VS code has the best remote features I have ever seen, good enough that I once got annoyed VS code had freezed just because the network died, then _realized I was doing the work over the network_. I hope it will stay a local app with powerful remote capabilities.
Called it here back when it launched. Streaming video of a slightly more powerful browser in a browser (electron) never made sense to me.

And the few people who really had that usecase could just use a lightweight container running chromium + guacamole on a nearby server. Okay I'm sure Mighty used cool tech to make it faster than just that (idk how it worked but maybe they were transmitting changed HTML) but at its core the idea was not something normal people and 99% engineers would ever consider. Anyone rich enough to pay for it would just pay for a more powerful machine.

Anyways, they said they have 50% of VC money left and will be using it to create an online stable diffusion thingy which atleast fifteen startups are doing already including stability AI themselves. How can they differentiate ? Can they just use leftover VC money to make a completely different thing ?
OP is talking about dude-bros taking steroids so they can pump and dump women.
What is your "acceptable number" of humans?
This rings true for me as well.

One thing I've really had to get over is "illusory inferiority" - I am objectively an extremely good programmer, as demonstrated by my accomplishments and career path, but I constantly underestimate the value I provide to my employer because the contributions I make don't always feel important.

As an analogy, I can imagine a slightly bored senior sushi chef who is a master at preparing fugu (poisonous blowfish). The value they provide is huge, but they've done it for so long that it does not provide a challenge.
not to get down in the weeds but carrots aren't that fibrous, but their *available fiber content goes up 2.5x when you cook them, from about 2g per stick to 5g. leafy greens, especially kale, are better for filling up. and you still need protein and fat on top of that.
Ok, so who wants to work with me on an old-school, question-everything, due-diligence, _real_ journalism newspaper. Just think, we could sell to the entire HN market!

I think he made a couple hundred million on this trade and half a billion moe in alameda when things were going well then took investment funds denominated in either coins or USD and invested those into FTX expansion and more levered long crypto pump and dumps and then took those proceeds and did more pump and dumps and direct investments in things like robin hood and other shitcoins.

I think most of their "market making" was probably using connections to do pump and dumps of various coins.

activities like this made huge gains but since the BTC peak a lot of the same activities have been burning a lot of capital and then you end up needing recapitalization
I think one of Mighty's competitors is pivoting and moving into that market (https://www.whist.com/)
Exactly, it's good human advice too. Advice on how to be a passionate, opinionated force in your industry while still being a hood, compassionate human. Advice on how to have complex relationships, how to keep that sparkle in your eye, how to parse through all that it is to be human and give the audience (customer) what they want while also getting what you need for your own humanity.
How are they picking a hill? Seems like they are just stating an objective claim without putting any judgement to it. Even if it turns out her father had little to do with it doesn't mean she's less of a crook. I don't see any reason to be partisan about this and embrace every single accusation like supreme truth. There's plenty of it as it is.

> even the law does not tolerate screaming 'Fire!' in a crowded theater

That is not and has never been the law of the land. The quote comes from the dicta (commentary), not holding (ruling), of a case that prevented people from distributing flyers that opposed conscription into World War I. And that case was also eventually overturned.
No; it's not. Cryptocurrency exists as an alternative to the government-granted monopoly on the financial sector, which consumes a huge amount of value from every transaction in the economy, causing a great deal of unneccesary misery for regular people.

This is the story of financial sector parasites hijacking a legitimate hope for emancipation from them.

I ran an open source project management system for years and I'll say: Good luck.

In short, everyone has their own dreams, preferences, (perceived)needs, and workflows and they are usually unwilling to tweak their own approach and would rather have a tool that fits them. They may be right that their "needs" are truly needs instead of just preferences but either way, you end up with a swarm of nasty little variations that are meaningless for vast swathes of the space. That's why any list of "project management tools" has 100+ entries and is still incomplete.

~10 years back, I realized that most of the people who are open minded enough tweaked their own processes to flip to something like Trello (as I did a few years later). They're still unsatisfied - I wish Trello had intercard dependencies and per-checklist item due dates - but making due.

Happy to offer more info and advice, feel free to ping me.
Part of it is definitely plastics. Specifically plasticizing agents such as BPA that mimic estrogen, though BPA is far from the only one. The plasticizers that have been used to replace BPA have not been well studied, and they are similar molecules. There is no evidence they are more safe.

Ever eat or drink something hot out of a plastic container? Ever touch thermal paper such as a receipt? You just received a dose of synthetic estrogen.

Hopefully there will come a time when greater society decides to care about this and limits plastics in food manufacturing and storage.
Even an offline game is dangerous. What if the save files are backed up and that storage is compromised? This allows an attacker to escalate access from one computer or service to others.

Although I follow him, I get such a feeling of arrogance from his tweets (similar to the Repl.it guy) that, although the failure of a startup is sad, I can't help feeling some satisfaction from this development (also partly from the vindication as I was certain that this wouldn't work as soon as it was announced).
Evolution would fix this, especially if it was truly severe it would be 'fixed' even more quickly but I doubt people can accept the consequences.
Ask HN: Why not use “% WYSIWYG/LaTeX” to indicate resemblance to LaTeX output?
The idea is to have a similarity measure between what you see while editing and the output that you care about (e.g., LaTeX output, HTML output, etc.).

For example, such a similarity measure could show numerically just how much what you see while editing in TeXmacs is closer to LaTeX output than what you see while in editing in LyX.

For LaTeX output, maybe TeXmacs would have "90% WYSIWYG/LaTeX" while LyX would have "50% WYSIWYG/LaTeX".

For HTML output, maybe TeXmacs would have "80% WYSIWYG/HTML" while LyX would have "50% WYSIWYG/HTML".

Do you think this would be an improvement over using the term WYSIWYG?

Also, how might one define the similarity measure for this purpose?
Not quite as close as Slack and Monday.com, but yeah, it could plausibly cause confusion.
But knee-jerking is so much easier!
That same logic applies to women then, no?
I created https://titanotes.com, an online tool/service to encrypt and store text data using a set of keys known only to the sender. The sender then shares the message URL and keys with the intended recipient via a different channel. Messages are stored for 72hrs before being automatically deleted. No client-side information (browser fingerprints, IP address, user-agents etc) is collected.
So far, it has processed just over 2k messages in 3 months.

Why did I create it? I suddenly had a lot of time after leaving an exhausting corporate role.
Is it perfect? No. A couple of things could be done better/differently.

The future? Knowing that text-only data is limiting, I'm working on:
-encrypting attachments - images, PDFs etc.
-customizable retention periods

Yes, I know there are existing products serving the same purpose but hey, why not?

If that were true, the author would have retired, because they were a Google engineer when they wrote lld, which is bonkers fast compared to gold, Google's previous linker.
I kind of think this is because Tesla people looked at Apple.com, and (roughly) copied it.

They are smart that way. Other companies would do well to try something like that. But they aren't that smart.
that's a utopian vision. we don't need a perfect meritocracy. majority of parents would do anything to put their kids ahead of others. i would help people I know and have relationships with first. it doesn't work out all the time.

As a technology native, a quiet environment is the same feeling as chilling in the zone (if working on something interesting). Its not a shared experience for sure.

I enjoy golf the same way (chlling in the zone during a good workout, similar to a runners high).

I also happened to enjoy over 20,000 one-on-one interactions with work experience and technology, with the majority of it face-to-face.

Being "all people'd out (not tired of people, just not seeking empty calories for the sake of it)" is a 21st century perk.

The 1st world has always enjoyed "peace and quiet" for their own personal reasons :)

A money market fund is federally regulated to be 30% liquid per week.

Because of this, it is very difficult to build a MMF that has much better returns than your competitors. In particular, most MMFs are in-and-around 3.6% APY returns.

These crypto-coins are promising 6%, 10%, 18%, or 20% returns APY. Spoiler alert: they aren't being run like a well regulated MMF.

--------

BTW, a money market fund is a mutual fund with regulations such that 1 share in the MMF is equal to $1. They are the already legal stablecoins you've been looking for.

We can look at the performance of say, VMFXX, which has been $1.00000000 per share for the last 3 or 4 decades. Meanwhile, even the biggest Tether stablecoins floats to $0.998 or $1.001 regularly. Certainly doesn't show very much confidence in the scheme.

This 6% staking or whatever, it's not stable. Never has been, never will be. You can't offer a better rate than the risk free rate unless you are willing to take on risk.
> I want cryptocoins to return to the days about solving financial problems in new innovative ways.

What problems other than "how to sell drugs to suburban teenager online", "how to blackmail companies", and "how to run giant global ponzi schemes" has crypto actually solved in its 13 years of existence?

13 years after the invention of the WWW, there were almost a billion users, and it was increasingly transforming the world. If any of these crypto/blockchain ideas were actually useful, they would have been widely adopted by now for more than just criminal activity. The reality is that it's an interesting idea, but it's utterly useless for any worthwhile use cases.

> TikTok, which is now either the first or second most popular website on the internet, is nominally "social media." But while anyone can make TikToks, the platform is designed for passive consumption

This is wrong way to see it. Tiktok and yt are for broadcast, but the socializing of the same people happens elsewhere.

What does "passive consumption" mean, there is no such thing as active consumption
Strong disagree.

Many small companies or even developers have clear and clean websites.

It's not a question of money. It's a question of taste.
That's an important clarification, yeah. However, SBF did seem to receive $1.8 Billion in funding[^1]. Obviously that's an order of magnitude lower, but still an enormous sum and worth investigating in the autopsy.

Xbox, the hardware product, makes Microsoft almost no money. Sony actually loses money every time someone buys a PS5 (same thing happened with the PS3) and Nintendo Switch margins are so thin that the first revision made no money after shipping and handling.

The reality is, nobody has hardware margins like Apple. They sell an iPhone at full price, they pocket 40% of the MSRP. Part of those proceeds go towards marketing new iPhones, whereas Microsoft and Google don't really get the yields to justify that. Just look at the 2022 earnings call and you'll see how wide the disparity is.

What hardware do you use to talk to the box under your desk? How do you work remotely with this setup, and what if the network VPN goes down?

Working in this way depends a lot on the stack you’re working with. For languages like Java or C#, where you can’t really work productively without an IDE, browser-based VSCode won’t cut it for most people. (I’d prefer a JetBrains IDE over VSCode too.) If your language doesn’t have a good remote debugging story, a remote-first stack won’t cut it.

This setup with a box under your desk doesn’t sound reasonable to me from a financial side either. According to your profile, you’re at Google, so I assume the hardware you use to access the box is a Chromebook. Sure, those are dirt cheap, but is a desktop + Chromebook combo really cheaper than one reasonably priced PC laptop with specs similar to the desktop?

I think I’m still happy with my beefy (spec-wise and kilogram-wise) laptop, having the ability to do everything directly on the machine (with no network round-trip for every operation), and still being able to do things if the VPN or the network goes down (with limitations, of course).
Its java. As long as you make a fat jar it will work on that OS.

Of course if you use this feature then the only difference it will make is that everybody has to use the jetbrains IDE.
> Give the project to the community.

Why? Did the community give to him? It certainly sounds like it hasn't. What obligations does one have to a community that doesn't give back?

> There are so many better ways to handle such a situation.

Better for who? You? Or him?

If open-source communities want open-source, they're going to need to come to grips with the need for people to eat, and to do that they are at minimum going to need to pass the hat. If they're not going to do that, this happens, and telling somebody who isn't you what they should do for "the community when "the community" doesn't support them is, frankly, wrong verging on immoral.

How would you break in to this without going through school again to get certified?
You might not have noticed how many shows and movies have disappeared from streaming services over the last few years, but many people have.

At the end of 2016, Netflix has 4335 movies, in May 2021 they had 3622. If what you wanted to watch was one of those 713 movies, you might have been inspired to think, hey, maybe I don't want to rely on byzantine licensing agreements.

In addition, while several people are fixated on transcoding on this page, for reasons unclear to me, one hugely popular feature of Plex is sharing libraries with others, so you can grant your parents access to your library. It's not necessarily just "you" watching movies and show over again.

True story: Friday night I was at happy hour with former coworkers, and I brought up the movie _Attack the Block_. Turns out it's not available on any streaming service. Not a single one! You know where it is available? My Plex sever.

And that movie is worth watching again.
Any technology (physical, social, philosophical) we create has the ability to wreak havoc on equilibrium (natural, societal, or otherwise). We are fundamentally unequipped to restore equilibrium because that process takes the unwilling participation of all agents. So I think all technologies have a way of creating an existential threat, obviously some more than others.

My own internal sci-fi version of the future involves us creating replicating but non-intelligent technology that outlasts us.

Another free sci-fi premise while I’m on a roll is consciousness becoming such a good interpreter of reality (that sees everything so clearly) such that it evaporates. The map has become the territory.

/confused rambling
Yep. I had an unbelievable sweet tooth since I was a teenager. I was having 10+ cans of coke per day on top of multiple king size candy bars. When I was ~30 I did a 36 hour fast and afterwards has 0 desire to have anything sweet for the very first time in my adult life.

It came back a few weeks later, but over a few years I tried fasting again and it would go away every single time. Now I try to avoid sweets as much as I can but when old habits creep back in I just have a fast and it goes away.

I don't really fast for any reason other than knowing it will take the sweet tooth away—and generally make me want to eat healthier.

Oh, for sure. All of these websites are frankly awful because they don't offer realistic comparisons between their competitors or list the names of the workers they exploited to bring you your brilliant grey brick. It's wholly a matter of taste when it comes to offering a complete shopping experience, and arguably none of these companies are equipped to provide a complete breakdown of what you're buying.

Pragmatically though, it will always come down to money. Apple sure wants you to believe it's a matter of taste though, rest assured their marketing spend reflects that.
Hasn't cloud compute always been far more expensive than local hardware? I don't see any arbitrage opportunity here.

Twenty years ago VDI wanted to replace desktop PCs with VMware ($$$) running on quad-socket servers ($$$) with fibre channel SAN storage ($$$). I didn't understand the economics then and I don't today.
