SEEKING WORK | Remote | Germany / Europe

As a full-stack developer, my focus is on delivering end-to-end web applications. I bring over a decade of experience building both new applications from the ground up and working on existing projects. I thrive working in small teams, but I can also independently develop complete applications.

I am particularly well-suited to projects that require rapid delivery of a Proof of Concept or Minimum Viable Product. Additionally, I excel at end-to-end application development, crafting custom UI/UX components, and migrating projects to SvelteKit.

Tech: SvelteKit, Svelte, Typescript, Javascript, Tailwind CSS, Node.js, Docker, Prisma, PostgreSQL, SQLite

I'm also interested in React and Vue Projects.

Is a Mach-9 sonic boom 9x (or sth proportionally) greater than a Mach-1 boom?

Also, I bet the tickets will either be 0, because there's a non-zero probability you will burn up mid-flight, or really expensive, because maybe that money helps peel the risk onion.

Unless the "jet" is "non-conventional propulsion"...

Show HN: LLM.Report – A free OpenAI API analytics dashboard
Hi!

My OpenAI costs started going up recently and I hated how I couldn't figure out which model was costing me more?

The OpenAI usage page (https://platform.openai.com/account/usage) gives a nice overall breakdown, but it doesn't go into detail about cost / model, token usage, and # requests.

So I reverse engineered their API to make a better dashboard, and then made it free to use.

Try it out and let me know what you think. Also please tell me what other features you wish existed here https://platform.openai.com/account/usage but doesn't yet.
1.75 to 2% below market, not 2%. Nobody is giving out 2% loans right now haha
I’m not saying the future android would be based on ChatGPT. I’m suggesting it could be based on a model of computation whose capabilities and limitations could be unforeseen and unintuitive to us, in the same way as ChatGPT is something completely different compared to the symbolic fact-based AI systems of decades past.

Someone from the past whose idea of AI is Prolog would have a hard time understanding ChatGPT only based on interactions with it.
To put it another way, you believe that a welfare maximizing equilibrium can not only be achieved in principle, but is routinely achieved in practice with minimal friction?

This is difficult to believe. I think everyone sees signs all around them of foolish decisions by firm principals that hamper consumer and worker welfare even in the short term, to say nothing of the effect of various kinds of hysteresis on the long term development path of economies (e.g. detaching people from the labor market in a manner that undermines their health, currency of their skills, etc.)

Rust's Most Unrecognized Contributor (2021)
> If you're pissing off Facebook, you're probably doing something right.

I generally agree.

FWIW, I just listened to an interesting CoRecursive interview with Facebook's Jason Gauci (February 2021) [0]. He addresses that question head-on at this point [1] in the interview.

P.S. I don't listen to many podcasts, but CoRecursive is great. I highly recommend other software developers check it out.

I've heard it called the Kiss of Death when general managers or owners publicly say similar things about their coaches.
I'd say Facebook was on-the-whole good when it was limited to .edu users.

It had a purpose, it solved it better than previous options, and (critically!) it had a ceiling on total addressable userbase.

Once it metastisized into "extract maximum revenue from maximum number of people," I think its soul was lost to greed.
I think a lot of people dont bother getting their own laptop and are then in a bad spot. That said thats their own bed made.
So because of some bullshit, trifling adolescent inconveniences you had with cash, you now neatly enclose yourself off into a categorical belief that cash "has no place" in society. Never mind how the prepaid cards you speak of only encourage more parasitic fees and costs to the most basic aspects of living for poor people, or how the fundamental privacy of paying for daily things without having all your choices registered and judged by cold, remote, closed systems is something to applaud. But none of those matter details right? The important thing for how the world should work is your own little bubble of personal comfort.

A rather disgusting number of people on this site share these kinds of narrowly elitist ideas of how the world should work, based purely on their own privileged experiences and notions.
Can we make congressmen actually read the bills they vote on?
That misses the forest for the trees without any of those. You still penalize low and middle income drivers and miss the people who disregard the social contract the most.
That reduces but doesn’t eliminate this preference. A private company going public in 1 months is still one month where you have less liquidity than investing in a public company for that month. Everything else being equal liquidity makes public companies more attractive.
After looking at it, I am concerned it is not possible for a clean experience. We have to give guidance and samples and we have to choose a way of referencing methods in those. Having ambiguous approaches is a bit rough. We may have to just move to expressions.
Yes, I read the statement as Shopify having too many managers and is weighting their layoffs to address that ratio (as well as generally pruning "side quests").

> too many and you add heavy layers of process, approvals, meetings and… side quests (emphasis mine)

and

> A more fit for purpose Shopify centered on its main quest has less scope creep, fewer meetings, and more shipping great features for our merchants. (emphasis mine)
> ...Wait, so you thought there was ever a point when "good for Facebook" == "good for society"?

At least for a subset, 2005-2006, back when they had network pages. You'd gain access based on your email's domain, it has a shared calendar and worked as a planning location for everyone at the same college/university.
But local nightly news programs often don't post the entire program. Even if they post segments I have found that stories from a few years ago have missing video. If archive.org doesn't have it then it is gone.
Agreed. I subscribe to a jazz magazine partly for the ads - I want to know about album releases and jazz festivals. Maybe FB has improved in the years since I deleted my account but I never received ads as relevant to my interests as what I see in magazines.
I don't know about a minimum but I think 10 is a good upper limit.

Unrelated, I think that we should stop calling workers individual contributors. I think "workers" is a more fitting description.

"Individual contributor" makes the worker seem smaller and less impactful, as if management is contributing in a way that's superior and bigger than the individual. In reality, only the workers work, and managers manage, doing less work the higher up on the ladder they go.

Don't believe me? Here's a list of CEOs that somehow managed to be CEO of multiple companies at once.

- Jack Dorsey

- Jeff Bezos

- Elon Musk

- Carlos Ghosn

And yet, my employer forbids me from having more than one day job.
"This user has not posted anything yet."
Oh, the irony...
But why did the CEO hire all these useless people in the first place if they are so competent? Why did it take until now to fire them?
By now, per 1960s futurisms, the sky was suppose to be populated by aircrafts like this. But back then they had no concern about the damage these could cause. Seems in many areas ecological damage is still no a concern.

But, I guess this plane will be just for the use of billionares. I am sure the one-way cost will be more than what hundreds of people earn in 1 year in a western country, if it becomes available.
"Don’t merge. Rebase only. Keep a linear history."

Oh well.
Note that much of that trail is still closed from the 2020 CZU fire (basically all the sections in Big Basin - about 12 miles).
Regulators should not procrastinate as this only prolongs the agony and the multifaceted damage. Damage to society as it has no protection against such hyperscale, algorithmic, private-data slurping intermediaries. Financial and economic damage as the entire tech sector, while predictably lured by the abnormal profitability of adtech, is long-term undermined by a business model that may actually have no right to exist in a decent, democratic society.

llama 7b in full precision requires 28GB of GPU ram. I know little about AI. Can I estimate that a 770 model takes ~2.8GB? It means vast devices can run the model locally.
I think Pale Fire is one of the weirdest and coolest books I have ever read and I think about it quite often. Sometimes art pieces break the mold of the medium, broadening what it means to be a game or a movie and I think Pale Fire does this for books. I am not super well read, but I do read and this book does multiple things that I have never seen anywhere else.

I actually only read it after seeing it in Blade Runner 2049 and hearing about Ryan Gosling having selected it himself in a making of video or something. It's very cool the blog post provides some more background on the connection.
This particular kind is easy to explain an answer for - not cheap/easy/etc enough.

6 axis are quite common, and getting every more common
They were always used, but are now like, not the price of a house in the bay area for a reasonable one.

It's rare to need a lot beyond that for say, production line manufacturing for a wood processing plant.

Everything is already in line, etc.

They can lift and move things, spray finish, you name it.

Most of the time is programming.

The arms can be fast and accurate.

Now, the more general kind of warehouse work, like people walking around shelving things, that's harder - you get into issues around size of motors, actuation accuracy, etc.

In lots of cases it's easier to design a warehouse around robot capability than design robots around warehouse structure.

Unless there are dramatic breakthroughs, you will see arms and such get used more and more at places with less money and lower margins (IE random metal/wood shop) well before full on bipedal/quadruped robots.

Or you know, people will use the arms as novelties to smack the person who broke the build in the exact center of the back of their head with a precise amount of force.

Both seem equally likely ;)

> There is no objective basis on which to claim crypto mining is more harmful than any other non-essential behavior.

It generates demand for finite electrical resources that have a net negative externality on the climate. https://www.whitehouse.gov/ostp/news-updates/2022/09/08/fact.... The argument "But people would be using the electricity for something else if not for crypto" is unsupported; given the uniquely mobile and speculative nature of proof-of-work crypto, it is creating an environment to tap gas wells that would otherwise stay shuttered and increase the rate of the climate slide.

While it is perhaps no more harmful than any other non-essential behavior, it's the non-essential behavior that's driving demand to burn fossil fuels. You put taxes where human behavior is, not where it isn't.

Yep, kind of hard to keep up the facade when you can ”do everything right” and still be unemployed and poor.
Once again a company that prides itself on being a follower rather than a leader. It drives me insane

>Our numbers were unhealthy, just like it is in much of the tech industry.

Ok, can we consider this in your compensation discussions this year? That you mindlessly followed the crowd and left your company structurally weak? Or do we think you're going to shoot for record compensation this year?
You gotta love it when a site called "techfreedom" black holes Tor exit node IPs. I can only access this site through web proxies.
The headline here is the government of the United States has alleged that Meta has violated an existing privacy order severely enough that they should not be allowed to retain data on children at all, that they've lied to parents about what they are doing with their kids data, and that bugs or mistakenly applied product features had enabled kids to message with strangers despite promises that the product was not able to do that.

Interestingly enough, that is in fact basically what the first few paragraphs of the article say pretty clearly. How this kind of headline exists in a tech driven publication who knows right.
I kinda thought about making "monolithic lambda", where there is just interface to get the request, respond to request, logging, and maybe some queue to talk with other components, for some of my personal tools.

Basically cut down the cruft when deploying another small self-contained feature but still keep the code running (savings of few MB memory are meanigless if you just have few dozen features that might run at the same time anyway).

Then I realized it's basically reinventing the ancient idea of "application server" like JBoss and EJB... which is kinda the case for lambda anyway.
Show HN: We built a device that makes our iPhones tools again
Hey HN - we're two lifelong friends who just graduated college, and we built a device to help us use our iPhones more intentionally.

We realized how much smartphones negatively impact so many of our daily experiences with constant notifications and temptations to scroll. We tried out the existing solutions, but nothing was quite right (software-only solutions were too easy to bypass, and getting a flip phone was a bit too hardcore).

We've been spending the last few months building a physical "key" for distractions on our iPhones. We taught ourselves Swift to develop the app, and we purchased an Ender 3 3D printer to print out prototypes of the actual device.

The website linked has a video showing how it works. We've been using it for awhile now and it's been super helpful; we'd love to hear your feedback on what could make it better. Also, we have a handful of prototypes that we'd be happy to send to people willing to try it out.
Exactly, and startup costs have been dropping like a stone.

No-one owes anyone a living, but you don’t need anybody’s permission either.

A clear complexity cost difficulty in extending these libraries. This separation force libraries to become huge complex monoliths. In Julia the equivalent is done with absolutely hilariously tiny libraries. In fact they are so small that many Python guys exploring Julia decide to not explore further thinking most of the Julia ML libraries aren't done or have barely started.

They are just not accustomed to seeing libraries being that small. That is possible in Julia because it is all native Julia code which means interfacing with other Julia code works seamless and allows you to mix and match many small libraries very easily. You can reuse much more functionality which means individual libraries can be kept very small.

For PyTorch and TensorFlow e.g. activation functions have to be coded specifically into each library. In Julia these can just be reused for any library. Each ML library doesn't need to reimplement activation functions.

That is why you get these bloated monoliths. They have to reinvent the wheel over and over again. So yeah there is a cost which is constantly paid.

Every time you need to extend these libraries with some functionality you are paying a much higher price than when you do the same with Julia.
It seems like your linked example is of a 'high-risk' business similar in risk to pornhub, casino websites, etc.

It doesn't seem like the OP's business falls into that category.
Technically all of these protocols are bit-banging once you get low enough in the stack -- it's just that the PIO is particularly well tuned for arbitrary protocol implementation.

I've been doing some research on early 90s videogame industry and so much of the stuff on early websites is just gone because it was before archive.org started or it was things like proto-podcasts recorded to real audio that archive.org didn't capture.

That's OK, they can plug in and update during the annual service.

You can find plenty of pro porn propaganda out there too. They want to fill the channels with, at least, uncertainty.

But use your own brain and human experience. Do many women you know celebrate porn use by their husbands/boyfriends? That it doesn't bother them at all?

I don't need a study to tell me a hot stove burns.

It effects your relationship even if you successfully keep it hidden. You can't hide the effects, particularly how you objectify the women about you. It's so common lots of people think this is normal. It's not normal, it's not good, and it causes unhappiness in a woman that wants to be really loved. Her. Not her body. Not that image you saw or that video you watched in your mind while you are with her so you can sustain an erection. Just, her.

But you won't be able to give that to her. We men often natter on about the emotional sensitivities or frailties of women when they complain about things we think we are doing right. But there is something missing and she feels it. This is squelching the voice that is trying to lead you to do better, be better. To be a source of warmth, love and happiness instead of a cold stone that gets off to equally cold sex objects.

I can definitely relate. I started using Angularjs around version 1.1 and remember being completely flummoxed at the error "Unknown provider: $providerProvider <- $provider". Debugging that left such bad taste in my mouth that I probably will never try Angular.

Angularjs did get better after 1.5 (when they added components and one-way binding), but IMO the model is still fundamentally broken. Vue fits my mental model much better and is much better documented; if I were to start a new project today, that's probably what I would reach for.

That would have been my preference as well. Either force it to be (void*)0 or, maybe, allow it to be 0 iff it has the same size and parameter passing method.
I visited a friend a couple of years ago. His son was about 3, and they put on a movie while he was eating dinner. The kid’s fork had food on it and it froze halfway to his mouth while he watched the movie. He held it there for half an hour or something, hovering in the air while his eyes were glued to the screen.

Do you think kids are smart enough to understand advertising? Or resist the temptations they bring?

Personally I think all advertising targeted at children should be banned completely. Little Jimmy doesn’t need to be bombarded with ads for Peppa Pig merch. Especially if those ads are targeted just for him. Gross!
Interestingly, it was actually his original idea for VALIS, and wasn't published until after his death. He scrapped the original idea when he decided to make VALIS much more directly about himself and his experiences.

...but in typical PKD fashion, it gets weird, because he adapted the rough plot of Radio Free Albemuth into the book VALIS as a fictional movie called VALIS.
