congrats on launching Kyle and Jacob (hi Kyle!)

wondering what kinds of projects are/are not suitable for this. the only context i have is from working at open source devtool companies that provide docker builds for people to pull down. might speed up the release process slightly. i suspect my company https://github.com/airbytehq/airbyte/ could benefit. but is it also useful for internal usage?
I know a guy who is currently homeless again. He works at Whole Foods and doesn't use alcohol or drugs, doesn't have a car and has a years rent in the bank.

He is one of the people I am very keen to help because he is literally sleeping in the park with screaming, violent drug addicts. He's told me he can't get section 8 housing or any other help as he has money. He has told me if he was an addict he knows he would be getting state payouts and 'help'.

He has lived in rented rooms in the past and I think a boarding house model for clean, sober low income workers is essential.

I was the first post on this thread. I feel we have to be extremely aggressive with the Honduran cartels who run the drugs into SF and sell them, and to triage people on the streets into appropriate facilities, including rural substance abuse recovery incarceration centers with appropriate services.

Once drugs have rewired your brain you are turned into a zombie that has been reprogrammed to do whatever it takes to keep the flow of your addiction coming. We have to break this cycle.
The hiragana and katakana and various versions thereof for each mora all share the same "primary" Unicode collation value. Adding a dakuten or handakuten creates a secondary difference: e.g. は (ha) < ば (ba) < ぱ (pa).

As between the versions for the same mora, they get sorted with tertiary differences as: hiragana comes before katakana, small comes before regular-size, and for katakana regular width comes before halfwidth. There's also a "circled" set of the katakana that sort after the halfwidth ones.

So they're equivalent (or not) depending on how you're doing the collation/comparison.
> [edit] I was misremembering Mode-X working like 4-bit VGA color mode, which is wrong. Given that the tiles are aligned it should be possible to write an entire tile without switching segments.

You don't have to change segments, but you do have to write to all 4 "planes". However, mode-x planes are interleaved bytes, not bitplanes. The first plane has every 4th (8-bit) pixel, the second plane has every 4th pixel shifted one pixel right, etc.

You can select any combination, so if all planes are selected, a single 8 bit write will write same value to a block of 4 pixels.

If you have some spare VGA RAM and have your tiles there, you can also use VGA latching to copy 4 pixels (32-bits) with a single 8 bit write. Should be a big win on a 286.
SMS, as well as app-based TOTP, are commonly phished (even with automated processes in some cases). SMS in particular is vulnerable to a SIM swap as well.
I haven't measured my typing speed pre/post, but I recall it being pretty easy to switch, and within a few days(?), my typing speed didn't feel like it was slowing me down. If you already touch-type 100% "correctly", all the keys are in the same places on each hand, so it's very easy--your hand is just in a new location, doing the same thing it's always done. I had a few keys where the "wrong" index finger was in the habit of reaching across the centerline to type it, so I had to get used to hitting those keys with the correct index finger, but that's about it.

Once you get used to split, it's no problem to switch back and forth-- I use both my split keyboard and my built-in laptop keyboard without problems.
This is exactly what is happening right now in Colorado.

1. Pay ranges are visible for a job. However, the ranges are very wide in some cases, almost $200k wide. What am I to learn from this if I get offered the mid point, but almost everyone else is earning the max limit? Pay ranges are useless without seeing the distribution.

2. Equity isn’t included in this (or any other govt processes) because it is not considered “guaranteed pay”. Especially in tech where equity is a big part of your compensation, it’s very hard to use this data in any meaningful way.
People don't consider productivity? Maybe things have gotten a lot better in the industry now. Otherwise, to rehash an older comment on HN:

I'd like to remind everyone about Uber's experience: no EC2-like functionality until at least 2018, probably even now. Teams would negotiate with CTO for more machines. Uber's container-based solution didn't support persistent volumes for years. Uber's distributed database was based on friendfeed's design and was notoriously harder to use than DynamoDB or Cassandra. Uber's engineers couldn't provision Cassandra instances via API. They had to fill in a 10-pager to justify their use cases. Uber's on-rack router broke back in 2017 and the networking team didn't know about it because their dashboard was not properly set up and what the funk is eBPF? Uber tried but failed to build anything even closer to S3. Uber's HDFS cluster was grossly inefficient and expensive. That is, Uber's productivity sucked because they didn't have the out-of-box flexibility offered by cloud.
But you can't actually give any examples? Ok.

I'll give you one you could have used - the GIL - however I'm not sure the GIL's semantics are really specified for Python, they're an implementation detail people accidentally have relied on.
As an aspiring author, I believe in paying for books to support authors. I may also believe that I own the books I've paid for. Take from that what you will...
That's likely to be involved in at least part of the solution, but you could still have the situation where everyone refuses to sell to developers (or enacts HOA-like contracts that forbid it).
Thanks! I actually don't have much experience with DALL-E mini/Craiyon, but I have heard people have taken the output of Craiyon and using it as the input for Stable Diffusion to improve the quality.

I've been doing something similar with some DALL-E 2 images: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33011336
Funny too, that you're posting an archive of that site, not the site itself.

One of the most impressive games I ever saw was Pinball Fantasies for DOS. Running at 60fps on a 286 with real music through the built in PC speaker was unheard of, like a real games console.
>For instance, shadow banning, by which a platform renders a user's posts invisible to all but that user, cannot convey a message because no one knows, except the platform, that it is happening

That's nonsense. Anyone on a heavily moderated forum can see that the "message" produced from proper moderation (things you can't see like behind the scenes spam prevention and banning) have a visible result in a higher quality forum experience. We literally see this here. Moderation is a choice, and by what things you do to moderate, you are making editorial choices that have outward effects. If you decide to shadowban any account not posting from florida, that will have an outwardly visible message that non-floridians are unwelcome. The first amendment makes no mention about the type of speech that congress cannot make a rule against.

Consider a store. If the Gay-Straight Alliance or similar approaches hobby lobby about some promotion, and hobby lobby says no internally, there's no outwardly visible evidence without affidavit from GSA and yet that's still a protected choice of Hobby Lobby over their own speech.
Even cheap mice from Logitech has something like this now (SmartWheel)
Oh interesting, thanks. So PIOPS may help even if we're not getting low on balance. Will dig into the docs some more. Thanks!
Not necessarily. Probably they already have pool of admins/devops that ran their systems for past 30 years, but have 0 AWS experience. Also, most companies don't need to scale infinitely, not everybody is building next google (in fact, almost nobody outside SV is).
The EPA declares a gallon of gas has 33.7 kWh equivalent. Electric vehicles are hella efficient, it's true, but this still looks on the face of it like paying $16.85/gallon for an "electric" gallon to me. It's absurd that gas costs 1/3rd as much, it's absurd that electricity would be so much more expensive.

OpenAI already behaves like big tech. Nothing gets done or spoken without PR, marketing, and lawyers having their say. Not a great signal for their future trajectory.
What makes you think they wouldn't?
I haven't heard it in a long time - I think it was mostly confined to people born before 1930, and there aren't many of them around anymore, but "what if I press the wrong button?" used to be a major concern people had about new gadgets. A lot of it came from the shift from appliances like old time wringer washers, where every control has a visible mechanical function or other affordance, to more automated "pushbutton" appliances with internal sequence "programs".
Dropbox is the only one I know of but as far as I know they have started migrating to Go. I guess they'll never fully migrate because they have a lot of code.
I haven’t looked at your site, but please, please, have a good export/bulk download option.

DocuSign and HelloSign are terrible in this respect. Just give me a simple, straightforward way (Ie couple clicks max) to dump every single signed document and their metadata so I can pass it to auditors. That would be a great feature.
I don't think that's universally true. But even if it were, you'd need far more people if you were to manage the infrastructure yourself than to just use AWS.
...or they screw it up, make it worse and worse, and less and less people use it, making it less popular, less chance someone fixes it, less people use it, less chance, less people, less, less, google graveyard.

Both google image search and "normal" google search are becoming more and more a pain to use, where you have to use quotemarks on pretty much everything plus a few excludes to find anything at all.
Yes, forums and chat channels have always been cesspools but at least forums (and IRC logs) were _searchable_ cesspools
Not so. Consider gay sex. Conservatives consider this to be "moral degeneracy" and seek to ban things like gay marriage or even gay sex altogether. Occasionally, conservatives will claim this is about protecting gay people from disease but this is obviously a lie because

1. they never exclude gay women

2. they don't actually follow through on other policies to prevent STDs in the gay community and even frequently consider things like HIV to be divine judgement

It becomes clear that the concern about "moral degeneracy" is not at all related to a desire to keep gay people from experiencing harm.

Similarly, the concern about "moral degeneracy" related to sex work is not at all related to a desire to keep sex workers from experiencing harm. Instead it is about "protecting" society from what they perceive to be evil harlots.
Any reason you couldn't have made the point explicit the first time? Were you worried that others' reading skills would atrophy if they only needed to read 100 words to get the point, and so you posted 400 words while still missing a critical block of 50?
Well, their layout is essentially a map from url to html, so cassandra would work well here.

MinIO is AGPL-3 though or commercial license. Pretty sure using it as cache would be considered combined work?
This. Completely. I have 38 yoe but I still encounter young people with fresh ideas. Keep that open mind. I have met some old engineers that turned into grumps (don't be one of them) but most of the older technical people I work with regularly find joy, both in their work, and through their coworkers.
My company is developing a digital signatures platform called Bulksign https://bulksign.com

We want to encourage broader use of advanced digital signatures and we are giving the on-premise version of this platform for FREE to any NON-PROFIT organization from anywhere in the world which wants it.

With droughts and up to 10l of water being used to make 1 sheet of A4 paper, i think natural resources are better spent elsewhere and digital documents and digital signatures should become the norm.
On desktop, Thunderbird works great as a client for accessing Protonmail, and it has those additional features like calendar and contacts and so-on. Not sure if there's a mobile option though, never looked.

I am displeased by Amazon removing the cellular connectivity, and was always willing to pay the premium to get it on new devices. Of course, on the Kindle 1 (which had page-turn buttons and a removable battery) 3G was the only means of connectivity (along with USB, if I remember correctly); wifi didn't come until later.
Unless your app is doing a lot of compute. We tried moving our workers to lambda, it was 10x the cost vs an EC2 auto scaling group

The problem with that approach (overcommit) in k8s is when oom killer kicks in your containers will die immediately and thus you can easily corrupt some internal state if not careful. Also it’s easy to accidentally kill wrong process group bc oomkiller will calculate priority based on memory usage among other things so outsized processes can be killed before lower priority tiny processes

It is a tradeoff. Whatever you choose will have its costs.

You need to know the tradeoff you are making but what I am saying is that, in most cases, it costs more to spend so much effort up front to be "cloud agnostic" than any benefits of maybe being able to switch cloud environment in a hurry.
Tried it - pretty straight up Figma clone - doesn't feel as polished but it's not bad. Nice addition to open source design tools.

Example of press for context: https://www.insider.com/epstein-maxwell-household-manual-ins...

From manual's page 8, under "Grooming & Guest Relations":

Remember that you see nothing, hear nothing, say nothing, except to answer a question directed at you. Respect their privacy

From manual's page 11, under "Answering the Phone":

Unless otherwise instructed, NEVER disclose Mr Epstein or Ms Maxwell's activities or whereabouts to anyone. If the caller is insistent, you simply ask to take a message, a time and a number, where the caller can be reached. Do not be bullied and do not show any reaction or impatience, simply be firm.
I don't know if it accounts for all 7000, but sales, legal, and support would account for quite a bit. Docusign is definitely a company that needs rock solid legal and support teams.
Because many things are only as PDFs. We can hate it as much as we want, it is like that.
> I always had issues with this particular counter, because it assumes that you cannot create a sufficiently good back door-creating AI/heuristic machine that can also fit in the unused spaces in our systems and binaries without being noticed. That’s a big ‘if’, looking ahead into the deep future especially that our knowledge of autonomous agents and storage keeps growing.

I'm the author of the DDC dissertation at https://dwheeler.com/trusting-trust/

If I understand you correctly, that doesn't counter DDC, as long as the system being generated is being covered by DDC.

If you're worrying about inserting code into "unused spaces" in the file that people typically call the "compiler", the solution is to check the compiler with DDC - that guarantees (given certain assumptions) that all of the executable can be explained by the source code. The source code could have malicious code, but developers know how to review source code.

If you're worrying about inserting code into "unused spaces" in other files of the larger system, the paper explains how to counter that too. Basically, treat the entire system as the "compiler" & regenerate it. More work, but now you've squeezed that out.

There's even a counter-example in the DDC paper. The tcc compiler had a subtle bug where 2 bytes were "free" (not controlled by the compilation process). That's because it was storing a 10-byte floating point value into a 12-byte memory area, leaving 2 bytes uncontrolled. DDC immediately detected a problem. DDC can detect 1 bit of difference. There's no "uncontrolled free space" for whatever is being verified by the DDC process.

Unlike most computer stuff, there's a mathematical proof in the DDC paper. If the assumptions hold, the conclusions necessarily follow. Attackers must take steps to invalidate at least one of the assumptions for the conclusion to fail. Of course, nothing is perfect - if an attacker subverts an assumption, then the defender can't rely on the conclusion. But the defender can take steps to make the assumptions true.
This is my understand as well. I have anecdotally heard swapping some of those dots from green to red can require up to CTO approval.
That doesn't sound reasonable at all to me. Unless you are building your own cloud service or doing something out of the ordinary (for which cloud wouldn't be a good fit anyway), the hardware you run on has absolutely nothing to do with your business. Take the shortest/cheapest path and move on.

To be fair to the Stack Overflow guys, AWS had fewer offerings when SO was built, so the comparison wasn't the same then as it is now.
Fujitsu Quaderno is one you can still get and is supposedly pretty good.
I have no problem.
That's the point of the comment I made. TSMC knows that Apple can't just jump ship to another vendor. There isn't another vendor that can do what Apple needs. Currently. As long as that is true, Apple is stuck at TSMC.

Apple could say that they will accept the 6% increase, but then lower their investment in new fabs 6%. I honestly don't know which number is bigger.
The locks are purely additive in functionality, they lose nothing compared to a manual lock. It still has a key for manual unlocking, still has the twist knob on the inside.

But now I can see the status of the lock if I'm away from home, and I can lock it remotely if necessary. I can give out a keypad code to a house sitter. Or I can let someone in real-time from remote.

All my 'smarthome' technology at home is this way. Nothing requires the Internet to work, and if the server fails then only the automation itself stops; all of the switches, locks, and such just fail back into working like any old school switch/lock/etc.
It is already something recuiters are suspicious about. I have had to justify myself and explain that I value my privacy a lot more than I care about likes and thumbs up.

Unfortunately short of "faking" it, I don't think there is a way to not look suspicious... pretty sad.
What constitutes a political ad?
The wikipedia article https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angstrom has some historical context: 'In the late 19th century, spectroscopists adopted 10^−10 of a metre as a convenient unit (...). However, they soon realized that the definition of the metre at the time, based on a material artifact, was not accurate enough for their work. So, around 1907 they defined their own unit of length, which they called "Ångström", based on the wavelength of a specific spectral line. It was only in 1960, when the metre was redefined in the same way, that the angstrom became again equal to 10^−10 meter.'
This is the end of third party browsers unless platform vendors are required to make a process to approve them for verification.
FYI the Kobo Libra 2 is just this if you don't need the Amazon ecosystem. If you do, you're out of luck for now though.
Depends. I am a decent software dev by all the standards I can observe. Yet I don't know a lot about number theory. I know a ton about other fields like e.g. control theory. If I now interviewed a django dev and asked them about control theory or hardware registers, I wouldn't even ask them whether they know that, because the answer is not really relevant to their position. I might ask them just our of curiosity, but then I would not care so much if they don't know it, I would care about how they handle dealing with something they don't know.

If they go all optimus prime that would be a red flag. If they show curiosity a green one.

This is a huge stretch. Austerity isn’t being called for.. stimulus is being criticized.
When you build software for a client that is a completely different game.

I divide this into two completely separate areas:

* advisory -- you advise your client on what is prudent in their circumstances,

* software development -- you produce software to client specifications, regardless of what they asked.

You can advise them all you want but then you do what they asked and that's it -- they are always right.
If that ever happened, the way you describe it, you'd also find my dead body the next morning. The autopsy would read like this "The cause of the death was forcefully ingestion of a full set of CDs with some strange 'Debian 1.3' markings, the poor fellow bled from within and suffered greatly in long agony". 25 years of open source hacktivism can't end like that, I wouldn't be able to process it. I'm Penpot's CEO BTW.
Aside form that, I can imagine that a completely unmoderated internet would look like the zombie apocalypse where the zombies are fast and smart. If you can't moderate a forum, then you can't ban people for posting animal porn on r/funny or nudes on facebook or youtube or take their posts down.

It would be a wild west for trolls, and finding a section of the internet where you could have rational and civil conversations like this would be like finding a cave where as long as you don't make too much noise the zombies won't hear you and come running.
Ideally, interviews should be a chance for both parties to learn something. Normally, this is learning about the position/ whether the position is a good fit.

In abnormal cases where it's clear the interview progress will go no further, hopefully both parties can learn more about something else. Technical domains, career progression tips, even different strategies for tackling a problem (just because your method is not going to work in the company doesn't mean hearing about it for ten minutes won't help).

That said, if there's a major mismatch between interview and resume, ask if there's outside factors. Maybe they just found out their dad is dying and were trying to tough it out through an interview. Maybe they're autistic and should have asked for an accommodation because they're fighting through a florescent-light-fueled-migraine. Once or twice that's been the case, and giving them a second chance on a different day was the right call.
