LOL. Well I'm very against 6am meetings. >10am or bust :)

But actually IME it's not uncommon to actually chat about stuff. What'd you do this weekend? Did you see X movie? How did you solve that issue? But that might only work if it's not 6am.
The only one that's stuck with me is https://github.com/microsoft/pyright, mainly because I thought it was strange that Microsoft would publish something such a lackluster README. It's not the worst ever, but it lacks a clear sales pitch and a concise explanation of why you'd use it instead of mypy. If you go in without that added context, it's kind of mystifying why it even exists or why you'd use it compared with the alternatives.
It is a doctor's prescription. You might say that the frequent use has increased her tolerance, but she had no other effects even at the start (other than occasional double vision).
I am not surprised really. If the alternative to not working is to have a minimum wage job where you get treated like shit by customers and management every day.
Probably. Depends. For a simple app should be straighforward.

I set up a machine - a few weeks ago this involved a few direct api calls using curl - maybe `flyctl` can do it all now.

Then I deployed on that machine a version of my app that gracefully shut down if no requests were received for 60s.

Works great. Shuts down after a minute, boots back up in under a second when a request comes in.

See the docs for details
Stackpath is an excellent alternative. I use stackpath (moved from incapsula after they got bought out) though I still use cloudflare for some areas. Stackpath support is much better than cloudflare in that I can always contact someone and get a response quickly even over live chat so for support stack path wins - really both tend to just work. I prefer stackpath waf over cloudflare. Only network issues I found is there were issues accessing from China which newer not issues on cloudflare. Pricing for cloudflare is flat which for the business and pro plans, and I really like flat fees instead of usage based . where stackpath varies each month based on usage.
I have a high school buddy that is a big class action lawyer. When he posts about winning a big case I’m always holding back from commenting asking how much he got paid vs the folks that were actually harmed.

It's very straight forward.
I'm not an expert on GDPR at all so forgive me if these are dumb questions but how? I thought GDPR pertained to a user's personal info? Sending back info about the webpage the script is used on isn't the same. Also who would be in violation, the leachers or the OP? Does GDPR even apply if OP is just a random person on the internet and not a company operating in the EU?
I feel like this is a boring answer but for me, I had to make a habit of it, and then it didn't feel so hard any more. I started doing a master's degree in my free time: when I started I barely had the energy to do anything outside of work, but now I feel like setting aside time for coursework is pretty natural.

For me I find I usually fall into a 2/2/2 pattern for forming habits*: The first two days are super hard, after about two weeks it starts to feel doable, after two months the habit is pretty set and I don't have to worry as much about falling off the bus.

* This entire pattern is probably a placebo but that's fine by me

Of course, your energy is not infinite. If you are trying to work crazy hours and fit in other taxing activities, you are going to fail at some point.
To be clear, you want to decrease the permittivity that adds capacitance where the accumulation of charge serves no purpose (i.e., in the interconnects) and increase permittivity where we want to have a lot of charge (i.e., on the actual transistor gates so we can produce a large enough electric field to switch the transistor), which is why gate dielectrics use high-k materials like HfO2 and interconnect layers use low-k dielectrics like carbon-doped oxides.)
I have a friend with a 1953 vintage Dage Model 60[1] camera, and also a Model 101. We're trying to get them running again, with no schematics, and only vague hints of documentation.

We have a NEW and tested vidicon, and others that we can test in a newer Motorola camera, so that's a plus.

In the past we gotten several HP 5061B cesium beam atomic clocks[2] back from the dead, so we'll get there eventually.

The chips using preliminary/draft specs are annoying. However RISC-V has allocations dedicated in the ISA for vendor specific instructions which is fine. Code that does not use such extensions runs just fine
I mean, we're making pretty good progress with gene editing and understanding how the brain works on a neurological level.

If biology is the problem, we might have an actual chance to solve this :)
> But my experience with my Meta Quest Pro is that it's more for getting a vague idea of your surroundings than just interacting with them.

The point of the article is that this experience, while good, is juxtaposed with Meta's marketing claim that it's a mixed reality device. You're saying the device is good at the thing the author says it was probably built for. Mixed reality implies that you're seamlessly switching between environments, as if there wasn't a distinction.
Of course. Freed from the requirement to turn a profit, they can redirect revenue to executive salaries.
I agree. I meant to say that you can no longer just have "something you know", you also need "something you have".

Wether this is already or not 2FA it's a bit debatable. Apple says yes and I tend to agree. From the server's perspective, however, it can only verify 1 factor and it has to trust the client to implement the 2nd factor securely (whether it's a pin, fingerprint, face id, etc.)
Not just for killing, bur for area denial, never forget.
You certainly have more Vipassana/Buddhist practice than me.

However, I want to stress that Mindfulness, in the general sense, covers all the (sensing) continuum physical/emotional/lower-mental/higher-mental, while body-scanning seems to concentrate on the first level.

It is also not a static experience. (Real) Mindfulness is supposed to be a slowly transformative process, so I'm sure the observations you cited here will mutate (in subtle ways) as you continue the practice, and you grow as a person.

> does anyone knows some science on this?

“scientific” etymologically means “producing knowledge”.

I consider (older) techniques like Vipassana as a form of (inwardly) empirical investigations that are capable of producing reliable (Self) Knowledge because they are (ideally) based on observation without judgment.
I think it better to perfect that inner “observation without judgment” than accept some (outwardly) science (at this early 21st century stage anyway).
>RISC-V is still not quite Raspberry Pi 4-level on the fastest chips

Current chips in cheap SBCs are already equal or above Raspberry Pi 4 level[0]. Particularly so when most Raspberry Pi 4 do not have a sufficient cooling solution and will be quickly throttled under load.

The fastest announced chips are competitive with the top x86-64 chips[1].

I pay around ¢10/kWh (including all my connection fees plus the stupid surcharge from last years Texas debacle).
Almost all ideas can be traced to something else.

Icons were Dave Smith's invention. He came from SRI, so one could easily find someone there who inspired him.

Apple and Microsoft both made significant contributions and Mac/Windows were in no way a "copy of the Alto." In fact, Star itself was not a copy of the Alto; that was the problem it had to solve! The Alto's programs all had different interfaces.

"Direct manipulation with the mouse" was what wowed Jobs, and what he saw was Smalltalk, which had a different interface than any of the stuff I mentioned.

Interestingly, Bill Atkinson was sure he'd seen something cool at the demo that he liked, so he implemented it. It turned out that he hadn't actually seen it.

How else would you do risk management for loans? Without credit bureau where would the loan originator determine the risk of the loan? Would each individual be responsible have to store all payments and receipt of payment and submit that? Or do we just blend the risk with everyone so if you always paid your loans on time, you pay the same rate as someone who has a loan write off and is 3 months behind in loan payments?
I've heard that some of the AR stuff got nerfed because of the ability of IR cameras to see through some fabrics and Facebook not wanting to have those headlines in the newspapers. I just heard it as a rumour though, perhaps an insider with a throwaway account can "shed some light".
Isn't it usually a bad idea to have the database and application server in different data centers? It is / was my understanding that both the database and application server should ideally be on the same rack.
It's more complex than that. AT&T Wireless, launched in 1987 under another name, was invested in by post breakup AT&T in 1992 and merged into AT&T in 1994, and then spun off in 2001. Cingular was mostly Southwestern Bell and a couple more baby bells (SBC) and Bell South. In 2004, Cingular bought AT&T wireless and merged it under the Cingular Brand. In 2005, SBC bought the rest of AT&T. In 2006, SBC bought Bell South and therefore owned the whole Cingular, and rebranded it as AT&T.

In 2007, when the iPhone was released, you would have been forced to deal with "the new AT&T", but when you left, you were probably dealing with "the old AT&T", they both suck, but differently. :)
I got $397.00 from a Facebook biometrics class action settlement in Illinois, out of a $650M settlement. But yes, definitely the exception rather than the rule.

Petulant oligarchs exist because inequity and wealth transference to the top is baked into the US monetary system. Until the monetary system undergoes a radical transformation, the oligarchy will only get worse.
I like the idea of a Chief Liability (or Lamb…) Officer, a person who serves with the understanding that they’ll be the person who serves prison time for the felonious crimes of the corporation

No, if you have a scalable quantum computer (which no one has yet), then doubling the key size just requires doubling the number of logical qubits. That is for asymmetric encryption that uses "hidden subgroup problems", like RSA. We have newer asymmetric algorithms that are resistant to quantum attacks, they are just not well tested yet.
For someone with such low karma you sure are the expert on all things HN. In my humble opinion, only a mindless NPC would think my comparing the erroneous platitudes and baseless claims of the above to an LLM was not appropriate to the spirit of HN. Those guidelines, btw, absolute shit, I'm sorry to say. They degrade the quality of conversation around here by devaluing passionate debate. They explicitly eschew many rhetorical tools of persuasive speech that require art to use effectively, such as sarcasm and irony, in favor of a watered down "niceness" that has no defences against outrageous cultural land grabs. They elevate and give cover to humorless scolds. And, they're written as if the people on here were in 3rd grade. So don't wave that banner at me like it's some kind of win for you. It's not. It's just more hall monitoring. Go tell the teacher or just vote me down and save the sermon for someone who thinks it's bad to say something sarcastic and true.
Spot on. RDS is a solution for people who look in the mirror and say "I'd rather be working on other things than running a database."

(Disclaimer: I'm a TAM for AWS.)
Linux support is quite solid already, and Debian (largest Linux distribution) builds over 95% of packages for this architecture. The only major runtime missing is dotnet.

This is about Android, which is very different from your average Linux system.
Yeah, this. AWS enables you to do anything you can think of, at any scale and complexity, given enough time spent reading their documentation and crafting terraform configurations.

Fly makes it really easy to do the 80% of things that most small/medium operations need to just get done now.
I understand your skepticism, I myself find it very hard to believe I couldn't find a place to stay in Paris.

Btw, if you're thinking of "other factors" like something dodgy about my personality, there aren't any. If there was something about me so dodgy that nobody wanted to rent to me, it would affect my ability to be employed, first. And yet I got an offer from the first startup to which I applied in Paris, so it can't be that.

Perhaps the recent immigrants you spoke with were comfortable with less ... formal? ways of renting? For example, searching for "why so hard to rent in Paris foreigner" on duckduckgo, I find this account of similar difficulties as mine:

https://howtobecomeparisian.com/2020/04/13/the-struggle-of-f...

<< I arrived in Paris thinking it would be easy to find a place to live, and the end result ended up being years of dodgy landlords, questionable agencies, and a string of short-term leases which made me feel like I always had to be ready to pack up at a moment’s notice. >>

I'm guessing there are many people living in similar precarious accommodation. I didn't want that, so I guess I played on hard mode to begin with. But the point is that the hard mode is hard, and I'm not playing some game, I'm just trying to rent a place to stay and work in a European capital. It shouldn't be hard.
I don't know wha your background is, but I would recommend to practice a lot and keep doing it.

If you were a software developer before (not required), then you are used of the do it mentality, the same applies for Cloud stuff.

By practicing a lot, you'll become more and more confident to do it and then you'll be happy that company will hire you because of your skills (better) than only because of any certification.

I have seen a few certified people being hired and fired afterward, let's do more effort for that certification (if you plan to get it) to only confirm your skills rather than defining it.

I myself practicing a lot, feel free to find out what I'm doing daily at: https://blog.numericaideas.com

While hoping this answer will help you somehow.

Let me know in you want more precision.
Cheers!
Standups first thing in the morning are a great way to get the day going with some hot coffee. Each status should be 5-30 seconds. Keeps people honest. The shittier employees always go on and on about what they're doing and start asking questions about their personal tasks and if the bossman/bosswoman allows it, the meeting can take up valuable time. I always have a sheet in front of me where I start drawing and the more the drawing progresses, the more the project is digressing.
I'd like to ask the questioner and to anybody who would like to comment:

As docker compose is only for single node deployments, how is your workflow from dev to production? If your containers are deployed in something like Kubernetes in production, isn't inconvenient to use docker compose for development?
Strikes fear in my heart.

Just a little over a year ago, July 2021, I left FAANG to start my own software consulting company and there were periods of feast or famine (especially during early days...I mean its still early days, I guess) with the income exploding then dropping to nil. In order to preserve my marriage, I sometimes (okay, often) wonder whether I should return back to the old 9-5. Life trade offs.
It doesn't matter if you're willing to fight and die for some lines on paper, what matters is people are willing to come kill you for possession of those lines.
I unplug the power when things are not used. So they will not be connected. That's why I use different physical boxes.
We've currently got minor criminals in maximum security because there's a lack of low-level capacity. Simply building enough minimum security cells for the minor criminals already in the system would be more appropriate treatment, would aid rehabiliation, and would reduce overcrowding of actually dangerous prisoners. Further, the cost of incarceration scales with the security required, this would save money.

In addition, there'd now be a reasonable punishment for small crimes and we could start punishing people who now fall through the cracks before they become a problem.

> I think the burden of proof is on you to show that building more prisons will somehow help.

You're not using them correctly. Stop breaking the system by putting mental patients and minor criminals in prisons. Stop overcrowding, underfunding, letting sadists be guards, etc, etc, and then see if they work.

Besides, I'm not saying more, I'm saying new and appropriate ones. You can repurpose the old ones once prisoners are transferred.

This is why people are more against minimum-security prisons than maximum; minimum security prisons are an easy and obvious win and it hurts the "all prisons bad" narrative by showing the options aren't just gulags or nothing.
You’d just find the hardware isn’t capable of what you want it to do, because it wasn’t designed to do that, it was designed to be a phone.

Or in other words, it’s all fun and games until the flash dies because you used up the lifetime writes.
Show HN: I built W3Design – a design pattern library of Web3 products
Hey all, I'm a product designer and I built this cause' when I was designing liquidity pool and staking features for this DAO, I didn't know how the user flow worked and how the UI looked for similar pages, so I was constantly switching back and forth Balancer, Uniswap, and OlympusDAO as references.

I thought that I might not be the only one with this problem, so I built this library of userflow screenshots, and annotated them, to share with the web3 community of builders, designers, and developers.

Would love feedback if you're a builder in web3, let's connect too!

(Also I'm aware that there are some that'll claim web3 is a scam, but I believe in it, to each their own.)
By the way, Jerry Morrison and I wrote a paper revisiting all this from the point of view of, "OK, we know all that history. So what should they have done?" You might find it entertaining:

Maybe you can bring it up in a way that appears guileless rather than accusatory? “Nice job dude! I bet you really helped out the victims — how much did you get them?”
How good is the resolution? Can you already use the device as a monitor-replacement? (I.e., coding behind a virtual monitor on an exotic location, while you're just at home behind the desk)
Video doesn’t play - is HN capable of breaking Twitter now?
It's a weird point to spend so much ink on though. The author explicitly raises the possiblity that the marketing fluff could just be marketing fluff, but then seem to go on as if this can't be the explanation.

Seems obvious to me that the "Mixed reality" stuff is just marketing fluff, if you pay any attention to the technical evolution of this product line when interpreting these complaints.
Have you checked out descript overdub? It actually uses your own voice (cloned) for ai, and is pretty amazing. It's used by a lot of youtubers: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sr-k1LWYsIg
Viruses - like mosquitos.. can anyone pontificate the downside to wiping viruses out
That makes some sense, but from my point of view my housing situation is not ideal, either: the apartment I'm renting is half the size and twice the money of what I was renting before, although I didn't live at a capital city then.
It's been pointed out that Grover's algorithm parallelizes very badly. So not AES-64. It probably will turn out that AES-128 bit is perfectly fine as it has a tremendous amount of margin to start with
Interesting, mine was also exactly $5.21.
I would just add some console.log message explaining the issue you have with hotlinking the script. This will not disrupt users, but anyone who fires up their devtools will see that the site is getting shamed. And if their devs care just a little bit, I think they will find it embarrassing enough to host the script themselves.

Correct me if I simply have missed it, but is there an official NPM package available? I have seen https://www.npmjs.com/package/sorttable and perhaps some of the sites would drop the script tag if "npm install --save-dev sorttable.js" is in the instructions and they have a build step for their JS anyway. Just thinking out loud.
Not for Amazon videos at least
> How else would you do risk management for loans? Without credit bureau where would the loan originator determine the risk of the loan? Would each individual be responsible have to store all payments and receipt of payment and submit that?

You act like this is ridiculous but the fact of the matter is that I would prefer that, because ultimately the difference agency in this situation I provide the lender my information that I control, in any other scenario my agency has been taken away by an outside group, whom I may or may not trust.

Hell imagine how different everything would be if instead of the Credit Unions working for the lenders I instead paid for a service myself that performed this service for me. The difference being one is done to me the other is done by me.
VisonFive 2 is a decent amount faster than a RPi4.

And there was a floodgate opened for high perf core announcements at the recent RISC-V summit. https://www.semianalysis.com/p/ventana-risc-v-cpus-beating-n... Most of those are probably bullshiting some major aspect of their cores' perf but there's designs like from from Jim Keller's Tenstorrent too. Jim Keller is sort of known for not bullshitting.
I think it's personal choice and in many cases a rational one. Men who don't want to start families and have no particular ambition really have no reason to work.
I am in FAANG as well. Usually I just want to do something fun. Something that tickle my fancy like:

- How L2-L3 software works (things that make Tailscale/Zerotier work; TUN/TAP interface, etc.)

- How distributed database works in complete details.

- Learning Korean & Mandarin.

- And definitely not Leetcoding because it's boring AF.

After I have a kid, a lot of my spare energy pool is drained already so I cannot just waste it on boring/tedious stuff.
One of the things that I heard a lot and confirm, is that you need to do a side project that has nothing to do with the stuff that you are doing at work, especially it needs to motivate you as well.

Courage to you.

They already actually have that it is called the CISO or Chief Intentional Sacrificial Officer, sometime misinterpreted as Chief Information Security Officer.
I find this really annoying. There's also no concept of a package like Helm Charts which means you can distribute all your images on Docker Hub but then when it comes to compose files and configurations with templating your up @$%^ creek.

I was hoping something like https://dagger.io/ might solve this but they currently don't support compose files, or maybe https://www.acorn.io/ ?

It does feel like there is a legitimate space for a multi-container service application standard that isn't just kubernetes, unless perhaps things like k3d and docker desktop end up so good at running tiny k8s that docker compose dies.
