Have been using this network for 6+ (?) months now on my blog [1], and I've been amazed. The current CPM is well higher than what Google AdSense used to give (at least many years ago), the ads are non-intrusive and of great quality in the tech niche (rather than the sadly common scammy banners from major networks), and it does not spy my visitors, which for me is an absolute priority.

The chilling effect Theranos created was the worst outcome by far.

Most biomedicine companies aren't doing things which can lead to a Theranos result, and 99% of the companies which are building devices with an eye toward FDA approval are doing so honestly.
Irrigation agriculture has been a primary source of life in places like Arizona for millennia. Reducing it down to "irrigation is unsustainable" is both incorrect and unproductive. It can be made sustainable, as long as we understand the system and respect appropriate limits within that. It's likely those changes will need to be larger than anyone wants, but they're still possible in a less dramatic way than "everyone is forcibly removed from the area".

I think in Amazon's case, it is slowly degrading into a flea-market type of experience.

It's harder and harder to find the good products from decent brands, even with a direct search. Many times the decent brand product seems to be someone independent who is buying the product elsewhere and shipping it on amazon for a markup.

Then there's the word-jumble brands for products - they all seem to be fly-by-night products that only seem to exist as long as the product entry has enough stars to get traction.

sigh.
I’d be interested in what you mean by that - VC investment has slowed down, but investment by large firms (tech or otherwise) is only increasing.

And with large language models, generative models, diffusion models, etc becoming more and more common its becoming less novel, but certainly not less popular.
Rapid change is a real problem and not a flaw of society. People cannot change careers quickly without loss of human capital. There is no flaw in society that you can fix to prevent this.

It doesn't mean that we shouldn't make things more efficient, but economies exist to serve people, not the other way around. That sometimes means bailing some people out, sometimes it means phasing something in, and sometimes it means changing the definition of value.

For example, painting used to be how you'd get a portrait. But photos did that much better. Painting shifted: it became much more abstract, and because photos were cheap and easy, they didn't have the same cachet as a portrait. Not many people hang big photo portraits on their walls they way they might have done with paintings.

I suspect authenticity, or some other thing which the machine cannot replicate, may be valued more in future.

The HackerNews community is not reflective of the general tech, consumer, or business environment. First-hand experience in delivering and selling AI solutions to enterprises and governments plus activity at conferences, venture capital investment, and other measures are showing that interest in AI is generally cooling off, even if there are interesting things happening with generative transformer models, which is where the interest is currently.

I feel that I have direct relevent expertise ... having wrestled many boys and girls my age growing up. There was at least one girl who could and did kick my ass. But there were lots of boys I couldn't beat.

It doesn't take a biologist to make this unsubtle observation. Boys in general are considerably advantaged over girls in any kind of brawl. An environment that doesn't allow a person to learn this growing up is too safe.

It’s great to see more companies focusing on inflammation. Is it possible to create a device like a continuous glucose monitor but for inflammation?
Yes the 5900/7900 but those have 12 cores. The higher end 5950/7950, which has a higher core count, actually perform slightly worse in games and are targeted towards a prosumer.

Don't get me wrong, they still work amazingly well for games. It's just that they sacrificed some performance in those chips for the higher core count so it only makes sense they'd want to push that further.

But my guess is they don't want to compete with their threadripper line. Unfortunately those come much later in the product cycle so we'll probably be waiting some time for a Zen 4 threadripper.

Entrepreneur's notes from WeWork story, as narrated in WeCrashed
Interestingly ioreg reports the same UUID for both monitors but Apple Menu->About Mac->System Report->Graphics/Displays on Intel Mac shows different serial numbers (not UUID) for both monitors. So,.... this sounmds like a bug in MacOS, not the monitors. Whatever they are using for UUID they should be taking into account the serial numbers reported by System Report.

Strange though, the M1 Mac shows no serial numbers. Both Macs have the swap problem.

Maybe you should add an update to your article. This is clearly an Apple bug, not a monitor manufacture bug. At least in my case.

-- update ---

Here is the output from ioreg on an M1 Max Mac

ioreg -r -c AppleCLCD2 | egrep 'ProductAttributes|EDID UUID'
| "DisplayAttributes" = {"SupportsSuspend"=No,"MaximumRefreshRate"=60,"SupportsActiveOff"=No,"PortID"=16,"ProductAttributes"={"ManufacturerID"="HPN","YearOfManufacture"=2021,"SerialNumber"=0,"ProductName"="HP E27u G4","AlphanumericSerialNumber"="CN41201PZ4","LegacyManufacturerID"=8718,"ProductID"=14060,"WeekOfManufacture"=20},"MaxVerticalImageSize"=34,"MaxHorizontalImageSize"=60,"HasHDMILegacyEDID"=No,"Chromaticity"={"Red"={"X"=42816,"Y"=21824},"Green"={"X"=19200,"Y"=41216},"Blue"={"X"=9728,"Y"=4160}},"DefaultColorSpaceIsSRGB"=No,"NativeFormatHorizontalPixels"=2560,"DefaultWhitePoint"={"X"=20544,"Y"=21568,"Gamma"=144179},"SupportsVariableRefreshRate"=No,"AspectRatio"=15,"MinimumRefreshRate"=50,"WhitePoints"=({"X"=20544,"Y"=21568,"Gamma"=144179}),"PreciseAspectRatio"=115652,"ContinuousFrequencySupport"="None","SupportsStandby"=Yes,"NativeFormatVerticalPixels"=1440}

Even though the UUIDs are the same you can clearly see the "AlphanumericSerialNumber"s are not

"AlphanumericSerialNumber"="CN41201PZ4"
"AlphanumericSerialNumber"="CN41201PZN"

So this seems clearly a bug with how ever the UUID is created. The Mac has enough into to distinguish the 2 monitors

Ask HN: New engineer, already burnt out, what now?
I've spent the past several years teaching myself to code, telling myself that I enjoyed it as a hobby and that a well-paying job would just be a bonus. Well, a few short months ago I finally got a well-paying job! I'm not sure what or why or how, but it flipped a switch in my brain.

I think I've been gaslighting myself for years, telling myself I enjoy coding, forcing myself to spend my weekends and evenings doing it in the hopes that one day I'd be able to leverage that skill to advance my economic position. And so I did. I'm good at it. I don't have any specific complaints about my job or my team. But now that I'm finally here I don't feel happy like I thought I would. I've learned that I don't enjoy the process of software development. I don't enjoy writing code. I enjoy creating things, with writing the code being an essential but miserable part of that, and I'm not doing any creating now.

I don't like sitting and looking at a screen for 9 hours a day. I work from home and while I love that, I'm constantly getting up from my desk because I just feel so restless. I go to the gym but it isn't enough.

Moreover, and I hate to even admit this, I hate having to always be "on". I miss having an easy job where I could be essentially brain-dead. Every day I come and have to solve problems, but not the fun puzzles I was promised, not the execution of novel ideas or the creation or real value. Instead I dig through legacy code that was written in "start up" mode and have to figure out what Bob's function does that's abstracted 20 layers deep. I have to dig through an api's docs only to learn that a JSON key had the wrong capitalization in my request body. Ad infinitum. I could deal with constantly being "on" if it meant really solving interesting problems or creating something new and valuable. Instead I'm pouring my time and energy into what feels like categorically petty issues.

A big part of me wants to just quit and get a job where I can turn my brain off for 9 hours and then spend my free time dedicating my brain power to personal projects and actually build things. I've stopped all personal projects because after 9 hours at work, the last thing I want to do is sit in that chair for another second.

I'm making this post hoping to get answers to a few questions:

1. Has anyone else experienced anything like this? Am I crazy?

2. What can I do to fix it? Has anyone experienced this, and then overcome it?

3. Are there any fields that are programming-adjacent where I could leverage what I've taught myself the past several years?

My first impression is it seems a lot more useful then DALL-E, because you can quickly iterate on prompts, and also generate many batches, picking the best ones. To get something that's actually usable, you'll have to tinker around a bit and give it a few tries. With DALL-E, feedback is slower, and there's reluctance to just hammer prompts because of credits.

What’s interesting is the comparison- YouTubers can fit a niche that TV never could - specifically because they can produce content easier without people wandering off.

Though much of YouTube can be summed up as what was the three cheapest TV shows to produce - standup comedy, talk shows, and howto. The amount of YouTube sitcoms is a much lower number.

Not sure how this works under French law. But in the U.S., doing something that so blatantly shows intent would jump penalties to felony tax fraud.
Why a pentester and not a QA team more broadly? QA won’t necessarily review the code (haven’t met a team that did), but they will typically hammer a system with test cases and scenarios that expose unusual behavior and uncover bugs.

I’ve had pentesters review code looking for things like insecure hashing or encryption, or low hanging fruit like cress in the code, but I wouldn’t be inclined to leave what is essentially a QA process to a pentester.

If you have control over where your water supply is within the lake, and you're up for it, I recommend introducing lily pads, cattails, or watercress in the vicinity.

Lack of forests is also a major factor in this kind of torrential floods.

Similar catastrophes and landslides happened in Colombia or Brazil after removing the trees. Pakistan has many very high peaks that provide a lot of potential energy but only the 4% is covered by forests. Maybe is time to increase that surface.

Before the British invasion of the Subcontinent, Pakistan was part of the Mughal empire and held the seat of power in Lahore. Colonization destroyed local institutions and created a servile mentality in the populace towards the Europeans, the shadow of which still hangs over the populace today. The scale of colonization and destruction did its part in "setting back" the country.

Hopefully it’ll be a step up from a lot of the snake oil self care out there.
In most areas (though certainly not all), the difference was generally ironed out well before the advent of WebExtensions—what’s come since then has been as often surpassing as catching up.

Chrome was definitely a wake-up call, and the Firefox 4 cycle in 2010 achieved a lot. I recall doing audio stuff with the new Audio Data API (sadly since discontinued in favour of the much-more-complex-generally-for-no-good-reason Web Audio API) with a sine waves stress test (adding random sine waves together until underrun occurs) in Nightly, and watching the number it could cope with increase, week after week, due to JIT engine improvements. It went from handling a dozen to handling a couple of hundred over the course of two or three months.
What exactly are they giving back? They're taking a cut of your company using a MFN SAFE note, same terms as many seed investors. They just are investing a fixed amount into a very focused niche. It's a seed investment finance play, same story as happened in many other industries from small SaaS-funds to biotech to crypto to quantum and beyond.
That’s exactly what happened to the Magratheans in “Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy”:

What I would expect is what I actually have: you own the design and architecture of your own work, but you get feedback from more experienced people on your design proposals until they are in line with what the more experienced people would expect.
Hardly. As a dev, architects around me have no problem with me getting more insight into their work, and letting me do some things that are 'outside of my lane'. On the flip side, I can say that something is above my paygrade if I want to stay in my lane. Your ramifications statement is more of a reflection on particular company culture.

On the whole, lanes are created by companies to create a promotion flow so that people can always keep trying to climb the ladder. We see more flat organizations today, but as an organization grows to become huge, hierarchy is almost necessary.
You'd think. But really the issue is that you can't trust that you are actually getting borax and not something completely different (and cheaper).
The nice thing about this is that it's simple and works pretty much in any language so there's very little cognitive strain if you work with multiple languages at the same time.
I did stop using Amazon years ago except as an Aliexpress alternative after I found out about commingling. I moved my business to Best Buy/Costco/Target/Walmart/Home Depot/Staples/etc.

But the reason Amazon probably does not care about that because they have much better profit margin opportunities (AWS, Prime Video and Music, warehouse infrastructure as a service and delivery as a service).
