SEEKING WORK | Dubuque, IA USA | REMOTE ONLY

Full snack JavaScript developer well versed in React.js, Next.js, Vue.js, Node.js, Prisma, Tailwind CSS, Webpack, Docker and Kubernetes.

I eat sleep and breathe JavaScript. So much so that my license plate used to be NODEJS https://twitter.com/joshmanders/status/853640782460456960 (It's now my company name)

I've contributed heavily to open source both in tools I use, and my own code being open sourced. You can see my GitHub profiles at https://github.com/joshmanders (personal) and https://github.com/aniftyco (my company org)

I have recently left my full time position to go full time on my company after having received some funding. I want to supplement with a good client or two.

That company is where I am building https://getmakerlog.com a community of ~9000 indie hackers and bootstrappers building their products in public, along with a suite of tools to facilitate indie hackers and bootstrappers.

If you're interested please email me josh@joshmanders.com make sure to mention this thread.
So is the rosenpass tunnel separate from the non PQC tunnel (the non PQC tunnel being used just for rosenpass)?

Because afaik the moment the PSK is changed all packets immediately start being encrypted by it.

If the change doesn't coincide on both the sender and receiver (within an instant), there will be dropped packets until both PSK's are the same again. Being separate from WG, I don't see how you can insert yourself into their state machine for better coordination.
My brother was an electrician for a few years. He quit because of long hours, lots of travel, and low pay. Maybe things are better now that there's a shortage? This was 10 years ago
It just doesn't make sense as a career because of the regulation. You can become a software engineer, get paid more, with less strain on your body, in far less time without any hours or licensing requirements. I have several books on electricity and electrical work, have an interest in it, but why would I ever take the pay downgrade or recommend this path to someone else?

The trades are going to have to start paying more and reducing regulation.
This is probably not the answer you are looking for but I don't have a blog on this. For what it's worth there are existing blogs that talk about managing instances on multiple VPS providers with Ansible. I would actually defer to the proper devops people here that probably have their favorite write-ups on this topic since I basically fumbled my way through it. Some VPS providers have written Ansible plugins that integrate with their API's and some do not which just means spinning up nodes has to be done in their web interface ahead of time and setting up the SSH key trusts. For the ones that do that just means setting shell environment variables that contain the API token and calling their plugin. Linode has an Ansible plugin.
> but you sure are vulnerable to downturns in construction

This is also a really weird point. If you work at FAANG, you are vulnerable to economic downturns. Just look at how so many tech companies have decimated their workforce.
One can examine the ethics of a racial question by switching the races.

If you were asked whether or not "It's Ok to Be Black" or "It's Ok to be Jewish" or "It's Ok to Be Hispanic" or "It's Ok to be Asian" and answered with anything but "yes", what would people say about you?
GDScript is absolutely delightful, just give it a go.

People are always skeptical about it because they fear it is another thing to learn but it is very tailor made for Godot and for that reason you will pick it up in no time.

If you have worked with any scripting language, you will feel right at home. JS/TS would be a worse experience because that language is not designed for Godot.

City Transit Systems Begin to Peer over the Fiscal Cliff
Where I live it takes about 5 years of working experience as an apprentice to even be allowed to apply for a license. So you're going to throw away 5 years of earning to get to the point you can go on your own and charge market rates. I'd probably say you missed the boat if you're over 30 at this point.
I'm not sure what sort of smart meter integration is required to make this happen, but it would be sweet if the electric car could ramp down or pause it's charging near-instantly when the induction stove or AC kicks on, since those are both intermittent and the car charging can wait.

> A typical new bike model does not come with a parts list, and the brands don't stock spares.

This is probably true for BSOs, but you start getting a complete list of components on a bicycle well before you hit the $1000 price point, and generally everything other than the brake pads are extremely standardized and easy to find. For whatever reason manufacturers really like to get creative with disk brake pad shapes.
There is definitely something symbol-adjacent that needs to happen inside of the model; this is what I assume happens in the brain. But it is not purely symbolic.

For instance, consider voicing the end of a letter: “I will definitely not be stabbed in the bac…” (where the word "back" quickly devolves into a line that crosses through the rest of the letter). It goes from symbolic to contextual, implying that the author was stabbed midway through writing it, so the voicing must end with a yell of playful agony.

The same goes for calligraphic art, such as the Al Jazeera logo, for instance, which is intended to be understood as both a sequence of Arabic letters, and a depiction of a fire. A model seeing this image for the first time, needs to see it both ways at the same time.

But it’s true that we can’t just throw a transformer at the problem, train it from scratch with video inputs and audio outputs, coupled with a sporadic reward, and suddenly have it be able to solve scans of civil engineering exams. The brain can do it, but not silicon (yet). It is easier to combine models that were trained on simpler losses (tokenized cross-entropy) on simpler problems (next-token prediction), and combine them. Not true AGI learning, but eventually it will fool people into believing it is.
Slack cache mechanism is pretty weird. They keep a few GB of data as cache. I wonder if they've been using this persistently for years instead of creating a better caching mechanism.

Remember that recent case where a lawyer was denied access to Madison Square Garden, because their in-house facial recognition software recognized her being an employee of a law-firm that was litigating against another subsidiary / child company of the owner of MSG Entertainment?

Between this, and that case, I can't say I'm looking forward to the future (ab)use of tech.

Imagine walking into a Walmart, only to get escorted out by security because someone you've been associated with caused a brawl, or shoplifted at Walmart (or some subsidiary of Walmart). Or that you get checked every time you try to use their self-checkout machines.

Probably downvoted for the hijack
> [Lorenz] went on to suggest that the young people of the 1950s enjoyed objectively superior material prospects than young people do today

This is why I think culture is more important than policy. Lorenz’s point is obviously non-sensical. She mentions the “safety net.” But Medicaid didn’t exist in the 1950s. There were no federal student loans. There were no food stamps. Almost nobody went to college. Etc.

But it’s a mistake to say Lorenz is wrong on the facts and leave it at that. She sincerely believes that young people today are worse off than young people in the 1950s. It’s a common refrain expressed by young people.

So what has changed since the 1950s? Culture. We have made massive changes to how society is structured. We have changed what we tell young people about the meaning and purpose of life. We have eliminated social roles and duties and obligations that used to apply to young people. In many cases we have replaced those personal obligations (e.g. to take care of elders) with abstract government funded systems. And maybe those changes aren’t all conducive to the well being of young people.
Next Airbnb will get in the concentration camp business to punish those closely related by their culture.
> Let's diminish ourselves...

You first.
People who really care make their own dependency/build caches, eg, we had Docker containers we could fall back to. If you really needed to patch, build on top of an existing artifact image — and then rebuild when vendor service comes back. In practice, I just waited a few hours.

Problem solved(ish).
It's not about version numbers. I wasn't a UE3 licensee, but I'd imagine that came with decent support and the release of features to keep pace with the industry at the time. Godot obviously can't be expected to provide Epic Games-level support, but the main development efforts from the OSS team was split since they were (understandably) focused on Godot 4. So all of the improvements/changes in 4 were completely useless to most users during that time, who were realistically only going to be able to use 3.5.

There was no hint of a release date, a roadmap, or anything like that. It felt like Godot 4 was going to be stuck in development hell forever, meanwhile people trying to actually build a game would be stuck on the increasingly obsolete and divergent 3.5 (unless you were willing/able to maintain an incomplete engine during development). So that was essentially 4 years of nothing to most people (tbf 3.5 did continue to get bug fixes during that time).

I say this not to trash on the Godot team's work, but rather to say that I think they should focus less on improving the engine for the sake of it, and more on work that seeks to increase the direct value it provides to users (which includes potential customers of W4 Games).

Résumé/CV: https://www.linkedin.com/in/nicholasbsavage/
Email: nick@nicksavage.ca

I am a CPA (former auditor!) who is now a developer, working as a consultant for two firms. I'm looking for part time work. One of the projects I'm involved with now is winding down and I will have about 10 hours a week open starting soon.

I'm interested in how businesses work and how they scale, through modeling processes and the flow of information. A lot of companies run into problems with these type of things, where the 'bureaucratic problem' takes over where there are too many people who can say no and stop something from happening. On the other side, there are firms where there is no structure that just creates chaos. I try to thread the line between the two and help build processes that preserve innovation without falling into the morass.

Right now my main role is working at a large finance company in change management. I'm helping transform business processes with code, and sitting between the accounting department and developers to try and move things in a sensible direction, as well as implementing systems. I'm part management manager part business analyst.

I'm looking to get involved somewhere where my skills might be of use. I am adept now at python, and I've built some internal tools, such as a library for automating financial reporting, some basic CRUD web interfaces for managing data, I built a REST API to serve up some finance data for the rest of the firm, etc.

Here's the sort of things I might be able to help out with:

- I can speak both the business language and the tech language. I can help manage and lead projects while understanding the tech side of things

- Consult on accounting based products. Think of me as a project manager who really understands the domain

- Advise on improving your operations, information flow, processes, internal controls, etc.

- Typical accounting work, like month end closes, financial statements, bookkeeping, analysis, etc. (The advantage here for me would be that I'd like to automate as much as possible, where the typical accountant might not have the skills for that)

- Help put business processes and logic into code

- Make business problems go away (compliance, tax, paperwork type stuff, etc)

- Liason with external accountants, tax people, etc
If you’re early career and have a spouse who can help support you in the early years, hell yes.

It’s a good gig.
It's a fundamentally different problem. AlphaZero (DeepMind) was able to be trained this way because it was setup with an explicit reward function and end condition. Competitive self-play needs a reward function.

It can't just "self-improve towards general intelligence".

I'd say that is dealer specific, I purchased a new Impreza in September of 2021, my specific trim and options weren't on the lot, and was easily given a factory order.

Got a '22 Impreza Sport Hatchback with no hassle, would easily recommend this dealer again.
Seems to be the case on the Impreza forum too, as most owners are buying factory orders from the dealers, with a few saying that the dealer only sells Imprezas thru custom orders.

As for other models, that may be different. My family had no issue with getting a Forester.

200A service here. At some point may need to upgrade to 400A.

I don't think EV charging is a huge deal for many. 20-30A / 240 will usually charge you overnight. You can run it after you are done with the induction stove. I think 100A service can still work for quite a while. Heat pumps are maybe the most iffy thing.
That's because the 'software industry' has a lot of jobs that have nothing to do with coding. Being in the vicinity of that however can be helpful for bridging the learning gap.

Even then, the amount of credentialism is extremely high for anything besides the lowest rung of dev jobs. Look at how people on HN turn their noses up at bootcamps, or really anything less than a CS undergrad degree.

Article spends entire time "debunking" a political pundit who posts "hot takes" on Twitter, doesn't interview a single teen.

Maybe, just maybe, the answer is multi-faceted. Maybe we should take the things kids say at face value if we want to pretend that we are being intellectually honest. Sure, humans are notoriously bad at describing their own qualia and reasons for why they feel the things they do, but listening should surely be our starting point, right?

Furthermore, why is it that capitalism can't both increase our material quality of life, while also alienating us from things that our ancestors enjoyed in abundance? Relationships, the family, simple and fulfilling labor that had an immediate impact on your surroundings, connection with nature, more leisure time, etc. There's no conversion ratio of semiconductor chips to time spent with loved ones. Guess which of the two humans can't live without?

Maybe instead of having a knee-jerk reaction to anti-capitalism, we should objectively look at neoliberal capitalism and see what the negative externalities are of a system that assumes the driving force between human interactions to be economic (one of which is the commodification of everything including relationships).

This article should be titled "picking a fight with Taylor Lorenz" and nothing else.

IMO paying it forward would be paying for it. Comics are not a lucrative business with a big production team. Independent comics are sometimes one person doing everything.
