Wait, I have a few CDs that are "FDIC insured", according to Fidelity, offered by banks I absolutely don't know. In fact, that's the reason I choose them over Treasuries, which are not FDIC insured. Is my money safe or could it be a fraud like FTX? I learned to trust Fidelity over the years, maybe now is the time to be less complacent.
I highly doubt Taiwan would let TSMC evacuate their technical teams in the event of a possible conflict. TSMC's IP is one of Taiwan's biggest assets that keeps them from being taken over and I don't think Taiwan would let TSMC remove it from the playing field.
Cost to orbit isn't the only issue, maybe as part of building something else but actually shipping 100 people to Mars on Starship is wildly impractical. First big hurdle is actually getting the Eyes Wide Shut refueling to work and you have to do it multiple times for each Starship you're sending. Then there's not that much space in the upper stage of Starships to pack that many people and several months worth of food. It's approaching possible but you'd be jammed in like cordwood not having the time of your life in a big open atrium.

> It's literally the worst deal you can take

I joined a YC company as a 1st employee (and also did YC as a founder).

I agree working at an early stage (especially < 10 person) startup is a terrible idea if you're looking for stability, consistency, high pay, etc.

But (depending on the company size and the founders) it can also be an amazing crash course in how to build a company if you aspire to build your own company one day.

Being part of a tiny startup gives you visibility into things that work (and more importantly, things that don't work) when you go on to start your own company one day.

If starting your own company is what you aspire to do, joining a very small startup is a free way to learn a lot of lessons about how (and how not to) run/build a company. For some people that can be priceless. For others, it's not.

I also think there's a good argument to be made for working in Big Tech for a few years (e.g. maximize salary potential) if you aspire to start a company, especially if you don't have savings to fall back on.

It really depends what you're optimizing for.

Edit: FWIW, I was definitely underpaid by the YC startup as a 1st employee and didn't make any money on stock options and worked crazy hours with barely any vacation time. But I learned so much during those 2 years. It was an amazing way to see first hand how companies thrive or fail - it's way better to learn the hard lessons as an employee via observation compared to as a founder making the mistakes first-hand. It was also exciting and fun. The one fear I have is that this experience may not be reproducible in a remote setting. Almost all of what I learned by being an early employee at a YC company were things I observed sitting in the same room as the founders 10 hours a day (as a developer). I don't think it would have been nearly as rewarding if I had been working remote the whole time.
Strong disagree. I bought an OP-1 and it felt like a cheap plastic toy. It's a cool UX concept and I'm glad they exist, but I wasn't impressed. Give me a (relatively) cheap Yamaha or Roland or Nord keyboard any day of the week (and if you want ultra-portability, then put an app on an iPad).

I'm conflicted; on the one hand I would like to let the world know about it, but on the other I can see how it would be easily dismissed as useless when there's literally no docs about it.

>Being angry from news like this isn't a bad thing. You SHOULD be angry.

Why?

What are you going to do?

Just get high off the dopamine drip fed by social media rage cycles? Angry rants on Twitter? Maybe start a Youtube channel and make a buck or two with banal political essays?

Recognize that the news is designed to make you angry because that anger prevents you from taking any form of effective action, it misdirects your energy and consumes your focus. It is a means of control, leading you to confuse catharsis with praxis.

By all means, be concerned about the world, injustice, social inequality, etc. There is a lot to be concerned about. But anger - much less the indignant virtue signaling anger you're displaying here, is a waste of time.
Ask HN: The myth of the data driven leader
Is it just me, or "taking data driven decisions" is just a way to not take responsibilities?

This is what typically happens in my team: team leader calls a meeting, in which a few ideas are proposed, let's call them A, B, and C. Of course, for none of them we have data to decide which one to pick.

Team leader ends the meeting and says: let's decide another day, let's sit on it.

One week later, team leader announces that he picked option A because "We don't have enough data to back option B and C"... But we don't have data even for option A, so why invoking the "data driven selection"?

It's now years that this kind of approach keeps happening, and I don't know if I should just jump ship or bear with it (FAANG salary).

Is this data driven decision making? I hope not! How should it look like? What can I bring forward to encourage a mindset change?
I’ve had the same thought. These are typically small enough projects that a single person can build and copy them.
Well said. Would like to see an economic / accountant analysis of this.
Agree that the risk is overblown. Apart from the sometimes frantic pace, startups also have more flexibility for different personalities. In a small company things aren't standardized and there's room for uniqueness.

#4 to me is uncertain. I view startup equity as slightly better than a lottery ticket, but unlikely to beat RSUs in a public company unless you get super lucky.
Reliability surely? They still haven't managed to make a model that says "I don't know" rather than bullshitting. That's by far the biggest unsolved problem.

That I readily believe. But in a well designed system (designed for longevity) you'd never see such discharge currents in a sustained manner and even short bursts are better served by capacitors (charged at a lower constant current) close to the consumer than by batteries. And that's why you'll see voltage regulators and large banks of capacitors right next to the CPU (besides compensation for line losses and stability of the supply, which with rapid wide load variations would cause all kinds of problems for the logic).

But in for instance a vehicle or an e-bike you'd rarely see batteries drained faster than the spec, not if you want to use your expensive device for a while.
Most people have Expectations about the way things work - code in a text editor, write tests, run them. Check code into Github. Go to a website to find documentation.

Pharo defies all of those conventions (well, maybe not Github, but even that is unusual). People just aren't accustomed to in-IDE tutorials. It doesn't even occur to people that such things might exist.

It's hard to notice that which you never even imagined possible.

I agree that having an emotional response can help trigger societal change but it’s important to distinguish emotion that comes from within you after seeing information and you being fed content that is intentionally emotionally triggering. I agree that injustice shouldn’t be ignored but letting people think and feel it for themselves can be more powerful and impactful long term than being force-fed what to feel, which can result in people not fully realizing what they’re supporting and also moving on to the next thing that comes up.
Oh, if you then switch to the comma-style for viewBox, drop the / from the path tag, and drop the quotes from the style attributes, that takes it down to 109.

Safari, Chrome, and Firefox are all perfectly happy with it but then rsvg-convert chokes on all of those changes. 114 is probably the best that can be done and still be "conforming" (for want of a better word.)
I've found that by caring about the product, I can deliver higher quality results and charge a premium rate for doing it. Additionally, the quality of the work leads to good reviews and referrals, increasing demand (and lowering cost of sales) which ultimately increases my rate / profit.
Rinsing them is absolutely fine. The "food science" recommendation around cooking mushrooms has changed in the last few years. Many cooks are seeing good results by starting to sautee the mushrooms in water and only cooking with oil once the water has boiled off. This enables the air pockets to collapse and for a lot of the moisture to evaporate so you end up needing significantly less fats. I've switched to this method myself, and I've been very happy with the results.

I don't think we should blame Matrix for trying to get funding for their open source project, but it's also hard to blame everyone's reaction after such bad wording. Even marketing that their technology is used by governments is understandable - it does mean something. But it's no excuse for answering good-faith users in this way.
I find it fascinating that Europeans are so enamored with Facebook that they choose it over Apple. I don't expect this attitude to become normal in the US anytime soon, if ever. The FB brand is becoming toxic.
I think the cards should just be what the post is, not a description of it. The descriptions (a) are hard to pattern match quickly and (b) the creators value judgments are inserted (for instance “ethnic slur” is ambiguous in many real cases, eg negro could be legit in a spanish-speaking or referencing context, or “white trash” which could both be a slur and the title of an edgy Vice documentary). In my experience the moderator personality types have actual blind spots in their biases around political topics (the misinformation, harassment, hate speech categories). They seem entirely unaware that had they lived 10 years earlier they would have completely different metrics.

That said, one important takeaway I got is that moderation needs priorities. While I’m thinking for 15s about whether a review about a herbal health product is “medically misleading” I have CSAM in the queue right after.

Wife is from UK, but we're in the US now. She's got some friends/family there, and we keep up with some news/sports/TV from the UK regularly. Have watched some recent reports about how dire some things have gotten over the last year or two. Things are 'bad' all over, but the UK seems to have been hit doubly/triply hard compared to some neighbors, esp with energy prices. Unsure how much brexit is a root cause, but between brexit/covid/ukraine, UK seems to be in a bad spot. Sorry you're dealing with so much that's beyond your control. I completely get this is well beyond "don't eat out as much" territory.
It's basically a reference implementation. Their library should not do any work other than marshal data. Kind of like how Amazon produces a command line tool to interact with their API, but you don't have to use it. It's just a lot easier.

Which is why promoting a new competing and incompatible protocol is a good way to push for change.

> I’ve also seem my share of “ERROR 1071 (42000) at line xxx: Specified key was too long; max key length is xxx bytes” randomly that basically means the machine needs manual recovery.

What? This error has nothing to do with upgrades, nothing to do with manual recovery, and hasn't been a common problem for many many years.

In old versions of MySQL, it just meant you needed to configure a few things to increase the InnoDB index limit to 3072 bytes, instead of the older limit of 767 bytes:

innodb_file_per_table=ON
innodb_large_prefix=ON
innodb_file_format=barracuda

and then ensure the table's row_format is DYNAMIC or COMPRESSED.

But again, all of this happens by default in all modern versions of MySQL and MariaDB.

Should it have been the defaults much earlier? Absolutely yes, MySQL used to have bad defaults. It doesn't anymore.
Funnily, at least in Europe, it's very dynamic the other way. Rarely heard of an employer refusing someone to go to 50-80%.

Again, what is this thing you are trying to compare? I just see MariaDB and MariaDB =)

While I don't agree that quality is in any way declining, I do understand the move is easier. Europeans are in love with Facebook, not Apple. Makes it easier to switch device platforms, for sure.

True. It's also true that most children aren't neglected. The point I'm trying to make is most people raise most children decently in most circumstances. That you don't need to be rich to do so.

It's a bit like scripting in python vs C on limiting hardware. Even some people with fresh EE degree struggle with this. Modern design often heavily focuses on simulation and reusing the company's IP blocks. Companies try to push for this approach despite the inefficiencies exactly because they can then hire those fresh "unripe" engineers. Old-school engineers almost always come up with better ad-hoc circuit designs trough.

If you live near a university, you can probably sit in on lectures (analog-design, analog circuits, microelectronics). There are also many videos on YouTube. (If you're not really interested in repairs, skip those as that is slightly different skillset.) One really good channel is Sam Ben Yaakov's https://www.youtube.com/@sambenyaakov

Developing a mental model of circuits also takes practice. The practice can mean simulation or playing with an oscilloscope and components on a breadboard but you need the feedback loop: designing/tweaking the circuit, checking if the behavior matches your expectation, finding what you missed if there's something wrong. Start with simple circuits and gradually work your way up to more complex ones.
> They are still letting you use the software you choose.

At the moment, yes.

My point was primarily about the fact that giving the customer an option to use Android software of their choice on recent Pixel phones is currently fully up to the manufacturer. Phoning in is merely a tool to achieve it.

> possibly changes who you can interact with

I am aware that identifying customers who have requested to have this option can potentially be used to mistreat them. Many mobile apps today are already trying to perform a similar form of identification. They check for non-OEM software or root access. If they detect something they do not like, they show warnings or refuse to provide some functionality. But that is, I think, another topic.
> You are insinuating physical violence (I will assume) which is never acceptable.

I mean, the guy stole about more than ten thousand dollars from me. I wouldn't actually hurt him, I was engaging in a bit of hyperbole (which I feel you're deliberately refusing to understand), but fundamentally I am not going to lose a ton of sleep if something bad happens to SBF.

> and further SBF had no control over this: 'because this all unfolded right after I got fired from my last job, when I really needed my liquid money to pay for things like "my mortgage" and "food".'

No, but it is why I am especially upset over this stuff. If it had happened when I was gainfully employed at the time I would obviously be upset to have thirteen grand stolen from me, but it especially hurt because I was a victim of all the layoffs that happened last year. I didn't claim there was some divine rationality, which I also think you are deliberately not understanding.

> Having all your eggs (or no eggs) in one basket can and does lead often to disaster.
> Sorry for the harsh way of putting this. What you are indicating is that you had no cushion

In the post that you are responding to, I mention that I did have a cushion, and I didn't put all my eggs in one basket. I had a fair bit of stock and ETFs. I had to sell in a down market, so that wasn't fun, but I feel like you didn't finish reading the post.

> Also crypto can and does lose value unlike money in a bank. Even if you had been able to get 7% return if crypto loses value you lose money

This was GUSD, which was ostensibly pegged 1-to-1 to the US dollar, so it wasn't supposed to be able to "lose value" in any substantial way.

That may be poorly phrased way of saying, "people will vote for someone else". Erdogan (AKP) polls around 46%. K10u (CHP) polls around 50%. Ince was (2018) previously the CHP candidate in 2018.

I don't know anything about Turkey but unless Ogan's platform was "Erdogan isn't doing enough dictating", it's hard to picture his voters all going to AKP.
I was just doing some bit shifting yesterday. I wanted to pass a drawing function a Uint16 that would represent a 4x4 black and white pixel pattern. It was a little hack to create early MacOS-like pixel patterns in SDL. SDL has primitives for line and rectangle drawing with solid colors but little else.

So I wrote some straight C, some nested for loops for row/column of the area to be patterned. I used row % 4, column % 4 to map to the appropriate bit within the Uint16 "pattern". Some bit shifting, masking and I knew whether to fill the pixel with foreground or background colors.

I always enjoy bitwise operations. (There's I guess the classic programmer problem of swapping the values of two numbers in two registers in place.)
