I'm always fascinated by this. At this point, every couple of days Musk does something comically awful, and there are posts saying "that's it, I used to like him, but this is too much". Like, _how was all the other stuff_ not sufficient evidence that there was a problem?
The was (still is?) one of the major issues with outsourcing development work. External contractors tend to need excruciatingly detailed requirements to produce the expected results, because they typically lack the domain knowledge to guess correctly when faced with ambiguity.

Very often this means getting into long cycles of iteration. If time zones are distant, those cycles can be very long and painful.

Perhaps outsourcing to AI will work much better, as those iterative cycles can be done in near real-time. Maybe there needs to be many different models, each with some industry/domain specific training to increase the odds it’ll make the right guess when it needs to.

Most of HN completely miss the intent of conventional doxxing rules and widely accepted privacy laws in most countries.

- Public figures, like politicians, top businessmen, and so on don't get the same amount of privacy and protection as regular Joe. You can follow them and track them. If you have power and influence, you don't enjoy the same privacy protections as others. That's a really good principle to have.

- Elon Musk himself is know for punching down that violates this principle. His M.O is to point his crazy followers against regular Joes and then playing innocent. "It was not me".

I wanted to recommend this really great blockchain page called Rather Labs (https://www.ratherlabs.com) to you. They offer a wide range of part-time positions in the blockchain industry, and I think it could be a great opportunity for anyone looking to get into the field or gain more experience.

The page has a lot of useful information about the different positions available, as well as information on the requirements and application process. I think it could be a great resource for anyone looking to find a part-time job in the blockchain industry.

In addition, if you have a Web3 project in mind and you want to develop it, Rather Labs can help you with that. I contacted them in the past in order to tell them about my project, and they were willing to help me.

I hope you find this recommendation helpful! Let me know if you have any questions.
Except Musk has selectively applied and prioritized whatever he deemed harmful to himself prior to anything else on top of having hamsters in his head run overdrive on how he still 'supports free speech'.

The core developers literally sell support...

One 'feature' Oracle has, that is very important to some large companies, is that they offer truly full stack support, from the hardware up to the application layer. If I buy support from some PG developers and they diagnose that the problem is actually with my RAID controller firmware or a bug in my inventory management software, will they still take responsibility for fixing it?

Edit: Another aspect is how long will it take for one of those PG core developers to show up on site? Oracle already has a team of support engineers (either first or third party) in most major cities in the world.
Readwise has always been an impressive product - this makes it go so much farther.

Tangent: for me, the Readwise brand as a whole has been damaged by its Twitter bot. There are so many people using it that it spams the replies to just about any Twitter thread. I hate seeing it, but I know these people are getting lots of value - just at the expense of everyone else’s reading experience.
From this classic HN comment it sounds like working on the Oracle codebase is an exercise in clusterfuckery:

> Anyone intelligent enough to think it through knows it's a paradox

I don't, so I assume I'm not that intelligent. Would you please explain to me how is it a paradox?
Perhaps a work-around would be to have a landing page or redirector that when accessed by a bot just talks about how wonderful Twitter is but when a human accesses it you get redirected to a particular Mastodon instance. Is that doable in code? I know how to do this in Nginx and HAProxy ACL's. Do the Twitter crawlers use HTTP/2.0 yet? Google and assorted gaming/chat platform crawlers are still limited to HTTP/1.1.
EU: Putting an end to wasteful packaging, boosting reuse and recycling
I afraid this is optimistic. Hardware support for VP9 is only available from AMD Polaris or Intel KabyLake. I think Apple started supporting VP9 only in 2020, likely excluding holder hardware. Youtube ships here VP9 and my Linux is able to accelerate it luckily on a T14. Not on my X220 ;)

Keep in mind implementing ASICs need a way more time and a way more till broad support has reached customers. Systems with Sandy Bridge or even earlier (like ThinkPad X201) are working fine and being used. Long working reliable hardware is a good thing.

Streaming (select best codec) can adapt quicker than video-chat (common codec). And so called "Smart TVs" will not receive updates at all?
I think that’s an ungenerous interpretation that lends itself to nitpicking because it ignores the immediately preceding context.

> very strong neurological similarity between memories and experiences, we know that they can’t be exactly the same

So showing that there are cases where people do confuse the two doesn’t negate the broader point that they’re not exactly the same thing in the brain, does it?

Just to be clear, we’re talking strictly about flashbacks here, right? As I understand it that’s only one kind of symptom so I want to make sure we’re talking about the same one as others don’t seem relevant to this discussion to me but maybe you’re talking about something else.

Assuming it is flashbacks, do you know whether patients are actually unable to distinguish memory from experience structurally within the brain? Or is it more like entering an uncontrolled dream state (eg lucid dream) into a recurring nightmare? For example people have nightmares regularly of being naked in class or have a sudden exam. People while dreaming can do all sorts of complex activities like walking around. People while dreaming also have a debilitating logic and speech impediment, characteristics of PTSD flashbacks. I don’t know about whether people have actual memories appear in dreams. Still, it’s not immediately clear to me that PTSD patients confuse experience and memory vs PTSD patients have stronger memory-driven dreams on loop and are narcoleptic so enter it suddenly. In that case, It’s possible that even the one sentence you decided to focus on isn’t even wrong unless you also classify sleep with a dream pulling from memories as confusing experience and memory.

> The researchers analyzed data from the National Health and Resilience in Veterans Study, a large, long-term study of veterans of the Iraq and Afghanistan wars. They found that veterans with PTSD were nearly three times as likely as those without PTSD to report narcolepsy symptoms. When the researchers looked at brain scans of the veterans, they found that those with PTSD had significantly lower levels of hypocretin in their brains. These findings suggest that PTSD may be a risk factor for narcolepsy and that the two disorders may share a similar underlying cause.

https://sleepation.com/ptsd-may-be-a-risk-factor-for-narcole...

To me flashbacks always sounded like they probably reused dream machinery rather than actually confusing experience and memory. I believe PTSD patients are able to distinguish “I relived my trauma yesterday” from “I had the trauma happen again yesterday”.

So in summary, a) the one statement being imprecise isn’t relevant to the point being made b) it’s not actually clear to me we know that the statement is even wrong.

EDIT: Whenever someone tags my team, the little Slack icon on the tray bar goes red... and I don't know if that's a direct message (usually important) or someone tagging my team just "fyi". I have to check it always.

Ask HN: Is it me or Git rebase is kind of hard to understand?
I always struggle with the rebase command.

git merge is totally find, while git rebase is something mysterious for me.

Right now, after yesterday's typical work I checked git status and found out that I'm in the process of rebasing. I used git rebase --abort and lost my changes.

Is it lack of discipline to learn this, or it's indeed more complicated than merge?

This is prototypical of the standard Linux experience, but I'd like to remark on just how much less common this sort of thing is. Modern Linux and modern Linux distributions have a much larger "just work" factor and it's getting better every year in my experience. Slowly and asymptotically, but it is improvement.

This was driven home recently by my experience switching to NixOS. NixOS is brilliant in many ways, but boy are there papercuts everywhere. It's all soluble but it is annoying. 25 years ago this sort of fiddling was fun, but now it's just tedious.
> Java is notorious for being ill-suited for user-facing desktop apps - and justifiably so, at least historically.

I'm on a trip in Brazil, and so far I saw 1 commercial system built in Java at a grocery store cashier, and 3 Government systems: Border and Customs office's computer, Postal Office ("Correios") point of sale (a desktop), and the software that must be used for tax return by all citizens (IRPF).

All of them used by millions of people directly or indirectly, all of them implemented in Java Swing.
In the US, settlement is T+2, so if you are buying, the broker doesn't pay the cash/receive the shares until two days later, but they won't let you buy without cash in your account first, so cash for unsettled trades is a bunch of float.

Legacy applications that use mountains of PL/SQL to run business logic.

I concur. Rust does it very sensible and elegantly. I will note that the other thing rust does is let you under specify the lifetimes of a function signature but when compile errors happen they tell you what they ended up inferring and you can always correct it when you need something slightly different. The two features are critical in making Rust code easy to read and write as the types and lifetimes can get tedious and most of you have to specify it literally everywhere.
Pretty much.

"Robinhood makes money in a number of ways, notably through a system known as payment for order flow. That is, Robinhood routes its users' orders through a market maker who actually makes the trades and compensates Robinhood for the business at a rate of a fraction of a cent per share." [0]

The market maker is usually a big player like Citadel. And with this information, they can front-run the market.

The abduction and castration of children by hijra gangs is well documented. There's nothing that really comes close to this in Western culture.
It’s worth pointing out that, in most U.S. localities at least, real estate transactions become public knowledge once they close. You can go look up, on a government website, how much a property sold for even if the transaction was conducted privately. So price discovery is still possible.

I don’t think there is an equivalent public reporting mechanism for private “dark pool” transactions of financial instruments.

Another way to say “without impacting the market” is “denying the market information it needs to set prices accurately.”
IMO the whole system needs to be overhauled. With today's tech there is no reason that trades can't be immediate, the fact that it takes 3 days to "settle" a trade is absolutely beyond ridiculous. That and let's also get rid of any special treatment for the investment industry that retail traders don't have (for example as a retail trader, I can trade in the pre or post market but if I do my trades aren't guaranteed to happen in any timely manner like they are during normal trading hours. This lets big investment firms, who can trade in real-time in pre and post market, do things like respond real-time during earnings calls that retail investors are unable to do).
I'll bite. As public evidence shows, the vast majority of SF residents are politically left-leaning and vote Democrat. The Twitter Files just surfaced what was already publicly available. e.g. Employee donations to the political left eclipse anything else.

So, as a figure who has A) been critical of the recent political left and B) has been "sympathetic" to the recent political right, of course will get booed.

That's where my "badge of honor" statement comes from.

Honestly, I think two things: A) This is a total nothingburger, because it was obviously going to happen, and B) This is way more of a poor impression of SF residents by being crybabies at what is meant to be entertainment, than Elon, who didn't get much of a word other than "Hi Dave" before a fight broke out.

I don't know. It's all pretty sad TBH.

In Quebec, all producers are required to sell to the "cartel"

http://www.davidmckie.com/legal-battle-boils-in-quebec-over-...

Once the cartel has your product, they blend it together in large containers and package this up for sale.

So whatever "brand" is on the container, the product has probably been blended with many producers product.
Yes, they are willing, that wasn't the problem. The problem was that the consuming app on my side is historically metadata driven, and historically tries to avoid having to recompile when the interface changes. We do that by keeping the code generic and by reading the interface from a database. This leads to faster iterations. The problem rises when we have to interface with any other system which is not generic and has its interface defined in H files.

Yeah, I know, it's our problem, not theirs. It's something I cannot fix on my own without a huge effort. I've tried pushing for it for more than a decade, and at some point my wish was sort of abducted by my boss' boss as an excuse to create a DSL [0].

This is a brand new rule, announced after the fact, and applied so far only to exactly one circumstance that happens to be personally related to the CEO. Arguing that this is a fair application of a well-considered policy is just ridiculous, sorry. For that matter, if Musk's wasn't actually in the air at the time of the bannings, it's not even clear that the stated policy was even applied correctly! All the journalists did was post links that allows you to find ElonsJet on Facebook, AFAICT. That's not "real time" info, is it?
