> No creative impulse, just worries about chores/bills/obligation

I think that's critical in many people's lives and I've felt it starting to creep in my, but I think I'm keeping it at bay. Based on personal experience, when you settle down and/or start family, chores/bills/obligations start creeping up on you massively. It's very easy to get sucked into a mindset that if you start falling behind on those, your life will start falling apart. In reality, a lot of those can be postponed with only minor downsides. Yes, you can live in a slightly dirtier/less organized house. Yes, the lawn can be slightly less maintained. Yes, you can probably postpone that car service another week. Just sit down, forget about the world [not] falling apart and enjoy your hobbies. Write some side-project code, start a hardware tinkering project that you're unlikely to finish. Disassemble a failing kitchen appliance to see if you can fix it. Those things bring way more to your life than the apparent utility!
According to an another article I read on here a few months back, "working off calories" is basically impossible over the long term. The body will adapt to the work and become more efficient in how many calories it expends to do it. Or you'll injure yourself and be unable to do as much work.
Most shows "jump the shark" at some point, the Simpsons did so around Season 10 or so. I don't mind the animation but I do think it stopped being funny.
I remember watching a documentary about Syrian and Iraqi refugees trying to immigrate to the baltic states. The documentary talked about the effort to try to reduce the stigma of "middle east man terrorist" for the refugees because the stigma alone contributed to the mutual resentment of these people. To be clear, the doc purported that being exposed to the stigma actually encouraged violence and primed jihad-sympathy among the Islamic refugees.

All this is to say that if you treat people like hateful bigots, they're likely to become hateful bigots. This overreaction seems to have the potential to do harm than good.
Mostly level 4 SWEs, a few L5s.
There are also denitrification inhibitors. Some are even natural (procyanidins and others). I can imagine growing crops engineered to produce and release these.

I wonder why I forget these all the time and have to search for them at least once a month.
I was taking a VLSI design course in 1981, and the professor teaching it proudly showed off some 432 chips (embedded in plastic) that he'd been given. He waxed lyrically about them, how the big boys were doing silicon in Silly Valley. (We, with our colored pencils, were learning how to do NAND gates and full adders in NMOS, on graph paper).

Later, I read Organick's book on the 432. It was kind of a mess, no idea how they expected the thing to perform.

This was also back when ADA was the up-and-coming language, which the 432 was going to run really well (if you believed the marketing). ADA was pretty intimidating, as it was complicated for the time and generics seemed to scare everyone. (Little did we know that C++ was going to be a thing in a decade or so, and it made ADA seem simple in comparison).
And yet Alexa still can't understand the most basic things.

And yet AI can't drive auto's.

And yet we still don't have fundamental understanding of fusion power.

And yet we still don't have full understanding of protein folding or how DNA winds itself up so tightly.

And so many other things that have been issues since forever ago.

The world hasn't had any real significant scientific breakthroughs that change our lives in decades other than incremental improvements on existing technology.

Scientists can pat each other on the back all they want for their awesome papers...wake me up when a scientist finally does something that impacts my life.
"When you do business with authoritarian states, you inevitably resemble them in some shape or form"

same with my grandfather, drank a lot everyday and died at 82. My other grandfather died at 60 of a sudden heart attack, he was the model of a "good husband, father, community member and, responsible citizen", i sometimes think the stress that is caused by living such a clean life was what killed him.
> "Someone has been caused anxiety based on your social media post. This is why you have been arrested."

So I guess the UK police are going to try to arrest the entire Internet? Show me a social media post that doesn't cause anxiety.
This is honestly my favorite formatting feature. I use it a lot in debug/info logs and its honestly my first go to when debugging something trivial enough that I don't want to spin up the full debugger.

Its an offense under the Mal Comms laws (which are daft).

If there's a report, they have a duty to go interview the person, and usually its closed as NFA.

In this case, he arranged for a voluntary interview (which would have leas to NFA), then reneged, which creates the conditions under PACE that necessitate an arrest so interview can be done quickly.

All of which would have been explained to him.

He wanted to get arrested, or had a room temperature IQ. Or both.
You're correct. Those factors are often overlooked. Kids don't even know that if they ask enough times, there are kind people who are willing to help them.

All this leads me to conclude that we need to do better so these resources to innovate and learn are accessible to all.
I think this is very right. We have only scratched the surface in terms of creatively experimenting with the IDE UI to give the developer more ways to quickly explore and refactor code. Text in/text out is a serious loss in fidelity from the overall input/output capabilities of a computer.
On-prem k8s is almost always a bad idea.

Things like storage or traffic routing become uncertain/hacky at best or at worst just straight up don’t work. I’ve literally seen many on-prem k8s deployments where there was no support for persistent volume claims because of storage - whether the enterprise storage solution wasn’t supported by k8s or because there was no way to guarantee storage (HDDs being a capital expense and therefore purchased ahead of time).

Examples of friction off the top of my head:

* storage - who knows if there’s actually enough space to provision and attach a volume

* exposing a service externally

* load balancers managed by a different team (such as networking) and their process or tech environment not setup to support k8s

* certificates need to be requested and signed by approved enterprise certificate authority

* network security restrictions - lengthy process for firewall change requests or similar to expose a service externally (also related to point above on certificates)

I’ve also seen silly deployments where k8s runs inside VMware virtual machines - why not just run k8s directly on hardware if on-prem? Virtual machines just add a ton of unnecessary and expensive overhead.

Personally, my preferred way of doing k8s:

1. GKE (Google Kubernetes Engine) - the easiest and cheapest managed option

2. kops

Hot take here but I personally think EKS is convoluted and complicated as hell. I’ve not used AKS but in the past I’ve seen limitations such as network configuration that became problematic - couldn’t route traffic properly because IP space overlapped with corporate IP ranges already used by VPN and/or existing vnets, though it’s been a couple years since I first saw this specific example.
This is inspiring, and let's look at why so many of us have the impulse to figure out what the flaw or missing part of the story is.

For me, it's because I hadn't done something so cool at 17. That makes me think, huh, I wonder if I'm not a "natural born engineer". I start going through my life story so far and beating myself up for playing too many video games, or not going deep enough on my interests.

Then I start thinking about the ways my life is different from his. I start to feel resentment about the opportunities I didn't have, the resources that weren't available. What could I have done if things had been different?

Next I start to resent how society scores us on things that can contribute to the economy, or things that look particularly cool, and things that we accomplished at a young age.

And then I start to imagine the difficulties that this young inventor will have. "Oh yes", I think, "He'll find out soon enough what the REAL world is like."

And these thoughts are not who I want to be. But I can reflect and learn something about myself from them. And I can choose to go another way.

I can decide that, if a 17 year old kid with the right resources and a crazy idea can make something really cool, then I, as an adult with more experience and resources can make something at least as cool if I want to. And I'm going to. It's not like my life is over because I'm older than 17.

And if this article is making you spiral with insecurity, I hope you make a similar decision. A decision to be inspired instead of intimidated.
> Ted Cruz seems to agree on that:

Honestly, even as an optimistic Bitcoiner that is too much of a stretch; Texas' electricity grid is a nightmare of Enron proportions, and at best Bitcoin can provide stabilizers to the grid to offset some unnecessary expenses and turn off it's mining operations when the grid becomes overwhelemed by demand, what is really needed there is much more than what BTC can provide.

It's use and investment into Wind is laudable, but what is needed as complete overhaul of how ERCOT does business, and I honestly doubt a corrupt politician like Ted Cruz (or anyone else from that state) will actually do anything about that as he will just go to Mexico when the grid fails... again.

I said Texas was a bad place to relocate those miners after China banned it, and yet it still provides a significant amount of the hashing power proving the point that it cannot be banned, and even more showed up after the uprising situation in Kazakhstan earlier this year--El Salvador or Tonga could have used them, or even Iceland would have been a better choice. And still it went ahead and mining operations were backed by tech 'luminaries' like Peter Thiel, which were followed by continuous winter and summer based outages and blackouts, proving that just coaxing something as energy demanding as BTC is far more complex than just shoe-horning something that sounds 'green.'
I think the author focused more on the PDF version and just translated his design for PDF to the website.
> How does your company handle communication etiquette?

There's no etiquette in hiring today. Anything goes is the current de facto standard, and anything above it is extending courtesy to the candidate.
I'm not a lawyer but my interpretation of section 127 is the 'message' which caused anxiety would not be able to be proven false or that the sender knew to be false (since it's not a definitive statement about anything in particular, or in fact a message), and so didn't break the law.

The alternative avenue is the police itself thought the material is of 'grossly offensive or of an indecent, obscene or menacing character' which would be next-level stupidity if the CPS actually agreed with.
I really don't understand the perspective of most people here.

Providing a service like Gitlab does costs money. The more people use it, the more it costs them. The bigger the projects they host, the more it costs them.

Maybe at one point X feature was practical for them to provide for no cost. Now that they're larger, X feature is now too costly to provide for free.

I don't think it's reasonable for everyone to use whatever pricing scheme would work at the huge scale when they haven't made it there yet. That's a recipe for killing the product fast. So - start with what works to get yourself off the ground and adapt as inflow and outflow of cash change.

If you don't like it, there are plenty of alternatives.
It's an extremely useful pattern for me when logging to be honest.

Theres also talk of improving the situation, including

- Depencency MSRV errors explaining how to downgrade (merged)

- The dependency resolver skipping versions that need newer Rust. To have reasonable errors, this will require the new pubgrub resolver. The main question is opt-in vs opt-out

- Warnings when using functions newer than your MSRV

Where was it ever guaranteed in the first place?
Wow, this exactly how I organize my thoughts, and I've been slowly thinking about the design of this tool too.

I think the most unsolved part is the layout of arrows. I've never used any drawing or flowcharting program that could connect items at the speed of thought. You always spend time fiddling with the pathing of connector lines.

The auto-OCR feature is tricky too. You don't want to waste time clicking the Rect tool to draw a rectangle.
I’ve been there, more than once. I seriously doubt the creative impulse can be eradicated, it is just hiding.

The way I’ve gotten past this is to commit to messing around, or trying to make some small thing, at a specific time on a schedule.

(Every morning, whatever you have)

Make no rules about what is “valid” to work on, and give yourself permission to quit after a certain amount of time if you still aren’t feeling it that day.

The creativity will return as a result of doing. And it may take a form that surprises you, and wasn’t what you set out to focus on, because currently you don’t know yourself well enough to know what you are even interested in.

One day, during one of those periods, I sat down at my regularly scheduled time and I produced computer music for about 60 minutes, listened back to what I made and was absolutely disgusted by how mediocre it was.

I stood up to walk out of my studio and on a lark picked up my trusty 6 string bass. I then wrote this entire song in one pass:

Spotify

Apple Music

https://music.apple.com/us/album/sometimes-you-need-sun-feat...

It just came out fully formed.

Relax, play, mess around, do little fun or interesting things. Let your mind wander. But sit down at your scheduled time.

Inspiration will return.
The application keys definitely do. The handshake keys are modified and at some point become useless to tshark. Not sure if it is a defensive coding thing, or what, but yeah if we don't catch it at the exact right moment they don't work.

As the other two comments point out, you can have the equipment without the software activated. So their guess/"quote" makes an incorrect assumption.

So, what value does it add? It seems to simply exist to make an assumption that makes the other HNer look bad.
Kind of seems a bit like Muse, which is an iPad app.
>They went over by arrangement with him for a voluntary interview, the guy decided to be an arse about it,

Voluntary interview doesn't seem so voluntary if you can't refuse it (or, rescind the voluntary acceptance of interview) without the refusal becoming a condition for a non-voluntary interview.
I think thieves quickly realised that public CCTVs do not actually prevent them from stealing and don't really increase their chance of being caught, either...

In many (most?) cases public CCTVs are scarecrows.
The proper answer, if you want more fuel efficient vehicles, is to simply raise the gas tax and allow every company's engineering teams decide what to build, and every consumer to decide what they want. This keeps domain expertise where it belongs while achieving the stated goals, and does not strictly reduce choice. If engineers could not figure out more efficient designs, and customers wanted more efficient vehicles, they could simply make smaller trucks to sell.

Instead they demanded companies engineer vehicles to conform to weird mpg/area curves that accidently skew towards "huge." It was in effect backseat engineering.
> Ukrainian military was one if not the most trained professional army in Europe. Second to none. With enough military supplies, fortified trenches and predefined logistical support, trained on NATO standards. The Russians, which we believed to be inferior, actually adapted to the task and without mobilization are winning.

Are you trying to pivot the russian narrative into a underdog story?
Interesting. This sounds exactly like what’s been happening with me trying to get down talking about my startup.
> at the end it just searches for dealers that have inventory

Most U.S. states have laws requiring car sales only through dealerships. That's why you can't just directly buy a vehicle fully customized from a manufacturer.

I agree that the finite-ness to Japanese syllabics is to its benefit, but I think the idea that that's a massive benefit to children is a bit… patriotic, perhaps? Children are language learning machines and your grandson would be making the same sort of progress were he being raised in a primarily English household, just as you (presumably) did. In my opinion, the cool thing here isn't how kana works; it's how our brains work.
I do a lot of cryptography stuff in rust that is ported to various platforms and embedded in larger apps so I don't have to write the same logic over and over (desktop/mobile mainly).

Subscription fire departments and volunteer fire departments aren't the same thing. I know all about volunteer fire departments, and have worked with them in the past.

Subscription fire departments were commercial entities, sometimes run by insurance companies, to which you paid a regular subscription fee. If you house was on fire, they'd extinguish the flames. If your neighbor's house was on fire, and they didn't subscribe, then they let it burn.

Citing a completely different thing does not refute what I wrote. It just illustrates that you don't fully understand the issue.
A rooted OS can still be on your side, and it's still the burden of the OS to structure how it protects and informs you about what the programs installed on it are doing. This still requires regulation, because the people who produce hardware don't share with the public (and with the people with the skills and interest to create non-user-hostile software) the information necessary to run that hardware, artificially restricting the market to their business partners.

The problem is that the government doesn't want you to have control over your phone either.
Burning plastic is only good if you capture the released CO2. Otherwise, I have a hard time imagining plastic is a more efficient fuel than most fossil fuels, meaning you release more CO2 for the same result when burning plastic.

That's a false dichotomy

> If this kid can't handle a little bit of criticism

I do expect adults - over 25 - to take the rough with the smooth. But children are not adults.

I think you're assuming your own competence at pedagogy. I would want to shield children from you until they've developed the resilience you demand from them.

Also, the emotional tone - sheesh
I think they'll have a more premium product for vessels that want to redistribute connectivity (i.e. cruise ships) and that probably need larger capacity. Or just a bunch of them :)
You are fully correct, except for the moralizing aspect. Its not about being sociopathic - it is about being realistic. There is no way to enforce politeness in our society.
> the police have recorded over 100000 incidents

I just think it's worth rebutting, that the police are not combing twitter for anything borderline.

These are complaints that the public are making to the police. There is a relevant law about malicious comms, so the police are obliged to open a case.

> this new woke era

Give me a break. Members of the public are taxed to provide a police service. If they feel like they're a victim of malicious communications, they're allowed to go to the police. Nothing to do with being "content to police non-crime" or being "woke".
Thanks, that's a good summary of what I've seen referenced throughout my years here.

I can't find any reference to something like "combine the scores of new submissions of the same URL to the first submission's score" though. I guess that's either new information or incorrect.
Ask HN: Has anyone else had work emails spammed by Meta?
Today I received a recruiting email from meta that was CC'd to every email I have used in the past decade, including a defunct company I worked for and my current work email (which luckily, was wrong at least). It appears Meta's recruiters are using data from their shadow profile on me to blast every possible email. Has anyone else had this experience? Is there some legal way for me to force them to remove me from their system?

Super robust, proper pockets, good fit, triple stitched, enough flex to squat in, etc. Twice what I normally would pay for jeans but ended up being totally worth it. But you do have to get used to the heavy denim feel and they'll never be as breathable as disintegrate-in-two-years jeans.
From Oscilloscope to Wireshark: A UDP Story
The problem is, as I think Op was alluding to, not all problems are shared, so how to build the supportive relationships that will help them.

I think for you, what you need to get out of a 1:1 might be different from other people, and that's ok - not everyone is the same.

You'll notice my point though where I suggested the Op use the phrase, "How can I help?" which is meant to create that shared interest. I just also suggest that not all conversations need to be transactional and in order to receive they should come at it with a "giver" mindset.
> Give it a rest and it will come back, or not.

I don't think this is right.

I think instead GP can pick up the brush over and over again and make things happen with or without the creative spark. The point is to get inspired by one's own creation, not to create ex nihilo.
