Interesting that Red Bull didn't respond to his request for sponsorship. He said himself that he doesn't fit the mold (no self promotion, plays piano, no other extreme sports), but that seems like it might be a great strength, to attract a different audience? An odd introvert looked up to by other odd introverts?

Or maybe everything about marketing/advertising will always lean towards catering to extroverts/neurotypical people.

(Also unrelated, I wonder if there is a link between less anxiety and getting into an "instinctual" state. Like how he does juggling before a dive)
That's very insightful and shows that you're data-driven. I would also prioritize applying to roles you know you'll love doing rather than trying to apply to various roles, unless you're looking for something net new.

I don't understand that last bit : in my understanding, the way that social security numbers are used in the US would be illegal in most (?) countries in Europe ?

For instance, in France specifically since the 1974 SAFARI scandal that resulted in the creation of the French data protection authority and assorted laws in 1978, and happened when the government in secret attempted to (and had to stop due to the outrage) link various (then paper) administrative files into a centralized computer database through a single social security number.

Thank you for mentioning qryn! And yes, thanks to our growing community the rough edges should all be well rounded and we now support logs, metrics and telemetry formats with very decent results at a fraction of the complexity, without reinventing the wheel or adding new protocols and formats for people to adopt and learn. It's good if it just works right? And now with https://qryn.cloud we continue our mission towards a lightweight polyglot stack for core and edge observability - on top of the growing ClickHouse superpowers, as always!

Hi, no the scope of Geogram is not elementary, it has the following functionalities:

- Mesh reconstruction from 3D pointsets

- Mesh analysis

- Mesh repair

- Anisotropic remeshing

- Texture atlas generation

- Texture baking, normal map generation, ambient occlusion map

- Tetrahedral meshing (with tetgen)

- Boolean operations (upcoming)

- Delaunay, Voronoi, Laguerre diagrams, convex hulls in 2D and 3D. Highly optimized parallel implementation (used e.g. in cosmological simulations)

- Manifold Harmonics (Laplacian Eigenvalues)

- Parallel linear solver (CPU and GPU)

See the following link for examples:

Show HN: High School – A Redis Mutex in Ruby and Lua
In America it's not just partisan it's state sponsored. The American media has a history of being covert propagandists. George Edward Creel was the OG master at slipping in narratives to publications. Creel never used straight-out propaganda like the BBC would have and preferred that "news media" (on all sides of the spectrum) inject state-sponsored innuendo. That's always been how we manufacture consent in the US. At one point Creel had 80K on his payroll and to the best of my knowledge it's never properly been explained how his WWI organization was re-orged.

It's hard to say what the hardest constraint will be, at this point. Imaging and scanning are definitely hard obstacles; right now even computational power is a hard obstacle. There are 100 trillion synapses in the brain, none of which are simple. It's reasonable to assume you could need a KB (likely more tbh) to represent each one faithfully (for things like neurotransmitter binding rates on both ends, neurotransmitter concentrations, general morphology, secondary factors like reuptake), none of which is constant. That means 100 petabytes just to represent the brain. Then you have to simulate it, probably at submillisecond resolution. So you'd have 100 petabytes of actively changing values every millisecond or less. That's 100k petaflops, at a bare, bare, baaaare minimum, more like an exaflop.

This ignores neurons since there are only like 86 billion of them, but they could be sufficiently more complex than synapses that they'd actually be the dominant factor. Who knows.

This also ignores glia, since most people don't know anything about glia and most people assume that they don't do much with computation. Of course, when we have all the neurons represented perfectly, I'm sure we'll discover the glia need to be in there, too. There are about as many glia as neurons (3x more in the cortex, the part that makes you you, coloquially), and I've never seen any estimate of how many connections they have [1].

Bottom line: we almost certainly need exaflops to simulate a replicated brain, maybe zettaflops to be safe. Even with current exponential growth rates [2] (and assuming brain simulation can be simply parallelized (it can't)), that's like 45 years away. That sounds sorta soon, but I'm way more likely to be underestimating the scale of the problem than overestimating it, and that's how long until we can even begin trying. How long until we can meaningfully use those zettaflops is much, much longer.

[1] I finished my PhD two months ago and my knowledge of glia is already outdated. We were taught glia outnumbered neurons 10-to-1: apparently this is no longer thought to be the case. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glia#Total_number

[2] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FLOPS#/media/File:Supercompute...
Well if you're talking about a single query, virtually no one hits that scale. But in terms of over-all QPS in quickly-scaled apps, 6 digit QPS is super common. All it takes is a poorly programmed notification or messaging feature to hit that number. Also, that was for sure a high-water mark, not the typical usage!
Actually I made a personal decision to live in a walkable place. Repeatedly. But of course people still insist on driving their cars (often dangerously) in my area, regardless of how walkable that place is.

Please share some walkable, bikeable places in the USA here. I really want to live in one but my research reveals very few options where you aren't extremely likely to be run over by a vehicle if you dare to walk or bike exclusively, especially at night.

My criteria requires a grocery store, a coffee shop, and some kind of watering hole with food (brewery or pub) an easy walk from my door. It's amazing how few of those places exist in the USA, and how expensive they can be when you find one.

I don't have a car with LED bulb so I can't check, but I wonder how would one bulb works when normal and high beams have different beam pattern. One might be able to accomplish that with one LED bulb if it switches on/off certain LEDs in the module or the bulb is movable, but then no PWM is required.
This happens even with cheap non-dimmable lights. If you skimp on filtering in the power supply the LEDs will flicker, but not in a way that's visible to the eye, but very noticeable with a rolling shutter.
Every single thread on airbnb seems to be dominated by this comment. I really don't understand the FUD.

You'll get no argument from me on that front, but I think that's a pretty bipartisan failing.

I think it’s important to mention Palantir in this context.
Low interest rates combined with strict regulatory regimes that prevent capitalists from building more housing in response to price signals while also making it unappealing to rent to permanent tenants?
We've been staying in hotels or hostels a lot more ever since the price and fees for AirBnB went through the "roof". As others have mentioned, the quality of hosts have gone from actual caring people to a shit side hustle. Really disappointing.

What other services are people using instead of AirBnB?
I do wish they had more examples though.
All the things people dislike about Airbnb comes down to hosts not being able to leverage economics of scale for their rentals in any coherent way. Typically hosts will manage a bunch of places across town and so a late or early checkout could easily see them have to redo their logistics plans for the whole day. On the other hand hotels get more efficient with scale since the reception is there 24/7 anyways and they can just make a not that certain rooms need to be cleaned a bit later and the cleaning staff is never too far away.
Anecdotally, I am traveling to a beach town in the off season (east coast US) next week to see family. A lot of Airbnb's were showing rates competitive with local hotels, ~$120/night. Staying 3 nights, I expected to checkout seeing ~$400, but upon checkout I see a bill for $800! Needless to say, I am staying at a hotel for $400. At least I won't be given a list of chores to complete upon checkout ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Three years ago we made a list of recipes. We're not very creative in the kitchen, so we've just been cycling through them.

When we started, I wrote down the price of each ingredient. For the last three years I've been buying the same things at the grocery store and watching the total increase.

I know the official inflation numbers are lower than 33%, but that's about the increase I'm seeing in the grocery store.

I'm no lover of Airbnb, but I think this is just money getting worse.

Emacs has amazing documentation.

You can ask what a specific shortcut key does, you can ask what a specific lisp function does. Everything is linked together (so you can get from the shortcut to the function and vice versa) -- there's a direct link into code/implementation so you can traverse various levels of abstractions.

When I contributed a module to melpa last year, the biggest back and forth was about documentation and description of what everything does.

The doc system makes Emacs a joy to use and really makes it a stand out.
Also, the redis source itself. You know when they say “the code should be its own documentation”? Redis is a prime example of that (plus it has many good actual comments too).
That's what the whole ESG kerfuffle has been about. There are some funds that are "socially minded" that try to exclude cigarette manufacturers and other bad things. They're smaller and have a higher expense ratio than VTI.
I’ll criticize it.

I recognize this is a preview and I desperately hope this implementation isn’t kept around and treated as a quirk.

This implementation is extremely unintuitive given their explanation of the expected behavior of CSS Nesting and the & symbol.

To quote:

The & signals to the browser “this is where I want the selector from outside this nest to go”.

Their explanation and the actual implementation result in a majorly different CSS selector.

The implemented functionality, however useful, makes no sense as a default if one can explicitly use :is to achieve this behavior like below.

.foo .bar {
.baz :is(&) {
}
}

The default should behave like they claim it does; simply replace & with the “outside” selector.
YouTube, AdSense, and DoubleClick? Wow. All those are Google's money-making products. Both YouTube and AdSense helped countless content creators across the globe. Not everyone goes to CS school or other graduate programmes for various reasons. These content creators make a good living too, I guess (at least top 5-10% content creators makes good living, but I don't any data to backup). So in a way, if you make money from YouTube or AdSense, then Susan played a big role for sure. Also, regardless of what HN think of Google Ads and Google's privacy policies, it fundamentally helped some those content creators, including support and development for other free Google products such as Gmail, Maps, Search and others stuff etc.
I have used both VRBO amd AirBnB for many years now.

When COVID-19 travel bans proliferated in early 2020, AirBnB proactively refunded my money for a reservation that was nominally no longer cancellable.

VRBO told me to reach out to the host, which turned out to be this apartment rental agency that would ghost my emails for a few days, then offer future credit, then told me to get in line as they have many customers, and eventually processed the refund 3 months or so down the road.

Needless to say, I no longer use VRBO.

If you give a junior front end developer CSS nesting, you can get some very janky results.

Working with SCSS codebases and junior developers, I've seen SCSS nesting get so bad, the line order of the selector in the stylesheet would determine what styling gets used.

Nesting CSS is useful in some cases, but for the majority of use cases it can get unwieldy very quickly.

And you don't have to do chores!

I don't know what these cleaning fees are for if I'm doing all the cleaning! The last place I stayed had a "please, do everything" checkout policy. Take the trash to the dumpster, clean the towels, and run the dishwasher.

The disgusting thing is that they seem to take it on faith that these chores get done. Increasingly, AirBnBs are disgusting. Dirty dishes. Dirty counters. Bedding that I can't prove, but... I'm pretty sure hasn't been washed in a loooong time.

It's still something I put up with if staying for an extended period of time. Mostly for the (dirty) kitchens more than anything else. However, for short stays? Hotels all the way.

The more exposure I've gotten to "impressive" organizations and individuals, the more convinced I've become that competence isn't any more common at all as one goes up the chain. Not less common! Some of them really are bright & have a level head! But also not more common.

It's kind of heartening to realize that the world's mostly run by the incompetent—they're really not any brighter than you or me, and blissfully-ignorantly commit obvious errors or behave irrationally all the time. You could do it too! Why not, a bunch of them are idiots. But it's also horrifying.

Whatever "meritocracy" we supposedly have, as far as I can tell, is a total fiction. Some good, capable people rise, but enough bad ones also do that the proportion's not really any better the closer you get to the top.
