Having been both on the buy and sell side is a very valuable perspective to include.

Do you have a sense of where some good dividing lines are between what to give to the general public, what contributors get, and what is marketable?

As an example, AISHub data contributors get a free real-time stream of global data in the same format that comes out of an AIS receiver. They also get limited API access: https://www.aishub.net/api

On top of that, the company that runs AISHub sells both software and data services: http://www.astrapaging.com/data-services
That's interesting. Makes sense for athletes, but unfortunately seems not transferable to non-athletes, simply because hardly anyone has time for "huge amounts of low intensity" training.

Some people find success in organizing their life to get enough exercise in the natural way, as part of activities of their day, but I think the popularity of HIIT in recent days clearly indicates there's also lots of people who want to optimize for minimum of time spent on exercising. Myself I'm one of such people.

The actual reality is that starting a company is very complex, and for every “rule” there’s a very successful company that did the opposite.

If your takeaway from this is that “build it and they will come” is a good go to market strategy, you’d be terribly wrong in the vast majority of cases. It worked in this case because it was a solution to a painful, concrete problem and the product hunt audience happened to be the right customer suffering from that problem.
a much more convenient mitigation - create an item without a password, so it would autofill username (and not autofill if you're being phished, so domains wouldn't match), so all you'd have to do is enter the password from memory

>Certainly not the same effect. HIT training doesn’t improve respiratory or cardiovascular fitness as effectively as continuous training does, and it doesn’t condition the muscles for endurance as effectively as continuous training does either.

This is actually incorrect. It's not well known, but the science is actually very clear about this. HIIT is much more effective then long term continuous exercise for VO2 max. This has been shown across Several studies.

Many coaches and training programs don't incorporate the science into their training regimes. So so called "experts" don't really know. You'll be surprised how ingrained the belief is and it's hard to turn it around if you've been under the belief for years that you need to do long continuous training routines to improve cardio.

Roger Bannister the first person to clear the 4 minute mile used HIIT exclusively for his training and he's the first person to change the science around this. The myth, however, persists and you still see people plugging in miles and miles into their training routine when HIIT works better.

This means that a lot of tricks you’ve read about how to beat automated screening such as include certain phrases of job descriptions in your resume, repeat “hot” keywords, fill your resumes up with random metrics, etc. doesn’t work on us. They can even hurt when you apply to companies like us, because the resume space used for these tricks is the space you aren’t using for things that are relevant to us.

Emphasis mine. They're not penalizing folks for the alphabet soup, but pointing out it's a lost opportunity when you have finite space.

This would require quite a bit of hardware on both cars and houses to work. And in many ways doing both backup to the house and being able to feed into the grid is pretty damn hard.

So I will be surprised if this happens on large scale. This is an idea that sound great on paper but there are really a lot of practical issue between where we are now and in this ideal future.
That's good advice. I already made that assumption when the leak was first publicised and changed all of my important passwords the same day. I'm just trying to decide whether it's worth changing the hundreds of other low value passwords that were once stored in LastPass. I migrated to another service a few years ago, but I'm concerned the attackers have got hold of older backups, containing sensitive data that I had deleted, but with LastPass's poor communication, there is no way of knowing.
Bottom line: you're still only valuing something by what you are willing to pay for it. That is its value to you. (Others assign a different value, but that's how the market works.)

I wonder what Mac OS X would have looked like if Susan and Bruce had been given access to the power of a G3 and millions of colors instead of chunky bits.

I imagine it would have looked like a very, very well-designed iPhone app: soft and welcoming, yet with delightful new features that became apparent with use, and serious functionality that would stay out of the way until it was needed.

I bet MacPaint would have looked a lot like Paper or Procreate.

It's worse in minority languages, where the whole movement has been co-opted by well-meaning learners, who happen to share the nationality of the group who speaks the language natively and has kept it alive, calling native speakers bigots for stating their language doesn't work like English and to quit trying to translate English into it directly.

Not to mention all the other classism issues that said natives face at the hands of non-native learners/speakers, including accent discrimination when the others literally only use English phonemes.

And I'm not part of that language's native speaker group, I just recognise they should probably be included in stuff said about it, and try to respect what native speakers say, even if it's not how English works.

MRR is meaningless in larger startups because for all intents and purposes would be eaten by the salaries in two seconds, unless it's huge. At any point it becomes reported as annual revenue.

kubenav v4 – Open-source Kubernetes app for Android and iOS
Hi, I'm super excited to announce that kubenav v4 is finally available. kubenav is an Android and iOS app (also available for Linux, macOS and Windows) to manage your Kubernetes clusters. Think of kubectl or the Kubernetes dashboard (https://github.com/kubernetes/dashboard) for your smartphone.

Version 4 is a complete rewrite of the app in Flutter and Go and supports all major function you need to manage your Kubernetes workloads, like viewing, editing and deleting resource, getting the logs of your workloads, getting a terminal for your containers and port-forward your services.
Dated or just plain worse?

There needs to be a differentiation between good and bad actors in this drama as opposed to the lazy and inaccurate idea of "the crypto grift".

These recent billion-dollar grifts plaguing crypto have primarily been enabled by actors working steadfastly against all of crypto's core principles: decentralisation, secure your own money, no middle-man.

These players are employing all of the same tactics enabled by the traditional financial system to carry out these scams: centralisation, entrust someone else to secure your money, employ a middle-man.

It's still legitimate to criticise crypto, there are many issues there: projects that fall short of the goal of the decentralisation, someone securing their own money can end just as badly as entrusting someone not worthy of it, etc.

But lumping these recent events, of someone foreign to the crypto community coming in and actually setting out to defraud people outright, by lying to them about what they're doing, and twisting the ideals of crypto into nothingness, aided notably in the FTX case by continual mainstream media hype - this is a scam in an of itself plain and simple. Crypto was used as a buzzword to sucker people in - in the very negative sense of being used. Crypto wasn't the cause here.

How many billions would have been lost of FTX's customers money had SBF and FTX not been endlessly paraded over the mainstream news, and cover-pages of major financial, news and culture publications since it began?

It is those colossal failures of journalism, and/or conflicts of interest, that need to have a light shone on them, investigated and mitigated/regulated better.

Labelling this "the crypto grift", is actually continuing the grift to an unfair even worse conclusion - blaming crypto not for something done by it, but for something done to it.

"This looks like results I would expect and seems correct" is the exact same level of quality I've encountered when using these systems. It takes someone who already knows what they're doing to parse and QA the results. I feel like this is going to potentially speed up things that an expert could eventually figure out themself, but going past the expert's own knowledge is going to be disappointing and painful.

Why are you saying these are the wrong incentives? If these corporations are failing and making bad decisions that result in more competition, which eventually brings them down, isn’t that “creative destruction” at work. Or are you saying that “creative destruction” itself is a bad mechanism that should be managed? Something else?

I've seen people get frustrated by the "don't"s before, but I think that's generally taking the first degree approximation too literally.
Feel free to hand-write assembly or roll your own crypto, but don't depend on it for anything serious unless you are an expert or have it reviewed by one. Doing so for learning and fun is fine, if that's clearly called out such that no one accidentally depends on it for something serious. There's only one way to become good at something, and that's good practice!

In a professional setting there's a responsibility to the end user which generally precludes doing these dangerous things - that is, one should feel free to take up woodworking as a hobby but shouldn't offer to build someone's house unless you're a licensed professional.
> Anti-trust lawsuits don't require an absolute monopoly. It requires proving that a company behaved anti-competitively

Also, having a monopoly (even an absolution monopoly) does not automatically mean you are violating antitrust law. You had to do something anti-competitive to get that monopoly or be doing something anti-competitive to maintain it.

The easiest way to think about it is that US antitrust law is about preventing monopolization, not about preventing monopolies.

I emigrated up to Canada and it certainly is still present here but it isn't nearly as praised. In Vancouver a "starter" home is valued in the millions so wealth inequality is very much present here as well - but there is much more of a social rejection of wealth acquisition through under handed means. Trudeau got into a lot of political trouble over SNC-Lavlin and Doug Ford is currently getting a lot of crap over handouts of park lands to developer buddies. I don't want it to sound like everything is perfect but when people acquire power or wealth through exploitation they actually suffer for it up here instead of it being viewed as a virtue.

Mostly agree, but this part isn't really true:

>But as the majority shareholder it's effectively their company, and they can do what they want with what they own (basic freedoms I think we all agree on?). For example, Elon, as majority shareholder, could simply liquidate Tesla and pocket his share of the sale. It's his company.

Minority shareholder oppression is a thing.

Let's be honest here. What are you getting out of GitHub? My experience has found exactly two cases:

1) It's a toy. There are like two files and and ~100 lines in total. In which case, the repo is meaningless.

2) There's a fuckton of code. In which case, you are absolutely not reading it. You can't. You have no context, nor do you have the time. Reading code is Hard. You absolutely are not going to spend several hours inspecting some rando's code. So what's the point?

You can get the same amount of information from reading the resume and a 30 minute phone screen.

As long as you believe you can acquire customers for some margin less than (you project) they will pay you across their lifetime as a customer, the rational choice to to maximise your money is to spend all the money you have (and more!) on acquiring more customers.

Where do you see high profile televised court cases with pro se litigants? I would love to watch that channel.
They're okay with it because:

1) Originally giving large amount of stock to the C-suite was seen as a way of locking in the motives of executives to enrich the corporation (or at least bump the share price), not just themselves.

2) They stayed okay with it, and even increased the options, because it was now standard practice. And if they didn't okay it they wouldn't get the 'best' executives.

The problem with all of this is that some shareholders are longer-term holders than others. And if executives are jumping ship to get a higher payout every couple of years, then they are only incentivized to boost the share price for those couple of years (or until their options mature). So executive's motivations are only in sync with the best monetary interests of short-term shareholders.

You'd think the shareholders would design compensation policies to encourage long-term executive retention and thus long-term "shareholder value", but this doesn't seem to be the case.
my comparison is between EV batteries and stationary batteries, not a system without batteries (which is in any case unworkable if input is solely based on renewables).

a stationary distributed system seems superior in many ways to the mobile version (more capacity, more predictable in both charging and discharging schedules, potentially less costly battery technologies etc). if such a system happens anyway, I'd see the issue of linking the EV fleet as secondary
