Show HN: Not Another CV
Introducing NotAnotherCV.com - The Tool to Tailor Your CV to Your Dream Job

Have you ever sent out your CV and received no response? It can be frustrating to spend time applying for a job and not get a single call back. The problem might be that your CV is too generic and doesn't highlight your skills and experience that match the specific job requirements.

That's where NotAnotherCV.com comes in. It's a CV management tool that lets you create multiple versions of your CV, each tailored to a specific job or company. You can easily customize your CV for each application, highlighting your relevant skills, experiences, and achievements.

This will help you stand out from other candidates, show the hiring manager that you understand their needs, and increase your chances of getting an interview.

With NotAnotherCV.com, you can save time and effort by embedding your CV on your existing website. Allowing hiring managers who come across your website to download you CV and reach out to you.

I've been working on notanothercv.com for a couple of months and it's been reasonably well received but I was pushed to post here. As such I'd appreciate it if you checked it out.
This is a common fallacy. Modern businesses are enormous and succeed or fail for all sorts of reasons. Trying to figure out who is actually responsible for the success of a company is difficult. Just because a company is successful, doesn't mean every employee of the company is great. It's essential to understand what the dynamics of an industry is in order to understand why a company is successful. In the case of SpaceX there's no doubt there are some people there who are great engineers. But that's probably not why they beat Boeing.
I loved it too, as I loved Idiots.
Honestly the whole fear mongering around AGI is kind of annoying. We are very far away from AGI, and its driving focus away from the main issues that people should be paying attention to.

An AGI, by definition, can start with zero information, and learn on its own. Where are the models for that? The closest thing we have is Mu Zero, but we have to give it an objective function, which destroys the whole idea of AGI in the first place (as it should be able to generate its own objective functions) and it takes a shitload of resources to run for a very limited rule set. Until you have something like this in place, no version of Chat GPT will even come close to AGI. The problems that chat GPTs are solving are turning out to be not as complex as we thought, thats all that the "sparks of AGI" are.

What will happen assuming the current course of iteration on the models is that humanity will get is essentially better and better software that can solve a large range of complex problems. You will have essentially a large body of human knowledge that is compressed in some form, with the ability to interpolate between branches very efficiently. This will create issues because you will now be able to ask multi modal questions like "what do I need to do economically to ensure ultimate compliance of the population?", and the solution will involve things like which government offices to target with what information, generated videos of propaganda, special products that promote addition or some other health changes, e.t.c.

To prepare against this, the solution isn't to lock down the models and hide the key while telling everyone how AGI is going to kill us all, the solution is to allow everyone access to this and let the AIs fight against each other and reach an equilibrium.
"Investment grade" this things usually follow cartoon physics, they are fine and dandy until they look and see they're floating mid-air
Yup. A lot of modern software is beyond parody now: https://twitter.com/cmuratori/status/1640827575437250561?s=2... (the "new and improved" Microsoft Teams takes 9 seconds to display under a kilobyte of text, including 3 seconds to just display a splash screen)
Attacks on Elon has been growing since he started calling out corruption.
My guess is that the issue for support is that it's very much an edge-case, and not something most in support would encounter. The feature is most likely only available do to refurb or transfer inventory across regions.

That being said, the reason it works so poorly might be because there's a lack of continuity within HPs printer line up. For obvious reason I haven't used an HP products in years, but even going back, there seemed to be little lineage within their InkJet printers. The fact that a tools was still available is amazing.
By the time we will be have technology to travel between stars, current starship will be forgotten and name could be reused.
Basically all the named optimisations are to JavaScript execution time not HTML processing, and from reading the details many of them came by trading off memory for runtime speed.
The APIs aren't free. For a large site, creating the embeddings and then serving lots of users would quickly get expensive. Although I do think this is overpriced.
It's very nice to see some progress in this moldy part of a technology junkyard
I don't need to understand the perspective of the protester. I have protested in the past and may do it again in the future if something really bothers me. And, well… I have been part of the violent crowd in a number of occasions, actually, so I happen to know the physical cost of it all.

Protesters may feel that their concerns and actions are justified but that doesn't mean that everyone else must agree with them. That doesn't mean that the targets of their uncontrolled anger must stay passive either. Alice may justifiably be angry about something, but Bob is equally justified in his desire to not have his store's window smashed… and she _must_ acknowledge that symmetry if she doesn't want to be bitten too hard by Bob's reaction to her action.

Protesters are definitely justified in using their right to protest (or fighting for it), but those who don't share their concerns are equally justified in
making contingency plans.
By "driving", you mean "helps create inequality", right? But inequality is already there. Someone now pays that high rent already; otherwise, landlords would lower prices to avoid empty units.

You are competing with many people from all parts of the EU and, to an extent, the world for the same limited resource. Someone who built their startup and banked on it already came to Germany to work and live there because it is a very comfortable place to live. Refugees without any money at all are willing to go to Germany instead of Greece or Italy, not to mention Bulgaria or Hungary.

I am trying to be a devil's advocate now, but landlords are interested in getting paid as much as possible; it is Economy 101, rational agent behavior. Otherwise, it would be a charity, not a business.

I think moving away, or at least moving your business away, is rational behavior on your side. Take a look at said Bulgaria: Sofia is a dull place compared even to smaller German cities. Still, they have 10% flat taxes for companies and individuals, and for 1000 EUR, you will have a 150 sq.m. two-level apart in the historical city center with 3 bedrooms, a separate dining room, and a large study with a real fireplace. They have a subway to the airport and several budget airlines flying from there to any part of the EU. Source: several people from the company I work for are living there.
If you're in the USA, the Rio Grande Valley is pretty cheap. Because it's next to Mexico, there's huge amounts of Latino culture & influence.

If you want to be somewhere that feels on the up & up and has cool stuff, Brownsville has a decent amount of engineers for SpaceX and you can go watch launches from a public beach if you get there early enough.
I agree that it's detached from reality in its absoluteness, but there's nothing particularly left or "woke" about this take. I think you're letting knee-jerk political biases get the better of you.
Yeah, there is some speculation on the no-fins starship - either it's a prototype for the nasa moon starship (which would need no fins as it's never going to be in the atmosphere again), or it will be a disposable one to deliver the first set of v2 starling satellites to orbit, with a better chance of success and payload as it won't have the weight of all that stuff.
Who has so much free time? Easy solution:

- return cartridges since they do not work in "compatible" printer. Consumer laws do not care about small print or region locks

- go to unauthorized shop and have original cartridges refiled. I recycled cartridge like that for several years.
What does "fold" even mean?

Real estate prices are not being artificially elevated, they are a simple function of supply and demand. Just build more houses and prices will do down, and they'll go down slowly, without collapsing.

The typical model works like this: The suburbs around a city grow, the city runs out of space. This causes land in the suburbs to become expensive, so they subdivide lots and build more houses. The suburbs now become the city.

And people move to the edge of the city and create new suburbs, and the city grows.

Of course if you read the propaganda suburbs are evil, but in the real world, they are simply a place where the city will eventually grow to.

Maybe that's the problem? People are actually buying in to the propaganda and not building suburbs, and this breaks the entire model?
I’d say Von Trier was overhyped in my personal echo chamber/network at some point.

I can imagine, GP’s “overhyped” probably means the same thing about this Dogme stuff. Too many information sources (be it some mass media or peers) claim some exceptional quality and GP’s personal opinion digresses.
Man, I’ve been thinking for years that I should re-watch The Boss of it All. IIRC, it was very funny.

Unfortunately not available on streaming anywhere. Hopefully available via “other means”.
Which certain key? It's different per user, so no way to have a common list to exclude.

Anyway, there are other better mechanisms to resolve the conflict instead of crippling the app
I am not an American and I profit from unions over here even if I am not a member of them.

If your unions turn out to be evil, then organize them differently. What will however not work is hoping that governments and industries will protect the rights of employees and workers without them somehow organizing.
There is no possible way to have style without the potential to bother someone. Just write how you feel. If the readers are so offended, they can stop reading. Life will go on.
Alternative interpretation: Many women tolerate abusive relationships because they do not have the means to financially support themselves and their kids. Winning the lottery is a way out.
500 megs for the browser subprocess is also party of the insanity.
I agree that Linux crushed it on the server platforms, but it got better for Linux on the desktop, too: Linux users now have multiple companies specializing in selling computers with Linux pre-installed, staking their brands on the idea that Linux will work well on those systems, as opposed to "it runs but don't expect hibernation to function and you'll need NDISWrapper for WiFi" or some similar list of caveats which always seemed to accompany Linux on most systems where the hardware wasn't hand-picked.

Even Office formats have gotten friendlier, going from explicitly MS-specific stuff like .doc to the Office Open XML file formats, which are, if not easy to parse, at least not the serialization format of a proprietary program.

And, of course, every web browser that's worth a damn treats Linux as a first-class platform. That matters more now than it did in the past.

The world could definitely improve. However, compared to the darkest fantasies someone could reasonably entertain during Ballmer-era Microsoft, we're doing pretty damn good.
Kovid is one of those 10x engineers for me. I love kitty and use it every day, calibre does it job too.

Great, that he tries to make progress in terminal area, that, as for me, is quite archaic as of now.
And for non linear forcing of plasmas… but it’s been many years since my phd
Thank you, I didn't knew you could do that to create new accounts.
Never thought that the solution to America's Military Industrial complex would be McDonalds. Now when the Joint Chiefs talk of megatons they are talking about recruits weight not weapon payload.
From the introduction:

> Recently, plants were also demonstrated to respond to sounds,13,28,29,30 e.g., by changing the expression of specific genes,29,30 or by increasing sugar concentration in their nectar.31 Thus, if plants emit airborne sounds, these sounds can potentially trigger a rapid response in nearby organisms, including both animals and plants.
> LLMs will absolutely increase the capabilities and powers of organizations that use them. I don't think that's debatable.

I very much think that's debatable, but time will tell.
No, it is not surprising. The models have been designed and trained for exactly this behavior.

Also "emergent" does not mean suprising or unexpected. It just means the system has properties that none of its components have. That's it.
> "correct primitives" do not by themselves provide a linear order of events

Review the description of Lamport Causal Clock in the article. Note that it carries “additional info” (additional to the example diagram). This “additional info” is what establishes the structure needed for total order.

> whichever concurrent updates you don't choose are lost, and that violates consistency

They’re not lost! The concurrent updates not chosen are still part of the “list of operations”, but the update to the data/value itself may not be observable if the subsequent update (the update that was sorted to be first) updates the same data/value (eg. both operations update the same key in a key-value structure). If the two operations update different data/value, then both updated values are observable. This isn’t cheating, rather it works exactly as expected: it is eventually consistent.
You can buy Prusa MK3 kits from Aliexpress for half the price of the original. I bought a kit from Prusa and one knockoff from Aliexpress. Parts wise they are 100% the same and perform the exact same way. Do I feel bad about it? Kind of. The Chinese seller certainly did not put R&D into any of it. And being in China makes sourcing much easier.
In Sweden if you move from Stockholm to Eskilstuna (1h30m drive away) you can find a 5 room 100 sqm apartment in the dead center of the town for the price of a 2 room 45-50 sqm apartment in any of the immediate suburbs of Stockholm.

Or, to put it simply, move out of the big city, and the prices drop by a factor of two or more.
This story tells me I made the right decision: Never ever buy a printer. I can print in the library. Since Covid started I needed to do that twice: The first time they had stopped accepting cash because of the infection risk(!). And I loaded 2 Euros on my library card for 10 pages but obviously did not use all of them. The second time they were surprised that I had money on my library card.

To be fair I have printed a couple of times at the office. But I think I have been below 10 pages a year for at least 10 years, office and library combined.

The only case seems to be having to send documents to an authority abroad. That happens to me, but infrequently enough.

Now people might say, do you trust the library with your personal documents? First I don't remember when I had something seriously sensitive. And then I would say do you trust all that closed source software on your own Windows PC? As Linux user I would have probably not even been able to open the secret windows the article described.
I think Songbird was the most consumer facing XUL app that didn’t originate from Mozilla
Native vs. abstracted is hardly an effective indicator for analyzing performance. There are many abstractions that improves performance, a prime example being caches. Even abstractions that can introduce some overhead can improve performance under certain conditions, like virtual memory.

The dichotomy is also too vague a concept to be anywhere useful as a proxy for performance. This very thread is a good example. I don't see how XUL is more "native" than HTML is, but some see otherwise.

The only reliable way to reason about performance is to look at what the code is actually doing.
Plasma 5.27 – Can't say there are many differences, but 'tis ok
First thing I would like to see gone is business bros sharing 'guides' after you follow them, threatening to start charging real soon. Go fuck yourself, get a real job.
Ask HN: Why did YouTube hide the option to sort by oldest?
Why is it failing?

Poor management or not viable?

Vertical farming seems key for our future.
When I see people make comments like that, I always wonder if they've done the maths of dividing the cost of whatever programme by the number of people in the country. Given India's population, it probably wouldn't amount to much per person, even if you could magically give it out.
> you can run Android with a stock Linux kernel

Which is technically true, but in reality no consumer Android device actually does this, so irrelevant.
that was my intuition as well, but it seems pretty obvious by now that the tech is a little harder to reproduce thzn that.

otherwise wouldn't have they already done it by now ?
For the first time, renewable energy generation beat out coal in the US
I've learned to be super careful about what senior people say about other senior people. Because it actually reflects well on you to say nice things about already respected people, it's a free PR boost. It makes them sound generous and also knowledgeable. But, I've seen this happen a lot in big companies, someone will say "Well X is a fantastic engineer" or "X does great work" and my first thought is "Well that's interesting, since you have literally never worked with him, seen anything he's produced and have no engineering knowledge". So actually, whilst it sounds like a good endorsement, what is actually happening is that the person is playing politics. This is especially true when talking about public figures - Sam Altman in his recent interviews has been incredibly diplomatic about Elon, despite the fact that it's pretty public knowledge Elon tried to take over OpenAI and now loudly disparages it. Sam is playing politics, and you have to take that into consideration when thinking about these endorsements. Andrej Karpathy wants to have a good career in Silicon Valley and the way to do that is to gush about how fantastic Elon Musk is.... whilst quietly quitting the company having not delivered what he was working on.
It's not a Linux because consumer devices don't run kernels from kernel.org.

At best it is "based on Linux", or maybe "Linux-compatible".

This is an extremely important distinction, because proprietary kernels and drivers is why you can't install a different Linux distribution on your Samsung or Xiaomi phone.
I feel like your second paragraph undermines the first one.
Why do those brilliant folks praise him?

To stay in his circle of influence or because Elon is indeed a genius even though he doesn’t come across that way.
Well, that’s a Wikipedia article in need of a good editing if I ever saw one. So many language misses.
To all the detractors of work ethic and the supporters of UBI: What freedom will exist in a world where everyone is reliant on their government for survival, and all mass communication is mediated by or written by opaque AIs? In trading the yoke of labor for free time we would also trade our independence, and any hope of changing the structure of power that had been set in place.

I'm so sick of our new style of wannabe rulers/overlords who use the promise of freeing humanity from labor as the appeal to grant them total power. It's an appeal, among other things, to the basest sloth and laziness. "Imagine what you would do if you never had to work" is a daytime talk show hook, and a way to lure people into gambling and playing the lottery and investing in crypto. It's not a revolutionary slogan, it's the oldest con in the book.
That you have more shops than one. More restaurants than one. Theaters. Clubs. Sports. Connectivity. Places and activities for kids. Places for hobbies. Concerts. Other various activities and events.

There are significantly more of each in a big citu.
Most software is poorly optimized for performance, but often optimized quite okay for some other metric, be it a stable release cycle, or cost of maintenance or etc.
Indeed, it hasn't been an issue since the last big war in Europe and we can all see how unlikely such a thing is to happen again and that there's no need to have an insurance policy of any sort.
Surprised no one shared this one yet. In case you've never seen it: https://neal.fun/deep-sea/
This is a technology demonstrator so it makes sense to start with just a drop but looking at the size of the launch vehicle and the parameters tested here, seems like the progress is coming on slow as the article mentions this was first tested in 2016.

I am not very familiar with rockets, so this might be out of ignorance but wouldn't the plane like characteristics of this TD make it hard to use for actual launch rockets as they travel quite a bit up and having the winged body might add extra overhead compared to a cylindrical stage.
Live in peace and harmony is not a good principle for AI?
Not every CPU C runs on has a carry bit. MIPS, SPARC, RISC-V, all don't have the concept of a "carry bit."
> ″Furthermore I swear as a director to refrain from personal taste! I am no longer an artist. I swear to refrain from creating a “work”, as I regard the instant as more important than the whole.

If someone holds to a philosophy where they refrain from creating art, and they create art, is it success or failure?

Depending on availability, there are a couple of NASA assets that may capture the flight of the booster and the re-entry and descent of the second stage.
Just make a huge grid of 4 bit input/4 bit output LUTs, clock them in alternating phases like a chess/checkerboard... you'll never face a race condition. You can route around bad LUTs, and there are a lot of other advantages to this otherwise colossal waste of transistors.

I've had that dumb/good? idea stuck in my brain since reading George Gilder back in 1981.
What’s Linux in Italian? Windows? Does this include language names? Language constructs? Do they accept product or company names or will they all have to be transliterated or have descriptive words attached like Quebec?

Will they then legislate how to greet each other, etc? Far better to distract than dealing with substantive matters.
Science today is exactly like the Catholic Church 500 years ago. We are supposed to worship the Gods of science and listen to everything the priests have to say. I have given up on any reformation coming from the West though because I think it is too corrupt and too powerful and don't see how it can change in the near future. I am hoping it will be from India and/or China when they catch up.
Everyone (to a close approximation) is already reliant on their government for survival. Taking yourself out of society and its interdependencies is already basically impossible. (This is not an argument against all points you are making, I just wanted to say something to that aspect of your comment.)
Why stop there?

Since you believe that human reproduction is a de-facto property of the state, simply calculate how many women should have babies, for optimal society, and force them to?

No need to muck around with some tax incentives. Redistribute the true source "commodity".

As a bonus, if you're high up enough, you might even get to choose who mates with whom.
> LLMs will change all of this

AI ultimately means humans are obsolete. Machines made most physical labor obsolete, AI will make most mental work obsolete eventually.
