If Docker didn't want this to happen, they should not have given everything away for free and then started charging money for it years later.

Also keep in mind that Linux containers are based on open source kernel technology and Docker was just a friendly layer on top. Anyone else has always been free to build their own friendly layer on top. All that's changed is that those alternatives are now more compelling.
Well, you are now an outlier, perhaps even an extreme one. The great majority of people who bought Crypto, have lost money. We could argue that they haven't lost if they didn't sell. But in these economical times, at least Bitcoin/Crypto is proving not to be an inflationary hedge.
This is the best toned layoff announcement I’ve read.
That's a good bit of info. Excellent, I'll tuck that one away for the future.
Ask HN: I would like some career insight
Hey everyone, I am a fresh graduate from university at 24, living in Melbourne, Australia. I studied bachelor of Engineering, with a major of product design. Which tends to cause a lot of confusion, but it's essentially mechanical engineering and industrial design.

During my study, I worked at a company in the power industry for 2 years, where I got to invent and design new products- which is unheard of for an intern as they usually get grunt CAD work. Although I didn't enjoy working with the company because of how they did things, I genuinely enjoyed my job, and got to work with my hands, create new things, and solve complex problems. I eventually got distinguished at what I did (generating lots of income and patentable designs) and surpassed some much more experienced co-workers in terms of coming up with new designs.

But this is where the fun ends. Firstly, there aren't many product development jobs in Melbourne, and the ones that exist involve me moving out of the family home to the other side of the city resulting allocating a large portion of my salary to rent. Secondly, these jobs don't pay much. In that specific company I had coworkers with 7 years of experience earning around $90k. So when I look at software jobs, I can find positions that are much less demanding (in job requirements and effort during work) than in my line of work, earning significantly more.

I've always been into tech, I have a home server, know decent python, docker, linux etc. But I'm at a crossroads, should I look into machine learning/other jobs and hopefully enjoy the money? Or continue doing what I love (working on physical products)? I admit I'm naive and don't understand both spaces fully. I understand that money is not everything, but I want to be able to afford a house and live comfortably.

A side question: What tech jobs can I look into? I prefer higher level thinking and planning like strategy, rather than focused development
Don't shoot the messenger: the actual problem is that FTX is insolvent, and that would have come to light sooner or later anyway.
From a set of companies that do not pay dividends, companies that do not generate profits are a small subset. Many companies in the SP500 index do not pay dividends, but one of the conditions of inclusion in the SP500 index is for a company to generate profits. Unprofitable companies may well be very similar to any blockchain app, although you have more signals to analyze their future profitability potential.
Yes, and you only get added to a beta list once you go through their complicated signup flow.

Signup pages aren't really on topic for HN. This looks like a cool project but it should be submitted when there's something for people to actually try.
Yup. The only reason I hate cryptocurrencies is because I'm ashamed that I missed out on something everyone else presumed I would be early on.
It sure was!
Hate to blow up your logic but Bitcoin is made up of 100k+ lines of code that took time and a process to form into a blockchain, and has several practical uses.
The Rule of Thirds
Still a pretty great deal for everyone who was trading it at $15-100 for lunch money back in the day. I no longer hold any bitcoin, but I felt very lucky to sell one of those lunch-money coins for $10k. $2k of that went into photographic equipment that's yielded great intellectual joy for several years now.

Price is what you pay, value is what you get.
>This indicates that the value was propped up by market manipulation.

I'd wager the propping was part manipulation and part speculative mania, of which the latter his been dispelled.

Public funding for research and moonshot projects?
I experienced issues on Fedora because back then Docker did not support cgroups v2.
People understand giving someone cash, though.

Zelle is implemented in a confusing way that's begging for fraud.
That's a good point about monetisation. I did wonder how they plan on making money, but to be honest, I didn't do much research on that topic.
depends on your neighborhood/city. a lot of places in the US make heavy use of street-side parking. at the least, it does position itself counter to any push at more efficient land use in cities.
How are the vendors that accept crypto paying their invoices? The company I work for has hundreds of vendors and suppliers, and none of them accept cryptocurrency. They all seem to want USD.
I feel for everyone working there who is suffering whiplash from being pulled from one direction to the other.

What can you possibly learn about a new feature in a few hours apart from the gut reaction of a mob? If that's enough to change your mind, what evidence was there in the first place that the feature was a good idea? Probably none.
We're saying that BTC's value could crash to close to $0 but it will still keep running and working because people like myself would never allow it to actually reach $0. I will personally buy every last bitcoin on the planet before it gets close to $0.
This is a topic I think about quite regularly, so I think it is safe to say I don't have it all figured out.

But the one belief I've come to is that we do ourselves a disservice when we fall pray to the idea that the universe has some purpose for us. In reality, we are just animals like the all the rest, just more intelligent. We don't believe that there is some grand purpose behind the squirrels you see in your yard, and it is hard to imagine they put much thought into it either.

Instead, if we look at our lives as just one thread of existence among all the others, it takes a lot of the pressure off of us having to live some preordained path. Instead, we can choose our own path and follow wherever our interests and experiences bring us.

Of course, being biological creatures, there is always our internal "purpose" of continuing the human race. Whether that is through having kids, ensuring our environment isn't going to be uninhabitable in a few generations, or the propagation of our species beyond our planet, there are things we can all do towards this end (with wildly differing degrees of challenge admittedly). But these are the purposes we all share to some degree.

But beyond that, your life is yours to live as you wish. Find the things that you are drawn to and where spending hours on it feels effortless and you'll be on your way to a good life.

I think the big temptation that many of us face, in big part due to our environments, is the belief that we need to become wealthy to live a good and purposeful life. In some cases the purpose you decide upon will naturally, and conveniently, lead towards the acquisition of wealth. But for most it will not. And pursuing wealth when you could be pursuing the things you actually want to spend your time (your most valuable resource) on is often a mistake.
Yes, which is what the GP post said, they lose their unvested stock. By future vested I meant, stock that will vest after they are laid off. Could've been clearer I guess.
It's a combination of GOFAI (fancy tree search) and ML (neural networks and differentiable programming)

The idea isn't particularly new but it wasn't possible to implement anything useful until recently when attention/transformers and LLMs gave a huge boost to NLP and most ML tasks.
A good ole finger wag oughta learn em to not be professional fraudsters. Yeah. Worked real well with all the non-binding suggestions put in to law post-2008 banker scams.
My guess is that they're working to condition you to accept ads and accept the idea that MS can do whatever they want on your(?) computer because eventually they want everything in the cloud so they have more more control over what you can/can't do, they can more easily access/mine all your data, and they can charge you a monthly fee to access windows (and by extension your files). There's a ton of money to made from it even before they start to paywall off common OS features you've always had access to (like Solitaire)
That's just the label, nothing decentralised is left. See, as it turns out, to trade you need to find people and people are found in central locations. Okay, there are still many exchanges but this is mostly incidental and it makes sense to end up with single exchange eventually.
I have been working remotely for a long time (before covid). I think you can link that to my degree of engagement in the meeting. If my camera is off, chances are that I'm doing something else in parallel (meaning that if I could politely refuse to participate, I would) :-). For 1 on 1s I always have my camera on, even when the other doesn't (happens to me). An exception would be if I take the call on my phone (e.g. in the train), in which case I explain it at the beginning of the call.

So if I organized a daily meeting and most cameras were off, I would actually question the very existence of the meeting. But standups are a popular cargo cult ceremony, so it seems difficult to question them when they don't seem to make sense :-).
Iota appears to be the same as the "X" combinator as found by Jeroen Fokker: The Systematic Construction of a One-Combinator Basis (1989) that amounts to concatenating/applying (material) implication's reduction & distributivity axioms ("S" & "K") in addition to first binding another variable "x", which is "f" in the Iota definition. Shorter than "x" locally complete & consistent (indecisive) single implication axioms exist as one found by Meredith and listed by the now deceased Dolph Ulrich: https://web.ics.purdue.edu/~dulrich/C-pure-intuitionism-page... See also: https://math.stackexchange.com/questions/153163/what-is-the-... The shortest single implication axiom appears to be an open question (though translating to implication the McCune/Fitelson/Wos/Wolfram shortest 6 NAND axiom work https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minimal_axioms_for_Boolean_alg... seems to be a proof for 3 variables) along with if distributivity is the shortest local completeness (weakening) axiom (see Robbins axiom & associativity & commutativity 3-basis) in addition to having to analyze Meredith's & others on Ulrich's list for self-interpreter lengths. But, a self-interpreter seems unlikely to be shorter compared to lambda calculus given the pattern of decreasing self-interpreter length with increasing complexity of the underlying axiom system.
They started AS Alameda and THEN made an exchange to facilitate their trades. They did not exist for any other purpose than doing the good old Tether + Bitfinex = iFinex.
I've had many artists explain to me that they are in fact engineers - there is much calculation, chemistry, optics and then some - but I'd say that programmers are more like lawyers than engineers. Sorry, but it's symbolic work, not physical work. "Software Engineer" is just a title someone gives you and means no more than "Software Developer" or "Computer Programmer" ever did.

Of course lawyers and "real" engineers have to get professional certification that can be legally revoked; programmers and artists don't.

And the documentary Tim's Vermeer is pretty good.
How many of those people leave their car parked in direct sunlight the entire day? I use my car for city errands but it spends 99% of the time in a parking garage. The few minutes a day my car is outside in use could provide what, a hundred meters worth of juice? Useless.

Even if I wanted to store my car parked on the street, I don't even know where in my neighborhood I could do that. There are trees and tall buildings that shade nearly every street for at least a substantial part of the day.
Is it offensive to want to be happy / happier without first solving someone else's problems? What's the appropriate amount of happiness to feel before it should turn to guilt?
Unlike the things you pointed out, Bitcoin will never give dividends or have any assets sold at an auction. Instead it's a pyramid scheme, easily replaceable by any other shitcoin out there, and the value of it should be close to $1 or less.
You can pretty much short any stocks or crypto at this point.... Biden is not done.
Looks great! We use GraphQL -- do you support scanning for that?
Perhaps instead of Meta paying the severances, Zuck could dip into his massive bank account.
Should the value of Bitcoin be rising with inflation?
Also, if you choose not to use the `iptables` command line utility and want to handle network isolation by directly chatting with the kernel over a netlink socket, then you basically have to cargo cult someone else's implementation.

AFAIK the clearest documentation has been reading the Docker networking code.

It's good to see someone enjoying Arc. It's definitely taking a fresh look at what a web browser should be. Just turns out it wasn't for me.
Because what their customers are afraid of might be true, they don't have the assets.
There is a pretty common situation where your operation is legal and you can use some form of financial service but you can't have the provider be publicly known. Say you are a political related org and you need to accept donations. You can't use paypal, stripe, etc because those platforms will receive enough complaints that they will de platform you, but you can take crypto and sell it later in a way the complainers can't work out who to complain to.

This doesn't strictly have to be some instantaneous automated buy and sell. You could accept some % of loss but you don't want to hold for more than a day.
I thought: couldn't the details about the user live on the client? And the user could delete, modify, decide not to use them.

This way you get anonimity and custom results
Will this become an open source project / standard like markdown?

imho that is a really, really important piece of this puzzle.
We're just gonna pretend Warren didn't propose and found the CFPB, are we?
Yeah, I haven't either, but I haven't looked. So, I'm not sure, but I wouldn't expect any "function recognition" tricks, since there isn't really static linking, but I would expect the e.g. memcpy and strcpy implementations in the ahead-of-time translated shared cache to be written in arm64 assembly rather than translated.
That's a lesson Intel had to (re-?)learn with Itanium as well.
Elon Musk outlines ambitious payments vision for Twitter
Thanks! Yep, we support GraphQL.
My friend also somehow had his Zelle compromised and then there also wasn't any ability for recourse. So now he removed all his online money services including Venmo, etc out of fear. Definitely not a great setup even if it is super nice to have instant deposits.
This is a really bad take. Adopting a random pet cause from the news, on an issue that is completely outside one’s sphere of influence, is a recipe for becoming angry and bitter, or idiotically throwing soup on paintings.
Crypto (esp BTC) is a well defined zero or negative sum game. How do you propose /most/ people make a profit?
When people talk about traditional finance, we mostly refer to the existing technologies for issuance of currency, settlement of fiat transactions, and the debt hierarchy.

Of course finance is an incredibly nuanced word. To quote V. Buterin:

> Finance can be viewed as a set of patterns that naturally emerge in many kinds of systems that do not attempt to prevent collusion
Because part of the process of saying that something is wrong is being willing to learn that maybe you are the wrong one.

Ironically, you are wrong.

Not only are there better ways to let people know they're wrong when you're 100% right, but in your example you aren't even sure you're 100% right, yet telling others they're wrong.

Good luck with that :)
It really is astonishing how much faster, responsive and easier to use this is than the standard gmail.
My favorite feature is being able to boost a certain domain up in the the results (or even pin it if you really would like). I often search for different Pokemon and prefer the information that a site like Serebii.net gives me over something like Bulbapedia.
OK, good for you.

Many or even most people would just spend the extra money, not "put [it] in the market and earn significantly more than my mortgage rate." The default rates after the 2008 crash proved that.

EDIT: The parent post is a modern sophisticated financial theory, and it's absolutely correct.

Your great-grandparents, who lived through the Depression, might have a much different take: "Debt is bad. Do not have any debt."

That's irrational, for sure. It probably resonates with you on some level, though.
There are many things I enjoy doing. And I have been well paid for doing one of those things for decades. The fact that I have been employed at it for decades might indicate that I am good at it. So, maybe the trick is to enjoy doing many things so that maybe someone will pay you to do one of those things.
Hint: they're not making people whole, they don't have any assets with which to do so. That's why Binance ran the other direction.
They are a publicly traded company. Their only mission statement that matters is "make money", everything else is PR
CFPB is amazing. I had an employer sponsored HSA account from PNC, and PNC reps were giving me the run around about transferring money to another HSA custodian.

Sent one message on CFPB website describing my problem, and the next day I got a call from a “VP” at PNC letting me know my issue was resolved.

A simple matter that could have been solved if PNC had intended their customer service agents to actually solve my problem, but I assume was left unaddressed because transferring funds out is not of any benefit to PNC.
The Horde README links to a really good talk that nicely demonstrates the library. Worth a watch!
Lambda Calculus is a much better representation of computation than Category Theory. I can teach somebody functional programming using Lambda Calculus fairly quickly. It would take a lot longer using Category Theory. I have studied quite a bit of Category Theory but I would still struggle to explain beta-reduction using Category Theory. Another better system to use IMHO is Martin Luff style Type Theory. Much simpler. Much more useful in practice.
A stateless approach [..] For example, consider NixOS vs. Puppet, Chef, Ansible

What do you mean with "stateless" here, and which of those meet the stateless criteria? I have a hard time imagining any of those without state.
Unfortunately, buying anything from Amazon as a retail customer feels like playing a game of roulette these days.
Perhaps suspension is better than deleting your account. Then nobody can retroactively impersonate you!

Nice loophole I hadn't considered.
By definition, the value of everything rises with inflation. That just tells you that in the absence of inflation, prices now would be lower than they are now. It doesn't tell you whether prices now are higher or lower than they were yesterday.
> As far as GDP, Ethereum spawned an entire new industry with tons of companies paying actual salaries to people (in fiat, if I might add), all of whom bought lattes and cars and houses, and some, I'm sure, also bought Peloton bikes.

Paying developers goes in the cost column, not the benefit column. (If you hire a bunch of developers and pay them to sit around twiddling their thumbs all day, you're not growing the economy but rather damaging it - they could've done something more productive instead). The question is what value the ecosystem produces that people are paying in for. And there's certainly a subjective element to that, but the market price should be a sanity check.

Peloton sells exercise bikes and delivers virtual spin classes etc.. And while you can certainly argue they're overvalued (and I'd agree with you, FWIW), it's easy to see how they're actually doing something valuable in the real world - something that, in a small marginal way, improves peoples lives. We can have a sensible conversation about whether a weekly Peleton class is worth $45/month, but people are paying that much for it, not as a speculative "investment" but as a simple exchange of money for goods and services. Real people are better off - in that they were able to take the class and get fitter or whatever. There's certainly a speculative element on top of that, but at the foundational level there's real value being produced.

Where's the product or service for Ethereum? They've had long enough to come up with one. People used to talk about doing cross-border currency transfers (genuinely useful) or that cat breeding game (potentially genuinely fun), but nowadays fees are too high for either of those to be worthwhile and people don't really talk about them. It's not just excessive speculation on top of a fundamentally sound business; there's simply no there there.
Have never tried arc. Commenting on the article, not the browser.

> For a moment I was mesmerised by its features, how it behaved, and the quirkiness of it.

I think the most important job for a browser is to stay in the background and let the user focus on the website. Chrome does this beautifully. It's elegant, but not eye-catching. It takes up little space for its own UI, and leaves most space to the website.

> At the start, I would use the command bar to quickly make a web search, open a new tab, (try to) launch an existing tab by entering the name of the page, and even perform actions like pinning the current tab.

These are all things you can already do in the addressbar, except for opening a new tab, which is just as easy as opening the command bar.
I wonder what happened to the other comment thread that was here? I have showdead on and now it's not here @dang .
For a power plant, you need to get more energy out than you put in. The best we've done is output that's about 70% of the input energy.

But a plasma rocket works without any fusion at all. If you get that same 70%, then you're doing 70% better than a plasma rocket without fusion.

On top of that, a power plant needs to run reliably for thirty years or so, withstanding intense neutron radiation, and breeding new tritium fuel from lithium. A fusion rocket might only need to fire for several days for a trip to another planet, and won't breed its own tritium.
I wonder what virtualization they are using on mac.
> redemptions go well when desired, people just don't desire

Why hold stables? I’m confused why you’re interested in coin pegged to inflationary fiat. The yield accounts are all scams, so that’s definitely not a good idea.

I turn my camera on whenever possible. If nobody else wants to, that's fine, I'll monopolize the visual communication channel for my own interests then.

I will turn it off for large meetings, unless several other people have theirs on. And I'll turn it off if I have to go to the bathroom or something.
Where are they claiming it's anything but users falling for deceptive messages? The banks won't do anything because the transaction isn't fraudulent.
I had a pentium 3 in a g3 powermac case. If I recall the whole io area just unscrewed, then you just had to mount standoffs and use a cpu cooler that fit under the psu.

Today, with a 3d printer, the mod could be done very elegantly.
