd get a stern talking about time efficiency, security and the likes. Why would I go and stress that at a interview?

Of course, for trivial stuff you won't need binary trees. But you're wrong in assuming all software is trivial and all problems are solvable with library calls.

And even for trivial stuff it's important to know and understand the underlying principles and how software and infrastructure works. Otherwise you will take bad decisions like searching lists instead of hash maps. And bad decisions will cost your employer money. Sometimes a lot of money.

So yes, knowledge matters. And experience matters. And problem solving skills matter.

I switched companies which meant moving from Zulip to Slack. I don’t understand why people like Slack or what they like about the UI.

Threading is terrible, async catchup is difficult, gif links don’t convert cleanly, group DMs are limited to 8 users then Slack suggests creating a new channel…?!
Probably worth it at scale.
The problem with changing the wondow/pane nomenclature is that it is tied with the naming of many elisp functions. Changing the first without the others would be confusing and changing the elisp functions is going to pointlessly break compatibility with thousands of scripts.
Waterfall as criticised by Agile followers is mostly a myth. It is a mythical monster designed to instill fear and guide developers along the righteous path of Agile. Of course enlightenment can only be reached with expensive Agile training consultants as you are doomed to fail if you walk alone in the valley of the shadow of project failure.

So pretty much USDC, BUSD, or USDT where there is a company who will buy / sell it for $1.00? Else how do you envision it working?
Your solution to insecure passwords is to hand the keys of the internet to a small number of companies? This is beyond ridiculous.

Not only this creates single points of failure, it also entrenches the already existing monopolies out there. (not to mention forcing everyone to dox themselves by providing biometrics)
It’s not really a “record collection”, though, is it? I thought it was more like a Hall of Fame
IIRC there was a book called "how the city works" which I read as a junior trader. That's a non technical interview of what kinds of roles there are in finance, explaining what all the different players do.
Except those based on Navi 24 (6400/6500) IIRC.
Is there such a thing as a portable c02 scrubber - other than a plant?
This comparison is in the RFC the article links to.
Looks really cool, like docker for programmers.
The "punk" in "cyberpunk" basically just refers to the protagonists being punks (i.e. a scumbag) and doesn't really refer to the ideals of "punk" as a subculture. That is to say it's tied to "punk" as a pejorative to mean sleazy lowlifes who are probably drug addicts or criminals or both.

No? For many years almost every smartphone on the market ships with fingerprint reader or face recognition acting as an alternative to pin-code.

The US government is the worlds largest charity, it also does a lot of other things. However it accepts donations and supports the poor, arts and sciences etc.

There are even plenty of things people might want to donate too that only governments do, the Red Cross etc are hardly building space telescopes or US highways.

Back in the 1990's, while disappointed with IDE situation on UNIX I ended up landing on XEmacs, which was way better than Emacs back then.

Used it enough until 2005 to get it several features burned on my brain.

Nowadays I really don't see the point, and ironically neither does the creator of XEmacs.

JSON Patch seems like a good solution.
Especially because they came so close so early with Google Wave! That was it, I think, but Google didn't have the confidence at the time to stick with it, and it was just too unpolished to keep out in the public at a time when everyone thought that whatever Google did was gold.

Seriously, I think the Wave ideas were the ones that hit the perfect feature-set for informal electronic business communication.
Any way to get a desktop client for this.

Many orgs are outright banning Docker Desktop due to it's licensing.
To counterpoint some of the negative comments.
People make guides to emacs because you need to learn to be able to use it efficiently.
This is in clear opposition to modern IDEs where you can somewhat get by without learning anything (although that becomes false quite fast).

However, this learning is foundational and compose with almost everything you want to do as a programmer.
When you start using line/words based edits, performing a git rebase becomes much faster and comfortable. You start 'grokking it'.
On the other end of the spectrum, you have colleagues who are 'experienced programmers' who use VSCode and therefore need help any time they don't understand the messages git spew out to them when pushing the git button does not work.
It's one example, but you'll learn regex, vim, maybe even some lisp!

With all that said, I've been learning some emacs and even though it taught me a lot, the experience has been bumpy.
I loved Spacemacs shortcuts design, but I've encountered multiple bugs that make it hang at boot, etc.
I'll probably restart with emfy or something like that soon.
The biggest issue with this idea that we can achieve universal access is that we are notoriously bad at predicting the future.

Would you know to ensure every HS student needs access to a computer and programming classes in the 90s?

Would you make sure every student takes a course on blockchains and NFTs today? Does each student need to know ML? Should each kid get Oculus hardware and learn 3d modeling so they can design for the metaverse?

Should we have a class on how to make TikTok videos? If you take the number of newly minted millionaires from the youngest generation, this is probably the one to pick but most people considered social media a scourge and the antithesis of what you should teach in order to provide equality.
All communication tools are bad. It's about what you will tolerate. And Slack is pretty decent there.
I've never used m4 directly, but it might be interesting to look at. I'll try to make some time to look around for information on this. If you have any pointers to get started, I'd be very interested.
Uhm, it's the public key, and yes pretty much anyone can have my public key. That's why it's called the "public" key. The private key never leaves the dongle, much like in a hardware cryptocurrency wallet.

I really fail to understand the whole confusion about FIDO, the amount of misinformation in the threads here (like in the parent comment) is staggering. It is a fantastic invention for expanding privacy& security. Maybe a lot of people confuse it with "log-in with X"?
How do you delete fields? What about complex documents with dozens of nested fields?

For really simple use cases you don't need this but I've used something similar for an application where the JSON documents could get in the megabytes and it was a lifesaver.
I have no idea what you are hinting at. Making guesses at other people‘s intentions and spewing one-liners doesn’t exactly invite a discussion. If you don’t like to discuss, why post here?

Sending it with different HTTP verbs might do the trick. For your example:

{
"baz": "boo"
}

DELETE would remove baz, PATCH would change baz, and PUT would, in effect, remove foo.
