Be curious. It's not a sketching app. It's literally endless paper w/ endless zoom levels, which is pretty sick to use in practice. Basically instead of creating "nested" board, you just zoom into the area/letter/shape and start whole new spatial universe there.

Plus it supports images, and drag-n-dropping them directly from other apps in a iPad split mode makes it a joy to use often.
I’d like to see a game that explores radio direction finding (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Direction_finding).

Maybe start simple with 2D maps - “your goal is to spot Russian ships within 100 miles of the US East Coast, where do you put some number of DF listening posts?”. Then maybe introduce topology - “how do you detect ships intruding in these Norwegian fjords, given the mountains of varying heights?”, etc.
> "[if] the concept is satisfied but not modeled, the program is ill-formed, no diagnostic required",

Couldn't find anything ressembling this in the section of the standard describing concepts and constraints. The spec is very clear (C++20 7.5.7.6):

> The substitution of template arguments into a requires-expression may result in the formation of invalid
types or expressions in its requirements or the violation of the semantic constraints of those requirements. In
such cases, the requires-expression evaluates to false; it does not cause the program to be ill-formed.

Maybe the stdlib has different ording, but the stdlib can literally have any wording it wants and could define std::integer to yield 2+2 = 5 without this being an issue.

> [ Yes that means in principle if you completely avoid the C++ standard library this doesn't apply to you... ]

in just a small library i'm writing, there's already ten-fold the number of concepts than there are defined in the standard library, so I'd say that this does not apply in general ; the stdlib is always an irrelevant special case and not representative of the general case of the language, no matter how hard some wish it. E.g. grepping for 'concept [identifier] =' in my ~ yields 2500 results, with only a small minority of those being the std:: ones.

> This might be a reasonable stance if the code wasn't written by people. But it is, and so the code is (or should be) an attempt to express their intent which is in fact semantics and not syntax.

I think this is very misguided. I am not programming for humans to process my code, but for computers to execute it. That's what comes first.

> Semantically this is indeed what you meant,

no, if I type std::totally_ordered, I mean "whatever the language is supposed to do for std::totally_ordered", and exactly nothing else
I highly doubt that is true - the South had no such inclinations towards the black population. Could we get a source?

I want a two-person local network game to play with my son (let's say 6-10yr age range). The game play should explicitly have a parent-player and kid-player with different difficulty of controls and types of actions. I think collaborative games will likely work better, but competitive might be fine too if it allows for different skill adjustments.

Just make the game fun for both of us, I'll play almost any genre (except violence).

The votes of large cities matter no more than an equal number of voters in rural counties in a popular vote (and you'll hear at least as much difference between the priorities of different groups of voters in the city). With the EC, votes in most states matter even less (not only are there not many voters to appeal to, picking up extra votes there isn't going to change the EC outcome). Just because California now gets ignored doesnt mean candidates don't also care even less about Alaska or Hawaii.

It's not even inherently unfair to populous areas, it's just extraordinarily skewed towards a few contestable states, mainly the large ones. A single suburb of Philadelphia and Miami matters more for a real world Presidential election campaign than most states.
does California still have snow caps?
Saying you don't discount it isn't the same as not discounting it. Are we all going to survive, or aren't we? If we aren't then I don't think you should say it!

It's like those signs we saw so much of in the first covid year "we'll all get through this together." Well, a million of us didn't, did they not count as "us?"

I don't know your politics here and I'm not trying to pick an ideological fight. I just wish it was more routine for people to acknowledge the actual human costs of large scale events. Keeping hope alive is necessary, but a recession will kill people, so "at least no one will die" can't be the hope you provide here.
LLVM Upcoming Project Policy Changes
I have a popular web based ascii text generator (https://patorjk.com/software/taag), it uses FIGlet driver that I wrote (https://github.com/patorjk/figlet.js/). Many of the other ones out there also use their own drivers (I've seen some written in php and python). There are also different types of ASCII text fonts out there other than FIGlet (ex: my app compiles fonts that were made in the AOL days in the Arial font - which is interesting because it's a non-monospaced font).

FIGlet is the most popular spec for these types of fonts though (it's an app and a spec). The mailing list hasn't been active in a decade, but people used to submit fonts there. It was cool to see what people made.

I'm pretty sure it was somewhere between late 1.0 and early 2.0, but I ended up in Carson City for a bit when it was coming online. Where they made a hole in the ocean, and turned into a city. A fun place to hang out and talk shit.

Yeah, I was replying about the confiscation comment.

Aren't there still a lot of unregistered guns in the rural areas? I had a friend who lived over there and said that was fairly common.
> I use citibank and they've recently announced that they're going back to the old ways of just declining the charge, and eliminating overdraft fees. Hopefully that's a trend that other banks are also following.

Planetscale is really being pushed on this site lately but all I see is theory and promises of doing things different for vague reasons. I hope I'm wrong or just not understanding something but it feels like a CEO trying to sell a product without understanding the technical reasons why a project like this hasn't existed before. I can't imagine that planetscale is going to solve something that Google, amazon, Facebook, apple, and Netflix all failed to solve for a similar use case and for well documented reasons.

Grats. That's awesome! How did you market it? Seems like weightlifting apps has to be a pretty saturated market. Also assuming its a native iOS app since there isn't an android equivalent. Were you an iOS developer in big tech? Building UIs feels so much nicer with the native frameworks, but I'm always hesitant to do so because writing the same app twice seems so grueling.

Great.

I just wish people would stop labeling "GMO == bad" so we can continue tailoring food to our needs - like we have been doing for millennia. Except now we can be more precise about it.

Anyone who's ever tried to grow tomatoes will attest that the damn things shouldn't exist. They are just as yummy to pests are they are to us. Even the grocery store ones that are selected for production and looking good are very finnicky.

Tomatoes were the size of blueberries originally. People will rave about "heirloom" tomatoes (and some are delicious, currently trying to grow my own) but they are just as mutant as the bland supermarket ones.

Despite the valid criticisms against the specifics of your comment, I found this perspective interesting.

You could model the specifics differently, of course: maybe we assume the $500/month is a peak and it tapers off exponentially somehow. What sort of capital returns does this correspond to?

I haven't done the maths, so I don't know, but the fact that I can even ask the question means I've learned something from your comment that I didn't know before!
Oxygen not Included is sorta kinda like this. It's a 2D, from the side colony management game where you have to survive on an asteroid. You have to manage oxygen production, get rid of carbon dioxide and other unbreathable gasses, find water, grow food, keep your base from getting too hot (or too cold) because thermodynamics is a thing in this game.

Mining is just "go mine here" but your colonists can only hold a certain amount of materials so retrieving mined materials can take a while, especially if you're mining far away from your base. Plus you have to worry about the materials being hot, or being affected by germs. You can technically mine out the entire asteroid, but I've never gotten close to that because something always goes wrong and everyone dies. There's only a limited amount of resources after all.
Two knobs is an older style, but lots of single knob style rotate side to side to set temperature and move up and down to set pressure
I don't think this is an accurate assessment. Yes, GTD wants you to get everything out of your head and onto the "paper" in front of you. And yes, this might take a long time for some people, up to hours or days. But the key thing is it's all written down. Once it is, then you go through the collected inputs and actually figure out what to do with them. But you can't do that while your brain is still going "did I write this other thing down?" You need a clear mind before you start processing.
For most people it's just means-to-end principle.

Yep, that's what i did. Every 15 min I would measure the sentiment of given topics, normalize the messy data and plot them. you can overlay this against a time series of price data.

Probably because you have an expensive enough car, that actually does a good job at regulating the cabine temperature.

Terra community passes proposal to revive LUNA cryptocurrency
PKM: Personal knowledge management
The app made $300 last month and $500 this month. It indeed hasn't been very long, and I agree that $500/mo is a bit of a generous take. However I do plan on adding extra paid features which I think will push that even further.
I guess this is the professional response ;) I would just blacklist the IP addressess, just to see what would happen.
Fair enough. Pen and paper are the ultimate tool for thought, so something that tries to translate them fairly directly into a digital environment also is.

Guess my point here is that Muse is not an attempt to translate paper into the computer, other than some superficial elements like using a stylus to ink. IMO software and computers can go so much further than that.
Yep, all money is money and can make a difference to anyone.

I live in the bay area, and though my rent is a lot more than $500/mo, if I put $500/mo more toward rent I really could have a much nicer apartment, for example. Or it could be the monthly payment for an EV.

$500/mo can be a nice quality of life boost even in the most expensive parts of the world even if it's not enough to live on just that.

Back when I was doing my PhD, on a $2300/mo research assistantship salary in Boston, I also built a webapp that got me ~$200-300/mo for several years and close to $900/mo for one of those years. That alone allowed me to do lots of things I wanted to do at the time (e.g. ~2 overseas vacations a year and several self-supported long distance bike trips). Savings wasn't a huge concern at the time because I knew I could get a decent-paying job post-graduation.
Good question! I'm very much in alignment that most non-system animations get in the way / are just annoying.

I think it depends on what the goal of the screen is. If the goal is to simple provide information to the user, it makes sense to have clean, simple, and snappy animations.

However, I think there are also situations where the experience itself is the goal. i.e. give the user a visually pleasing graphic, animation, interaction, etc. In this case going a little wild with animations can be a good thing.

Most in app situations should be the first (snappy, clean, useful). But selectively sprinkling a few instances of the second throughout your app can bring the experience to the next level.

In our case, we wanted the rewards flow (it's a banking/brokerage app) to be a fun, gamified experience to separate us from typical banks. So we opted to add a very visual, interactive experience in this single part of the app. There's a demo video above. While it's certainly extra, I think it makes the core flow of the app a unique experience.
In this specific case I think it was just incompetence, but at the same time, one of the selling points of the device was “lasting longer” because it was able to receive updates.
I love you.

I don't care if I get HN downvoted for this, but I love the fact that you're out there in the world and appreciating the subtle beauty of transpirt.

Another genuine question: is there a good reason to use a closed source UI framework in 2022? Given the number of high quality, cross platform UI frameworks available today this should be a consideration.

Inevitably, while developing a UI, I find it necessary to investigate some part of the framework implementation. This is impossible with a closed source framework. Indeed, many of the complaints that appear on this site seem like exactly the sort of mysterious behavior one faces and might be resolved with access to the source.

SwiftUI is closed source, correct? I made an effort to discover the source and it doesn't appear to be available.

That looks promising, but I don't want to handle any of this myself :/

I want a service where I can start a new VM fast by posting to an API, have it run some long running JS server code, and the VM should close itself when it's done.

My use case is often CPU bound, so a small VM with a single CPU is just fine.
What are you referring to? Was it before or after https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paris_massacre_of_1961
No-code and low-code platforms are incredible. I don't think you'll receive a fair answer to the question here. These platforms are most valuable for non-technical people, particularly founders who are looking to build an MVP. These platforms are even more useful if you don't have a network of technical friends/colleagues. There are relatively few people that fit that description here on HN.

Nobody thinks that you can scale the next Amazon.com on no-code platforms. However, if you're just starting out and you want to demonstrate the value of an idea without hiring a developer or learning to code, these platforms are a godsend. They've enabled an entirely new segment of the population to develop tech, where previously they would not have been able to.
It's a clever solution. For converting unsigned chars to strings, though, a lookup table is going to be the fastest solution, since there are only 256 possibilities.
A squad-based instanced dungeoneering game, halfway between World of Warcraft dungeonering and Heroes of the Storm, but with community-contributed dungeons and dungeon progressions.

Specifically, I'd like people to be able to use something like the StarCraft map editor to design and build whole complexes and progressions of dungeons through which they and others can play (and potentially compete).

Ideally, the classes themselves could be customized/buildable.
Well said. I'm not arguing its utility--I've used it and I think it's a great app. But I do think of it as "fractal sketching" rather than spatial research.

Ownership can’t be defined outside of the law. Ultimately these are boring old contracts in a digital form and they may or may not be valid. The validity can’t be determined within the NFT, smart contract, or blockchain. Some code may initiate a transfer of something and that gives you possession of it, but ownership isn’t guaranteed.

For example, you can write a smart contract that would watch for divorce papers being filed by your spouse and upon filing, you would transfer your Bitcoin balance or NFT to some other wallet. A court isn’t going to fall for that. You will be found to have hidden community assets (ie assets you don’t entirely own).

I am curious on what type of smaller subreddits you've seen toxicity. I find that smaller, hobby-related communities are really great and I rarely to never see toxicity. Looking at anything that has potential to be even remotely be related to politics immediately turns hostile. For example r/f1 usually is quite friendly, but when the topic shifts to how races should take place in different countries, it gets a lot more hostile (e.g. "don't race in Jeddah because human right!" - "Well, let's skip USA as well, because human right then"...)
