Ask HN: My product isn't making any money, and I have rent and food to pay for
For the past 3-4 years, I have developed one product.

It's called Note Garden(https://notegarden.io), in which users can take notes and keep them in memory by using algorithms. (Remnot has a similar concept.)

There is a very bad situation with this product right now. There have been many things I've tried, but there are very few users, and I can't figure out how to get them.

It is more serious when it comes to the team. I am near my limit of living expenses (rent and food). Both of the other members of the team have fallen into a state of indefinite dormancy, completely demoralized.

In this situation, how should I proceed?

Idk I expect my computer to be able to run at 100% without some sort of death clock

Blaming bad thermal design on "use case" does not make sense to me.

If you'd like to run some intensive numerical programming on your laptop just because, I would find it outrageous for it to shutdown due to thermals. Can other hardware designers use that excuse too? "Oh your software use case is not covered by the cpu voltage regulators", "the power supply was not meant to be on all the time", "the power cable should not be connected for that long", "you should not use 90% of your ram for 4 hours straight, it was not designed for that use case"

"Oh the average end user only uses the car 1h/day. This 5h long trip was not the expected use case, that's why it overheated"
I think there's some considerable debate about that. "User" is quite common, and certainly not wrong.
By "hostile," do you mean "bad faith"?
I would love to party with these people. I think that would be an awesome experience. A long time ago we used to meet up every weekend at an old boss's house to enjoy live music, good food, and to shake a leg on his outdoor dance floor. The beer would flow like water while a fiddle played old Bob Wills tunes and laughing people of all ages spun their partners or tried to steal a dance with someone else's. Many a blanket hit the ground out there. Good times.

I have to admit that I did not consider that I would see a video of people in Africa line dancing to Old Crow Medicine Show. I love their style of bluegrass and to see it getting this level of exposure is great because you can see the people dancing and enjoying it.

This post made me very happy. It was blistering hot outside today and the only shade was all under my son's vehicle where I am doing some maintenance for him. Listening to those short takes in that thread took all the edge off of the day and was reinvigorating. I really enjoyed that and now I have my work cut out for me tracking down some of this music for another Spotify collection that I can share with my kids.
One person on SomethingAwful re-pasted their MBP (of unknown age), and saw reduced temperatures. They never said it was "overheating", Macs (and all Intel/AMD processors...) have thermal throttling so they can't "overheat", and it's normal for thermal paste to degrade within 2-3 years. It's also normal for laptops to get clogged with dust; I saw a huge reduction in temps on my MBP after I cleaned out the heatsinks, having taken the cover off and found them clogged.

The person posted pictures of the original paste job from the factory. The amount of paste is not unreasonable, and what was instead evident was that the paste had dried out, which, again, is normal.

That didn't stop people from overreacting and declaring a corporation (one famous for obsessively controlling its production chain) to be idiots. It did not have "10x the thermal paste needed."

GamersNexus has solidly disproven the "too much paste causes overheating" myth. Excess paste just squirts out the sides, which is not a problem unless it is conductive: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EUWVVTY63hc

What caused people to really lose their minds was a screengrab that was claimed (with no evidence whatsoever) to be from the repair manual showing wildly inappropriate levels of thermal paste being applied. The screenshot was never confirmed and given the source - again, SomethingAwful - it was almost certainly not the repair manual or factory instructions (the factory instructions wouldn't be in English, for starters...)

Stopping in the middle of the road might be dangerous depending on the situation.

If there's something weird about the location where they are stuck -- maybe somebody is jamming GPS or whatever -- then they should at least be able to pull over using local sensors, right?

On the other hand, if there's some effect that is tripping up their sensors -- maybe some odd geometry that, for whatever bizarre reason, looks like a wall to them -- this pretty embarassing, but probably an inevitable growing pain for this technology.

>partitioning by eTLD+1

They were already partitioned by the requested eTLD+1, because they were already partitioned by the requested URL, which contains the requested eTLD+1. Chrome's change was additionally partitioning it by 2 more eTLD+1s: the top-level eTLD+1 and the frame eTLD+1. It looks like Firefox's change was to add 1 eTLD+1 to the original behavior: the top-level eTLD+1.
I suppose I could've clarified, I'm not necessarily looking at it from the perspective of the safety of people in the vehicles.

Right now it's just a small fleet of driverless taxis. Doesn't this demonstrate the potential for it to be, say, every single Honda in the city? Why even limit it to a city? A single manufacturer's critical infrastructure has some kind of fault (malice, shit code, hardware failure - dealer's choice!) and suddenly Fords stop running nationwide, or internationally.

Then I start thinking of the impact to emergency vehicles caused by a cavalcade of stopped cars, and other similar issues.

Again, I need to point out that I'm not trying to be sensationalist or hyperbolic. I'm ignorant here and am genuinely curious how viable these types of scenarios could be. It's clear that it can happen, I'm just curious to what extent.

The "slow" part, for sure. Harm in a collision is largely a matter of kinetic energy.

The "chaotic and unpredictable" part, maybe not. From the statistics I've seen over the years, traffic-related death rates seem to be much higher in places with highly chaotic driving environments. For example, 140 annual traffic deaths per 100,000 vehicles in India vs. 14 in the USA.

It's more economics than psychology though right?

Everyone is in search of an audience, or in economic terms, each producer is in search of consumers.

Once you find a market you can tailor your fit to suit that market. I might start out making leisurewear, but when I discover most of my sales is sweat-pants, I'm likely to focus my attention there, creating more designs in a narrower niche.

"influencer" is a recent career option, so it seems like it's full of unknowns, but clearly it's the same processes. First find an audience, then do whatever it takes to enlarge that audience and make them "buy more tickets".

Music, movies and TV are the same - you might think Jean Claude van Dam movies are formulaic, but clearly he has found an audience that likes that formula. He can't make a romcom because his non-fans won't give it a chance, and his fans won't pay for a romcom.

If you find a sudden audience by going viral, then clearly you're going to try and hold that audience by repeating the formula. And wacko theories always attract good repeat customers, for reasons which are pretty obvious.

One person has perfected this to the point where his audience gives him $250 million when he loses a race, as long as he claims it won. Hmm, maybe influencer isn't such a new job after all (just a new job description).

You know the first thing my wife said when she saw the trailer. She said, "That looks gorgeous and fun." Which is what I imagine that Gilbert is going for. I also really like the look. It's like a modern children's story book come to life.

And why the hell does it matter that it's PUBLISHED by Devolver Digital? I doubt they had say on the look of the game.

My bet is that this is just the absurd Wind Waker hate that anything cartoony and joyful looking gets initially and 20 years from now people will say this is the best game in the series like tons of people do for Wind Waker.
Regarding trains anyway, a) there have been autonomous trains for decades and the numbers are increasing. b) there are 100x as many professional drivers as train conductors in the US - so it's easy to see why the focus on driving. That's where the money is.

You’re right I shouldn’t have painted with such a sweeping brush. Kagan and RBG were plenty rigorous. But Breyer? All of his decisions read like hand waving to me. I agree Alito can be quite ideological, as the first draft of Dobbs showed. But Thomas is one of the clearest thinkers on the Court.

I think an overlooked aspect in all of this is how dramatically judicial philosophy has changed in the past few decades, across the board. Breyer, Kennedy, O’Conner, and Alito were from a generation that believed in the notion of judging as dispensing justice from on high. Younger folks like Kagan are uncomfortable with that even when though they seek to preserve liberal precedents built on that sort of judging.

The result of that is that younger conservatives find these older precedents incomprehensible, and younger liberals have a tough time defending them on the merits. Egbert v. Boule is a good example. I think the dissent probably had the better argument if we think of Bivens as anything more than an aberration that ought to be limited to its facts. But I struggled in reading the dissent to find any reason to treat Bivens as correctly decided. I remember being skeptical of Bivens when I first encountered it as a 1L, but to my recollection the opinion at least offset the tenuous reasoning with flowing judicial rhetoric. Sotomayor’s dissent, written in a modern analytical style, doesn’t even accomplish that.

The success of Neovim is great example of the advantage of open source. When the developer of a popular piece of software didn't want to implement features some of it's users wanted, those users were able to fork it and create a successful project that had those features, and eventually led to more innovation in the original project.

The divergence and incompatibility is unfortunate though, especially since some of it just seems petty. Made moreso, because it isn't possible to truly polyfill functionality from one in the other (native commands and functions are effectively in a separate namespace than user-defined ones).
Yet every day you get in the road with new teenager drivers (and drunk people, and idiots of all sorts). Doesn't that scare you?

Driving is terrifying.
X has trusted on non-trusted clients. The problem is that non-trusted clients were not allowed to use some important extensions such as Xrender. This could be changed though and largely solve this problem. Of course, apps of the same user are not sandboxed against each other on the system level on Unix, so this only helps if you also do this.
Glad you found it useful. It has become one of the things I install when I setup a machine.

Being able to use curl as a client as well is so powerful as well. Whenever you are using ssh on some vps you can still get cheatsheets for all your commands.

Fully agreed. I appreciate the stern yet information-laden correction. It's certainly much better than hearing specious claims based on conjecture/misinformation that only seems plausible to the uninformed.

Also, IMO it did not sound "over-the-top" or "aggressive" at all. Some people are just so absurdly oversensitive that a simply direct method of speaking (or in this case, writing) is taken as hostile.

> This sort of works in favor of "big" DEs like Gnome, but for the rest of the ecosystem it would mean death by fragmentation.

Yeah, it encourages more consolidation, e.g. many projects build on wlroots. Not really different from how it has been before (reuse X and this WM and this compositor and ...). The only difference is that instead of a giant X and the kitchen sink and 50 different small projects on top, you now have a small wayland + xdg-portals + one of gnome/kde/wlroots to build on.

> nontrivial applications don't really target Wayland, rather they...

That sounds like a good thing. Instead of hacking X inputs (e.g. xdotool or xcape, just grabbing any input and window) in a horribly insecure and nonstandard way we now get proper standardized components like the above mentioned portals. So no, they don't target "complete separate software stacks", rather the complete opposite.
I have frequently had to put the Logi dongle at the end of a USB extension cord to get it to work at all. So much so I don't bother to try without, anymore.

Apparently their RF protocol is incompatible with having a USB 3 transceiver too close by, and it cannot be fixed.

So, wondering if problems resolve with an extension. If so, it would be odd for Logi not to know about it. They were the source of the original suggestion.

With Chromium having decent Wayland support since a while now, I expect Electron apps will catch up eventually. A major DE deprecating Xwayland would give packagers of Electron apps a reason to get around to it.
I think that the labels should be clear what it is. (This can sometimes be done without avoiding certain words, but using such words alone may be inappropriate. However, using different words that more accurately describe such things (if you have better words) is probably going to be better.)
Or maybe its calling people out for intentionally not detecting this backdoor because of whom it benefits?
Proprietary is probably the wrong word.
Non-standardised perhaps, specific to the desktop implementation and by implementing the Wayland specification does not give you appropriate screensharing APIs in that namespace.

Because the APIs that are exposed by Gnome, KDE, and wl-roots are all different.
Flatpak has access to the `xdg-desktop-portal.*` namespace, but everyone has their own implementation so saying they use the standard namespace is misleading as it makes it sound like all the work is done.

Pipewire masks all that by implementing everyone's API and then exposing this via the Pipewire API, neatly solving the Wayland limitation and providing a standard.

The original statement was:

> Wayland is not preventing screen sharing or recoring. The API supports it pretty well.

No it does not. Pipewire does.

Youtube is a bad joke these days, and in particular the search algorithm is hilariously biased towards corporate/state propaganda, and if you're not searching, towards brain-dead Tik-Tok like content. China, amusingly enough, bans such content in its own country but is happy to promote it abroad. I see this as proof of my general conjecture that dumbing down the American population is something the global elites continue to pursue as a means of retaining their grasp on power.

As far as myself, I was shadow banned on Youtube well over a year ago, most likely for making cynical comments about the ratio of ads to content on several popular channels, and perhaps for making a habit of reporting to content creators when their content had been age-restricted for no apparent reason, and as a result I will never buy or purchase anything I see recommended to me in a Youtube ad, which I mostly avoid via ublock origin and youtube_dl, and I have nothing but contempt for the Alphabet/Google brand and all who ride with it.

Duty cycle- the ratio of time a component may be powered- is really quite common.

Cars can only rev the engine in the red zone for a limited duration. Lasers on CNC machines, welders, engine hoists, etc. all have specific capacities that you shouldn't exceed.

Expecting your CPU to run flat-out at 100% indefinitely without reprocussion seems strange to me. Heat is the great killer of electronics, and unless your rig is water cooled I don't know that I've used a laptop before with the thermal management to withstand extended full load- either it throttles down or it damages itself.
