How are cash and art better for money laundering than Bitcoin?
Or maybe blame the California Bar for partnering with such amateur vendors when they had millions of competent technology companies to pick from?
Of course there's EE university courses, but generally, experimentation. You can get really far in electronics with learning by doing.

If you don't know where to start, ham radio is one traditional gateway.

Whether or not you get the license is secondary (I think most interested people should get it; especially in the US where the lowest license class is ridiculously easy - if you know basic electronics already and cram today with https://hamstudy.org/, you could probably have a Technician class license by end of tomorrow - and then you can legally build your own transmitters or buy some cheap radios and transmit with those. Transmitting is more fun than only receiving.).

The real value is all the structure around it (e.g. 1. there are books that start from zero electronics knowledge and end at several types of complete transmitters/receivers. The ARRL publishes some; 2. the license is a tangible learning milestone to work towards; 3. all basic transmitters/receivers have been done thousands of times so you can find something online and copy it to learn from it. The ham community also has many DIY kits you can just buy and build and experiment with.)

Eventually you'll find that you have enough background to use more "professional" resources (e.g. data sheets, real academic textbooks / professional books, etc.) (at least if you have some math background from another field, e.g. CS), build more complicated things etc.
There is also the more benign: 3) a group of employees whose job it is to think up and produce these videos thought it should be made.
Yes you did, and of course you have a deep understanding. However, nobody knows everything about something, even if he studies that something for a lifetime.

I really don't like this guys style of writing. It seems like the bones of the article are interesting, but then they slap like three layers of meme talk, irony and sarcasm, and it just ruins the read for me. It reminds me of TARS humor setting. It doesn't need to be zero, but its currently at like 98, can we turn it down some?

I’ve just graduated in Computer Science and I’m trying this pivot as well, but without the b-school (yet). ~2 years of tech work experience during my degree and I realised tech just doesn’t work for me right now. Starting in a much more generalist business role soon where it’s really helpful to have tech knowledge. Glad to know it’s worked out for you :)
How do you know there are less vulnerabilities in a smaller package than there are in a better adopted one(usu bigger)? And isn’t it more likely that big packages (they got big I feel due to expanding user-base requirements) get the patch sooner?

The US promised Ukraine membership in 2008, knowing full well what would happen if that occurred. It's not a subject often broached today, but the gears of war turn for a long time.

However, recently the EU has made its intentions clear to annex Ukraine. This would immediately pull several NATO countries into a war situation with Russia which would mean the US would be as well.

So even if it's not NATO directly, it will be indirectly.

Like, if Ukraine is in the EU, and now Germany's at war with Russia, and Russia declares war on Germany, we'll be stuck in that too.

EDIT: yeah yeah yeah... the EU is not a military union. People who honestly believe that should just keep telling themselves that war is never waged for trade and money. Maybe if they say it enough times it'll be true.
How are cameras supposed to prevent school shootings? The best they can do is let you watch cops do nothing as we could see in Texas. Prevention is much more important and much cheaper but that's not done either.

And I don't know why I'd spend money in anticipation of a potential crime in front of my home, donating data to Amazon in the meantime. The police is already tracking phones and using other methods no single camera can match.
I turned my old desktop into a NAS drive with 3 8tb drives shucked from a discount bin at Best Buy a few years ago. Total cost (out the door) was about $400 for the drives and the time to set it all up, and it has way more storage and convenience than I think I can use in a long time.
> I like a lot of things about Clickhouse but one thing I'm afraid of is what happens when your data won't fit on a single machine.

ClickHouse sharding and replication is not that hard to master--it's simple and the parts are visible. If you don't want the headache of distributed system management, run it in Kubernetes or a managed service. ClickHouse-as-a-service is widely available from multiple vendors.

ClickHouse is also fast and cost-efficient at scale. It's a very good fit for multi-tenant SaaS analytics where you need fixed latency on responses to users.

Many are taken with the idea that blockchain can be trusted in a world without trust. Governments can't mutate it. No one owns it. My sense is that this inspires an almost religious faith in some people. Google's ability to find just what I was looking for inspired a similar sense of wonder in me.

Unfortunately, SEO scam artists began to game Google and now they are corrupting the blockchain idea, but I don't think we should underestimate the power of people who keep the faith over the long haul to eventually make something legitimate out of it
Upon review of Cold War history and the state of our media, I'd be inclined to select conclusion #2 at the moment.
I'm kinda the opposite. I don't like to write C#.

Unreal Engine's build system is also based on C# as I remember.
According to https://perf.rust-lang.org/dashboard.html compile times only have improved by like 5-10% since last year.
Apple and NeXT is the only counterexample I can immediately think of.
Not sure if modern is the right word here; I guess graphing calculators from the 90s would also not be allowed. Unless you mean something different?
> Don't use the `async` ecosystem.

I want to make it /very/ clear that async isn't to blame at all for the pathological build times described here. It's a bug about traits and lifetimes, both very core concepts of Rust that you deal with even if you stay away from async code.

async rust will certainly be more ergonomic once some more improvements land (hopefully later this year), but I don't feel like it deserves all the sighs it's been publicly getting these past few months. (And I /love/ to complain. I've written pieces named "Surviving Rust async interface", "Getting in and out of trouble with Rust futures", "Pin and suffering", etc.)

> Prefer dynamic dispatch to monomorphization (i.e., use fewer generics).

Unless you hit a pathological case as shown in the article, it tends to not be _that_ bad, especially if you enable `-Z share-generics=y` (unstable still, yet enabled by default for debug builds if I remember correctly).

Overall still solid advice - although "use fewer generics" sometimes turns out to be "just turn a big generic type into `Box<dyn Trait>`" (it's not _just_ boxing, that would be `Box<T>`). That's what axum[1] does with all services, and it's never had the compile times issues warp[2] had, for example.

> Don't use proc macros (i.e., don't depend on the `syn` crate, even transitively).

Good news there, I hear there's some progress on the proc-macro bridge (which improves macro expansion performance) AND "wasm proc-macros". I hope this piece of advice will be completely irrelevant in a year (but for now, it's spot-on. using pin-project-lite instead of pin-project is worth it, for example).

> “Publicly visible spot on my property” is a meaningless phrase

Indeed, your property or not, it's still a "publicly visible spot", and the creep is legally (in the US at least) allowed to be creepy in this way over your objections

> I can, and absolutely will, object to someone recording my yard.

The creep can, and absolutely will, object to your objections, and be allowed to continue (in the US at least).

Privacy requires constant vigilance, in terms of electing lawmakers.
The job title implies a lie and is a marketing ploy that will throw founder responsibilities and risk on a senior developer role.

Well I think there's different aspects to IQ.

Retention is one as well as problem solving.

I think both play an important part in a lot of situations.
Youth unemployment for higher ed has been issue for years, reality is PRC scale is still generating more talent than it can absorb. QoL stagnanting like west is questionable, vast majority of PRC is still poor enough that modest income redistribution can push up their QoL for forseeable future. For example spending 90B / 10% of PRC's 900B growth from last year can double income of the 600M poor on 1000rmb per month. Realistically that will be titrated over years via various transfer programs so QoL for masses will keep ticking up. Top % of PRC human capita drives a lot of growth and education system is pumping out excess even after brain drain. The income disparity (thanks Deng) is so large enough that "common prosperity" drives should more or less maintain social stability vs west where new gens' have meaningfully degradeds QoL relative to western boomers. Meanwhile PRC also has highest savings rate in the world, parents in better position to care for themselves. Nor are there same expectation for social services from country that is poor before rich vs rich before old, i.e. Japan actually has to funnel massive state resources to take care of elderly because that's expected. Not to imply PRC will experience smooth sailing or reach western QoL standards, but income disparity and expections = PRC is structured to have sufficient talent and resources to (likely) handle the transition without stagnation. It's still going to be rough, and PRC will still be pressure cooker society, but IMO chances becoming stuck like JP is low. That's without going into how military/strategic posture benefits shedding 100s of millions of people have on import dependency while huge industrial base where 2% military spending allows effective aquisition pipeline. Bluntly, PLA military is currently massively modernizing on a budget but that's still enough to to keep accruing more favourable force balance over time since it uses comparably little resources (both funding and human capita) that it's one sector that won't stagnate. Room to even future increase in military budget is not out of the question.
I find this viewpoint very strange. Why are you jumping to the idea that you're being treated as suspicious, and being judged, and being avoided as a result of that judgement?

What if people were just...doing something else? At work? At the movies? Driving? Pooping?

Do you feel judged when you walk up to doors with peepholes?
I agree. A simply b2b sass startup is hard enough to make work. This is probably 10x as hard to pull off. I still think it's great he and others are trying.
How about option 4: we unfortunately live in a world with nuclear weapons which are controlled by humans and humans are not always predictable . Its good practice to communicate the emergency plan well in advance of needing it.
It's the kind of humor that usually not even the author finds funny. They just learned that this is how "funny" people talk.
> The US promised Ukraine membership in 2008

No, Ukraine submitted a Membership Action Plan in 2008. The US can't promise NATO membership, nor is a MAP a promise of completing the process. Later that year, the Dutch head of NATO at the time indicated the MAP wouldn't go forwards.

> However, recently the EU has made its intentions clear to annex Ukraine.

This is really silly framing. The EU doesn't annex countries. Annexations are "the forcible acquisition of one state's territory by another state, usually following military occupation of the territory". Someone's doing that right now, but it's not the US, NATO, EU, or Ukraine.
Actually I'm heartened to see people defending religion on HN. Tithing to a church you truly belong to is probably a better use of your money, even purely by personal benefit, than tithing Wall Street. I hope that I've introduced some of those ideas in the text by making a negative comparison to the church. But yes; it was sloppy and possibly interpreted as disparaging of religious practice itself, so for that I apologize.

Meta: this is what I like about Hacker News. I get challenged to maintain disciplined thinking, often at the boundaries of the argument where I casually drift.

I use these examples in layers (I have a networking background so my mind more or less thinks in OSI layers).

For actual products bitcoin (and blockchains like Ethereum with EVM) are the fundamental enabling layer. I like to think of them somewhat akin to TCP/IP or even HTTP. Where are the higher layer applications and use cases built on blockchain with instant and obvious utility to the average person walking down the street? This is what I was getting at with the decade plus of development and billions of dollars of investment.

The internet was a fundamental threat to all kinds of institutions - governments with censorship, big media (including state run), and even financial institutions. The internet provided instant untold value for democracy and free speech. Just widespread and instantly available encryption itself was a HUGE problem and threat to governments, law enforcement, militaries, intelligence agencies, etc. Remember the Clipper Chip "debate" and 40 bit encryption export controls? I do.

Yet the obvious value and utility was so clear even governments like China (with the Great Firewall) knew it was of such incredible value to the economy and clamored for by the citizenry they figured out a way to make it work within their system of government. Inside of a decade billions of people were using the internet to further democracy, free speech, and the dissemination of information.
While not DSP chips, analog synths will typically also include microcontrollers, for scanning a keyboard or front panel controls, receiving MIDI messages, and generating control voltages.
What if they are right? If it's 12-18 months of 8-9% inflation, it's probably fair to call it transitory. We just had 12 months of inflation during a wicked supply chain storm after a pandemic, and a war which has further squeezed energy prices.

Here is a chart from bls:

https://www.bls.gov/charts/consumer-price-index/consumer-pri...

Notice when it last went above 5%? When oil hit 140+ back in 2008. Energy prices ripple through a lot of categories. If energy tanks, and it always has, we might fly back to 0% inflation in a hurry.

Powell might not have a crystal ball, but he's no dummy.
No need to use two restaurants. Just order 1000 pizzas to your own address. When the delivery person shows up, hand one pizza back and forth between you 1000 times (or until the delivery person gets bored and leaves).

Question - at what point does "abuse of promotional pricing" get classified as fraud?
I saw a few ads towards the beginning of the pandemic for Dominoes doing delivery from local non-Dominoes restaurants... what happened with that? Did it not work out or are they still doing it?

The law allows recording if the conversation is not private, that is, there is no reasonable expectation of privacy as defined above. Also, there is no violation unless the recording is “surreptitious,” defined as “obtained or made by stealth or deception, or executed through secrecy or concealment.”

As if there’s going to be a world left living in after a nuclear war ends. In the US, the most frightening aspect of life in a nuclear war would be the rapid regression to tribalism and infighting rather than the exposure to radiation, though with the winds and weather patterns, that would make it moot for the vast majority anyway.

There will be all out panic and irrational behavior will predominate. Things will break with nobody to fix them. Services we take for granted will suddenly trap us or kill us indirectly. No communication will be easy or quick.

Moreover, the long term effects on the environment from massive nuclear detonations and debris lingering in the atmosphere would make the country live in something out of a Cormac McCarthy novel. Abandon all hope even if you are rich enough to have a bunker; life just simply won’t be worth living once there’s a first strike.

What sort of a reaction do they want?

Mostly, this makes me glad I use reddit as little as I do.
Yeah, but Google's vision + lidar tech also doesn't seem any better at solving it either. They have been working on this problem the longest and they aren't even confident enough to produce a product with it. Google is probably the leader in AI and AI research. They are also the leader in data and mapping. They have billions of cash to play with. Yet it seem like they haven't gotten any closer at solving this problem as well.

They are just going about it better but not trying to selling it.

Any reason why everyone seems to be stuck on this problem?

Async seems to be the first big "footgun" of Rust. It's widespread enough that you can't really avoid interacting with it, yet it's bad enough that it makes people resent the language.
Do you get scratch resistant frames, too?

The scratches on the glass do not have to be visible. The surface just gets a tiny bit matte, reducing the contrast and also making cleaning a bit bigger problem.

As to the frames, except for the unavoidable wear and tear in places where it can't be avoided, my current main daily driver Tom Ford acetate glasses look as shiny as on the day I got them, 3 years ago.

My friend has similar frames and they look matte, after less than a year.
Benchmarks can be quite difficult to interpret when the test parameters vary between tests. However, I think the point in providing the open-source ClickBench benchmark [https://github.com/ClickHouse/ClickBench] is exactly to allow users to do their own research in providing a standardized client and workload across any SQL-based DBMS. Standardized benchmarking is an important technique, for comparing across different applications, or also for comparing the same application across different environments (compute, storage, cloud vs. self-managed, etc.). SPEC [https://www.spec.org] used to do a great job in developing and releasing standardized benchmarks, although their activity has waned of late

That isn't what's being discussed here, but it's still a type of intimidation. Being law abiding really doesn't matter because pointing a camera at someone's property is a type of intimidation and harassment.

But to answer your question:
>Would you label a gate or a lock as "intimidating" as well?

No I wouldn't, but that isn't to say I couldn't imagine a scenario where it could be used that way. For example, say you move to a new place and you're different from the locals. You notice your neighbor watching you with suspicion when you come home from work everyday and they make a show of watching you while putting a big padlock on their garage door or something. There's nothing illegal or even really wrong about doing that. It's just kind of crappy and not very neighborly. The behavior would be weird and creepy.
> why should content creators have to go through a centralized website like Patreon in order to get value from their consumers, giving Patreon a cut in the process? sure it's (for now) more straightforward for end-users…

You answered your own question, but there's also no reason to use a "centralized website" (i.e. a 3rd-party service) if it doesn't add value. You just handle the subs yourself and provide a unique feed URL in return.
