Jeez, I'm surprised these guys are still around. Pretty sure they're from the old 2016-2017 crypto days. The dApp era.

It always interests me how these older crypto companies think... what do they think about what crypto has become?

The older I get, the more I believe this is the truth. For most institutions we've been taught to hold in high regard.
Context, I’m bipolar, not SzPD, so may not fully understand.

Relationships don’t need to be based on love. You could seek out someone who is looking for someone to share responsibilities with. Imagine them as a coworker or roommate.

If the relationship works well, you might want to formalize it to get the societal benefits marriage can provide.

Most people can’t imagine this working out because they don’t want or function well in that kind of relationship.
I used PostgreSQL for my wedding website. People could RSVP, say how many were coming, volunteer for support roles since we did too much of it ourselves, etc.

It was overkill and I loved it.
Yes, but it's almost certainly not legal for Apple to aggregate across multiple apps while not allowing for other advertisers to do the same.
Yet they do it themselves :)

It's a smart business decision. Basically "If you want to have deep tracking on users using iPhones, you need to go through us".
Good Pair Days | Senior Product Manager | Australia | REMOTE (AEST +- 3 hours) | https://www.goodpairdays.com | AUD $120,000 to $180,000 + Stock Options

It's our mission at Good Pair Days to disrupt a powerful and entrenched industry and liberate the world of wine from the aloof, the exclusive, the confusing, and the pretentious. To open up the joy of wine discovery for the novices through to the aficionados, by reimagining what the wine retail experience can be for one of the oldest consumer products on earth.

To give you an idea, one of our first products is something we like to call "Spotify for Wine". We like to think of it as providing monthly wine adventures, customised to each member's unique tastes (powered by ML), delivered to their door. Where they can learn as much (or as little) about their wines each month as they like.

The best way to understand how we are different from other wine companies is going to our website, taking the quiz and exploring some of the unique features we believe we offer. The CEO and CTO have been sharing the responsibilities of a product manager and we're looking for someone to take the lead there.

You can email me directly ("beto" at our domain name specified above and the subject line as "From Hacker News | PM Remote | {your country}").

Please note, this is a full-time remote position within the AEST +- 3 hours limitation.
Thank you. It’s a perspective I understand and accept. I’ve seen those last sparks flare up unexpectedly on several occasions and it’s a true gift, honoring both giver and receiver.
From my POV the companies were happy to see people experiment with their designs and SoCs but they just didn't have the resources to put the necessary amount of customer support forward.

In my many argumen^H^H^Hdiscussions with RPi users here and elsewhere, the counter-argument for Pi has always been the community support is excellent. And, yes, it is. When you aren't large enough to get a TI or NXP FAE to answer your email then having a robust community is great. But it was built ground-up from all the RPi fans having the object in their hands and little else to do with it.

When TI dropped OMAP I left for Freescale, now NXP. I've been developing on i.MX for well over a decade now and have really enjoyed it. Their foothold in automotive has allowed them to keep growing the line and branching it out in different ways, more so than TI or Broadcom will.
That is less so now that factories are more automated. The factory I used to work at (not in, but same building) bragged that within 3 months everyone had done every station once. While a little productivity is lost because of experience, the boredom factor means less people quit and so overall they do better

While it's great at compressing the image, it's PITA to work with until browsers support it. What's strange to me is that it's the format Apple uses by default on iOS, but even their own browser doesn't support it (!?). So when a user uploads a picture from an iPhone, you either have to load up an extra JS library (~1MB size last I included one in a web app) to process it or upload it to a remote server for processing.
That's what I thought too, but then the stock price imploded.

Ask HN: Good content for learning computer science?
I am speaking specifically to the subset of people who learn stuff as a hobby and know the excitement of finding a good youtube channel that has lots of videos on advanced stuff without dumbing down. I know its a rare person who relates to what I'm talking about here so if you're reading this and you have some good sources that you've liked in the past please share. I like security stuff, systems programming, networking stuff, but will settle for anything generally computer sciency that is good quality. Thanks :)
This is what we're talking about:

- Company F was doing ads using X mechanism on Company A's devices.

- Company A banned X mechanism under the false claim of "privacy."

- Now Company A is going to use X mechanism to launch their own competitor to Company F's platform (because X is what makes the ad platform a worthwhile expense for advertisers; Company A already uses X mechanism to market its own products and services to its customers, and they simply banned Company F and third parties so they could eliminate existing and potential competition.)

Or in other words, almost as textbook an example of anticompetitive behavior as you can get.
A related problem is multi-cloud orgs trying to copy this advice into other clouds. For example, at $dayjob, the cloud guy is trying to replicate the AWS account structure into Azure, where it's largely unnecessary. In Azure the equivalent of an account is a subscription, but then there's a second hierarchy level in the form of resource groups. Combined with tagging, this makes it very easy to do internal charge-backs or RBAC.

They've even added a feature to redistribute the costs of shared resources: https://azure.microsoft.com/blog/simplify-financial-reportin...

Splitting things across accounts or subscriptions is complex and results in all sorts of strange limitations. For example, some resources can't be connected to each other across subscription boundaries, so you have to duplicate them.

Another example is Kubernetes (EKS or AKS). The typical thing to do is to create a single cluster with multiple node pools, all in the same account or subscription. Then this is split using namespaces. All of this will be in one account, and can't be "associated" with other accounts or subscriptions. The second a shared platform like this is introduced, the fine-grained account model breaks down.
In my experience when you leave something you carry “doingness” inertia. If you carry that into a motivated and structured activity then you might have a great time, especially if you find others who want to do the same
thing.

If you dump your “doingness” into something that doesn’t feed back into your social connection or reputation, like playing video games alone in the middle of the day while everyone else is working, and expect Gandalf to drop in and send you on an epic quest, you’ll find yourself adrift at best.

From what I’ve seen, most people who find themselves lost do not have a “one and only dream in life.”
I could related to this person and article a lot. I've had similar thoughts, give up the tech job craziness and go drive Uber for a few months and not have to c check email and slack 24/7!
If your cost of living is actually that low, a $15/hr job at 40 hours per week would net you more than that. I think your best bet is to get any job that leaves you with time to finish your degree.

You are competing against a lot of people and just like any job that has some knowledge/skill necessary, you’ll need experience. You may want to try temp office types of jobs, or entry level call center/helpdesk types of work. This would allow you to possibly pivot into jobs related to software or software directly and at a minimum start building a network.

This has been possible for many years now on Android and that has yet to been an issue, even though it's been brought up for years as a potential concern.

It turns out that people (or at least Android users) aren't as dumb as Apple users think they are. (Or maybe it says something about Apple users that Apple and other Apple users think that Apple users are too dumb to be able to make this decision for themselves?)

I've had drivers who were renting cars to rideshare because their other one was totaled. These are often financially desperate people. Its a predatory situation. You need work and there's this entity handing out work on your own schedule, seems almost too good to be true because it is. Factor in that rental, factor in your car payment, factor in the tires, the maintenance, the gas, the newer model car you need to have for the job, the phone you need for the app to work, the cellphone plan to make that phone work for the job, the health insurance you need to pay for on your own, the unpaid breaks you have to take to pee or eat, and it probably doesn't look so nice.

Traditional shift work low skill labor jobs like fast food are honestly a better option. These days some fast food places are providing benefits, not to mention a path to management and therefore a higher wage. It's not like uber or lyft will ever promote you from driver.

That's oddly superior/hostile. I was vaguely familiar with the format as the choice on recent versions of iOS. Now I know HEIF is a container, and HEIC files indicate that the codec is HEVC. And I know it's part of MPEG and, to my surprise, is more efficient than JPEG. And it made me think, are there generalizable cases where JPEG still wins? Maybe I'll look into it. And all that from a few seconds. I appreciate the submitter.

Edit: And now I'm learning things from other commenters who have been inspired to provide interesting tidbits they know about HEIF!

After having direct experience with the following SFF systems, I recommend in order of descending preference (most to least):

* Gigabyte Brix - size, performance, features, expandability, longevity

* Chromebox (Asus) - size, performance, expandability, longevity

* R.Pi - size, support for Debian, longevity (I confess a particular fondness for the Pi 400)

* Odroid - size, performance
Agreed. I love the idea of not negotiating pay all the time.
Show HN: Get automatic size recommendations while shopping online
Hi there!

Allow me to introduce Ember, a tool to help your online clothing orders fit perfectly.

We’ve all ordered something online, only for it to arrive and not fit. Sometimes we expect it and so order a few sizes of the same thing. Actually, about 1/3 of all the clothing ordered online is returned, and half of that is due to poor sizing. Dealing with those returns is a huge waste of our time, not to mention the losses from unsellable garments and round-trip shipping.

Ember’s goal is to eliminate returns altogether. It’s a Chrome extension that takes a set of your measurements, compares them to the garment dimensions (schematics for each piece of clothing made), and then selects the size most likely to fit you best. Right now, it works on Everlane.com, and I plan to add more stores with time.

Usually, you have to sign up and share your measurements to use Ember. But, I made a test account so you can easily give it a whirl. Simply use the credentials below, navigate to Everlane.com, and see for yourself :)

Idk about the European job market, but in general the CS Masters is pretty useless. That time is far better spent working in industry, in pretty much every dimension.

The only time it's worth getting higher degrees in CS is if you intend to go into academia, or a certain subset of research-heavy roles (research in AI, quantum computing, etc.) But for those, usually a PhD is what they are looking for, Masters wouldn't cut it.

Yea similar for me. I run native linux for work, but a windows machine with a Ubuntu vm for private use. I just can't get around certain things only being really available on Windows.

Though I have a harder time thinking about macos things that are lacking in Linux apart from the Microsoft Office and the Adobe Suite. Especially since the dev experience on Linux is much better considering your servers or embedded devices are running on linux and macOS just adds an unnecessary layer of complexity to your dev environment. yea, you often don't realize it, until you work with C (which might sneek in as a library in your favorite higher language written in C for efficiency) or something else "native".

My point being it's much harder to get rid of windows than getting rid of macos. Even with a Mac I still needed a windows machine at least for games. But many people maybe just need pc + office + Adobe which is exactly mac.
I commuted via bus/RER/metro from the suburbs through Paris to La Defense for many years and didn't have that experience. It's not Japan but outside of strikes it was reliable enough.

I don't think you're correct -- the phone uploads security vouchers from photos, any photos, to Apple's servers. If enough of the vouchers match the image database, Apple can decrypt the vouchers to a low-rez version of the photos.

Am I mistaken?
