Exactly.

> In reality, the vast majority of his predictions over the past two decades have not come true e.g. saying China, Russia, and Canada would all break up by 2020.

Two decades? Is there some other source for these predictions other than the book series he kicked off 8 years ago?

The claims in his 2014 book are much more measured:

- Russia needs to deal with Ukraine by 2020 (one of his few concrete timelines, a couple years off)

- Increased Albertan autonomy will enter mainsteam political discussion (Danielle Smith)

- China will run into issues from an unstable financial system (Evergrande)

I think it's clear his background is not technical, he's more than a little hyperbolic, but I don't think he does as poorly as you mark him. Unless he has some other more aggressive set of predictions than the ones I've found, he still has a good 30 years before he can safely be called a hack.
I did the opposite, I just tell them to schedule on my calendar... I'll sit through you salespitch for $100/hr (https://www.starblazer.pro/#/bk/80jKqZYdBdeBd2J3uTdKIoqVgpk2?)
It would be very very expensive. Even proper Ethernet testers (not just continuity and pin tests) are expensive and it’s been around forever.
And sorry, one more thought: Canvas work can itself be abstracted with frameworks like OpenLayers or PixiJs or Unity. It's a testament to how powerful browsers have become that you can run full MMORPGs or other games in the browser. But that all depends on being able to download a huge Javascript bundle at load time, but then the rest of the experience is usually pretty smooth.

Games and maps are just an extreme version of that, but other examples where clientside DOM apps with heavy JS can still be faster (compared to old school server-side HTML) and easier to work with (compared to canvas) are email, e-commerce, ebooks, dashboards, chat, forums, video tubes, search and filtering, galleries, documentation, project management, etc.
Stingrays won't be able to give exact location but can determine who's cellphone is in the surrounding area and the signal strength of that phone. If you know who that IMSI belongs to, you could setup the Stingray to alert when the IMSI is near. Then you can drive around checking signal strength and send out an officer with a portable unit to literally go door to door checking for where the signal is strongest. Is it legal? Who knows. Cops can drive around with license plate readers automatically looking for certain plates or just cataloging them. Is a nearby phone being tricked into broadcasting it's IMSI similar to recording a publicly visible license plate? That's for the courts to decide. Cops can do parallel reconstruction where they set aside illegally obtained evidence and build up a new chain of legal investigation that arrives at the same conclusion. I suspect that cops aren't willing to gamble on their Stingray-obtained evidence being constitutional so the easiest route is just to use it as a guiding hand for their official, legal investigation and just never make it part of the evidence so it can't really be challenged.
Depends on your definition of profitable. Some of us are doing just fine competing in a market of 200 alternative services, you just have to find your own way of differentiating your service.

GitHub could never quite decide whether they want to be a social network or not. The "Trending" page (which has been useless for a long time due to the ranking algorithm rewrite several years ago) is just one example of this indecision. The way users can vote on issues with "thumbs up", "heart", "rocket", and "fanfare" emojis (instead of simply "up" and "down") is another, and the ridiculous "achievements" on user pages is yet another. They've also added and removed the "Social Coding" label several times from their front page if memory serves correctly. It's like the whole company is having a neverending identity crisis.

Spring Discovery | Software Engineers | Full-Time | SF Bay Area | ONSITE or REMOTE

Spring Discovery is accelerating the discovery of therapies by empowering scientists.

We're an interdisciplinary team of biologists and technologists developing a new approach to scientific analysis – one where machine learning, great software, and cross-team collaboration is at the heart. We apply these techniques in partnership with other biopharma companies to search for drugs, and we also license our software / technology to other scientific teams.

We're looking for software engineers to help continue building software products for science. You don't need a bio background – just a desire to learn and make a difference.

Get a sense of some of the technology we build and the promising results they've uncovered by reading our blog posts:

https://www.springdiscovery.com/blog/megamap
https://www.springdiscovery.com/blog/multi-disease

We're fortunate to have great backing from top investors, including General Catalyst, First Round, Laura Deming's Longevity Fund, Felicis, Caffeinated Capital, Sam Altman, and more. You'd be joining an early team (ex-Google, Khan Academy, CZI, Freenome) and would have a ton of ownership.

If you have a top of the line M1 MBP but the hard drive is 2TB, would it make sense to plug in an external hard drive for the 4TB model or would it render the effort futile due to performance issues?
Shorts is really half baked. Almost all content i consume on Youtube is in english, but shorts surprisingly ignores that and show content native to my country (most of the time irrelevant). It boggles my mind how YouTube can screw up something as basic as that.
I don’t agree that tenant protection and increased supply are comparable solutions that can be swapped out. Ideally you’d have both.

Chopping CO2 emissions into tiny pieces of a pie and then making a point of how small any particular slice is a traditional way of fooling ourselves about it.

Also, civil aviation emissions have larger warming impact than just the CO2 emissions would say, as the radiative forcing effect is dramatically multiplied due to what happens high in the atmosphere - see eg https://csl.noaa.gov/news/2020/287_0903.html

(May not apply as much to GA due to lower altitudes and/or combustion properties of different fuels and engines)
But they weren't? You can't just discount Reels having worse content.
Definition of 'succeed': Greater fool theory. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greater_fool_theory

Start company, let's call it "GreaterFoolTheory Company."

Get many investors.

Lose money right and left but the business "has promise" even if losing money.

Owners sell GreaterFoolTheory Company. for $5 billion to a bigger company, let's call it "Spooge-gle."

Success for me, made billions from selling GreaterFoolTheory Company.

GreaterFoolTheory Company keeps losing money as a division of Spooge-gle.

Spooge-gle's stock price goes up because they have acquired a company with "promise" and Spooge-gle "growing" through acquisition. Purchase price of GreaterFoolTheory Company is drop in bucket for Spooge-gle, and it extremely small percentage of company.

Spooge-gle closes GreaterFoolTheory division but does not mind because they have purchased more money-losing companies with "promise" and these new companies make investors not notice the original purchase of GreaterFoolTheory failed, or doesn't mind because Spooge-gle has so many hot new companies - and so Spooge-gle's stock price goes up.

Stock price goes up so investors' portfolios goes up. CEO, CFO, CMO, COO's paychecks go up vastly because stock price goes up and their contracts reward them if the stock price goes up.

Success for Spooge-gle, Spooge-gle's investors, and Spooge-gle's C suite. Win-win all the way around.

Know the game.

Any questions?
The shorts recommendations are indeed awful. I get solely stuff I really would never watch; I get woke videos or teens being insecure about their lives, neither of which is relevant or interesting to me and YouTube knows that as the normal videos they recommend are usually not bad. And checking quickly now, most of them have the TikTok logo on them. So I agree: it will probably be removed or get worse instead of better.
The model is 4GB, not 4TB
So I guess me checking that page everyday wasn't enough to make a difference. :'(
How do you get a /48? Tunnelbroker? Can you set external IP per request? Curious how this works.
Well, as a non-US person I like that not all my PII is concentrated in US companies. If anything, I feel that US having something on me can have worse effects on me, compared to China, given the amount of US/western stuff I use.

Truework | Software Engineers | San Francisco, CA | Full time | Onsite or Remote (US) | https://www.truework.com/careers/

Truework is hiring 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 on track to handle millions of verifications annually for fintech and lending verticals. 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. We just closed our Series C funding round 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.
I'd also like to see a Firecracker powered EC2 (with some constraints, of course), but ~6s provision time of current EC2 is already pretty awesome and TBH I don't care about 6s for CI things much.
I tried the five most recent messages I received and it worked as expected for all of them. I imagine that I'll encounter some that don't work, and at that point I'll try adding more examples to make the model more robust.
For eggs it does matter - just 30 seconds extra cooking changes the texture of the yolk. It's actually hard to get the perfect yolk, you need very exact timing, most people seriously overcook eggs because they'd rather that than raw.

The yolk is supposed to be set, but just barely, and not dry. This is especially true for egg salad where the softer white and creamer yolk dramatically improve the flavor.

If you Google you'll find plenty of photos of yolks at various stages of cooking so you can see what I mean.

Yep I use this trick all the time:
- Put them in already boiling water.
- boil for 7 mins
- then take them out and keep them under a running tap of cold water. You want the water running so it gets maximum heat transfer.

I think it might be to do with how the shell and membrane have difference expansion coefficients. Or the membrane and the egg white. Not sure.
I've got an ancient Yamaha 5.1 receiver with no HDMI. I'm sending it audio from a Raspberry Pi4 behind my screen through a cheap USB 7.1 audio card using regular RCA connectors. The extra 2 channels are duplicates of the stereo input (using pulseaudio) and get sent to a stereo amp that goes to 4 ceiling speakers in the adjoining room. I've found that far more reliable than spdif. For example, I can download all of the Dolby test files (including their latest Atmos stuff) and I get 5.1 audio from my old receiver. Using spdif I don't.

yeah, i'm really disappointed in the overall level of responses tbh. there is definitely strong biases. from those who work a lot or those who own business or just a have a dogmatic capitalist view.

its hard to find a middle ground, as people in power are unwilling to shift their expectations.
I was so geniunely happy with my 16GB iMac M1 until stable-diffusion released.

I was amazed at how fast and powerful it was. I thought this meant I could stop buying top-of-the-line Macs every 4 years and start buying bottom-of-the-line Macs every 5 years. And that would have been 100% true... if it weren't for stable-diffusion.
An actual scientific experiment would have like recently fallen away Amish teens compare these apps having never used them.
A few more came to mind:

- Two senior members of the FDA resign as a result of the politically pressured decision to recommend boosters, despite a lack of a safety profile and subsequent risk analyses having been laid out

- Monoclonal antibodies were downplayed as a treatment for COVID during the Alpha and Delta waves, a time during which they were incredibly effective, and a surplus supply was available in every state...unbeknownst to the majority of the public. The pretense for not mentioning treatment options was that knowledge of a viable treatment might discourage vaccination.

- Anthony Fauci lies, under oath, regarding the definition of gain-of-function research, whether it was being done in Wuhan, and whether or not the NIH had been involved in funding the research

- Merriam-Webster changes the definition of "anti-vaxxer" to include people who are opposed to mandating vaccinations, a completely different concept altogether from people who are opposed to the use of vaccinations.

https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/anti-vaxxer

- FDA pushes to allow Pfizer to release the safety data they gathered on the vaccine over a period of 75 years

- At no point in the United States were any vaccine recommendations made at all tailored to the developing safety profiles which diverged in accordance with demographics (i.e. higher incidence of thrombocytopenia in women from adenovirus vaccines, higher incidence of myocarditis in young men from mRNA vaccines)

- Booster recommendations left completely open ended for those who received adenovirus vaccines

- Entire point of going with a novel mRNA platform was on the basis of being able to rapidly iterate to keep up with an evolving virus. We are about to see our first update to the vaccine, just now, with an already dated antigen targeted
Damn, right?

I remember being 4-years-old and unsupervised a lot. By 6 years old for sure. By 8...."Get out of the house and out from under my feet and don't come back until dinnertime! Now get out!"

It's a different world.
I was lucky enough to live the fascinating journey from PC speaker to AdLib, SoundBlaster, SoundBlaster AWE64, Roland LAPC-1 (what a f#^n piece of hardware!), Yamaha SW60 and Gravis Ultrasound. Glory days!
I don't know. If you look at the swan song of big aviation piston engines just before turbines took over (immediate post-WWII era), it was all air-cooled radials. If the WWII experience would have proved liquid cooled engines to be superior, I guess all those Convairs, Constellations, DC-6's etc. would be using Griffons, Sabres or such.
I am living in Switzerland, in a rather good 20k town, I get out of my building, I see 2 permanent drug dealers. And there is a constant stream of news about murders or tentative ones. Oh and we have judges who are protecting rapists, e.g. saying they were looking for being raped, yes an actual judges, fuck that shit.

Our era is just different.
Agreed, it's also how I keep my finger on the pulse of languages I enjoy that I'm not professionally using at the current moment and also to keep up with niche domain specific languages as to where and how they are being used. Boo!
i think it's a matter of perspective, this is why i said its relative.

80% of 5 days sure. but if we had 3 days weekend, then in 20 years or 30 years, 4 days would be considered 100% of your productivity.

in the same way people thought you cannot do your job remotely, but we saw how easy it was actually, despite the issues some extroverts and managers have with it.
I live in another EU country, that in 5 years I could easily see being as this article describes Portugal. I'm not sure if it's the same in Portugal, but this is only really accurate for major cities in my country.

Smaller cities and towns are cheap. I've seen government auctions selling apartments for under €5000 which nobody wants. Why? Because people are moving to larger cities. People want opportunities, and the idea of working in some chicken factory (which may have been a perfectly respected career for our parents) is not appealing for the current generation. And the problem in these small towns, is the chicken factory is really the only career prospect you have, so people move elsewhere.

Of course there are rich foreigners buying apartments as investments and renting them on Airbnb, but that's a very small percentage of the housing market. And even if they rented them normally, they'd still be asking for prices that are unaffordable for the average person. I know that because that was me, I emigrated here and bought a luxury apartment and lived in it for 7 years (paying taxes) and now want to rent it out as I moved outside the city.

Unless I rent or sell it for much lower than the market rate, even on the lower end it's still too expensive for the average person. If I sell it, it's probably just going to be poached by someone who will use it as an investment and put it on Airbnb.

My city is building a lot of new developments, but space is limited as young people want to live close to the city center, not somewhere 30 minutes drive away. That is driving up the average price, so you end up with studio apartments costing upwards of €4000/m2, which you need to earn at least €2500/mo to afford, which is well above the average salary. With rising inflation the problem isn't so much people can't afford the mortgage payments (which are slightly lower than renting), but they can't afford to save the 15% needed for a deposit.
USB _is_ a well-designed hardware plugged directly into your PCI bus.
Personally I don't want shorts on YouTube.

I use and like you tube for longer content. If I wanted short content I would create an account with instatok and tikagram or whatever the next thing will be called.

Every week or so I have to go through and click not interested on all shorts suggestions.

I second they need an option to hide. I've sent feedback to YouTube numerous times and I know others have, but my guess is it will fall on deaf ears as they try to keep up with the current cool kid.
> and the audio enthusiasts moved on to external DACs and $2000 headphones

While good studio-grade audio monitors are available for less than $200 (Beyerdynamic DT990 Pro for example) I don't see what a soundcard offers that an external DAC doesn't. If anything most soundcards I find are quite lacking some much needed features compared to most DACs, which probably is the answer to your question.
yes i think you put it more succinctly what i was trying to say.
I’m interested in changes that happen to open source libraries that I care about, but I don’t understand the social aspect beyond that.

By the way, you mean uninterested :)
In your alternatives considered section, you didn't consider a single mainstream Thinkpad or Dell laptop ? At least the gen 3 Thinkpads with Ryzen seem pretty good, although configs and availability are hit or miss.
