I have to say that I just enter into coding at my 50's, obviously not pursuing a carrer on it but just to do interesting things, mostly in the Audio field. Always loved code but probably (well, for sure) made wrong decisions in the past which took me elsewhere. Some how, life put me back into a place that got me closer to it and to the opportunity to learn about it with purpose. My only point is, never too late for sure. About competition:
if > My only goal is to increase my earning potential, like in other sectors that you can tackle it by focusing on the less crowded places, not very popular languages, not very poular fileds of action.

I'm now passionate and trying to learn LISP to apply it in the Audio and Sound field, if that counsel you, probably im much hopeless :D.
It's impossible for me to over-stress how toxic the GOP has been to any kind of productive conversation about fetal rights as a concept and how transparently opportunistic they've been about using abortion as a means to preserve power, lock in voters, and push back on progressive policies in general.

It makes it incredibly difficult to talk to many pro-life people about abortion in any context, because there's a huge effort happening to convince Evangelical voters that:

A) literally any sympathy for the parent, nuance, or lack of ferver is the same as wanting the unborn to die.

B) it's a primarily religious issue and that being an Evangelical means voting a certain way and aligning with a set of political issues, and that conversations about abortion must be approached through a religious lens.

C) that because it's a religious issue, there is one singular "correct" way to focus on reducing abortion, and any deviation from that specific strategy is literally a religious failing.

I see people just shut down during conversations about abortion, like even talking about it is itself a sin.

----

There is still a lot of nuance; I'm not trying to lump an entire group together or demonize people or say that Evangelical conservatives all collectively hate women. But there is (to me) a very obvious intentional push coming from some parts of the political spectrum and from some Church leaders to eliminate any nuance or openness that those people have -- to get people to approach abortion though a very specific lens and to only ever acknowledge or think about that specific lens, because those leaders/politicians see it as a really convenient way to create an identity that requires people to vote/associate in a certain way, to demonize people who those leaders/politicians would like them to demonize, and to go even further and tie that political identity to people's religious security in a way that is inherently dangerous for them to question or examine.

As a result, it then becomes easier for people to tie that religious identity to other political topics as well; the more that pro-life becomes shorthand for Christian, and the more that Christian becomes shorthand for "votes Republican", the easier it is to pick out other social/political issues (wealth inequality, LGBTQ+ rights, racial justice, even entirely amoral, purely practical questions about things like economic policy), and to say that deviation from the expected party position is literally a sin and that non-party positions are guilty by association with the enemy.

And again, definitely not all Evangelicals and absolutely not all Christians. I grew up in white Evangelical communities; I see their flaws and their occasional strengths. And regardless of the flaws I still care about people in that community. But it is a very concerning problem that the Church needs to grapple with; at some point something needs to break and white Evangelicals need to decide whether their primary identity is Christian or Republican.
Agreed, it seems most of these changes to the recommendation system are for the masses who don't really care or just let autoplay choose everything for them, and not the kind of people who browse HN
You can literally defend almost any action by the argument that they are just maximizing their gains. Clearly they are. Should we roll over and accept it?
What about the potential mineral leeching issue with RO? I use a RO filter and mix it with 30% glass bottled water, both for taste and in hopes of avoiding any potential issue with leeching. I searched a bit but found nothing useful on the topic.
One of my favorite sequences in any movie. I will never forget the visuals of workmen sweltering in front of flaming portholes in the bell's cast. Enduring a little inferno, to create the sound of heaven! Thank you for reminding me of it. :)
Didn't you just describe most silicon valley VC funded startups ? I feel like you can replace Netflix with a lot of other companies, throw in their well known weakness and it would still make sense.
> I would hate to give my potential tippers a way out by letting them leave after scanning a QR code and then not using it because they are lazy, which they almost certainly are.

It's got nothing to do with laziness. Tips shouldn't be expected, and the difference between a QR code and a tip jar isn't going to change whether people think the service was deserving of a tip.

A better answer to cashless tips is just to allow customers to add it on to their total and collect it with the card payment. It's done that way in increasingly many restaurants in the UK and EU, especially with the decline of cash and a growing preference for contactless payments during the pandemic. No need for yet another service when the existing stuff handles it.
Microservices was always a solution to the organisational problem of getting more developers working on a system at once.

It may be a solution, but there were already solutions for that. As far as I remember, the orignal argument of microservices was to allow different teams to use whatever languages/tools they choose, as long as they provided an API. As opposed to having IT, payroll, and sales all having to wait for one development team to make everything. Then with docker and containers it became that you could isolate deployments, and scale out just the parts that need it. Which is great if you need to minimize outages, and have some parts of your system that get major spikes in traffic, and you decide it's worth the extra complexity.

Looks like Goldman Sachs got a call telling them the SEC police was coming and got out of the party in a hurry ( and what a party it has been.. )

Only retail investors ( aka suckers ) will be holding the bag/beer, as always.

I'm curious to know if Goldman Sachs already has an alternative scheme/scam running or it's a case of "chilling out for awhile".
Actually I don't hate cryptocurrency, I just find it silly and pointless. Sort of like collecting and trading baseball cards.

I feel dumb for entirely unrelated reasons.
Space is big, even LEO. As long as the large majority of all satellites have active collision avoidance, and coordinate between them, this shouldn’t be a problem. I’m not sure if there’s an international body working to coordinate this, but there should be.

Starship, if successful, will also change the economics of bringing down non-maneuverable satellites. I could see SpaceX cleaning up space junk as a public service.

Uplink/downlink bandwidth is licensed by the countries being uplinked/downlinked from/to, so that’s on them. China will no doubt not grant SpaceX a license.

Lots of space tech is “dual use”, e.x. GPS and many other communication satellites. As long as SpaceX isn’t hiding warheads on Starlink satellites or something I don’t see a problem.
This combines 2 of my favorite things: games and spreadsheets. However, it isn't generating any excitement in me. Just some feeling of dread and gloominess. I guess, its because in my mind I don't want games (pleasure) and spreadsheets (work) to mix.
Emotionally, I really get it. We feel positive towards positive thoughts and vice versa for negative ones. But in the context of information, a "recommender" that recommends everything is equivalent to one that recommends nothing: both are worthless (ie can't provide any new information)
What is "Three"?
Multi-platform ones. Don't worry about "native" apps unless it is multi-platform or you'll get too tied to a specific eco-system and won't be able to migrate if you need to.
Interesting choice to double down on a power hungry chip when targeting mobile. Personally I would prioritise battery life and a quiet laptop above other considerations. But perhaps the gaming laptop segment they’re targeting is big enough that it makes sense?

I had an iPod something-or-other, and I think it gave Spotify the idea of shuffling maybe 45 songs of thousands over-and-over, and completely ignoring 93 percent of the music.

Exactly my strategy. I take some time pre-treating my face, so I get about 4 days/blade.
I don't know about the NUCs specifically, but I thing there should be a YMMV disclaimer in this recommendation.

From what I've seen, these kinds of small PCs are basically a laptop-in-a-box, but usually pack a desktop-class CPU. Which means that the cooling system can sometimes have a hard time.

I personally have an HP EliteDesk 800 mini, which I initially liked for its compact size while at the same time being able to have 2 NVME drives and one SATA. Boy do I hate it. Even at idle, the fan makes a terrible noise. Throw any kind of work at it for more that 10 seconds, and it starts to ramp up.

My work probook from the same era has a joke for a cooler, yet it's still quieter most of the time. The CPU is noticeably slower (i5-8xxxU), though for running a random home server it's probably good enough.
I understand how annoying stalking on the HN forum must be — I have literally 1 question about YC application (it's NOT "Can you revise the whole thing?")

It is my understanding that the contract with you is APLv2, and he can't one-sidedly change that.

However, nothing is guarantied about the future license of the project. The rights holder could only release future versions under a proprietary license. Meaning buying rights assignment is buying the future of the project. Of course everyone forks and leaves if you get to draconian up front, so you have to slow boil that frog.
Hey, I'm the co-founder of TinySeed (and also a YC alumn), would be happy to connect: einar@tinyseed.com
10+ Retro PCs from 386 to Pentium 4 (with all the obligatory graphics cards (3DFX, TNT2 Ultra, PowerVR etc.), sound cards (GUS, Adlib, SB Pro, AWE32/64, etc.) and MIDI modules (Roland MT-32, SoundCanvas, etc.)
And the parts to build 30+ more in the basement.

6 or 7 Sun Machines, SGI O2, a few Cobalt RaQ (CacheRaQ, Velociraptor) (both MIPS and x86). Also in the basement.

5 HP Microservers (one with a "low power" Xeon running 24/7). ~50W

3 "Low power" Xeon servers (two 4 cores and one 20 cores). One running 24/7 ~60W.

3 Intel NUC's. One is my daily driver (FreeBSD).

15+ Laptops (mostly IBM/Lenovo), and even an old 386.

6 PCEngines APU4C4 (firewalls) two running 24/7 ~7W each.

7 Soekris NET4801, 2 NET4501 (my old firewalls and NTP servers).

7 Raspberry PIs (mostly 4s with 8GB).

My plan is to have one APU (~7W) + one Server ~60W running 24/7. I have 7 APC power units to allow me to turn all the other stuff on and off remotely. Most of this stuff is in my lab (GF decided I needed my own room for some reason). Most of the stuff not ready to run is stored in the basement.

I have a lot more than these but this is just from the top of my head. Pretty sure that I have 100+ all in all.
At a company I work at currently, they have microservices, but they moved the monolith into the side-car. Best of both worlds.

Check on https://www.cosdna.com/ a distributed effort to document what is being sold where at different times.

If you look that site, any big brand (and neutrogena, which is just a front for J&J today, is the biggest you can get) will show dozens of variations for each product. All around the same geographic region and time frame.
I'm not in my mid thirties any more. Just no longer buy my own insurance and instead am on my wife's employers. I can report though in early 40s rates haven't changed a lot yet. Maybe in my 50s.

Really, this is cultural. I don't know anyone it bugs, to just look at the tag and add the tax in their head.

I could make some quip about math skills, but I know people in the EU, etc aren't lacking. Which is why this is cultural.
The UK government did promise to reduce the grounds for noise complaints about church bells, on the grounds that normally they were there before the complainant arrived, and would still be there long after they were gone, but it appears it was like many government promises...

The iPod touch has got to be the last PDA. Smartphones are the realization of the '90s vision of PDAs, with cellular capability and additional features included, but it's interesting how standalone PDAs no longer exist.
Great, then they surely won't hesitate now to release any and all documentation for their old hardware, to prevent millions of devices from becoming useless junk even though they're perfectly fine, hardware wise. I've got a nice iPod touch 6th gen here that will be perfect as an mp3 player on linux or rockbox.

Gonna hold my breath now, okay? :)

i was just about to suggest this. A little known gem. :D
Assuming a dev is committing (ball park) 4 times per day, that's in the region of $55k/year per developer, or $16.5M/year all in. Thats not cheap...
> I definitely wouldn't employ a 21yr old me to manage a complex project.

Nor a 30-year-old with just as much experience.
I guess that was destined to happen.

I still use my 6th generation iPod Nano, mostly for radio, but the usefulness of it is dwindling as more and more stations move away from the FM-band and go digital, it's still a cool device and it also still works with Music/iTunes.
It is a matter of scale.

In the video, I bring this up to Noam towards the end. He actually disagrees, that audience is a form of capital. He says it is influence, but not capital. Even though one can do the same operations with it as with any capital, including exchanging it for other forms of capital etc.

You are just USED to celebrity culture, and following what Jonny Depp or Will Smith does can even overshadow a war in Ukraine or humanitarian crisis in Yemen. Four Libyan ambassadors matter more than millions of Libyans.

On Wikipedia or in NGinX there are no celebrities, except maybe the founders. And it is far far more useful and popular than their closed-source capitalist alternatives: Britannica/Encarta and Internet Information Server. They power more machines and serve more people in more ways.

And you bet that there are a lot of operating system maintainers that put software like nginx and php through their paces before giving their members access.

If you don’t like a centralized organization vetting things, then have various distros, like Linux. The point is that the author shouldn’t also be the one vetting each new version and what changed. Security researchers should be.

Your argument for “free speech absolutism” would fail in science and any endeavor that actually matters to people. For humor, entertainment and idle discussion, maybe we can have celebrities.

But yes — my video would normally not matter if not for Noam Chomsky’s amassed reputation and audience. The content in my video would be far better published as part of a collaborative discussion rather than an off-the-cuff one. But a chat between two non-celebrities would be fine for society… people could watch it for entertainment, or whatever. It wouldn’t move markets or convince people of crazy theories about 9/11 or QANON pedophiles.

There is a limit to how much power should be concentrated in one place.
Major language crush... Everything from the type system to the compilation model to c++ compat just oozes good taste. Glorious structural record types, real union types (my running theory is that expression-based languages lacking these - looking at you, rust - are insufferable) AND variants. Pattern matching, slices, unboxed arrays/primitives, eager evaluation... Damn I love it.

Hobbes looks so totally frickin' awesome, I'm so going to play with this tonight.

Incredible work!

What would be really cool for this language is to hook into jupyterlab via xeus. It's not even that hard to do - I did it for my own (far inferior) toy language.

But also, according to Conway's Law, you end up with a product with leaky abstractions that reveal the underlying micro-services and org structure.
Agree. But the good thing is, you don't have to entirely give up your awesome turbo cartridge shave. I still will use one when I'm in a hurry or something. But my day-to-day shaving is done for far less money. I may buy a pack of cartridges every other year or so.
No.

Already most businesses are started in this broad middle.
It's where the TRUE root of entrepreneurship starts.

Heck, you are sure you will get no funding. For sure you will fight for every last customer. You will wonder how you will pay the rent every month and your staff.

Most of these businesses fail. But enough of them keep going to keep the economies of almost all countries going. These are the people that struggle.

There is no need for "funding" or someone to "buy" these businesses.

These business will always exist, and for every one that goes down 3 more spring up in their places.

Jesus.
End of an era. This was the last iPod still being sold right? Definitely one of the most impactful consumer products/brands ever.
51.1% of the United States (women) have a direct and personal stake in this issue. They care, although many don't think about it until it's actually their immediate problem, and then it might be too late.

As a male, I also care because the issue directly impacts people in my life that I care about. The pro-life side of the aisle is directly and viciously assaulting their bodily sovereignty and potentially their health and life.

The pro-lifers might be fighting for some nebulous "unborn" who they will likely never know and never have any real obligation to, but I'm fighting for my partner, my daughters, my sisters, my friends. And I'll be damned before I let some disgusting religious extremists create a system that enslaves them.
In fact, the de facto upper limit for laptop batteries is 100 watt hours since this is the largest battery size permitted on a flight by the FAA (the US air travel regulatory body) without special approval [1]. The CPU would drain such a battery in

Be honest.
A better solution would be to build modules independently and have a single service use each module. Then things are unified, each team has a client it must deliver to, and issues must be fixed in order for them to be released in the final product. How are microservices better? Often each service is out of sync with each other, one service will upgrade and break another, that’s not possible with a single source and multiple modules.

Hey folks,

Creator here, thank you for sharing this here - it seems there’s a decent bit of misunderstandings in the comments (particularly around the security model/monetary cost) so I’ll clarify some things:

- Your main wallet is never exposed to the game tiles, only a burner proxy wallet created for in-game interactions. This limits any attack surface area significantly.

- Frontend plug-ins are decently sandboxed and cannot learn things like “what’s your private key?” or make transactions on your behalf unless you explicitly approve it.

- This runs on a testnet L2 (Optimism Kovan) so it’s free to play - this is just meant to be a proof of concept exploration. Anyway, transaction costs are on the order of 1/100th of a cent on such L2s, so it’s really not prohibitively expensive to play the game even if it was with real money!

I’m a bit disappointed that most of the comments here pose rather shallow understanding of what’s interesting about exgrasia/blockchain as a data layer for games - I’d think nothing would excite fellow programmers more than the ability to build their own systems and mod it into a “world” without any limits/permissions on it :(
It is in the same vein as when a company uses "process optimization" to mean a firing round.

“Someone wrote a PhD thesis on bells” is a clickbait title. It implies the value of the content is merely the surprising or shocking concept that the content even exists. But looking at the page, that’s not what the content is about. It’s an earnest study into bells. Are we meant to point and laugh?
