Not completely a red flag... I've only been through layoffs twice but both times the cuts the company made were pretty logical in terms of investing more in the existing profitable parts of the company and cutting things that were bets but would have take awhile to even prove if they were the right bets to make.

The one thing I would be concerned about is the ~2 months after layoffs are pretty rough morale wise.

- People lost their friends and are upset about it

- Systems start breaking and the knowledge of them was lost

- Team restructuring means learning how to work with new people

- Adjusting expectations for the new velocity of the remaining engineers takes time

I personally would not join a company that recently did layoffs because socially its going to be awkward for awhile.

"Out of public schools grows the greatness of a nation." - Mark Twain
If you're worried about rent seeking wait till you find out how a traditional business works. The owner of the company takes all the profit, and then pays out a small portion of that profit to the workers doing the work in form of wages.

On the other hand, in a coop the profit is shared fairly amongst the people actually doing the work. It's frankly incredibly that somebody thinks this is a worse model of compensation.
Simply put fat worsens insulin resistance. The mechanism is complex, basically fat causes inflammation that causes cells to not respond appropriately to insulin. This leads to elevated blood glucose and all the effects of diabetes. Remove the fat, decrease inflammation, improve insulin resistance.

Freud uses narcissism for two different things. The term gets fleshed out by later psychoanalysts, particularly Heinz Kohut and Otto Kernberg who seem to be talking about completely different populations of patients. Kohut in particular develops the concept that is described as "healthy narcissism" in Wikipedia and very much sees pathological narcissism as "narcissistic disturbance".

If you had to blame somebody for the othering it starts with Kernberg, Lasch makes his contribution, probably the worst of them all is Sam Vaknin who claims to be a narcissist and obviously gets narcissistic supply by doing massive SEO spam on the subject to warn the world about the dangers of narcissism. (He'd probably agree he's the worst and that's the disease talking) There is a particular horror in that people are waking up to NPD being the "master personality disorder" in our culture in that people who are NPD or NPD-adjacent frequently rise to the top in business and political organizations.

My first take is to reject "spectrum" in terms of autism spectrum because in the case of autism most people are not autistic at all. I think there are people with other disorders, particularly "schizoid spectrum" or "schizotypal spectrum" that want to imagine they are on the autism spectrum because there is so much awareness of autism.

I would say that "narcissism" is a part of normal psychological organization and that (1) has something to do with why some people with NPD can dangerously hook people, and (2) complicates people who have other disorders. I knew a woman who I think had schizoaffective disorder (never got a real diagnosis or treatment) that that caused her to be disabled and on top of that had intense feelings of worthlessness because she was disabled (narcissism spectrum). It was the latter that I think led to her suicide.
Of course you can use an ORM with Golang, and will have reduced throughput. However, I wonder how much you can profile for both languages and fix the bottlenecks by rewriting things. It can also depend on the machine and how the VM allocates the threads and memory allocation (for example multi chiplet, multi rambank support).

I don’t think the specialization of engineers is accidental.

I’ve worked at a number of companies and engineers are ALWAYS the limiting factor. Simply put, there’s a chronic shortage of people who can build valuable stuff.

I believe companies have sought to offload this bottleneck. Have engineers just build, and hire people to do everything else.
Good question, I don't know. The technician on site didn't have one. I guessing the camera would be faster, but the result image about the same. The nice thing about the paper is you easily can check multiple spots at once, so it's faster to divide down to the problem area.
And the slow AF for the the X100 and X100S wasn’t too much of a problem because the vast majority of the buyers for those two were already film rangefinder enthusiasts who knew how to manual focus/zone focus.

I find it a little interesting that the X100V is blowing up the way it is given that the X100 line is known for its learning curve, but if it means more people learning how to manual focus/zone focus/manual exposure, I’m all for it.
Ask HN: How do you read articles and newsletters?
Over the last couple years, the level of long-read content has improved dramatically with the rise of independent media and high-quality tech journalism.
I subscribe to 40-ish different newsletters and received around ten articles per day. Unfortunately, very few of them I manage to read eventually.
Probably that's ok if the news hasn't caught the eye, but at the same time, I feel there is a way to improve the experience:

Unlike traditional online news sources, email newsletters come directly to you—right into your inbox and straight from a writer or publication you know and trust.
At the same time, email can be a crowded and complicated place. Newsletters get mixed in with important messages, urgent reminders, and even annoying promotions.
I'm thinking of interacting not in a streaming manner but in a slow-paced environment. In addition, the articles in my inbox create personal content storage for me, which I can leverage in future research. Unfortunately, most newsletters are not indexable, so the only way to search is to rely on your email-client built-in search engine.

How are you dealing with that? Sounds like some Gmail management can handle that, but maybe there are some prominent startups in that field?

Not bothering to troubleshoot customer problems seems to be a business strategy these days. One of my jobs is for a security firm that internally takes the attitude that if a small biz with a low ARR comes in with a critical problem, they are just to be strung along until they quit.

...and its because they give all the shitwork to 'poor countries'. (Work which, of course, we used to do here in this rich country).

It's that blanket assertion that everything is just this one way. That's easy to say. Nothing was offered to support it. The reader is assumed to agree because it's obvious.

> Also in my employment agreement there is a rule stating that I need my current employer approval before I get a side gig.

I do not think this is lawful. In our agreements we only prohibit doing a work for our competitors or directly competitive work. If you like your employer then do not come up with this with them, but stay informed of your rights.
That seems like an expense, not a profit center.

Incorrect. It helps people who are trying to relate to those with NPD.
You've been downvoted but, in simplicity, that is the message and what employees want now. Employers/managers, listen up.

It's worth emphasising beause many bosses still haven't got this message.

I'm currently quiet-quitting, and will actually-quit shortly, because of this attitude.

It's not about being work-shy. It's about busting your arse for a company (and self/respect) and then when the realisation dawns on everyone that flexibility is not only possible but has helped productivity (n=1 our productivity and balance sheet improved during covid), and then to have the door shut on that realisation ... you can expect employees to switch off.

Our entire team feels this way. We'll all be gone soon.

It is far more fun than snorkeling and (in my opinion) anything less than 10/12 meters is very safe, if something goes wrong you just slowly kick up and don't need a safety stop. A couple of caveats: you should get certified with an instructor who takes the time to teach you safety techniques (like how to recover if your mask gets pulled off); the certification will involve at least one deep dive. I recommend proceeding directly to 'advanced' certification (the next level after open water diver) right away, because the basic open water course is targeted at minting as many new scuba divers as possible, and is not enough to adequately practice what you learned.

As far as shallow water diving goes, the best places are coral reefs (like Hawaii), you can spend all day in 30 feet of water and never get bored. The great advantage over snorkeling is that you can get very close to things (like tiny fish that look like designer handbags defending their little patch of coral) and see things in 3D, sea turtles slowly drifting past you, small sharks warming themselves on sunlit patches of sand like cats.

For maximum safety, avoid diving sites that have currents or boat traffic, and shore dives with strong surf, those are probably the biggest risks to a beginner in shallow water. It's also a good idea if diving with your family for the most proficient one or two of you to eventually take a rescue diver course, which will teach you how to help a panicked or incapacitated diver. Good luck and have fun—good safety habits go a long way in this activity, and you are in for years of enjoyment diving together.
Yes indeed - the open source toolchain (yosys, nextpnr and GHDL for VHDL support) isn't 100% "there" yet, but it is good enough to use for real projects as long as you keep the limitations in mind. It supports several different FPGA families now, with Lattice ICE40 (project icestorm) and Lattice ECP5 (project trellis) being pretty mature, and (somewhat more experimentally) project XRay for Xilinx series 7 and project Mistral for Cyclone V - and others too.

My own CPU (EightThirtyTwo) and SoC project (SDRAM, video, sound, interrupts, uart) can be built for ECP5 using Yosys and friends, as well as for a number Altera/Intel FPGAs using the proprietary Quartus.

I don't think that would work because attractive nuisance is meant to be about risks to children, who are generally presumed to be unable to waive liability. Originally, it was only applied to very young children, but has been expanded. In one case, 17 year old boys were allowed to use it: https://www.law.com/almID/900005548604/

Very young unsupervised children probably aren't an issue for a property in a remote area, but 17 year olds on ATVs could easily access such a property and could certainly find ways to injure themselves with the combination of ATVs and terrain.

I think statutory limits on liability for attractive nuisance would probably be the best answer. It should not be usable over a certain age - ten seems about right to me. That's old enough to know things like drowning is possible, unfamiliar machinery is dangerous, and large animals can hurt you.
In what way?

I use ARM containers locally to dev and test locally, check in the code and the build server creates an x86 image for deployment to the server.

Worst case you have to build the ARM container yourself locally and tag it with the "remote" name and docker will just use it instead of pulling the remote version.
This looks great. Is it available to try?

Might be a stretch, but if you cracked long form summarization without factual hallucination Elon/Twitter might be interested in that, as it is very much in line with what they’re trying to do, I believe.

This is very common with the immigrants where I live. So many friends struggled with that in their first 3 years or so. They all end up making friends over time, and then the process becomes easier as they meet friends of friends.

There is not a specific method to it. You just hack at it until you find yourself surrounded by friends.

I made friends by connecting with people who worked on similar things. We invited each other for a drink and ended up hanging out. I've also met a lot of friends through other friends. Our groups just merged over time. It helps to be the one organising things and inviting others. I don't remember making many friends in meetups, but perhaps that's just me.
Just checked it: works fine for me.
Nah all that's happening is he's using connection slots.

The attacking node will have a very low score and get disconnected when other legitimate connections are made.

Thanks for sharing some examples! Funnily I'm trying to develop some of the traits and encourage my more humble friends to do the same.

For example, I find that not believing I deserve anything actually led to people treating me badly in the past. And developing a healthy dose of "I deserve this" mentality has improved my day-to-day interactions and even relationships.

Another thing I learnt much later in life was that wanting success is the first step of... success, and there is nothing wrong with grand dreams.

Maybe I need a narcissist friend and exchange notes.

> After a while, it feels less like "iterative" product development and more like "highest bidder gets the feature" development.

It does work that way. I work for a unicorn security firm that internally has the rule that a bug impacting a business that pays less than 10K a year cannot be fixed. They are to be strung along until they quit on us.

Whether we are actually working on the issue we claim to be working on entirely depends on your ARR. If you are a customer with less than 10K ARR, your bug is not getting any attention from engineering, just endless promises from support.
Yes, it's exactly as you say.

I did search for benchmark comparisons and bumped into one that had 2 orders of magnitude difference.

But naturally, isolated benchmarks can't encapsulate the whole picture because there's a world of difference between testing how fast a loop runs and performance in production.
This how you grow GDP:

- They sell you junk food for billions.

- If you get chronic disease -> they will forever sell you drugs for billions more.

- If you stop eating that junk, they will still sell you overpriced pseudo-healthy food (all the billion dollar fads)

- And now, even if you just get (a little) obese from all that food -> they got the magic pill ! they will sell you more drugs for $50bn.

Yay GDP is growing! and we should thank them for solving our health problems too!
Apparently simulated.

You can see in the UART code for example:

https://github.com/nyuichi/GAIA3/blob/master/hardware/Rx.vhd

file input_file : ft open READ_MODE is input_filename;

read(input_file, c);

data <= std_logic_vector(to_unsigned(character'pos(c), 8));

And so on and so forth, to pump a file on the simulation PC into a VHDL logic array one byte at a time as a simulation of a UART.

Would be pretty funny if the above is the "wrong" repo for the story, but it is at least "an implementation" of the GAIA architecture, if not "the implementation" from the story.
Different heads, same tin foil.
Facebook could probably just ask to send whatever you got about the user and they'll deal with the identification. User agent + IP is probably more than enough. Worst case they just build a JS that can be included and give the full fingerprint.
I've been pondering about the idea of a collaborative browsing lately like social browsing, figjam for websites, maybe like replit but for browsing there's a couple of examples but the best one so far is Tris.com, i used it for a while but UX is not the greatest so i stopped using it. Would be cool to have that.

50k sockets looping requests make the p2p port entirely inaccessible at times. with more attacking machines it is reasonable to suspect that the target node(s) could be held down in perpetuity.

edit: re: child comment / syn flood; sure. bitcoind needs ip associated throttling baked in. there is no rationale behind a single machine attempting 1k handshakes a second. the attack shouldn't work at all.
Reads like:
- I got burned by fire.
- Now I do not use fire at my house, I don't need it.

I think you may be missing on some important things be staying alone. Humans are social beings, social capital is also a thing. Being alone is good when you are young and healthy, when you get older and have a health issue (hopefully not) it may be a devastating experience when no one visits you in the hospital.

I am a single now, but I don't want it to stay this way forever. It would be kind of sad for me to spend my older days alone. Also I want to have a child, after all it may be my best contribution to the world (my code would probably be all gone in next 15 years).

I can recommend you this book as a starting point: https://www.amazon.com/What-Happened-You-Understanding-Resil... It helped me understand some of my issues.

That course was absolute trash from my perspective - nothing clicked. I am not sure why it's so highly praised, despite covering fundamentals. Pacing and everything was off, and this is from someone with a ton of coding experience and stats background.
These stories resonate a lot in the public as being an evil consequence of human activity, and no one can counter that.
But it comes with horror stories and myths of "old and ancient viruses and bacteria", the next pandemics etc.

I wonder how much primal fear and how much reason is the recipe for these allegations.

Out of principle, I'd rather let these viruses in the permafrost and never have to deal with them but since we're here... What does science say about the risk? Is it " unknown with a wide spectrum of scenario" or something else?
Agreed. Also "magic quotes" and "register_globals". Nuff' said.
I don't think I've ever seen that word in text, and would not realize that was the definition because 'taboos' is acceptable.
