No article loaded for me, so I risk a "didn't read, but comment anyway" situation.

Quite a few years ago, there was the "Seven habits of highly successful people" (or something similar) fad. The idea being if only you can copy these habits, you, too will be successful. Except it doesn't work that way. These habits are more a symptom of the sort of personality that is successful, rather than a cause of success.

My personal impression is that people have a "happiness set point" that is more or less a hardwired part of their personality. Chronically happy people will be so even if their life isn't so great, and chronically unhappy people will be so even with good success metrics. Trying to move your happiness set point by emulating habits of happy people may not work very well, no better than trying to tell a chronically depressed person "just cheer up" or a chronically overweight person "just eat less".
Try replacing it in the sentence - it doesn't work, "the" is modifying "one" not Ukraine.

I suppose it could have been written "the Ukrainian one" but the the would still be there.
Double nit: this was not a misuse the deprecated term "The Ukraine" but the correct use of 'the' attaching to "Ukrainian one" referring to the NOTAM basically telling everyone to remain clear of Ukrainian airspace.
>the people I'm close with who struggle the most with finding day-to-day happiness are usually the ones who spend the most time in therapy

Funny, I thought the same thing about the amount of sick people visiting doctors. The healthiest people I know don't ever see doctors.
I'm confused by this comment. What does marketing have to do with open source at all? I don't care if anyone ever uses my software. It succeeds by virtue of being open source.

Open source software does not require a community to form around it. Software can be "done" and in low to no maintenance mode. It doesn't need to evolve with the time. It just is.

I welcome the discourse around healthy community building but I really dislike this trend of conflating community with open source as if somehow it's a property of free and open source software. It ain't.
Watch some Red Letter Media reviews. Specially mr Plinkett. Interestingly though, at the time Siskel did not like it, though Ebert did.

That said, sometimes people are fond of over examination and place more meaning into something than the director intended. Like music, often lyricists will not disclose the meaning of a song because people will give it their own meaning and may diverge significantly from the lyricists intent.

For one example of a director who candidly will admit to not knowingly adding specific meaning to a scene, see David Lynch. He'll say, I don't know, it felt right, or words to that effect.
As I understand it, the AC1900 is Archer A9 based. In either case, OpenWRT runs on my AC1900 just fine. I don't have any insight into anything related to the A20.

I should also add that this is my first TP-Link product, and my first time running OpenWRT, so don't take anything I say as gospel. I'd been mainly a Netgear guy for the last 20 years or so until about October of last year.
Besides the lithium ion battery issue, were they really that "impractical" before? Or was there just not anyone making ones that people wanted to buy...? Charging station availability as well?
The fact that I have to pay $4 for a gatorade says otherwise

Same here. If I was starting a non-Python project tomorrow I'd consider using Django to manage the database schema - especially now that we can describe custom indexes and constraints in migrations. Our project has gone thru over 1000 migrations so far tho we squash them down to 50 or so about once a year.

The "reserved" bit is from section 7.1.3:

> Each header declares or defines all identifiers listed in its associated subclause, and optionally declares or defines identifiers listed in its associated future library directions subclause and identifiers which are always reserved either for any use or for use as file scope identifiers.
> nobody gets in the history books for being happy.

“Getting in the history books” aka fame is per definition never going to happen for most people. An important part of growing up is recognizing that you are neither rich nor famous and properly won’t be. General life advice needs to take that into account.
On the other hand, today's system you're led the believe that A is good, when in fact A++++ is good and for certain things A is fairly bad.

Further when you change the scales you can't compare old and new. Is my A+ rated fridge better or worse than a new A rated fridge. Is it worth me updating it?

A system of 1 to 5 can scale upwards. Alternatively set A as the best possible score as allowed by the laws of physics.
Induction is more energy efficient if you had any idea how induction cooking works. I guess major municipal gas infrastructure is a zero-cost, zero-maintenance feature too.

I'm not saying "rah rah I hate gas stoves", I'm saying "wow, if they are a source for major indoor air pollution, and we should be migrating off residential fossil fuel anyway, and induction is damned near as good if not better and safer than gas, then everyone should consider induction anyway".

Feel free to also ignore the many people saying that venting should be in the calculus of the air-quality discussion. That doesn't fit your narrative.
We are thinking of switching some gas appliances to electric in our old farmhouse but we probably need to rework our electrical panel completely to add high amperage services for an induction range (my wife won't accept an ordinary electric range) and an electric water heater.

Fortunately our son is in training as a handyman and that means we can get him working on projects of all kinds around the farm. Of all the trades, electricity is the one that I know enough about to supervise somebody. (e.g. I am baffled by plumbing)
> which is actually unlikely, sarcasm aside, even the absolute worst systems have more structure than that in a microservice architecture

Nope, the absolute worst systems have the same complex circular dependencies as monolithic BBOMs, the microservices just call into each over the network rather as function calls (imagine for example an API request into service A that calls into service B that calls back into service A). You may argue that makes it not a true microservices architecture, but one could make the same claim about a modular monolith.
So interesting to see how other disciplines are becoming relevant as AI continues to integrate into everyday life.
And when you don't have bash? ...

>In fact, it's not different from bash - bash is always the same, you just type `az` instead of `aws-cli`.

Not all have (or default to) bash

Whereas Terraform is "the same" everywhere
Reiner Knizia is my favorite game designer of all time. I love how he takes familiar games and "bends" [1] them into new games by applying the right incentives into other games. For example, Lost Cities starts off looking like Solitaire, but when I play it I feel like I am using skills of reading my opponents hands that I learned from my (brief) bridge days.

If you are a gamer, I cannot recommend highly enough Tigris and Euphrates, Ra, Lost Cities, or Samurai

[1] I am trying to make a General Relativity metaphor here.
I don't think OP is really unearthing a hidden message/theme deliberately buried in the movie as much as they may be simply interpreting it through their own unique lens. We all look at entertainment through our own lenses and there's the tendency to project a lot of ourselves and our own thoughts onto it--stuff the media's creator may not have even thought about. Different people have different lenses and might see vastly different things in the same movie.

I have to admit, I never read that deeply into Ferris Bueller. I thought the character was just kind of a charismatic bully and that he spent the movie pushing his own ideas of fun onto his introverted friend, ultimately at that friend's expense. Wildly different take-away than OP's, and neither of us are "correct".
Serverless functions are good for some stuff: clear this cache on this schedule, run this task when XYZ happens, etc..

But that is not the popular usecase for celery. Often you want "some code" (that you likely already have written) to be executed async. Sure, you can create a public interface for "some code" then write a record, that the serverless function is looking for, that then calls back to that interface (but is it a web interface???? then you have a problem where if the job takes too long to complete, what about http timeouts ... ) and now you're really creating a big circle for something that should be simple: execute some code outside of the request (send an email, hit an api, whatever).

Serverless functions really shouldn't contain much logic either, because it's too complicated to test.
Anything that's not linear algebra
omg. ok, adopting some F features is an interesting idea. but why are they trying to make that thing with syntax happen?
From the article:

> [Melissa de Witt] Do you think layoffs in tech are some indication of a tech bubble bursting or the company preparing for a recession?

> [Professor Jeffrey Pfeffer] Could there be a tech recession? Yes. Was there a bubble in valuations? Absolutely. Did Meta overhire? Probably. But is that why they are laying people off? Of course not. Meta has plenty of money. These companies are all making money. They are doing it because other companies are doing it.

This may be true, but I’m not sure how we escape this: The market has different expectations now, leadership has to be sensitive to the expectations of the market, etc.

“Making money” has a direct correlation with “risk taking”: When you have money pouring in it’s easy to allocate some to “moon shot” projects. Less money coming in and you can still make “improvements”. When money starts drying up you can only do “maintenance”.
Yes, I’m also glad to hear it’s future path is already paved. Sloane described the process and history in the paper:

“In 2009, in order to ensure the long-term future of the database, I set up a non-profit foundation, The OEIS Foundation Inc., a 501(c)(3) Public Charity, whose purpose is to own, maintain and raise funds to support The On-Line Encyclopedia of Integer Se- quences or OEIS.

On October 26, 2009, I transferred the intellectual property of The On-Line Ency- clopedia of Integer Sequences to the Foundation. A new OEIS with multiple editors was launched on November 11, 2010.

Since then it has been possible for anyone in the world to propose a new sequence or an update to an existing sequence. To do this, users must first register, and then submissions are reviewed by the editors before they become a permanent part of the OEIS. Technically the OEIS is now a “moderated wiki”.

I started writing this article on November 11, 2022, noting that this marked twelve years of successful operation of the online OEIS, and also that the database is in its 59th year of existence.”
Yeah, NOTAMs come into play when the shit hits the fan; radios are dead and you can't reach the tower kinda thing, but in that case just be sure you declared emergency, then they (probably) won't get you much for landing on a closed runway or a taxiway.
This is good for really simple scheduling of stuff: https://schedule.readthedocs.io/en/stable/
Would you like to be specific, or link to something with more context, for those who don't know what you are referring to?
Wouldn't this strategy still allow performance gains when running on a processor that does NaN propagation?
That's POSIX, not the C language standard. https://www.iso-9899.info/n1570.html#7.31 lists the library API names reserved for future use; section 7.1.3 in the same document states explicitly that they are reserved.

It's not that the word "island" has any particular significance; it's that all names starting with "is" followed by a lowercase letter are reserved (in external linkage and in the global scope of files that #include <ctype.h>), so that future versions of the language can add more standard library functions along the lines of isalpha, isdigit, etc., without making the current standards committee guess in advance which specific names following that pattern their successors might want to add in the future, and without breaking existing code. (Unless that existing code ignores these rules, which seems to be fairly common in practice.)
Great feedback. Is the C4 model something you had explored before? I'm wondering what areas you find most overwhelming as the idea of drawing boxes, enriching them is the simplicity we're aiming for.
For real numbers, there’s the dictionary of real numbers (https://www.amazon.com/Dictionary-Real-Numbers-Jonathan-Borw...), “a list of just over 100,000 eight-digit real numbers in the interval [0,1) that arise as the first eight digits of special values of familiar functions”

Its online equivalent is the inverse symbolic calculator (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inverse_Symbolic_Calculator)

OK haha good one then. Mine was a bit too subtle.
Or, the threat was overstated because the product was protected. Don’t hold your breath for a trend reversal in SF.
If you need to upgrade your service entrance, if it's within your means, go to 400A to future proof (EVs, HVAC and hot water heat pumps, induction stove, and other large loads all add up, along with colocated generation of some sort). Depending on your authority having jurisdiction (AHJ) and utility, they may require a licensed electrician to replace the raceway or similar entrance to the meter. 200A is satisfactory if greater amperage isn't available (US centric advice). Think of this as the residential version of "dig once" [1].

EDIT: Yes, you may not need 400A immediately, but if you're doing an upgrade, the cost delta between the conductors for 200A vs 400A is not substantial except for very long runs. Also, some utilities will cover the cost of a service upgrade to the meter; from the meter onward into the home is your cost. Balance cost with future needs, future labor costs, etc. Very similar to dropping a whole bunch of cheap fiber in a trench just in case you need it in the future.

I usually recommend people combine this work with a solar PV install, to capture the 30% federal tax credit towards the work (if you can justify the upgrade as necessary, which you can if your current service is less than 200A), as it has no limit on the amount you can capture as part of the install (versus the previous tax credit for electrical upgrade costs for installing an EV charging station).

> The last three years would like a word.

There is nothing unusual about the last three years. Public health measures have frequently come with stiff penalties, since the beginning. “Sin taxes”, drug prohibition, water quality and vaccine mandates, etc.
I mean certainly some of it is social contagion but what kicked off the contagion? I feel like in an article talking about why tech is laying people off surely interest rates should at least appear as a possible reason.

Wow looks beautiful, congratulations. Would love to learn about the development experience, specially taking into consideration that you've used Lisp.
Congrats on shipping it!

I've been following the progress since I've been learning Common Lisp here and there over the past year or so.
Haha I see. I normally prefer non-charred tortillas because whenever they are charred it is because I forgot them in the stove so they get _very_ charred.

Though I do like restaurant provided charred flour tortillas

In terms of caring about my devices it’s the other way around. While I’m gentle, Apple stopped caring about longevity for the latest and most thinnest. Maybe the current gen will finally outdo the peak of 2014 MBP.

After a number of laptops, it starts to feel like you’re buying another premature death of a new laptop instead of a new laptop.

Have hopes for the new series. Maybe in a year or two.

Show HN: Tagging Assistant – add AWS cost allocation tags in your dev pipeline
Hi HN! My name is Ilia. I'm here with my co-founders Thomas and Daniele to share our new feature, Tagging Assistant.

AWS Cost Allocation Tags are labels on resources that attribute and track cloud costs. Tagging is a prerequisite to assigning cost ownership (e.g. by team/app/cost center) and creating cloud cost accountability.

Tagging AWS resources is a manual process that’s done either when a resource is spun up or during a cost firefighting initiative to understand cost ownership. We figured there had to be a better way and set out to make tagging a seamless part of development pipelines that use GitHub and Terraform.

Once set up, the Tagging Assistant GitHub action will allow you to continuously enforce and maintain your AWS tagging strategy within your Terraform projects. Each GitHub repository can be associated with a catalog key that maps to tag key-value pairs within the Tag Catalog on the Cloudthread App. Adding or changing tag key-value pairs in a Cloudthread’s Tag Catalog entry will generate a tagging update Pull Request each time the action runs, and fail if the appropriate tagging is not in place. An example of such an update is `.tf` build file getting `(locals {tags = …}})` added.

All resources defined via Terraform in the repository will receive the same tags defined via the Tag Catalog.

This is just the start – in the future we’ll create more tagging granularity so that it is possible to tag different provider aliases differently within a single project.

A graphic showing how this works is here:

https://www.cloudthread.io/product/tagging-assistant

Tagging Assistant is free to use and instructions to set it up are in our docs below.

https://docs.cloudthread.io/guides/setting-up-tag-catalog

By installing Tagging Assistant you’ll get access to the free version of Cloudthread’s cost visibility, savings insights, and unit economics features.

Very excited to get feedback! Try it out, let us know what you think, and feel free to reach out directly to hey@cloudthread.io or by using the chat icon bottom right on the Cloudthread app.
Ask HN: Is it just me, or is HN messing up dates?
We had this thread, for example, that I could have swore was a week ago, and yet it says it was 1 day ago.

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34312937

If you can go back to your previous comments, and look at the dates for when it said they were posted, I would be curious to see if you are also seeing strangely low dates. Or maybe my mind is just playing tricks on me.
Something thing like grpc solves this problem.
How much does it cost to upgrade the service entrance and run new electric lines of sufficient capacity to run an induction range through 19th/early 20th Century buildings that were never designed for that? I'm betting it's not cheap. One site estimates $15,000-30,000.

The range I'm looking at on the Lowes site requires nearly 12kW if you want to use all the burners, not counting the oven. That's 100 amps just to run the range without any other electric usage in the apartment.
> I'd rather work on a bad microservice than a bad monolith.

That's not the choice. The choice is between a bad monolith or a bad microservices ecosystem.

And the microservices tend to come with organizational policies too, that may or may not allow you to access, see, or change some subset of them.
The DR is one of the wealthiest Caribbean countries, and is rapidly getting their shit together. They're also a Spanish speaking nation with enormous cultural, economic, familial, and transportation ties to the rest of LATAM (particularly their hated cousin Puerto Rico).

Haiti is less a country and more corruption as an enterprise, on the back of robbing farmers who own very small plots of destroyed soil.
Is "AI" going to be used to mass produce content that is "good enough" to be watchable and gets some views through good SEO? Sure.

But are most people going to actually love and want to follow those channels that churn out this kind of stuff? IMO, hell no.

Channels only thrive when they're loved and get comments and likes and people are genuinely excited about seeing the next video.
Test it for yourself. The beta is free. Whats the point in reading about it when you can easily try it out
Yes! Often satisfaction and pleasure are in a conflicting relationship.

When you ask a software developer that has worked for 3 years on a "successful" side project. He will probably tell you that it cost him lots of evenings he could have been seeing friends or sleeping. Yet that same person may feel very satisfied for having done so.

Still. It is difficult territory. Dissatisfaction is often leads to action that can then lead to "societal success". Should you be dissatisfied then? The Tony Robbinses of the world might say yes!

The blog post clearly states what the link to climate activism is according to the blog author. The conflict of interest of the meta study authors and suspected opposition to gas stoves on climate grounds by the regulator is clearly stated.
Some are! The ones who had rich parents anyway. Turns out an important habit of successful people, often left off these lists, is being born into wealth.
Indeed. I don't see many downsides to increasing solar and wind. Every turn of the blade is a volume of gas that is not burned for electricity.
Only issue is ownership.
I worked previously with a security solution from $bigcorp, it ran on linux. If you wanted to do a backup to a Windows server, your only option, for a very long time, was to use SMBv1 only.
