Why does the author wish to imply Julia Roberts' parents were so poor they couldn't afford $1?

Coretta Scott King paid off the bill as thanks for her parents' kindnesses towards black children in Atlanta. Is $1 - about $30 now - really that big of a thank you in 1967?

(Mention HN)
I went through something similar in high school and college, my personal theory is that extroversion is very similar in a lot of ways to physical fitness.

Some people are naturally predisposed to a higher baseline, it's easier for them to maintain muscle mass, etc. However most people can significantly improve their fitness level with dedicated effort.

If you are in good physical shape something like going for a short run might be a massive mood/energy boost, but for someone out of shape they will find themselves exhausted very quickly.
Not really, that’s just the same guy writing a PDF. It’s not cited, peer reviewed or published in a journal. It’s literally just a dude writing stuff on the internet - that’s not necessarily a problem, but there are literally tens of thousands of people with “great ideas” that marry GR and QM, and none of their theories go anywhere, or make any testable predictions.

He makes some bold claims, no predictions and doesn’t seem to get published, which strongly indicates he can’t get past peer review.

Why wouldn't Apple pay license fees? They're no longer a shareholder, even if they were I'm sure other shareholders would be upset (ie litigious) if Apple got special treatment.

Apple may have gotten a good deal based on the fact that they don't intend to sell their ARM designs outside of their own products, thus avoiding competition with ARM, but there is no rational reason why ARM would not try to extract as much money out of them as possible.
> "misinformation" (in contrast to "disinformation") does not say anything about intent, so you're wrong to quote that part.

Misinformation. Noun. False or inaccurate information, especially that which is *deliberately intended to deceive*.

I stand by my statement.

> I went on public record saying why I left. And there was an entire discussion about it. There was never any confusion about why I left.

Which he clearly hasn't read. Not everybody lives online and not everybody is personally familiar with you and your situation. It certainly doesn't explain why you're inappropriately assuming malicious intent.

> If you're still going to say things that are untrue to push your own narrative

Where is he trying to push a narrative? I looked at his post history here and on Lobsters before posting. This is the first time he's ever mentioned it or brought it up.

> And if my behavior is what speaks out to you as bad

Yes. Even moreso now that you've explained. You could have corrected his statement without acting like the world's out to get you or that he intended you personal harm.

Ento Labs | Python Software Engineer | REMOTE Europe | Full-time | https://ento.ai

Ento Labs is building an AI-first product to make energy optimization in buildings much faster and cheaper as no additional hardware or onsite visits are required.

Energy efficiency is a key driver in most net-zero scenarios, but the reports don't explain how building owners are supposed to understand all of the different solutions let alone prioritize, implement and verify them. To solve this, we model energy consumption from low-resolution smart meter data and provide a prioritized list of recommended actions to take across a building portfolio. With each action taken, the system improves and documents savings for the building owner.

To take advantage of data network effects, our system is designed to scale horizontally for any number of buildings. We're growing rapidly, now monitoring ~50,000 meters and have helped save more than 4,000 tons of annual CO2 emissions in 1.5 years. Our company is basically a machine that effectively converts data and code into emission reductions by interacting with the existing energy optimization environment (technicians, vendors etc).

In this role you'll join a small but fast growing team of data scientist, software engineers and energy experts to architect and build out the product in close collaboration with the rest of the company, customers and partners. Our stack is AWS, Python + Django, Postgres, Redis.

Please note that our web app is not a React/Vue/Angular app, but we're using Hotwire/Stimulus/Turbo where it makes sense.

think this is spot on. allude to this here https://acehigh.substack.com/p/operatingproduct-plan-for-twi...

to add to your point:
1/ tech stack/architecture isn't #1 or even #10 issue. think everyone (all) agree on this
2/ larger issue is how to handle open discourse. given how we are wired as species, is there a social network that is truly open that doesn't descend into vitriol? if so - what behaviors are rewarded, what are the policies etc. - this is #1 question

CORRECTION: missed a divide-by-dt for the +=

corrected code should be

mouse.reset()
steer_ang += sensitivity*dx/dt

}
> That is, until the ease, quality and utility of fully decentralized systems exceeds the pain of the fragility and abusiveness of the current centralized offerings.

I agree. A centralized system will seek to expand to further consolidate control & create cartels which often act against the interests of those outside of the cartel. A system of decentralized components that becomes centralized can be forked to create alternative systems that address the interests of those who maintain the alternative systems.

It's like forest garden management technique...using fire to create new growth & biodiversity. The mature forest has less biodiversity & will eventually die out on it's own, but a fire will clear the less "fit" organisms leaving space for new organisms to grow.

I quit Twitter years ago not due to any of these problems (they are endemic to the whole of internet), but because I was addicted to the scrolling. It was a lot easier than I thought to quit and I can't even imagine anymore what I thought I would be missing. While this could be changed with code, it's highly unlikely to make me come back.
SEEKING WORK | Europe, Amsterdam

Focused on simplicity. More info below.

Tech: Fullstack Python, Django, FastAPI, Cloud hosting.

Hi, I have 15 years of dev experience and I used to run a software agency and I have extensive experience in building custom software mainly in Fintech but also in other domains.

I can build end-to-end product MVPs using Python, Django and TailwindUI. Classic web. No React, No FE framework. Very little Javascript but effective server rendered apps.

I mainly focus on the business case and try to write as little code as possible and keep the stack as simple as possible. The goal is to reduce maintenance costs and technical debt.

You can read my philosophy to FE dev here (the tech I use is a bit different now): https://world.hey.com/nasir/the-modest-frontend-c21aceef

I think this demonstrates how _insidious_ influencer marketing is. We feel like we're privvy to the behind the scenes decision making about this influencer or that one. But we aren't. We don't really know if they are really choosing the products they wish to promote, or if there are other considerations that influenced that decision.

The aim of influencer marketing is to leverage parasocial relationships to sell stuff, and it works because people think of influencers more like 'a somewhat distant friend' than a talking head or a traditional paid promoter.
That's probably also the reason TCP failed to catch on: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transmission_Control_Protoco...
Real estate is usually all about location, land itself is plentiful and cheap around the world, it's all the stuff required to make it livable and proximity to where people want to be that's expensive.
Racism as a catch-all term makes for really unproductive discourse. There's a difference between "I deeply hate people of a certain race from the bottom of my heart" vs "I generally hate the behavior I have observed of a certain race because they are different from my expectations." The latter is probably more common and it's because humans don't like things that are different from them. The former is evil and is what used to come to mind when people used the term. I would like to see these two things conflated less.
Of course nobody actually pays that.

> that the fed is intentionally raising rates to wrest back some power from workers

The fed is increasing interest rates to keep dollars attractive as a world currency and allows the US governments to keep increase national debt whithout sending interest rate of through the roof.

It may seem counter-intuitive, but letting inflation going out of control would have a major negative impact on demand of debt issued in dollar or, to make it short, US government debt.

The only alternative would be to fund government spending with government revenues. Which means, increase taxes for categories of revenues which amount the most in national revenues.
Good explanation of the financial challenges of making Twitter break even, much less profitable. non-paywalled: https://archive.ph/WY3ET

TLDR (from electoral-vote.com's summary [1]): "Twitter has lost money in 8 of the last 10 years. Last year, it had a cash flow of a little over $600 million to cover all of its expenses, including $50 million in debt service. Now, with all the debt Musk took on in order to buy the platform, debt servicing alone is going to exceed $1 billion annually. That means all of the cash that the platform is generating plus another $400 million, and that's before a single server or bit of bandwidth or salary is paid for.

"If that were not enough, Musk just cashiered the senior management of Twitter, naming himself as the sole director of the company. The folks he just terminated all had giant golden parachutes, meaning that he is going to have to write them nearly $200 million in checks as they exit stage right. Maybe they'll be open to taking that in Tesla stock?"

[1]:https://electoral-vote.com/#item-3
The web pages and git aren't updated yet, here is the vulnerability straight from the .tar.gz on their FTP:

Fixed two buffer overflows in punycode decoding functions.
A buffer overrun can be triggered in X.509 certificate verification, specifically in name constraint checking. Note that this occurs after
certificate chain signature verification and requires either a CA to have signed the malicious certificate or for the application to continue
certificate verification despite failure to construct a path to a trusted issuer.

In a TLS client, this can be triggered by connecting to a malicious server. In a TLS server, this can be triggered if the server requests client
authentication and a malicious client connects.

An attacker can craft a malicious email address to overflow an arbitrary number of bytes containing the . character (decimal 46) on the
stack. This buffer overflow could result in a crash (causing a denial of service). ([CVE-2022-3786])

An attacker can craft a malicious email address to overflow four attacker-controlled bytes on the stack. This buffer overflow could result in a
crash (causing a denial of service) or potentially remote code execution depending on stack layout for any given platform/compiler.
([CVE-2022-3602])

-----------------------------------

Doesn't sound that critical to me. CAs normally don't let you outright construct your own certificate, and I'd expect you'll have a hard time to get a certificate issued which is both for mail encryption (so you get an email name constraint) and TLS (SAN constraint). And servers without TLS client authentication, which is about 99.99 % of them, aren't affected. TLS client auth is usually only used in enterprise networks and typically terminated by middleboxes running ancient software anyway.
Fully remote and async - we meet in a different global location each quarter. Brilliant and passionate team. Huge important mission. Complex problems to solve. Highly rewarding.
This is an interesting point! Can you give more detail or examples of 'institutional constraints' moderating public officials interactions with the public (in the past)? Are there rules or policy written down about what can/cannot be said that the institution enforces that goes against what the public leader wanted?
> As for squashing, I believe that everything should be rebased instead to maintain a proper, linear git history

Rebasing on your PR branches is up to you, it's subjective, but setting GitHub to rebase your PR commits onto your main branch as it's merge strategy is not proper at all. It might 'work' for a tiny hobby project, but it does NOT work for any kind of team activity / professional environment - it would be an immense amount of bloat onto your main branch, and git will eventually start to get slow as mud on every operation because of it. Fun fact, git performance does not scale linearly, and big monorepos hit this problem. Beyond performance, when looking through git history on the main branch:
- Every commit on the main branch should map 1:1 with a reviewed PR that passed CI tests/checks
- The 'mapping' can just be done by having the PR number in the commit message title. GitHub does that for you with the settings in this blog post
- It's not uncommon that someone has 30+ commits on their PR branch, many of which are in a totally broken state, have blatant typos, etc. People just don't (and it's not even desire-able for them to) structure their local commits while working on a PR to be some kind of iterative working state that is useful for others to look at. It's beyond clutter to have these 30 broken commits with crummy commit messages like "update" rebased onto the main branch for all to see for all time.

I think posts like this illustrate why MBAs retain their power over organisations, despite the constant complaints about them by engineers. There couldn't be a greater perspective gap.

The "how" is the absolute last question, the "what" is the first.

Can you imagine the following conversation:

"Hey you should sign up to Facebook!"

"Oh, why?"

"It's got a great tech stack!".

Me nether.

To design an alternative Twitter you must first understand what made Twitter popular in the first place. And then at some point, in the far distant future, let the name of a tech into your head, or a line of code onto your screen.

Said in good faith. I know so many engineers who wasted so much time because they couldn't understand that outside of the constraints of a job their skills had no monetary value by default.
This is exactly the reason I don't do R&D work for the DoD anymore. Cost plus contracts incentivize the performer to have more staff than required to make more profit and to never deliver anything early or over perform in any way. I just couldn't live with myself if I min-max'd the situation.
Gravity is not a force in GR; it's spacetime curvature.

I don't know where this "maximum force" thing is coming from, but it isn't from actual physics.
> It's more of a personal, interpersonal and a social problem which needs extensive research, surveys to find the "why" and how we might be able to fix it or avoid it from happening again.

Changing human behavioural patterns that emerged after millions of years of evolution? This seems incredibly naive to me. We can build our technology around the fact that we humans as a species are as we are. Limit this kind of toxic behaviour by various means, e.g. moderation and developing algorithms that detect such emergent patterns and then change recommendation types. Things like these. But changing how we biologically work goes into a direction that is filled with moral and ethical landmines.
Raise the price and drop the features, makes sense to me. Next step, the MMO route: sell different-color flair for your account so everybody can tell how much you spend per month on Twitter. Then, let people filter by tier: Twitter Blue can block Twitter Blue and no-check users; Twitter Red cannot be blocked except by Red and above... on up to Twitter Diamond who can't be blocked by anybody but other $100k/mo users. Sure, people will hate it, but will they pay?

I tried nushell for a few days, but sh syntax is just too ingrained... It slowed me down a bunch and couldn't get over the initial learning curve. Ended up going back to zsh. Also, losing a bunch of completions for tools I used was a bummer. I wish nushell could parse bash/zsh completion scripts or something to help ease the transition.

Maybe I'll revisit it at some point in the future.
