Exactly right. If you own the business, all of the jobs in it are yours. You can hire people to help you do them, but they're yours in the end.

The other thing people often fail to take into account (particularly in software) is that outside of VC-backed startups, the smart owner will spend a significant period of time making little to nothing from their business.

In my last successful startup, I made minimum wage computed on a 40 hour workweek (although I worked twice that much) for about 4 years. I was the lowest-paid person on the payroll by a significant margin.

You make up for it in the long term if the business succeeds, but you have to be willing and able to weather a period of little to no income in the meantime.

A properly-stored crypto cold wallet is a safe place for pretty much any amount of money. Most people here tell me I don't need that because banks are safe and secure and backed by the might of the US government.
It's really weird when that happens. I one time was driving to visit colleges in Maine. In the mountains 3 hours from any ocean was 100 year old 40ish foot wooden Ketch. I of course was the only one that noticed the boat.
About a month later a friend sent me a video of guys pouring a wooden keel in western Mass. Lo behold they were using the boat I saw for a new boat they were building.

Shell scripting's best kept secret is babashka (https://babashka.org/).

- It's a flavor of Lisp (Clojure, specifically), a language whose flexibility makes it ideally suited for gluing together programs and working with data

- Compare to alternative scripting shells, babashka is very pragmatic and 100% production ready today, as it's built on top of Java, GraalVM and Clojure

- Even though it's Java under the hood, it's FAST (`time bb -e '(+ 1 1)' -> 0.014 ms)

- Support for filesystem operations (e.g. globbing) is as good or better than Bash

- Working with subprocesses is better than in bash, because there are fewer gotchas

- Piping is easier in bash, but most of the time you _don't_ really want to use pipes. `cat /etc/fstab | grep /usr` should be a set of function calls, not subprocesses

Give it a try, you won't regret it

Good point.

<< It's just kind of a LARP of "old school" and "minimalistic", which is fine. Just let's not pretend there's some practical benefit.

Hmm. Like with most things, there are benefits and drawbacks to this approach, but outright dismissal as 'LARP' is, at best, uncharitable. Are you sure you cannot come up with at least one good practical reason?
If you get set up with a good legal firm they'll point you in the right direction. A lot of people who get ripped off got tied up in some shady dealings but a good attorney will not only have connections, they'll keep you with people who pass the sniff test.
But nvme has lower latency than SATA. A ram disk over SATA just doesn't make sense.

It's a quirky twist on a portfolio site, that's it. The implementation is novel and interesting. People liked it, and upvoted it. I think that's all there is to it.
These types of solutions were usually targeted at enterprise customers who had heavy random read and write workloads that needed to be non-volatile. The disks usually had a battery with enough life to dump the data to persistent storage in the case of a reboot or power outage. For example if you had need to continuously update a bloom filter for some reason.

They have been mostly displaced by enterprise SSD based drives that have high IOPs or big data solutions with transaction logs and distributed reads and writes.
I don't expect everyone to essentially game FDIC insurance. And not sure if that is even possible or wanted.

But doesn't mean it is unreasonable to expect people with this level of cash funds not to have more than one egg basket. Split it in two, three or four. One goes down, you still have money locked up but can use other accounts to take care daily operations and possibly mitigate some of the issues.
I can definitely see advantages for very specific use cases in favor of bare metal colo. But AWS does provide a good amount of value in flexibility and reliability. If you have a whole lot of bandwidth or storage needs you should probably look at a hybrid system. But you will probably pay for it with increased engineering and maintenance costs.
Another interesting thing is that the farther you go from the CPU cache, the more copies of data and the more extra processing you have to do.

Think of how many copies of the data you need (and how much processing it takes) to use:

- a L3 CPU cache.

- a 16GB RAM cache.

- an embedded C/Rust/Go SQLite database.

- a distributed, fault tolerant Cassandra/elastic cache cluster.

You can literally solve the same typeahead/autocomplete/user lookup/session management/etc.. features using the last three of these - but the CPU cycle, memory usage and latency costs (plus complexity) explodes.

I'm always impressed by people that handle 1 million connections on a single box while I'm watching teams trying to handle a thousand connections with a whole fleet of infrastructure and caching layers.

Then again, part of the issue is the wrong language and wrong designs patterns. Highly optimized Rust and Go someone obsessed on all weekend is going to shred your team's unoptimized vanilla Ruby or Java install you didn't even have time to write tests for and don't honestly care about because you're too worried about being laid off.

> If a law makes you display a banner, it’s that law’s fault that the banner exists

You're treating the surveillance activity as a constant. One could also just stop surveilling, and then one wouldn't need to display a banner either.

What you're saying is akin to saying that the law makes muggers wear masks to hide their faces. If you take the mugging activity as a given, and then compare how muggers act with the law to how they would act if robbery weren't illegal, then sure it's technically true. But unless you're making some larger constructive argument, then that characterization isn't particularly enlightening.

> I’m not sure what you mean by imperfect enforcement ... courts that decided those banners are compliant

Can you point me to these court decisions that say putting take-it-or-leave-it nag walls on websites suffices for obtaining consent to process personal information for non-necessary purposes? Because that would seem to run directly counter to the wording of the law.

I spent six years with an entry-level pentium CPU (G4400) in my main (and often only) computer. I also did not use a SSD. It really did make me appreciate programs that make do with less. Moving to a 6C/12T Ryzen with a SSD was amazing, I couldn't believe how quick everything was. Even invoking thunar was appreciably faster, I had no idea I'd been using a "slow" system before.

The Pentium went through a lot; I threw everything I was interested in as a student at it. It even did some 24+ hour encoding jobs, some NN training and some Wii emulation and Wine gaming. Moving to a faster computer with a SSD only really sped up the gaming parts. 95% of my time is spent in my text editor / browser / terminal, and they only really benefit from the SSD, not from higher clock speeds / more cores. Compiling software is much faster, but I don't do it often enough with programs large enough for it to matter.

My desktop never did overheat, though. My laptop doesn't go under 50C without an external cooler.

Hardware support for video codecs is a good reason to upgrade.
Op, you didn't outline your assumptions and we're just trying to be helpful.
So when US helps it’s all for our benefit? Since you are conflating simple facts, and you think it’s so enterprising to fund military spend in Ukraine, why don’t you lots in EU fund that as well? Seems brilliant really.

Let me be clear, NATO doesn’t help the US at all. The only reason why NATO is in place is because without it the Soviets would’ve taken over the entire continent. As evidenced by the past two world wars, Europeans love to start wars they can’t seem to finish. NATO is there because it’s actually cheaper than the alternative for the US which is basically millions of lives to defend foreign land.

Is the SVB situation a death knell for banks?
They would've had to go to 0%. As cormacrelf mentions, short-term treasuries in 2021 were yielding < 0.1%. That's a pretty hard sell when inflation is running 8-9%.

Some banks did exactly that. Even now, when SVB is advertising 4.5% rates on business checking [1], First Republic Bank is offering 0.01% on Business Interest Checking [2]. But note that SVB's failure impacts all sorts of household names like Roku, Roblox, Coinbase, Stripe, while FRB reports that tech is only 4% of their business. Companies that don't offer yield lose out to companies that do in the yield-chasing competitive marketplace.

We're observing some form of anti-survivorship bias, where risky behavior was incentivized by the market, so market participants had to engage or get pushed out of the market, and so now we hear about the risky behavior because that's what failed. We're not talking about banks like FRB or Wells Fargo that offer 0% on their bank accounts.

How we get bipartisan corruption:

• Lack of public financing for political campaigns.

• Lesser of two evils thinking, where each party gives their own politicians a pass because "the other side is worse".

• Corporate consolidation of the news media, where the culture and even the personnel of reporting and politics are interchangeable.

• "Success" (AKA greed is good) as a national ethos, with no pushback from religion, since the dominant US Christianity has somehow (is there anyone more anti-capitalist than Jesus?) been captured by amoral business interests.
Many "semi-ancients" had variable length hours from ancient Egypt right though to about the 14th century. Even after the introduction of mechanical clocks with uniform hours, some systems counted from sunset, not noon.

Eventually the noon reference became fixed upon, but it's only noon because it was easier to measure the shadow in that way. Other than a vague but unfounded sense of aesthetic need and the obsolete practically of synchronization with a sundial, solar noon isn't special.
I'm slowly starting to realize that the WEF (world economic forum) literally has the means to make everyone own nothing. They just cause bank runs at all the banks. Everyone's cash is reset to 0, and FDIC insures the panic is at a minimum.
Unless your questions are rhetorical, I think you're making a mistake in thinking any of these people are asking for certain policies out of any principals beyond their own self-interest.

Nobody is going to market this as a serious proposal. This is an art project.
Probably because those devices are certified with the appropriate agency, while this one is not. At least according to the article.

> Multiple people in Brazil who purchased the Flipper Zero hacking tool have reported that their shipments are being redirected to Brazil's telecommunications agency, Anatel, due to a lack of certification with the country's Radio Frequencies department.

> Because Flipper Devices INC is not certified in Brazil according to this standard, it's not allowed to circulate freely in the Brazilian market.

Makes sense, devices have to be properly certified, if they are not, they're illegal. Seems like it has nothing to do with the "hacking" abilities of the device.
Which do you value more[1] in your jurisdiction: a larger market cap for banks, or having 100% coverage of depositor funds? Its no contest from my point of view.

At this rate, we're all headed for a world without modern banking, caused by modern banking.

if im reading this right, you have extra ram that you dont have dimms for, so youre thinking of interfacing it via sata as a swap. the thing is, ram is much more valuable in a dimm slot, and sata (slow as it is) is much better suited for persistent non volatile storage. so your request is sort of like asking if anyone makes a part for your honda that you can pour jet fuel into but the part will just burn off the excess energy it doesnt need so it drives the same as with regular gas. i would trade the ram for a drive. but purely for fun, you might consider interfacing stuff through as many adapters and interfaces as you can, and make some cool glitch art.
Sounds like a midrange system.
The guy isn’t asking people to believe in him because he is a prophet. They are saying, “this is some things I found suspect, and was right about so maybe this can help you make your own inferences later.”
What would be the advantage of having a SATA drive with DRAM instead of an SSD ?

The only potential advantage I see would be read and write speed, but aren't SSD's already fast enough to saturate the SATA bus ? Isn't that why NVME offers better performance than SATA ?

What is clear is that for equivalent capacity DRAM is much more expensive than an SSD.

My guess is that if no one is making a product like what you are asking about it's because it offers no real advantage over the much cheaper solution of adding another SSD.
Just gotta wait for the comment claiming admin/maintenance costs makes non-cloud more expensive than cloud then we can have yet another full repeat discussion.
My first thought is that someone had created a HN-specific bot network to upvote it. It was annoying useless site without content and couldn't understand how it got to the first page.
This is probably one of the few good things about current meltdown and no low rates. No more silly Peletoneque startups.

edit: for a while anyway
Not to mention that it is almost trivially easy to shop rates/maturities and transact on, e.g., Vanguard. Much easier than opening several accounts.
Very much so. I've learnt over the years that HN folk often regard 60 hour weeks as 'normal' and will defend to the death someone's right to voluntarily crunch even more over a long period of time as long as they get paid.

That's at least my perception of the crowd here, and it puzzles me.
Every piece of hardware was brand new at some time. Sometimes people forget that an old machine was once someone's awesome, fancy, new device. I've known too many people who couldn't articulate why they spent thousands of dollars on something new when their old machine worked perfectly well, but that's OK - most of my hardware I got for free or next to nothing because of this.

Like Drew writes, do I need to play videos that're higher resolution than 1080p on a 17" 1920x1200 display? Nope.
Will try! The image warping was done by an external program. Julia was used just to multiply two matrices of size 3x3 for each image in the collection. Launching the interpreter took almost a whole second, the rest of the computation was instantaneous.
The federal reserve dividends are set by statute and are an unvarying 6%/yr and have been since 1913. So, in this case, the 'fed stakeholders' are the US Congress. Moreover the amount of stock owned by member banks is also set by statute at 6% of the bank's capital plus surplus with the share price set at $100/share also by law. Banks are required by law to buy a certain amount of stock and they can't buy or sell the stock or loan the value of the stock as an asset (hypothocate), except to the fed as their capital goes up and down. All of this makes much more sense if you think of the Federal Reserve Banks as legally mandated bank run insurance providers. See here: https://www.federalreserve.gov/aboutthefed/section5.htm

So yes, the whole purpose of the fed is to ensure that we don't have a systemic, cascading bank failure (keeping musical chairs going). Banking panics and ensuing failures were a widespread problem in the 1800s and early 1900s. The Fed was established after the particularly nasty 1907 banking panic which threatened to bring down most large banks in the US and destroy the national economy. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panic_of_1907
To provide safe haven for the vast majority of people/orgs whose cash assets can fit in that bucket, since there's some scale at which you can't afford the overhead of privately managed risk management (diversification, private insurance, etc). It provides stability on the low end, especially for naive and casual wealth, so that their naivite doesn't cause problems for everyone else.

But above that bucket, people/orgs are expected to know and appropriately manage the risks that they're taking with their money or have the float to pay someone who does.

Experienced money doesn't see large bank deposits as safe by nature because they never have been. It's only people new to wealth and chronically blind to tail risk (hello startup industry!) that assume a $5M portfolio can be treated as casually as their personal checking account.
Jeez, I have a flipper zero and it’s amazingly boring. I use it as a sensor for WiFi to determine strength and other metrics to improve my home WiFi. I used it once to fix a tire sensor, or rather to determine which one was bad. It’s not some hacker tool, it has a bright white case with a fluorescent orange wrap and only useful for debugging and testing things. It’s great, but not dangerous.
Not outright saying it (and not you, your comment was just a place to hang another comment off) but parent comments in this chain saying "people already fall for it" about computer adjusted photos and software might adjust how "red the flowers are" or how "green the grass is", and the parent comment saying "you can turn all this off and get RAWs" - as if they believe there is some objective truth which RAWs capture and which cameras used to show that they now don't show because of software post-processing.

My point is that there never has been, cameras have always let you adjust the shot - including "how red the flowers are" by changing light source, film type, shadows, which contrasting other colours are nearby, etc.

I worked in a kitchen and it is intense grueling work. Everyone drank a lot at a minimum and had plenty of other vices. My coworkers were much more interesting and fun though than most people I’ve worked with in software development since. Even so, I’d probably be an absolute mess today had I stuck with cooking. I’m impressed with anyone who can make it in that biz without going insane.
Why aren't they asking to add another FDIC level with the maximum insured amount at e.g. $5m and increase insurance premiums for banks accordingly? That'd take care of it, if you have $5m in cash and want to put it into a bank account, you just pay more fees, the bank pays a significantly larger insurance premium and everyone lives happily ever after.

This feels like an Ethereum thing. Code is law, but not if it's inconvenient.

The abolition of slavery in Africa is interesting to read about. It was mostly European colonial powers who were trying to end the practice of slavery in Africa, and they often faced a lot of resistance from African leaders.

Ethiopia is an interesting example - since it wasn't colonized in the 1800's, it didn't have colonial rulers who tried to end the practice, so it was one of, if not the, last polities on the continent to end slavery. The League of Nations kept pressuring it to end the institution, and it kept dragging its feet. Slavery was only abolished after Italy invaded and took over the country (Italy used the existence of slavery in Ethiopia as one of the pretexts for the invasion).
