Trading is mostly a zero-sum game so people are going to be selective about sharing useful ideas. For investment the horizons are so long it's hard to know which people are worth paying attention to. Maybe some people try to influence sentiment on reddit but in general most successful financial professionals don't spend their time posting on message boards.

Anyway, I don't think it's realistic to become good at trading/investment while working in a different profession. Be prepared to drop everything and focus on it full time (after a few years of preliminary study) if you're really serious. The learning curve is a lot worse than tech, and it's not just because there are no tutorials to learn from. The level of competition is completely different.
This would be great. It looks like at the top end there might be a third stone. So square, triangle, circle. And where they go on the board marked with the same shape would be very intuitive even with no color at all.
While the potential benefits of language models like ChatGPT are vast, it's crucial that we also consider the potential implications on data privacy and take steps to address them as required.
I stopped posting to or reading slashdot twenty years ago in part because the comments were so lousy.
Dr. David Allick, a dentist in Rockville, was diagnosed with mild sleep apnea in June 2022. Months later, he received a letter from the MVA requesting additional information about his diagnosis in order "to determine your fitness to drive." The September 2022 letter noted failure to return the required forms, which included a report from his physician, could result in the suspension of his license.

The moment that Dr Allick learned that his medical records were forwarded to the state was when he received the letter threatening to revoke his driving privileges.

Objectively, it's a fairly creep reach into his medical privacy.
They stay quiet out of politeness and not wanting to be harassed and bullied for dissenting views on this topic.

But I can guarantee that at least some of your female students are scoffing at the misogynistic idea that "woman = lipstick and dress and she/her pronouns".
> Regardless of whether you think the Russians were hopelessly naive or full of shit, it is a promise broken.

Nope. It's a PR meme created for 2007 Munich Security Conference where Putin made his famous speech and needes justifications for imperialistic ambitions. Stunning economic growth before 2008 crisis allowed him to build up an army, and there he declared his vision. Nobody talked about such assurance before ca 2006-2007, and the 1997 founding act on mutual relations between NATO and Russia excplicitly says that signatories must "respect for sovereignty, independence and territorial integrity of all states and their inherent right to choose the means to ensure their own security, the inviolability of borders and peoples' right of self-determination as enshrined in the Helsinki Final Act and other OSCE documents"[1].

Even if we accept the premise that such assurance was given (which Gorbachev denied), then it was given to the USSR, which does not exist anymore. Former parts of that USSR themselves applied for NATO membership. Should their status be bound forever to a non-existing state?

Furthermore, this approach is based on disgusting colonial attitude that Russians are a some kind of master race that has the right to decide over everyone else, while ethnically they made up barely half of the population of the USSR. What about the other half? Do they not have the right to determine their future? Are they forever slaves of the ghost of the USSR?

C# also allows you to use blazor, eliminating the need for js/multiple languages to write a web app.

I personally find that a much more fun way to program.
Write some C for your own pleasure and fun on an undead platform, like AmigaOS.

Due to the constrained nature of the undead platform there is no real possibility of decision fatigue, since the ways of solving a problem are few.
But that's also not how copyright works. At least in the Unites States, the protections offered by copyright center around reproduction, performance, and derivative works[1].

If the AI models are reproducing copyrighted works, then that's a problem. And it does look like there are some examples where that might be happening beyond notions of fair use. But slupring up copyrighted content to train a model seems to fall under allowed use.

Apache Doris – A Glimpse of the Next-Generation Analytical Database
In 2022, Apache Doris has became one of the most active open-sourced big data analysis engine projects in the world while the Doris community became one of the most active open-source communities in China, which you may get interested in. Moreover, the cutting-edge features, such as vectorized execution engine, cloud-native and efficient semi-structured data analysis, real-time processing and Lakehouse will be the focus of my lecture today. Also, it is important to prioritize tasks at the beginning of the year, so I will go through our job list with you shortly.
This is a lump of fetid garbage.

I looked myself up. It listed a bunch of facts about me: # of papers and citations, fields of research, names of students and “advisers”.

Except every one of these facts was hilariously wrong. I recognized the names—they were all coauthors on some paper. Obviously they use cornpooters to decide what are my relationships to these coauthors, and present the false output of their program as if it were fact.

Don’t use this junk. Unless your goal is to be ludicrously misinformed.
This is great advice.

It's fascinating how far you can get without adding things most people consider "essential".

If you just work backwards from goals and do scalability based on real numbers, you'll often get away with less than you think.
their free tier looks like it has a "pay as you go" option once you exceed it that's identical to the paid option per 1K searches and 1K documents. You are basically paying for priority support, pretty common strategy and seems fair to me.

just noticed you don't get high availability on free tier which sucks, but I guess if search is mission critical to the point you need it, you would be willing to pay. Most of these database type companies start off targeting enterprise and then roll out self-serve solutions as they scale.

The premier cross-platform UI toolkits today are definitely:

- QT in C++

- Electron in JS/TS

But if you want to avoid those then you could try the Rust GUI ecosystem. That gives you a few options:

- gtk-rs which uses GTK but allows you to write in Rust rather than C

- Dioxus which does use CSS layout (renders using Tauri webview under the hood) but allows you to write the code generating that in Rust. And the "backend" code is entirely Rust.

- Iced which is pure Rust with it's layout system. But tbh it's still pretty immature and you'll be writing a lot of widgets yourself.

You could also look at Flutter which works cross-platform and works completely within Dart.
Even though they don't really discuss links like HN does, I think this is the right answer. Frankly I wish the quality of discussion on HN was as high as it is on RR.
Feel free to reach out to quentin@meilisearch.com, we'll find a way for you to evaluate the pro plan!
The talking point afaik, is that NATO is coming to kill all russians, in Russia.

The goal of NATO is to defend members against invasion. Who tends to invade those nations? Russia. BTW, I am fully in support in NATO.

I think it's fair to say that NATO is an anti-Russian imperialist organization.
containers are not thread safe though, so the thread safe sanitizer will be useful there.

ASAN and UBSAN are supposed to be handled by containers internally with RAII if they're used correctly, I still turn on both ASAN and UBSAN to catch bugs, it does not hurt.
Not meaning to sound insulting but funnily enough your comment reads like one written by ChatGPT.
It would be nice of some would… and move out Putin…

I’m no fan of the Russian kleptocracy, but a peaceful one would save a lot of lives. Including a lot of Russian lives.
We’ve been using a Meilisearch for the last six months or so and have been delighted with its performance and usability. It uses a fraction of the resources as Elasticsearch, and the language support is extensive and very active.

That being said, our cluster is much smaller than other ones I’ve worked with in the past, so I can’t comment on its reliability at massive scale. I’ve also been very impressed with how active contributors are on GitHub and in their Discord. Everyone seems like good people, and it’s a project I’m excited to keep using.
It sounds like you're describing a classic COGS scenario. Not sure I see the loophole, can you expand?
Maybe today.

In five or ten years, refusing to use LLMs for this sort of work is likely going to be pretty analogous to refusing to use a computer, and typing up all your documents on a typewriter.
I think its not HN but it's the openness and inclination to help that makes HN very unique.
I love growthbook!

An Introduction to Application Monitoring
Bounds checking is not zero cost in all cases. So long as you can demonstrate even one example of a case where the bounds checking isn't zero cost, and yet you can prove that the bounds check isn't needed there will be push back. C++ is about don't pay for what you don't use, and if you don't need the bounds check you shouldn't have to pay for it. You cannot have high performance programing if there are various 'little' if statements added all over.

Remember that when proving a program you often have more information than the C++ compiler does. The compiler never see the whole program, only the part you are building now. Thus it is easy to show the above just by having the calling function and callie function in different translations units.

If high performance isn't one of your goals, then why are you writing C++ at all?

Note, languages like rust do should there is opportunity to do better than C++ without a runtime cost. However they do not provide perfect protection, either there are cases where they cannot do the bounds check, or there are times where they pay the price of a not needed bounds check. All such languages prove is C++ can do better in some cases.

"signing away a voice for a few grand"

I sure hope not. That is equal to a few pennies in the grand scheme of things. Someone signing away their voice (not that I agree anyone ever should, for any reason) should require enormous compensation in return at a minimum.
At work I program mostly in Python. But if it's for fun, I strongly recommend Pharo. It's a language in the Smalltalk family, forked from Squeak: https://pharo.org/

The whole environment makes the programming experience much better, and it's self-contained, so you don't need to spend a lot of time wrangling dependencies just to get started. Also there's a MOOC for it:

Interesting! I suppose this uses gpt and/or midjourney/stable diffusion? I played a bit and it seems quite fun.

Ebiten is a nice engine for pixel graphics/game stuff, but there are also more traditional canvas libraries.
I only said anything at all because ThePowerOfFuet a) posted the exact same reply twice to different comments and b) rather than giving a personal explanation, linked to an article that is neither succinct nor does a good job of explaining the issue. I have made a simmilar remark to bot-style corrections of "the Ukraine" perhaps once in the past year. I also did not downvote, flag or otherwise discourage ThePowerOfFuet's comments, only point out that formulaic responses to perceived politically incorrect language are perhaps not that productive. You are free to disregard my comment if you do not feel you get any value from it.

And as for the original comment otherwise being perfect english, that doesn't mean much. You can be fluent enough to write a ten-word sentence but still get some details slightly wrong. And I'm not saying that steponlego specifically is not a native speaker, only mentioning that in general use of "the" where it should not be can easily be a second language issue rather than intentional.
Just no. Search shows you their work. GPT doesn't.

Ask HN: DNS redundancy, how to do it right?
I hope I'm doing this right, since it's my first submission. It is a question directed to sysadmins of HN:

How do I reach nameserver redundancy?

Right now our provider is getting DdoS'ed, so my employer is not reachable by mail, web etc. If I do a whois on the affected domain, I'll get multiple nameservers (which the provider owns).

Looks like this:

nserver ns01.provider.tld
nserver ns02.provider.tld
nserver ns03.provider.tld
nserver ns04.provider.tld
nserver ns05.provider.tld

Actually two questions arise from this:

- Is it a good idea to setup my own nameserver which basically just "copies" the entries from my current provider and specify it (wherever that may be). By doing this I won't have to maintain 2 different NS, only the one from the provider since the 'secondary' will simply be a copy of the primary?

- Is it a good idea to simply increase the TTL of the important A/MX-Records?
Will for example, 1.1.1.1 still resolve my domain correctly, even if my providers nameserver is down for an hour? (assumed I have a TTL of 3 hours for example)

Thankfully, I'm not the CTO, but since he mentioned to me that this happens regularly to the provider (being DdoSed), it got me really curious what the right mitigation to being unreachable is.
Congrats to the team, it's been interesting to watch the development of Meilisearch (and it's close competitor Typesense). Algolia has really paved the way here but it's nice to see the open-source options with more configurations and better default UX.

There's also many search libraries if you want to embed search more deeply into your app. I have a list of modern search systems and libraries here: https://manigandham.com/post/search-systems-libraries
It's almost like we need a way to certify products and authentic, much like we look for the "organic" label in a store.

I don't know if that's the solution, but with Amazon also going downhill rapidly, something has got to give.
Thank you very much! I'll share your comment with the team <3
Yes that’s our long term goal. I don’t like having to adapt 4 different tools to do things which are quite similar.
This isn't really a problem with Etsy dropshippers, handmade goods simply cannot compete with mass-produced goods as you can't scale your time. Without scale you need magnitude, people must be willing to pay you for a piece of work much more than it cost you to make it, and you must do so consistently.

My suggestion is to put a few example woodworks you've done on your spare time for sale with no expectation of making any money from them, and then offer to make custom handmade designs for people.

You can charge a lot more for those and you are basically guaranteed a sale for the time you spend on each one. The rest comes down to marketing, I have a print-on-demand shop with my own designs with 0 sales. I mostly use it as a way to leave a mark somewhere of things I've made that didn't involve coding. Burnout does that to you. Losing 20 cents for each design I make, but hey, I enjoy it.
Those servers are for looking up real domains, they're not designed to be a detection mechanism for malicious actors. Chrome intentionally fires unresolveable uncacheable domains at the root servers. That's dishonest use of public infrastructure at the very least.

I doubt Google would be happy if Microsoft or Apple were to build a network availability tool into their systems that executes random Google queries that won't get you a result to see if searches are being redirected.
Well, it's a fact that all that technology is incredibly brittle. Systems lack resilience, error recovery, and accessible debuggability, and when something breaks, there's a high chance it'll have disastrous effects. It's objectively safer to stay within the "works for me" happy paths that authors are likely to be actually testing/using themselves. Even this sometimes fails, sometimes seemingly without reason, only to later (maybe) start working again. It's a nightmare, a constant source of stress and another thing that people feel they have no control of at all. It's not strange users flock to authoritarian-style environments, managed by someone who do have the capability to control that chaos to some extent - even if they sell users' PII data to Sunday and back.

There are complex reasons for this, but the end result is simply that IT is not ready for mass adoption. Software is still in its infancy - I suspect that the broader the possible implications of technology, the longer it will take it to be ready to be mass adopted. We gave up all hopes of ever proving program correctness in the 80s, then in the last decade we've given up all pretenses that we know what we're doing... and nobody saw a difference. By all rights, software should be confined to research labs and garages of nerds for quite a few more decades.

The problem is that this technology is too useful. It has too far-reaching applications in almost all spheres of human activity. When the software (and all layers below it) actually works, it brings small miracles to its users, enough that they're willing to pay a lot for a product obviously unfinished, rushed, that'll probably get killed after few years. They think that, yeah, it breaks all the time and I'm afraid to breathe in its direction, but it's ok, I'm strong, I can deal with it if I'm able to do X or Y.

Tl;DR? I dunno. Maybe developers should put more effort into professionalizing the field, but this kind of thing is impossible to rush. Or maybe the users should get a grip and accept that it's not developers who force them to use their products. The massive amounts of money involved, along with the life-changing potential of IT products, skew incentives so much that, currently, both developers and users pretend that it's all fine, even though it obviously isn't, and then both complain. Users are stupid, developers are lazy, but neither can live without the other any longer...
Not a professional but I think I follow markets pretty closely for a retail trader.

Twitter / FinTwit is the best

Level of discussion is not always great but I find its way better than anywhere else. Twitter Spaces usually have great discussions since people are less likely to troll vs tweets.

One thing I've found though is if the person is getting too cocky and going on victory laps, it's pretty much always a good time to counter trade them.

You'll be able to find some great Substack's, Podcasts, Youtube channels from Twitter as well if you're following the right people.

Some that I follow

- @fedguy12 - macro
- @JulianMI2 - macro
- @biancoresearch - macro
- @acrossthespread - Japan macro
- @anasalhajji - energy
- Pretty much any central bank, government official
- Fund managers. Many of them aren't too active and just crosspost links to videos. Cliff Asness is one that is active though

Podcasts:

- Forward Guidance
- Odd Lots

Reddit I find is usually not much better than SeekingAlpha, Zero Hedge, etc. even on the more "serious" subreddits. Most of the posters are John Bogle acolytes or post the Warren Buffet quote on buying index funds. A lot of the threads don't have much besides "you should buy a broad based index fund with a lump sum [link to Vanguard whitepaper] [link to backtest starting from year 2000-2010]".

HN is still way better than Reddit on the rare finance/economics post. Every finance thread you'll get a few people who have unique insights/opinions but I think the majority is still a lot of retail market participants who just regurgitate the Reddit stuff.

Yeah I agree this site is not the definitive answer to the question of airline safety with all its nuances. Like you said, in the end it is a work of just one person and it is perhaps more for entertainment value than information content, because you still have to take it with a huge grain of salt if you meant to make any serious decisions based on it.

But it is good enough for an inspiration to start a tongue-in-cheek airline shitlist the person I was replying to mentioned. At least I got a joky vibe from their comment. Perhaps they were super serious in that they were gonna start one right this second?
