I don’t know if you’ve used htmx, but it makes one way more productive in building websites that can behave like SPAs without the need for all the junk that one needs to get it going. All you need is html templates and a backend server. No JSX, no client side routing lib, no Node.js, no separate API server, heck coupled with something like Alpine.js you can get very far with little to no JavaScript, too (and it’ll still look and feel snappy). None of all the stuff we’ve been forced to use because of HTML’s incompleteness as hypermedia.

The downside to this boost in productivity is when the need for a mobile app comes along, now you need a non-REST API, too. Then you can take out GraphQL or gRPC or something suited for the task. Your mobile client would most likely be using a different surface of the API even if you had one for web clients, so it’s not like you’re wasting much effort here.

> How much credit do we deserve for who, and where, we end up?

The answer to this is really simple. You may take credit for how much better you have done relative to those who had a similar upbringing and opportunity. That's it.
Yeah, debt free loans and family safety nets go a long way. I think if you work hard and you're smart, then upper middle class is the very best you can hope for, and you're unlikely to get that far.
Hmmm, and why should an artist have to keep track of all and any companies that may be scraping their online portfolio (which any professional or even semi professional artist is expected to have) to opt out, just in case their work has been used.The burden should be on the company profiting from them.
Yes. That was initially my idea for a hackathon. Kinda glad I didn't see it through.
I’ve worked on both platforms for over a decade. Gruber’s conclusions are spot on.
I just noticed they improved the pricing a lot since last time I checked.

Before you had free, 10k a month & $22 a month for 60k, now they added $5 a month for 30k and $22 a month for 100k.

Attribution for free is pointless, as with custom voices in theory it would be hard to detect and enforce anyways.
I see a great use case of it. we can schedule product training sessions on teams and it will generate notes.. all the knowledge will be documented too.
Horizon Worlds is what Meta chose to showcase, so it’s pretty reasonable to draw the conclusion that it’s the best they can do right now.

The screenshots you’re talking about are of Zuckerberg trying to gin up enthusiasm for the product.

The insurmountable most is surrounding a space that doesn’t make any money. Apple may be investing in AR but they didn’t signal that they are betting the company on it

Yeah I think you're definitely right wrt the attitude big studios are taking with their games these days. If they swap to mobile they might pick up a different audience but someone will have to fill the void with quality PC games. If Finnish and Japanese (and small US) studios fill that void I'm totally A-OK with that personally.

> I should quit playing games

Sadly I'm right there with you... life has gotten too busy and most of my old gamer friends have moved on to other games that would require a huge time investment to get up to speed in. Now I just play casual games with IRL friends and my brother, haven't played a PC game in ages. Fingers crossed for Starfield though.

Thanks for this color. I have a ton of thoughts about this. . . A few:

1. The best way I think we can enable patients/consumers to price discriminate is about pushing pricing into the moment when they're making a decision. An example of how to do this is: https://carbonhealth.com/flu/flu-vaccination-centers . .. we created a map, that indexes well, for where to find the lowest cost flu shot (this was done before the price transparency data was available, but I fully intend to a) incorporate the price transparency data for our existing maps and b) create new health maps for basically every service that tells you the relative rate for your plan

2. There's going to be real demand for an API that returns pricing data, for marketplaces that aggregate patients (like Solv, Zocdoc, Sesamecare, healthgrades etc) because pricing is probably the most in-demand decision driver that no one has.

3. Ultimately, I expect Google and Apple to incorporate these prices into maps. Then you'll see it have a real impact on consumer behavior, because most healthcare journeys (whether we like it or not) start with a search.

While I think you should make pricing available for everything (bc after all, there is a price for everything) I think it's most effective to start with diagnostics (mammograms, xrays, STD tests etc) because there's pretty low variance in outcomes (ie it kinda doesn't matter where you get them, you're getting the same thing). When it comes to complex therapeutic searches (eg oncology, chronic care) while pricing is one dimension, patients probably want to see pricing along with a proxy for quality (eg that specialists quality metrics, number of times the MD has done that procedure, etc), bc the healing process for those are not linearly related to price, and the cost of a visit is just a fraction of going down the wrong therapeutic pathway, for both the patient and the system.
> Seeing a government body virtue-signal by putting up a flag is not the same as the actual lives that queer people live

The same thing goes for anything that could be described as "queer culture". Plenty of queer people have, and want, nothing to do with the groups and spaces that present themselves as "the community".
BTW, you can set the orientation of the Dock in Mac OS, but it will be always centered at the edge it's attached to.

(So you can't pin it to a corner like the top left, nor can you force it to extend over the full length of that edge.)

And you can extend the Dock in many ways, by adding folders or stacks, make them behave as menus or grids, ect.

One dollar per day? If it saves you less than 5 minutes...it's paid for.
If you're laying off an entire division, sure, your comment applies. However, from anecdotal experience at Meta, the layoffs seemed entirely random that hit both ICs and Managers. People internally tried to reverse engineer the formula used, but it wasn't always clear why. It also seemed unrelated to several projects getting killed. Those employees were simply asked to change teams if they wanted to stay.

It's weird to me that these companies, all of them, still very much flush with cash, have now engineered this an environment of FUD in everyone's mind. For creativity to thrive and ideas to launch during the next boom, you need an environment of safety. Tech had always been been synonymous with optimism.

The only reason is they wish to be able to control the player - when they discontinue the game's servers, they want the players to not be able to play any more. Obviously, when/if they decide to sell the sequel, the original surely must be stopped from working in order to prevent it as being a competition to sales!

When they decide to sell micro-transactions, they wish to stop players from just cheating it in (even tho it's a single player game).

Do not buy a game like this. It aint worth the money, and there's plenty of indie games that are just as good, if not better.

BindiMaps | REMOTE or ONSITE | Android / Full Stack | Australia | Full-time
BindiMaps is an early-stage, funded startup that aims to make indoor spaces accessible for everyone, with an initial focus on vision impaired and neurodivergent individuals.

Our mobile applications run our localisation algorithms to accurately locate users within large indoor spaces, and then guide them to their destination with friendly turn-by-turn directions.

There's also a set of complex web applications that allow us to set up locations, run simulations to verify and debug algorithm performance, and we have client-facing mapping and reporting applications too.

The backend stack runs on GCP, and the web applications primarily use Typescript, React, Docker, and Node, with a bit of Python and Kotlin for some of the algorithm work.

We are hiring to keep up with our rapid growth, and to make our next big push: a camera-based localisation system capable of sub-meter accuracy, and the AR experiences this technology enables. Our current efforts in this area have delivered great results, so we think it's the right time to grow the team.

We are hiring for Android and web/full stack developer positions[0]. I'm one of the engineers on the team and after a few years I can say it's a great place to work. Competitive salaries, flexibility on where you work (I work remotely but we have offices in Melbourne and Sydney), and a really solid product. There's a very flat org structure, and management trusts the tech team to make the right long-term decisions.

If you'd like to work on a product that provides meaningful social impact as well as real technical challenges, you can apply at [1]. Make sure to mention you're from HN.

> templating makes it far easier to understand

I think this is the key take away.

React is great and offers a lot of tunability in terms of performance but to me it often feels a lot like writing low level code.

When I use something like Vue, Petite-Vue, Svelte, Angular (flawed but underrated) - it feels like using something high level (like an ORM) that is designed to take something difficult and map it to something human readable.

The relationship between my changes in code/state ergonomically translate across to the template and that leads to very maintainable applications.

In reality though, despite the endless stream of blogs telling you how to write React applications, React isn't prescriptive on how you write it. You can create "view models" with proxy objects to implement primitive data-binding in components and use Context to inject dependencies.

In fact I once wrote a compiler that compiled html template syntax into `React.createElement()`, and along with a supplied runtime I was able to use React as a backend for a reactive template renderer.

> Svelte and Vue approach to SFCs

I have personally found SFC to be super annoying given they are not optional and require custom tooling.

A single file is nice sometimes but I don't really mind if a component is split into 3 files (js, css, html) as long as they are associated with each other somehow. I just want to ensure that my view renderer requires the least amount of tooling possible so my project will stand the test of time and I can be self reliant for updates.

Can I use my own test runner? Can I pick my version of TypeScript? Can I setup my own eslint? Can I set up my own css preprocessor? Can I use custom compiler configuration (like using SWC)?

To me, the fact that React doesn't require a compiler (aside from translating jsx) is its greatest asset, and Vue/Svelte and Angular's greatest shortfall.

It's just a shame that React is so fiddly to work with
Huh...I was about to call bullshit on this, but specifically only for the C suite executives.

Then, in contradiction to all known online posting habits of most commenters, I decided to check my assumptions and go to a site that lists all the Fortune 500 companies and check the pictures of Fortune 500 leadership. I know, pretty bizarre, right? Checking to see one is right in their assumptions before inflicting their own opinions on everyone else.

My conclusion - executives, both board of directors and management, were all above average looking. Not one was a supermodel level, of course. But almost all were above average looking. But no way below average super nasty looking snaggle-tooth acne pockmarked people with a lazy eye looking in the opposite direction. No fat people at all. Of course, There were a few slightly below average looking people, but that is not the norm. There was one group of executives at one company that all of them were below average, but that was an anomoly.

So yes, get that plastic surgery. Get good haircuts. Stay in good physical shape.

I remember him (David Mackay) leaving comments here on HN, but I don’t remember the username. I wonder if you can find them somehow.
If you dig sufficiently deeply at it, you can attribute everything to luck. Just keep asking "why" and eventually you arrive at something you did not have conscious control over.

E.g.

Q. Why do you deserve your money?

A. I work hard.

Q. Why do you work hard?

A. I have a good work ethic.

Q. Why do you have a good work ethic?

A. My parents raised me that way.

Q. Why did you choose for your parents to raise you that way?

A. I didn't.

I'm not suggesting any conclusions here, just stating that if you keeping asking "why", you will always get to ground at something outside your conscious control.

Applying this to my own life, I make good money doing software development. Programming is easy and natural for me. I started programming when I was 12. Why? I thought it was fun. Why did I choose to think it was fun? I didn't consciously choose.

This applies even for things that seem to arise within your own mind. You can't choose which thoughts to have. You might think "sure I can, I'm going to think about elephants right now", and that may be, but when did you choose to choose to think about elephants? When did you choose to choose to choose? You can recurse deep, but eventually you arrive at something outside your conscious control.
