It was obviously a click-bait as half-way through the article it was clearly written to promote Val, a language practically no one has heard of as compared to Carbon and CPP2. The click-bait worked. Val looks like a real contender, but now I'm forced to ignore it because of the dishonest means by which I was introduced to it :)

yes, they are still living in a bubble: do not care at all for what they call "peasants".

From the other side I think non-rich (and the many just poor or poorer) do not get angry enough since they do realize it's hard for many others (Ukranian and Russian e.g.): I guess we still have to wait awhile until somebody wakes up and reckon "the king is naked".

> The first condominium in the continental US was built in 1960, the entire scheme is only 63 years old.

This is correct in the sense that it is technically correct (for residential dwellings; commercial condominiums have existed for almost a hundred years prior).

However, residential cooperatives (co-ops) have existed in the United States since the mid-1800s. These are functionally the same as a condominium with a slightly different legal structure. But the end result is identical: multiple owners jointly managing a building in which they all own a stake.

Hi dang,

Would you be kind enough to consider updating the format for 2023?

Instead of SEEK1NG W0RK and SEEK1NG FREELANC3R, how about something more explicit like I AM A FREELANC3R and SEEK1NG FREELANC3R respectively?

That way only commenters doing the hiring get to use the word SEEK1NG at the start of their post. It also eliminates the confusion for everyone else.

PS: I used leetcode to avoid polluting the results for others.

Hello HN! I am looking for a full stack developer or preferably a backend developer position (full-time).

I have been programming since I was a kid. I consider my strong sides to be breadth of knowledge, strong google-fu, and ability to design and develop software from scratch.
I value software development as a craft, but can also ship quickly when needed.

Looking forward to new opportunities!

> A language "focused on safety and correctness" where you need to argue because error handling is neglected instead of being put front, and not even the most trivial resource management is thought out (even big sounding terms like "linear types" and "capabilities" were thrown on the table).

The OP is complaining about the introductory code samples and how they don't demonstrate the error handling idioms of the language, not any problems with how errors are handled in this language.
There's a difference between betting China doesn't go exploring, and betting China isn't successful at exploring.

There is no need to specifically pursue this policy: it works out this way economically anyway. As it getting harder and less convenient to have children, populations growth slows down. If there will be time of prosperity ahead, it will pick up.
This is a Who is Hiring thread, not a Who Wants to be Hired thread, which is different.
> I find the idea of an an aribritrary population limit kinda dark. Why stop at 700 million?

I’m not advocating for that number as a limit. I’m proposing we consider that a smaller population in general may be a good thing over the long run. A factor of ten was simply an easy value to reach for to jumpstart a discussion.
Not just test runs - infrastructure and ideally resource extraction. The faster we don't have to launch every gram from earth the quicker the really interesting space efforts can get going!
Whatever else is going on in your life, try to get some daily exercise (even if it’s just walking). It won’t solve your problems but it will make them a tiny bit less heavy
Ya we got charged a mandatory 20-30$ a day fee at a hotel recently for their “arcade”, which was 2 pinball machines.., and “bar“, which was a mini fridge in the lobby… (1 “free” drink a day).
HTTP/1.1 is never going away. Cloud vendors will need to support it approximately forever because so many applications are not HTTP/2 compliant, and technically not even HTTP/1.1 compliant (because of things like header casing) in a way that precludes “down casting” after ingress without a lot of hacky workarounds.
You're right, but I don't think memorability and brandability are universal priorities that F/LOSS projects must also be measured from. Sure they can go for that (and many do), but it's unfair to hold them to that very specific standard.

I'm reminded of Debian Linux and its origins (the combination of names of the OS author and his partner). Ended up being pretty memorable, and brand-wise it works. And yet the motivations behind Debian's naming were unusually human for a software world full of empty buzznames.
Privacy violations regarding TikTok? I don't think it's a violation of privacy if one uses the service and therefore agrees to their privacy policy, which clearly states they collect a lot of data.

Stealth Climate Tech Co | Founding Software Engineer | US Remote | Full-time

Residential heating and cooling accounts for a whopping 10% of all ghg emissions in the United States [1]. I’m building a company to reduce that number by 20-50%.

The beta product is a SaaS tool for a vertical that desperately needs one. Quickly, we will grow into a d2c marketplace to 'grow the pie' for decarbonization. Currently, two pilot partners are on the platform with a small number of daily transactions. We’ll come out of “stealth” as soon as I build us a public-facing website :)

The ideal candidate is a mid- or senior-level coder with strong intrinsic motivation to fight climate change. You will have an enormous amount of ownership in this role, and therefore you should care deeply about the product you’re building. Likewise, we’re going to create a culture together. I’m looking for someone who finds that exciting, and who also recognizes that it takes thoughtful effort.

I’m a sole founder, and I’ve secured a pre-seed. I have experience[2] co-founding a climate tech company, and I was the CTO & 1st hire at Snapdocs (yc w14, currently #61 on yc’s top private companies).

Presently, the stack is vanilla Ruby on Rails. I’m a strong proponent of using proven technology in order to iterate quickly - let’s save our “three innovation tokens” for when we really need them. I plan to build a distributed-first company (I love writing things down, we should all write things down). However, if you happen to be based in Chicago, and if the idea appeals to you, I’d be happy to rent a co-working space.

If you’re interested, please fill out this google form: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfg_O6Z9xQbnLPASTY3...

Because an Airbnb listing is cleaned every time a new guest checks in, it doesn't matter whether you stay for one night only or 10 nights. It's a fixed cost to the host.
> Explorer (which finally has tabs!)

This is great, but I do wish people would stop adding tabs to applications and start adding them to window managers instead...
Yes, but not really for urgent care. All Accident & Emergency (ER) departments are NHS-run, so everyone can expect poor state provision to bite them when they're most in need.

For education, on the other hand, rich people and MPs can indeed fully opt out. And private schools still have charitable status.

In my experience, attempts to debloat or fix Windows results in a broken system sooner or later, after a sufficient amount of updates have elapsed.

Nowadays I treat Windows as I would a force of nature -- There's no negotiating or changing it, I just let it roll in and do whatever it's going to do.
Remember, this is entirely the fault of privatization and has nothing to do with socialized medicine!
Although the problem will be a lot less severe than with remote servers, this is still sub-optimal:

- the data passed from one query to the next still needs to move from the database process to the service process and back

- the queries will always be executed in the order they are in the code, denying the optimizer the opportunity to execute the full query in the best order
I hate the fact that hosts are allowed to cancel at the last minute, completely spoiling your holiday. You can't leave a review to warn other users.

It's open to abuse. We've been screwed over by hosts who cancel at the last minute (eg they couldn't find anywhere else to stay). There's literally nothing you can do.
> You can do the scraping in a jurisdiction where it is legal.

No such thing with GDPR.

Why do you think so many US websites take the lazy-ass approach and block EU visitors to their websites ?

Simple, its because either you comply with GDPR or you don't process the information of citizens of GDPR covered countries. End of story.
It forced hotels to have more competitive prices.

Honestly, there was not much else it could do in the long term.

Thank you so much for this. I never even thought to look for a way to change it back, I thought I was stuck with this annoyance forever.
I have been looking for a while too. It seems to be a product that a handful of companies have tried, but no one has really succeeded yet.

I think people working in Health Service have had just enough: you can fool them for some time, but you cannot fool them all the time: now that is not covid emergency anymore, they are just taking more care for themselves
I'm glad you raised this -- as a person who tends to isolate when things get hard, this pretend conversation reads as fairly manipulative (the agreement and such)

That's likely not even the intention... but, something well meaning can go wildly wrong - particularly when someone is stressed

Confusing care for supervision in a way, interesting internalized response I'm chewing on
It’s true that it’s possible to reach a wider audience than was every possible, but now a handful of musicians take up all of the listening time. My parents are both blue collar musicians and use to make good money. before recorded music was as popular as it is now, being a musician was a viable career path because anytime anyone wanted music at the wedding or the holiday party, or any party really, there needed to be a band. Now it’s more common to hire a DJ or just make a Spotify playlist and hear recordings of the tiny minority of top musicians.
Alternatively, you could use a freeware from a reputable German company - O&O AppBuster - to uninstall (or reinstall previously removed apps) in a more visual, user-friendly interface. Don't forget to explore the View menu, where you can select Normal Apps, Hidden Apps, Store Apps, System Apps, Framework Apps.

https://www.oo-software.com/en/ooappbuster

EDIT: While you're there, check their other freeware - O&O Shut Up10++ (i.e. also works for Windows 11) I've been using it for years, with zero problems (other than Windows resetting some policies after a major upgrade).
IMO I think the reason why they didn't release the M1 Pro mini is because they didn't want to cannibalize their mac studio release. The M1 mini chassis has a ton of empty space, and the m1 pro is easily cooled by that space and is already cooled fine by the tiny macbook pro coolers, which also means an M1 Max mini would've worked fine also.

IMO the M1 Max studio body is unnecessary too, it's only really needed for the M1 Ultra, which would lead to barely anyone buying the mac studio form factor.
Avoiding doing something because you don't want to get sued and subjected to a lengthy court battle is completely rational and it doesn't mean that doing that thing is illegal.

For example, for decades many TV shows came up with their own lyrics for Happy Birthday song, even though it was well known that the song wasn't copyrighted, because nobody wanted to get sued and fight that battle. Easier to just change a few words in the script.
It might also be a good idea to distill transient notes down into evergreen notes to refine and review knowledge:
https://notes.andymatuschak.org/Evergreen_notes

This is a great way to refine your ideas before you write and makes it easier to develop the outline as an assembly of different notes that you already have.

An Executable Strategy for Writing:
https://notes.andymatuschak.org/z3PBVkZ2SvsAgFXkjHsycBeyS6Cw...

The main insights for me were:
- Using notes as a way to organize one's writing (by assembling ideas together into an outline, then filling out the details) to avoid writer's block.
- Creating "logs" around concepts that extract useful ideas from ephemeral observations and distill concrete insights over time.
- Using an "inbox" of new ideas as a way to focus attention and perform spaced repetition of concepts.
- Organizing notes via tags, backlinks, and associations/outlines rather than as a hierarchy.
- Incrementally iterating on atomic concept notes to form larger chunks in memory which allows thinking about more complex ideas and recognizing patterns.
Th trend line has been toward significantly less mobility relative to past decades--though you'd probably want to correct the numbers for demographics given that 20 somethings move the most (as one would expect).
You should have enjoyed the stay and study "The Amazing Social Life" of a roaches colony... And design a model of a colony. I mean it has been made for ants, right ? Here a link : https://mospace.umsystem.edu/xmlui/handle/10355/2032?show=fu....

Seriously, one day I left a buddy of mine leave 3 box of stuffs in my appartment because he was moving in another place... 3 months later I saw the very first roach on the open... They were everywhere, hidding in every corners in small groups, even in a f*cking hole punch...

Long story short, I finally get rid of them by buying on the web a kind of pasta in a big seringe with some kind of poison in it which acted at molecular level (or something) and prevented the roaches cells to absorb energy from blood stream. In short, they were dying of starvation even if they were eating. The poison passed also in their shit (because roaches eat their shit to be more discreet), so even their shit became poisonous.

That being said, they would likely not survive a nuclear apocalypse, contrary to the popular belief : https://pursuit.unimelb.edu.au/articles/would-cockroaches-re...
This is flat out incorrect. Depopulation events (like plague) in over-populated areas historically led to higher standard of living for the remaining.

VRBO and subletting agreements existed long before AirBnB.
But this is exactly why we have C++ in the first place, you could port your C code to cfront without doing any effort.
Certainly. Yet poor and wealthy people often forget we are mostly given equal amounts of lifetime (in first world). The fact seems to frustrate those that want disequality (believe money is everything), and it seems to be wilfully ignored by those that say they wish for equality (we mostly have equality in many important things: the politics of arguments relating to other equalities is often relatively bizarre).

> but wealth buys you a factor of two in lifespan at best.

We tend to refer indirectly to average lifespan, without context, which is strongly influenced by baby deaths (also childhood and teenage deaths). In another comment about elites: “Life expectancy for rich people is up”. That statement strikes me as being meaningless without further details (especially given the context that the USA is rich yet lifespans are going down!). What is an elite baby? It turns out approximately all of us are terrible at maths, probability, and clarity of communication.

Indeed. It's easy enough to funnel the money back to somebody you know, paying the 3% commission to Airbnb. There are probably tax ramifications too but as a business cost for a glowing review with no effort, worth it.

I've got a NeXT turbo slab and I've used this software. It's a pretty convincing clone.

Fundamental protocols have changed so much since the next days that it's hard to get it online. My 1Gb switch doesn't mind its 10Mb/s connection but even things like NFS, DNS or DHCP have moved away from what the NeXT knows how to do. There's a very old version of ssh available but modern ssh refuses to talk to it so you're back to telnet which is fine - the encryption overhead is unreasonable on a 68k.

I run a special proxy machine that accommodates it and it has compatible versions of these on it.

The newest browser you can use is onniweb and part of the proxy is dehttps'ing things ... It's quite a bit of work.

Not even TIFF formats are the same. Imagemagick does not support the format the NeXT exports.

The easiest way of getting graphics off is actually to "print it" as a PostScript file and then ftp it over or cp it using an older NFS.

The entire interface is PostScript based which is why it has high compatibility with Sun NeWS (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/NeWS). I've long suspected there's a way to go from NeXT via NeWS -> NeWS/2 on OS/2 and then VNC to a modern machine but I've never taken the time to set up the pipeline.

It does have a SCSI chain but not only has all that hardware become really expensive but it also doesn't get you much unless you really want more local storage.

One of the interesting things is when you export screenshots they'll come across in color. I've wondered if there's modern ways of getting this device to emit color with some cheap hardware but I don't know enough about the pipeline.

I also have ViolaWWW on an HPUX machine. That thing is another story
I think the dropbox sync is pretty good. I self host and I know the keepass db is encrypted but I don't want to worry that my self-hosting is always immediately up to date. And I trust dropbox well enough, I think

I also don't love keepass getting access to my entire dropbox. But the easy solution is just to make another dropbox account with just the keepass file, and share it with my main dropbox, it'll sync the edits but force insulate the keepass permissions to a single file

I do the same with org-mode sync, might as well

Everyone I know has done this with a spreadsheet of cost per child.

Around abouts where I live, the cost is 40k+ per year per child, not counting the obscene amount of $ you need to spend for a house that has room for more than 1 child, that is going to cost you well over a million, and if you want it in an area with good schools, you are looking at nearly 2 million.

So yeah, people here do the calculation, because not everyone can afford to dump 2 million on a house so they can have a second child.

Sadly, ZigBee is a failure in practice. If you buy a Zigbee hub from one vendor, it is unlikely it will reliably work with Zigbee products from another vendor.

Zwave doesn't have this issue, but it lacks market adoption. Likely due to cost, but I am not sure.
