From my personal experience, there's many backend developer types who resist tools or libraries that eliminate or minimize their bespoke API development. (Even when they complain about constantly making new endpoints for some frontend)
Author mentioned that they only use unity for the rendering and audio, cross-platform games will use unity for a lot more, and generally get cross-platform for a significantly reduced "cost".

This project is in C# so that's the first hurdle, I'd guess.
Yeah. I had to get pushed out of the nest. I wouldn’t have done it on my own.

I imagine it's akin to management expecting you to spend your off hours learning all this "great new tech" while they think working off hours is reading online articles on hacker news to "stay up to date".
While I don't disagree with the gist of your idea (it can be cheaper in-house), I believe you're underestimating the ongoing support cost. At 10k users, it will become a part time support position to manage the solution, handle credential resets, write and update documentation, handle all client side problems, maintain ongoing ad / account integration and browser plugins, deal with any security certification required for services in your corp, comply with backup/data retention rules, etc.

You're saying $500/mth, but my response would be: this is half a full time IT support position and it needs a secondary + on-call cover.
Them not mentioning it, despite mentioning it making their optics better, pretty much seem to point to the NDA not even letting them discuss the stuff you stated.

The irony and the hypocrisy of the situation is that I have no gay strippers trying to convert me into a gay stripper. But there are plenty of libertarians that are trying to take over government and force everyone into their idea of a free society.

Fine you want to live under a libertarian rule? More power to you. Just don't force the rest of us to be part of it. There's plenty of places where libertarians can create their dream world. The world is a big place.
You can't force this top down. It has to come bottom up.

Fighter jets use missiles, not flak. Above certain velocities and a certain degree of freedom in the third dimension, shotguns disperse uselessly more than hit anything. At the point you're getting close enough to make a hit probable you're already most of the way towards a direct strike anyway.
These losses were not due to GME.
But given the massive amounts of energy hurricanes release, it would seem that a similarly massive amount of energy would be needed to move enough water to have an effect.
Non-Chromium browsers are protected from fingerprinting by stuff like WebUSB by the nature that none of them support WebUSB. Many of these supposed "Web" things are actually just Chrome-proprietary features.
I think the bigger issue is the update frequency. My weather app updates minute-by-minute, giving me essentially real-time precipitation information from my neighbourhood weather station. If each future time is a column, you're looking at 60 columns just for the next hour of forecast. It really adds up!

This level of detailed information can't be pre-cached, either. I believe they are feeding the real-time weather recordings from the weather station into their supercomputer model to generate minute-by-minute high resolution forecasts over the next 6 hours.

Nice! I was not aware that Unreal has C# support.

Making Unreal rendering layer would obviously be a huge task. Our current solution is overfit to Unity since the separation was done for ease of development and testing, not for support of different renderers. However, the communication between core sim and rendering is mostly based on (custom) events.

Sim runs in a separate thread. Once it is done, renderer can read data (sync) and launch the sim for another iteration. We do this at 10 Hz. In the meantime, the renderer should interpolate all moving objects from state (t-1) to (t) so that movements are smooth (say for target of 60 FPS).

For example, a `TreeRenderer` can listen to `TreeManager.TreeAdded(TreeId id)` and `TreeManager.TreeRemoved(TreeId id)`, and handle rendering of the trees however it pleases. Trees don't move so this one is easy. `VehiclesRenderer` has to also update a vehicle state on every sync.

One can also inspect sim state without usage of events. For example, our debug renderer just draws a picture of a game state by simply looping over all entities.

Reality is of course much more complex. If you happen to own the game, our DLLs are non-obfuscated and quite easy to read with tools like ILSpy :)
The proper way is to educate people on losing weight. Obesity is probably the #1 cause for covid fatalities. In the past 2 years, everyone who is obese could have lost weight and come within or very close to the normal range.
Very interesting. Like the sibling comment, I'm also curious about your API for this.

I've been using Unity in a similar way but with Luau (a gradually typed Lua by Roblox) for the API. It's been very educational to treat Unity as a box like this, and I've been making the Luau API very high-level, often following Roblox patterns (more coarsely grained).

As a side-effect of this separation, it's also refreshing to have the option to make everything work with other engines.
So... slaves?
You are ignoring that plenty of people, especially young people, already tolerate headsets enough to spend many hours wearing them.

Making the headsets much much lighter, less hot, wireless, better optics, higher res, higher refresh rates, etc., will improve the experience massively.

Look into what is already public: companies are exploring eye tracking, varifocal lenses (so your eyes are not always looking at the same focal plane), etc.

You can even compare the Index versus the Quest 2 to see what a difference a better screen can make.

People already deal with eye strain by staring at a bright screen from a fixed distance for most of their life.

Neural link, sure, eventually. For now, if you don’t think ten years of progress won’t lead to hundreds of millions of devices sold, well, wait and see.
Has this seen much progress? It had a few niggles last I saw, with TCP/IP for instance.
In the industry I'm in (just fintech SAAS), the only "change" I've been noticing is that all of our Mac user devs have even worse local development performance than before: inability to run some Docker containers, and very slow local server runtime.

I may be straying away from M1-related issues now, but I've also been seeing widespread Linux-style "why can't I share my screen?"-type problems. Not to mention fear of installing new updates and things breaking. It's like Mac is now the worst of both worlds of old Windows and Linux.

To be fair, I'm not actually a Mac user - this is just stuff I've been observing from the outside.

The xenophobia is the point of the reply I assume. Financial life isn’t that great for most of the world. People will go places for a better life. Language isn’t going to stop that. Xenophobia will.
My take has been that I pay more than that for almost every other subscription (Netflix, Spotify, etc.) and yet Kagi is the only one that I'm almost guaranteed to use every single day and it's got the biggest influence on my productivity. The others I'm more likely to just passively consume. With Netflix increasingly being more hit and miss as to whether it's even an enjoyable experience.
Love Dask. Very robust and therefore very easy to get wrong. When you need a longer term solution that uses Dask, it pays to architect things well, in advance vs on the fly in a sandbox.

No, he was relatively blameless and if anything aided the recovery because JP Morgan was so rock solid he was able to buy a ton of toxic assets. Jamie Dimon made shittons of money in 2008 by buying tons of stuff on the cheap when everybody else was illiquid.

Not that JP Morgan hasn’t landed itself in a bunch of scandals between then and now but no Jamie Dimon is not culpable for 2008 at all.

ToolJet: Open-source low-code platform to build internal tools
Riffing off those, here's a ffmpeg/mpv command to run an audio frequency spectrum visualizer on a live microphone (or a virtual loopback one):

ffmpeg -f avfoundation -i ":0" -flush_packets 1 -flags low_delay -muxdelay 0.01 -fflags nobuffer -f wav -c copy - | mpv - --profile=low-latency -untimed --lavfi-complex="[aid1]showcqt=fps=30:s=1280x720:count=5:axis=1:axis_h=6:bar_h=100:timeclamp=0.13[vo]"

Specifically it's using ffmpeg's showcqt[0] filter, which I find to be by far ffmpeg's most beautiful/comprehensible frequency visualizer. In my example `-i ":0"` refers to my microphone at index "0". To find your system's microphone index you can run `ffmpeg -f avfoundation -list_devices true -i ""`.

N8n: Automate Without Limits
Yep that’s the way to do it. One improvement IMHO would be to have an event log as the truth and everything else (in-memory/databases/…) derived from that event log. It is an architecture that scales from tiny to Google scale. You don’t even need something like Kafka. You can literally start with a single disk file as the event long and read it into memory at server startup. And then “scale up” by keeping the event log in a single table in a DB (SQLite/Postgres’s etc.)

Commit to at least a year. It can be a really shitty job. They might underpay and overwork you. Roll with it and do your best for that first year.

My first job was quite dead end but I'm still reaping the results of that hard work 10 years later. It snowballs, not just skills but the people you come across who end up working in different places later. Everyone knows a guy and when you have 3-4 seemingly unrelated people talk well about you, you can get anywhere you like.
It takes a massive amount of ignorance to run one's mouth in this manner. Do you seriously not have first or second hand experience with what it's like to be in the cross-hairs of local government? It's f-ing terrible. And it's not Karen and her ilk that they go after. It's the guy who's running a side business out of his garage (aka the "mixed use" HN fawns over). It's the guy who's neighbors don't like the look of his project sailboat. It's the elderly couple that can't afford the 20k price tag to get off of septic and onto the sewer. Getting government out of the business of mediating these sorts of petty matters doesn't necessarily result in more freedom as they already had it but it results in a hell of a lot less stress for the people who were getting abused for exercising it.

While dismantling the state at higher levels can cause some bad stuff (19th century robber barons selling people heorin over the counter, industry dumping hazmat, stuff like that) I find it very, very hard to argue against "more than the bare minimum to keep things running" at the local level.

Edit: And I'm not a libertarian. I think there's a laundry list of things government should be involved in providing and facilitating that no true libertarian would agree with. I however, don't think the government should be meddling in the bulk of the "enforcing standards of personal behavior and commerce" stuff that a lot of people here want.
At least they won't fill the jails with users...
Skytrain is awesome. Tracks are isolated for some definition of "isolated"; skytrain doesn't have to interoperate with any other rail traffic (unless you count maintenance vehicles) but there isn't any wall separating the track from the station platform like e.g. the Las Vegas airport has (it has been discussed as a safety measure, but skytrains don't presently park accurately enough to line up the doors) and there are many places where you can hop a fence and get onto the tracks (resulting in trains being stopped and police showing up to escort you away).

I think the strong disagreement in these threads are indicative of the new sub-culturing of social networks. I have friends who basically live in facebook, they are parents who spend most of their time looking for deals on marketplace. Meanwhile, most of my child-free friends have ditched facebook nearly a decade ago, and have either doubled down on reddit or have moved to tik tok.

Whether or not the metaverse is anything but marking would require me to look at a balance sheet, but facebook seems to be moving through the business life-cycle at a much more rapid pace than i expected it to. They are wringing the value out of the product for revenue growth at the expense of long term adoption. Always a mixed bag but I'm sure an MBA could explain it better.

Suffices to say. I have no idea whether or not their products have are long-run competitive, because I'm very much not the target demo.
gather.town is a pretty great forum for this
There's a fundamental mismatch between the HTTP request-response model and the SQL "open transaction" model - you can't open a transaction, serve a form, and wait for a user to submit it and commit that in the same transaction, because what if the user walks away? But if a transaction doesn't extend to the actual user action then it's basically useless; you can't do transactional read-modify-write when the one doing the modifying is the user.

After all, what do you do when a transaction fails? Most webapps either retry or fail (if they even bother to handle that case at all), but you don't need transactions to do either of those. In an actual database application you can tell the user their transaction didn't commit and ask them to deal with it, but again you can't really do that over the HTTP request/response cycle (because what if the user submits the form and walks away? They expect their input to be saved, whatever happens on your backend).
The data is probably just phone self-reported GPS coordinates, and we know how accurate or inaccurate those can be: https://www.gps.gov/systems/gps/performance/accuracy/#how-ac...

Both are articles are perfectly consistent with being able to locate a person to within at best a 16 feet radius or so, and less accurate when in a built-up area. Hence the quote about not being able to reliably tell which side of the road someone's phone pinged on.
It's cheaper than buying the game. No buyer's remorse. Saves time compared with playing the game yourself. More informative than a game trailer. Watch celebrities (both A list and B list) play your favorite games. Learn tips and terminology from other gamers. Feel vicarious success from someone breaking a world speedrun record. You can do other activities while they play the game for you. No hassle with installation or compatibility or awkward controls. No need to invest in dedicated gaming hardware. You can skip ahead to the good parts.

APM Help | REMOTE in the America's timezones | https://www.apmhelp.com

APM Help is reimagining property management systems enabling property owners and management companies to be secure in knowing they are always 100% compliant and up-to-date with their books and finances. We are the tech-enabled "back office in a box" that eliminates the tedium and grunt work of accounting and maintenance coordination tasks.

The whole company was remote-first from the beginning several years before the pandemic. As a result we have a well honed async work culture that prioritizes transparency and communication over layers of bureaucracy. We believe in engineers doing engineering things and collaborating directly. We don't do Scrum — we pace ourselves along the lines of 37Signal's 6-week cycles.

Looking for junior to senior engineers with a focus on the backend. We wrangle a lot of data and business workflows across many boundaries and keeping everything organized is our main engineering challenge! Not sexy but still a significant challenge that takes systems thinking and creativity to keep from coding ourselves into unmanageable messes.

Tech stack is Typescript, Postgres and EdgeDB, SvelteKit, serverless, etc – all in a couple of monorepos.

My name is David and I am the engineering team lead. Feel free to reach out to me directly at dave at apmhelp dot com!
Been using Kagi for a few months now and, unlike when I used DDG, it's rare that I feel the need to fall back to Google.

> Fighter jets use missiles, not flak.

Do you think the missiles go and touch the opposing fighter jet? Hit-to-kill systems exist, but most missiles maneuver, get as much of an intersecting path as they can, and then explode to kill the target with fragments.

> At the point you're getting close enough to make a hit probable you're already most of the way towards a direct strike anyway.

Here, you don't select for the highest probability of kill on a certain pass, but instead the highest probability of damage integrated over many orbits. You also don't select for the highest probability of killing a given SV, but of killing satellites in a given constellation with closely related orbits.

* The Lucid charges very fast for an EV. Tom over at State of Charge did a 0-100% test that goes into great detail.

* In my own experience I’ve found 150kw chargers routinely deliver 160-175 for a bit at low charge states before they begin ramping down at >50% SoC.

* The Lucid software has come a long way since launch but still has some work to be done. It’s vastly more responsive than before but the nav UX needs work among other things.

* Tesla is the clear leader on the software, but the sheer excellence of the Lucid’s performance and luxury overcomes a lot of of the drawbacks; with the Air just don’t want to stop driving.

They use a lot of 3rd party APIs rather than try to beat everyone at quality and the only monetization is via direct payment so those 3rd party API costs get baked in. For an idea how many things a search might call
https://kagi.com/faq#:~:text=Where%20are%20your%20results%20...

> Our searching includes anonymized requests to traditional search indexes like Google and Bing as well as vertical sources like Wikipedia and DeepL or other APIs. We also have our own non-commercial index (Teclis), news index (TinyGem), and an AI for instant answers.
...
And of course, we answer quick queries like “How far is the sun from the earth?” or “10kg in lbs” with our instant-answer systems that use dozens of sources and APIs, all connected to you quickly yet transparently.

Cost of their infrastructure to tie it together and development/maintenance may go down with scale but it's not really expected to get significantly cheaper to provide the search results without either lowering quality or using alternative monetization, both of which Kagi is against. I'm not associated with Kagi I just happened to ask very similar questions a few days ago in their Discord.
