Had a Spring/Boot app that had too slow startup times. Used SparkJava but it was too bare-bones.

Switched to Javalin with JDBI and it's pretty good.
I dunno, I was there for 10 years and never learned to play. So I quit.

But I never had a hostile manager really. Some coworkers though. Most people were more than decent.

It's just... a hard environment to get used to if you're not inclined to think in a big-organizational way.
Well, I just popped an inocuous search term ("dinosaurs") in there and the very first result was a page with the title:

"Evidence That Humans And Dinosaurs Coexisted"

So that actually kind of sucks.
Or by firing the whole team responsible and starting over.
I've tried both. While I enjoyed the setup with Anarki better (in particular using the repl to make live inspections and changes), Racket is vastly more supported by docs and the community. So if you are a CS pro and don't mind figuring out everything for yourself then Anarki is plausible, otherwise it's kinda crazy to go that way.
Same problems in Jira: Start typing a comment, and it watches the issue or change issue, because keyboard navigation isn’t disabled while in a field.

But press Cmd+K to reach the address bar, or Cmd+W to close the tab: Nothing happens because Jira hijacks the keyboard.

It’s the big site challenge: Wreck the user experience and watch people who keep using it because they have to.
A particularly tongue in cheek way to describe a statue is that it's a block of marble with all the bits that aren't the statue removed.

Both Michelangelo and Mark Twain have quotes that bear that sentiment.

There are ways to describe Quality by what it is not, and people often do, but defining things in the negative tends to be a less effective coping mechanism. Some people try to describe Quality by its consequences, rather than the consequences of not having it. But it's still slippery, in large part because we often only know it in hindsight. Long feedback loops are notoriously bad learning opportunities.
People joke about the programmer in a dark corner plugging away and never talking to others, but that's actually pretty rare.

In 20 years I've only worked with a handful of developers who don't want to socialize, collaborate, or solve problems together.

These two sentences are not mutually exclusive. I love to discuss with professionals or hobbyists things that overlap with my own interests or profession. Or drink and joke with them, iow feel close. But put me in a pretty common group whose best interest are: shallow travel, second order or empty talks, etc - and I will plug away immediately, because telling them what they even laugh about is so boring would be rude.

Firing everyone the moment you pick up a company without knowing whose important or having that institutional knowledge transfer occur is a really good way to just completely destroy it. Never mind that no one with a sane mind is gonna work for Twitter knowing they'll have to pick up the pieces.

Crowdsourcing Digital Nomad sporty destinations
Hi guys, I'm a nomad and I love my sports: rock climbing, kite, hiking, trail running, MTB. It's always a drag to find the next interesting destination where I can get good wifi, some nomad community and do fun outdoor stuff, so together with my partner we decided to crowdsource this. Let's create a massive repository of all outdoorsy digital nomad destinations, which we will share once full and keep updating on the website. Would be great if you helped and passed it on to your friends!
The latter. It may be bad in the balkans, which it is, but nowhere near as bad as in other places. Either way both regions will improve. If anything, i’d invest now even if i wouldnt be able to exploit that investment. Nationalism aside i think india has a bright future. The balkans will end up in the eu as well if the eu doesnt break up. Worth investing there too.

I second this. It’s the golden standard textbook (don’t quote me, but I believe most universities use it for their AI I class).

The first 10 or so chapters are written so well that you can literally just read them as a self-study undertaking. Each chapter has an introduction and conclusion that reads like a novel, and the rest of each chapter is delivered in manageable chunks. The second half of the book is more text-booky, but by chapter 10 you will have a much better idea of the field and will have picked up on areas you want to dive into more specifically.

Chapters 1-10 cover state spaces, how deductive logic applies to machines, differences between environments from a machine perspective, and more (shoutout to the AI game chapter, it’s a fascinating introduction to how machines play games).

I’d estimate that the first 10-12 chapters would take you less than 50 hours total. From there you would have the basics you need to jump into neural networks concepts, robotic decision making, or something else practical. All of AI is built on foundations from 1950-1990 (and earlier), and the first 10-12 chapters will give you that foundation.
Has anyone tried one of these for 4k plex transcoding? 32 EUs isn't a lot but may be enough for a couple of streams.

He can relitigate it all he wants. I’m not calling for cancelling him. Several people in this thread seem to have taken my comment that I don’t want to continue giving the guy money for what a fantastic game, because I find him to be such an asshole as a personal attack on them and peoples ability to speak.

On the note of relitigating whenever he wants however, he doesn’t get to do it in an ahistorical vacuum. These arguments have been made before and opinions have already formed. If wants to try and reargue them he’s starting from a state where that information is already present.

Regardless, he’s not actually relitigating. He’s doing a motte and Bailey type argument where he’s saying a relatively defensive position that someone isn’t a bigot automatically for an opinion until it’s debunked, but it’s in defense of already debunked arguments. No one brought an actual new argument about the ability of women to do software engineering

There’s also the “aesthetics” of what you end up building. I like my factory to look a certain way. There’s sort of three phases of playing Factorio.

1) learning the game, making spaghetti

2) pulling in other blueprints, reaching the end game

3) creating your own blueprints, reaching the mountains of madness

For experienced players of factory or strategy games, Mindustry starts out really easy. You can just build a wall at a choke point near the enemy spawn, stack up turrets, and go about your business.

At higher levels, it gets more challenging and complicated. You need to produce power and coolant, and you need to use a mix of defenses. And you also need to defend vulnerable sectors against counter-attacks, and build offensive units to attack enemy sectors. And it has a cute little system for programming units in "assembly", although the documentation is almost non-existent.

So even if it seems weirdly easy at first, it might be worth playing at least the first few campaign levels. Overall, I'd say it's my favorite mobile factory game, just edging out Refactory.

If anyone likes overtone singing mixed with western styles definitely check out Toby Twining [0]. You can hear the overtone singing in the voice saying "reee", since that allows a rich-enough tone to produce strong overtones that can then be 'focused' by changing the embouchure (a term I'm borrowing from wind instrumentalists to describe the positions of the lips, tongue, teeth and facial muscles [1]).

I remember doing the same thing in my exams but the problem was that I'd always run out of time and wasn't getting the best grade. I was doing pretty good otherwise and my understanding was deeper. I wouldn't recommend doing that in exams if you care about grades. I didn't and still don't but not to the point of having bad grades or failing at anything.

I've harbored a thought which, incidentally, might also be more reliably testable for QA. Rather than rely upon drag-and-drop for reordering queue entries, provide explicit move-up and move-down performing small buttons, one pair per visible queue entry. Of course, drag-and-drop might be considered visually cleaner (no visual affordances) and allow for move-by-several-slots larger motions. Would that the current YT UI actually allow drag-and-drop-between to work as expected.

Yeah, good luck with that. I guess if you pay enough they will come but they need to settle in and figure out a plan. It won’t happen immediately. I certainly wouldn’t sign up to work for a company that just fires entire orgs without a real plan.

>None one can say we have that right now. Facebook, instagram, TikTok are left wing. Truth social, gettr, etc... Are right wing

>Where's the "neutral", centric platform?

Are you.. serious? You construct this statement as if Facebook, instagram, tiktok, reddit etc are somehow mandated or left wing by some fake construction..

Truth social, gettr and whatever other bullshit people made are the only ones created for people of some specific viewpoints to go there because they don't understand they are in the vast minority on their views which is why no one wants to hear about their bullshit on the rest of the internet.

So maybe you should be asking yourself the simple question: if every neutral platform naturally swings left.. hmm, that couldn't possibly mean because most people are actually more left leaning in this country?

i felt the exact same way. why work on a fake factory in a video game that no one will care about, when i can work on an actual thing in the real world?

it was fun for like 4-5 hours (I think I got to solar panels? or nuclear power plants? i forgot) but once that simple fact began to sink in, i was never able to pick it up again.

Release Radar · September 2022 Edition
I'm not sure if its anything in particular quite yet.

Note that this is a leveraged buyout, where Twitter has taken on $13,000,000,000 in debt to support the buyout. A lot of this debt (at least $3 Billion) is unsecured-loans expected to be rated CCC or worse... a rating that yields 16% APY.

Overall, the debt is estimated to cost 10% and getting worse (as interest rates rise), suggesting a ~$1.3 Billion/year hole in Twitters finances right now.

---------

For better or worse, Elon Musk's only sane financial option is to fire huge swaths of the company. He's gotta find $1.3 Billion/year in costs and fix that. Firing thousands of engineers will get him... partially there.

Of course, Elon should have been trying to grow the company, but that seems a lot harder than just firing a ton of people.

I'm sure Elon is also a vindictive asshole, so he also probably wants to get back at the team who brought up Twitter's arguments for mDAU numbers in court. It doesn't matter if the team was right or wrong, they were against Elon and therefore are to be terminated. IMO anyway, that's my read on his psyche right now.

The fact that Elon can also "rationalize" it as a good business move is icing on the cake. He's really gotta cut costs to have any hopes of making this work.
I somehow think the $350k data engineers will land on their feet.

Show HN: A Data Stack for Web3
Hey - We're building https://luabase.com/.

tl;dr - Luabase is a data stack for web3 teams. We make it easy to query any blockchain with SQL, analyze it in notebooks, and embed the data in your app with our API.

You can answer questions like: how many people that used Uniswap also have an ENS / .eth address?

I know a lot of people here hate crypto. I get it. There's a lot of bullshit and scams in crypto. I'm personally drawn to it because a lot of financial applications suck and crypto provides a set of open source tools to build better ones.

Anyway, if you're into web3, check it out and let me know if I can answer any questions. I'll be around.

Ask HN: How profound is Stability AI really?
I came across a lot of interviews and articles about Stability AI (https://stability.ai/) recently and wondered if it’s just a Silicon Valley buzzword parade or, if it’s really changing how and where we compute in the future?

Anyone from the company or in the field can give an unfiltered opinion?
I'm curious whether this foretells any potential future change in strategy for e.g. Cruise/Waymo, which are similarly ultra-expensive.
Phaedrus went literally insane and had electro-shock-therapy to "cure" the problem.

My take on the insanity is that it was connected to the "needless adjusting", "throwing shade" and "treating every little incidental thing as deep metaphor" among other things.

This was the biggest takeaway for me from this book -- roughly that an obsessive pursuit of quality (or definition of quality even) might take someone over the edge of sanity.

This is an overcorrection to OPs comment. If Nvidia knew about the very real risk of fire but continued to push unsafe products with misleading statements, that is a significant problem and hints at a fundamental rot within the company.
That would be my gut - he felt like they weren't getting the data they needed. If he's doing layoffs/firing that quickly, he's most certainly doing it to make a point to the rest of the company. That's the only reason you would do something like that that fast. Not endorsing it or weighing either way. Just stating the facts.
I have observed my hibernating linux desktop receiving and transmitting data through the onboard GbE interface to IPs that were owned by an ASN owned by an LLC with a registered address matching the WHOIS for the ASN - an address that didn't exist according to the postal service.

Like the article says, 2023 is going to be a big year in the S-curve for EV adoption.

CA gas prices are >$5 / gallon (1.33€ / liter). An extra $1,500 / year cost for average ICE over EV.

There's a burgeoning market of increasingly affordable options, many with an extra $7.5k off in 2023:

$25k Chevy Bolt

$28k Nissan Leaf

$30k Chevy Equinox EV

$34k Hyundai Kona EV

$37k VW ID.4

$40k Chevy Silverado EV

$41k Kia EV6

$42k Toyota bZ4x

I'm seeing more and more people who would've abhorred gas-savers like the Prius 5 years ago, now looking to purchase an EV. I'd easily expect to see 30% of new CA car sales be EV in 2023, with another 30% hybrid. It's going to be quite brutal for the auto mfg that are practically ICE-only: Dodge, Chrysler, Subaru, Mazda, etc.

Programming Languages Pragmatics #1
I think people shouldn't jump to conclusions that the firings were completely uninformed. People seem to be under the assumption that 100% of the executives and management would be against Elon. There's going to be quite a few who will talk to Elon and give opinions on what changes need to be made, probably people who were out of favor with existing management and executives. These may be people he has been talking to for quite some time, even before the deal went through.

Also the tweet doesn't say if it was just the data engineering team, more than that, or a subset of people and the people fired think it's the entire team.

Having gone through a layoff before, you're generally not told what subset of people were let go, just that you have been.

Then, out of the blue, I will verbalize something about the second topic and the convo partner has no idea what I'm talking about. The topics can be as unrelated as databases and the mating habits of penguins. I have forgotten that the convo partner did not take the journey into the second narrative with me.
