we can't/won't onboard individual contributors and it is a pain. If you can set up a company, like a LLC or something, we can onboard. It sucks and costs us way more in overhead but these are them rules.

But as other said, only hiring companies instead of individuals protects you from potential lawsuits around social fraud.
What's the payback time on something like that for a modest home in a place which can get significantly under 20 degrees (F) or over 95 degrees for weeks or longer? How effective is it at those extreme temperatures when it matters the most, and how does this affect maintenance costs?

Additionally, there are multiple types of restrictions on where geothermal pumps can be installed, and navigating this can add to costs.

I don't see it as a one size fits all solution, there are far too many people for whom the household/company math doesn't add up. However, I agree we should be doing fair comparison against other renewable-friendly options for all new construction. I'm sure heat pumps could win out in a great many situations, and we should use them where they do.

> classify whether you’re thinking about porn or not, and emits a beep whenever it detects it

Already gone down this road with lower tech. In the 50s - 70s it was in vogue to monitor blood flow to the genitals while subjecting the subject to erotic imagery of various kinds to see what turned them on. [1]

It was then realized that arousal is also correlated with pupil dilation, which meant that a much less invasive test was possible. Which of course led to the Canadian government (and probably other governments) using it in the 1960s to detect possible homosexuals in the public service. [2]

The scientific flaws and human rights violations of such a test are too many to even begin to list in a short post like this. Still, the inconvenient and disturbing thing is: it does work. Sort of. Kind of. Not good enough to be confident about the result with an individual, but a properly run protocol has better than chance odds at determining if a man is gay or straight, in terms of aligning with their self-reports about what arouses them.

Whether someone is actually erotically aroused by something based on a physical response is obviously controversial. For example, a repeatable finding is that self-reported-heterosexual men with intensely homophobic views are more aroused by homosexual male imagery than the average heterosexual male. Commonly reported in the news and media as: homophobic men are secretly gay. And I guess that's one possible interpretation. But someone about to to fly into a fit of rage is also aroused. Sometimes literally -- sexual arousal during flight-or-fight and disgust responses is a thing. So it's tricky to interpret what that result means, if anything.

No doubt we will fall into similar traps again, with the brain scanning version of it.

Well, on the linked product page they chose to write: “This item is not compatible with the Framework Laptop.”

Since they think it’s not compatible, I think that warning should be more prominent.

What I think nobody could have foreseen is how unnerving it feels to be in Elon's experimental implementation of a self-driving car.
I think your front page needs a lot more "what it does" and "what it doesn't (yet)". above that it needs a "why this is not SCAD."

I suspect most people bouncing off openSCAD are upset by the "programming" language, so I hope yours is simpler and has less "functional" annoyances.

Having the first part of your landing page explain how your project doesn't require forcing one's mind through the eye of those needles like SCAD does would be a great step to get people interested in trying to do things with it.
By and large having no VDOM frees you from having to structure things in an unergonomic way, for performance or otherwise, whatever limitations Svelte and Solid have in this regard are self-inflicted. For example my framework allows you to destructure props just fine, still no VDOM (https://github.com/vobyjs/voby).
From my experience in DE, it depends on the company size. Larger enterprises probably will go through an agency, probably to (try to) cover themselves against accusations of false self-employment (Scheinselbstständigkeit).

Anecdotally, the two contracts I had through agencies were still the most lucrative financially, despite the middleman taking a hefty cut, simply because large enterprise pay higher rates.
It does because it repays you with extremely fast and safe code. Prototyping and performance are two concepts that do not mix.

I've seen way too many half baked attempts at making prototypes fast that do end up in complete rewrites.
Hybridisation sounds like a bug not a feature. You get a benefit but with quite an extreme tradeoff.

To be clear I understand that hybrids are current best practice. But the hybrid practice seem antithetical to open source agriculture.

BTW would you say that seed producers have no motivation to develop non-hybrids that will perform as well as hybrids?
C++ could improve its tooling but systems programming is inherently a bit of a fragmented ecosystem. I'm not sure we can shoehorn cargo into all the situations where C, C++, and Fortran have adapted to already.
Direnv loads the environment variables listed in .envrc in the current shell. On Unix all spawned processes inherit the environment of their parent.

It's perfect for development, and reading .envrc outside of interactive shells is just a "source .envrc" away, or use the appropriate plugin (such as Emacs direnv mode)
> There’s a reason why Apple Inc. is under less pressure than tech peers to slash jobs during the current slowdown: It hired more efficiently in the first place.

So there is no official statement from Apple saying that they are not planning a layoff round in the coming months, just the opinion of 2 analysts? Apple isn't avoiding anything.
4DX completely ruined my experience seeing the new Avatar. What an absolute joke. My girlfriend kept getting tossed out of her seat so I had to help hold her in. I bursted out laughing when two people in the movie shook hands and everyone’s seats rocked up and down with the motions of the hand “shake”. It’s kind of amazing that they actually followed through with such an unbelievable awful idea.

So largely I think the confusion stems from there being two major different "types" of heat pumps and they perform very differently.

The first is your conventional type system, this is usually what AC units are in the US. They run at maybe 1 or 2 speeds. These type of heat pumps are common in the southern parts of the US but also will be found paired with a gas furnace in the northern US. Since they don't adjust their output dynamically they tend to start losing capacity/efficiency significantly around 25-30F.

The second is an inverter driven heat pump. You usually find these in mini splits but they can also be found in a standard air handler form factor that would replace a furnace. The inverter allows the compressor to adjust based on demand and exterior temperature to maximize efficiency. This allow these units to operate efficiently down to -13F depending on the unit. Now there will still be some capacity loss at those temps so during the design of the system this has to be taken into account.

For detailed information on the efficiency of heat pumps I would check out NEEPs website. It is a great resource, it will show you capacity and efficiency (COP) of tons of different units across their operating temperatures.

This is a simple and awesome node package, import it and make anything be typing and deleting in console.

There is also up to 10% loss from transmission/distribution. So that makes the two closer though heat pumps still win.
I never knew about this. That's interesting. So then hybrid vigor is the reason farmers don't grow their own seeds, which contradicts the article. Obviously the OSS people would know this, so then the purpose must be more about encouraging plant diversity and allowing more companies to sell these varieties to farmers.
Thanks for the suggestion. Ill see what I can add to make it clear.
> Better infrastructure means you have undersea cables that enable lower latency video streaming such that users prefer your app over the up and coming app.

Uh, this seems like the kind of thing you want to avoid. Long-haul is for connecting data centers, and media should be pushed to the edge with colos?

> If you have billions of users using your product per day, you can split those users into 100 different “universes”. Each of those universes can map to a team of 10-20 people

"Immutable variable" is not an oxymoron, because the value of a variable can and typically will vary via other means than mutation. The value of a variable is potentially different every time it comes to scope, e.g. whenever a function is called.

> and recently there are a lot of economic incentives (at least, here in Europe) to renovate house for energy efficiency, which make solar panel and heat pump very attractive.

Economic but also legal and geopolitical: fuel oil furnaces are getting restricted or banned, and the combination of climate change, air quality standards, and russian instability makes gas look at lot worse than it did 10 or 20 years back.
I get that. I know what you can do with VLANs.

But why do you need it in your home? Do you really cut off your printer in a VLAN and do some specific routing/filtering? I know how to do that, but I just don't see the benefit.

If you want to cut off one device from the internet, my solution would be to set a specific DHCP rule to not deliver a gateway/dns. Easy and good enough to cut off a printer from the internet. My home does not need the same network security as a nuclear power plant...

This vDOM concept never really clicked for me. I always saw it as some sort of shiny feature that a web framework had to have in order to be considered for use during the last decade.

I've rolled a DIY web framework using websockets and a brutish technique where I simply set document.body.innerHTML to whatever the server pushes. Still haven't found a situation where this falls apart, but I am sure HN can invent a hypothetical that would make me ashamed of myself.
React was created in 2013, so it has in fact been "in fashion" for a decade now.

It is if you weren't clear to the hires about the expected lifespan of their position.

An overlooked benefit is that they actually improve comfort over a boiler in a dry climate, so if you live somewhere with low humidity they help keep the air less dry. They also give you heating and cooling.. for places that don’t have Air Conditioning it’s a worthwhile upgrade.
I'm so happy there are people out in the world able to reverse engineer things like this and share the results publicly. Freakin' cool.
It depends on relative prices in your area so we can’t answer that. You would have to calculate it yourself.

Typically it makes the most sense to do when you need to replace your system.
I'm just annoyed that I was talking about heat pumps for the last five years or so and nobody is giving me any credit for running an international conspiracy.

But seriously, it's just the next fish to fry after electric vehicles became a solved problem. Heating buildings is somewhere around 10-25% of total emissions and probably the largest remaining single factor not directly addressed by switching the electric grid to renewables, so many people concerned about climate change have converged on it.
This, also. C and C++'s build model is a train wreck, especially in C++ code gets rebuilt dozens of times due to headers being simply plopped into whatever translation unit you are building. Rust efficiently solves this by defining building abstractions in the language itself, instead of relying on hacks such as #include, PCH, ...
And they failed to hire enough people to bring their AR headset to market which is the other side of the coin.

Gitflow is pretty much a traditional, decades-old, trunk plus release branches model, but with an extra branch that does nothing but receive merges, and the names switched around. Well, and feature branches live longer than in TBD (where an implicit feature branch exists on a developer machine between pulling and pushing). It's 95% a different way of describing an age-old workflow.
Kind of, as someone that knows C++ since 1993, I can assure that getting Rust right for doing GUI programing wasn't that straightforward.

The way I read it, Op was suggesting a flirt with conspiratorial thinking ("someone is doing this") and I wanted to turn to something more rational.

I don't really know how trends and fashions form and haven't thought so much about it. Some aspect of it might look like research into the ising model and phase transitions - small changes in "temperature" everywhere in the mass of people might look like a phase transition in the overall mood.

Yes. You can provide a stubbed out deleter or a stack based allocator. But you're then responsible for making sure the unique_ptr doesn't outlive that stack memory. Though that's true for any reference to stack memory.
It's always wild to me people think the current system is good. When you deposit money is a bank, you no longer own the money directly. You own an IOU from the bank (i.e., you're extending the bank a loan) and then they are free to loan out your money in the form of mortgages, car loans, whatever.

The key point is that under the current system, it's impossible to just own digital money directly! You can only be a creditor to a mortgage-lending company! This is completely crazy. What if I don't want my digital money to be loaned out to mortgages of various risk levels? FDIC insurance (in the US at least) is an attempt to fix this janky system with even more confusing jankiness (better not exceed 250k of digital money in the same account, e.g.). If I could just own digital money directly, FDIC insurance wouldn't make any sense. What am I being insured against??

Blockchains finally make it so everyone can just own their digital money directly, without being forced to instead be creditors to mortgage-lending companies.
Two models having a coherent conversation - a scenario which follows directly from my post - would be a purely textual example of what I mean.

We appear to be in agreement here.
