1- only reasonable if the companies staff are prejudicial against protected groups. Granted this is true of most companies, so perhaps reforming toxic culture should take a higher precedent if lawsuits are so scary…

2- have you had an hr job? I haven’t, but have had the misfortune of working closely with several different hr agents and the shit they deal with is exhausting.

3- accurate

4- this is losing its efficacy as even the poors are realizing all the glitz is for show when the cashier wearing a corporate mandated pride flag and blm patch will still mutter slurs under their breath.

I would add 5- recruiters have had the tables turned on them for the first time nationwide outside of history books about dead or dying people. These folks weren’t trained to sell but to extract and most people simply aren’t elastic enough to adapt as fast as their potential victims are adapting.

6-generational and class divide. There’s the generation and class of people who bought homes, second homes, summer cars, boats, rvs, and had litters of children on meager salaries. Many of these folks aren’t well educated or informed and have no way to conceptualize how much the world has changed around them as they’ve sleepwalked through life working, raising children, and watching television. Even if they can conceptualize a piece of the new world they inhabit it’s rare that they can reform their entire worldview to incorporate the new information and adjusting their opinions is an entire other bag of worms.
The lie of social media was that you can replace your social circle entirely with exact copies of yourself. But that’s highly boring as hell.
I believe most recruiters already do this.

Ah!
You might find this community interesting. https://www.indiehackers.com/. There is a culture/group of small one-person startups that are more aimed at lifestyle than trying to necessarily get taken over.

> I enjoy web scraping a lot and have used it to solve a bunch of real world problems my (ex) girlfriend or I had.

It is these kinds of problems people there are finding, but also making sure one way or another that there is demand for people to pay for those problems to be solved. As it is not enough that there is a problem, there has to be a paying audience.

It is quite a journey and a lot of dedication to get a little business up and running, but the reward will be getting paid to do mostly what you love each day. Eventually.

And being in Europe you can get to freedom quicker by finding a low cost of living city, town, or rural area even. As long as you have good internet.

My advice (to early me) would be - cut costs down to the bone. Stay single (for the time it gives you), cut friends who make you do expensive things, live in crappiest shared accommodation, sell valuables, eschew alcohol and eating out. And get literally to ramen profitability (making enough money so you can eat. I recommend eating healthy though, not just noodles!).

Most stuff we don't need. Need a phone? Well maybe but a $20 phone on a $10/year plan is enough. Need a gym? No - you just need some heavy objects around the house. Etc.

To make this monk-like life more interesting, you could nomad a bit and stay in different parts of the country, which you should be able to do cheaply if you can live from a single suitcase or backpack. Instead of drinking / eating out in expensive capital cities, you are exploring small towns with your packed lunch. I say this as it adds a bit of spark to otherwise frugal existence that can be hard to swallow if friends are living it up.

Also make friends and meet up with people doing similar to you.

The old advice is quit your job ONCE you are making money. I say, save enough money then quit, and learn to live without a job. I wish I had.

Nuclear waste doesn’t last 15.7 billion years. It’s radioactive for hundreds to thousands of years. I expect this is why the waste site would cost $3.5B to store forever. Waste isn’t terribly heavy or large so the storage is largely fixed to dispose of many, many reactors.

And there’s a bit of unused space in Finland :)

Do you have to be completely ignorant of how DDG works to write this article? They don't index or rank anything. Microsoft is doing that.
They've been around for decades, both for thru-hole and surface-mount. When you're using automated machinery, you don't want to mess around with wire jumpers; a zero-ohm resistor can be inserted or pick-and-placed using the same automated equipment that normal resistors are placed with.

> On the other hand, resting heart rate of under 60 is good. Under 50 is likely better.

Not true in the general case. Asymptomatic bradycardia without increased risk of death may be present in athletes but assuming that's always the case can be dangerous. Other causes include a number of heart diseases, hypothyroidism, sleep apnea, medications such as betablockers...
Any TV is dumb if you cut off its internet access in the firewall. A car with a sim card requires a bit more.
> The way this article conveniently ignores that fact leads me to believe there's no chance of the modified synchronous reluctance motor exceeding the efficiency of the induction motor and therefore will have no impact on the electric car industry.

This is because you are 5+ years out of date with the state of the industry. All of the latest cars -including those from tesla (3 and Y)- are using SRMs, most with neodymium magnets. Note that these are NOT brushless PM motors, and the magnets are used for a different purpose. SRMs have the highest peak efficiency of any common motor design and are cheaper than brushless PM motors.

The only reasons not to use SRMs are the slightly lower torque efficiency and the difficulty of design... both of which this guy did.
I'm not super happy about log4j as it affected us through a third party install (via PyPI even!).

But the issue I see is that larger software installations have larger attack surfaces. And the typical python, js, golang (eg.) projects are just exploding in dependencies.

I think the python project I run at work is now over 100 deps on PyPI. My simplistic golang side project is around 50 or so.
Very unlikely. All the startups are EV manufacturers with even more technology.
The elephant in the room: DDG's search results are primarily sourced from Bing.

Unfortunately, as long as DDG depends on third-party crawlers, the suggestions to improve search results (& "the algorithm") seem far-fetched & naive.

(DDG does have its own crawler, DuckDuckBot, but apparently it's only used for very specific functionality.)

The absolute flattening of the "daily searches" chart is interesting and I'm curious how it has continued.

I know a handful of us immediately switched out of DDG when they decided they were going to artificially down-rank Russian web sites from results[1], but I imagine the overlap between DDG users and people who care about this is quite small.

It's worth noting that the source of this is a someone who is hawking a pricey "cracking the system design" type interview book. I feel like these types of posts are intended to create anxiety in the reader - "oh my god I had no idea what a quad tree even was?!" I think much of the cottage industry that has sprung up about "cracking interviews" is predicated on maintaining a constant state of anxiety as well. If you look at something like Leetcode it's the same thing, there's something like 2,000+ questions there. So many that you can never feel confident. The job of preparing is never done. As long as people have anxiety about everything they don't and can't have any sense of confidence, they will be inclined to fork over their money in an attempt to assuage that anxiety created by such material.
Brave state that it's 'built on top of an independent index' but once you compare a few queries, it's obvious that they're just using a slightly modified version of Google results.
Absolutely; Complex macros are frequently written by breaking them up into smaller "actual" functions. The body of the macro just receives it's unevaluated arguments and calls those functions on them, because the only thing that's special about it is when it runs, that it's arguments are initially unevaluated, and that it's output is interpreted (possibly by a compiler) as code. Within the context of the macro's body, it's lisp like any other.
My cellular service is only 3GB/month and charges a few cents/minute for the rare voice call I do, but it's less than $7/month.
Thank you! Wow, can't believe I've never seen nomadlist. I imagine Search Away would look similar if I could afford hiring a designer.

Agree, qualitative data would be great. Niche has the ability to add reviews but I don't think that's the right approach. I'll have to keep thinking about other ways of getting quality user-generated data. I think it would be really cool if a town official provided a quarterly/annual statement highlighting their area but that might be too time-consuming and expensive to get.

Young families, first-time home buyers and anyone making a move to an area they aren't familiar with.

Thanks for the feedback!
I think it’s a tech demo for chat bots as some form of saas.
The killer feature would be to rate this search result. If I could see other users hate the site, I won't spend time looking at it. Thumbs up and down would work just fine.
God, if this is true this guy is a trade A moron (like that wasn’t already true).

There's no reason you can't have both. KDE for example does a pretty good job of having GUIs to edit config, but that config is stored in human editable text files.
The rampant anti-consumer abuse is mainly an American thing, and it's not just cars.
Let users just rate that search result, so if someone else searched for the same thing and didn't find it relevant, they can thumbs down. If they found it relevant, they can thumb up.
Idk, this article seems hopelessly naive. So, the author would essentially like to go back in time to a less morally ambiguous internet when people (i.e. techies and nerds) had engaging, thoughtful, and respectful conversations where each emerged a better person. Not gonna happen. The future of social networking looks a lot more like Twitter (but meaner) than it does to the halcyon days of IRC.

> Using rising home values as a retirement account is essentially just a pyramid scheme.

Paying down a mortgage builds equity in the home. It's because homes are relatively illiquid and most people choose to own instead of rent that housing works rather well as a de facto retirement account. I see no issue with that personally.

> Like, just think about how this has to work. It only functions if home values drastically increase between purchase and retirement, right?

No it doesn't, for the same reason as stated above: accrued equity as a mortgage is paid down. Also, average home appreciation in the US roughly tracks inflation (which makes sense).

> just look at the bay area for an example

Why would you look at the most extreme real estate market in the country to draw any important conclusions?

> It's unearned wealth, plain and simple.

No it was just an investment whose return variance is principally explained by randomness. And of course not representative of the larger set. Almost everyone who has money in housing loses out after accounting for opportunity cost and things like maintenance + repair + property taxes.
I've never thought about it that way before, and suppose that it applies to any language with a two-way FFI (including more diverse languages like, well, just Guile Scheme off the top of my head, but insure there are more-- I'm sure someone could really benefit from a list of languages that can essentially target C like this)

Life is too complex for us humans to understand, we are just scratching the surface. There are too many confounding variables. Smoking has been proven to kill but has not smoking been shown to improve quality of life and longevity for the SAME individuals who died of smoking? There are multiple variables at play: smoking kills animals in a lab but what about depression and stress which otherwise be reduced by smoking? Some people are not prone to such problems or have other ways of dealing with them so smoking would just kill such people. But for others it could improve their quality of life or even longevity.
Same goes with the idea in this article: travel less to stay healthy? Many would argue that life’s purpose is to travel and make memories, life would be meaningless for these people.

SavageGeese is the best. Mark and Jack are hilarious and produce top quality automotive journalism.
Everyone on HN is catching up to this, but what we are all realizing is we want actual user curation, trusted user curation.

Reddit is currently a good proxy because the best recommendations on Reddit for a question are upvoted reasonably democratically by the type of people you’d trust. For the time being the gamification of Reddit isn’t bad enough to be an issue here.

But that’s just a matter of time. As more and more people start using Reddit as the most authentic source of dependable information, folks are gonna start gaming that to the core as well, basically this is going to be a game like the Red Queen.

One possibility is that the search engine itself starts becoming like Reddit maybe? They clearly know what result you’re clicking, they could start making user similarities (or ask you for an explicit list of your peers) to find similar users and rank results based on what people like you click. Obviously google can do it easier since it knows YOu. But even DDG maybe able to do something like user curation or site blacklisting (and have popular lists like exist for tracking avoidance that you can subscribe to). This is the only solution IMO.

For example for any coding related search I’d be happy to rid of every top 10 result in google except SO. All the rest is garbage.

Maybe there’s also an upvote button. But the score is not universal but personalized to you based on votes from people you actually might trust.
I was raised in a family which believed explicitly in the wrongness of the outcome but also implicitly in the wrongness of the facts in the case. Later in life, reading Richard Rhodes' work I have come to believe there were material facts in the case which make at least Julius complicit in spying, but it doesn't alter my explicit belief the death sentence was hysteria pour encourager les autres and a sign of how strong anticommunist fear was at the time. Ethel had nothing to do with the mechanics here. She died, for not telling the government what her husband did. Remember the acts of the time before 1950s, are about an Ally, one the US was sending materiel continuously, by boat, train and plane. The flood of information and goods was continuous. Including (according to Rhodes) graphite and uranium which can only have been requested for atomic work.

The Rosenbergs were passers-on. They facilitated information flow. They neither had access to the sources, nor really knew what they were doing. Intermediaries. Harry Gold and Greenglass were as complicit. Yet, it was the Rosenbergs who went to the chair.

At no time in WW2, or subsequenty, was the US "at war" with the USSR, and to kill the Rosenbergs when other choices existed was to me, not a signal of strength, any more than current political crises foment death sentences for individuals caught up in inter-state disputes. I wonder if they had been the individuals on hand when Gary Powers was captured (1960s), if the swap could have been done? Colonel Abel was a high value asset but also a soviet citizen. Rhodes makes a strong case that the russians will walk over hot coals to get their own back, but were prepared to throw foreign nationals who spied in their interests under the bus.

I expect few here agree with me, but none the less, I think Claus Fuchs was a brave, and moral man. I know people have strong views that accepting British citizenship placed him in a duty to his state, but I think his background led him inexorably to needing to do this, in his own moral compass. Fuchs went on to lead peaceful atomic power work in East Germany, and his contribution to the bomb is immense, and should not be minimised: he actively helped make the bomb work. He did the maths on implosions.

Likewise Helen and Peter Kroger. To deliberately construct a life like that, a dual persona, takes a lot of commitment and strength. I doubt I could carry it off.

I don't personally like the word traitor or treason. I think its a very loose term, but that said, it would be hard not to apply it here.
Congratulations on the launch. This is great - I had started to feel the pinch of provisioning de-provisioning 2-3 years ago and wrote scripts for ~10 SaaS applications. Worked great until we started to get more and more SaaS apps and there was a day when I spent more time writing script for the tool rather than for the actual product of our company. Ditched the tool the next day.

Was planning to open source the tool but didn't really get the time then - great to see you guys solving it well! Congratulations!!

I took a MS level project management class that was geared towards PMP and the instructor had run massive projects to build out factories before teaching. I don’t know what base you’re starting from but if there are courses that seem relevant, research the department/school they are under to see what people that finish those courses end up doing. See if the instructors have real world experience and if you jump into that, aim to build your network along the way. I have no idea if they do product mgmt but MIT and Stanford have some of their curriculum free online or post videos from classes. You could get a feel for the content and see if it would help, if thats available.

I think you’re underestimating your experience at a startup. Bad experiences really help solidify what not to do and the path ahead is easier to see.
