I don’t get the hate- I like the style of the new graphics, and I think they are a sensitive updating of what’s good about monkey island’s original graphical vibe.

I guess I am the target nostalgia demographic though; 70s latchkey kid. I fully intend to play this with my kids and enjoy the shit out of it.
It's not unusual for companies who are doing fine to use industry layoffs as cover to cut under-performing employees.
Because these articles are meant to stay for years.

People will keep linking to them and say "didn't you see? V uses shell to do http requests! what a joke"

This most recent article by an anonymous author had all of the issues fixed within several days, but it wasn't updated, it'll stay like this forever, as planned.
Being under anesthesia is extremely different than being asleep.
It's supposed to be funny. Why does it make you sick?
Sounds like an enemy centered value system.
It was an interm measure for the armv7 -> arm64 transition, where they used it to convert armv7 binaries to a wacky 32-bit version of arm64.

It was also used for a few misguided things over the years, like force-enabling Swift Concurrency backdeployment for apps submitted to the app store, which mostly just introduced bugs that only happened on app store/test flight installs for zero benefit.
Funding OSS maintainers like YouTube funds creators
Here we go with Hacker News and China.

Don't people here think it's kind if suspicious that nothing ever positive gets written about China in the western media?

Something positive happened in China? CCP propaganda!

Like nothing ever good happens in a huge land with 1.4 billion people and thousands of years of rich history?

Only thing that ever gets posted here are how China steals IP, how Chinese people aren't smart enough to invent their own stuff (check long history), etc. etc.

It's really annoying.
Facebook is evil? Paypal? How?
Lathes are only seen this way because they can go very big. The instant death accidents happen with the big ones, especially the ones designed to quickly remove lots of material from big metal pieces.

Otherwise lathes aren't more dangerous than any other piece of machinery with exposed moving pieces. In particular the ones designed to turn small pieces of wood can't do much harm.

Don't leave the chuck key in, wear eye protection, no loose hair, no loose clothes, don't be stupid and you will be fine.
Yeah, it's the freedom and democracy everyone else dislikes so much. I mean, not Saudi Arabia, they love freedom. I mean, Yemen. Yemen doesn't like freedom.
So you can pop on down to your local news stand and still find the Apple Daily?
Agree to disagree. An author saying that proves the bias and the attack angle.
Ask HN: How many APIs does your company connect to?
The title has been editorialized to emphasize workplaces that don't actively share some values, but the specific survey result from Qualtrics (midway through the article) is actually:

> 54% — said they would be willing to take a pay cut to work at a company that shares their values.

> And 56% said they wouldn’t even consider a job at a company that has values they disagree with

So, for a company that doesn't go around taking sides, there may be less willingness to take a pay cut for a good cause, but presumably the full talent market is open for them.
Not to pry, but do you have any examples of this?
And so fucking what? Jeez, take a look at yourself before demanding everyone around you to be 100% faultles, pure paragon of virtue.
The amount of effort it would take and the quality of that effort, when I already have a full-time job.

Edit: I have 3 kids, and they all learn in quite different ways. I can't really give one presentation to all 3 on something. The pandemic gave me a little glimpse into what home schooling would be like.
How does this apply with edibles or oils? I assume since most of those are sold with a published THC level, there's an incentive to produce stronger plant? Less plant for more edible/oil/whatever?
It's really hard to dose "1 hit". It's not like a shot of liquor. And inexperienced users are not experts at hitting pipes or vapes or joints, so that "1 hit" becomes even trickier. And if you fuck up, whoops, now you're uncomfortably high for several hours!

Better to have a much wider variety of potencies available, like we have with alcohol. Especially for the casual users who have been ignored by the market because traditional dealers get most of their money from heavy users, and heavy users want the chronic.
What problem does adding a common “did:” prefix to these identifiers solve over plain old URIs?

Or perhaps my question is more general. What problem does this particular common standard address that individually standardised uri-schemes would not?
The relevant thing is how long they support it from when they stop selling a device, not from when they started selling a device. You can still buy a brand new series 3 Watch from Apple _today_. Those devices are getting zero years of support.
Yes, that's also the vibe I got.
I upvoted you, but you are talking about smaller time scales. In Rome, between 15% and 35% were hereditary slaves. Then for a thousand years, the majority of the European population were serfs (freer than slaves). In the last 150 years, most people in Europe and in the US are able to choose their own jobs. That's the transition I am talking about. I think the fiat money and current war on free enterprise will ultimately end with a regime change.
Please Excuse My Dear Aunt Sally in my classes. Fascinating!
Well it ain't a secret operation, maybe it's because of that.

The support on Ukraine war is very public, and it's part of the war effort.
> The trails of blood and destruction they left are well known and documented.

You're saying Europe should not have retaliated for all the land and people that were stolen? They were at war, under attack for centuries, but if they counter-attack, well that's the worst thing ever, still remembered almost a thousand years later, while the Muslim attacks they were responding to go largely unmentioned. It's bizarre.
Yeah I'm pretty confused as to why people are suggesting all toasters with super-dupe sandwich cage thingies. Why care about the orientation of your food while it is toasting?
I'd be happy with a law that said Youtube were responsible for people who hurt themselves copying videos which they were recommended which were wildly unsafe.

If the result of that is Google has to charge people a moderation fee for videos they then recommend, then fine, that's the cost we have to pay.
Do you have some links to this? A few cursory quacks turned up nothing.

My family loves those channels but it would be interesting to see how the structures hold up and how/if they are ever used.
This all strikes me as very Life-of-Brian-ish:

> "I'm not the messiah!"

> "Only the true messiah would deny his divinity."

> "Well what chance does that give me?! Alright, I am the messiah!"

If the CEO says layoffs are coming, people freak out. So the CEO says no layoffs are coming, so we immediately assume that layoffs are coming.
At my company I build integrations to a lot of apis and I was wondering anyone else runs into the same types of problems?

They're not popular apis so not a lot of tutorials on the subject.
Not very good documentation, just building a object model wrapper is kind of a pain and really boring.
Let me fix this for you.

> I think we forget over time and become complacent to the strong possibility that the US maintaining its economic and defense hegemony has generally resulted in fewer non-American people doing bad things.

American hegemony is mostly good for the US. Let's not lie about doing 'good' elsewhere. American actions have destabilized many countries and governments to secure and advance American interests. Have American citizens benefited? Probably.

> So you go from a generation who used the military might to stop literal Nazis and effectively save the world.
Follow that up with generations of overthrowing democratically elected governments and fostering civil wars globally.

> to more of a lull where people forget that and start calling for a removal of all foreign bases and a reduction in might, to being smacked by the reality again that bad people predictably do bad things, such as russias invasion of ukraine.

I don't think people want a removal of all naval bases or military presence, just enough to pay for fucking healthcare, teachers, food, bridges, and housing. You know the usual basic necessities for life. I guess killing and maiming people around the world is just easier to do.

> it’s good overall that we have this military might, even if not everyone appreciates it.
That remains to be seen. Tell me that in a few years when we have more guns than food and water.

As always, unless you're colorblind, the world exists in color, not black and white.
As all business focused companies, Google and its shareholders cares only for money. If they only could, they would sell newborn children as target practice for muscal cолдат-s. All sanctions can be easily avoided with resellers and “good will” from management and creative paperwork. Here they even didn't try.
Why can’t salt water be used as a refrigerant?
CacheLib appears to be a library that's useful to large centralized organizations that control large numbers of servers. So it is probably not value-neutral, but a force for increasing social centralization. "Scale" is fundamentally authoritarian, and it necessitates hierarchies of domination within abusive corporate structures.

Imagine what the engineer capable of writing CacheLib would have done instead, had they not worked for Facebook.
In the long term this decision is better for regulation. Anything that a president gets the EPA to do can be undone by a president that disagrees with them. By it's nature the presidency is unitary - so any president will find it difficult to compromise with itself.

Congress on the other hand - even the House though less so then the Senate - requires compromise, requires some degree of buy in from all parties involved. This means less sweeping action - but anything that does get done will have advantages to a larger majority. Those supporting it will have an interest in it continuing because they will have been given something for their vote.
I don't understand the outrage at this art style. Granted, I've never played any of the Monkey Island games, and have no emotional attachment to the content. To me, the art style seems very similar to a Cartoon Network cartoon, and that may have broad appeal to kids today. Like I kind of understand why people are upset: this thing you loved 32 years ago is being vandalized in your eyes. However, you're really old now, your prefrontal cortex should be fully developed, so get over it.
This LinkedIn post [0] had good suggestions, notably:

1. Don't over-hire in the first place

2. Don't do lay-offs, explore other options like universal paycuts or (IMO) particularly pay cuts for execs

The post has a lot more suggestions if you've committed to layoffs.

I could give two shits about the art style.

I just can't stand the worry that he's going to grimdark the storyline. It is important to me that guybrush and elaine and the gang don't go that way.
Qualcomm | Austin, TX, USA | Full Time | ONSITE | QEMU

https://qualcomm.wd5.myworkdayjobs.com/en-US/External/job/Se...

My team is looking to hire 2 software developers to help us design and extend QEMU support [1] for the Hexagon DSP [2]. We're looking for candidates who have experience coding in C, C++ or Rust* and who aren't afraid of rolling up their sleeves and poring over disassembled code. This particular architecture is a bit more challenging than most, because it's a bit unique. It's a VLIW [3], so it's a great opportunity to learn about an interesting architecture. Millions of Hexagon DSPs are out there, most are found in Snapdragon SoCs for Android phones and more!

We collaborate a lot with Open Source communities like QEMU, LLVM [4], the Linux kernel [5], and more. I love being able to work on Open Source software at my day job.

If you have any questions, you can contact me directly (email addr is in my HN user link). If you don't have experience with QEMU - don't worry! Most of us didn't have any experience with it until recently, too.

All of the team lives locally around Austin. Parts of the team work remotely, and come into the office ~2-5 days/wk. It may be possible to make this position r_emote-and-not-living-near-Austin -- for the right candidate.

* Rust experience may serve the role well but we don’t (yet) have any product software in Rust.

One of my best engineers came from a layoff. He stayed with us until the end. I know he went on (after being laid off from our company) to do pretty intense stuff.

Good with math. He was trained as a physicist.
Btw, there are still plenty of bees in the lavender field. We get both bumble bees and honey bees. But here is the interesting bit..I have many kinds of lavender..in one section, I planted a block of purple lavender next to white lavender..and bumble bees and honey bees picked the white and purple sections respectively and never mixed!! It was the weirdest thing!!

I wonder if it’s a strategy for them to watch out for predators that are different coloured than them. I have seen bumblebees in purple lavender and honeybees in the white section and on white flowers..but when they swarm in large numbers, they keep separate.

And I know they are not colour blind. I have also heard that humming bird prefer red flowers..that’s not true. Thor is the resident humming bird of the oldest elderberry tree(all farm hummingbirds are called ‘Thor’) and I have seen the same Anna and Rufus hummingbirds at the passionflowers too. So..don’t know..they must have some territorial divide and dine strategy. The hummingbirds at least get super territorial and can be mean with each other…they just look cute. Humming birds are lean mean flying fighting machines with a sword attached to their face.

The difference between now and 2001 is the reliance the rest of the world has on the tech we work on. Some of this stuff is trivial but a lot of it has people/enterprises that rely on the work we do.
StellarPeers is a service that tries to do this. I subscribed in the past, but found my peers to be noobs who didn’t know what to criticize and were in the same boat as I. I also found it to heavily skew towards Indian peers. So maybe this is a service for Indians looking for jobs in India, idk.

Email: heather@fucci.dev

I'm a software engineer that is tired of attempting to transition into the industry by taking adjacent jobs in tech. My decade long career has been defined by me taking a role on an IT/tech support team and finding ways to create software solutions for my work in order to demonstrate my engineering ability. This strategy has been unsuccessful aside from exposing me to software development at every layer of the stack with a large variety of disparate systems.

If you need a software engineer who's not going to shy away from any technology you put in front of her, with the customer service skills to back it up, I'm your gal.

I'm currently working nights so replies may come late.
Great that they have gone open-source, but whatever this project is, their github page and their website are some of the worst I have ever seen from a communications perspective!

I have absolutely no clue what on earth a browser for programmers is and why it would help me to 'think clearly'.

Contrast to Firefox and Chrome websites - both of which have a screenshot on their landing page.
meanwhile, russia already used its hypersonic missile to strike a target in Ivano Frankovsk, Ukraine. less than 100 miles from NATO border.

The trouble is that high pressure means more embodied energy, and when we start talking about embodied energy, "CO2 equivalent of 250 gallons of gas" isn't that much. Just releasing the gasses into the atmosphere once or twice might pencil out.

Regardless they are very widely deployed in existing equipment which can't be upgraded, so a program to collect and burn these gasses is a very good thing.
This work is high impact for low effort (relative to carbon removal and sequestration), ready to deploy today, and largely overlooked. This type of effort is crucial to address — as fast as possible. I'm really happy to see this.
One thing to realize is that "wind chill" also has a reverse effect that occurs when it's hot outside.

As a human, with a normal body temperature of 98.6 degrees F. If the outside air temperature is 100 degrees F, then having your windows rolled down will actually increase the speed at which your body heats up to match ambient temperatures.

This makes driving motorcycles in desert areas where air temp is > 100 degrees especially dangerous as it can quickly lead to dehydration and heat stroke.
+1 I totally agree with you: the US government has been printing money (if you will allow an imprecise analogy) like crazy to prop up property values and stock equities. I don't know anyone who thinks that the future will be anywhere as good as 1990-2015 (even allowing for 2001 and 2007-2008 downturns).

Both political parties service wall street and our defense industry, not regular people and don't really care about inflation and other problems that slam the poor and lower middle class. Printing money is good for the republican's and democrat's constituents (the elites).
Well, github claims to be social network. Sooner or later these features were supposed to popup. Its a miracle it took so many years to come.
Move to another platform is our only option.
Well done! I took the 608 Type 1 exam (online open book) but never went beyond that.

Venting refrigerant is illegal in most of the world but it's almost impossible to enforce and compliance is typically quite low (good data is, as you can imagine, difficult to find). CARB in California now requires owners of large refrigeration systems (>250 lb of charge IIRC) to report all refrigerant recharge to the state so at least there's some efforts underway.
> I also don’t understand this argument because you can just take 1 hit and be done.

The increased THC concentration compared to other psychoactive chemicals seems to produce more paranoia and other negative effects in some people, so it's not just a strength issue. The effect is different if the proportion of THC to CBD increases.

It's also easier to get more THC than you intended if you're consuming stronger stuff.

> Should liquor be outlawed because it is stronger than beer?

If spirits are legal then people should at least have the choice of drinking beer.
> our credits are as high-quality as the best carbon removal technology, can scale up much faster, and are currently offered at 1/10th the price

I'm confused about this remark about price. Isn't there a market of buyers and sellers? Why would one sell carbon credits below market price?
I'm a fan of removing legal carve outs for social media companies. If it's hosted on your domain, then you are liable, just as a book publisher would be.

If people want to publish stuff, they can buy a raspberry pi or an s3 bucket.

If people want to moderate content, they can hire an editorial staff (like magazines and podcasts do).

I'm not sure how to handle Wikipedia. It's a net positive for society, and this proposal would effectively ban it. That's the only impacted site I can think of that I think is worth saving.
Faster Routing for Flask and Quart
So are the authors of the fractal wood burning videos criminally negligent?
This is usually negotiable if you're leaving as well, it's not in the companies interest for the most part to keep you hanging around past wrapping current things up.
I still don't see the appeal, what's the advantage of the non-oven toaster? Maybe it is quicker or something? But the toaster oven is a timed device anyway, just run it while the water is boiling for coffee...
vpm has been restarted, I'll move it to another server soon, this one is too busy
