ah yes, because when a federal agency doesn't punish a multi billion dollar corporation, we all know it's because they definitely didn't do anything wrong. They're so trustworthy!
If you are interested and like this stuff - ask some questions and I'll post places you can learn what you want.
Have you ever ridden a properly built bike with a campagnolo group set? I've gone 15+ years on both my carbon tri bike and custom Ti road bike (both with Campagnolo Record) without ever tuning it (past the first 50-70 miles, thanks cable stretch).
I'm not going to pretend that layoffs are harder on upper management than employees or anything. Getting laid off sucks ass and there's no sugarcoating it.

But thinking that being a C-level automatically means you're a Patrick Bateman style sociopath treating people like furniture is an immature take, especially for a forum like this, where so many people are entrepreneurs and upper management themselves. They're still people.
"I've been hearing this a lot lately, surprisingly from people who consider themselves to be politically left. I say surprisingly because historically, leftist ideology has been quick to solve problems with corporate behavior with regulations, whereas traditionally it's been the right pushing laissez-faire."

On this web site when I hear people talking about controlling what social media platforms do via regulation, most of the time it seems to me like passing a law where the government says the following journalists must have articles each week on the New York Times front page. (And none of them are actually going to be journalists so much as "journalists")

Other people see it more like passing a law saying the telephone company can't block your telephone access.

I guess my point is framing every discussion of social media as "regulation good or bad" isn't very useful.
FWIW, I agree. You're almost certainly right that this is just a false positive or a bug.

I'm just pointing out that the "evil corps" stereotyped has been earned by past events. The folks who are suspicious of corporate behaviour and motives have their reasons.
Any idea why Tesla is laying people off? I figure it has to be systemic supply chain / logistics failures, or maybe lack of confidence in their product moving forward.

The article says "super bad feeling about the economy", and that their Shanghai factory hasn't been able to reopen. The former sounds like BS.

Then it talks about inflation concerns, but that's not a good reason to get rid of employees that will be locked into pre-inflation salaries for the next N years.

Other than "we're not fixing the factory any time soon", the only thing I can think of is that they're looking at early market share info, and expect to be steam rolled by the existing auto manufacturers in the next few years (to the point where they can make more cars than they can sell, which is currently unthinkable!)

[Edit: A sibling comment says this won't touch the manufacturing parts of the company. So, they're laying off sales, management and engineering, I guess? That's a better fit with Elon's ego. I guess the plan is to just coast for a few years during the downturn? If so, that's a textbook mistake big companies make during recessions -- when the economy recovers, they're surprised that they're not competitive anymore!]
This is textbook anti-competitive behaviour. I hope the EU regulators jump on this and give a hefty fine to Twitter.
The Techspot article on this goes into a bit more detail on the other leaks (https://www.techspot.com/news/94803-gaijin-war-thunder-forum...) but generally yes, it's people with clearance who are players of the game and want to get something in game corrected to be more like reality.
So what if we just change email to work like this: Mail server will not let incoming messages through unless you've first A) sent a message to that domain AND B) received a reply that doesn't look like an error or bounce.

Yes, you'll have to send an email somewhere with little to no content to initiate reception of things like invoices, password resets, and monitoring emails. Is that such a bad thing?

Yes, spammers will desperately try to get you to send an email, any email, to their domain, or cybersquat on common typos. These problems might have easier and better solutions than letting tech giants takeover a formerly open Internet protocol that anyone should have the ability to use.
A significant portion of ML workloads involve predicting or classifying something. Linear/logistic regression of the right variables/features typically gets a significant portion of the data's ability to predict /classify correctly, while being significantly easier to build, train, deploy, and understand.

Heck, in a large number of domains, simple ratios -- debt to income ratio in finance for example -- will dominate the feature weight for many models and can be used on their own as a pretty good heuristic.
Well, except for the part where there are news articles with him talking about doing a layoff because the economy is super bad. But maybe Tesla’s workers have drank the “all journalism is clickbait” kool-aid and don’t read the news. In which case this becomes smart again.
Organizations are made up of people. When you have 5000 people making small decisions with 0.1% possibility of being wrong, if have 40% of chance having at least one mistake over 5000 decisions.
The Elon / TSLA fanboys need to update their conspiracy theory. Blodget doesn’t even own BI, which everyone knows.

I think Elon himself helped to spread this conspiracy, when he would be fully aware it’s complete BS. This demonstrates to me that he is willing to engage in the dangerous game of pushing fake news on his blind followers to get them to go after his enemies, even if it makes no sense. These are the exact sort of people who should not have any power, because they’ll happily abuse it to cause societal harm.

As underpowered as it was I somehow miss my pixi. It was just so tiny and the keyboard was surprisingly practical. The convex shape of the keys made sure you wouldn't press 2 keys at the same time. I did much less typing errors than I do know.
Every feature has a complexity burden it imposes on the overall system, and also a risk profile to causing failures as the overall environment changes.

Some features are definitely not worth the complexity they impose. Sometimes a feature is so important you need to add it despite the systemic risk that it obviously carries.

Most of the time the designer or implementer doesn’t stop to even consider this analysis and just fires off some code to add the feature and lets it become “technical debt” because it’s SEP at that point.

The best engineers have an immediate intuition about these types of features and a visceral reaction when asked to code them. Something along the lines of, “I have a bad feeling about this” to “No way I’m coding this, it’s a metaphorical bridge just waiting to collapse.”

If malice requires intent I think most of the time there isn’t actual malice. If malice can stem from ignorance then I fully agree with you.
The annoying thing about the major email services (Gmail, Outlook, et al) using reputation as a key input in their spam prevention algorithms is that they don't handle reputation in a way sympathetic to small and hobbyist mail server operators at all.

Google and Microsoft have the computation and data storage resources to forever record how much spam they've received from the mail servers operated by any given small company or hobbyist. If a domain's authoritative mail servers have a history of never sending spam, when that company or hobbyist (for any reason) has to switch hosting providers and gets a new IP address, Google/Microsoft should recognize that the domain, and its referenced mail servers, has never been malicious.

But instead, the majors treat a new IP address for a long-established domain as entirely new to the internet and assign it zero, or even negative, reputation. And they don't care to address this because, well, why care about hobbyists and the rare small company insolent enough to try to self-host email?
>I'll ride 20 miles to the start of a ride pretty often

Given that weekend road rides here often start at 0700, I'm absolutely not gonna do that. ;)

And don't get me wrong; Houston isn't nearly as hostile to cycling as it was 20 years ago. We just made the top 50 cities for bike-ability (#29!), which is recognition of the improvements we've been slowly making -- protected surface lanes are part of that, but the BIGGEST part is the large-and-growing system of trails along the bayous, some of which mesh in with rails-to-trails initiatives.

You can ride for hours on these trails with only minimal interaction with conventional streets, and they're laid in ways that make commutes viable for lots of people.

Can you please elaborate on working remote with ssh? How exactly does it work and what do you do? Are you sshing into a server and work there with your VSCode GUI? I only have connected it to WSL2 yet (by simply calling code from the terminal).
You're not wrong. I built up a frame from '89 with random leftovers from more recent bikes and it works. No oddball standards or 'well, you'll have to get an adapter' silliness. It was kindof refreshing to build AND it functions just fine.

Somewhere in the 90's - early 00's was peak bike and I think most (but not all) progress after that came from marketing departments.

Exceptions: MTB geometry changes (debatable), dropper posts, aero wheels.

Not exceptions: internal cable routing, proprietary integrated brakes/handlebars/stems/bottle cages/forks, 1x don't @ me.
We have hills here and I very much enjoy being able to drop my chain 10 or 16 teeth at a time with my 2x11 mountain and 2x10 all road setups.

I wouldn't go back to 3x9 though. Maybe on the vintage road bike where finding any crankset other than a road 52/42 is an adventure.
Now they've fixed it.
Really makes you wonder what Microsoft gains keeping this stuff in their closed-source bubble.
of course it is a monopoly.
What about faster feedback loops for those 10 year horizons?
To this day nobody does notifications as well as WebOS did.

IMO the hard-headed refusal to make a touch keyboard even optionally available also contributed to their demise.
It absolutely does.

It says that cable-pull systems require more (and more intense) maintenance than electronic systems do.
I'm not complaining about Rust. It's a very good language.

I'm complaining about everybody on programming forums, including HN, seeing Rust as the replacement for most, if not all languages. My opinion is that Rust's ideal problem space is much narrower than people think.
A big productivity booster for me was using /etc/hosts to block distracting websites. Like Hacker News haha
UserBenchmarks are completely unreliable.

If tomshardaware are starting to promote that, then it makes them unreliable, too.
It doesn't matter either way, the end result is the same.
Is he including year 3 and 4 RSUs when calculating that? If so not a great comparison as comparable companies don't back-weight RSUs and also give bigger refreshers after year 1.

Amazon has dramatically increased pay in the last year though, to be fair.
That is one of my favorite sci fi novels!
If you have a dirty filter it may be actually making your air quality worse (in some ways) than just not running the filter at all. It seems like bacteria caught in the filter are dying and releasing endotoxins, which are small enough to escape the filter and then are sent throughout the environment.
Yeah. Tesla knows how to make motors and battery packs, but they don't really know how to make cars. Established automakers are liable to eat their lunch once they catch up technologically. In fact, they don't even have to catch up; just be good enough.
> It won't be 2007-2008 bad

It will be far worse since we're still in the unresolved credit bubble that created that crash. We never actually solved the core problems that created that crisis.

What we're seeing now is the beginning of what we have avoided for over a decade, and narrowly dodged during the pandemic, start to finally unravel.

Is it just bias from such a long, fun ride that tech has had that make people unable to see this? Back in 2019 there were plenty of people deeply worried about our credit system and the fragility of our global economy. Our actions to avoid catastrophe in 2020 only allowed the issue to become worse.

We've been living in a fantasy economy so long people have started to believe that nothing is real (just a few days ago there was a post claiming that "natural resources" don't exist and everything is fantasy). But a variety of factors are coming together that so that we'll see the revenge of reality. I don't think it's going to be pretty.
How would the first mail come through ?
> Can you really blame corporations

Yes, because carbon isn't priced into the economy, and corporations lobby to maintain that status quo. Moreover, consumers can't choose between "cheap" and "environmentally friendly" because corporations don't publish information about the carbon footprint of their products (although they do lots of greenwashing--advertising "environmentally friendly" with no actual accountability).

The solution is pricing carbon emissions into the economy so the market will figure out how to use those emissions most efficiently. The function of "blame" here is to make it less advantageous for corporations to obstruct the path toward averting climate change.

Note also that corporations aren't the only ones who deserve blame: there are also the politicians in their pockets on both sides. Obviously the Republicans who deny climate change, but also those Democrats who preach it and then do next to nothing to stop it (throwing a few billion at the least-effective conceivable climate initiatives) or use it for cover for trillions of dollars of progressive social spending (via "climate justice").
I thought the waste also can be used for heat? How about a steerling engine?

I guess to be more fair we better flip a coin to determine which way the coin should initially face when we flip it
I don’t think Tesla needs any illusion though. Their product Sells like hotcakes. Of course the stock is still crazy valued so it’s not sustainable to keep this valuation

I’m a graphics programmer and I use a physical one fairly often while debugging shaders

With rendering code I find a lot of the time you have to draw it out on paper to understand what it is doing/how it works

Typically simple calculations involving trig/vectors

I find it easier to have a physical one rather than flipping back and forth between paper/computer
Bug or malice, the end result is the same. I hope EU regulators pick on this and land a hefty fine.
That's because the words arent related in meaning; they're related by how often the words-as-symbols cooccur in a bank of historical documents.

Ask HN: Best Front end generation framework for Backend Developers?
Hi Everyone,

I am a pure backend developer who has spent time with languages like Java/C/C#/Node/Python. In the recent times where all frontend is being created using React/Typescript - Do you still believe backend languages are fit to create best frontend websites, themes, dashboards and panels ?

If so, do they have established component frameworks that can be used from Day 1 ?

If so which framework do you use and share your website to convince me of the glory too ?

Try Semantle Junior. I don't know exactly how it selects the "easier words" though

Edit: So the way he grabs words for the original is out of the 5000 "most popular" words in English. Still not sure about the Junior version, maybe it is an even more restricted list. Or it looks like it might just be restricted to nouns since it does seem to be easier to guess things close to a physical item.
Last time I looked the whole dev over SSH was not supported by VSCodium.

Is that going to change in the near future?
Oh sorry, didn't mean to imply the library was yours. Only that you posted it.

Agreed - I think all such libraries are interesting. Knowing the pitfalls of them is also useful and not obvious.
It's a good point. If YouTube were my day job, I'm not sure that I would turn down the significant money from sponsorships. If I didn't personally dislike ads so much, I'd probably have already done it. Patreon may not require a huge shift in viewer relationship: Only 1-2% of my viewers support me on Patreon, but even this provides more revenue than basic YouTube ads. The vast majority of viewers benefit from the generosity of the 1-2%, and everyone seems OK with this setup.
> I never understood the purpose of the bottom filter in the Corsi-Rosenthal Box

It's for when the box fan is not sitting on the floor - either raised up on feet (which many have), sitting in a window, or hung somewhere. That said, you're right - 4 packs are easier to come by and probably work nearly as well in the real world.
Bikes are not feasible because of intentional urban design decisions, not because of inherent values of American geography.

Needing to travel 30 miles for a grocery store applies to only a tiny, tiny minority of Americans here.

edit: some data to back up my point: https://www.ers.usda.gov/amber-waves/2019/june/us-shoppers-a...

> When the ERS researchers looked at rural food store access, they found that the median distance to the nearest and the third-nearest food store was 3.1 miles and 6.1 miles, respectively.

6 miles is pretty far to go by bike each way, no doubt, though 3 miles isn't too bad, especially if you use an ebike, and those are steadily becoming more affordable. That would be in the range of 10-15 minutes each way.

That said, the bigger problem right now is having decent bike infrastructure to actually get there, rather than the distance.
Strongly disagree. I'm completely ambivalent as to whether the accusation is true or not – I have literally no idea and probably never will. Elon didn't come out and say, "hey there are accusations coming about an issue that was settled long ago outside of court, I maintain position X."

He said, "I am switching to the Republican party, expect political hit pieces."

He has turned his legal issue into a Republican vs Democrat issue. That's slimy regardless of the veracity of the allegations.
No, God only knows what that service was intended for. :D

I do remember our town had a local number, 8463, that we could call to get current time and temperature played back to us.

Yeah, I really don't know how well 1x setups work for people in hillier places. I did a big charity ride through the Texas hill country about a month ago, and I didn't even take my normal road bike (53/39, 11-25). I took my "endurance" frame that's geared way easier (50/34, 11-28).

A 1x would've been miserable, and this was a weekend with only maybe 6,000 feet of climbing.

That said, are they even MAKING 2x mountain bike setups anymore?

What's the consumer preference re child labour? What's the consumer preference re slavery or conflict diamonds? What's the consumer preference re leaded gasoline? How about factories polluting rivers, as was common in the US not that long ago? Should we have told people to prefer undyed fabric because it would create less pollution?

Let's not limit society to just what "consumer preference" determines. We should be using our institutions (ie the government) to make things better.
Yes, but: Sufficiently advanced incompetence is indistiguishable from malice
Lots of people writing their own data structures and libraries should be a reflection of the different needs and diversity of the ecosystem, but if it's a reflection of difficulty then it tends to lead to a much narrower ecosystem.

That isn't to say a narrow ecosystem is necessarily bad, it can often be good if a particular language is used for a specific domain as all the libraries and data structures will likely be a better fit for your problems. Going outside of those constraints can often be very punishing in those languages though.
