Supposedly these jobs are the “good” jobs to still have around no matter what because, again, supposedely, they create innovation, which innovation then creates an increase in productivity (among other things), which increase in productivity has been one of the Holy Grails of mainstream economics for the last half century (with the FED being a pillar of said mainstream economics).

So, in that light, losing these jobs would be like throwing away the kid with the bathwater.

I personally don’t agree with all the premises and conclusions I’ve enumerated above, but imo that’s how a mainstream economist (like one working for the FED right now) is most likely to view things.
Ahrefs could probably save another few hundred million if they didn't repeatedly visit the same links over and over indefinitely to find the same error codes or a binary file that they surely don't care about. I see them in my logs for my podcast hosting service, hitting the same 404s for months and months. They end up hitting audio files and downloading (or attempting to download) many gigabytes of content each day. They don't do anything with audio! As soon as they get the HTTP headers, they could say "oops, I don't care about this" and disconnect. And in many cases, they got those URLs from the enclosure tags of RSS feeds... I'm not sure what they were expecting!

In the cloud, not in the cloud, frankly it seems to me like their business would be far more efficient if they tuned what their crawler actually crawled.
This.

"Big Tech" is a hydra with many heads, there are reasons why you'd want to do something about banking right now but there are other problems such as

* Uber spending $25 billion+ on subsidizing half price taxi rides
* A near-monopoly in internet advertising
* Facebook suppressing developments in social media (Tik Tok is so salient because the US stopped innovating and the EU is 7-0, all own goals)
* AMZN supporting a money-losing online store from AWS profits
* Fears about negative social impacts of social media
* Microsoft trashing the game industry with "Game Pass"

there are many things you might want to regulate in SV and tech in general but you have to break them out into individual issues that would be regulated differently, maybe by different agencies.
I think this thread will have tons of views from people in the startup world that are likely to be SVB customers. If we all agree to not do run in the bank, it will improve chances for SVB to make it through the next few days.

I'll start with committing not to withdraw money my company [redacted] holds in the bank.

We stand by SVB.

I invite others to do the same.
Why? When the FDIC steps in, the bank doesn't get to go on operating like nothing happened. They're shut down, the owners of the bank lose their money, and management is fired. It's the depositors who are bailed out.
> No one thinks anything of it today.

Because a lot of people put in a lot of work to legalize it.

> On June 17, 1998, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) published a final rule establishing a new Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 500, “Low-speed vehicles,” and added a definition of “low-speed vehicle” (LSV) to 49 CFR 571.3 (63 FR 33194). This new FMVSS and vehicle class definition responded to the growing public interest in using golf cars and other similarly sized small vehicles to make short trips for shopping, social, and recreational purposes primarily within retirement or other planned, self-contained communities. These vehicles, many of which are electric-powered, offer comparatively low-cost, energy-efficient, low-emission, quiet transportation.[1]

> The definition of LSV established by that rulemaking was, “a 4-wheeled motor vehicle, other than a truck, whose speed attainable in 1.6 km (1 mile) is more than 32 kilometers per hour (20 miles per hour) and not more than 40 kilometers per hour (25 miles per hour) on a paved level surface.”

Mark downs are partially what caused SVB to spiral.
Charts That Capture How the World Is Changing
I think no one has bothered with using as many images as documents used to train GPT-3.5, to create as big of a model, and then RLHF as done to produce ChatGPT from GPT-3.5 is why image models haven’t surpassed language models.

At any level of scale of model and scale of training set, images models do surpass language models.

The class version is the most straight forward by a wide margin compared to either React function components or Solid functions.

Dan Abramov wrote a great explanation a few years ago about an important difference between classes and functions for components, and a particular feature of classes that makes it harder to work with them at scale - prop capturing. https://overreacted.io/how-are-function-components-different... It's worth reading if you think classes are more straightforward.
Awesome, another Chrome-only API. They sure are embracing and extending the web!
I think there's a misunderstanding here. I'm not only saying "use JSON schema files to define your expected payloads", I'm also saying, "use one of the existing JSON schema validators for your programming language". For most programming languages there's a library for that.
So, if you don't need to write any code anymore that "respects that schema", the whole discussion becomes kind of obsolete.
This is a different lunar lander than you are maybe thinking. It looks more like SpaceX's Starship than an Apollo lunar module. I don't think it has been made into a gym env yet but that would be great if it is!
I think a lot people in the U.S. see our car-oriented culture as clearly just the natural way of doing things, and see places like Amsterdam as more 'unnatural'. I don't think most people realize what a historical accident it is, stemming from a confluence of factors:

- Cars becoming affordable right about the same time as the U.S. was experiencing the postwar boom. If they had stayed too expensive cities might have expanded rail and other transport methods more in the postwar boom years.

- New construction methods allowing the building of certain styles of single family houses cheaply arose around the same time

- Several Supreme Court decisions like the banning of red-lining and the banning of public school segregation causes a lot of white people to move to more-expensive car-dependent suburbs as a way of preserving their ability to live in a segregated neighborhood. The GI bill was also structured in a way to exclude most African Americans from being able to buy homes. The resulting flight of wealthier white folks causes urban decay which causes more white flight to car-dependent suburbs.

- After initial suburbs were built out, the FHA set up regulations that made it more difficult to build suburbs that weren't car-dependent.

- Planners like Robert Moses hadn't been able to see the space inefficiency of when you have a huge network of suburbs trying to commute into cities via cars. Additionally, induced demand meant that highways into dense cities quickly fill up to capacity compared to more efficient methods of transport like trains or buses.

- The federal government went along with the car-dependent vision promoted by planners, partially because it hadn't been demonstrated yet. The costs of building car infrastructure and suburbs were heavily subsidized by the federal government. Maintenance costs are mostly localized, but not expansion, which encouraged more expansion of the suburbs to get more tax revenue from property taxes until maintenance bills come due and the cycle begins again (see strongtowns.org to read more about this phenomenon).

- As white people moved to the suburbs and drove personal cars, public transport became seen as something only poor-black people would do

- Alternatives like biking became dangerous because of all the fast-moving cars and not as practical in spread-out suburbs

- Status quo bias sets in, so we keep doubling down on existing patterns of development

I'm sure there are a lot of other factors that I am forgetting, but the US wasn't built for cars just because there was a lot of 'empty space' or whatever people like to say.
> I could be convinced to commute to a satellite office

I tried this approach. I worked from a satellite with affordable housing, good schools. I had a <10 minute commute between my garage to my desk during peak traffic. I did not like it. Now, I would only entertain the idea of working out of a HQ. The satellite office provided many of the disadvantages of working in an office (open office floorplan, being forced into close proximity with that one annoying coworker, shared kitchen space) while being isolated from other teams and upper management. Those that worked at HQ saw more promotions, had better opportunities for internal mobility, and were taken more seriously inside the company. Going to HQ is fantastic for those career oriented. For everyone else WFH is the way.
I've been on both sides of this fence, decades writing C before I wrote any Rust - and no, IMNSHO the Yak barbering necessary is much more extensive and annoying with zero terminated strings.

The on-disk fixed size structure stuff is actually nicer in a language that favours slices, because with C-strings we're incurring a special case, what happens when the sub-structure is full? With slices that's just fine, but with zero termination that's not a valid string (because the sentinel is missing) and so you have to decide what to do about that.
I mostly have to work without RTK, and I still prefer that old Redux over anything else. The boilerplate is mostly just thinking clearly about state changes, and if you avoid that too much (in any framework) you get into trouble.

Each has a different mental model and as Evan You said, the host language itself is not suited for a "pure" FP approach and you end up with a leaky abstraction.

As the article states, function closures are how classes are actually implemented in JavaScript so rather than mash the two together, it would seem a more cohesive mental model to simply use a class.

If you step back and look at the broader landscape of UI across desktop (Windows, Mac, Linux), devices (iOS, Android), and web: how many libraries and toolkits are FP and how many are OOP in their abstraction when it comes to managing components and object instances?

I started school in the early 80s, and was walking or riding my bike to school by myself/with friends in the first grade. This went on through the kidnapping hysteria of the time, so it's just weird to me.

The way it works is they dismiss class in groups of a few teachers at a time, and there are supervising adults at the pick-up places who watch the kids.

Personally I think it's terrible for the development of their independence. Maybe Gen-X and some millennials had too much independence, but it seems like the pendulum has swung far too much to the opposite side.

Talking to People about Nuclear Power, Stage 1
#1: “What doesn’t kill you makes you weaker,” or the idea that exposure to offensive or difficult ideas is traumatic. The problem with this idea is that Haidt and Lukianoff are wrong. Most of the time, harmful things do make you weaker, which is why we try to avoid being harmed.

Isn't it Wilson classifying "offensive or difficult ideas" as "harmful", not Haidt and Lukianoff?

This approach urged by Haidt and Lukianoff is purely emotional reasoning: You’re not being racist unless you feel racist, that is, you intend to be racist. This standard of trusting the offender’s feelings in every case is deeply misguided.

This kind of thing seems emblematic of a problem we have in our culture where "racism" is a umbrella term that covers a lot of things which are related to each other only in their outcome, not in their nature or in the nature of the minds of the people perpetrating them. I think it would be more accurate and more productive if we stopped behaving as if all type of race-adjacent mistakes were the same thing. You hating all black people because you were mugged and an algorithm giving black people inferior loan interest rates are both race-related errors but approaching them as being the same thing seems very counterproductive, just as lumping the ignorant and the malicious into the same category is counterproductive.

Show HN: Integrations hero, Say goodbye to paid tier of app automation tools
Hi HN,

I built integrations-hero.live that centralize in one place all the apps supported by data integrations software. Currently, contains all apps from Zapier, make (formerly Intergromat), pipedream.

The idea comes from my frustration of losing time bouncing between different integration tools to see if an app is supported or not. This is because there is no integration tool that supports all apps triggers & actions + don't want to get paid tier of these tools to have more workflows.

With integrations-hero.live, all you need to do is to enter the app name on search, then you will get integrations tools as rows. Each row will contain triggers/actions supported + direct link to the integration page: https://wtf.roflcopter.fr/pics/LhOoRD4q/REtdFaQ0.gif

The frontend is based on seatable.io external apps while the database is a CSV file built from scraping and/or reverse engineer API from Zapier, Make, Pipedream integrations page.

The current data shown are from extraction on March 02, I planned to do a monthly update + add n8n and possibly heavy data integrations app like Airbyte ...

Checkout the app https://integrations-hero.live/external-apps/73e39b93-22f2-4... and let me know your suggestions, feedbacks, comments.

I have found the book "The Secrets of Dance Music production" [0] published by Attack Magazine very nice to read with many anecdotes on how to produce. It is focused on dance music as the name suggests.
Additionally, Adam Neely's YouTube channel [1] has many infotainment videos about music, music theory, composing, etc. pick any videl where the title seems interesting, they're all well-produced and comprehensive for the general public.

Hardware these days is really good.

People have this illusion that servers are extremely hard to maintain because big companies constantly have to maintain their 1000s, and because clouds are incentivized to sell this lie.

It would still be a huge cost saving and trivial for them to contract someone to maintain the servers for like 1 hour a month with emergency on-call. Of which there are numerous such people who are not me.

When assets << liabilities nobody wants to buy the bank. Especially when you don't get any time to do due diligence.

This isn't just a liquidity problem, this is a solvency problem. The bonds they have aren't temporarily worth less because nobody wants to buy them, the bonds are liquid and have a fair market value based on the current interest rate environment.

Your cash isn't at the bank anymore. Your cash has been invested in bonds and those bonds are now worth less than the number you see in your bank account. That's bad.
I'm excited about Carp's comprehensive and well documented[1] interoperability with C, which unlocks lots of potential for interfacing with existing libraries.

You mean wealthy capital owners who want to erase people’s natural affection for their own culture and communities so they can freely sourcing fungible labor from anywhere in the world? Yeah, there is a propaganda effort on that front.

That said, I think in the long run people see through propaganda and correctly perceive their own self interest. Knowledge workers in NYC and SV are following their own self interest in aligning themselves with global capital on the immigration issue—they benefit from a globalized economy with free movement of labor—while plumbers in Iowa are acting in their self interest to opposite it.

interesting take on microaggressions

"Haidt and Lukianoff claim, “If you bump into someone by accident and never meant them any harm, it is not an act of aggression, although the other person may misperceive it as one.”(40) That’s obviously wrong. Consider this example: a guy at a concert physically pushes his way through the crowd to get to the front. Is he being aggressive when he bumps into people? The answer should be easy: Yes. But Haidt and Lukianoff argue that the answer is subjective based on the emotions of the guy. If he intended to be aggressive, then it’s aggressive. But if he’s an oblivious asshole, then it’s not aggressive. And this same standard could apply to other topics. If a man harasses someone, then it can’t be harassment unless it was intended to be harassing. Their subjective “intent” standard relies on the emotions of the offender (“intent”) to be the sole determinant of what has happened. The notion that there is no such thing as unintentional racism or sexism strikes me as shockingly ignorant."

var arr = std.mem.zeroes([30_000]u8);

P.S: Not a loop. The implementation of std.mem.zeroes for an non-sentineled array is:

return [_]info.child{zeroes(info.child)} ** info.len;

Which in this case will be equivalent to:

return [_]u8{0} ** 30_000;

Which uses the comptime-only `*` operator to expand the single-item u8 array with value 0 into an array of 30k 0s.
