Backend-leaning full-stack software engineer working remotely in diverse teams for the last 10 years.

I’ve helped companies to scale their applications from millions of users to an architecture that can scale x10 that. Twice. With different tech stacks.
Thank you for a fine riposte to that meandering longform writing.

Build a functional core, isolated with values, and an imperative shell. Systems built this way can be pulled apart into microservices if you really need to.

Very quick talk on what it buys you: https://www.destroyallsoftware.com/talks/boundaries

PSA: Microservices architecture is a technique for scaling organizations, not systems.
I think your point is fairly solid. If you rephrase this to "just less than half the students in CA read or do math at the average level for their grade, in their state", the response should be "well, duh?".
Ask HN: What low-tech way do you use to manage competing tasks/to-dos
I am in a work environment with a very wide range of tasks, some quick, some easy, some coordination, some contribution, some urgent, some long-term but important. All these involve a different cast of characters, teams and validation chains.

I am very well able to handle 'urgent' tasks with the typical email-is-my-todo method, but i struggle to get a handle on all the larger and more long-term tasks. I also cannot add own software to the device or use external services as the work is often sensitive.

I tried GTD and various other methods or apps but they are usually either too complex and rely on consistency (like gtd) or assume that tasks are more or less uniform in style (like most to do list approaches).

What methods based on either paper, typical office tools (outlook, OneNote) or that are tool agnostic have you found to work for handling your day to day while staying sane?
Even longer ago, with fixed width fonts and fixed size screens things were even better. On C64 the keyboard had --- ||| characters to draw line with corner characters T splits and + . The empty space was filled with space characters so you could just move around your cursor. Someone with no previous experience could draw boxes and make cool looking menus. Could stick a few sprites on it with absolute positioning.

Supporting all kinds of screen sizes is a dumb idea but we are stuck with it. If you also want to support different languages the screen is mostly empty with logograms and the languageswithgiantwords stick out of the boxes. We are pretty lucky English is a reasonable middle ground.
its quite possible this started as a hangover excuse
Godot has always had native module support; the reason it is not more popular is because it is more or less impossible to support a stable C++ ABI across compilers and operating systems. So you have to build Godot yourself for your dev platform and every platform you ship to. That is what GDExtension and the official C++ bindings solve. Once you set up your builds native modules are totally decent, but personally I find it saps productivity compared to GDScsript, and if you only need it for performance critical code then GDExtension is probably fine (I haven’t used it or GDNative, but I did write native modules before those other options existed).

I'm a product oriented fullstack senior software developer and team lead with over 15 years of experience. Jack-of-most-trades, master of some.

I've worked in startups and consulting. I'm looking for a product company that ships often where I can stay long term and grow professionally.
Right. Although crates.io links to Github repositories, it doesn't get the code from them. They can be out of sync, which caused me some trouble yesterday.
Bigscreen is a PCVR device that requires external lighthouse tracking. That approach is basically dead in the water outside of a small community of enthusiasts as it is way too high friction.
I asked Bing Chat to find benchmarks for the i7-12700H's efficiency cores
I think that in the US, the vast majority of the population isn't that far from a business that will print your document for you.

For those who aren't, I can see why they would buy a printer. But they're still getting scammed.
My impression was that the quoted text is only a part of the pre-prompt. I've seen cases where ChatGPT gives a length in the order of thousands of words for the "conversation so far".

Here are a couple (questionable) sources indicating the pre-prompt is much longer:

https://www.reddit.com/r/ChatGPT/comments/zuhkvq/comment/j1k...

https://www.reddit.com/r/ChatGPT/comments/11ct5zd/chatgpt_re...

Edit: I was struggling a bit with the best jargon to refer to the "pre-prompt"; apparently OpenAI refers to it as the "system message" (contrasted with the "user message") - https://platform.openai.com/docs/guides/chat/instructing-cha...
It is apparently possible to do networking over some Thunderbolt interfaces, would it be possible to connect the devices over Thunderbolt to one another directly? Four ports each, so form a mesh! I guess TB4 can go up to 40Gbps, although it sounds like there’s a bit of overhead when using it as a network, and also I have no idea if there’s some hub-like bottleneck inside the chip…
Sourcetable.com | designer-who-codes / product engineer | Full Time | Remote (North America) or SF

Sourcetable is building a networked spreadsheet to make data accessible to everyone.

We're hiring for a product engineer / designer to join the team. This is a combined design / frontend development role. The brief is that you will be implementing a lot of your designs, while also leading design direction for Sourcetable itself. You will be the first full-time design hire, working closely with the CEO.

You do not need a degree to apply, but you must be able to demonstrate that you have worked on hard things. It will also be helpful if you have previous experience at a startup (we especially like working with ex-Founders).

https://sourcetable.com/about is a good place to learn more about what we're up to. You will be joining as person no.7 on the team.

Is that accounting for manufacture emissions as well?

I agree with you though, but what if we could sell fully electric vehicles with only ~100km range? I would buy it if I was really saving the cost and weight of a whole engine block. Useless for road trips, but most people don't need to be taking road trips every day.
Article title is wrong, which is made clear in first para.

>> Germany's government is refusing to agree to European Union plans to effectively ban the sale of new cars with combustion engines from 2035, according to Finance Minister Christian Lindner.

(Fossil fuels = bad) does not mean the same as (combustion engine = bad). There are lots of green combustion options, first on the list being hydrogen gas as fuel for a combustion engine. Then there are fuel-from-air approaches whereby a normal combustion engine would burn hydrocarbon fuel made without "fossil" carbon sources. German auto makers are rightfully upset at being told to abandon such lines.
Thanks for taking the time to read the article and comment. Appreciate your feedback. As you point out, my last couple paragraphs were somewhat speculative and handwav-y. Do you have an alternative viewpoint on what allows LLMs to be able to somewhat accurately answer complicated math questions, despite lacking an explicitly programmed math solver? It sounds like you may be better informed than me–would love to hear your thoughts.

> that the author clearly didn't read. I guess there's too many scary maths for a "layman".

No need for the personal attack. I did read the paper and the math in the paper is not particularly complicated.
Does it help a struggling student if the teaching is 1) too fast and 2) based on things the student hasn't learned in previous years?

Of course tracking is a good idea.
I think you are bringing up a key point. Probably the most important thing is whether we are getting better or worse. If kids 20 years ago were better able to do math in 8th grade than kids this year, it may indicate a very real problem. If we are are basically saying that not every kid is in the top 20% of what we want them to achieve, that will probably always be true. Not everyone is going to always make an A.
No one disallows using the J5 cable. That's the entire point. That's what makes all this fair. It's the consumer who chooses what products s/he will use.

The only thing being codified here is that if you happen to use a janky cable Apple didn't certify, the results are on you.

All that, to my mind, is totally reasonable. You can use a certified cable. You can use a non certified cable. The consumer is totally free to make any choice s/he chooses. They only warrant that if you use the certified cable, your phone won't blow up.
Do we think ford even bother with SIM cards? Lots of modern 5G devices have e-sims etc, much easier for the factory floor if SIM card can be loaded via software too. None of my families cellphones have physical sims anymore either.
Gotcha thanks, I exclusively use the app, but for puzzle I think I can branch out. I prefer tap to move as opposed to mouse.
I agree that education is extremely important to fight against social attacks. I would still add that I know a LOT of very intelligent people who are also extremely intolerant (think racism, antisemitism, homophobic, etc.)

I’ve yet to understand how this phenomena continues to persist in spite of education levels continuing to grow.

One of my current theory is that face to face interaction, especially between different types of people, is a requirement. And the wave of fascism that we see is due to face-to-face interaction going to an ATL during covid.
This is a common but false claim. Property tax funding is supplemented by state and federal taxes to compensate disparities:

https://www.heritage.org/education/report/the-myth-racial-di...

on average, both Black and Latinx total per pupil expenditures exceed White total per pupil expenditures by $229.53 and $126.15, respectively [total per-pupil funding is around $14k, so the differences are negligible] - https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/23328584198724...

And the US spends more than average per pupil - more than Belgium, the Netherlands, Sweden, Germany, Finland, and Japan: https://nces.ed.gov/programs/coe/indicator/cmd
Thunderbird. The encryption is OK. The UI feels a bit outdated though.
Surely you would have had an easier time if the teacher taught in German.

Isn't it usually just a money thing? They have a huge car industry and a huge chemical industry, both require quite a bit of fossil fuels.
From a software perspective, they are. Most games don't change requirements (or base code) during their maintenance releases, as these releases may fix some code bugs, more often than not provide only incremental updates on content. Compare that with eg. intermediate releases of software like OpenOffice.
You know the baker didn’t refuse service and was happy to sell them an already made cake, he just didn’t want to make a cake with a gay couple on it, right? Are you really saying the multiple lawsuits weren't ridiculous?
Where was any of that mentioned? Complete strawman argument.
The solution is simpler. People are lazy.

Schools don't equip kids with literacy, life skills and critical thinking because highschoolers equipped with those skills are more effort to manage.
It's an answer, but I still find it entirely unconvincing for a static personal blog. Better? Sure. Necessary? Damning if it's absent? No.
ChatGPT API examples are missing (what to use instead of completions?) and also missing in playground. Hope they will add them soon.
Thanks for your kind offer :)
I have a remarkable tablet (e-ink device), on which I handwrite todo's in a specific file. That file is synced to my computer, on which it gets translated to text and exported to an org-mode file and parsed into my org-agenda. I can then view/complete/index my TODO's both digitially on my laptop/phone, or analogue on my tablet

Not really low-tech, but a lot more physical than pure GTD
Given how strict OpenAI has been about what you can do with their API in the past and how hard it was to get some legitimate apps through approval, I would imagine they'd just shut this competitor's API access down.
The degree to which we consider, "locked in" life worthwhile is 2 fold: The degree to which they were trained through their senses prior to being, "locked in" and the possibility of returning to an experience of the world through their senses.

I'm not sure we would consider an infant born locked in and never likely to recover, "sentient"

This is compounded with LLMs by the fact that, aside from a temperature sensor in a server rack somewhere, it doesn't even have the same "hardware" as an infant to experience the world.

This looks like C++ rather than WASM. Am I misunderstanding something?
I was very curious about this claim and it seems that's not quite right. Of course the phrase "essential complexity" was applied to non-software topics before Brooks (Wikipedia correctly notes that the distinction between essence and accident goes back to Aristotle), but it seems Brooks was not the first to apply it to software either. I would not deny that he popularized it.

Book search results for "accidental complexity" between 1920 and 1985:
https://www.google.com/search?q=%22accidental+complexity%22&...

Book search results for "essential complexity" between 1920 and 1985 (a lot more results):
https://www.google.com/search?q=%22essential+complexity%22&l...

Here's a publication from 1981 defining "essential complexity" specifically with reference to computer programs.
https://www.google.com/books/edition/Validation_Verification...

Note that there's another result that claims to be from 1968 but the text of the book says it's from 1996.

Interestingly "essential complexity" was used earlier and more often than "accidental complexity", probably because the former sufficiently implies the existence of the latter.

Sure there are a lot of egos on the business side of blockchain, but I meant smart contract & protocol auditing.
I don't know if it intentional, but a bank owned property in my neighborhood has been vacant for years and they will not put it on the market. I can only guess as to why, but my guess would be that they are underwater on the property and are willing to hold on until either market conditions improve or something happens to the property and they can collect insurance.
Then we're reading this sentence from TFA quite differently:

> Shrimp states that Apple will limit data and charging speed for cables connected to iPhone without the MFi certification.

To me (and I'd wager it's the same for most folks), that's Apple implementing a technical block on the cables separate from their actual capabilities.
Waymo lays off over 130 employees in second round of cuts so far this year
Ok so can someone provide 10 steps to launching your own voice assistant?
That's if it's in your sales flow, not if it's in your software.
Regularization in Neural Networks
I’m sure such a switch would be serving some pretty beefy nodes, though, right? Maybe the compute:communication can be held constant with less-powerful Mac mini nodes?
This is a bit of an aside but I wouldn't trust anything that Malcolm Gladwell says at face value. He approaches questions from a narrative perspective and Cherry picks studies or data to make a nice story. At the end of the day, he is a writer and not a scientist and that's where his priorities is lie
So how long before 2035 will be 20XX ban on ICE and then slowly fizzles out? Exactly as happened with biofuels?
How to Write Like Ryan Holiday
We have a few friends and family in their 90’s but I thought it better to stick with people everyone knows
Pretty sure this would just reset what is normal. What children know how to do in 8th grade is going to be a normally distributed curve. Maybe you can move the curve to the right, but then what is normal just shifts to the right.
Guess: The actual data is that 20% of new cars are sold to people in apartments. Because the folks in apartments don't replace their cars as often, and/or are more likely to buy used cars.
The article being discussed here is "less than half of California students reading at grade level", so my opinion on "one third of fourth grade students reading at substandard level" is basically the same as my opinion on that, because they're not very different statements.
I certainly wouldn't chance a $1.5k+ MacBook on a bargain basement USB-C cable.
ChatGPT runs a highly fine tuned (and pruned) version of `text-davinci-003` so it's probably much much smaller and thus cheaper than 003. Possibly as cheap as 10x less or as much as the `text-davinci-002` or earlier models anyway.

Hello, I'm Rachel. I'm a fullstack software engineer. I’m eager to break into software engineering and just finished the Coding Dojo bootcamp. While I’m short on industry experience, I’ve got drive and ambition in spades. I've worked with various technologies and am always eager to learn more. I prefer full stack or back-end over front-end work, but open to front-end. I'm passionate about learning and self-improvement, different technologies, frameworks, and tools, and would love to work with a great team!

Looking forward to hearing from you.
It’s not possible not to work for someone in most situations. You will always have customers, and have to basically work for them. Also, there aren’t many one person businesses, or CEO roles. You often have to work with others.

I actually think corporate puts the work in a meaningful format.
It’s so you don’t go directly to the company’s career page and then they lose out on their fee.

> Some schools being above grade level has nothing to do with teaching methodology, and everything to do with student composition

While I mostly agree, we shouldn't underestimate the destruction that can be wrought by a bad teacher.
I thought a lot of fancy words were used, but very little was said.
Bound to happen, so establish yourself as deeply as possible as quickly as possible. Once folks are hooked up to these APIs, there's a cost and friction to switching. This just feels like a land grab that OpenAI is trying to take advantage of by moving quickly.
That is one downside. Since I only print once in a while, I just turn it on when I need to print something.
I don't know much about AI development but does OpenAI really have some secret sauce? Aren't the algorithms mostly public and OpenAI's main advantage was to have enough money to build something? Won't other companies do the same too, just a little later?

I feel people like Altman will lose interest once they have sold OpenAI for big money.
I suspect the glut of bank owned homes might suddenly burst. Right now banks are finding it more profitable to rent these homes and own them as appreciating assets, but what happens if rental prices bottom out, or the banks need cash?
