JoeScan | Vacouver, WA | Software Engineer (C++/C#)| ONSITE | https://joescan.com

Are you a wiz with gnarly requirements who chews up bugs and spits out stunningly documented code? We’re on the hunt for a software cowboy with a firmware flare to help our seasoned team wrangle that next batch of gold standard sawmill scanning products to market. You’ll need gumption to pull it off: a knack for self-direction and an aptitude for customer support goes a long way in these parts. You’ll also need to work well with others; there are no lone rangers in this outfit. It’s a tall order, but you’ll be richly rewarded if you can make the grade.

This is an opportunity to make a difference. Sawmills throughout the world will depend on the technology you develop to get the most from our forests.

No. I'm a salaried employee. Marginal time/effort savings do not directly translate into more money for me.

I am also a salaried employee and if I can save a minute of work time that’s one less minute I have to work.

I have a body of work I need to complete and sometimes that takes me 40 hours and sometimes much more.

The only way I can think of that $20 per month for increased productivity doesn’t help is if your company’s metric of success is being present/working 8 hours per day.
Why would it be abuse if you just asked for the data to be deleted? As long as you do not misrepresent things and do so politely, of course.

If Disney wants to spent time and money and reputation to figure out if they legally need to delete the data they collected about you and only do so when that's the case, then that's their choice. Same as it was their choice to collect data in the first place.

If they instead want to be nice and consumer-orientated, as they like their public image to suggest, or at least save some bucks, then they will hit the delete button. They gotta have such button by now anyway for legal requests from Californians.
Do we live in a society without a counterculture?

Yes, because there is no longer a central, shared culture.
Id really like one i can ask if a specific person is dangerous or pretty toxic. KYC on steroid. Fusion wire fraud detection. Picture this: the net "knows". I've lost sleep over this, the potential for humanity is incommensurable. We could literally block management roles to die-hard sociopaths. A world for the kind and nice. Certainly utopic and dystopic.

Also a model i can ask emails of potential customers in a specific field :)
This is a still from a movie set in 1959 (Billy Wilder's excellent /The Apartment/): https://onceuponascreen.files.wordpress.com/2017/08/apt.jpg

Those people are all doing white collar jobs nobody does today: adding up columns of numbers with desktop adding machines, retyping manuscript memos, responding to customer and vendor mail, summarizing other hand-generated reports into newer more digestable reports (which are in turn the input for yet more manual clerical steps), maintaining paper indexes into warehouse-sized file stores, etc.

Each of these people (well, it's a movie, but the real people they represent) had a career, performance reviews, Christmas bonuses, all of it. Now the whole work output of this entire high-rise office building floor (and probably more floors on either side of it) can be replaced with one copy of Excel.

I'm confident we'll come up with all kinds of new data-pushing jobs to hand out, assuming we can contrive to continue living in conditions of energy abundance (like we already were in 1959).
I figured it was to incentivize you to buy a cookbook or recipe catalogue without the ranting.

Cedar | Senior/Staff level Platforms Engineer | Full-time | Remote, Flex, Onsite NYC

Hello HN! At Cedar, our mission is to empower us all to easily and affordably pursue the care we need. We know the healthcare system needs to change, and we want to be part of the solution.

The Platform pillar is tasked with building, delivering, and maintaining the technology platforms that Cedar builds its business on. Currently we are working on migrating our Django monolith to a Service Oriented Architecture, improving developer efficiency, and migrating our infrastructure to a multi-account model (AWS).

Apply here: https://www.cedar.com/careers/?gh_jid=4730612
It must cost some non trivial amount of money to run those queries through the neural networks. Charging a fee doesn't seem that unreasonable. Better would be to open the model so people could run it locally, mind you (though perhaps normal machines aren't capable of running such a massive network).
You can run GitHub workflows locally with act: https://github.com/nektos/act
Still works though (mostly) and still a pretty cool service.
I'm not a biologist and don't have any expertise in the field. But to my untrained eye, this looks more like creating a new species that has apparent traits similar to recorded traits of dodos than it is de-extincting the dodo.

Is that an accurate assessment?
Maybe! They already expense Copilot, so I don't think it would be too out of bounds. I haven't asked yet, considering this just came out today. I'm guessing they will allow it, the marginal ROI calculation actually makes sense from an employer perspective.

I used to use Mumble. I still think decentralized, encrypted chat is great. But there is nothing like Discord for free.

If Mumble could do streaming/video and rich text support, I think people could be peeled off Discord a tad.

But I don't know what you're talking about regarding buggy. Discord runs pretty much perfectly for me, excepting one issue (it was either Discord or Corsair Wave) that was giving fuzzy audio with a particular virtual audio input.

For how complex the server/channel/DM/text chat/"voice channel" text chat schema is, I think it's a pretty impressive product.
So close!

The first thing you should do is set up and test backups!
I'd say its pretending in the sense of comparing a vaporware product you'll never receive or only available for hyperinflated price from scalpers, vs delivered from Amazon Prime on your doorstep tomorrow.

Like comparing a Chevy Volt on the used car lot that I could buy tonight vs a hypothetical Tesla concept car with an anticipated delivery date of 2026. I'm sure the vaporware has better specs but its not "fair" to pretend to compare them.

But, you are in a sense technically correct on a small scale, yes.
You call that a bug, i call it a feature.
Right, and it was phrased with "unfortunately" and as a "dystopia" which I took to mean "it shouldn't be this way." I wasn't trying to refute their point that tradeoffs exist, but rather indicate that's exactly how one should expect the system to operate. (Possible I misread their intent, though.) The idea that someone would expect to 1) land a job they love while 2) making gobs of money and 3) have it generalizable across an oversaturated market like academia seems to indicate a lack of understanding of the incentive structure within the system.
Is that actual results of the prompt? That doesn't seem Tolkien-esque at all.
A lot of people have stopped writing cover letters because they don't seem to have any impact.

> Using drugs or having multiple partners might feel good to you individually, but it has only negative externalities on society at large. That’s pretty much the definition of anti-social.

Using sweeping terminology to dismiss drugs is problematic. Does your definition of anti-social drugs include legal drugs like alcohol and caffeine, partially illegal drugs like marijuana and psilocybin, etc?

In what way is having multiple partners inherently harmful to society? You are stating these things as if they are self-evident truths, but that is far from the case, such sweeping claims need some pretty hefty backing.

> Drug use and polyamory are frowned upon across the Middle East, Asia, and Africa.

The prevalence of a social reflex is not sufficient to justify it (see: racism). Setting aside the overly broad definition of "drug use", why would such a default state about polyamory be inherently correct, both through history and into the future?

One could speculate that such intuitions are primarily about one's personal notion of right and wrong, and for most folks that includes a deep sense of commitment to their partner. For the monogamist, the very idea that their partner could be participating with other partners is incompatible with their value system, and therefore they would never except that in a partner.

And that's perfectly fine.

But there are arguably social configurations that are perfectly compatible with polyamory. As long as all parties involved are on board, I see no further social harm unless you place particularly high value on procreation.

As it often goes with religious arguments, one need not impose those beliefs on others, nor is the existence of people with other belief systems a problem purely on the basis that they are non-conforming.
I find this a bit ironic considering conservative / religious ideology has a pretty long track record of attempting to create uniform societies by stamping out any outlying thought.

That article you posted is rather extensive covering various ways they've been trying to mitigate issues of bias and toxicity, but not sure it's any evidence of bias against conservative / religious based ideology?
I think I was paid like 18K a year when I got my STEM PhD in 2018. So, when you say that PhD students are not as expensive as SWEs, you could be making the understatement of the year. I bet the Mcdonalds workers made more than me.

So...what if we all just "self identify" as gay, black, trans, handicapped, etc. to get maximum diversity points and take advantage of this flawed and fraudulent system? Have you given this any thought?
The whole of the article may be copyrightable, but the actual recipe and ingredients remains uncopyrightable. From you first link:

Zoos are called mausoleums of the living dead for a reason.
Further, another way to look at it is, declarative languages specify output, imperative languages focus on the steps to generate outputs. In imperative code, I'm worrying about how instead of what. In declarative code, I'm worried about what instead of how. As in all things, neither of these statements will be absolutes - there are situations and times where a declarative language user will worry about how the query planner will execute, and there are times where an imperative language user will write very much declarative code.
really interesting
What backend tech do you like to pair HTMX with?
Personal experience: my advisor brings in somewhere between 2-3x my nominal pay as a Ph.D. student just to employ me. In his words, the excess goes into the "university", which I believe is just the org structure/bureaucracy that we at HN love to hate. So, all I want to say is

> was a Ph.D. student who complained about being underpaid, now a professor who sees how expensive they actually are.

They both can be true! You can be paying through the nose just for a middleman fat cat to take a fat cut, leaving the Ph.D. student with very little power to receive an unlivable amount.
> Really? I know people who specifically chose their entire major based on the ratio of women in that major.

I've chosen my high school (CS-profiled) and major without any such consideration and ended up having ~0 contact with female peers through it all 'till now at 26 years old (and it's unlikely to change...)

I'm an aspie so I guess that might've been for the best*... still, maybe something is slightly off with the society in which this can happen. It seems rather absurd.

* Somewhen during middle or maybe even elementary school I figured I'm unable to understand dating and such, so I should just not attempt it / min-max. I didn't know I'm an aspie until maybe 2 months ago (or rather, I figured I probably am, but as it's permanent I didn't bother thinking about it much and researching information about specifics).

It didn't bother me much, except now I've got an annoyingly persistent FOMO. Eh.
Thanks! It's not a tetris clone, may be it can be my selling point :D
Ah ok, I thought you were talking about mini PCs in the same form factor as RPis (very small, credit-card sized). Yeah I have a great no-name mini PC as my primary desktop. But it's still 4x bigger than a RPi I think.
I don't get it, why can't these companies just limit the number of people with credentials for the seat-licensed website?

How to create a general-purpose button:

https://twitter.com/Steve8708/status/1620448506766045191

I feel like this should be a lot simpler than it is.

Specifically, the fact that I have to create a component and rely on JS feels incredibly wrong - perhaps this is a pet peeve and isn't as bad as I am making it out to be.

I hope browser vendors are able to provide a roadmap to how these types of problems can be simplified someday in the future.
Chefs are most definitely hackers, just operating in a different medium.
It's still wrong that I would pay extra for those cards.

I understand that different networks have different fees. But I expect one type of card to cost me the same.

When you go to a store, you pay the same price, regardless of which card you have. What would be your reaction if you were charged more because you're using a specific type of card?

I can't ask my customers to foot the bill, so it's effectively 0.4% I lose.

I am a (applied) mathematician turned software engineer. I have worked at backend services and iOS apps. I have some side projects involving micro controllers and kernel programming. Last job was on a haskell shop, I would like to keep using functional programming at work if possible. Problem domains with lots of data analysis are great as I can use my math background.
Comments intermingled with code help me navigate as I'm trying to accomplish my task.

A simple comment every "paragraph" of code or so helps me narrow down the amount of code I need to mentally parse to get to the part that's actually relevant to what I'm trying to do.

So since we're supposed to be on the same team, explicitly saying "go fuck yourself, load a mental model of the entire codebase to find the part that's relevant to your task, I'm not going to help you" does indeed seem insane and crazy.
ChatGPT’s creator releases tool for detecting AI text, and it stinks
What if I don't want to "self identify"? Can't I just do my job as an individual, instead of a half-South African woman employee? I don't like this, and I don't like that this is becoming the norm; it does way more harm in the long run than good in my view.
Streaming functionality isn’t chat, though. AMD gives you the option to not install streaming functionality when you install their drivers and I’m pretty sure they target gamers too.

It reminds me of the age of Windows bloatware.

Trying to pile all the ingredients on a single piece of bread does not a good sandwich make. On the contrary, it leaves me with an impression that they have to rely on the brand recognition and snowball effect of previous products.

I would probably hold their software in higher regard if it wasn’t just one monolithic multi-tool. They don’t even have to push multiple apps, but could use a modular architecture at the app level with plug-ins to support non-core functionality.
How does it interplay with opening multiple search results in new tabs at once? It's been ages since I've personally visited search results sequentially - I open them in batches.
Why Pentium III? That's nearly 25 years old. You couldn't run Windows 10 on such a processor, let alone a modern browser, and a $200 mobile phone would beat it in benchmarks. Surely you can have a higher floor than that.
Disgusting. A few year back we took the family to DL. I had read that they were going to take our pictures and I thought "not a chance" and prepared for a fight.

But I knew deep down they had me over a barrel. Gonna turn around and say no to the family (after an hour drive and $$$ spent for parking) at the front steps of DL? Paying cash not practical anymore either, was almost $500 for tix!

For whatever reason at the moment we arrived they were not prepared for pix and we walked in unscathed, and without apps. Just like the good 'ol days of... 2010?

Looks like I'll never be going back.
The Sudoku app I currently play is this one: https://f-droid.org/en/packages/org.secuso.privacyfriendlysu... (found by searching Sudoku on F-droid)

My only beef with it is the difficulty. I feel that Hard is easily solvable without guessing but Challenging invariably forces me to resort to guessing at least once. (I believe that's the logic their underlying library uses). How does your app determine the difficulty of the puzzles?
It’s definitely not doing what the prompt asked for.

The generated regex is the same as

I’m currently trying to figure out how to match a word starting with dog without using

\bdog.*

because

would proceed to eat the rest of the line.

So I was thinking I could say

\bdog[^\b]*

But that doesn’t work, it also ends up eating the rest of the line as well.
He's a programmer. They re cheaper than scrooge. They'll write a tool themselves in 6 months rather than spend 10 dollars.

Ride with GPS | Rails Engineer and Mapping Data Engineer | Portland or Remote | Full Time | https://ridewithgps.com/about

We are the world's largest library of bike routes, and we enable cyclists to go on better rides, more often. We have a website and mobile apps that allow riders to discover the best riding in their area, and get turn by turn navigation using either our mobile apps or the bike computer of their choosing.

Come join us in taking Ride with GPS to the next level! We have two openings right now:

- Rails / API engineer: https://ridewithgps.com/careers/backend_engineer

- Mapping Data Engineer: The job posting is not up yet, but this role entails working with mapping technologies, both custom and open source, as well as working with our large store of geo data from riders, in order to extract interesting information about the best places to ride. As an example, we have a very high performance custom heatmap builder and server, written in rust. You can see that here: https://ridewithgps.com/heatmap. As an example of working with existing open source tech, we processed all our rider data and matched it to OSM data, and wrote some customizations to the graphhopper routing project that enable us to route based on popularity of roads. If we had a skunkworks department, this would be it.

Instructions available at https://ridewithgps.com/careers. Send resume + cover letter to careers@ridewithgps.com with an optional brief paragraph about your relationship to cycling or the outdoors. Riding bikes is not required, but we do find it helps!
Exactly, I pay $12 for Grammarly which ChatGPT does way better. Also great for brainstorming ideas and having fun.
Use the playground. Why would you use the chat interface for text generation? It is for questions and answers. Use the model directly on the playground for your purpose, and you won't hit such filters .
I had an MSX1. I couldn't put up with the fact scrolls were not smooth. Also, the general game quality was so bad that made programming basic look great! So in a way I am thankful to MSX to push me into computer science.

But definitely, if you can, stay away from MSX.
If I had to guess I’d say discord attaches to the dayz executable to show the discord overlay in-game and the dayz anti cheat doesn’t like it when processes get attached to the game because that’s how cheats work and doesn’t let you auth into the online game.
Sorry, “not in the business of” does not mean to me that they never do it. I’m aware they sell refurbished. I’d imagine margins are not all that great because it’s not a huge part of their business, there’s a fair amount of labor, and a fair number of new components.

If they were in that line of business and could benefit from economies of scale, they’d likely offer more. As it stands, they’re likely offering a price that allows for them to be a disposal option or make a profit on recycling, but isn’t meant to grow that segment of their business.
It's not just vitamin D, it's a long chain of different reactions. I prefer to run topless always if temps are comfortably above +5 Celsius. Unfortunately, Europe is probably the darkest place on earth at least in winter months, but this is the place where especially light skinned people evolved. Sun exposure without sunlight is of course not very efficient, but it's worth to use those rare moments when it shines.

This feels like a recipe for getting your OpenAI account banned, and probably fairly tbh.

I wonder if the fact that the API may expect user tokens, but this doesn't provide them may be correlated with the bug people are experiencing with getting other peoples completions.
