I have two:

https://SherlockDNA.com runs a lot of reports for genetic genealogists. It's boring a boring Rails-based app with Stimulus and Hotwire. This is plopped on a cheap $20 node from Hetzner. I use Hatchbox.io for deployment and love it. For the two, $30/month.

https://ranchoelcharro.com is a horse ranch in Mexico that rescued during COVID. The site itself lives on SquareSpace so non-technical people can edit. Behind the scenes I built out our own booking/reservation platform after being woefully dissatisfied with commercial options. It, too, is another boring Rails-based app with Stimulus and Hotwire (yes, even the widget that handles the booking is boring). Site lives on Heroku because I was too lazy to do anything else at the time, and it's fine there for now. It handles a half-dozen integrations with tour agencies, all back-office stuff, and more. It's about $50/month for everything to make it hum on Heroku which is great because I don't have to worry about it — my employees lives and their families lives depend on them getting reservations, so I want to make sure that it's as me-no-play-sysadmin as possible. SquareSpace, while annoying for a web developer like myself, is fine and runs us $33/month. All together, our tech spend is about $120/month — HelpScout for emails/tickets, emails sent with Postmark.

they're already required to clearly display the total interest over the full loan term on the contract you sign. there's no hiding the fact that 25% APR with a 72 month term means paying ~100% of the principal again in interest. I honestly don't see how it could be made more clear that this is a terrible financial decision. it's like it just doesn't occur to people that they might have to pay for things other than a car note sometime in the next six years.
Ask HN: How to build scalable, real-time OLAP for dynamic data analysis in 2023?
What are some effective ways today to implement a dynamic OLAP (Online Analytical Processing) system that supports multiple users to connect their own databases and provide real-time data analysis capabilities?

requirements:

+ There are multiple users, each user has their own data/databases.

+ Users may dynamic query their own data (like aggregation, filter) at same time.

I am looking for suggestions on technologies, tools, and best practices for building a scalable and efficient solution that can handle dynamic and large scale data. Any insights would be greatly appreciated.
Any other external filter lists that are useful?

The Fed is fine. Its limits are inflation and unemployment. The latter is proving incredibly forgiving right now. A single-mandate central bank would be tempted to plunge the economy into recession right now to cure the inflation.

Inflation is a highly politicized topic. The means of calculating it is frequently under revision.

The US federal government is massively in debt in $USD terms, so inflation is good for them. On the flip side, they need to convince the world that inflation is under control or they may lose the status of being the world's reserve currency issuer. How can you accomplish both goals? Continue to debase the currency while you fudge the numbers.

In the sample code, there is no "streaming" going on -- the server simply uses the client code as a template to generate HTML and sends it as a normal HTTP response. In pseudocode:

import "client.js" as client
on request:
document = new ServerDOM(),
client.render(document, data),
respond with document.toHtmlString()

> I don't understand why it isn't "true" SSR
This article seems to be using the term SSR exclusively in the frontend framework sense, where client code is run on the server. It's not how I use the term but it is a common usage.

But not seeing my family is not worth any amount of money to me, since there are other jobs for a lot less that let me see my family and live plenty comfortably.
Maybe not the best place to ask but I recently visited the Ghibli Museum (which was awesome highly recommend). In one of the rooms set up as a workspace exhibition there where drawings and notes displayed on the wall. Some of these contained handwritten Russian notes. As well as a hand drawn map of medieval Moscow. There where some other things like a drawing of ship which looked inspired by Battleship Potemkin. I assume these where used as references for some of their movies. Does anyone know if Miyazaki or any of the other animators could read and write Russian? I couldn't find any information online apart from Miyazaki being inspired by The Snow Queen (Snezhnaya Koroleva) (1957).
I wonder how much of this debt is rotating debt that’s paid off every month?

I buy almost everything on credit/store cards - because with 1-5% back it seems stupid not to* - but I pay them all off every month.

I would argue this kind of ‘monthly’ debt should is not _really_ debt that should be counted in overall stats.

I suspect many ‘middle class’ people do the same. I’m not sure it’s enough to skew the overall number by orders of magnitude - but it surely is at least a measurable amount.

*It is manifestly unfair that richer folks who can get good credit cards end up paying less for everything than poorer folks who can’t, but that’s a different conversation…
There are those white collar who realize that along the line, those that brace company propaganda and turn carrierist and those that stay naive to be abused by the second group.

There is a reason I get along better with blue collar folks than, especially the more inexperienced, white collar ones. Usually, blue collar folks have less problems following "orders" as well. This professional discipline makes a lot of things a lot easier.

This is how ExpressionEngine is structured as well, except they're called channels and templates. I really enjoyed working with EE, although coding is definitely required - you basically have to build your site from the ground up. No themes included.

Point certainly taken but I think that "rendering" is the overloaded term.

It's not useless at all. There are countries where the average workers earn 5 times less (even PPP adjusted) than our minimum wage and they don't rack up vast amounts of credit card debt, car loans, etc.

We first need to start changing our values to be more financially conservative. Once that happens and voters start making these values apparent to politicians, they can take actions that will help reduce costs for citizens.
I'm not at all disparaging accountants here but I don't see any reason why they would have superior budgeting capabilities. Accountants are generally in charge of recording the accounts and not actually setting and spending the budget no?

The people accumulating large credit debt have very little overlap with homeowners. The reason for this is very simple. The vast majority of homeowners purchased their house before 2021, and therefore are sitting on gigantic amounts of home equity. They have access to HELOC at much more favorable interest rates than credit card debt. (And no, we've seen barely any increase in HELOCs[1]).

In addition the average recent homebuyer has a FICO score of 768[2]. These are not the type of people who are running up credit card debt and living beyond their means. So while credit card delinquencies may go up, it's primarily concentrated among the poor, the young and renters whose budgets are squeezed by rising lease costs. In this group there are barely any homes to foreclose on.

Ask HN: Compilation Times Poll
I'm curious what kind of compilation times everyone is currently dealing with.

Mainly I'd like to see:

- Incremental build time

- Local or remote builds

- Tests / CI time (And is it in the critical path of making commits or asynchronous?)

(Guesses are fine, I mainly want to see rough order-of-magnitude estimates)

Thanks!
Ah thanks! Fixing now.

They were quite explicit that management, traders and quants take the initial passes at the bonus pool and not to expect much out of it. 100% seemed to be the max not the minimum.

That was a poor edit on my part. My apologies.

I actually like Reddit and HN in general. On Reddit, I like the comment threads where they trash politicians with escalating levels of absurdity, and the creative writing exercises disguised as AITA and TIFU.

As for HN, I think it's fine. It really hasn't gotten worse over the years (people were saying that in 2010 too). Moderation here is excellent, and people mostly behave themselves. But, you do have to stay away from certain subject areas. If you see "it's a lab leak for sure!!!" with 2000 comments, I recommend bypassing that. Lot of people very mad at each other. Anything technical, though, lots of good discussions, even on popular topics, and I often learn something. The intersection of technical and social is mixed, but generally you don't feel terrible after reading them.

HN does feel like it skews younger than it used to. Probably because I am now older than when I first started using the site. I read a lot of things where I think "you'll figure it out in a few years" more and more, but know that you can only explain so much. Lessons have to be learned firsthand, HN's average reader has many good life lessons to learn. So do I, of course!

Whatever Happened to Light Verse?

> But the fact is, Android has plenty of market share.

The point you're missing is that not all market share is created equal in terms of revenue potential. There could be absolute billions of users on Android but it doesn't really matter if they're unwilling to pay for anything. And that's largely been the case--it's well documented at this point that iOS users are vastly more willing to spend money on apps by practically a 2:1 margin, and generally have a higher net-worth that advertisers like to target. [1]

So since this is inherently about the ROI, it frankly doesn't even matter if Android users do care about the user experience as much as iOS users do. Objectively Meta (or any company) is not going to throw investment at a platform that doesn't pay it back at a rate competitive with iOS. Like this just makes sense. Sure, you could maybe goose ROI on Android with some better investment, but if you'd make more back applying those same resources to your iOS team then it's a pretty open and shut case, right?

And so that's how we end up in a place where users have to choose what matters to them. And on balance Android has a lot of other things going for it that might be more important for a lot of people. But to me general app quality does make sense as part of the explanation for iOS market share increasing during a time of free-flowing stimulus checks, as you pointed out. If you have some extra money to splurge, it might make a lot of sense to buy that more expensive iPhone that delivers a better app experience. These things can move the needle--that's the competitive advantage I'm talking about.

For me at least, it's certainly an important part of the calculus.

I absolutely get this argument and this is also what I got from the Mozilla docs. For me the decision for user safety moved too far away from user freedom. I get that this is a tradeoff, I am not happy with the outcome personally. I have no perfect solution to this problem either, I just find the current state runs counter to what I personally would expect.

I see a sliding scale from Apple walled garden to Windows XP wild west. I think I am more on the XP side than the Apple side, so my view likely clashes with what Mozilla has in mind.
Not a good look to strawman things like this when you have sibling comments elsewhere in this thread saying the discussion needs more nuance.

I actually did napkin math awhile back comparing a particular 16th century indigenous agricultural yields with 20th century American agriculture [0]. The indigenous system came out favorably until the second half of the 20th century despite the limitations of hand tools and natural fertilizer. There's still a gap between that and current yields, but I think it's fair to point out that most advocates of these systems are actually arguing for a synthesis with modern technologies that allow them to scale rather than a complete rejection of modernity.
