Noticed this increase in response with this method as well, while I was applying a couple years ago.

Seemed to work really well specifically with city government jobs (New York), based on the response/application ratio. I'm guessing it may have to do with their antiquated systems.
I'm fine on my investments, thank you.

Since silver is often the byproduct of mining gold, the energy price should be pretty close, I'd think...

Crypto-bros reinventing the (train-wreck of) labour theory of value is my favorite genre of HN comments.
That's to make the phones less of a theft target (for parting out). It's a tradeoff, but one most people prefer.
I am Ukrainian so I will explain.

Russians do not consider us a separate nation and consider our language a "broken Russian". They are in fact trying to erase our language and our culture. They call anyone who considers themselves Ukrainian and not Russian a "nazi" that should be killed. This is a genocide.
very interesting. I usually just google things when i need them.

What do you mean when you say "user group events"? is this like in-person meetups or is it something else?
For bash users who are tempted by zsh interactive "fuzzy" completion, here's my take on it: it's directory-aware (offering different suggestions based on your history of commands in that given directory), pure bash code using sqlite to store data: https://github.com/csdvrx/bash-timestamping-sqlite

The only other dependency is fzy for fuzzy matching.

My trick for soldering wires to PCBs is to put a large blob of solder on the pcb, tin the wire (with a bit more than you normally would) and then just heat the joint/wire and am done.

I run my iron really hot (750F/400c) and just get in and out. I use a curved conical tip and have never have had issues with this technique.

What you want could be two feet in front of your face, but you'll basically kick rocks and say, "Fuck this, I'm going home"?

Yes, I absolutely will do just that.

And then, because you "don't have time", you'll wait an additional 24-48 hours?

I don't have time to waste wandering around a store looking for an employee. It's not usually the case that I specifically need the item right now. In that rare exceptional case I'd stick around and find the employee, but that would definitely be the exception and not the norm for me. For me, if I go into Home Depot or somewhere it's more likely that the store was on my way home from work, I had a vague notion that "I need a new tape measure" or whatever, so I stop and go in. In that case, I have NO problem walking right back out if they make it hard to buy the thing I want.

Also, just to elaborate, if there are other things I planned to buy while in the store, I may well go ahead and go get those (assuming they aren't locked up as well) so it's not necessarily the case that the entire store visit is thrown away because one item is locked up. But they definitely lose the sale of that specific item, barring the aforementioned exceptional case where I absolutely, positively, must have it "right now".
Yes! You hit the nail on the head. It's also a lead by example thing, where I love seeing more experienced folk asking questions.

Where do you work if you don't mind the question?
> Not only is that a logical fallacy (appeal to authority)

Most things that are called that are not.

This would be a fallacy:

1. World’s best player (to have ever lived)

2. Therefore his opinion is correct

This on the other hand is not a fallacy:

1. Ditto

2. Therefore one should take his opinions on this matter extremely seriously

It’s not fallacious since it doesn’t pretend or present itself as a derived fact.
I believe it's a reference to President Roosevelt's ["Fireside chats"](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fireside_chats) radio addresses during the 30's-40's

Putin treats Russians as his property, but money from gas goes directly into his
and his friend's pockets. His friends he listens to.

He also uses these money to arm police to keep population at bay.

There's also some weird pride he takes in having gas.

May be something else is in play here, but I don't think how this can be benefitial to his cause.
The use case I'm referring to is where someone (in this case, me) publishes code intended to be run on Cloudflare Workers or self hosted with workerd.

Reasons you'd write first party code targeting workerd would be a different question.
Debian dash is useful to keep my scripts honest.

Busybox actually takes dash, and then sprinkles a few bash/korn features back onto it (notibly, not arrays).

If you want a lot of people to use your scripts, getting them working in dash can help a great deal.

The POSIX mode in bash exists because bash itself predates POSIX by nearly a decade.
Ask HN: How to learn and avoid being overwhelmed at job?
FWIW I’m a senior engineer at this big tech company. I’ve always been pretty confident, but I started this new job 5 or 6 months ago and just can’t get the hang of things.

Things move quick and the domain is new, my confidence is dwindling which is causing me to become a recluse. How can I get out of this bubble and learn effectively without feeling like 300 things are constantly in my working memory?
>As the article shows, in application code we are multiplying...

The article is wildly misleading.

I just checked out the godot code (git version c2f6664, today), and checked to see if what the author wrote and you believe actually happens in the code. It does not. Not even once. Didn't you find it odd that the author took two different codebases to make an argument between them instead of simply using one codebase?

Here is what I find:

First, avx_mathfun is not in Godot, nor is sin256_ps, nor is anything like it I can find. Feel free to find it and post where it is in godot.

The function sin is called 347 times in c, cpp, and h files. The function sinf is called 25 times. Of these, only 50 are scaled by tau in some direction. So right there it's terrible to optimize the other way.

And here is the kicker. Not a single one, zero, nada, called a function like the contrived sin func the author wrote about. Every single one called std::sin.

std::sin resolves on different architectures to (often) a hardware instruction or code like this from glibc (used on most x86 machines). Note this implementation, likely far more widely used than any other (since it's the code in GCC), does not use the method in the code the author posted.

For cos and cosf the result is the same (with a little changes in the counts since some audio filters use more sin or cos than the other): cos occurred 370 times, cosf occurred 41 times, only 52 of these involved tau (again the majority has no tau on the front side), and of all these, again zero get passed to anything other than hardware std::cos.

So this pretty clearly demonstrates for this codebase that changing scale as the author wants would make the code less, not more performant.

Didn't you wonder why the author searched on tau alone and didn't compare to the tau cases? Or why he then jumped to a sin/cos approximation not in the original code? And why he didn't mention how prevalent hardware sin/cos is?

So, do you now believe that changing scaling is going to make code perform worse, not better?

Where do you live Andorra or Lichtenstein or some place like that which has like 10 people? I can't imagine any country that has some decent amount of people not having agencies who would be capable of doing stuff like this.
They could be fully technically capable but unable to secure those jobs because of visas, location/timezone, the company having a prejudice against outsourcing/remote work, etc.
Ehh I conflated two points really initially by bring up the objection to the burnout labeling, which is your side-track.
No. Initial goal was to occupy eastern Ukraine. There was no government in Kharkiv, Ukrainian south and such.

Stop repeating Russian propaganda.
That's no different from the case where two companies with common shareholders compete with each other. A company is not beholden to increase the net worth of any particular shareholder. If a shareholder owns shares in companies with conflicting interests, that's that shareholder's problem.
Be very careful when doing this. Technically speaking, Asset Protection could arrest you for shoplifting between the router bit display and the cash register if they spot it. Similar to popping AP tags off of items before purchasing them.

From the comments:

Yes, this will result in a cold join that will be unreliable.

Thank you for appreciating the article; I tried to disclose all that I could!

1. Yes, I did put my own money in it (low 6 figures).

2. It went as described in the article - for the capital I allocated to Didact, I beat the market (SPY) by ~20% since inception.

3. If I understand your question correctly, this would be the equivalent of the payoff on an optimal lookback option (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lookback_option). I haven't actually done that analysis, but it sounds like a nice idea.
USA being the obvious suspect would only be a problem if people believed this to be a bad thing. I’m from Poland, Europe, and I’m really happy about those pipelines exploding, because it clears a major strategic problem, and I suspect there are more people who feel this way.
I get your point re distigmatizing mental illness, but why have we accepted the medicalization of normal emotional and cognitive aspects of human life? I don't understand how things like fear, frustration, or sadness have ended up being subsumed within the mantle of "mental illness" in the first place.
I could easily see it being that we are otherwise happy, making sex less worth the effort to obtain. Or porn. If I have a sexual itch, I just go to porn.

I am someone who in my mid 20s has never had a relationship. Not worth the effort to me.
Yes, at this point I see technical keywords in a job posting as accumulating into a set of reasons that I wouldn't want to apply.
This looks like a recipe for cold solder joints and solder bridges and doesn't seem like it saves time.

What you really want to do when you have dozens of jumper wires is to do an array-of-struct to struct-of-array transform on the steps. Instead of cutting, stripping, tinning, and soldering one wire at a time, cut all your wires, then strip them all, then tin them all, then solder them one by one.

Here's a pro tip: when you tin the wires, lay the iron flat on your workbench with tip out into air and tin by laying the end of the wire on top and then adding the solder.

Another pro tip: use a pair of needle nose pliers to bend the tinned leads by a little over 90 degrees to make a little hook. When you solder to the board you can apply a little tension and let the solder flow into the hole. Makes very string solder joints.
It’s actually interesting if you look at the data, outside of the tech bubble Religion is only projected to grow due to a confluence of factors which include much higher fertility rates and increased mental health (might be coupled).

Religion of old is gone in some bubbles and more than thriving in others.
Interesting parallel. I think I'd disagree that it's considered "fine" when company's do it, though.

What the OP describes is basically a version of a "bait and switch" fraud, which is pretty widely illegal and not considered OK by anyone. Although you can find examples where people ride that line pretty closely[1], but even then people think it's bad behavior.

A subtly different thing that's maybe closer to what you're talking about is hiring contractors and then blaming them for problems. A current major example being many of the Amazon-branded delivery trucks that only deliver for Amazon, but when they do something wrong "oh they're a subcontractor, not Amazon's fault!"

So, not sure I agree 100%, but I understand the anger.

Show HN: Third Room Tech Preview: open decentralised worlds built on Matrix
Hi all,

We just launched the first public tech preview of Third Room: an open source, standards-based, decentralised vision of interoperable virtual worlds for the open Web, built entirely on Matrix - without cryptocurrencies, NFTs or walled gardens.

It's built on an new opensource game engine for the web called Manifold, which provides a solid 60fps of fullscreen 3D thanks to multithreading across webworkers using SharedArrayBuffers and Atomics, using Three.js for rendering, bitECS as an entity component system, Rapier for physics and Hydrogen for Matrix chat+networking. It requires no servers other than your normal Matrix homeserver.

You can play with it at https://thirdroom.io or hop straight into a world like https://thirdroom.io/world/#terra-1:thirdroom.io. The code is all Apache Licensed up at https://github.com/matrix-org/thirdroom. We're hoping this provides a much-needed counterbalance to the Big Tech visions of the metaverse, or ones which are entangled with decentralised financial incentives, and might be a genuinely open platform for building spatial web/metaverse apps in future.

Feedback welcome!
Yes people, including those on HN, use the word infinite to mean very very large as opposed to the mathematical definition of infinite as a set that contains a proper subset with equal cardinality. Doing a Google search for uses of infinite on HN will reveal just as much, for example people complaining about websites with "infinite scrolling", or that the Fed has printed an infinite amount of money recently, or that software can be copied infinitely many times, or someone claiming that their friend has an infinite amount of memory.

In all these cases, they are using the word infinite to simply mean very very large.
If this is a realistic failure mode, one would hope that there is some kind of rate-limiting at the firmware or driver level.
nice one - and saying that right next to Scholz. what I'm wondering is - what would even be the incentive to Russia? there is no gas flowing anyway and they would be the first to have it going again while in total control how much gas is going through it at any moment in time. also it gives them bargaining leverage if gas is flowing. why would Russia do that? if they want to mess with German energy on a meta level they can just play the "turbine is broken"-game again.
Were you paying any attention at the beginning? Russia attempted a capitulation strike aimed at Kiev from the north and northeast (including an airborne operation) at the same time as starting a shock and awe campaign with ballistic and cruise missiles against every major and regional city.

That was their grand plan. Take Kyiv in 3 days and subjugate the populace which is >90% hostile to you. Absolute madness. Dictator syndrome to the fullest. Only a chain of lies going to the top could have led Putin to believe it was possible.
Big companies might get the benefit of CIA spying on transnational bribery, but small business - where most US jobs are created - is left swinging in the wind.
Interesting - psychologically this super annoyed me that my year old iPad Pro couldn’t do this. Glad they have made it possible!
Broad interpretagtion of zero trust to me... seems to be ZT application or workload only... not ZT network, device, identity or other aspects... am I wrong?
I have not read this PDF (nor do I intend to), so perhaps this is something it mentions, but a shift in perspective along Stoic lines and identifying some irrational confusions might help. At base, the biggest problems are ego and attaching inappropriate significance to what people think/say or might think/say.

Of the two, ego is the biggest problem, I would say, and the first one that needs to be addressed. The typical reason someone might not want to ask a question is because they are afraid people will think they're stupid because asking reveals you don't know something that you believe is expected you should know. If this something is something you should know, then are you perhaps pretending to be better than you are? Are you trying to prevent people from forming an accurate opinion of you, an opinion that you deserve?

With respect to the second problem, people attach way too much value to what others say or might think instead of the truth. We all think things about each other. So what? Life is a bazaar of ignorant and cranky people assessing, misassessing, yammering, squabbling, haggling, making noise, elbowing each other, and so on, not some preciously arranged crystal palace or the last judgement presided over by a capricious teenager. No one is thinking about you because they're too busy thinking about themselves...just like you're doing by worrying so much about what others think of you.

There are ultimately two possibilities. Someone's assessment of you is accurate or it is inaccurate. If it is accurate, then what's the problem? You deserve it. If it is inaccurate, then it doesn't matter because it isn't true. In either case, if you are treated unjustly, or even uncharitably, then who's the asshole? Not you. As Marcus Aurelius would say, as long as you're going the right thing, you have nothing to worry about. You've done your part. You have no control over anything else, so why worry about it? If you don't ask the question, then perhaps no one will think you're stupid, but you will have failed to done your part by choosing to remain ignorant when all you had to do is ask. You would be guilty of what Catholics call "human respect".

The experimental result has not been refuted, the whole issue is that some scientists are claiming there isn't enough information to attempt to refute it.
I'm all for accepting evidence when it's there. I do believe humans have been highly mobile for our entire history. Hell, the ancestors of Aboriginal Australians migrated to both Australia and Madagascar, proven by the fact that Madagascans are genetically much more closely related to Aboriginal Australians than Africans. The debunking of these glyphs are quite thorough, and looking at them as a lay person they look quite fresh. There's even a local known nearby aboriginal site that is 250 years old and looks it.

As for the mastodon, it's news to me, but I'm highly suspect of any positive findings. I believe humans were in the Americas before the widely touted 14,000 year mark. There's solid evidence that Monte Verde in Chile could be 30,000 years old, but maybe just 14,000 years ago. But either way that's far into southern Chile begging the question of when did humans really first arrive in America. But as I said, 130,000 years ago? I'm skeptical, and so are most anthropologists from what I'm seeing
The lengths this guy will go to, to deny his country's ethno-fascist roots. Russian-exceptionalism is a hard drug to come down from.
That's true, but I would argue that any runtime with custom green threads is.
I didn't mean to propose there should be a single standard. But for Javascript oriented FaaS, you really will have a hard time finding a better paradigm than the one they've settled on for Workers imo.
Unless you did one of the gazillion things that was permissible in 2001 but is now considered insecure and was patched out of all the major browsers. Not saying that making browsers more secure is a bad thing but it's definitely not true that every 20 year old web app will work flawlessly on a modern web browser in 2022.
The OP uses single stranded wire but the solder blob on the PCB creates far more surface area contact for heat transfer from the iron which makes a large difference with stranded wire. When you're soldering hundreds of connections, the time savings from not having to pin the wire against a solid surface or clip it in place is substantial.

The bigger problem is that all the rosin flux in the solder will have evaporated, likely making the joint very weak. Most DIY projects lack any form of strain relief so it's a double whammy for any wire that will shift around.
Are you willing to give up the reason for your secrecy? I'm not sure what you stand to lose if you just say "I saw some traffic to NSA headquarters every 10 minutes that coincide with access entries on my SSD"
As an IC, I've even gone the extra step of buying a small light ring off Amazon, at my own expense, to light my face better because my room is always a little dark on camera.
how does Russia benefit of destroying those pipelines, though?
>So we can see the 35 members in this Slack, but I don't feel comfortable posting that list. I have no idea who is real or fake and who may be working for this company unaware of what is actually happening.

>So I sent an email to two of them after I found them on LinkedIn to further help investigate this. One immediately responded unaware of this behavior occurring and left the group.

Although I admire the authors restraint, I am more than a little unimpressed with one of the contacted being "unaware" of the behavior. "Excuse me, did you know you're in a group that is actively committing crimes?" How do you think they're going to respond?
Yeah, it's not good for Brazilian Portuguese. It's always using Portugal Portuguese (pequeno almoço, teu dia, etc).

Is there a way to do this on mobile? Probably not an easy one, but if mobile Safari had an extension, I'd install it immediately.

The worst is when you use the top edge of the screen to read, but the site has a navbar that only shows up when you scroll up. So if you scroll slowly upwards, the navbar creeps slowly downwards, and keeps hiding the text you're trying to read. Thankfully such design choices seem to be getting rarer.

Do sticky headers measurably increase conversion rates, or is it a fad? If there's data to support why people keep making this decision, I guess I could be persuaded to feel that it's not a case of "Everyone likes to do it their way, and you like your way."
7GUIs and SkyMass
7GUIs tasks implemented in SkyMass.

SkyMass is a cloud UI server [1]. It wraps up much of the complexity in building modern web apps into a cloud hosted UI service that is accessed through a simple high level API.

7GUIs [2] is a set of UI programming tasks to benchmark programming different languages and frameworks against each other.

The cool thing about these demos is that the tasks are completed in 20 - 120 SLoC, compared to ~5-10x as many SLoC in other languages/frameworks.
