Hi, hi. VC, founder, and advisor here. Built & reviewed 100s of pitch decks and it's surprising to see how many startups get it wrong. So, I created a guided template that focuses on must-have slides, content placement, and avoiding common mistakes, with detailed commentary. If you're interested, let me know and we can discuss a fair way to share it. Cheers!
I think you're a little off on the alternative ticket pricing. I just checked New York red bulls and two tickets all in start at $74. Not including parking and getting there. Similarly when I looked at concert tickets they are never $15.

Movies are also located in metro areas so easier to get to, are more flexible with times and showing and overall a more comfortable experience especially with a family. I think $20 per person for an afternoon is still competitive as a leisure activity.

I know Hetzner doesn't have physical servers in the US (yet)

This was more a question of "why physical" and "why in the US" :)
> Most people use some map navigation system these days in their phones as well as all sorts of other info they access related to spatial information on their phones anymore.

That's certainly cool, but I don't think most folks would call it VR. Not even 10-20 years ago.
> Now, I don't think advertisers 'd be very happy if Google counted simply downloading the ad as an impression :)

That's how it's been done for years, and verified with tracking pixel from a third-party to correlate numbers. I used to work at a startup in the ad space ages ago and most third-parties were on block lists, we weren't. So we couldn't get paid for real impressions because the numbers didn't add up.

How would a site confidently verify that a video was actually played as opposed to simply downloaded? The path of least resistance is good enough, and Google is Google, advertisers do what they say. If they're unhappy is there even a way to let them know?
I'm not sure exactly what you mean by metacognition, but I suspect you mean something that I think is critical - the ability to watch itself think.

That is, humans can sense the surrounding world. (Some people call that sentience.) Humans can think about what they sense, organize it, categorize it, find patterns, think both inductively and deductively. (Some people call that sapience.) But humans can do something else - as they think, they can observe their own thinking, and then think about that. "How do I reason? Why did I decide that? How do I determine what evidence is accurate?" I don't know if "metacognition" the the word that people use for that, but it's part of what I think AGI is.
The post says there's a huge difference between GPT-4 and ChatGPT? But which version of ChatGPT?
Agreed on the confusing page. I use notebooks every single day but a quick glance at the README gave me zero indication of this being something I need
Tell HN: We should start to add “ai.txt” as we do for “robots.txt”
I started to add an ai.txt to my projects. The file is just a basic text file with some useful info about the website like what it is about, when was it published, the author, etc etc.

It can be great if the website somehow ends up in a training dataset (who knows), and it can be super helpful for AI website crawlers, instead of using thousands of tokens to know what your website is about, they can do it with just a few hundred.
Are there any rules about drone footage retention? Ie- for review that the combatants weren't surrendering, that prohibited weapons weren't used, etc.

Using makeshift implements in war doesn't exempt them from humanitarian law, and from some of the most popular clips, the attacks seemed to target the sleeping or wounded, and people who are fleeing.

While I'm glad this war isn't being as censored as US military actions, I also haven't had much luck locating informed discussion on topics re: IHL.
Yes? Do you just accept blanket claims like that without thought?
I was more going for "why physical" and "why in the US" :)

I feel this release might finally make Julia worth considering again. Previously loading time for something as simple as opening a csv and plotting it was a deal breaker.
Emergencies and wars are bad for démocraties. The question is how fast and bad you come out of them.

Societies stood, jails are not flooded with opponents, I get the weekly interview of an antivax/covidsceptic/whatever on the radio because they're on the "right" political team, the governments are paying the political prices of their handling in the ballot boxes.

This is not perfect and never was meant to. Sorry if you were told otherwise.

Tides turn. People you agree with will be in the ruling majority some day. This will hurt even more ;)
> Nothing saves you from kill -9, as we all know.

True, but it doesn't have to be you who does the cleanup. You could create a background process and establish a temporary UNIX socket connection, so when the parent dies, the socket closes and the child process cleans up everything.
>> There are likely more people tracking the completion of work, than those doing work.

I completely agree. I interviewed there and above a certain level all they really want is the ability to bargain with others for resources if you or your own people can't get something done or done on time. It's not a bad thing, it's just the entire focus at that level, which leads to more chiefs than indians.

I think it stems from interdependence of components and the huge supply chain. You can't miss or it impacts the model year changeover. IMHO they need to work on that so they can have more incremental change if needed.
This is surprisingly detailed! I didn't expect there to be such nice animations and for there to be an emoji panel in the messaging app.

It's interesting that they're using Safari's “add to Home Screen” feature so they can use fullscreen. I think that might be why that's the only browser which is supported.

In a roundabout way it would have good side effects if the UK blocks Wikipedia since it would encourage more people to get VPNs. The more that people learn to protect their identity, the better.

That said, I do agree children should not be accessing adult sites, but that burden should primarily be on the parents.
> How would that look like? How would you reason that it is actually unexploitable?

For use-after-free to be exploitable, by definition an attacker must be able to put arbitrary content at the memory region. This is not always easy: may require certain [mis]configuration, data layout and so on.

> practically every bug that is related to memory management tends to blow up right into your face, at the most inconvenient time possible.

I will not contest this claim, however there is a difference between "blow up" and "exploit". Malicious packet being able to segfault a server is one thing, malicious packet resulting in RCE is quite another. This may be a lost in translation moment when under colloquial use "exploit" does not include DoS.

There's a lot to do in most cities, even. I think you could spend all your free time exploring, e.g., London and you'd be good for a few years worth.
Short stroke in a SSD era is more about trying to keep your data within a page of a SSD. Depending on the flash drive you are using the controller may or may not do some of it for you. One of the easiest perf gains I can sometimes get from a program that is write intensive is to put a small amount of write buffer into the mix. Depending on your OS that can help a lot too. Basically keep my code out of the kernel and off the bus and keep the write block to something that closely resembles what the drive considers a block. If you are doing a bunch of small 8 byte writes randomly in your file you probably are having a bad time as you may quickly exceed the amount of buffer the drive has for that sort of thing. It will start backing you off which bleeds up into the kernel space then very quickly into your program. Keeping them together can help, as you found out.

I see this sort of issue in a lot of programs. As it is a dead easy problem to make in your program. You need to write something out you just splat it out somewhere. With a dozens 1/4/8/16 byte writes instead of one big write. Basically not thinking about how that data is getting into your files. Most of the time that is just fine and not that big of a deal. But as your data set grows or you want better perf you have to worry about it. I usually use something like filemon and can see what is going on. You can see the pattern where there will be a large stack of I/O with hundreds of very small read and writes. While SSDs are an order of magnitude faster than the older drives. They still have their command structure and kernel context switching you have to deal with. You in some cases want to minimize that as it can become a large portion of writing and reading data. As with most optimizations (in this case the drive is faster) we just moved where the bottleneck is (to the kernel and bus typically).
How did they make it soooo crisp and native looking???

Simple logic. Guns are manufactured outside of the US throughout the entirety of Central and South America, and can be made extremely cheaply using simple parts from a home improvement store. The only way to remove guns from criminals hands is to completely block all border movement to/from Mexico and ban all Home Depots and related stores federally.

> united states… #1 in mass shootings

More information required. Considering we’re only 32nd highest in the world for gun crime[0], I highly doubt we have less annual incidents than Venezuela and El Salvador. Especially since according to my research only 12 countries have recorded mass shootings[1], most of which contain extensive gun control. Thus without mass killings to compare it to, and lacking information of countries with similar/worse rates of gun homicides, makes “mass shootings” a flawed metric used only to push narratives.

I wonder what the economics are of the boutique theatres in places like Portland and Berlin. Berlin seems to have several dozen independent cinemas - all radically different (although many are part of the York Kino group). These go all the way from tiny neighbourhood (kiez) cinemas that are a few couches arranged around a 10 foot screen, to enormous screens in iconic buildings. There are also Summer Kinos, giant semi-permanent outdoor screens that show films in woodland and urban settings within the city. It's an incredible part of Berlin life. Oh and they all serve wine, beer and radler, plus usually a variety of branded sweets. Ticket prices are usually under 10 euro too.

There are of course lots of multi-plex type cinemas in Berlin too, and they're just as trashy as those in the rest of Europe and the US. But they seem comparatively less popular.

> Humans can't lift fifty times their own weight.

Ants can do it as a consequence of their size. Relative lifting strength drops fast with increased size. Conversely, an ant scaled to human size would collapse under its own weight and cook itself to death - waste heat generation scales with volume (~ size³), while waste heat rejection scales with surface area (~ size²).

And it ain't a cognitive achievement anyway.

> Humans can't communicate in real-time with pheromones alone.

Yes. Because it's not as useful at our scale, nor is it real-time - chemical communication works better for small organisms and small volumes of living, as the travel speed and dissipation rate of pheromones is independent of organisms emitting them. Meanwhile, we have multiple ways of communicating real-time, some of which work at light speed which is the definition of "real time" (light speed in vacuum being the speed of causality itself).

> Most humans do not know how to build their own home.

Neither do ants.

> An ant might well consider us backwards, not advanced.

An ant can't consider us anything. The point I'm trying to get across is, just because the ant colony is capable of surprisingly high sophistication, doesn't mean the individual ants are.

As a counterpoint that's actually cognitive in nature: AFAIK individuals of many (most?) ant species can be easily tricked into following each other in a circle, and they will continue to do so until they start dying from starvation. This is because the ant isn't making a decision following a complex thought process - it's executing a simple algorithm, that works well in nature because nature is chaotic enough that stable ant circles are unlikely to form (and when they do, they're unlikely to be left undisturbed for long).

These personal reasons would always exist. I’m curious about the justification they would provide to the rest of the world about why they intervened? That gives the moral basis for their use of power. I personally think, even if good rewards existed without a justification to provide that is consistent with their morality/ history of the country it would be very hard for the military to depose a government like they do in Pakistan. Though I suppose now that it has happened so many times in Pakistan, there is good precedent and this justification is less necessary.

> The assumption that people from the LGBT+ community must be of certain political beliefs is in itself prejudice.

this is an assumption you made, if anybody did, as I did not

> People don't have to do what you believe is best for them.

I didn't claim otherwise here, either

you seem extremely confused at what I said, so please re-read it, because I literally didn't mention political beliefs or forcing people to accept what's best for them at all

perhaps you're upset that such people are choosing for themselves to avoid right-wing hate, and you don't like their reasoning (they don't want to be restricted / harassed / threatened / murdered by right-wingers) ?

we can't be surprised there, given said right-wingers don't care about politics when they're mowing people down with a range rover on a sidewalk, or in a shopping mall with a gun, just for looking different than them

BTW, you never explained why you felt the comment about privilege was wrong.

> Linux was an insignificant percentage of their user base but a majority of their support tickets.

It may be majority of their support tickets, since many ports are a pretty crappy job. Does it start up? Let's ship it and call it a day. Sometimes not even that (see also Witcher 2 for Linux drama).

For many projects, if they would provide the same quality/effort for their majority platform, whey would go under.
If you have four of five sklearn tiles that take 20 minute to an hour to execute, you might not want to do that too often.

I did not use jupiter notebook/jupyterLab much, but each time, it was in the context of datascience. The first was on an OCR during my internship, the second for data exploration (mix of quantitative/qualitative, but the project was scrapped after a week or two). In both case, having to re-run all each time the kernel was shut down was actually a pain point.

Theaters as we knew them do appear to be dead. I don't think I've gone to see a movie since Covid and when I drive past theaters I don't see a lot of cars in the parking lots.

I don't think there's been anything showing though that I've wanted to see in a long time. Hollywood gets the blame for that.

Cost to see a movie is also a big issue.

It feels like the small theaters though are making a come back. I see plenty of "art house" theaters in Kansas City ... even a drive-in or two are appearing. These surely don't require the high-end playback equipment and tend to, IMHO, show better and more varied content.
A better idea along the same lines: RFC 5785.

Show HN: ChattySurvey – Super easy AI powered conversational surveys
My name is Richard D'Lonesteen I'm the CTO of ChattySurvey. This is the 6th startup idea I'm working on in the last 12 months. In a way, it was born because of the pain of doing MOM tests and understanding how tricky it can be to create good surveys and conduct them without falling for the flattery trap.
We are building perhaps the simplest to create surveys in the world(let me know if I'm wrong). Currently, you can get super powerful(NPS, CSAT, PMF etc..) surveys just by filling out 1 text field with the name of the subject.

We are leveraging GPT to conduct the surveys and analyse them. And so far it's doing an unbelievable job, but don't take my word for it - check it out!

We are looking for pilot users and problems that we can help to solve!

Thank you!

> I have no desire to run "quickly" for such a distance

Don't run it "quickly" then. I know a bunch of people who are normally in the 5:30-6:15 range for a marathon (and several of them are well into the multi-100s of marathons run). If you have "6 hour" runs[1] near you, they're probably a good option for working up to / slowly doing a marathon.

[1] Run as many laps as you want in 6 hours. Handy for slow marathons because you know there'll be people around for at least 7 hours. Handy for bailing at a half / 10k / etc. since you can't DNF after you've done one lap.

The Key to Securing Your Small Business in Today's Cyber Landscape
In today's digital age, small businesses face an ever-evolving threat from cybercriminals. And while many entrepreneurs believe their company is too small to be targeted, the reality is that no business is immune to attack. That's why it's crucial for small business owners to implement effective security measures such as Attack Surface Management (ASM) or Cyber Exposure Management to safeguard their assets and customer data from cyber threats.
