And yet Tesla is out there with the highest market cap of them all, which contradicts the person I replied to that there is no variety or an impossibly high barrier to entry.

We have numerous Korean, Japanese, German, and American vehicles on the road with many varieties of sizes and performance.

And obviously you will need to have deep pockets to enter the car business, why wouldn’t you for such a complex machine? That does not mean there is excessive consolidation in the market.
Your company is very interesting. I briefly looked over the website, but couldn't tell what country(ies?) you operate in? My assumption is the regulatory requirements of each country are dramatically different, so seeing the pricing in not $ makes me think it's unlikely you offer services in the US, for instance.
This is readily debunked by the fact that polio vaccines work long-term despite most folks having zero ongoing exposure to the antigens in question.

Different industries - PayTM is mainly into finance while Flipkart (now owned by Walmart) is into online retail. (Though both also dabble in each others field). Just because they use tech, doesn't make them a software company.
Here is the pull request to make Mogan Editor (the fork of GNU TeXmacs) work on Browser via WebAssembly:

We just make it compile based on mgubi's work. And haven't started further work.

It seems the TeXmacs documents are already rendered in a nice way. But most functionality is still not available.

Do you have anything of substance to add besides ad hominem attacks that don't really even make sense?

Let's break this down:

> He's not a technologist, he's a ruthless capitalist playing with other people's money. Idk why he gets so much support.

Calling someone a capitalist isn't the dig you think it is, especially on a website run by a VC firm.

Musk has a track record for returning profit to investors.

> That guy is a wolf in sheep's clothing.

Calling someone the boogeyman convinces nobody. What exactly are you warning about?

> He doesn't care about the planet, or the people, he cares about his bottom line and nothing else.

Have you heard of Tesla EVs?
At this point, the ones who got fired should be grateful, not just banning WFH, but also in few months I recon they will be burnt out from the extra work with tight timeline and fewer resources overall.
Will he pay for their commute? No? then they should count it in the "minimum 40hrs a week"
Almost everyone owns a phone. Amber alerts go to all phones by default. It is therefore statistically unremarkable that "Citizens who received the Amber alert found the child". It's akin to the observation that they were all born after the Civil War. It has no relevance.

I think with the comment was saying is that we cannot eradicate a flu/covid disease by handwashing and masking. China has shown us you can control it with ruthless rules. And a more effective vaccine could do it, but there’s little precedent for a 100% effective respiratory vax.

It's not the identification of the cause - it's the action taken based on it 'and therefore we will enact this law' - for example laws forbidding consenting people to marry if one of them already has a marriage.

On that point we can agree.
May I suggest a book to anybody that finds cephalopods interesting, especially given the connection with consciousness which is a recurring topic in these circles:

Other Minds: The Octopus, the Sea, and the Deep Origins of Consciousness

My only critique is that the plural spelling is octopuses and not octopi, just like the article. Octopuses just looks wrong and sounds funny, I stand my ground. Yes yes I know that it's not a Latin word.
My worst prediction ever was at the end of my book, when I struck a positive note about voice interfaces. The startup I was at in 2015 had the pitch "Let your sales people talk directly to Salesforce" and we pushed the limits of what we could do with NLP. That particular startup had spectacularly bad management and so it flamed out in a series of screaming, raging fights, which I documented here:

https://www.amazon.com/Destroy-Tech-Startup-Easy-Steps/dp/09...

But at the end of the book I struck an upbeat note, about how the technology was advancing quickly and within 3 or 4 years someone would achieve something much greater than our own limited successes.

But I was wrong. 7 years later I'm surprised at how little progress there has been. I don't see any startup that's done much better than what we did in 2015. Voice interfaces remain limited in accuracy and use.
asyncio gets a lot of hype, but I prefer concurrent.futures. It feels more simple and general since I don't have to make everything awaitable.

$430 billion ?
It’s being removed from consequences. WFH you can still be fired, in person you can be punched in the face, but in these other settings there are no immediate consequences.
Centralized financial exchange markets are at least somewhat regulated and notably FTX.US is supposedly A-OK. Just because some stuff in crypto doesn't have regulations doesn't mean it is a free-for-all.

Depending on the details you can often call an async function from a sync function, by just running the event loop, it is just a few lines of code.

The problem is that the event loop is not reentrant [1], so if your sync function is being called from an async function, things do not work. Why would you ever do this you might think? Well, asyncio might be an implementation detail of whatever environment you are using. Jupyiter or ipython for example.

[1] there are... hacks to make this sort of work of course.

It may work. Since it may be just a new "programming language" (somewhat literally), i.e. a new level of high level abstraction. We already know examples of such transition to higher abstraction levels: binary code -> assembly languages -> c/lisp/fortran/etc -> c++/javascript/go/python/r -> np/torch/react/whatever frameworks/libraries. For an average programmer nowadays knowledge of frameworks/libraries is as important (if not more important even) as actual knowledge of the programming language they use. The only disadvantage of this is that people will need to adapt to something generated and updated via a machine learning. So far there are not much examples of that, except maybe people adapting to Tesla Autopilot with every new release. Before we were adapting to a new c++/python/framework version, in future there will be GitHubNext v1, v2 and v3 with known features and bugs.

I used to have an account there and participated in the discussion for years until I got banned a few years ago in a discussion with a blue Anime-fox avatar who was on a mission to politicise the discourse. Judging from similar reports this seems to be relatively common on the site so I just gave up on it. The discourse can be good but the place does not allow anyone to deviate from the desired narrative.

It is odd to see how lobste.rs grew of out discontent with the way HN was moderated but ended up falling into that trap itself. The way a site is moderated is a decisive factor for the couleur locale or 'culture' of the place. While I have my grumblings about HN moderation - or, more specifically, about the use of down-votes for expressing disagreement - this site is not as hostile to those who do not follow the narrative as lobste.rs is - or was, I have not been there for a long time so things could have changed.

That's just how inflation works. The supply side is always trying to charge the highest price they can, when they can do it successfully that means people have more dollars or more demand to throw at those items.

In a non-inflationary period increasing prices will be met with less demand.
Anytime you're holding stock, you obviously take a theoretical risk. How risky something is is a judgement call that each individual needs to make for themselves.

That said, using something like a wheel strategy on stock XYZ is inherently less risky than merely buying the stock outright because the premiums can at least be collected until your target price is hit.

They started by attacking the source, I'm not sure why you're acting as if that isn't the case.
Oh, it bothers the heck out of me. I assume the calculus they did was that it's cheaper to lay off most of the editors and fact checkers, and it won't make much difference to the bottom line, since most people don't even read the text of the article anyway. Just make sure the headline is punchy and you'll get those precious clicks.

And this is exactly the problem. Most people don't know what they are doing, and it isn't easy to learn.

Even if you have a positive expected value bet, if you aren't using Kelly bet sizing, the odds are you end up bankrupt.

I notice your post only mentioned a positive outcome bet, but does not even hint at risk management tools.
I profoundly dislike the new logo as it erodes an ever diminishing bygone-era of graphic design.

Traditional cyphers, monograms and other iconography are time-bound to the pre-20th century (n < 1901). In recent years I've noticed an acute shift to brutalism, minimalism and a loss of individuality in all facets of life. One needs to look no further than something as mundane as bollards, forgive me for my tangent but consider these two examples, one from the 19th century [1] and another from the 20th [2]. Granted this is not a scientific or thorough analysis, it is surely riddled with bias, but there is an unmistable trend towards not just forgetting, but neglecting our history of design and ornamentation.

Not everything needs to be redesigned, not everything needs a modern sans-serif font. Oxford University is the worlds foremost academic institute; founded in 1096; the Press founded in 1586! The previous logo represented this ancient authority and acts as a vessel to a far-away land in this present day.

This type of craftsmanship can not be created anew for they are not of this time, the juxtaposition of such symbolism paired with a modern institute would be nothing less of disingenuous. Therefore we must - for the good of history - preserve these works.

That's like saying you can rent out a burning house. It is technically true, but folks usually like to preserve their initial capital while making income.

There Ain't No Free Lunch in options. Covered calls give up potential upside gains for income now. You still have the same downside risk as the underlying stock.
That is one way/the best way to make money options trading.

Is there any wiggle room in that statement for the alternative? If retail options traders come out ahead winning overall 15% of the time... is that worth pouring time into? It becomes a personal decision on whether you should risk your resources/time given those odds.

The question I have is... why do some people win and some people lose? It can't just be luck.
why not OrgMode websites? it handles tables too!
Recently there was a thread about GitHub Blocks, interactive elements within READMEs and Markdown files in general. If we could standardize that and support it, that would be cool.

Not sure what "there" there is here.

Republicans did not overwhelm but it looks like they will get control of the house. The senate is hanging by a thread. Since Reagan there have always been Democratic senators that vote with the Republicans. Between that and the filibuster, the Democrats would need to control something like 65 seats in the Senate to really say they control the Senate. We'll be in the divided government state which is normal for American politics.

As for "friends and family" I expected my wife to vote Democratic and my son to vote Republican, probably my coworkers to vote Democratic and many of my friends but one long-term friend of mine is the ringleader of the local Republican party. So my answer to that question would be "mu".
Notice that they attacked the source, rather than addressed the argument.

Inflation is definitely higher than 7.7%. Seems to me there's a lot more energy going into that propaganda wave than anything else.
And yet that's the same kind of distinction that you need to understand to be able to make decisions about household debt. If we're honestly at the point where this is considered too confusing for the masses, I think I've stopped thinking democracy is a good idea.

Is the “traditional” finance world this…incestuous? As a casual observer, the crypto ecosystem is almost entirely made up of folks printing Monopoly money, hyping it until it’s nominally worth something, loaning it to each other, and then gambling with the loans everyone took out.
If they have the technology to win the hard stuff, why would they not spend the extra few minutes to also "cover the scrap" areas as well?
I don't think it has much to do with restrictions being lifted. They didn't seem to impede the spread of sars-cov-2. What was stopping the spread of more familiar respiratory viruses was likely viral interference with sars-cov2. The now much higher level of naturally acquired immunity to sars-cov-2 is most likely why other viruses are coming back.
This will sound super basic and maybe even trite, but the way to get rich is to hold assets that increase in value. I know it's stupid and basic, but that's the way. Assets could be hard like physical assets or real estate, but those assets trade long-term potential for asset value growth with liquidity. The best assets are the ones that not only increase in value at a significant rate, but also provide cash / income along the way. Then your assets are working for you, rather than you working for your assets. I know, boring and super obvious right?

Assets also include ownership in companies, whether its your own or someone else. The best assets to own are the ones that have the potential to rapidly increase in value, but of course those are the most risky. So the balance is rate of asset value increase over time measured against risk of holding that asset. The best assets are also ones where a third-party can provide a value of that asset, and that asset has a market. The best assets are also the ones you really own versus borrow or lease or have to earn into. Of course, there are ways to borrow assets as a means to actually own and hold other assets.

I know this is stupid and basic, but people get so caught up in swings and moves and trades and plays and options and derivatives and this angle and that angle. But what has worked for me is to buy assets that increase in value, and keep doing that. You can't get "rich" by being an employee and trading your time for money. There's no asset increasing in value. Of course, if you own a piece of the company you're employed in, then what you're working for is to increase the value of that asset, and your income is a cash flow benefit. Likewise, you can't get "rich" by finding passive income. That's great for covering your cash flow and expenses, but there's no asset increasing in value. If you can find an asset that provides cash flow while also increasing in value, that's even better. You can't get "rich" by timing the market. First of all, that's mostly luck, so all examples of where that works can be attributed to luck more than skill, and second of all, there's no asset that's increasing in value.

Oh and one more thing. This is what I realized fairly recently. Venture capital doesn't invest in businesses. It's the biggest head fake there is. They invest in assets, high risk, fast growth assets. Whether that asset generates revenue for the business owners doesn't matter and often gets in the way of the asset increasing in value or slowing down the rate at which the asset increases in value. Whether that asset hires or fires employees doesn't matter (to the VCs). What matters is how fast can their asset increase in value and what is the market to sell that asset. Sometimes you have to increase the value of an asset by overhiring, and then by overfiring. Once you realize that VCs invest in high risk high return assets and not in businesses, then it all clicks.
I made a comment about how to do this as my very first HN post on this account[1] in a code-golf-y sort of thread:

Here's the example:

# Markdown header

## Subheader

### Section header

1. Numbered
1. List

- Unordered
- List

[//]: # (<html><body></body><script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/marked/marked.min.js"></script><script>var doc = document.children[0].textContent.split('\n'); md = doc.slice(0, doc.length - 1).join("\n"); document.body.innerHTML = marked(md);</script></html><!--)

Now, whether this is wise to encourage or not I can't speak to.

It would be great if browsers parsed markdown as text-only

This feels like a distinction without a difference? Since much of your immune system is not replacing old protections, but modifying them, I think it is fair to question if skipping some exposure is possibly dangerous?

Granted "to question" is doing a lot of work in my last sentence there. I don't think it is a foregone conclusion. Would be very interested in seeing it explored. Closest my memory has to this is introducing kids to preschools. The new kids are always the ones getting most sick. Same for homeschoolers going to college. They will spend a ton of time catching up on sicknesses they missed out on.
