The value-add of these services is pretty substantial, though. Free hosting alone is pretty big, since even setting up two servers to host your videos (one EU, one US) won't be as good as Google's global peering and edge storage servers[0]. And the web in terms of discoverability is dead - even if everyone used RSS readers and creators hosted their own videos, how do they find new viewers that want to watch their content without resorting to traditional advertising, or hoping word-of-mouth (online forums, IRL, or otherwise) works?

There are numerous holistic and historical factors that throw more people into the jaws of the unforgiving US criminal justice system:

1. School-to-prison pipeline [i]

2. For-profit prisons

3. Mandatory minimums

4. Three-strikes laws

5. Over-policing minority and poor areas

6. Racial profiling [ii]

7. Lack of adequate universal mental healthcare

8. The War on Drugs

9. Lack of opportunities + crimes of desperation and despair

10. Poverty leads to inadequate defense and conviction or pleading out to something they didn't do because overworked public defenders are a cruel joke

For what it’s worth, I was job searching recently and employers were predominantly interested in only a handful of skills I have on the frontend:

- React

- TypeScript

- GraphQL/State management

Nothing else was ever mentioned or investigated more closely.

I think most people would do well for themselves to dig deep on these. Get great at React, understand TypeScript deeply, understand data fetching and state management — you can very likely get great jobs just focused on these technologies.

You could chase every shiny new thing but you probably aren’t all that much more likely to get a job or get paid more at the moment.
Haha thanks! Would be a nice moment to mention our mascot, if we had one. Go Blackbucks?
Well, the history is not clear. All we know is that post-first surgery, an abdominal mass develops which becomes painful over time. I assume the “hernia expert”, which is just another name for a general surgeon, followed a simple algorithm: Protruding painful abdominal mass -> Hernia? Incarcerated? With possible increasing risk of vascular compromise to bowels > CT Scan. Go from there. Period.
That's a very neat idea! Will look at a few more standards for exporting notes.
I do a type of meditation, which I guess could be considered mindfulness meditation - based on how broad that term is.

The difference of ours compared to a lot of other types of meditation in the West is that when you are meditating, you do not try to think about stuff, you instead try to clear your thoughts and have your mind be silent. Unlike say sleeping, you are fully aware of what is going on around you - it's not a trance. That's basically the gist of it: clear your mind of thoughts.

Ignoring the spiritual parts, I'd imagine the way it is beneficial is that by reducing your cognitive load thinking about that presentation you need to give tomorrow and how everyone will react, it allows your body to focus on more mundane health-keeping tasks while in this meditative state. People in our group have reported various annecdotal health benefits, however there was also a peer reviewed study in Australia where our methods were used to help children with ADHD:

https://www.abc.net.au/science/articles/2007/11/30/2106111.h...

The spiritual parts supposedly help you to get into that state easier, but as there isn't any scientific evidence of that I'll leave you to make your own decision.

Another benefit of the methods I follow is that they are always free - you can do then at home and do not need any special equipment. Anyone charging you to learn how to meditate is probably just scamming you.

> Sennheiser HD-650's (at home) or IE8i's (when exercising).

I prefer the 900N outside, and the 1000XM inside.

To exercise with some music, I'm waiting for good neckband headphones with active audio cancellation: ideally something like the Anker Soundcore Life U2 - same form factor and USB-C plug, but with LDAC, AptX HD and a quality at least on par with the Shure AONIC.

Yes I'm super picky :)

> Hearing the sound-stage and subtle do-dads buried by lesser set-ups is a pet-peeve of mine.

Oh so much this!! I'm hearing instruments that I hadn't noticed before! The first week, I thought it was in my head, because some of the tracks I've been listening to for years started sounding different!!

But no, the Sony is that good. Again, it's worth every dollar.

> I'm spoiled

Now I'm spoiled too :) I just can't forget how much better it made my favorite tracks!

TBH, the Sony has been my best purchase of these last few years: it has even rekindled my interest in music.

Right now I'm exploring "pop urbaine", a very interesting genre that I didn't even know existed.

My favorite tracks are inbetween EDM and Raeggeton, the best example being "On fleek" by Eva - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k_eEW2Ioe-o (starts at 0:30)

I would never have expected I'd take a liking to french music, but here I'm! Thank you Sony!!

> A very important, perhaps dominant, factor in all of this is how the music was ripped/encoded.

This too!

I only use FLAC ripped from known-good sources like DDD audio CDs, but after reading a few things like https://sound.stackexchange.com/questions/51326/spotting-a-f... and https://musicfans.stackexchange.com/questions/12545/original... I've been thinking about developing a "scoring" app that would basically do a spectrogram and look for suspicious banding to rate my CDs on a 0-10 scale.

> For the X5, having 200 CDs ripped via WMA9 locks me in, until I can find a week or two to re-rip to a more modern lossless format.

I recently re-ripped using a slot-in Apple Superdrive with Windows Media Player Classic running on Windows 11 set to auto-rip into FLAC.

I just worked as usual and every now and then swapped the CDs from 2 huge piles on the side of my desk.

> I'm spoiled, and feel sorry for the people today that think MP3-120 is "good enough".

Same lol
Full agree. Torx is the best. T25 and larger bits are essentially indestructible.
The thing I'd like to understand that the paper didn't touch on: how do we know the example TCP RFC English Language description isn't logically flawed?

If the F* code adheres to the RFC, does the verification prove that the F* matches the 3D of the RFC, or does it find errors in the RFC itself?

On a side note, rather than debating re-writing the Linux kernel in Rust so that it is memory safe(er), why not start working on a formally hardend kernel code? Or does this only apply to logical propositions, e.g. the RFC?
> But I'd rather not try to predict how a business will want to use it's data in the future

Sure, then the backend can expose a gRPC / protobuf interface instead. Mobile apps can readily deserialize this and it will be more performant, both in network bandwidth and data parsing, too, especially with first-party to first-party SDKs. It's strongly typed and serves as a better data contract language than both HTML and JSON. JSON is loosey goosey because of JavaScript.

Then the frontend server now plays the role of aggregating data from gRPC backends and converting it to HTML.

The gravitation to JSON is a case of web developer familiarity.
> I'm told really effective companies like Netflix are quite skilled at leveraging technology to scale out their platforms with very agile (read small) teams

Netflix has over 1000 engineers, maybe close to 1500? Uber has ~3,000.

If we assume these companies are handling similar amount of work, Netflix has only managed to do 2-3x better in terms of headcount to work ratio. (talking to friends at these companies, I think this paints a rosier picture of Netflix than is reasonable).

As another commenter pointed out, there's also a real step change when you go global. The requirements in terms of governmental compliance and engineering effort to outcompete local software shoots up headcount significantly. With a global audience you generally need to be providing an excellent experience in more ways as local values and tastes can vary more significantly than you expect.

From what I see, there are camps of people doing their thing for long. And they appear on HN front page when there is a big milestone or just because (see latest thread on vite)

So for casual onlooker, things are changing fast as “most popular” moves from one camp to another. While in reality, the camps themselves are quite stable, and progressing forward in a predictable fashion.

Sure there is a churn in bleeding edge camp(react), but that is because it is on bleeding edge, other camps do not have that churn, and real world does not have that level of churn

“Anemia” isn’t really a diagnosis.

Your mother had a microcytic anemia (a broad class based on lab results), of which there are several types including iron deficiency anemia.

Next, there are multiple causes of iron deficiency anemia of which celiac disease is one of them.

You would never diagnose a patient with “anemia” and stop there. Further work up for the etiology is mandatory and endoscopy is commonly performed.

There is no such thing in modern medicine as “just treating anemia” unless you know the cause and the only treatment is transfusions.

Impossible to answer. Social cues are tough. It all depends on how it was said and how it was meant - could be a totally innocuous comment or something to be concerned about.

As long as you have good product requirements, creation is actually very simple. You have freedom to choose the technology and the tools.

However, The moment that you discover that your AWS bill exceeds your engineering budget, you will have a different view of maintenance. People will now start calling it resilience, scale, optimization, etc. And then one day, the db will need to be partitioned (almost always, if the product is successful) and then the people who created the mess [almost always using a nosql database as it was available ]will run for the exits. You (or the poor unthanked ‘maintenance’ engineer ) will start learning about why distributed systems are hard to maintain.

All aircraft age out.

Anyplace where LH2 aircraft are in use, kerosene craft will be found to be completely unable to compete.

Thus, starting on key routes, kerosene craft will be driven off to less profitable routes. Demand for LH2 craft will be driven by need to stay in the market at all. The earlier adopters will profit most, initially pocketing the huge difference between current prices and their own cost, and later by wholly owning the most profitable routes.

They:

Didn't hold grudges regarding resolving disagreements with compromises and solutions.

Worked together in things as simple as cleaning up the dishes (~6 minutes usually).

Spent a great deal of time together.

Never forgot love meant showing respect, kindness, and tenderness towards each other.

In my opinion, a keeper is found by gradually intuiting answers to the extreme fundamental questions in life:

1. Is the vibe approaching effortless, real, natural, and safe? This alone isn't enough but it's a good sign.

2. Do they tick most of the ideal adjectives of a sense of humor, honest, reliable, respectable, fascinating, wise, and not a liability?

3. Who would you (and they) prefer to be stuck on a proverbial deserted island with them?

3. Would you'd trust them implicitly with decisions about your life and everything else if you were away or incapacitated?

4. Have you seen their reactions to not getting their way, under pressure, and with people not in positions of power?

5. Would you die and/or kill (if absolutely essential) for them, and vice-versa again?

6. Are both of you better together than apart overall?

That's my 2c. My bill is in the mail. :)
Yes exactly, perhaps I was unclear.

In my description, it is conceivable that due to chronicity the field was contaminated at the time of second OR and/or a lysis of adhesions resulted in a contaminated field.

If the surgeon implanted mesh in a contaminated field this would be seeded and inevitably get infected.

This is not uncommon and why surgeons often don’t implant mesh in complex LOA or possibly dirty fields.

I’m not saying this is what happened, but delayed diagnosis of a complicated hernia can increase the risk of complications from repair.

Note making connected to PDFs is abysmal. As far as I know, we're one of the better tools out there. Updating PDFs is a challenge for sure. Constantly updating content is probably better suited for a wiki/notion page though. I'm curious - what kind of PDFs are you dealing with?

Ask HN: Serious tips for US citizen who wants to work in Japan (or as cofounder)
Ever since my first visit to Japan I’ve been in love with the country and it’s people. I’m a brown guy, US citizen. My Japanese is not that good but if I can get a tutor I’m sure I can be proficient enough to work.

Beyond that I’m someone who respects and assimilates into my host country. I’m also good at full stack development and I’m looking at either engineering manager or co founder level roles.

How can someone like me find work in Japan? I don’t have any Japanese friends, and I don’t really know any cliche culture things like anime. I’m more into meditation and enjoying nature and what not and my time spent in nature and amongst the mountains there was the best I’ve ever felt.

Thanks!
This is a super weird attitude to me (a man).

> I’m old and female ?!! That’s horrible.

All that matters, for this discussion, is the age of forming relationships according to statics. Females are ready to settle down around 22-28. From about 28-32 females that have not already had children and are not in a long term relationship are confronted by an internal biological clock that is running out. Males are ready to settle down around 26-32. That male clock is governed by the rapid decrease of sex hormone driving high risk behavior. That male window happens to overlap with that later female clock most deliberately driving a reproductive motive. This is not a coincidence. It is evolution that drives mating behavior in a very real survival sense.

In that context 41 is very old. I don't feel old either, look about 7-8 years younger than I really am, and I am older than you. I can still push my pulse above 200 bps during exercise and still do many things people much younger than me cannot. Even still, I am still human and my biological clock continues moving forward at the regular rate just like everybody else.

I've seen issues before, where Jenkins agents "go bad" (Gradle cache corruption, Docker filesystem corruption, etc) – pressing the "re-run" button in the UI usually runs the job again on the same Jenkins agent, and good chance it fails again in the exact same way. What I've discovered, is if I restart the job twice, in quick succession, the first re-run will go to the same agent (and will likely fail with the same problem), the second to a different one (hopefully one without that issue). Easiest way to restart it twice, is `git commit --allow-empty -m rerun && git push`, wait until the job starts, then repeat. Maybe there is some way to do the same thing in the UI, but pushing a couple of empty commits is quick and I know it works.
