The Fediverse has always been the domain of losers who couldn't hack it on Twitter and don't have the means or the ability to build their own websites. This has been the case when the only game in town was GNU Social, and it's still the case today. On most Mastodon servers you'll find people posting from their parents' basements in come-stained Che Guevara t-shirts. On Pleroma you find 4chan rejects and neo-Nazis who can't bring themselves to make accounts on Gab.

Don't waste your time on the Fediverse unless you want to hang out on Fosstodon or BSD.network.
You could try only accepting work from product managers. If someone wants something they need to convince a PM that it’s more important than whatever the PM currently has in development. Product is the “what” and engineering is the “how”

Certainly. There are many factors, some of which are: ocean currents, jet streams, and geography all make a huge difference.

As an example look for a latitude of a major European city and then compare it's climate with a city of the same latitude in Asia and North America.

Implementing simple auth is not that hard, with JWTs. But you need to use a service anyway for mail (confirm password, reset password etc.), so in the end it's not worth. These days I use Supabase auth and it works.

Some thoughts on the problem space we're exploring with Flowdex.
Is that not at odds with your original comment though.

"rust jobs" vs "rust jobs I personally want to do" doesn't really back up the statement that there are no rust jobs available.
I can’t find a single reputable scientific organization that argues in favor of ambitious climate engineering. The Union of Concerned Scientists, for example, is wholly against it. I recommend reading their explainer on it. “A lot of people and species will die” - you gloss over that callously like it’s all fine and dandy.
That's true but then let's take South Carolina instead of NY. Is there a lot more to it than to compare studies done in South Carolina to Buenos Aires if they are similar distances from the equator/poles?
With time travel debugging, data breakpoints become even more useful, because you can backtrack to the root cause once you've recorded the fault (rather than needing to run forwards and hope to replicate a corruption at the same location as last time).

The GHCi Debugger (https://downloads.haskell.org/~ghc/7.8.3/docs/html/users_gui...) mentioned in another comment (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=31911462) can time travel but I don't see anything like a data breakpoint.

I'm not quite sure what a meaningful functional equivalent would be given, semantically, no state is actually mutable in Haskell - but "where did this value come from?" still ought to be useful.

Indeed, though there are other places of the design space to look. For example in satellites, triple junction cells (generating power from additional parts of the spectrum) are worth the much higher cost as they weigh the same as standard cells, thus generating more power without increasing launch cost.
Why not? I can see a problem linking heat waves directly to mortality, but 0.4% doesn't sound too high?
Eh, I think this misses the point of why Jupyter Notebooks are useful, and who is using them.

I agree that in terms of literate programming as Knuth defined it, Notebooks are not great. There are tools to improve that story; I wrote https://github.com/agoose77/literary which at least lets you do a bit more "tangling and weaving" than you can out of the box. It doesn't let you define functions in arbitrary order, or implement fragments of a code block, but it does let you "boil down" a literate representation into something that is zero-cost at runtime and imports. There's also nbdev, although it's not my cup of tea.

The real point, though, is that most data-scientists aren't using (imo) notebooks to write and share libraries of code. Instead, they're using notebooks as semi-reproducible reports. I'm a physicist, and that's what I've been using Jupyter for. For me, Jupyter Notebooks are fantastic - the cell mechanism lends itself to rich-outputs that augment the narrative, and present the information in-line with the code that wrote it.

For me, the biggest gap here is writing _libraries_ that are leveraged in these notebooks. That's why I wrote Literary - to try and resolve some of the pain points that currently require you to use two tools (Jupyter Lab & e.g. PyCharm). I'm not saying it will work for everyone, or solve all of the problems, but for me it's enough to write my analysis as a package, so that's a limited success in my book.

What Happened to Terrapattern?
When reading about Terrapattern it seems that it was possible to try it back in 2016 (but only in specific areas), but now it isn't. What happened and why didn't it get a broader use?
Completely agree. If she had released this in a different medium it would be a wonderfully fun achievement (which I think is what most of the comments are responding to), but what she actually did is quite literally a detriment to humanity. It goes against basic, fundamental principles of what it means to be a good person.
Others also recognized this (Borland / WordPerfect aligning, and WordPerfect’s strategy was “we interact with other industry leading applications” (like 1-2-3) way before the days of Windows) but they failed to execute for other reasons, so it wasn’t like Microsoft figured out something else others didn’t. They used their first mover advantage and control of the platform to outmaneuver the competition.
-1 Auth (in the form of broken access control) is literally _the_ most common security problem according to the OWASP Top 10 [1]. And I think people thinking it isn't hard does significantly contribute to this questionable honor.

Heat stroke as a cause of death is a bit nebulous, in that it can cause parts of the body to fail that otherwise wouldn't. It's similarly fuzzy to dying of old age: If someone has a heart attack, and they're 95 years old, did they die of heart failure or die of old age? If someone has a heart attack, and it's 120°F outside, did they die of heart failure or die of heatstroke? Heat deaths are typically underreported because of this.

That's horrible. I've moved quite a few times for my spouse, and the last one was extremely painful. (I made her promise that it was the last time she asks to move for career reasons.)

Many of us are in two-career relationships. We have children and families. Casually expecting that we can move on the drop of a hat is short-sighted, and a good way to make an acquisition fail.

Considering how macOS/iOS will start synchronizing Webauthn tokens, I don't think S/MIME would be that difficult really. Email-validated certificates would be a nice start, but even those are expensive right now.

Identity-validated is indeed administratively harder, though in my opinion that part should be done by the state/country authorities - digital driver licenses, state ID's and national ID's could just have that as well. Some EU countries have done exactly that, but software support is lacking.

They are used quite a bit in computational genomics. Indeed, genomics is full of latent variable problems where one has a good model for the underlying phenomena but often not a lot of labeled data.

It’s probably neglectable anyway. There were a lot of attempts to build FB competing products in that timeframe, I remember running into some simila job posts which of course I ignored.

You still need to learn a lot of stuff. Problem is that it isn't portable. You have differences in architectures but most are quite similar if your goal is to make a program work instead of it being efficient for which you need deep knowledge about an architecture and its quirks. A few different mnemonic and register names is the far smaller problem.

But you also need to know about calling conventions of your operating system if you want to do any form of system call, which you very likely want to. Which registers supply arguments, which registers have to be saved, addresses of system functions which can change with OS or kernel version. You also need to learn what these function do. How would anyone know that writing a 48 into your accumulator and calling interrupt at address 80 opens a socket on Linux?

Thinking about this again makes assembly seem like a terrible, terrible idea...

To start with I would either recommend x86_64 for either Windows and Linux. I would prefer Linux here but I believe UEFI for example uses the Windows calling conventions, so taking a look at that might be practical. But these combinations usually offer the most learning helpers.

Usually you should only cause general protection faults at worst if you have something newer than a 386. But no guarantee...
Once again and people can downvote as much as they want nazism is the ideology of the nazi party of Germany. Its main characteristic are belief in the existence of a hierarchy of races dividing humanity, the superiority of the Arian race, deep antisemetism, the legitimacy of eugenics as a mean of society improvement, the legitimacy of implementing fascism and subvert the state in order to implement these racist policies, pangermanism and profound anti-Christianity.

As repugnant as it is, Russian ultranationalism is not nazism and Rogozin is not making a nazi salute. As much as you wish it to be, nazi is not a generic world.

Sounds like some sort of 4-way split is in order. A neutral party could oversee the recovery and inventory of artifacts/loot. Then another neutral party could divide it up among the players.
> It's possible that some new technology - AI-assisted robotic automation in particular - could have a similar societal impact by eliminating many jobs and concentrating wealth in the hands of the owners of the manufacturing lines, although this would seem to be a self-defeating outcome as fewer people would be able to purchase the output.

We are already seeing this outcome. About 2/3 (!) of Americans live paycheck to paycheck [1], 56% of Americans have less than 1000$ in liquid savings for emergencies [2]. In Europe, the situation is better because we have somewhat decent social safety nets, but not that much (e.g. in Germany, thanks to inflation, record numbers of people depend on charities like food banks [6] which are essentially funded by donations from large supermarket chains).

At the same time, a lot of the largest employers [3] in the US - especially Amazon, Target and Walmart - stand to benefit massively from automation gains... meaning that a lot of their staff will be made redundant as technology improves. Amazon is continuously investing in warehouse automation to replace human "pickers", and supermarket chains are investing in automation e.g. to spot spills [4] or monitor shelves for stuff out of stock [5].

Individual companies are not to blame for this per se: capitalism incentivizes a company to reduce costs wherever possible. The answer to the resulting shift of profits and wealth, however, must be in politics - and to be honest, if the wealth gap keeps rising with people like Bezos or Musk being worth hundreds of billions of dollars each while the 99% lose their homes and die because they can't afford basic medicine like insulin, if politics don't do anything, social unrest will only keep growing. Occupy Wall Street, the 2016 election of the 45th, French Yellow Vest protests - they all were, at their core, protests against this wealth disparity, against the effective neo-feudalism towards which we have devolved.

And to make the situation even worse than it already is: taxpayers worldwide will have to pay down the enormous bills from COVID relief debt and investments to combat climate change (e.g. constructing new power grids and renewable-energy plants), the followup costs of the Russian invasion in Ukraine and potentially a third world war - but there is no sign at all in any Western country that the rich will pay their fair share for all this crap.

Please qualify the difference in speed between JetBrains and VS Code. From my perspective, they are both “super slow” and “resource hogs”.
Yep. In Asturias you can be glad if you got three days in row without rain and temperatures above 20 degree. It rains a lot due to the Atlantic influence and in combination with the hight mountains? Nice when you don't like cold winters and don't like warm summers. You can do sports in short clothes in mid February but don't expect a long, warm and dry summer - it will not happen.

A lot people like it but I would miss actual summer.

> Also, they're _big_ : we have a kind of Weasel (Ermine) in Montana and I've seen then drag an adult rabbit carcas over long distances. Ferrets look to be around twice their size.

Most pet ferrets come from one inbred line produced by one monopolist who breeds ferrets for research (testing drugs and chemicals on animals) and for sale in pet stores. Those ferrets are pretty small (2-4 lbs), in part because they're virtually all pediatric neuters, and never go through puberty.

There are also very small numbers of ferrets available from small breeders in some states. They tend to be a bit larger, and additionally those breeders also sometimes sell hybrids (ferrets crossed with wild polecats), who are quite a bit bigger.

Anyway I think of domesticated ferrets as pretty small! And I guess they're much smaller than whatever wild/feral relatives they're sometimes crossed with in the hopes of improving health or genetic diversity.
Show HN: ColorTiles Browser Game
Hello HN!

Here is a little game I made, colorful tiles must be placed next to other tiles and match in symbol or color.
This game is inspired by Passage 3 and similar games like Qwirkle, Rummy or Dominoes.
There exist some browser-based versions here and there, but I wasn't completely satisfied with any of them, so I made my own.

This is optimized for a broad range of screen sizes and auto-rotates the playing field for narrow (portrait) viewports.
As I've discovered with my own parents, folks who enjoy playing Solitaire, Hearts and similar games might enjoy this as well, so gladly spread the word.

Have fun and feedback is appreciated! :)
Shakespeare's company was literally called "The Kings Men" because they had the patronage of the king.
This is an incredibly disengenious take.

Old people (or anyone) being scammed out of their life savings is bad. Full Stop.

What is worse is some random person in line being able to speak up and have someone's bank account effectively frozen. Yes, this story is about Walmart but the real issue is banks here, in my personal direct experience.

This topic is near and dear to me as I have personally seen how the banks do not consider money in your account to be your money - it is their money you can use in a prescribed manner. Step even a little off that reservation and you will find how much power others have over what you thought was your money. It can take months and years to resolve, and you generally have very little to no legal recourse.

Random dude in a line, or a random $18/hr bank/walmart cashier is not an appropriate place to put your fraud detection and denial systems in place. Advising a transaction is fraudulent is A-OK in my book. Having customers sign release forms - cool. Actually denying funds? This is something I, and others, find absolutely morally and ethically repugnant. Your money is yours to do with what you wish, including lighting it on fire. It is not your place to tell me I cannot do that.

Up until the point I do something illegal with my money, no one should have a single iota of say in how I spend, move, or deploy it.

It doesn't matter, even choosing a picture is a creative act that imparts copyright. Maybe if you hook up GPT-3 to generate prompts for DALL-E and then filter the images with another automated method, then the work is completely AI generated and deserves no copyright.

As for the authors of the training data, they still enjoy the copyrights over the works they created. Images generated by DALL-E only copy the style, something humans are also allowed to do. Anyway, you can't put the toothpaste back in the tube, now we have to live with image and text models. Next year we'll be shocked at video models that can play games, accomplish meaningful office work and also generate long videos.
Over the years I've learned to be suspicious of simple solutions to difficult problems and those who assert such solutions. When trying to convey that healthy skepticism to others I tend to use the phrase "beware those who express the certainty that can only be born out of ignorance or a swindle."

The analogy I use to explain how the acquisition of knowledge leads to humility is akin to climbing. You start in a ditch and can only see a single mountain that you must ascend to be knowledgeable. Once you reach the peak of that mountain you are greeted with an entire new range of mountains that would remain hidden from you without the benefit of your newfound perspective. You may also safely assume that beyond each of those mountains lies yet another set of partially or completely obscured mountain ranges.
