Litnerd (YC S21) | 3D Design Engineer, Senior/Full-Stack Engineer | Miami, NYC, remote | Full-time & internship

Litnerd turns classroom learning into an immersive and entertaining experience. We bring books to life by turning them into short TV episode series, streamed directly into the classroom each week during the school year.

There are 37M elementary school students across America and 42% of 4th grade students are reading at a 1st or 2nd grade proficiency level. The #1 reason students aren’t reading? They say it’s boring. We change that by bringing books to life. Think of your favorite book turned into a tv-show style episode-by-episode reenactment, coupled with a complete curriculum and lesson plans. Our team consists of writers, illustrators, educators, teachers, engineers, directors, cinematographers, music producers, choreographers, animators and actors.

Litnerd is a contracted vendor with New York City Department of Education. Over 14,000 K-5 students have streamed Litnerd in their classroom. 79% of students said Litnerd is their favorite way to learn! As one of our students said: “I loved this program. It helped me see the magic in books.“

The depression that I previously mentioned.
"Anyone thinking of using that should definitely consider just using WASI"

As far as I know, CFW heavily leans on V8 isolates for scaling.

Why reinvent the wheel?
may sound stupid... I recently started to test around with vitamin B supplements, inspired by some NMN interview, refined Vitamin B seemingly turns back age #inmice.
Decided to play around with the real thing first... B3 itself helps me sleep better, Yeast tablets feel like coffee, a full vitamin B complex seems to aleviate focus issues. For the first time in a while I'm able to actually work on something without getting distracted much.

Suffering from some adhd-like symptoms I used to be happy to be distracted.
Now I'm even unhappy when a coworker wants something.
AND I don't enjoy gaming... which is weird and frustrating because I consider myself addicted to video games.
> I suggested to move a device of theirs already on that network, closer to the overhead projector

What you didn't know is that it wouldn't work.

There is also an expectation that you don't just randomly start changing things in shared conference rooms. If there is an issue, you open a GUTS ticket and someone comes and solves the problem. Chances are if you discovered a real issue, there are 90 other rooms with the same issue that also would be updated.
If I say, a few people will copy?
> “It shall be unlawful for an operator of an email service to use a filtering algorithm to apply a label to an email sent to an email account from a political campaign unless the owner or user of the account took action to apply such a label.”

How do you apply the DO_NOT_FILTER label :(
>Some numbers for perspective: Baremetrics spent almost 8-10 years working on their product for a $4 million exit. They didn't raise a lot of VC capital, so their founder got a very good payday b/c he wasn't diluted that much.

His investors walked away from their $800k invested so that was helpful.

Even still, netting 3.7 million sounds great but it's somewhat misleading. For comparison, if you got a job today for 250k, got 5% raises, and invested all your money at 5% returns you'd end up with 3.5 million after 7 years.

That's kind of where I always end up w/ bootstrap SAAS ideas. My salary as a developer always sounds like a lot but it really sounds like a lot when you start talking about charging customers to match it. When you add in time value of money and risk the path to a successful bootstrap SAAS is a pretty narrow one.
It isn't like Apple hasn't jumped ship before. It remains to be seen if Apple can stay on top of the performance curve. Right now they are doing it, primarily, through capital intensive means. They have the best fab process, bought with capital investment and order guarantees, and some of the best ASIC and CPU arch heads in the world, bought with comp packages.

It's like like there's some law of nature that means Apple will always be on top. We'll see what Intel does - they might go down the RISCV path for all we know, wherein their own talent richness may well put them at an advantage.
REMOTE/FULL TIME

We are based out of the US but we do allow for employees outside of the US to join our team remotely, and we can look into work visas on a case-by-case basis.

The Arena Group is looking for full-stack engineers to join our team to help in current and upcoming builds. You would be working on a complete technology platform, with aspects including content management, ad monetization, and machine learning for major media sites. We are a media company covering stories for all different channels across sports, lifestyle, finance, and more, such as Sports Illustrated, Parade, and The Street. Right now, our team is about 40 employees strong, and we would love to have you be a part of it! See our full job posting below.

Best of luck to anyone looking for a new job :)
Ask HN: Is there a service to programmatically allocate cash to savings accounts
As interest rates climb, I manually move cash to maximize interest income. Is there a service that automates this? I'd happily pay a subscription fee to not have to do the research and click through a bunch of forms every couple of months. This hypothetical service would only work on accounts that are already open.
Nancy Pelosi to meet Taiwan’s president on Wednesday
Maybe its just my team, but dev's dont need to know k8s. It certainly doesn't hurt, but they should be able to write code and get their jobs done without knowing much about k8s at all. Basic shit like how to get logs, but thats a given for all platforms
> And a food is not healthier than the worst ingredient/compound. A "good" nutrient does not make up for the bad/ultra processed additives.

This can't be true in an absolute sense. There is no way that adding a single drop of high fructose corn syrup to a meal would completely ruin any health benefits of the rest of the meal. There is also no way that adding a bit of corn syrup to a plate of broccoli would be equally as unhealthy for you as a bowl of lucky charms. Obviously the mix of ingredients matters.

Where do you get the idea that a single bad ingredient ruins the entire food?
I love seeing these type of seemingly small bugs/edge-cases.

They always look so familiar with my own edge-case programming hiccups.

My wild guess is a null character was introduced into ubers' e-receipt. Would be fun to investigate.
If the other person wants to say "Yes, I am totally glad that Amazon gave these people jobs, and Amazon is good for doing that, and I take back my statement where I attack amazon, for profiting, by giving people these jobs", then that would be great.

But if they are unwilling to explicitly say that amazon giving these people these jobs is a good thing, then I think that says a lot.

Specifically, they should say, it is a good thing for amazon to "opportunistically". give these people those jobs, instead of saying that this "opportunistic" behavior of giving people those jobs is bad.
Back in those days i was quite heavily under sleeping and over coffee'ing, so quite possible. I haven't had an episode in ~8 years, but i also sleep and coffee intentionally these days.
That doesn't show that you're that person, however, only that you've learned some trivia about them — often details which are visible on Facebook, pilferable from their mail, or known to no longer trustwothy family members & friends. My hope would be that we could find a way to reliably fall back on a government ID check since, for example, an abusive ex who knows all of those details doesn't look like their target.
I live alone and occasionally invite friends over to make + eat dinner together. An extra set of hands prepping food and cleaning up afterwards is definitely faster than doing it solo.
I'm not saying that the climatologists need to make a plan. But someone does, and so far I haven't seen any credible road map that gets us to net zero quickly enough to avoid catastrophic climate change.

It seems there is no non-radical future - either we face catastrophic climate change or unimaginable changes to our way of life.

> It seems very sensible to say that emails that are from the prevailing legal authority should not be filtered

Yeah maybe, but that's not what this bill is saying. A political campaign is in no way a legal authority, let alone prevailing.
Incorrect headline: https://twitter.com/ProfBillMcGuire/status/15536783313457643...
Back in the day I too thought that it's all about the fluidity of language, language as a living "thing" that evolves with time.

Then I read Orwell's Politics and the English Language, and 1984.

After that, the fluidity of language appears to me to be more and more in the hands of lexicographers as Newspeak developers who work hand-in-glove (with Them, whom else? :P ) to form the new way of thinking. No more romantic notions of lexicography as the track record of a civilization's linguistic endeavours.
It's true that running side projects on a company cluster in an environment where no one is quite sure how to use the tool properly is a disaster waiting to happen.

Fortunately, k8s can act as a very secure sandbox when it's configured properly, so you'll know how to mitigate such a disaster once your company has trained its engineers on how to use the tool effectively.
That is the headline, but they are widely referred to as the Parthenon Marbles.

The British Museum likes to use the name "Elgin Marbles" to suggest that they were properly owned by Lord Elgin, but the procurement was dubious at best. In archeology, they're more often referred to as the Parthenon Marbles. (Including the Institute for Digital Archeology, who is the organization actually doing this work.)
I would first do calculation of what it would cost to host it on vanilla cloud services. They are often cheaper than what people think, if you include work hours needed.
> Besides, the "effort to upgrade our Goobuntu fleet usually took the better part of a year. With a two-year support window, there was only one year left until we had to go through the same process all over again for the next LTS. This entire process was a huge stress factor for our team, as we got hundreds of bugs with requests for help for corner cases."

Ummm.. No? Ubuntu LTS has a 5-year support window. Not 2.

Or maybe it didn't all the way back then? I don't recall.

A rolling distro does make sense though. Especially in a large org where you have a relatively homogenous usepatterns. All the edgecases you can find centrally and pre-empt them before rolling out the updates.
Demand: US has much more investment in pure-tech. In EU a lot of SWE are working in IT offices of non-tech companies. So the job market in the US is more competitive.

Supply: In the EU university is easily accessible, meaning that there are thousands of universities pumping hundreds of thousands of graduates a year. Plus, now they even invented the Blue Card to make it easy for skilled second/third worlders to immigrate to the EU.
Perhaps you misread? The parent comment says:

> It was a conspiracy theory, according to liberals, to believe that the vaccine would be mandatory and that it would not stop the disease.

> It was a conspiracy that russia would invade ukraine according to conservatives until it happened.

You appear to be agreeing with him? In any case, the use of "nutcase" isn't productive.
What is CERN's LHC doing?
One of my friends on my bike racing team has MS.

He does the opposite, and uses it against me all the time. "I have MS, and I can do this, so you'll be at the race with me right?"

It usually works :)
This is blatantly unconstitutional--it's almost directly a parallel to the amendment to TCPA that exempted debt collection calls that was struck down as unconstitutional just two years ago in https://www.supremecourt.gov/opinions/19pdf/19-631_2d93.pdf.

Zen 4 has been formally announced. Do you mean it has not launched?

Yeah, exactly this. They don't want to leave the decision to the users. They want you to see their message, whether you want to or not.

Spam is as spam does. This is spam.
In true Simpsons fashion, it did, but was later removed to avoid offense. The entry has been replaced with a incredible recipe for milque toast.
Correct. The landlord can always sue the tenant(s) for missed rent if they wish. In the case of the landlord in the article, a judge will probably be unsympathetic to their "plight", and could even order wage garnishment.
That's quite ridiculous. Chinese tech benefits everyone in exactly the same way Western tech benefits everyone, which is, not as much as you think. The advance in various technologies necessary for China to develop it's infrastructure has allowed manufacturing costs to go down and had allowed goods to be made at a lower cost, and the advances in tech from China aren't meaningfully any differently accessible to, say, someone in the Middle East, than advances in tech from the West.

If anything, the fact that foreign students in Chinese universities almost always go back to their original countries is also a large factor in proliferation of technology outside of China.
Yeah I let him talk me out of it.
> Buy corn you have to husk, meat you have to cut, fish you have to filet, wine you have to uncork, bread you have to slice, etc.

Ok, this is just silly. Cutting your own meat doesn't make it healthier than having a butcher cut it for you. Box wine is no more or less healthy than bottled wine with a cork. Slicing bread yourself doesn't change its health contents.

Its statements like these that make the whole argument seem like nonsense.
At least cosmetics do not affect the gameplay or fairness in any way. I think that's an important distinction to make. In Diablo Immortal you're paying for actual gear or items that help enhance that gear.

I have no problem with people buying fancy skins (or companies making money on them) because it doesn't provide players any advantage.

However, do I think sometimes even cosmetics can get rather expensive / predatory / addictive? Yes, they're not immune to other problems. Especially when they come in loot boxes. Rocket League has some neat cosmetics but I'll be damned if I'm going to pay $20 for a neat looking goal explosion or whatever...
BigScience built AI with good data to see if it would be less biased
IME they aren't using phone number randomizers, they're using autodialer services that end up using "random" phone numbers. Same as 2FA SMSs often come from "random" numbers, they're just from a bank of numbers controlled by the SMS service being used.

(Not saying it isn't spam, just commenting on this particular tactic.)
Truework | Software Engineers | San Francisco, CA | Full time | Onsite or Remote (US) | https://www.truework.com/careers/

Truework is hiring software engineers -- especially frontend software engineers -- to help overhaul employment and income verification and build a trusted identity layer for internet commerce. A full list of roles can be found here: https://www.truework.com/careers

Truework is building a platform to make it easy for lenders and fintech companies to leverage verified income and employment information in their products and offers. Our platform enables faster closing of loans and other transactions, increases access to financial products (that are often limited to W-2 employees with good credit), and gives employees visibility and control into how their employment information is shared with others.

We are growing quickly. We currently handle tens of thousands of verifications every month for top US mortgage lenders and are expanding into other fintech and lending verticals as we speak. That said, our team is still small, which means you’ll play big a part in shaping the future of Truework, and your work will have a significant impact and visibility.

We also have a strong financial foundation. Truework has resisted raising capital at extreme revenue multiples and we have several years of runway in the bank. We are well positioned to weather and potentially even take advantage of current macroeconomic situation. I'd be happy to tell you more about this all if we end up having a conversation.

Finally, in case you're curious, we are a Django and React (Typescript) shop, and run our infrastructure on AWS.

I (Steve) am Truework's head of engineering. If you’re interested or want to know more about working at Truework, send me a note at (my HN username)@truework.com.

Then I bought at 80 and held through 160, now it's at 96.

I'm a long term bull on AMD, but I think the rocket left the atmosphere already. To me it's a blue chip. Intel nor AMD will ever go out of business, unless and until x86 itself dies and neither can pivot. AMD has a lock on consoles, it is the only competitor to Intel in x86, it basically can't go out of business.
