You’re completely ignoring the capital markets differences between public and private assets. Companies require capital to operate, capital has a cost, the cost is different depending on which capital market you fundraise from.

The size of these markets are different, their demands on returns and time horizons are different. This provides a much better variety of capital choices for companies searching for capital. If only the public equity market existed, the capital market would be very inefficient. This is microeconomics 101, increase choice/variety to most efficiently meet demand without creating deadweight loss.
Refactoring is probably a sign of problems, unless by refactoring one means ”giving abstract structure to yet unstructured code”, i.e. factoring for the first time.

That needs to happen after feature-completeness, but before a project goes into maintenance.
I tried Appsmith, Budibase and a few others, because I had a need for some admin UI for a startup, and I thought that low-code would get me there quickly. I thought I could take a shortcut. I'm an experienced coder, so my biases surely play a role here. I was expecting these low-code tools to offer abstractions to make the effort for low-complexity problems very low (like the article suggests). Instead, I found that they were really just a point-and-click version of the code writing I'd otherwise do. All the complexity was still there (at which time the ergonomics of the tool becomes very important, and let's just say... that didn't help). I think the article is thus also flawed in some of its assumptions and conclusions.

There seems to be a rise of these low-code tools, and something good may certainly come from it. But when I looked at them (approx. 9 months ago), it just simply wasn't "there" yet. I also don't think that what they offer in 2022 is much better an experience than what I did in 2002 with Microsoft Access (which I've left behind me long since).
When things like these happen, a rehash of ancient internet idea presented as new again, makes me feel very sad, like the internet is old and dying or sth. I understand it's all about UX etc now , but i wish twitter's competitors did not just copy but instead tried to make their audience a little bit smarter. If the UX is not dumb-proof, you might not get hordes of users, but at least the ones who are there will have a bit of brains.
Sorry, but I disagree, and my point is even simpler.

Take the evolution of temperature measurements through proxies (although that is not my field). If at some point it becomes known that some method of measurement is biased, then that implies a re-evaluation of past research.

Every time such adjustments happen, there is a meta-learning regarding the pace of adjustments and the severity, and also regarding which people andinstitutions prefer to stick to "old" or perhaps more conservative interpretations in some sense.

When you try to summarize the scientific consensus, you need to do so by literature because (1) the composition of the field is always changing to some degree and (2) you will never get all scientists to tell you their opinion at the same point in time.

But when you do this - summarize the literature - it is crucially important to adjust for historic biases, drift in methods adoption and interpretation and so on.

And this is just the measurements part: There is also the problem of predatory journals etc etc. - all of these can skew the "consensus" if you don't account for them.

So I'm pretty convinced that your argument of a pure, "individually verifiable" science is desirable, but has never existed and never will.
That was me. Sorry about that.
Is there a reason why client side TLS certificates never took off as a form of authentication? Unlike webauthn, it doesn't depend on a specific application level protocol like HTTP.
Don't use HN to spam.
But that's the thing - even with double encryption tailscale and your SSO can run commands on your machines

1) Run tailscale --ssh on your server
2) A malicious SSO or tailscale add a new machine to your network and update your ACL such that the new machine can connect to your server
3) ssh from the new machine to run code on your server

The fact that the connection between the malicious machine and your server is double encrypted doesn't affect the attack here at all

If you click the "Comments ->" link in the meta section on the left nav of the review, it will take you to my version of the comments panel.

A couple improvements I made:

* You can see the whole discussion. The last time I used CodeFlow it only showed one line of the comment which often wasn't enough for me to remember what it was so in practice I always had to click on every single one to see the whole thing. Not a big deal with CodeFlow since it was so snappy as you mentioned.

* It shows a preview of the code that was commented on to provide context.

Thanks for taking a look! Great to see other CodeFlow fans out there.
Never make prototypes easy on the eyes. Use Comic Sans liberally. That way nobody will assume it is the final application which just needs a few touches.
Some of these articles, the "before" is so absurd and unintuitive, that it is hard to believe the author actually built that app this way, as opposed to making up an example on which to base an article.

A TCN can only compel a targeted capability where doing so does not require introduction of a systemic weakness.

If the system is secured in such a way that the targeted capability isn't possible (e.g. open-source project with e2e encryption and verifiable builds), the government cannot compel introduction of a systemic weakness (e.g. stop using verifiable builds) to make it possible.

My suggestion is that Apple/Google build their software such that it is systemically secure against targeted attacks.

Yes, it can be expensive, but nowhere near as expensive as paying per-GiB rates to a cloud for your traffic (which itself is nowhere near as expensive as paying a cloud's rates for compute if you try to do decode/encode in the cloud).

If we are talking about doing realtime video at large scale, we can assume that there is good ops competency in-house. If not, honestly, what are you doing?

Managing fleets of servers across several of the "automation-friendly-but-not-cloud" providers using modern tools is not difficult for some moderately-expensive-but-not-as-expensive-as-cloud-services ops engineers.
Good one. If it works that's all that matters.
Could someone explain how you don’t lose track of a message irretrievably in Slack if you don’t respond to it right away? There doesn’t seem to be any way to ever find anything again without looking through every single channel and DM conversation once it’s read — no way to see every message you’ve received by date or anything like that. And DM conversations just drop off the sidebar entirely if you have too many of them.
Don’t fret, Airplane is far from unique in that.

Using code as the underlying format for low-code/no-code products is common and long-practiced; sometimes editable and exposed to the user, sometimes just to take advantage of existing code/text tooling.

People have been building NCLC systems for decades, but they tend to thrive best when they settle into a specific domain focus.

At that point, nobody outside the domain hears about them and nobody inside the domain even thinks of them in the terminology of “no-code low-code”

If you start squinting though,
you can spot them all over the place.

I found a page by Duo Labs listing Noise in Production.

https://duo.com/labs/tech-notes/noise-protocol-framework-int...

Noise is used today in several high-profile projects:
WhatsApp uses the "Noise Pipes" construction from the specification to perform encryption of client-server communications
WireGuard, a modern VPN, uses the Noise IK pattern to establish encrypted channels between clients
Slack's Nebula project, an overlay networking tool, uses Noise
The Lightning Network uses Noise
I2P uses Noise

Not really (for the first part at least, am not yet finished with the second part). I did deviate a little bit with my Rust implementation.

This was my goal anyway: implement Lox differently. Off the top of my head:

* I used ADTs to encapsulate error types and states as much as possible, this lead to heavy use of enums and pattern matching.
* I implemented the `Environment` as an immutable, explicitly passed value. This was a little challenging at first, but overall quite satisfying to do.
Imagine going to a master craftsperson, and telling them you want them to give you the 80% experience for 20% of the price.

How to do that without being disrespectful?

How come programmers accept this kind of disrespect for their craft? Aren’t they supposed to be the masters, the Hattori Hanzos of program code?
The killer app for the metaverse is "story." Come up with a world where you get to be part of a story. Specially one that can't be created in the real world. If someone can do that then people will spend their whole paycheck in there. Think of being part of something like Harry Potter or The Lord of the Rings and you'll never want to get out.

I disagreed with your line of thinking and explained my reasons why. I’m not sure where you got “dismissive tone”/treating you like you’re dumb. My intent wasn’t to belittle you personally, but I do have an axe to grind with free speech absolutism.

As for payment company power - I agree they shouldn’t be the arbiters of what is acceptable - but you tried to link people asking them to stop taking payments for nazis to this like one lead to the other which is absolutely not the case.

My point is through well crafted hate speech laws and a functioning legal system we can have both - platforms that ban nazis AND payment processing that isn’t able to influence speech.
To play devil's advocate, the reason a private equity firm should use a continuation is that it wants to hold an asset past the fund's 10-year life because the asset is continuing to perform very well. 10 years ago, many private equity firms felt heartburn from letting big software winners go after 5 years because that's the typical fund cycle.

In reality, LPs and GPs would have been better off reliably holding the same growing asset for 15-20 years as the company went from $10M in EBITDA to $250M. Why take a 3x in 5 years when you can get a 25x in 15 years? The annual compounding works out to be roughly the same. The only issue is your fund structure so you trade it amongst yourself every 3-5 years at a 3-4x mark that makes you look good to your investors. The growth is usually there so it is not a lie though liberty may be taken with multiples which expanded rapidly over the last decade.

This phenomenon has been used aggressively, perhaps too aggressively, in software and particularly software roll-ups where you can comfortably compound 20-30% EBITDA growth annually between 10-15% organic growth (half or more of which is just price increases) and an aggressive M&A strategy that drives higher margins.

That said, this article is raising an early and important alarm bell to the broader public, who have a vested interest because their pensions are invested in these firms, that certain firms may be using it too aggressively. When I scan the broader PE landscape, the firm that has used it to the most success is Clearlake Capital. I don't have insight into their whole portfolio but have heard criticisms that they overuse it. Or that their is incestuous trading of assets between them, TA Associates, Hg, Insight Partners, FP, Thoma, and a handful of others.

To prevent macroing in your house they split the world into a grid of tiles sized 8x8 steps and linked your gain to the grid. This worked by hashing the tile coordinates and your skill level to find out the probability of gaining a skill point at that location.

The hash function was poorly chosen which had the effect that if you found a tile where you gained a skill point, there was a good chance the tile 8 steps to your North would let you gain another skill point.

So the algorithm became:
1. Run boat continuously trying the skill over and over
2. Stop when there is a skill gain
3. Move boat 8 steps north
4. Do skill again
5. Gain? Go to 3
6. Otherwise, go to 1

As someone who has tried a million varieties of both craft beer and weed, and honestly prefers the latter, there is so much more variability with beer it's not even a contest.

I used to have a joke I would make with dealers back when weed was illegal and that was the only way to buy it. I would ask what kind of weed they were selling me and they would always come up with a crazy name for it, "Mind Crusher Ultra Sour Diesel" or whatever, take your pick. I'd wait for them to finish and then ask "Will it get me high?" and they would laugh and say of course. The joke being, we all know that being high off any given strain is pretty damn similar. It's not like I was going to say "Oh, never mind" if he said the wrong name.

It's as if craft beer manufactures were advertising their beer got you a different kind of drunk. Sounds ridiculous right?

This is what the concept of DSLs are/were...

Famous example, Photoshop. UI that makes complex things seem simple...and a scripting language under the hood which ties into the (incredibly complex) internal operations, for the multitude of things you really can't do in a UI... and instead you get "plugins" with specialized code doing those complex, not possible to generalize in a simple UI, tasks.

That's culture and not an economic necessity. They also have a months holiday, maternity leave, and healthcare isn't 20% gdp. The French would say that Americans work a lot for little pay.

This is the general issue of distributing dynamically linked binaries on Linux and not really due to Python itself.

On Windows you can generate a folder with a bunch of files in it along an .exe that starts your app pretty easily and that'll work in most places just fine and is not excessively large, either.
That's actually a use case I've thought about. When review time came around, one of my past managers would compile statistics on everyone's reviews to see how much they've been participating.

Another feature I've thought about is "show me all of person X's reviews and comments across all repos". That would have been super useful when I was on promo panels to go through and see if a promo candidate's review comments were useful, constructive, kind, etc.

Thanks for the feedback. I really appreciate it!

It was simpler than that, it just limited the number of gains you could make per 8x8 cell, but moving out of that cell and into another (in any direction) reset your ability to gain skills. Due to how players moved around in the world, that was sufficient to prevent macroing in-place, but since nobody knew how many cells it remembered you being in, AFK levelers just traveled around the entire world continuously in a boat.

Author here. I would happily share information like hashes and build artifacts with Microsoft and other virus scanners if it would fix all these false positives. However I don't know how to do that (other than uploading to VirusTotal which I've always done) and Windows is just 1 out of the 6 platforms we support. I don't charge money for redbean. I don't have a commercial interest in distributing these binaries. I'm just an open source developer trying to help out. It's up to the community members who want to see it unflagged with Windows to help us make that happen, and I'm happy to cooperate in any way I can.
That's a great anecdote. Ultima Online was mind-blowing to me when I first read about it in early 1997 and then started playing later that year. There was something magical about just being in a virtual world where other players would go around doing their thing while you did yours.
Ultima Online server emulators were also what really got me hooked on programming in my teens. I'm now a CS prof working on collaborative systems.

Recently, I've started playing again. I stumbled over a project called Ruins & Riches (http://ruinsandriches.com) that's a total modification of Ultima Online in the spirit of the early Ultima games. I don't do MMOs anymore, but Ruins & Riches can easily be played alone or as a small group.
