Employers are looking for good programmers, since a bad programmer can do active damage to a codebase. They are willing to pay a higher price to try and avoid those situations so offering work at a lower rate isn't going to be attractive to those companies.

There are places like Upwork and fiverr where people are hiring cheap programmers to work on things like their small wordpress site. They aren't fun to work on and there is a lot of competition from lower cost of living parts of the world, but they do exist.

Once you have a "foot in the door" and some proven industry experience you'll find getting work a lot easier. It took me about six months after I first started applying to secure my first development job in 2019, and now I have tons of recruiters messaging me daily about new opportunities.

I've never gotten very many views on this article

https://ontology2.com/essays/ClassifyingHackerNewsArticles/

although it definitely points to way to making an RSS reader which can learn to show you articles you find interesting. (You need some kind of clustering though to deal with avalanches of articles on the same topic...)

People go ahead making failing RSS readers with the same failing interface that failed in 1999 despite the fact that text classification technology was good enough in 1999 to have made something better. To be fair that prototype needs maybe 500 judgements to start getting good results but with dimensional reduction and clustering I think it could start looking relevant at around 50 judgements. One trouble is most people will give up in frustration after it doesn't learn after 5 judgements which might be possible if you think of it as a really hard game of "20 questions".
I don't agree with that analogy. For example, templates were for sure complex, and they're very much a complete feature. That is, they haven't been made more complex over time. If we accept that the committee has already dug themselves into a hole, what they're doing is digging themselves out by digging out the entire field to the same depth, thus eliminating the hole originally dug, which I think it's a perfectly reasonable strategy.
> Sure, but it's also a fallacy to assume that nothing bad can happen in the long-term just because it appears promising in the short-term.

Ketamime has already been widely used for decades, in much larger doses than whats being discussed. We're not talking "short-term" here.

Even that is a misrepresentation of the history of heroin. I guess it could appear that way if you take the Bayers advertising materials at face value (but hopefully you're not doing that). The dangers of opiates - and of morphine derivatives specifically - were well established by the time heroin was released.
I would build a self hosted Heroku clone that has web hosting, async tasks, cron, and it can automatically cluster hosts and distribute apps. Self hosted Postgres and S3 (encrypted to those who can can reach the machine physically and wiretaps) that can cluster to in site and offsite hosts and a network that can easily link them (Tailscale clone I guess). If I upload a video with notes, the db and object are stored in multiple locations before the 200 OK. An cron job can trigger, start a 24 gb instance, analyse a video using ML, write to the db and stop.
This was asking about energy efficiency, though. The vast majority of the energy ever consumed by an animal is used in processes other than growth. The ability to grow meat without it needing to be part of an organism that has to be able to also grow a skeleton, reproductive system, be able to move and think, and other energetically expensive processes in addition to growing muscle, seemingly has to be possible for less energy cost than supporting an entire animal lifecycle.

Whether it can be done entirely using solar is another question, but free-grazing animals that only consume energy from local grass are not anywhere near prolific enough to feed the entire planet.

Those dreamlike images are human-generated.

And they can be narrowed in focus.

You will see:

Animated series generated from words and text, no labour needed. Just make the characters, the base models, a few demos. South Park has a staff to do all the animation - no more - now they'll just tweak a few things.

You will see some amazing, raw creative stories come out of this that are going to be entertaining in ways we haven't fathomed. That may be a bit of a meme.

I suggest it may fundamentally alter low-grade creative content. Basically, second tier fiction I think will be a total commodity. So cheezy romance novels, fantasy - I'll bet in 10 years AI is as good as most mediocre authors.

They are already generating news articles. Bloomberg has an AI creating articles. Basically to 'verbalize and organize facts'.

One thing coming I think nobody is talking about is lighting and it will change everything. Lighting on set is a massive pain, everything revolves around it. Being able to use AI for lighting will change production costs dramatically.
I think that’s any close relationship: the internets like to say if you don’t get 50/50 - hit the lawyer, but reality is it is never 50/50. You won’t be in any long term relationship if you don’t accept that.

As an adult, I’ve lived in a number of places, but as far as I’m concerned, I’ve only ever had one real home. My home is my family. My home is Barack.

But here’s the thing—our marriage has never been perfectly 50-50. One of us is always needing more or giving more. We have to be willing to listen to each other, honestly and without defensiveness. Only then, can we evolve together.

Over the years, a lot of young people have asked me about marriage. And my response usually goes something like this: You have to prepare yourself for long stretches of discord and discomfort. You have to learn how to make real compromises in the way you’ve lived as an individual. Glamorizing a relationship while you’re dating will lead you straight to difficulty once you’re married. You can’t paper over problems when you’re living with someone day in and day out.

So you’ve got to ask yourself: What are you trying to get out of this relationship? Have you truly thought it through? Do you want a wedding or do you want a lifelong partnership? Those are two very different things. Together, you are answering the question: Who are we and who do we want to be?

I've seen both compression and NPT. I only have three faucet-replacement data points to work from, but I haven't developed a feeling for why manufacturers will choose NPT in some cases.

Compression fittings are pretty straightforward, IMO. No complaints from me about those.

I think most people don't regard something they could easily—if tediously—do by hand without ever so much as thinking of a mathematical symbol or operation (I mean, I guess they do a bit of you're sorting by numbers, but "is this number/date higher or lower?" only barely qualifies as math for most people, if at all) as algorithmic, even if it entirely is, by the strict definition.
Odd, all I can say is that that hasn't been the experience of my friend-group, or my 50 year-old tech-phobic cousin. I haven't played the official Zombicide module mind you, I'm mostly sticking to games that are free in the steam workshop.

I read this as a problem with how the term "algorithm" is used by / when communicating to the layperson (basically, the general problem of "buzzwords"). It's just being simplified; possibly overmuch but that's not relevant to the layperson's complaints. I think it's fair to say that the layperson understands that they don't want an algorithm which manipulates them to spend more time "engaged" than they otherwise would.

I do think there is value to algorithms which incidentally increase engagement as argued by the article (e.g. capturing and isolating email spam), but there is understandable push-back against an algorithm that is, additionally or not, being optimized for pupils pointed at screen.

It’s not. Twitter is a publishing medium. Let’s be real about that.
If this prevents one quarter of deforestation it would still be a massive help. Furthermore, the agriculture- lumber difference in deforestation is not that clear cut. When some disgusting criminal in Brazil cuts down a bunch of rainforest for pasture he is also taking into account the resulting lumber in his profit plans. In fact the lumber is probably a big part of the criminal enterprise because it provides an immediate profit whereas raising cows provides profit only after a couple of years. And I am sure our criminal needs the immediate cash flows to pay off Bolsonaro and other corrupt politicians and to hire thugs to chase away protesters and natives.

So having lab made wood on massive scale will definitely significantly help with deforestation even the so called agricultural one.

Cultured meats or even vegetarian meat substitutes would help as well, but one does not prevent the other and thus one should not be used as an argument against the other. Furthermore, cultured wood should be easier to make than cultured meats. Nobody has to eat the wood, so you do not have to get the taste of the wood right. You just need to get the correct mechanical properties right, which should be much easier.

Generally I am very puzzled by this type of arguments against environmental improvements: A is a bad idea because B would make a bigger difference. Well if A would make a significant difference, and A is not in conflict with B, than why not do both?

Send invoices/payroll on the Solana blockchain (YC)
Hey guys I work as a SWE for a YC company called Coinbooks. We just shipped an invoicing/payroll solution on the solana blockchain. You can run a payroll with USDC, SOL, and USDT at the same time, you will have a full history of all the payrolls you have run, as well as email notifications after running a successful payroll. Let me know if you're interested in using this. Happy to set you guys up. Thanks so much.
I frames are full frames as far as I know - they are considered keyframes because you CAN physically jump to them. In between frames are going through temporal compression (all frames are going through image compression individually as well) which means they rely on the previous and next frame for information.
Meta fined €265M over data protection breach that hit more than 500M users
1) your externalizing the VAST environmental costs from grazing: methane production, vast amounts of land dedicated to grazing, plus likely there is still farming/crops to feed them over winter. Googling leads to (accuracy undetermined) that 41% of land is dedicated in the US to meat production.

2) you are assuming (because you externalize / push onto the future generations the cost) that grazing is the most efficient means for meat tissue production. I doubt it is. If artificial meat can beat cows wandering around eating grass for three years by a substantial margin, which I think is theoretically possible, then grazing will be a niche production.

This technology is desperately needed for climate change mitigation, on the scale of electrification of consumer transport. It's not just the methane and farming, it's also all that land that could be used as carbon sinks and biodiversity.

https://www.arespectfullife.com/2018/08/05/41-of-u-s-land-is...

The big issue is that the world wants meat. If we can reduce the carbon footprint by 1/10th, which I think is possible, then it will be a very good think for a sustainable human race.
I should clarify that the M.S. is available in some departments as a terminal degree, or is awarded along the way towards a Ph.D. upon completion of coursework and admission to candidacy (oral/written exams), as is the M.Phil. The main thing is knowing what the degree was awarded for at the end of the day, which may or may not matter to the degree holder or the employer.

In my doctoral program in chemistry, the M.S. was "awarded" to Ph.D. candidates who did not pass orals and was referred to as "the booby prize." Having been admitted to candidacy and completing my doctorate, I have only a Ph.D. in chemistry and not a Master's of any kind.

Having said all that, almost every M.S. I've seen during interviews over the past 20 years has been a terminal degree lacking a thesis - but I am a scientist, and I see mostly physics/chemistry/geology/mathematics resumes and not engineering or CS ones.
For the purposes of building a fair random number generator, obviously so. Especially if you include having everyone using the device also understand and agree that it is fair.

However, the question here is simply directly the question "How thick does a coin have to be to equal chances of landing on its side or either face?", in which case changing the design to something else is simply to answer a different question. At best you might try to extract something useful from the alternate formulation to bring back to your original question, but in this case I wouldn't see any value; we already know that we can construct n-sided symmetric objects from curved faces for n >= 1 (if you consider a sphere a 1 sided die) and it doesn't help the original question much.
MDMA and psilocybin (magic mushrooms) and both in later stages of research and could be approved by FDA. From what information that I have read, one treatment of magic mushrooms can have a profound impact for one's life time. As I understand it, ketamine treatments don't last that long, so one needs to continue them. As far as magic mushrooms being toxic, they can't find a limit where it is toxic. The biggest problem as I understand it is that one might have a bad trip that could cause something like PTSD; so proper screening and preparation is needed.

Yes, and my personal progression from C to C++ to Java and other languages led me to design Virgil so that it has no UB, has well-defined semantics, and yet crashes reliably on program logic bugs giving an exact stack traces, but unlike Java and JavaScript, compiles natively and has some systems features.

Having well-defined semantics means that the chain of logic steps taken by the compiler in optimizing the program never introduces new behaviors; optimization is not observable.

You are using a very non-standard definition of capital.

> As a result creating and destroying money doesn't create or destroy wealth.

I'll give you a MacBook, which is a durable good you can use to produce goods and services, if you go to the bank, withdraw all of your money, and then set it on fire. This is a good deal for you. Your wealth will not change from setting the money on fire, as destroying money does not destroy wealth, and you will have a capital good that will increase the amount of wealth you have.
Show HN: Bulwark Passkey – Software-Based FIDO Device for 2FA/WebAuthN
Hey y'all,

This is something I've been working on for a few months. It is a passkey system, similar to Apple Passkeys or a Yubikey, but it is entirely software based so you can sync credentials between devices.

Passkeys (and FIDO devices in general) allow you to use public keys instead of passwords or codes to authenticate. For instance, you can just click "Approve" on the device/software instead of having to copy a code, and there are no passwords to phish. This is a new piece of tech, so website support for logins are still limited, but it can currently be used for 2FA anywhere a Yubikey can be used.

Bulwark Passkey emulates the USB device in software, which allows you to sync credentials as well as copy them out. This is less secure than a dedicated hardware device, where credentials can never by copied or removed from the device, but it is much, much more secure and usable than passwords or one-time codes.

Please take a look, and I appreciate any feedback you might have!
The logical flaw is in feed ratios. More feed required to produce less edible mass, therefore more land, water, resources, etc used. Feed production is also typically monoculture in the US. Chickens are actually some of the most efficient animals in this regard: https://awellfedworld.org/feed-ratios/
I have more than 500 dives under my weight belt, and I have a (regular) Apple watch, but I'm skeptical.

First, there's no mention of Nitrox anywhere (except in a screenshot). Most of the serious folks use this mix (basically, air enriched with some more oxygen) for their dives, it's unclear if — or to what extent — this supports Nitrox.

Second, there's no mention of the decompression algorithm they use. Buhlmann, Suunto RGBM, VPM are examples of algorithms where the assumptions about human physiology are backed by hundreds of thousands of dives, but what is driving this specific piece is kind of a mystery. As this device comes under "life support equipment" category, I would love to see more information about that.

Third, battery life is a concern here, while it almost never is with dedicated dive computers. My main device requires a trip to Switzerland every 10-15 years, and my backup device is serviced locally every 3 years or so; having a "two full days battery life" somewhat pales in comparison.

Finally, $10 a month is pretty expensive, especially when it comes on top of $700 down payment. Unclear what happens when you stop paying. I don't doubt that there are people who don't worry about that kind of money: the watch blogs are full with people discussing diving with their Rolexes and Omegas, but I have never seen anyone doing that in real world. 90% of the people use dive computers (owned or rented), and 90% of the rest use basic G-Shocks; you are lucky to see anyone with a mechanical timepiece (which almost always happens to be made by Seiko).
I definitely don't want an air purifier in the same package as the air quality sensors, because they'll be measuring the "microclimate" around the active air purifier, which is not representative of the air quality elsewhere in the room.
Your original response was an insinuation that banking systems in general are based on fraud, and that gold should be the basis of monetary value. In fact, the case has been proven that gold is a poor basis of monetary value and that banking systems, when properly regulated, are not fraudulent, or are very rarely fraudulent.

The reply to that was to explain that regulation was the key to maintaining a stable banking system.

You then ignore all that an conflate unregulated banking and regulated banking as equal.

I hope you understand that this makes your argument dishonest, and that you attempt to avoid this in the future.

You're correct, it's not a reasonable generalization. See my reply above.

Right, but we don't even know if their hypothetical concern is relevant yet. The comment could well have been "will this product taste the same as normal chicken?" as a top-level comment on this post. Instead it's "in the hypothetical case that this doesn't taste the same as normal chicken, which we don't know yet, then neither will mammoth or giant sloth taste the same as their ancient walking versions".
The problem with all processed oils is that all the fiber and the rest have been striped away, leaving only the extremely calorie dense oil. Processed oil like that takes up so little space in the stomach that's not filling, making it easy to eat too much food overall. At least in the US, this is compounded by so many processed foods having added oil as a primary ingredient or a cheap filler.

The healthiest way to ingest seed oils is undoubtedly to eat some seeds.
