If you are out of shape, do one set of pushups once a day (however many feels comfortable even if you have to cheat a bit). Start small, even just a couple, and gradually increase the reps over time. You will be blown away by the results after even 2-3 months.

Probably works best if you are scrawny to start with but I imagine any out of shape person would benefit.

Given it takes less than 1min per day, everyone has time for something like this.

> Rails dev for 7 years now but I just don't see it winning over TypeScript/nodejs frameworks

I think you're comparing a language/runtime with a framework here. I also prefer Node and JavaScript over Ruby but I get what you say, and I agree.

I think Adonisjs ticks all the boxes to be that framework in the future. It just doesn't have the community it needs to be 100% successful yet... with more adoption it will get all the missing features, documentation and little annoyances it might have today polished.

But something I'm worried about is if that the fragmentation is just too big at this point. I don't see people agreeing on a single "full stack" framework as it happened in other environments.

I think this happens because most other "big frameworks" were born when there were not that much competition and not that many people on their ecosystems, so there were a lot fewer options and people concentrated around those frameworks and made them grow to what they are today (Laravel, Rails, Django, Spring...).

The "backend JavaScript" ecosystem is a freaking mess. So many competing options, all of them terribly incomplete, all of them claiming to be "full stack" just because they can execute JavaScript on the server... yes, maybe "full stack" but without the battery... it's a lamborghini that you have to put together yourself before being able to use it.

Not sure about U.S. SMBs but Amazon's influence on China small business is a rounding number. Only a relatively small number of vendors sell items on Amazon. They made good money but the good days is almost over given recent quality/piracy crackdowns.

Taobao (under Alibaba) has 100 times more influence on how small business in China conduct business. I know small store owners whose business were wiped out by the rise of Taobao. Amazon? They've never heard of it.
Similar to VM emulation, the problems with electronic or Turing simulation of chemical and biological processes are many. Simulating a sea of neurons or organelles doesn't tend to scale well without using actual organic processes.

I think this understanding is incorrect. My understanding is that housing services, mental health services, medical services, transportation infrastructure, and related things like maternity and paternity leave, good labor rights, good pay and fair working conditions all lead to a reduction in low level crime and homelessness. There is no need for a single silver bullet if we have a collection of policies that work. To just pick one issue here is a nice article about housing:

I feel like there's a gap in the hobbiest motor market.

On the one hand there are stepper motors which can withstand lots of radial load thanks to steel shafts and bearings. They also provide some relative position control and no absolute position feedback (at hobbiest prices).

On the other there are servos, which typically have weak components. Plastic gears, shafts and bushings which cannot withstand radial load. But they do allow control of absolute position.

For many robotics projects, a hobbiest has to choose between servos which are physically weak, or steppers which can tear the project apart if they don't home correctly. And of course the hobbiest has to roll their own safety/endstop system every time.

I'd love something physically like a Nema 14/17 stepper but with a servo interface. However I can't find them anywhere at hobbiest prices. Why are there thousands of good value steppers and thousands of models of servos, but nothing in between, I wonder?
The similar thought I had yesterday was that ChatGPT is pretty good at generating sample code that doesn't otherwise exist. It can be really useful if you treat it like that.

Of course I've also had it call functions and use constants which don't exist, and fail to correct itself even after repeated prompting. So even that only goes so far.

This is how you should think about it: Spec > Language > Code.

Code is an instance of Language (and in structural typing land it can be compatible with multiple languages). Language is an instance (implementation) of Spec.

> sine it descries features and syntax which does not exist in vanilla JavaScript

That's exactly why TS spec is a subset. Take example from the article:

type B = true extends boolean ? 1 : 0; // 1

Type B is a subset of boolean, meaning there are less objects in the world that satisfy type B.

There are less language implementations in the world that satisfy TS spec than JS spec. Every language that satisfies TS spec also satisfies JS spec. TS spec adds more constraints (requirements) to language implementation compared to JS spec, it is more strict, therefore it's a subset.

At first you say:
“No one reads resumes”

Then follow up with the age-old advice:

Your resume should talk about results. Don't say "Created a new CMS for the company". Say "Created a new CMS for the company in Python that resulted in an ~70% reduction in website update times, from 1 hour to 18 minutes."

My take: I’m actually not convinced anyone cares too much about those numbers in a resume. Great topics to probe in an interview, but not much of a signal on a resume. Reason being: they’re easy to fluff and are almost always inflated bs.

I do agree with all of your other points

It's just a natural side effect of software and hardware forming a symbiosis and that they cannot really be separated. New software is (or should be!) built to run well on existing hardware, and new hardware is built to run existing software well. Besides, subroutine call instructions were a thing long before C became mainstream and manual assembly coding ruled supreme.
I find this useful in unit tests where I often find myself duplicating blocks of assertions multiple times. The {block} helps to prevent accidentally reusing variables which are defined by previous blocks of assertions.

I rarely use a free-standing {block} in actual code. I think it's because if something is worthy enough to be logically grouped into a {block}, then it is probably worthwhile to pull it out into its own function, method or lambda expression.
My experience micro optimizing things is that even without SIMD, most software can get at least a 5x in performance. With SIMD, you can often get 50x improvements.

The reason why people thing "Even if you do, you are only going to get a few percentage points." is because it generally takes 5-50x the developer time to optimize such code. If it takes half a day to write naive code to do something like validate utf8, it probably takes ~25 workdays to make a fast SIMD version. If you instead spend an extra half a day, there is a good chance you get a 10-50% speedup using normal code.

I have been spectacularly unable to get any business people to learn SQL.

I even find that very few will bother with reporting tools (eg Tableau) for simple self-service.

Aqua had a lot of aesthetic positives. 3D skeuomorphism blends more easily with the real world compared to flat UIs, which lack presence and make computing feel less tangible and more disposable.

You could easily manipulate the scroll bars in Aqua, which is a useful feature that has been lost in recent updates.

And it was just plain fun and relatable, while flat UIs are more corporate and functional.

Flat reminds me of 1950s/mid century corporate design - inoffensive, but claustrophobic.
I love TCMC, its my favorite story, but I enjoy reading the abridged version more. I find that every time I read the unabridged I end up feeling like it was slightly too long.

Personally, I don't put too much emphasis on these numbers because most of them are probably BS. Don't get me wrong, it's still probably in a candidate's best interest to quantify their accomplishments since it's recommended everywhere but don't over do it.

There seems to be no UI for it in the official mastodon code, but yes it's just one database lookup away (or a list of database lookups).

I mean it's a common thing to not have end-to-end encryption. Gmail, Instagram, Discord, all can read DMs of logged in users.

Something being open source doesn't mean it's end to end encrypted.

Only some messengers have end to end encryption, like WhatsApp, Threema, Signal, etc. There are plans for mastodon to get E2EE as well, there is some backend work done but it seems to not be used in the mobile apps yet.

The more I think about this, the more I believe you to be incorrect! Identifying the correct item in the bin is hard - things are in random arrangements and orientations. They may be buried under other stuff. Packaging continually changes. Things will be in the wrong bin. Things will be packaged by the manufacturer incorrectly! Things expire but you can't rely on expiration dates, which you'd have to be able to read and parse in the first place. Anything in the bin could be extremely fragile. Some things are both fragile and heavy.

The act of picking stuff up is hard. Grip too hard, you break it. Grip too soft, you drop it and break it or something else. Grip it the wrong way, you break it. Crush stuff around it rummaging, you break that. Some things must be pinched, others grasped, cradled or supported at multiple points. You break something, then what? You've contaminated who knows what around it roomba style - you can't send stuff out to customers thats covered in shards of glass or unknown liquids.

How do you identify when something is broken or defective in the first place? Packaging may be damaged while the item is OK, or the item may be broken while the packaging is intact. Humans can do this because they have a model of the world with interactive feedback. Things with broken glass may sound wrong or just feel wrong when moved.

The stakes are lower on average, but putting the wrong item in a cart will eventually kill someone. Consider allergies, medical supplies, the blind or illiterate. All the while, you have to do this for less than $15/hour? I can only see robots currently succeeding for hyper specific items - perhaps those that are low value and heavy for instance.

I still haven't figured out what the difference is between 'clothes' and 'clothing'. I know there is one, and the words each work in specific contexts ('I put on my clothes' works vs 'I put on my clothing' does not), but I have no idea how to define the difference. Please don't look it up but if you have any thoughts on the matter I welcome them.

Ask HN: Save, Public Password Vaults?
I once got downvoted a lot by stating, that i have put my password vault in my public dotfiles repository.

What I should have told too, was that there is also a token file in place, that needs to get decrypted whenever I clone the repo to new a maschine. The file is encrypted in a way what no, eg. PGPs HMAC, makes the failure of decryption transparent. So there is no possibility to brute force.

To crack the entire thing, an attacks need to correctly guess my token password, which is not distinguishable from a failure. And once the attack got the correct one, crack the vaults password. But this stage is practically impossible to reach.

In public is my vault and the encrypted token file.

What I need to access my identities is the vault, the decrypted token, which has to be private at all costs and of course my password.

Should I be concerned? Should I add something or kill it instantly?

Its quite convinient, not tied to a provider and hopefully save. Yes, its also a big basket of eggs.

Are you me? I recently had 194 LDL-C. I panicked and switched to a plant based diet. About 10 days in I paid for another lab test -- my LDL-C dropped 60 points in 10 days. I've returned to eating some lean meat, but I've learned my lesson about saturated fat.

8 grams is very low. Do you count everything? Do you count nuts? Do you count oatmeal? Do you count potatoes? I was aiming for 5g of saturated fat while only tracking high fat items, but once I logged everything using a diet app I found I got a lot of saturated fat from things like oatmeal. When I really track everything 13g is my current limit, and it's much more reasonable and matches the ADA recommendations.

There is a larger point that I am trying to make here, but I haven't found a way to convey it as an efficient marketing message: these 5€/month can do a lot more than leaving you "pretty happy with your current instance".

The same 5€/month that you are spending on the instance you are on could be helping you and 9 other people. Network effects matter. If you can bring 9 other people, you'd accelerating the rate of adoption of social networks based on open platforms. The people you will be bringing will have someone that can help them with the initial questions. They will be less likely to give up on it because they already have some kind of support network. If they really like what they find and if they find themselves willing to support it and get their own contract, they will find "it's $10/year for a single account or $5/month for 10-account contracts" more affordable/more straightforward than "pay whatever you want, but the social pressure is to pay 5€/month just for yourself".

I totally understand that if you already on an instance that you are happy, you already have some form of emotional attachment to it. But perhaps consider that your 5€/month could have an even bigger if employed on a commercial instance.
