> not that [YC is] ripping you off

Indirectly, YC quite possibly are ripping most founders off financially, even though the average company return is high (power-law — few winners and many losers[1]). It is hard to find good figures, because we have reliable dollar estimates for the companies that win, but a paucity of information about the founders that lose, or what individual founders made[2].

When YC only selects the best 1 of ## applicants, it is hard to remove selection bias from any later analyses of returns for founders.

Value and opportunity-cost are messy, so measuring the returns for “loser” founders is really difficult. I am unsure if founders’ own self-assessment would be trustworthy information.

Here is an analysis from 2014 on YC founder returns: https://80000hours.org/2014/05/how-much-do-y-combinator-foun...

I would expect early employees to have worse odds of good payouts.

[1] startup valuations tend to fall along a steep power law curve and YC startups fall along one nearly perfectly: https://medium.com/swlh/on-300b-of-y-combinator-startup-succ...

[2] company returns are easier to find than individual founder returns.
Honestly the first time I've ever heard of them.

Idk how accurate it is, but you can gauge the sentiment (mostly positive, mixed, mostly negative)

This boils down to why most NFP's fizzle out. They're usually used by founders and participants as a launchpad for careers or companies.

If you want to have a family you basically can't live in a small cramped apartment in the city. That's why families with kids move out and people commute like crazy.
Same as with how to be good at coding: perform a lot of it, in as many different contexts as reasonably feasible.

The finance arms of sales teams however, like the teams that assemble “no interest” parts of the deals, I was no fan of. There ain’t no free lunch, and the linguistic gymnastics they went through were a waste of my time to parse.
This right here is exactly it: my number one use of incognito mode these days is when clicking on YouTube videos that have been linked from somewhere else where I'm trying to keep their content out of my recommendations.
Yes, the paper linked elsewhere in this thread introduced counter-cryptanalysis, for both MD5 and SHA1:

"Counter-cryptanalysis in principle enables the continued secure use of weak cryptographic primitives."
Talking with recruiters again and can agree.

The worst experience so far was for a general full stack role. They sent me a 3 page long PDF of job "requirements" which was a lot of fluff and implicit stuff. I get it... but I think that can be reserved for later. Not the best offer, seemed like they were disorganized in general, etc.

The best experience was for the best TC offer _and_ most relevant position for me... they sent over half a page that didn't waste a single character. Named a few frameworks but they had a crystal clear idea of what they needed. It was amazing, lol.

Most vertebrates and invertebrates have some symmetry. The moon and sun are symmetrical, as are most flowers. The horizon on an ocean is uniformly flat from a sufficient distance.

The definition of ‘perfection’ is almost certainly culturally-dependent, but it’s not completely unreasonable to suggest that humanity is hardwired to be drawn towards some common aspects.

The server instances are currently set to 100 people, up from 50 earlier this year. Not sure where you got “a couple dozen” from. It’d been at 40-50 for years, IIRC.

Interestingly, when they increased the size, performance increased, because they were running fewer instances per server.
Thanks, I had no idea. This is great.

Oh, I didn't even consider this given the seemingly-singular premise (paragraph 2 after the quote) but I think your explanation is more likely. Thank you!
Nice strategy. I’m eager to try this out.

Would anyone care to recommend a piece of software that will allow me to build maps showing relationships? Something akin to a mindmap with nodes and a web of interconnections. I’d like to build a map of businesses and relationships in my industry. Something I can add to over many years.
Again, I really appreciate the feedback. So regarding the video, if I understand correctly your suggestion is that use-case driven videos would be better?

You make a great point regarding the tutorial. Where would you want to see it? In tutorials, or would that be the first page you would want to land on as a developer?
That is indeed their goal - this kind of targeted harassment is done deliberately to collect more personal data of the user.

This tactic is quite common among BigTech and something I've experienced with both Google and Amazon - once you are hooked onto their product, one day they will suddenly deny some aspect of their service to you and force you to share more personal data with them to get access to it. For example, Amazon will one day start to ask you to click a link sent to your mobile to access their account, or Google or Microsoft will block your account and ask you for your mobile number to "verify" you etc. When you are blocked from using a service suddenly, however privacy conscious you are, in your desperation you will be forced to comply.

I have experienced this with CloudFlare too once when many website were suddenly blocked for me by CloudFlare on all browsers and I was forced to install their extension to access some information I needed from a website urgently. I have no doubt in my mind that even otherwise, they just deliberately and randomly blocked access to some sites and displayed their "captcha" page just for PR and "brand awareness". Now that CloudFlare has realised this is backfiring on them because of the negative emotions being associated with their brand, they have now redesigned their "captcha harassment" page to give less prominence to their branding than before.
The issue seems to be specifically about authentication of proxies. Something I could never find a good extension for in the past.

What I ended up doing and found to be better is to connect to the proxy over a wireguard IP. I can recommend this solution to individuals and people who don't need granular authentication.
If they are spinning rust, then a drilled hole is sufficient against most forms of data recovery. A plastic syringe full of CLR Calcium Lime Rust remover injected into the drilled hole will finish the job.

If money is not a factor then it's a lot easier and faster to take them to a shredding service. [1][2] Shredding disks regardless of spinning rust or SSD will make data recovery nearly impossible.

No, I am telling you what the problem is with having the rate set at zero, which is what I have been doing the entire time. Using your terminology, you don't get extreme measures initially, you walk yourself to extreme measures because everything you change does not hit your goal rather than just calling it a day when you hit the inflection point where the costs of your policy are roughly equal to the benefits of your policy and there are no obviously better uses of your limited resources that you should be doing instead.
This paper [1] claims that with their implementation they can get an AQFT (approximate QFT) with sufficient precision to factor RSA-2048 with < 0.01% error probability using 2083 qubits, 364,510 CNOT gates and 196,234 T gates, both of which can be error corrected.

[1] https://www.nature.com/articles/s41534-020-0257-5

Just because textbook QFT requires ever increasingly precise gates does not mean that this can't be worked around. If you want to do useful quantum computation you have to embrace error bounds, precision loss and probabilistic computing, which makes it quite difficult. But not impossible.

I successfully used functional programming with DI and it was quite pleasant!

Because DI is just “give me the dependencies I need when I declare I need it” you can use simple classes as scopes similar to CQRS patterns and continue doing functional programming from there.

It’s quite neat how you can interchange between the two and have it work rather nicely.

Technically, you could even do the same thing with closures and avoid OOP style classes all together even.

DI lives on, it just looks a little bit different than the constructor injection we’re used to seeing in OOP.
Everyone has different requirements for what their computer should do. If I want to play flight simulator at 4k at high framerates, or VR, etc there is still room for faster cards.

It's not for everyone, but that doesn't mean that games have remained the same for 5 years, or that there's no reason to upgrade. If you don't want to, go ahead, but there is definitely appetite for faster cards.
I really like the form factor of these. I need to remember to look out for one of them to hack on.

>We know that someone could take the Headscale code and try to compete directly with Tailscale, but we hope they won’t.

I think Tailscale has a reputation that would beat any rando trying to do this, but given the history of open source usage at a certain large cloud platform, is there any reason they wouldn't offer a rebranded service using headscale?
Fortunately the idea of WASI is for it to be modular. It makes sense for them to have the APIs required to make porting existing POSIX-ish-compatible apps easy, but there are also WASI modules (I forget the proper name) in the works for much more general IO objects etc. that better abstract away the underlying OS if you're willing to invest in that.

So I guess you could summarise it as: backward compatible-ish first, and then figuring out what a neater, more idiomatic world would look like second.

It's a pragmatic approach to bootstrapping the ecosystem, and there's no need for the POSIX-alike parts to hold anyone back, at least long term. Pretty soon you will be able to write apps that target WASI that end up reading and writing files in practice without the app even knowing what a "file" is (the runtime can just hand it an abstract IO object). That's a step beyond just not knowing about things like symlinks, and seems to me like a more "web-flavoured" future that can work even for CLI/desktop apps.
True, I'll add it.
Agreed. I would like to see an update. The private colleges have increased their tuition on an inflation adjusted level at a pretty linear rate (See Figure CP-3 on #1). It's the public Four Year institutions that made the big increases, both correlated with the 01-03 recession, and the 08-09 recession. Since 2014, nameplate public institution tuition has been largely flat (same figure).

Additionally, net tuition at 4-year publics actually paid by students has been almost flat or down over the last 15 years (see Figure CP-9 in #10), with net tuition plus room/board up slightly, due to increases in rent not fully controlled by colleges (same figure).

The same applies at private non-profits, flat to negative net tuition, and a moderate increase in tuition+room/board (Figure CP-10 in #1).

The answer is very clear. When states cut funding per FTE student, tuition rises to compensate. When state funding is flat or slightly up, tuition stays level (Figure CP-11A in #1).

All citations from #1, the best data source I know of for college tuition pricing data: https://research.collegeboard.org/media/pdf/trends-college-p...

If you want to look at it on the expenditures side, which should balance with revenue for non-profits, that data is here, and also shows moderate increases in spending: https://nces.ed.gov/programs/digest/d20/tables/dt20_334.10.a...
You can always stick to pure PromQL only, to keep it compatible. Or maybe some day Prometheus (now Grafana) devs will pick up the extensions and introduce it to PromQL.

We bought our retirement home about eight years ago and a couple of years later, moved my mother-in-law and my mother down. MIL was not happy we made her leave her house and friends but she was getting older and had more problems and we needed to be there for her more. My mother was much more understanding but it was a common topic of conversation in my family.

Maybe 11 years ago my dad was diagnosed with cancer and I made the six-hour trip once a month until it was clear that the end was near and then I stayed with my mom and dad and then just mom for several months. I'm glad I was only six hours away but it's also far enough to miss important things and to not be there to support family as they need to be.

I'm glad we made the decision to move the moms. Them getting old and needy is hard enough without distance and trying to figure out what the hell is going on!
The two products have nothing to do with each other, Surveys is (was) for market research and it finds participants for you and it charges per response. Forms is a free general purpose tool for forms you send to contacts you have.

You appear to be confused by the similar names only.
I noticed that when youtube implemented the auto-play feature on the homepage, whereby you hover the mouse over a vid, it expands slightly and starts to autoplay the vids, that it actually puts the vids in to your watch history, even if you only watched a few (2-3) seconds. After this i noticed that my recommendations got crappier almost instantly. Basically, I would see something with a 'nice' tumbnail and hover it. Since then, everytime I open youtube, i need to go into the preferences and disable that shit, so not to pollute my history, and thus pollute my recommendations. I clear cookies when browser closes and this setting doesnt get saved, for some reason, google isnt smart enough to save these settings / preferences to my account like all the other setting, oh no, its controlled by a cookie.

This may have already been scailed back abit since I first noticed it, so maybe not 100% accuarate anymore, still pisses me off.
You are talking about compressed sensing which is not lossy compression (compressed sensing can be lossless unless you're dealing with noisy measurements).

But say you're doing noisy measurements, and you are under-measuring like you say, and you have to fabricate non-random non-homogenous reconstruction noise. In that case it would be a very good idea to produce, as they do for lossy compression, both the standard overall bit rate vs. PSNR characterization against alternate direct (non-sparse) measurement ground truths (that have to exist, or else the reconstruction method should be called into question), and the bit rate for each particular sparse measurement. So this way people can see how reliable the reconstruction is. Ideally the image should be labeled at the pixel level with reconstruction probabilities, or presented in other ways to demonstrate the ratio of measured vs. fabricated information, like 95% confidence-interval extremal reconstructions or something.

It's not clear that community is doing this level of due diligence, so then the voices here are right: it's not a good idea to use.

Having run an over powered desktop to enable my gaming hobby, I have been toying with putting a "thin client" on my desk and my beefy rig in the living room.

Computer performance has felt ~stagnant for the past decade. Given the number of platforms that build to be mobile friendly, there is increasingly less need to be constantly running a power hungry rig as my main configuration when I am spending most of my time browser the internet. If I want to "desktop game" I could stream from the living room to my desk in the event it is not a controller friendly experience.
A witness (Jay) testified at the trial that he saw Hae Min’s dead body in the trunk of Syed’s car. He stuck by that testimony when he was interviewed later: https://theintercept.com/2014/12/29/exclusive-interview-jay-...

Forget the feels and focus on Bayesian probability. Hae had left Syed and she winds up dead shortly thereafter. Just statistically, it’s almost always the ex husband/boyfriend that killed her. Jay’s testimony clinches it.

That would seem so right? I thought so exactly too. This works when your engineering team is small. But once you go beyond the first level of engineering and its mostly maintenance and updates, the people who apply for the job are not interested in learning new things. They have learnt one thing and want to apply that skill 9-5 and go home. For those roles hiring for react is easier.

>At the most basic level, in Rust you cannot overload operators

I gave you a working example of operator overloading in Rust a while ago.

Why do you still state that Rust doesn't allow that? Is there a problem with the example?

I know a lot of different languages and have a feature matrix for reviewing them, and I would know if operator overloading didn't work since it's a row in there. It definitely does work in Rust (it's similar to Python's operator overloading).
