A vast amount of Quake source code was famously released under GPL (though without much of the maps/content). Nevertheless, the contents of the engine and sheer genius that went into making it cemented John Carmack as one of the most prolific developers of his time. Quake 2 was already a vastly impressive title for the time, digging into the technical details gave it a whole new angle of appreciation for computer scientists.

YMMV, though. The Quake release worked for a few reasons:

- They used a GPL license to prevent other companies from poaching their work outright

- The source code they were releasing was arguably quite sought-after, in both gaming and programming communities

So for that particular scenario, everything went alright. Even as a free software advocate I'll admit that there are places you could run into trouble, but historically, open-sourcing your work can really help lend credibility to impressive technology.

> First and foremost, at this time – Figma will remain an independent (separate from Creative Cloud) company. That much was said in the announcement from the CEO, Dylan Field.

lol yeah right.
From their analysis, the cause of the cliff is explicitly deaths due to drug overdose.
> Why the hell would anybody sane, especially with all knowledge average HN user has about government overreach and greed, hacks, 0days, bugs etc. ever put such a critical item as banking app on their phone?

Because it's convenient, and security is a trade off with convenience. I use banking apps on my phone, and I suspect many (most, even) people here on HN (and who are technically savvy in general) do as well. That doesn't make it smart or good or correct, but I suspect that is the status quo.

I haven't traveled outside the US since before the pandemic, but these days I may only travel with a burner phone the next time I do so.

> Phones are not secure

Neither are laptops or desktops, or anything, really. Everyone needs to decide for themselves what level of security they're willing to accept, and what their threat model is.

Did the S&P drop by 80% or more in those recessions?
Is it possible to perform mTLS from client->APISIX gateway and pass on the verified certificate details to the upstream (e.g. via headers)?

Or is mTLS only possible with client->pass through APISIX->upstream? It's not quite clear from the docs.
If the goal is to increase the GPU vRAM (which I believe it is, given that's the constraint on image size), the answer is "not really" for consumer cards. You need NVLink bridges for pairs of PCIe cards (which they have, but then you'd only double the vRAM), or NVSwitch on the high end data center servers (DGX/HGX A100).
Inducing some chemical change is so broad as to be meaningless. "Chemical imbalance" is at least a claim, and GP was right to question it before going way off the rails. To address that: major mood disorders are caused by something, and it isn't the decisions of the sufferer. Those can make it better or worse, sure, but to even entertain the idea means you've never encountered this in the wild.

Treating something with a chemical doesn't mean what you were treating is a chemical imbalance. If it's vitamin C and scurvy, yes, if it's ulcers and antibiotics, no.

No one thinks bipolar disorder is caused by a lack of lithium. The theory of chemical imbalance is just a theory, one I don't happen to think has much going for it.
Anecdotally it looks like it's impossible to write good graphic design software without serious money for multiple employees.

Penpot seems to be funded by an interesting and unusual Spanish incubator. That's better than I expected, but still not great given there isn't a clear good path to profitability.

Sure it's open source, but there's no way I'm taking over development if they stop. That means them stopping their subsidy of the open source software is as bad for me as Adobe raising Figma prices.

Pretty pedestrian given the others, but I'm trying to build a file server setup that makes it easy to roll back from a ransomware (encryption) attack. I starting to think that going with hourly syncs from the home directory with some versioning should do it. The hard part is to make it easy for someone to rollback when I'm not here. People are a bit scared given that its happened to a couple of other small colleges. We already do tapes and we are talking files saved to the servers (most folks aren't allowed to save locally), so it should be within a budget. Like I said, pretty pedestrian. [edit: FreeBSD & ZFS]
I got a FTW 3080ti for my new PC a few months ago so I am very sad to see them exit the market. I worry about my current card's warranty though, will they still have 3080tis in storage in 2-3 years if I get unlucky and my card dies...

If you don't do any of those things you aren't required to do age verification. This is only a problem for those websites that want to do things they shouldn't be doing anyway. What am I missing?
> Everyone thinks this is illegal

I agree that declaring and executing race targeted layoffs should be illegal.

> you’re giving the CEO the most optimistic end of the spectrum

No. I think he's honestly trying to say "One particular kind of biased layoff hurts one group more than another kind of bias so I'm trying hard to make sure there's no bias", albeit poorly.

I'm definitely pessimistic that he can achieve this even if his intent is to be completely impartial. There's also a chance he has no intention of being fair which I agree with you should be illegal, but I don't see evidence of that yet and just assuming malice is presumptuous.

Like can the journalist at least dig up 5 X-race guys who got fired and 1 Y-race guy who didn't and then say "see?" Nah he just went straight from Press Release -> Pitchfork mob without any legwork.
Can confirm, this museum is huge and a must see if you're interested at all in planes (don't even have to be that interested, there's plenty of cool stuff there). And free admission, also.

I looked it up, and it looks like the Boeing X-36 and Bird of Prey[2] mentioned in the article are in this museum. They have a lot of experimental aircraft there, including a flying saucer[3]. Also you can walk inside four different Air Force Ones[4], which I thought was especially neat and interesting.

There's more than enough demand for GPUs with gaming, video rendering, and machine learning that R&D will continue without crypto mining.
I don't know what that's supposed to mean. I got CPD to track down a mugger whole my phone; they were arrested less than 15 minutes after I got mugged. The arrest happened at J&J Fish in Austin. The police clearly had control there.

At the same time, there are drug corners all over the west side; there's a gas station in Humboldt Park on my commute that is occasionally an open-air drug market, with dealers literally out in the street doing traffic control. I'm sure that's shocking and upsetting to very in-the-know west siders who own liquor stores. Will CPD really engage over small groups of people selling heroin on a corner? No, I doubt it: I see the same groups day after day on my drive into the office.

Those parts of the city are not safe to be in. It's not OK that there are parts of the city that are not safe to be in. I'm not making excuses. But that absolutely does not describe the area around the McDonalds HQ, or, for that matter, almost anywhere in Chicago that middle/upper-middle class white people live.

Don't they already make motherboards?
Well they only rebrand Seasonic and Super Flower so they should be very good products. I currently run a G6 1000w unit (rebadged seasonic) and hope to use it for the rest of this decade or more.
Ask HN: What jobs will be big in the future that don't exist yet?
I'm writing a kids' book for my daughter about future jobs. All the books that she currently has talk only about current jobs (chef, firefighter, librarian, etc etc). I'm putting together a list of future jobs that she can think about (space mining engineer, neural lace technologist, prompt engineer, etc). I'll probably throw some jobs in the list that exist but are still rapidly growing, like data scientist.

Fun ideas appreciated!

I submitted this the other day but it didn't get any traction: the Protecting Data at the Border Act[0] is a thing, but has barely been touched by the relevant Senate committee since it was introduced nearly a year ago. As expected, it's not perfect: it has some carve-outs, and only applies to US citizens (and maybe permanent residents; I forget the exact definition of "U.S. person"). But it would definitely improve things. Maybe something to bug your Senators about.

When I was younger I used to absolutely avoid it, I could just about put up with a fast food place by myself, although I would prefer a drive through where I could sit in my car. Anywhere you needed to be seated and ask for a table for 1 was pretty much out.

I definitely felt a stigma from eating alone, it doesn't matter how small that stigma was, or even if it was just in my head. My insecurities were amplified by social anxiety. I was single, not by choice, through lack of success mostly due to anxiety / insecurity. I felt like everyone seeing me as a young man eating alone would notice me and instantly leap to the correct conclusion I was unhappily single (and the incorrect conclusion I had no friends) and judge me as a failure.

I am now older, married with a young child, a chance to eat alone at a restaurant would be a rare welcome opportunity, but asking for a table for 1 is still a little uncomfortable for me.
I know most people won't notice me, or care in the least bit why I am there. The server will have probably severed 100 lone diners that week with various reasons for being alone and I will not stand out from them in any way.
The logic of that is mostly irrelevant and has limited impact on how it makes me feel.

I'm contributing to a data streaming processor called Benthos: https://www.benthos.dev/ It's written in Go and I really love the project since it's so simple and, unlike most Apache projects, it's just one single static binary which does the heavy lifting and it's stateless.
But still somewhere in the single digit percent, I think.

The march of technology is responsible for almost all of the cheapness of TVs, and niche commercial targeting is responsible for the non-cheapness of other TVs.

Hisense has a $430 TV comparable to that $2200 model but with better color. Tracking, I dunno, might be $50.

Housing is terrible on CL. Bot farms take past listings from sites like Zillow and apartments.com, cut the rent to a deal that seems too good to be true, then when you are interested you get connected to a "missionary traveling abroad who just wants their place taken care of." They will even be happy to rent to someone who is not yet in the area, which is otherwise really hard and expensive to do. All they need is you to wire a deposit and they'll have a friend deliver the keys......
How can this be carbon-reducing? That sounds like a dubious marketing claim.
I've run large bike lane/car-free streets campaigns before [1] and have talked with a bunch of activists from groups all over the country, so I have a good deal of experience here.

You're right that these problems are political—in fact, they're entirely political!—but the reason they're so political is because there's no existing platform for capturing latent + kinetic demand, so electeds (even the ones who want better streets—we've heard from many of them on Twitter) have absolutely no idea how much political support they have—and they need that support to take bold action. We're solving that problem!

Wow!
I gave up on CL years ago when the apartment rental lists for Amsteram became overrun with obvious scams. I would flag them, but it never seemed to matter.

Then also because of the Backpage disaster they stopped all the person to person (dating or hookup) groups. It's a shame too, because I actually met some good people in the past on those groups.

So on one hand, they over-moderated by eliminating whole segments of their site while apparently ignoring other segments which became rife with garbage ads or outright scams. And once the real audience finds wading through garbage to be too much effort, we leave and the site becomes irrelevant.
Because they moved to neighborhoods where they were allowed to get fucking home loans and open businesses.
Cool idea. Tried to join your waitlist but the form throws errors. Could be my security measures, but I’m on mobile safari, toggled off all content blockers and still had an error.
I worked at an MMO game company and the only testing we had was manual QA for functional testing and bot clients for server stress testing. Not a great environment for building quality software. (Our max server uptime was about 24 hours.)

The client had a secret level with all game objects for testing and debugging. But reading your post makes me see that we didn’t think ahead far enough: the secret level could have been the foundation for automated unit testing game objects and battling characters.

I haven’t watched them yet, but I added these relevant videos to my YouTube backlog just this week:

We are already at a stagnating point in GPU speeds, with the most recent generations from NVIDIA simply being pump more juice (watts) instead of big design changes and efficiency optimizations.

I don't believe R&D funds will dry as well, since they will simply be relocated to AI and datacenter workloads which have been on the rise more recently.

You don't pay $20B for a $400M revenue product with 1200 employees to pay if you're planning to keep things as they are. Best case scenario is that they accept that figma is superior and let Xd die instead. That said, they'll definitely change pricing and spend eng resources on integrations with their other crap. Oh, and you'll need an Adobe account for sure.
Is it sensible that Google went on a hiring spree in 2022 while all other tech companies had already started to freeze hiring? added an enormous-for-them 30,000 new employees in a quarter, then asked all employees how to fix "productivity", and finally decided to cut down on research teams (~100-200 people?) that represent less than 1% of the new employees they added in the previous months.
My experience has been that Lithium is still very widely prescribed for bi-polar disorder as well as BPD (borderline personality disorder).

It's not that there aren't alternatives, but they are much more hit-or-miss in terms of efficacy. Lithium tends to be more predictable in terms of keeping things stable, but the side effects are awful.
That all depends on the time points you are comparing to. 1 ETH now is $1400. 3 years ago it was $180.

Will you accept a description of the effects of fentanyl from a government website?

https://www.canada.ca/en/health-canada/services/substance-us...

"Mental effects
Fentanyl causes:
dizziness
confusion
going "on the nod" (being in and out of consciousness)

Physical effects

Besides strong pain relief, fentanyl produces effects such as:
drowsiness
slow breathing
nausea and vomiting
smaller (constricted) pupils
itching or warm/hot sensation on the skin"

I think the mental effects cover what was shown in the videos provided by the other commenter.

Here is a video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uVtvp59xue4&t=884s&t=14m44s) of someone "nodding off" or doing the "Hastings Shuffle." There are two people being interviewed who said that's what they look like when they've taken heroin. They went on to describe taking fentanyl and almost dying. Fentanyl is an opioid like heroin but it's much more powerful. If you don't die or overdose, then you'll be shuffling around.

This video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kgEdyvxwcvQ&t=5m45s) has two examples of people injecting drugs at a safe injection site and appearing to "nod off." One slumped over a chair around 5 m 50 seconds and another around 6 m 10 seconds.

edit to add another video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F1ojeXgyAu0&t=2m8s this one is fucked up but shows someone injecting and then the after effects. They think it's heroin, but the narrator says it could be fentanyl and they can't know for sure. Around 3:30 is the after effects.

Probably not convincing because you don't really see what the drug they are using is and you don't see them stick the needle in their arm or press the plunger.

I don't have crime stats because they don't arrest people for drug possession or even giving it away for free where I am. (https://www.straight.com/news/vancouver-police-department-de...)

There are lots of mental health problems and other contributing factors of people who use street drugs, including using drugs that aren't pure. We have coroners reports on deaths with fenatnyl and other drugs in the deceased. https://www2.gov.bc.ca/assets/gov/birth-adoption-death-marri... But that doesn't discuss the behavior. I don't think the behavior is solely attributable to fentanyl, but it does contribute to a fair bit of it since it's in so much of the supply.

Anyway, there is lots out there if you're interested in searching more.

Craigslist is proof that you do not need to occasionally “refresh the look and feel” of your website or app.

I have a real chip on my shoulder for the occasional design team that seems intent on justifying their own existence and nothing more.

I’d love to learn about big user studies that concluded with, “don’t change a thing. It’s good as is.” Surely that case must be appropriate some % of the time. But I think when you’ve got a hammer you just see nails and work for you.

Basically financial identity theft and fraud combined with breaking and entering — there’s no need to makeup new names for simple combinations of crimes.

Long list for crimes people commit using Craigslist. Another similar one is for an attacker to post saying your moving of the country, out of town, already removed everything you’re not taking, but asked neighbor to leave the door open and anything in house is free to take; then they simply know when you’re away, pick the lock, leave the door open, and post the listing. Unknowing strangers rob you OR have a plausible explanation of why they are robbing you.
I’ve recently gotten deep into thinking about “precision medicine.” Folks here may remember or know the story of Matt Might; I have a less sad but similarly perplexing story around both my wife (for whom diagnosis was hard) and my best friend (who remains undiagnosed), and started thinking about how to apply “whole systems” thinking and treat the body as a system that’s prone to vulnerability, trying to find ways to discover where a “patch” may be necessary by ingesting lots of data that is otherwise overlooked or seems unrelated.

As a security guy previously, particularly on the offensive side, this has been a fascinating endeavor thus far.

I’m particularly interested in: the application of PRP injection to various ailments in the body (where else are there oceans of stem cells we can activate to help the body heal itself), and the application of ML to surfacing data about ailments for populations that are woefully understudied (trans patients undergoing GAHT, for example).
