Am I the only one who is not excited by this new web idea ? As a web developer, we have to deal with framework and library major reinventions every couple of years and now you are telling me that you are going to reinvent browser rendering engines that we need to develop and test and then also your crappy reinventions . Thanks but no thanks . Please just build on top of giants . Not reinvent everything all the time .
For now we’re just not using DJI near frontlines, where instead Autel is usually chosen, especially the ones with thermal sights. Being able to use open firmware would definitely be awesome, to protect lives of operators and to customize drones further.

That the government demands US dollars is completely orthogonal to the value of the dollar. They can demand a weaker dollar or demand a stronger dollar. Argentina demands Argentina pesos, but their currency is embarrassingly weak. Their attempt to increase demand to their currency by taxing exchanging to foreign currency predictably has no nothing to control inflation.
Bacteria and fungi are an important part of soils. It's part of the reason that there are culture solutions you can purchase for gardens.

Mycorrhiza for example is very important for the growth of certain types of herbs and vegetables (and really just a large number of plants in general).

Likewise bacteria are one of the major legs of one of the major ecological processes that's essential for sustaining life on Earth (the nitrogen cycle). The bacteria in soil convert nitrogen gas from the air (which breathes into the soil) into various nitrate compounds which are then absorbed by plants' roots (this is why fertilizer often contains ammonium nitrate). Bacteria are also involved in the phosphorus cycle as well however to a lesser degree. Really micro-organisms in the soil are involved in varying degrees for each of the biogeochemical cycles that life on earth depend on.
My point is that the ships telemetry was not an issue. Blaming electric vehicles with no basis, or lack of telemetry with clear evidence to the contrary is…something.
Thanks for your comment @ehaughee!

Great questions. I answered some above, so I'll copy some and then answer your other questions below:

>> what's it doing?

Bud server-side renders Svelte files, then hydrates them on the client. This is similar to what most other JS frameworks do, it works like this:

1. Create two builds: one for server, one for browser. Both are built using ESBuild. In development, builds happen lazily upon request, similar to how a CDN like esm.sh would build JS to be imported. This will hopefully allow the build system to scale for larger apps. Vite was my inspiration here, but it's all done in Go.

2. V8 and the Svelte compiler are baked into the bud binary. When a request comes in, V8 evaluates the compiler running the server-built page and returns HTML. That's a mouthful, hopefully that makes sense.

>> what gets sent across the wire?

What gets sent over the wire is HTML. That HTML then has a script tag which requests the client-side version of the page that's used to hydrate the HTML and make the page interactive.

>> How big is the binary for the HN demo?

I just checked the binary size and it's 47.6 MB. It's mostly V8 right now, but will definitely get larger as you add more assets. I haven't tested it yet, but hopefully you'll be able to rsync just the diffs to a server.

>> What's the story for static assets like video or images

You can add them in the public/ directory. There's documentation here: https://denim-cub-301.notion.site/Hey-Bud-4d81622cc49942f991...

I don't understand the context. Why is this a big deal? Why would 90% of the employees bail?
> I have never understood the need for TPM's.

that phrase alone renders any opinions of the entire article invalid. I stopped reading at that sentence, because it conveys a complete lack of understanding of the problems that TPMs, and Pluton, solve.
It's basic math. Society lost x in purchasing power through lost wages via unemployment, and you inject 10x in stimulus, what do you think is going to happen?

This was Larry Summers' argument, backed with real numbers. Nobody passing these bills ever considered whether it was too much. You have the two top economists for both Clinton and Obama saying it was too much and being outspoken about the issues with how the bill was constructed. I don't know where current politicians lost all economic sense along the way, but it was the zeitgeist of the moment to spend as recklessly as possible

All they had to do was replace lost income for unemployed, and leave pretty much everything else untouched and things would have been fine. No need for debt forbearance, because you've supported income for those who lost their jobs. But needs to be structured such that incentive to return to work.

Now most of the impact of the stimulus will be destroyed by inflation
Free stuff makes us irrational
How do you distinguish cause and effect there? Assume intelligence is correlated with income and that intelligence is a heritable trait. On average, higher IQ people would achieve higher socioeconomic status and pass those traits onto their children.

Curious - why is this recorder not a floating device (which broadcasts its position) so that it could be retrieved easily? It's not like it needs to record the ship's descent to the bottom. Or is the primary function of this device unrelated to sinking?
Somewhat fun annectode about that:

As my thesis in uni I was parallelizing some genetic analysis algorithm that a team published a paper about. I ended up with clean code with good speedup but my results were completely off from what was could be found in the initial paper. After weeks of pulling my hair out I looked into the actual code the paper was based on and found out that at some point they hardcoded a constant in such a way that there would always be a division by zero somewhere down the line which messed with their results. Been very sceptical of „peer-reviewed“ CS stuff ever since.

I doubt they will particularly care if you just honestly tell them how much you bought them for. Surely with all the potential means of acquiring crypto (from another private person even), you would not have to always show an exchange ledger to prove their value at the point of purchase? Many people would presumably be facing the same situation. Not sure if this would be a good reason to stop you, just my 2 cents.
So, don’t ship cars then. Tweak cities for micro mobility and walking.

Also: a couple of burned and sunk ships is a much cheaper price to pay than climate change. If the cost of the odd lithium fire is a lot, wait till you factor in the costs of the emissions of an ICE over the vehicle lifetime.

This reeks of FUD during the death throes of the petrochemical industry, tbh.
I should add that lazy builds only happen in development. In production, it's all bundled at once.
Resume-Based Development.

My employees are the same. They want to tick all new tech boxes with our product, and they’re right, because they exit with 35% higher pay elsewhere (and I clearly don’t underpay them - this market seems to have no upward limit, and the only thing I’d like from them is taking ownership and responsibility, and it’s not happening).

At age 9 and 10, I was travelling every day alone in a city bus to school through a city in Poland in early nineties. Nothing ever happened to me. I don't think there was particularly that much violent crime even then. Car thefts, OTOH, were pretty common until the mid 2000s when the police and state got the hang of it.

> I think OP is talking about people who literally can't code, yet list a track record of 10 years successfully writing C++ code on their resume.

> then sitting down with them and they can't even come up with a for loop

If someone has been writing succesful production code in C++ for ten years, there is zero possibility they can't write a for loop. I hope you do realize that is not actually possible.

What is extremely likely, is that they get subjected to a random algorithm memorization puzzle question for something they've never seen before under the extreme stress of an interview and then the interviewer extrapolates from that to assume "they can't write a for loop".
no, they're describing an fTPM.

pro-privacy people always seem to lack a lot of understanding around modern security landscapes and make a lot of assumptions that aren't true anymore (if they ever were).

I mean no offense, by the way, it makes me want to conceive a modern security primer for privacy advocates, because the community appears to have fallen behind a bit. like any community that focuses on one thing, that focus is often at the expense of other things.

> Well there are reputable institutions who will vouch for the surgeons experience. Literally anyone can put that they have 7 years experience as a software developer on their cv

The reputable institution is called their previous employer(s). If someone has worked for a recognized company for 7 years writing production code, that's the same as the surgeon having done those 7 years in a reputable hospital.

There actually is a bug filed against GCC [1] because it searches a linked list for headers using #pragma once and searches a hash table for headers using include guards. The performance difference is noticable for translation units that include a lot of headers.

This is an evasive response.

If so, then aren't you agreeing that the parent commentator is actually correct? If not, why not?

I'm currently in late stages with Better, and holy crap is this company on fire (not in a good way).

I've been using them for 3 months exactly, and on my 5th advisor. An advisor is your sole point of contact for the loan... questions, concerns, documents, everything. They don't tell you when the advisor changes, you just notice by chance the little initial emoji of your advisor changed. Realize this means the previous one left, or got fired.

They have no real ticketing. Each worker has a unique and seemingly private email and text...so you start fresh with each one. To the point you don't even want to ask questions, because they'll just fire the person you asked and you'll start fresh again...a week before closing...

The site and flow are slick, that's what drew me in. But the company as a whole is odd and I'd highly recommend not using them.
You implied the tech stock boom wasn't due to a low discount rate, yet the valuations today are far higher than tech stocks in the 80s, even at comparable growth rates.

Which makes it plainly obvious that a lot of the valuation gains are, in fact, due to the discount rate, and not organic growth.

3x of Apple's market cap growth since 2018 is a change in valuation multiple, and nothing to do with actual growth of its revenue/profits, for example. Is it a boom if a majority of your gains are due to changing the valuation peg and leaving the rest the same? Sounds more like a bubble to me

Though my point is more directed towards the 100x PS companies, which are a far more egregious example of overvaluation

Interesting. I didn't know much about the LUNA ecosystem outside of UST, but it looks like they had built quite a bit of applications: https://www.terra.money/ecosystem

I don't know what stages these projects were in, but it is pretty sad to see all the engineering effort go to waste. I hope some of these will be salvaged and ported to other blockchains somehow.
> Examples were given about how those things are accomplished today.

yes, but if the TPM is external to the CPU, as all are, the traffic to and from the TPM can be intercepted and the security provided is gone. even firmware TPMs store their data in flash, external to the CPU, and are therefore completely insecure to someone with physical access.

see: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29258879

the only way to secure a device with a TPM today is to require a PIN on boot, and not rely on the TPM entirely. that is a huge pain in the ass and a more secure solution is needed. Pluton addresses this.

Corporate IT administrators DO NOT want attackers with a stolen laptop installing anything, or using the device in any way. This is the situation Pluton is for. it is not designed to prevent a rightful owner from anything at all, ever.

why do people who are concerned about their own privacy and security never seem to understand things like this? I do not understand.

I'll spell it out: entities who are NOT individuals own computers too, and the data on these devices is of extreme importance to those non-human entities. correctly administering these machines is of extreme importance to these non-human entities, as well.

those entities are why Pluton and the Intel Management Engine, respectively, exist.

>> What are your plans for models and persistence?

I haven't worked out all the details, but it's going to be some blend of https://github.com/xo/xo and https://sqlc.dev/.

Design goals:

1. High-level, type-safe "ORM" that's generated from your database schema.

2. sqlc as a fallback to cover the more complex SQL queries in a type-safe way.

The hard part is going to figuring out how to support extending the ORM with your own custom methods, hooks, computed fields etc.

That's pretty silly. This is like claiming the world would be fundamentally different if we used <em> instead of <b>. Anyone who thinks this is remotely useful is already doing it by either using ajax or by just overloading POST. We do not save development time by renaming a concept.

It took them over a decade to get just a few grams of regolith for the test. You can't exactly support mature plants in a few grams of soil, particularly "soil" that is expected to perform poorly. Especially if you want to test multiple plants and therefore need to further subdivide the meager amounts of regolith they have.

Proving this basic initial step will open up the avenue for further research with larger amounts of regolith in the hopefully near future.
So you learn no? I'm sure the way fuel was carried during World War 1 is not the way the US Military carries it now.

Special ships? That probably depends on the economics. If the Electric Car Industry makes it worth a shippers while - Someone will invest in a special purpose vehicle.

So now we are at the first stages of this - in time - if the industry succeeds - the money will come.

> Have you ever interviewed someone whose resume looked good but who couldn't code basic things?

How would you possibly know they can't code basic things?

Did you hire them and over many months it turned out they actually can't code a basic thing?

Or did you ask some arbitrary algorith memorization question, completely unrelated to the actual job so of course it's not something they do day to day, and they didn't give the perfect performance balanced just right between pretending they haven't seen it before and acting like they're deriving a decade of CS research on the whiteboard in 45 minutes out of the blue?

I'm betting on the second.

I think that's inherent in the definition of a chemical battery.

Sustaining an electrical charge difference across the poles of the cell by undergoing a chemical reaction.

For the common NMC batteries used in cars, I think the other metals start as oxides, which get reduced to oxidise the lithium.

In any case, I doubt that an inert atmosphere would help much.

A better approach might be to have high-capacity water pipes pre-plumbed to allow flood cooling of the affected cars. Possibly from underneath.
EVs catch fire drastically less than combustion fueled vehicles because they don't involve explosive materials. Also we ship giant ships full of oil and gas all over the world every single day which is vastly more combustible than batteries.
I really enjoyed scrolling through more than half the article before finding the answer.

Part of it seems to be the lifestyle choices that smarter people tend to make: namely, that they smoke at much lower rates. Similarly, smarter people are more likely to follow other healthy practices, have a better handle on their health care, and be less likely to work in a job that puts them at physical risk.

Socioeconomic status could play a role as well, perhaps allowing people to access better education and care
