World GDP by 2035 is $200 Trillion

People will spend at least 4 hours or 25% of their waking hours in Metaverse (It'll be more, but I'm being conservative), at least $20 Trillion of human activity will occur in Metaverse (because bits are cheaper than atoms)
From the data (the analysis was posted a few days ago on HN), it appears FANGS have been targeting employees with a long tenure in their layoffs. These are generally more expensive and from a management helicopter view don't appear to be value for money.

This is so true, when people were begging to be promoted because they wanted more money I would have "the talk" with them which was basically,

"Look, if you get a raise and no promotion, expectations will be the same next year as they are this year, so all good. If you get a promotion then expectations for next year, AND EVERY YEAR AFTER NEXT YEAR, are going to be higher. If you've got that in you, okay then but there isn't a 'ya know, I'd rather not be this senior' button, the only way to cut those expectation cords is to leave."

Scott McNealy would tell people on promotion, "One step up, one step closer to the door." which captured this same thought.

But all of that is peanuts compared to the next step, which is that now, assuming they still want to work at a company, they have to go out and interview and set their salary expectations to something that someone is willing to hire them at. This seems especially hard for the senior folks I've interviewed coming from Google because so much of their expertise is on systems that only exist inside of Google.
Bingo.

And this isn't some untouchable problem either: better signage and markings, better separation (I still wince driving past where I fell because people are riding just a couple of feet away from tracks that will injure them), rubber strips that trains can go over while preventing the tracks from swallowing wheels things like bikes and wheelchairs.

This honestly speaks to that problem with the attitude of most of the people who have been here for a while: they just seemed to accept that this awful problem exists, but it's almost treated like a rite of passage. In other cities I feel like there'd be real widespread outrage at the whole situation and something more would happen, yet it's absolutely effortless to find hundreds of cases per year where people are seriously injured and in some cases even killed.
On a side note, try to keep eating figs in dried form at a moderate amount or avoid altogether if the source is "not reputable".

Dried figs are very susceptible to Aflatoxin B1(1) which is a very potent carcinogen from fungi. US food safety regulations allow 2-10 times more aflatoxin B1 in food compared to EU.

During my work, I had a chance to visit dried fig producers and saw even a couple of contaminated figs spreading to the rest of the stock like wildfire.

What you can do is to check your dried figs under UV light, and it should not shine. Here's an example image(2) I found.

Source: I have worked in the company as a machine vision engineer to develop aflatoxin detection systems with UV light.

> I assure you, it's totally a conspiracy to distract you from police brutality

Not sure if this is intended to be sarcasm, but it's like the adage goes -- just because you're paranoid doesn't mean they're not after you. I don't know if it's a conspiracy or just an emergent status quo, but the media do constantly provide puff pieces for the police.

Old ladies crossing the icy street in the winter, ducklings in the spring, kids and swimming pools in the summer and Halloween/Thanksgiving in the fall. Regardless the season they'll find some way to spin the cops in a positive light.

One of the things that make me jealous of programmers who use Lisps in their day to day, is how powerful code navigation and editing becomes.

Programming is, as everyone here knows, a thinking discipline first...

But when you do formulate a thought, you want the typing, navigation and editing to be as fluent, fast and expressive as possible.

You want to extract and move sub expressions without friction. You want to jump around the code and “zoom” in and out of contexts. And of course evaluate every sub expression in isolation.

All of this stuff is just much harder or limited without something like S-expressions.

INT. MONK'S CAFE - DAY

Jerry, George, and Elaine are sitting at a table. Kramer enters and sits down.

Kramer: Hey, guys.

Jerry: Hey, what's up, Kramer?

Kramer: I've been having some trouble with this new Microsoft Teams thing at work. I need to use it for a video conference but I don't know how.

George: (sarcastically) Oh no, not Microsoft Teams. That's the end of the world.

Elaine: (laughing) Come on, George. It's not that bad.

Jerry: Yeah, it's not rocket science, Kramer. Just click on the icon, join the meeting, and turn on your webcam.

Kramer: (frustrated) I've tried that, Jerry. But then all these different tabs and options pop up and I don't know what to do.

Elaine: (sympathetically) It can be overwhelming at first. But just take it one step at a time and you'll figure it out.

Kramer: (sighing) I guess you're right.

Jerry: (joking) And if all else fails, just hold up a piece of paper with your face on it to the webcam.

(audience laughs)

George: (serious) Actually, that's not a bad idea.

(audience laughs)

Kramer: (smiling) Thanks for the advice, guys. I'll give it another try.

(Kramer exits the cafe)

Jerry: (to George and Elaine) I think Kramer is going to have a tough time with Microsoft Teams.

Elaine: (laughing) Oh, I have no doubt.

Software engineer with 10+ years of experience seeking remote IT opportunities. My last role was as a software engineer for a vacation rental metasearch engine where I led big infrastructure changes and an anti-crawling project. Prefer backend, but also open to frontend (Vue/Angular).
I met Ben Lamm through a mutual friend when he came and sat down for dinner next to us and we ended up joining tables together. At the time the big news was his mammoth de-extinction project. He said that his business model was to essentially set up zoo exhibits and charge people to go see the mammoths. He also said that given how long the elephant gestation period is that it would take a while for the mammoth project to get going so they were looking at other de-extinctions they could do. I guess the dodo was one.

The zoo idea didn't seem to stack up to me and my friends so our consensus was his idea was to generate hype and exit, possibly licensing some of the tech developed along the way.
> My take is some people have an extreme distrust of the US government

My take is that a lot of people learned to stimulate that for their own personal gain.
Here in Australia we have more sheep than many.

Lamb is meat from a young sheep - raised to be eaten young.

Mutton is meat from an older sheep, generally from sheep no longer good for wool production, too old to bear lambs, etc.

Mutton is a relative rarity outside the farm gate in shops and city butchers .. in an economic sense as soon as a sheep is big enough and well fed enough to be sold on to super market chains, why invest further time in that animal?

Unless, of course, wool production and| lamb production (ie. older ewes and some rams).
Let's not forget Mimolette... we were staying in Paris, hungry; I hit up a local bodega (or whatever all-night store is in French) and bought a package of what looked to me like nice aged Cheddar.

Back in the hotel, we are pigging out on this delicious french cheese when my son (14 yrs old, knows everything) mentions that the cheese we are enjoying almost surely was infested with live mites.

Hilarity ensued

> i highly doubt an IC could make something like this happen without approval from somebody. It would be a huge risk.

I'd bet at least beer money that this was some "IC" career 747 guy (or bunch of guys) who organised, planned, and authorised this without actual authority, because he was "a 747 guy" and he tendered his retirement 3 months ago and today was his last day. And a delivery pilot who was either in on it or was prepared to claim plausible deniability and that he was just following the autopilots pre-planned route, which he assumed was fully authorised.

What's the huge risk? They're gonna fire him???
It’s not a “very different model”, it’s still heavily based on davinci (aka GPT 3.5)
To be honest, cats can do quite a lot of damage and landlords have no idea of knowing what the likelihood of that is. And once a cat starts peeing in your house, that smell is almost impossible to get rid of, so I can see an owner being well motivated to guard against it. I actually live in a place right now where pets of any kind are not allowed.
With rust you have to specify type, usually a container/reference type, and annotate lifetimes of everything you pass around. You literally do none of that in Python. You don't even declare variables. They are totally on the opposite ends of 'strictness'.
I love you. Thank you for this.

This is assuming anyone you might want to add to the no-fly list is not already a US citizen.
Can you explain the part about being a citizen if you have ancestors after 1904? What other criteria are there?

From some quick searching I don’t see this mentioned explicitly anywhere. Is the argument that your great grandparent’s (immigrant from Germany in let’s say 1901) children, per the current naturalization rules, were a citizen, and thus your grandparent, thus parent, and thus you? Since the citizenship requirements don’t mention it, is this something that would actually hold up?
http://rolepad.com

Project description: Whenever I've applied for jobs, I found myself with a mess of emails and spreadsheets. It sort of worked, but also felt like it could have been better. The initial goal of Rolepad is helping job seekers manage their search process. Think an Applicant Tracking System but for the other side. You can also visualize your progress with a Sankey diagram and share it anonymously. Getting started is easy - account is created automatically with your first login.

How to test: use this as if you were looking for a job (bonus points if you are!) - would love to hear what you find useful, what's painful, what's missing. Try the diagram sharing functionality (maybe share the public link in a comment here!). Should be usable both from desktop and mobile.

Contact info: there is an in-app feedback page. If you really need email, you can find it on the homepage.

Love this idea BTW. I'd like to do a Show HN once v1 is ready, but happy to have folks get value from it already!
The point is why people have more trouble parsing (+ 2 3) than they have parsing (2 + 3).

I agree with you (contra GP) that path dependency is a fine reason to prefer infix. Continuing with what we're used to is very often the preferable choice where the costs of switching are high and the benefits unclear.

I actually think that infix notation has some advantages, especially for associative operations {e.g. if (G, +) is a group and a, b, c \in G, it's much more natural to write a + b + c than to choose between the equivalent (+ (+ a b) c) and (+ a (+ b c))}.

But undeniably S-expressions are superior from a teaching point of view as they don't hide the "true" structure.

Even though I don't dislike infix at all, it's hard to argue the reason most people prefer it isn't that they're just used to it.

Project description:

I've been working on a Bootstrap 5 landing page builder for almost 1 year now (mostly just weekends though).

The main USP of this builder is it's targeted more for developers and people who know what Bootstrap 5 is than just another website builder. Apart from the drag-n-drop builder, It has many ways to create websites and landing pages including a step by step wizard that generates a landing page after you answer a few simple questions, a GPT3 a.i. filler, etc.

Testing info:

If anyone has 5 minutes to spare and want to play with it I would really appreciate your good honest feedback about the builder and everything. No signup or cc is needed for trying by the way.

But sometimes you need to step back and ask why you need that PR in the first place, and if perhaps there are better avenues to recover your standing rather than staging PR-worthy displays. At some point the PR becomes completely disingenuous and starts actively harming you.
