I've had people try to guess my login with Company ABC once they learned of my CompanyXYZ@mydomain.com address. Avoiding the reuse of email addresses helps here, the same way avoiding the reuse of passwords does.

For blackhats, with catchalls you can create multiple accounts on sites that try to prevent it by assuming everyone only has 1 email address.

For me the biggest drawback is migrating ALL those emails if your provider decides to end support for catchalls (like Dreamhost).

Radar Labs | Software Engineer (infra, platform, data, full-stack, mobile) | Remote US / New York City | Full Time

https://radar.com Radar Labs is a location infrastructure SaaS platform.

We've recently raised our Series C and are a small, but mighty engineering team (9 engineers!). We're based across the US, with an HQ in NYC in Union Square.

There's a ton of opportunity to make an impact and work on a variety of things, as we're a pretty fluid team:

- Infrastructure (e.g. Evaluate our production workloads on ARM64 and build out our AWS stack with Terraform CDK)

- Platform (e.g. Build out abstractions for our product engineers to ingest and compute geo queries at high-scale)

- Data (e.g. Process, deduplicate, and evaluate 10s of millions of POIs from a variety of vendors and open data)

- Mobile (e.g. building a control system that automatically configures optimizing battery-life and location accuracy for different use-cases over time)

- Product (e.g. build tools to visualize and debug location data at scale)

We power location experiences for over 100M devices, serving over 10k QPS of geo queries. The numbers are growing day-by-day!

Probably by

- locate the text node containing the selected text

- split the text node into 3 segment (the selected one in the middle)

- replace the selected segment with a span that has font style on it

?

I did something like this before to replace part of the text with a ruby tag.

https://codepen.io/mmis1000/pen/gOgKqba?editors=0010

Or probably you can do it the reverse the obfuscate the selected text and make it actually works like a black pen.

Although it will be definitely more complex because selection may cross multi text nodes. But the idea should apply.
I did this for about 20 years, and have basically stopped because I wasn't really seeing an advantage to make it worth the bother.
bitwarden has a feature that fixes this issue.

More generally. Just coming up with a random word and assigning it rather than a specific name, and looking that word up in your password manager, should suffice.
I don't buy it. The number of people on HN that say, "it takes non-zero effort, and it was hell to exert that little bit of effort, so you shouldn't do it."

That might be a worthwhile message for a hardware hacker site where putting effort in to email configurations might be different enough from the meat of what most people are doing, but for this site? No. Don't try to sell "hacking is slightly hard, so don't do it" to hackers, please and thanks.

I've been doing individual email addresses for ages, and I've forced more than one company to disclose breaches because I was able to show with certainty that an address couldn't have been lost any other possible way.
Small aside but their is something particularly humorous to me in this relatively recent phenomena where people who worry about "wokeness" start pointing to fairly vanilla and historical Western philosophers as the authors of contemporary social ills. Foucault and Derrida? I can understand the way that thought process went, but now increasingly its figures like Kant and Rawls. How far will it go? In a few months people will say Kierkegaard was a SJW and Husserl was responsible for decadent Liberal introspection and pronouns in the bio.

Idk, nobody is going to be talking about these people in a year, but it is very interesting to see this now.
Ask HN: How to Deal with ADHD?
I've been diagnosed with ADHD, but I don't like Adderall much because when I come down I get very irritable.

I've been able to manage it and be productive of work, but I get distracted so often that I end up having to "work" 10 hours a day to get a few hours of actual work done.

I've recently started taking Modafinil, and it works much better and with way fewer sides than Adderall, but I don't want to take it more than once a week because I'm afraid of tolerance. From [0]:

> Anecdotally, the real troll under the bridge for modafinil seems to be that one can develop tolerance, where it no longer has the stimulant or anti-sleep effects that made it so awesome (it has been speculated to be related to liver metabolism). For example, poker player Paul Phillips took 2-300mg daily for a long period and said the effects “have attenuated over time. The body is an amazing adjusting machine, and there’s no upside that I’ve been able to see to just taking more.” (Such comments are common online among those who have used modafinil heavily, to the point where I have successfully predicted tolerance for such users, and I carefully avoid using modafinil more than weekly, if that.) The lack of academic support for these observations of tolerance is a little strange—users hardly have any incentive to make up downsides about their favorite drug.

But Modafinil makes me so much more productive that it's easily the best day of my week when I take it. I get all my work done in a normal amount of time and then I have plenty of time at the end of the day to relax and hang out with my friends and family. I'm really desperate for a way to have that level of productivity without medication. Does anyone have any advice?

I wouldn't mind working from the office if I had an actual office. But instead I get an open space cubicle with random people walking and talking behind my back every 5 minutes. I get a $50 uncomfortable chair that looks like it's 15 years old. I get an unstocked kitchen, so I have to spend $15-20 on a meal. I get random people stealing food and stuff of my desk.

This was at a big 3-letter corporation and at a startup before that. I switched to remote 10 years ago and don't ever want to work from "the office" ever again.
I think my heart skipped a beat when I read the headline as I had just made an investment in $HCP. I was relieved after reading it's just another nail on Terra and not at all related to Hashicorp.

You can buy low-cost programmable IP cameras from the manufacturer. It's very easy to set up something similar to a Wyze cam with no recurring service fee. Just don't expose these devices directly to the internet because you probably won't get security updates.

A few years ago, I bought a few cameras from Vivotek to keep an eye on my dog. I had to set up a VPN for video streaming, but it works.

Why not just use regex/wildcard addresses which makes it less "akward".

Like "mail-recruiter@foo.bar", "mail-hilton.com@foo.bar", etc.

It's easy to configure, makes it more clear that you are in fact not trying to impersonate others and you circumvent the problem of receiving automated mailes to "sales@foo.bar", "hr@foo.bar", etc.

BTW: I've been using my solution for more than five years and only had one "awkward" moment when a recruiter was a bit sore I gave them my mail address specific for cold call recruiters.
> But why should I want to design my society for the benefit of the dishonest, the slothful, and the wicked?

It's not designed to benefit them, it's designed to benefit the least fortunate.

Put it this way: what's the "harm" of dishonesty? If a dishonest person ends up being the worst off in society, then dishonesty has no advantage. Can you even say in that case that dishonesty causes harm? Whereas if someone uses dishonesty to gain personal advantage, then that person is not the worst off in society, and so the society is not designed to benefit them. You might even say that the society is designed to benefit the victims of dishonesty, not the perpetrators.
I'm starting a job tomorrow, and I requested to be all in-person, at least to start with. I will need to establish connections and observe work styles to discover what the true needs of the team are.

Thus: it depends.
Yes, Rawls' position is explicitly anti-'desert' and entitlement. I find his critique relatively compelling.

Nothing about his position is saying that you must design a society specifically for the benefit of "the dishonest, the slothful, and the wicked," if such a design would be worse off under the difference principle. Indeed, many societies would benefit from punishing or disincentivizing such behavior.

What Rawls critiques is the (Christian) notion that the slothful are apriori deserving of punishment or the hard-working apriori deserving of reward, if such a reward structure is not one that would benefit a society of free individuals.
Thanks Ted. In the Netherlands it’s a combination of a few market trends. 1. A trick insurers pulled in the 90s and consumers never forgave us for (lending money in the late 90s for leveraged stock investments with massive cost loading; still ongoing litigation). 2. Mortgage rules changing making a certain type of life insurance ineligible for interest deduction (you used to be able to pay 5% interest, get that interest as income tax deductible thus returning 50+% of that interest and still get 5% interest in your deposit!) and 3. the very low interest rates making products generally less interesting.

Most insurers here have closed their books, with only a few products open for sales. A few larger insurers and hedge funds are buying portfolios in order to hopefully gain benefits of scale. There’s basically two ways of making money: better investment returns usually via more risky investments and cost savings. Since many of these products stem from 70s-90s IT modernization and cost saving is a real activity.

I do wish we spent more on bike paths and infrastructure. It's much cheaper than any of the other transit initiatives. However, it becomes very difficult to use them if you have to drop off kids in the morning. So it is never going to be an option for a lot of people.

In general, working from home makes cities and public transit a lot less relevant. There isn't a strong reason for everyone to get on a train to the big city, if they can just sit at home and work. When you add crime, COVID-19, pollution, etc. into the mix the case for just staying home seems even better.

The numbers are trending in the right direction. From 2021Q1 to 2022Q1, revenue grew 43% (vs 34% at AWS and 46% at Azure), loss went down by 4%, and the loss to revenue ratio went from 24% to 16%.

> However, “too invested to switch now” reminds me of .NET/C# developers that don’t embrace change and/or don’t swim in other waters.

Or I have other things to do and I don't want to have to relearn and rebuild everything for no obvious benefit. I have no fascination for the tool, I am keen on what I can do with the tool. Having to rewrite something I already did because someone decided to change the internal architecture of a core part of the framework is a waste of my time. The .net team used to understand that.

> This complaint sometimes stems from an unwillingness to learn web/mobile frontend technologies. On the server-side, ASP.NET continues to simplify— you can write an API now in one file with a handful of lines of code.

that may be but compare the amount of time it takes to drag and drop a button on a winform, double click on it and write your code vs doing the same thing web based. I also do websites, but the time invested to do a simple UI is an order of magnitude what it takes with a desktop app, so I need to have a really good reason to go web based for a home or internal project (and now I need to deal with a server with certificates, etc). And there are many applications where it is simply not possible. Interacting with files, or visualising non h264/aac videos, selenium, etc.

> This sounds like a feature to me

I am not saying it is not intended, I am saying it is more complicated.

> It is not inherently multithreaded either

Yes it is. You need to constantly think whether you are going to come back on the same thread or not. Something that works fine on a console application or within an exceldna formula will deadlock on a asp.net or wpf application. And it breaks the call stack when you get an exception, making it harder to debug. I think I understand this feature reasonably well, thank you.

And not just multithreaded, asynchronous also. That means if a user clicks a button and that button has async code, the user can do more interactions with the UI while the original method is running. Now you need to handle many more UI states than you had without async.
Applying a full manifest is "this is your state now".

Applying a patch is "make these changes to your existing state".

That dependency on existing state is a difference, and it seems to map reasonably well to what declarative/imperative seem to usually be used to mean in this context.
I haven't heard of any layoffs in Boston, but some headcount freezes for the time being. I get the sense that most folks are taking a wait and see approach. Layoffs seems a bit aggressive right now, closer to Q4 who knows...
They are objectively livable in a literal sense. But, yes I agree that some policy makers decided that they would rather have people homeless than in unpleasant living accommodations.
That’s exactly how I’ve been doing it for more than a decade. (Without the subdomain part but with the disguising.) I feel it’s been worth it so far.
ArcadeDB – Multi-Model Database Supporting Graphs, KV, Documents and Time-Series
I was expecting the use of sentence-transformers (sbert.net). If you have a long list of entities you could use an approximate similarity search library such as annoy. The authors store the embeddings in a database and decode json for each comparison. Very inefficient in my opinion. At least load the whole table of embeddings in a np.array from the start, np.dot is plenty fast if your list not huge.

The problem is still not solved. Having a list of the most similar entities does not tell you which are similar and which are just related. You need a classifier. For that you can label a few hundred pairs of positive and negative examples and use the same sbert.net to finetune a transformer. The authors use the easier route of thresholding cosine similarity score at 0.8, but this threshold might not work for your case.
Alas, many people think performance engineering is only about the wall clock time of their program and not what impact it has on anything else.

malloc performance highly depends on how large the allocations are though.

I have a story very similar to yours. I worked in the office for a total of one week in March 2020 before we voluntarily switched to remote. (In Florida, so no real lockdowns.) We were expecting it to be a few weeks, maybe a couple months...

Now we're in the process of releasing our leased office, and renting a much smaller space for occasional collaboration. My team, which is only 7 people to start with, live in 4 different metros.

There is no back for us as a company. This is how we work now.

For the OP: I would take a look at how companies are hiring. If their job reqs are all for specific locations and no remote listings, then I would expect that you would be correct for that company. If their listings are remote, then I would expect that they're probably beyond that point.
not really. how many nft marketplaces are as big as opensea? this was a big target.
> One thing I hate about CLI tool though, is that it's very hard to edit long commands in terminal.

Apart from the "wrap it in a shell script" advice, I would also note that in a bash-like terminal, home and end will jump to the start or the end of the current command buffer, and ctrl-del (or alt-del maybe?) or ctrl-arrow keys usually delete or move the cursor a whole word at a time, which makes it somewhat quicker to work rather than sitting there holding an arrow key or backspce.

Many here probably already know this, some may not!
Alternatively you could do a whois query of the domain (and verify against cached details) before sending out the recovery email. It's probably best to do that every time the email addresses are changed or updated.

What does it mean to be close to 100%? Is it that people “put the plastic into the recycling bin”? Because I fear that is what it means.
That is exactly the business model for some private equity firms (corporate raiders). They identify undervalued companies with strong revenue and significant assets where incompetent management is wasting resources and buy the company. Then they stop investing in growth, cut expenses to the bone, borrow against the assets, issue huge dividends to shareholders, and allow the company to gradually die. There's nothing really wrong with this approach and it probably helps increase overall economic growth through better capital allocation. But it can be a rough ride for employees caught in the process.
These things aren’t “once in a lifetime,” and in any case, a single human life will coincide with thousands of “once in a lifetime” events. Economic downturns, war, and disease are perennial human conditions. COVID was deadly, but if you factor out people who were already on death’s doorstep, waiting to succumb to the next flu, it wasn’t really that bad. 9/11 was tragic and launched some unfortunate wars, but in terms of total American fatalities, 9/11 and the War on Terror are not that significant or out of the ordinary.

The Jan 6 riot and BLM riots were not very deadly. In the old days, riotous mobs would literally go around murdering people. A few hours of rioting would mean hundreds dead. The 2020 riots were nothing like that. In the 60s, radical leftist groups were regularly bombing American cities. Get some perspective.

The Ukraine war is notable, but only because Europe has been relatively peaceful as a whole. But don’t forget the Yugoslav wars, the Soviet occupation of Eastern Europe, and that war in Europe has historically been a very common thing. What’s unusual is the relative peace that Europe is still enjoying due to post-WW2 American hegemony.

Mass shootings, as in a gunman mowing down multiple random people, are rounding errors in terms of total murders. (Beware of stats, which include gang executions and such in the mass shooting number). Murder rates in some of the big cities are nearing historic highs, but unless you’re involved in gang life or live in the hood, you’re very unlikely to be affected. The overall murder rate is still lower than the 70s and 80s.

I think there’s plenty to worry about still. One way our time is exceptional is how eagerly we are discarding traditional morality and social hierarchy. And pop culture promotes awful decisions around sex and drugs and family. Racial and sexual resentment are reaching fever pitch. Crime is trending up. American hegemony is waning.

But please, remember that the news on tv or twitter can’t literally jump out of the screen and kill you. People have survived and even thrived in much harder times than now. You are among the most fortunate people in history, with access to education and information that people couldn’t even dream about a century ago. Skilled workers are still in high demand. Engineers and doctors and lawyers are paid more than ever. Even the poor have access to better food and creature comforts than a king in times of old. The state will watch your kids five days a week for seven to nine hours a day, for free. If you’re frugal, you can eat enough to get fat for less than $5 a day.
