JLG is always good for a good quote or story. From the article,

Today, imagine that you are a young Windows programmer and that I'm a venture capitalist and you come and see me and say, “Mr. Gasse, do I have a deal for you.” “Yes?” “I have the word processor for Windows that will kill Microsoft Word.” What am I to do if I'm a caring venture capitalist? I have to open the drawer and instead of pulling out the checkbook I should pull out the Magnum .357 and give you the coup de grace because this will stop what otherwise would be a long, ugly, expensive agony for your family.

Maybe this is true when you have an Angular js 1.0 project on Node.js and want to update to Angular 15. But that's not because of Node.js. I manage a ton of older Node.js projects and there is little to no friction.
NGL, until the last sentence I thought you were going in a completely different direction with this comment. I haven't seen Isle of Dogs, but the rest of that sounds like garbage / kids' stuff.
Thank you, but I have to disagree here.

Yes, it's true that sometimes the line between document and app is blurred. But I would argue it's blurred exactly because we use things designed for document to make apps.

Take "links" for example. In web apps, practically every action item is a "link" - either a "<a href=" or <button " that opens another link. But it's not because these things are links - it's because there is no other option to do it without links. If all is you have is a hammer, everything becomes a nail. In a normal app (made in a UI framework designed for that, and not in hypertext engine), instead of links you would use events or function calls or some similar concept.

Likewise, "external" links. You can open external links from normal apps. You don't need to make app a HTML page for that.

So it's not a false dichotomy. If you have ever used desktop/tablet/mobile apps that have blog/comments functionality, you unlikely to think about those screens and functionality "as a document". No, it's just another screen of the app, that renders pixels and handles user input. You only think about it as a document when everything you have is "HTML documents".
Ask HN: Pixel 4a 5G phones not charging with November Security Update?
I have a Pixel 4a 5G phone that recently updated to the November security patch. It no longer charges from the wall. A very similar issue was reported on reddit a few days ago:

I’ve looked into the chemistry you’d use to turn a carbonaceous asteroid into useful products such as plastic films or material for a biosphere and the old C1 chemistry (manufactured gas and PVC from acetlyene) and the new stuff for utilization of CO2 turns out to be very relevant.

For instance you are going to get CO2 as a waste product and you will not throw it away because it is precious so you will add energy to recycle it. You might just get O2 from processing of metals and stones, burn the carbon and feed the CO2 into some system for further processing. The difference with earth is you have 24 hour sunlight and the anility to concentrate it with weightless mirrors.

Key passages that highlight what Tesla is doing wrong:

"The moment highlighted the difference between Tesla’s self-driving technology and “robotaxi” services being developed by companies like Waymo, owned by the same parent company as Google, and Cruise, backed by General Motors."

"The robotaxi companies are trying to reduce these unexpected moments by tightly controlling where and how a car can drive. Using laser sensors called lidar, they build three dimensional digital maps of individual neighborhoods that give cars a fine grained understanding of their environment. Then they spend months or even years testing cars in these contained areas."

Elon Musk appears to have a Reality Distortion Field that's preventing him from realizing what is possible with today's technology. The fact that he is summarily firing everyone that disagrees with him (see recent public activity on his Twitter feed) is probably not helping.
I've been a developer going on 10 years now. Do not give up. Stick with it. My first job offer right out of college was for 35k. Sometimes it takes a while to get a job offer. Sometimes you accept a job offer and find out a week or month in, its not a good fit. However know somewhere out there, there is a good fit. Aim for one where you are happy and the company is happy.
You can put that clause in your license! Something like:

If you use this software in a commercial product, you are required to
make an attempt to send me an e-mail letting me know about it,
because it's just nice to know.

Of course that would piss off the lawyers because now if a developer uses your software and doesn't e-mail you, you could sue them. But it's not like big companies always respect licenses anyway :)

That fuel cell is more like an engine than a battery. You have to get O2 into it, get waste heat out (harder than the engine because the temperature is lower), keep it from drowning in the water it makes, etc.

Based on your descriptions, it's hard for me to conclude that these books are "targeting children sexuality" as the OP put it. Teens are--shock of shocks!--sometimes sexually active, even by choice. My brother was sexually active in the 4th grade. Is it that weird for literature to represent those kinds of experiences? I can see where one would make it generally unavailable to the very young, or maybe only with parental permission, but does this seem like a project to "turn kids gay" (as alleged by some one star amazon reviews)? No, lol.
This is actually exactly backward. What the paper is trying to quantify is how many people are trying to use bitcoin as an investment, versus how many are trying to use it as a currency or other financial tool (the whole thing about how many of the investors are underwater is a small point of the paper that Gizmodo is fixating on because of Gizmodo's preexisting hatred of crypto).

What the paper finds (and we can certainly quibble with any paper) is evidence that the majority of people who bought Bitcoin in the 2015-2022 period did so in patterns that suggest that they're interested in an investment asset, not in a currency.

> I wish I had this built into my mind

One thing I am realizing over the years is that while it might seem so, the best “social people” don’t actually have this built into their mind, they have some external system for capturing facts like the OP, and do the work to maintain it.

Whether that is writing the name of the person you met at dinner into your diary when you get home (including info like spouse/children), or calendar invites for birthdays of everyone you know, or whatever.

Reading “How to win friends and influence people” gives the same broad advice.

As you say, it’s a lot of work (though it might look effortless to interlocutors). But the flip-side of that observation is that anyone can get better by just using these practices. (Of course, social people are by definition more interested in this sort of study.)
It is interesting to read the termination notice referring to "violating company policy". For that to be true, there needs to be an explict policy prescribing a behavior they have violated. More likely,they were fired because Musk felt like it. Or did he really review and communicate a new policy since he took over?
Framed this way (selecting for people who had bought an asset which had a rise and spike) this makes sense. But I think a key difference between BTC and more traditional assets is that for other assets, one typically has information from which to judge whether it is over or underpriced.

If in late 2021, I had two friends Alice and Bob, who were enthusiastic and so far successful in shoveling money into TSLA and BTC respectively, and who are both telling trying to convince me to follow their lead, how can I judge their suggestions? I can look at Tesla's quarterly reports, and rabbithole into information about other company's EV efforts, and see analysts try to make projections about future revenue. I'd be left with a lot of uncertainty, but I can make a good faith effort to try to judge what an appropriate price is based on future earnings, and whether the current price is too high or too low. With BTC one doesn't have that. Even if prices had increased lately, how would one judge whether that was high or low relative to where prices _should_ be? Today, after a period when prices have fallen a lot, are they high still? Would $10k be too high? $1k? About a decade ago it was roughly $11 and 2 years before that it was $0.20. There's no way to judge value, only price.
Not FTX - but I know Coinbase has stated in their earnings report that they will use user deposits to pay debtors back first in the case of bankruptcy.

There has to be a learning curve. Building a manufacturing company, a first production facility and a car at the same time is VERY HARD.

You are doomed to low volumes as you attempt to figure out the design, so you might as well charge for it. Tesla followed the same model, they just didn't go deep enough. Now Tesla is backtracking with the roadster and they are directly competing on the segment.

I have faith in Lucid, they'll deliver eventually. Also, there is a ton of turnover from Tesla to Lucid so the team is strong.

> Does the CRDT require synchronized clocks?

No. CRDT are Commutative. You can apply a set of updates in any order and achieve the same result. This is a core feature.

"Provably, replicas of any CRDT converge to a common state that is equivalent to some correct sequential execution. As a CRDT requires no synchronisation, an update executes immediately, unaffected by network latency, faults, or disconnection"

>> Most bitcoin investors never move their coins off the exchange

>I'm curious: What is your source for this statistic?

They have no reason to.

Unless the investor is specifically working on some HFT arbitrage scheme between exchanges, then they don't even need to move crypto out of the exchange.

Also given the complexity of rolling your own wallet, it's just a risk that's not worth it when KYC exchanges are relatively stable.
I absolutely adore the Game Boy modding scene that’s exploded in the last few years.

Case overhauls like this or the Boxypixel slab pictured in the article, numerous backlit high-res IPS screen replacements, mods to improve sound, Li-ion battery packs with USB charging. And that’s to say nothing of Analogue or the MiSTer project, creating full FPGA reimplementations of the hardware.

It’s a really cool example of what some very creative and passionate people can do with commodity technology. The only downside is it’s actually becoming quite pricey to get original hardware.
You have to disbelieve the efficient markets hypothesis to an unreasonable degree to imagine that the kind of information you're talking about isn't baked into TSLA.

And people certainly forecast -- with varying success -- the future of BTC. You can read their analyses and disagree/agree with them.

This isn't to imply that BTC isn't a volatile and risky asset. Of course it is! But some people want to buy volatile and risky assets.

This reminds me of the unfortunate death of CNET reporter, James Kim in 2006.

Kim and his family were stranded on a rural route traveling from Portland to San Francisco. He went out in search of help and succumbed to hypothermia.

It was unusual, however there are "backcountry" incidents that don't necessarily involve intentionally setting out into remote areas.

I suspect, being a tech reporter, Kim would have had a satellite SOS enabled smartphone if it had been on the market.

What to do when your Mac has a kernel panic
Sure but do we need a push or pull based model. Ads are pushed into our attention. Google searches and "research" are pull based. If you solve the pull based model the king's doctor just looks it up, discovers something exists, and obtains the treatment.

Recommendations are similar to ads in this regard as well. Maybe blurring the lines between the two depending on how the algo is designed. I'd personally be in favor of recommendation type approaches with combinations of human curation, and an adjustable spectrum of push/pull based results; and the ability to swap between these on a whim as needed.
I guess something I don't know about employment law, everyone says in a ~right to work~ (Correction: At-will employment state), you can fire someone for any reason, but can you lie about the reason?

Some cyclists do already use iPhones with the Strava app as bike computers but they don't work very well. The third-party mounts are kind of janky, battery life is terrible, screen visibility is poor in some lighting conditions, and they don't support the ANT+ industry standard for common sensors such as power meters. An iPhone is adequate for casual use, but Garmin isn't really trying to target that market anyway. Those casual cyclists don't care about recording precise GPS tracks.

The latest high-end Garmin devices do support multi-frequency GPS just as accurate as the iPhone 14. Those chips aren't included in Garmin's mid-range products like Edge 5XX/8XX series bike computers but will probably be added in the next refresh.
