My guess is that they don’t want to cover a $1,000/month drug to save costs that you may not incur for many years / when you’re no longer insured by them.

It only works if all the companies agree to cover it.
Even preventing direct lateral moves prevents... competition. Where would we be without the Traitorous Eight?
It sounds like you've gotten older and have gained some wisdom. It's my belief that as we get older and gain more life experience, we tend to feel more comfortable in social situations. When I was younger, I used to get really nervous in new environments, but as I've grown older I've learned some basic social skills that have really helped me feel more confident. I've also come to realize that it's totally okay to be alone in a social setting, or to go up and talk to people you don't know. Sometimes people are friendly, and other times they might not be as nice, but either way it's no big deal. I think the key is just to be present in the moment and not worry too much about what might happen. It all comes down to living your life and learning from your experiences.
I will remember Creative as the company that purchased two of the greatest music synthesizer companies, E-Mu and Ensoniq, merged them, and then destroyed them.
Yeah it's weird that in spite of all the investment and awesome improvement in web tech the past decade, we still have such janky support for basic things like comboboxes and date pickers. Mobile browsers seem to have decent defaults but desktops are still eh.
This seems at its core, like shadowbanning, actively hostile at some level? It would be more altruistic to just be honest with the banned user; this is manipulative and wasting their time.

Seen from that perspective someone has to wonder why a company would do this, actively cause harm to a customer?

It drifts into something resembling sabotage, and labeled that way would lead to a host of questions and criticisms.
Too damn many elected offices and direct initiatives on the ballot.
Ask HN: As a startup, what are your must-have sections for a landing page?
Hello guys,

Let's say you are going to launch a new product, and you are going to create a new landing page for it, what must-have sections do you think should be included in the landing page?

For me, it's:
- Hero
- Features matrix
- Social proof
- Pricing/Payment
- CTA

Other sections I might consider:
- Gallery carousel
- Founder letter
- Logo clouds

How about you?
The reason you have to pay for a cloud of virtual chickens, is because you can’t get decent bandwidth on a few free range beef & dairy cattle.

A single well tended rack in a closet on-site, with a few single cpu servers hosting multiple applications, a SAN, and a fat data pipe could replace hundreds of Kubernetes clusters — if there wasn’t a cartel on network speed.

I'm hope the trend will go nuclear one day :))
Alternators won't do it?
This is a dangerous way to think.

First, the climate change models are imperfect. In the worst case we're already out of time, in the best case we have a lot. A lot of people stopped believing in Climage Change when Al Gore's chosen predictions did not come true on the timeline he suggested in "An Inconvenient Truth". Being overly alarmist can cost credibility, which leads to my next point: there is only so far people are willing to go voluntarily to fight climate change. At some point they will say the expenses are not justified, especially when aggressive predictions do not come true. "Prediction is hard, especially about the future" as Robert Oppenheimer said.

How much is the average American, let alone the average global citizen willing to spend, willing to lower their quality of life to protect the climate? This isn't a theoretical matter of eating a few less hamburgers, it's about spending weeks in a cold house in Winter instead of a toasty, comfy one. "I'll just put on a sweater", doesn't work for everyone. In fact there is a huge racial equity issue involved with telling people to turn down their thermostat: darker skinned people are genetically tuned for warmer climates. It's a lot more painful for a Somalian immigrant in Minneapolis to be forced to run their thermostat at 58 degrees Fahrenheit in the midst of a sub-zero Winter than, say, someone of Swedish heritage.

Once people reach their voluntary limits of sacrifice for the climate change cause, things get a lot more difficult. Do you simply force them to comply? How? What kind of force do you use? What sort of dystopian methods must be employed to force people to make sacrifices they don't want to make?

My point is this: a measured, careful, response to Climate Change will likely yield better long term results than a panic driven response based on the most aggressive climate models. Just as in a fire drill people are encouraged to act in an orderly manner to avoid the suboptimal outcome of mayhem, a measured, thoughtful response, that balances costs will lead to a better outcome. We only have one chance to do this, let's do it right.
Likely depends on your age and/or experience.
Because practicing is tedious.

I'm willing to bet that there are some other long-term side effects that haven't even been detected yet. Since I'm not obese I'll let others take the risk.

We had a set. Fun to throw them up into the air and dodge them as they came down.
Literally don’t care, it’s not our problem to be the world police. Where is my free healthcare/college/6mo of parental leave?

Oh wait, we gave a bunch of weapons to Ukraine so they could fight Putin when they were stupid enough to give up their nukes in the 90s with the Russian bear on their doorstep. Some weapons makers also made a lot of money, but you don’t hear democrats talking about that (I’m looking at you Maria Cantwell lol).

We’ve basically been gaslit into believing this is a moral imperative to support giving $$$ to Ukraine and many other countries. This is illogical it should be America First!
I've come across those in my searching before, they are very cool! There is a guy on YT that did a CNC wire cutter for cutting sculptures out of big blocks of granite.

For my application (wooden puzzles), the kerf is essential to be ~0.2mm so I can't use this. The 50m blade length won't be all in one stretch, it is unwound off a spool and wound onto another; though that is a great/funny sight to imagine

Yup. That's what I meant too. The Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corp doesn't care much about US sanctions, but other companies selling them {insert thing} do, if it has financial repercussions.
Bing Maps has a chief of staff??

Chief of what? People use Bing Maps?
I think you are wrong. Not completely, but I think you missed the massive change in attitudes that took place the past few years. WFH is likely going to stay in some shape or form since it is clear it can work ( and heavens know emplopyers full remote positions have their pick of qualified candidates ) and likely some RTO will follow ( with another round of - likely muted due to recession - resignations ), but I would hesitate to conclude that good old days are here again. I am not going back.
Why would the board be happy? Do they think they know something the market doesn't?
> I think crypto will similarly find its way into the traditional finance sector and live on but the utopia of decentralised finance will never eventuate.

To do that it would have to do something, anything, even one tiny little bit better than something in finance.

So far it's like quantum computing. Nothing is better solved with a quantum computer right now. Will that change in the future? Maybe. Until it does they simply won't be used. After all, why would they - except as an opportunity to build in-house expertise in a new space, and for the perception of being hip?

There is no preordained future where it's accepted, it has to earn its spot.
They "cracked down" on...two glass manufacturers and a security firm?

Posting this on the website and claiming that it constitutes "vigorous enforcement" shows just how ineffective these underfunded Government agencies typically are. They rarely choose to go after large companies, who can keep flouting regulations with impunity.

I remember trying to learn Ruby on Rails. I read all the books and started playing around with scaffolding. It was giving me problems and I was talking to a senior developer from the community about it and he said: “Everyone knows you don’t use scaffolding, no one does that.”

It was super confusing because ALL of the documentation EVERYWHERE said to do it that way, but in the community of pro developers, they all knew it was just a stunt feature to make it easy to onboard.

I think perhaps it is rooted in the nature of how Ruby was created, more of a an amorphous mob of hobbyist hipster pot smoking ultra laid back creative engineers who dropped out of high school versus “.NET” or Java which are backed by major enterprises.
>You can protect your data, and your code. But you can't really stop someone quitting a job at your company, working somewhere else and reimplementing a software system that worked well. It might take years to do it, but probably not decades.

I don't even think this case is undesirable. If we were welders, it would be absurd to be prevented from using a welding technique we learned on the job at a new employer. System design is just a technique.
You must be on some garbage trackers if you're getting away with multiple accounts. On a good tracker, there will be good freeleech options you can use to build buffer.

I'm also not sure if you mean global ratio, or ratio per download. If you mean the latter, the majority of trackers will also have a minimum seed time you can hit instead of a 1.0 ratio.
Learning from different fields has been really beneficial to me. When I was young, I was very into etiquette books like The Essential 55. Even reading "outdated" social analysis/advice is helpful because it gives me a bigger picture of the history of different cultural behaviors, and ways to think about how I present myself.

In high school, I taught martial arts at the place that I grew up going to, and they had a pretty good program for training young people to instruct different age groups, talk to parents, keep up with your own training, etc. So, suggestion 2 is take team/training advice from weird solo sports. People love to make management like football or baseball, but why not think about how people get to the "top of their game" in pool or something? There are a lot of different coaching vibes.

Soooo after that I was a k-8 teacher for a few years, which is another great group of people to look at for examples. People who can get a room full of 7 year olds to function are verrryyyy good at soft skills, and you just change the vocabulary a little to make it for adults.
Non-competes that pay you at or near your salary during garden leave are a different thing. The bog-standard non-compete in a normal SWE or IT position prohibits you from making a living at all.

I recently did this for one of my GitHub repos which runs several test suites (cumulatively taking >1h). If your actions are slow, pay attention to the IAM role session duration. The maximum duration with role chaining is 1 hour.

In the end your credentials need to outlive your CI/CD actions.
Circulating Spike Protein Detected in Post–Covid-19 mRNA Vaccine Myocarditis
I had the 80s versions of these, a cox P-51 and a red little toni cosmic wind. Super fun once you could get them started but also crazy messy. Playing with them lead me to build an RC Great Planes PT-40 (0.40), a super sportster, a gentle lady rc glider, and another glider that had an electric motor with retractable blades to launch it. Instead of standard gliders which used a whole roll of rubber tubing as large as a soccer field. Then I got into RC helicopters which are pretty difficult to learn how to fly but absolutely crazy what you could do with them 3 dimensionally once you did.

So much of my kid job money, allowance, holiday and birthday money was spent going through the Tower Hobbies catalog. Good times.

I replaced a bunch of Dell laptop keyboards in 2006. Easy peasy.
Looks like a nice basic set of components ala Bootstrap & DaisyUI. Kinda wish Tailwind would just build these component classes in directly vs encouraging the copypasta of utilities, but maybe I'm not the right customer for Tailwind.
The loops in time section was really interesting.

This is about people downloading torrents from public trackers. These law firms do not care about private trackers, there is more money to be made on public trackers.

What these law firms definitely don’t care about is going after uploaders, that would obviously ruin their business model.
I applied to Amazon several years ago before I started my own company. I got to the final round of interviews and I cannot express how almost every single person I interviewed with that day (8 fucking interviews in a single day, in person) seemed to not give a shit about what I was saying. It was a draining process and by the end I just wanted to leave. I didn’t get an offer.
17K people is about 1% of total employees. While each of these job losses matters a lot to the people involved, a 1% reduction in the face of what is surely more than a 10% change in medium-term projections is hardly proof of crazy over-hiring or terrible planning.

There’s no doubt that Amazon puts profits over people. They’re a profit-seeking enterprise (and a fairly effective one at that).
It's amazing how many Christian bible scholars get duped by obvious forgeries. As mentioned in the article the "Museum of the Bible" bought a lot of fakes, some of them quite crude. And of course the Ohio Stones: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Newark_Holy_Stones which to a Modern Hebrew speaker are clearly based on a very modern script.
I always thought Alexa was just a play to get more data, especially data about apps/services outside Amazon's ecosystem. Every time you tell Alexa to play a song (on Spotify) or turn up the temperature (on the smart thermostat), Amazon is analyzing that data. Maybe they'll start showing you ads for sweaters since they know you're always cold. LOL

Also, the more you ask Alexa a question, the less you search on Google. And that's gotta be worth a bunch to Amazon. At least I thought it was.
"""Fundamentally, this emphasis on short term productivity is a problem rooted deep in the modern tech culture."""

I think it's mostly driven by agile development. Agile has killed technical apprenticeship in the workplace. What has replaced it is the project manager/product owner with a cadre of junior engineers, all of whom are trying to 'figure it out' by reading Stack Overflow posts.

Many tech interviewers prioritize 'fundamentals' during hiring (and by doing so bias the hiring process to college grads but i digress). Your team has a lot of well versed, knowledgeable engineers that can write heap sorts, bubble sorts and compute the bigO notation and write a left-handed parser, but they don't know how to build a piece of software yet. The internet becomes your mentor and you get that gadget shipped.

The result of course is the Cambrian explosion of garbage systems left behind by junior engineers that have since moved on to other jobs. Looks like it's time to rewrite that code with a new team!

I think fundamentals are important but unlike other academic disciplines there's a huge gap between academic CS and actual software work. In CS you need senior ICs to bridge that gap.
Agreed. Injecting a milliliter of fluid worth as much as a new car makes me twitchy.
> What does a Treeview look like - in a ".up" file, can I walk a tree (like io.fs.FS) ?

Yes, you can just write normal Go code to traverse a filesystem and do with it whatever you like.

> Can I compile a Pushup app into a giant WASM hairball and run the whole thing in the browser ?

I haven't tried this so I don't know what would happen, and a lot would depend on what kind of JS host runtime support there was for anything that is doing a syscall.

But related to WASM, an idea I have is to add syntax to be able to split a Pushup page into client-side and server-side code, compile the client-side code to WASM, and use the Pushup compiler to generate the appropriate handoffs for any network calls between (AJAX, websocket, etc.)
Wouldn’t it be easier to just equip Miller Light with wings?
Does this also include deploy SSH keys?
Based on retail price of the existing blades (50 x 100mm blades == 1 x 50m blade) puts it around $125. If they make them for ~25% of that, each blade is ~$30. Though I anticipate a higher cost to develop the process if necessary.
They're just journalists playing with speculation. Half a century ago, it was about nukes, rockets, quantum stuff, robots, and AI. Nobody is really an expert in ChatGPT specifically, so it's a low hanging fruit.
at the risk of ruining a perfect keyboard you may super glue some tactile feedback
I also thought this is what Tailwind already provided.
Indeed, at high volume the cost of stuffing/testing is comparable to the cost of the part ~1mil=$/1000. Actually, cost can increase more significantly if the number of different components increases too much (and inventory is more annoying) so it may be cheaper to stuff 2 or more of the same component rather than have more different values. Of course nobody really cares about this, if you're making less than ~100k/mo since setup costs dominate. A single line can do ~250k/mo running 24 hours. If the line runs less than 8h/day, they'll turn it off and/or switch to a different product on that line each month, which can cost multiple $k.
Ask HN: What's on your private torrent tracker that can't be found elsewhere?
Given the other top-ranking thread about private trackers: what content do you have access to, on your private tracker, that you couldn't find elsewhere?

Please share some (as much as possible) concrete examples of content you have seen there that wasn't seeded or available elsewhere.
> Also, what about IDE plugins?

An LSP server for Pushup syntax is on the informal roadmap.
I am in the Ukrainian army. Sometimes, for fun, we shoot MANPADS at the tanks because we already took down all the jets. It’s super fun you should try enlisting.
Ok. Your salary is $1, but we reliably pay a bonus of $250k.
Will Go ever be able to encrypt/decrypt ECDH, similar to the RSA package?
I believe the max duration of an assumed role session is 12 hours, but this can be changed per-role.
The problem is that these administration tools were completely publicly accessible if you knew the URL. Yes, if you've got a torrent file from a site, you know the tracker URL and (your own) passkey. The issue here is someone could get the passkey that the admin tool uses to snatch from other private trackers.

If you can't see how that is an issue I have no words that can make that more clear for you.
When I ran self-hosted Wordpress sites I wrote “lock” and “unlock” shell scripts that would alter file/directory permissions so Wordpress could install updates on a fixed schedule. We could also “unlock” and push updates by hand if a patch seemed critical.

But, we were running our own Linux servers and had some idea of what we were doing. Many Wordpress site admins don’t. And Wordpress community has decided to err on the side of fast and easy patching over ideal server settings.

And honestly it’s hard to fault that decision; the vast majority of attempts on WP sites target known and patched vulnerabilities. Even this article notes “sites running outdated or unpatched versions of these WordPress tools are at risk.” (emphasis mine) Anything that helps people patch faster is probably the right choice for the WP community.
The whole idea that obesity is a “stigma” is overplayed. Obesity is unhealthy. If I see an obese young child, I might form a negative opinion about their parents. If an adult is obese, they should want to lose weight because it will make them healthier.
While that could happen, Jeffries was a manager on Trump’s first impeachment so I think that would be making quite a statement.

After the midterms, if proximity to Trump had helped certain at-risk seats, then Trump himself could be nominated for Speaker. As of today, Boebert is telling Trump how little influence he has.
it could be the effects of caloric restriction. 3 months, in the context of a whole life plus increased lifespan is not that much time.
The original Web3 stuff that came less than a year after the Web2 stuff in the early 2000's, a few years before the web went to 11, two decades ago.

Web3 sounds to me like antiquated nostalgia for something that happened at the turn of the century.
There is usually no state or local law that covers the matter well. This is still a frontier. The tragic suicide of Megan Meier, which brought this topic to my own attention, occurred less than a decade ago.

Federal computer abuse legislation is about as well as the crime can be prosecuted, I believe due to 1st Amendment protection of free speech.

Ultimately it's up to teaching our children to be strong, as this is easily an extranational threat.
I hate to say I called it but I literally called it years ago, "AI" will be the new grift in due time.

For anyone that wants to lose weight without taking drugs, just try eating only eggs, liver, and ribeye steaks with salt and drinking only water. You can eat to satiety on this diet - in fact you can just stuff yourself as much as you want - and you will lose weight and get in shape. Also, you'll find that it is impossible to eat a more nutrient dense and nutritionally complete diet than liver, eggs, and ribeye steaks. Remember never to drink a calorie.
FWIW, it does not seem like an uncommon reaction. My wife had a similar questions bordering on disbelief, when I was giving her a glimpse of current US immigration system based on my experience alone.
didn't the OP state that someone was going to use ML so people could talk to their pets? That's grift because there is fundamentally zero science to make that happen so they would just be lying to all their customers.
The Fed is trying to trigger a recession, although they'll never come out and say it, because they want to increase the unemployment rate. Increased unemployment will put a stop to both price and wage inflation. At this point the Fed is trying to prevent a wage price spiral and a resetting of expectations among the public towards more inflation.
Probability changes with sample size? Any source for that claim?

AFAIK only variance changes with sample size.

Otherwise statistics would be quite useless in general as I understand it.

Say in the general population 10% are excellent. If I look at 10 randomly selected people I expect that one of them is excellent. If I look at 10 000 people should I really expect that more than 1 000 are excellent? That claim does not make sense to me.
