Optane was very cool, but at the same time it quickly turned into a very niche product. If I'm not mistaken, once of the primary purposes was to accelerate spinning disk drives. However, I really don't think that's needed nowadays as hard drives aren't really that horrible now and SSDs are getting cheaper and cheaper every year.

I think if Intel really focused on what they were trying to do, I really do think they would have had success in the data center for accelerating data center drives.
Sounds like Google given the reference to Mountain View.

I don't think you're understanding the problem.

Two days of training is incredibly short given the complexity.

Killing yourself at your own hand is well-understood culturally, clinically, and legally. The mechanisms of insulin-induced trauma have been well understood since insulin shock therapy:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Insulin_shock_therapy

and Klaus von Bulow:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sunny_von_B%C3%BClow

Being killed by a machine, on the other hand, directly or indirectly may be understood culturally from the long list of science fiction films featuring killer robots, but less so clinically and legally, because we don't have agreement or consensus on accidental death and the role of technology in rising risks in a complex systems environment.

We need to take the implications of the design of medical device autonomy seriously as we approach these problems with those solutions, since they often fail a definition of complete autonomy, but may in fact be considered close enough to pass the same standard of risk and care as we'd give to autonomous robots in industrial settings or self-driving cars.

Just because the administration of drugs doesn't seem particularly robotic, when that administration is beyond a certain percentage of machine control, I'd argue that it is behaving autonomously even though the control mechanisms fall short of machine learning.

It's as if we took Therac 25 and strapped it to a patient's belt with the oncology planning encoded in the radiation device. It may seem as if the complexity is less, but we don't have consensus on that either:

I think there is also a big question of what sort of spending habits these people have acquired. Their peers are making lot of money. And I doubt everyone is extremely frugal. Margin Call I think gave pretty good example how some in other firms might be spending their income.

>none seem to handle multiple calendars well. I have a personal calendar, a work calendar, and a side project calendar, I want them all to be independent, have tasks blocked out on them, etc, but still be aware of each other. So for example, I want to schedule a doctor’s appointment on my personal and have my other calendars mirror that time block, but scrub the details/make it generic. Super specific idea obviously, but if I don’t have it I have so much manual overhead aligning everything that I just give up and do it by hand.

YES, THIS! Managing personal, family, and work calendars is a nightmare. So much double handling.
Greenscope | Lead Software Engineer | Full-time | Hybrid On-site (Paris, France) + Partial Remote

Greenscope is building a unified ESG tool for financial institutions and corporations to comply with new European regulations.

We are four founders and we’ve been working since the beginning of the year but we are getting traction and the team is now rapidly growing.
We are looking for good developers (front or full stack, NextJS & React), not necessarily senior but able to think fast, to ship, ready to take responsibility in our rapidly moving structure and make a dent in the fight against greenwashing :)

FWIW this article, like The Register articles of olde, did bring this point up.

Multics had this concept back 60 years ago; like many useful Multics ideas (cough security) it was jettisoned in Unix. Most interestingly, Organick’s book describes a hierarchy of fast to slow, with the slowest being tape backup :-).

More recently HP’s “The Machine” was designed this way — the article touches on this but if you don’t know what they are talking about that HP paragraph looks like it was accidentally jammed in.

With the increased use of databases and key stores plus the dominance of mobile platforms, this single store model will probably be back.
Like the sibling comment: I also have a raspberry pi and 3.5" USB external drive with it's own power supply.

I tried a 5TB 2.5" SMR HDD powering it off the raspberry pi for a while and it worked for maybe a year and a half. Then all of a sudden starting the Sync Process for Resilio sync would cause the drive to drop out. So I upgraded to the 8TB 3.5.

Resilio sync may meet or requirements but not exactly. Resilio syncs the folders between two computers, but you don't have to sync everything. Things that don't get synced get placeholders. So it's the best of both worlds. Fast for what you use because it's local, takes zero space for what you don't. Similar to Google Drives new streaming feature, but manual and not transparent. Also for the encryption you will want the "untrusted folder setup".

Syncthing has a similar product, haven't played around with it though.

Like the other sibling comment Tailscale is great so you don't have to fiddle with your friends router. But be careful tailscale will need to occasionally be reauthenticated.

I do not recommend SMR drives for anything other than archiving. Cheap but very slow. I think it took a week to back up my 500GB MacBook.
This argument has been going since the Pi came out. I'd agree most people shouldn't. They should just get a NUC and save themselves the headaches. If you know what you're getting into, though, and build to it's lack of strength you can go pretty far. Current inflated prices are a hard no from me.

Minecraft servers are likely the heaviest of the ~15 services I run at home. You chose a service that I wouldn't have expected to work.

My Pi 4 4GB runs an MPD server that outputs to a HiFiBerry DAC, Zabbix and Grafana. It's done so smoothly for about a year now.

At one time it acceptably ran Nextcloud, Gitea, Matrix Synapse, Vaultwarden and a file server in systemd containers.

At another time, it replaced an old AMD e350 machine I was using for backups - the Pi 4 was faster than that old desktop. The bottleneck was the CPU load when transferring data over SSH.

Free? You must have missed the part of the era where big tech purchased geocities for >$3B and killed it over the objections of users & deleted it from the Internet save for efforts of some like the Internet Archive (I hope you donate to them).

Also must have missed the part about giving the IP to a community to govern.

You did manage to confirm the unusual disdain of all things decentralized in web3.

I essentially gave up on meal planning and gave in to a meal schedule. Monday is burger night, Tuesday is taco bowls. Wednesday is something Italianish, Thursday is chicken crust pizza, Friday is free choice. It’s specific enough to know what sort of things I need for each night but vague enough that I can improvise a bit with each meal to give some variation.
If you don't use the app the way it's intended, you won't get the best experience. And since most people are actually aware of how Tik Tok works, then there's not much of a point of complaining about Tik Tok's lack of "interesting" content for you if you're not actually willing to engage with the software.
For Windows? Should we target UWP or WinUI? WPF? WinForms? MAUI? Project Reunion? Or should we just stick with Win32? Maybe MFC.
There is a serious shortage of Raspberry Pis, sold out everywhere. Here, they are using the Pi 4 8GB, which is normally 75€, but expect to pay double if you want one now.

They also sell the box without the Pi, SSDs, antenna and fan for 150€, it is up to you to decide if the price is justified, I think it is a bit on the expensive side but not unreasonably so. But if you intend to DIY the same configuration they are selling for 540€, you won't get that much cheaper.

Ask HN: Am I a Copycat?
I got self-doubt that am I doing right by making https://pipgig.com

Quick story:

I am from India and my wife is a beginner and trying to sell her digital arts online. (helinaik.com)

I asked her to use gumroad because I like it. After some time they just update their pricing and started charging 9% which I thought is more. So I thought of making a platform where a creator can make most of their earning.

I like making things so I made MVP quickly but now as we are approaching marketing I Got this question "Am I a copycat?"

Do share your thoughts.

Where to Start with DevSecOps
Thank you so much inventing it.

This serves as an ice breaker in my introductions to python programming and works like a charm every time.
Also a major issue was the big iron shared memory systems that Itanium targeted. They collectively fell out of favor with the trend towards Virtualised x64 commodity clusters and later the cloud. I’d love to see an EPIC strategy for a CPU targeted at smaller systems. Perhaps implementing webassembly based actors in hardware and support for messaging and pmem. Wasmcloud in hardware.
Disappointing :(
I agree with your definition.

But I also observe that a lot of companies have trouble coming to terms with the fact that they do not in fact need a FULL stack developer; they might need a front-end dev who can implement the occasional API endpoint themselves. But that person will never touch DB schemas or such.

I think Full-Stack has become a term that's too often used by non-technical people. just my two cents
Yessir! Nothing wins you respect and admiration among the "liberated" population faster than extra-judicial killings!
If you have good models, yes.
I just say I'm a developer who's done frontend, backend, and devops-y stuff for web systems. To anyone but a recruiter or manager who hasn't coded in decades, that's enough to clarify for them.
Google has always recruited and interviewed independently of whether they actually have roles open that make sense for you. Earlier this year, I passed the interview and spent six weeks in "team match" before I gave up and took a role with another company. Had a friend who did the same for months for a PM role.

Just bc you're getting contacted by Google recruiters this week or interviewing doesn't mean you'll ever find a team or get a real offer.
Building an Image Overlay API with Express
Sure, but Git is the standard.
That is a pretty wild claim there. Care to elaborate?
I couldn't agree with you more.
A FAANG-tier company with which I'm closely familiar pretty much did the worst thing every time during the past 2 years - they tried to tighten the belt when COVID first hit (missing a ton of great talent when the initial uncertainly killed off some of the smaller companies), then they tried growing and chasing talent really hard, right when the bubble was at its peak, and now that the economic outlook is negative, they've halted / significantly slowed down hiring.
My personal opinion is that Warren Buffett's old quote to be "fearful when others are greedy, and greedy when others are fearful" rings really true.
The APA102 is probably even simpler, it acts as a 1 byte shift register register per LED and passes the bytes down the chain without needing to really know the total length, there's some special case to latch all the data into the output registers. I'm fond of that design because it needs no timing specific input, you could easily input the data with push buttons if you cared to.
I was asked this in an interview recently. I answered that a front end developer works on things the user can see or touch; a back end developer works on the parts you can't see, and a full stack developer is a made-up term used mostly by management because there is no such thing as a person who is equally adept at the front and back.

I got the job, and I do think this is the real answer. Just be honest about which side you're better at and where your real experience lies.
I also work in the data space.

Yes.

Stepping back from the Rust specific things for a moment. I’ll go a step further and say “you should take the opportunity to learn multiple, different languages”.
At worst you learn a new language and grow your skills.
Different languages have different strengths/weaknesses and styles, and being exposed to them gives you more “tools” to use to solve problems, and different styles give you different ways to “think” which is useful for solving tricky problems (Haskell and Lisp are good examples of this) that may be tackled in much simpler ways of you swap to different styles/languages.

Now, as for Rust specifically: it’s a great language, it’s popular, it’s performant and has a number of other benefits. It’s fast enough, that you can write reasonably normal, idiomatic code in it and get shockingly good performance; why do I bring this up? Without too much effort, you can write code that is correct (in ways much stronger than what python can offer) while giving you performance close or better than those libraries. You’re no longer restricted by what’s prepackaged in libraries - if you need something that isn’t available, building it, and getting good flexibility and performance.

Personally, I think Rust has a lot of potential for the data space. Previously you had to rely on expertly written and tightly optimised Java/Scala or C/C++, but Rust is opening up so much optionality.
Polars has basically jumped straight to the top of dataframe library performance, DataFusion/Ballista are shaping up to be viable replacement for Spark with better performance and less general pain. Libs like SQLX and Cornucopia are offering compile time type checked SQL in awesome ways. The data space is still somewhat young in Rust, but it has a huge amount of potential IMO.
>With the current electricity prices in Germany you'd be paying around 30 €/month for a 100 W always-on server. And enterprise servers idle at around 200-250 W, so there's that.

Where are you getting these measurements from? A "consumer-grade PC" idles at a few watts[1]. "enterprise servers" might idle a bit higher but nowhere near 200-250W.

Well, the doc is not perfect but let you start using advanced features, settings and workflows.

Everything has it's own problems.

If the question is "Could we (re-)boot a modern civilisation without fossil fuels", then "charcoal is and was a widely-used, sustainable (and sometimes superior) alternative for things that fossil fuels were and are used for" isn't a "...but..." it's an "... of course ...".

So, to be clear, deforestation is a potential problem for any kind of wood usage. It is generically, an issue for all resources, fish, buffalo, bees, golden geese. If you need something, don't kill the source of it, is a good general rule to follow. Though if you're an invading army on foreign land, that generally doesn't impact on your long term planning as much as it should.

But, crucially for the question posed, wood can be managed as a sustainable resource, and is not a source of fossil carbon, so burning it, gasifying it etc., which almost certainly has "it's own problems" is not a problem from a carbon perspective, even though it releases carbon into the atmosphere when burnt.
You need one test key per pin, so on the order of 7 keys; that's not so terrible.
This. I chose Gitea instead of Gitlab specifically because of the high resource consumption. If OneDev turns out to be a sweet spot in between the two (I really wish I had CI/CD built into my VCS server), I might just switch.
I've spent time at a very large and well known hedge fund and I also have family at JS.

Regardless of what the individual you responded to thinks.. Firms like this have very difficult interview processes. They are looking for something "Special" and this excludes the vast majority of applications.

I took a taxi to my interview, and the taxi driver himself told me he drives many people to the location for interviews, and drives a lot of unhappy people back (failed the interview).

It should tell you something when even a local taxi driver knows how difficult it is to get into these places.

I will try to answer your questions as well:

1) I did support work when i was at "hedge fund" - They want people who can think outside the box and be a culture fit. their culture is well known, and you either fit in or you don't. There is no "faking it".

They generally hire fresh grades from ivy league schools. This way they can indoctrinate the culture. This is not always the case, but probably 70% of their employees were done this way.

2) Many of my former coworkers are now CEO's, COO's etc. Besides the money the culture encourages you to push past your limits and grow. One guy was a developer, he's now the CIO for an international makeup company..

At the firm I worked at, it did not matter what your role was. If you wanted to change groups, you would be given a fair chance to take the tests. if you passed, you were in the new role. The tests were INTENSE... but many "techs" moved to business roles over the years.
How do web sites like http://cpp.sh/ run code? Wouldn't it be enough to forbid/intercept system calls somehow and set limits with systemd-run or do you really need a VM?
For me, it's more about whether I have missed something in evaluating the options. Sure Barcelona vs Rome is more or less equal, but I don't have the complete information about both of them. I might say it's easier to choose after I visited both, but definitely not before.

It's also about what parts of both the cities I'd enjoy. Overall, they might be the same. But if I like some specific aspect let's say history, Rome is better. If I like diverse cuisines for instance, them Barcelona is better.
Simpler than Python? Definitely Go. Probably Java and JavaScript. Maybe even C, although the whole "undefined behaviour" thing is a different kind of complexity.

I'd consider the complexity of Python comparable to that of C# and Swift - it's a similar "kitchen sink" language.

C++, of course, is in a league of its own.
My money is on Amazon being more fine with "aggressively pruning their workforce" on a regular basis. The point of a hiring freeze is so that you can move employees around internally to prune unprofitable parts of the business without pruning workers.

"Whatever task your business needs me to do with a computer, I'll figure it out."

Functionally today this usually means anything from CI systems and OS/networking config all the way up to CSS tweaks. Sometimes though, it extends to lower level things, hardware things, mobile development, more "business" things like SEO or understanding marketing -- it's similar to "a utility player".

I do think many people think of it in the context of just web dev, though.
While the parent poster did say "eurodollar", I don't think he's talking about prices of computer components in terms of "U.S. dollars held in time deposit accounts in banks outside the United States".
