What do you think about MikroTik hEX S Gigabit Ethernet Router (https://www.amazon.in/MikroTik-Gigabit-Ethernet-Router-RB760...) is it worth giving a try?
It's worth knowing just how unregulated the whole "adventure tourism" industry is. You might be not in the wealth bracket for Titanic tours, but there are more reasonably priced "adventurous" things you could do and it is worth being aware that nobody seems to be checking if these things are safe.

They really do. They've taken a whack for some of the recent games they've put out, and the pressure is on for them to deliver with the likes of Starfield and a continuation of Halo Infinite.

But overall, the service is fantasic. I get Forza, Halo, Madden, FIFA, a ton of indies, old Xbox and Xbox360 titles, and more all with a kickass multiplayer service across all games for $11-17 bucks a month. In the advent of $70 games, that's a great deal.

Long may it continue. I really like MSFT's strategy in the gaming sector, and while I hope the Activision acquisition goes through, I have a feeling MSFT will be quite well off if the deal is off.

I am extremely skeptical of someone who claims this ability in themselves or others. What this tells me is that someone is misjudging a lot of circumstances very confidently. You just can't understand people on a snap judgment, there are too many outliers.

Imagine if we applied this kind of thinking in courts. We would convict a lot of innocent people. We wouldn't feel that we need to wait for all the facts and evidence to come in, because our radar for people is so good. We don't do it that way, because it's nonsense.
I have travelled through Europe quite extensively. IMO cheap flights like Ryanair and Wizz beat train hands down - pricewise especially if you are carrying light luggage and also because most airports are now connected from city center by train in Europe (something which is a huge issue in US making you rely on your own transport or taxi.)

It sounds like you found the best ink for your needs! All consumers should have that choice rather than be locked into OEM ink via firmware restrictions.

In terms of the quality of third-party ink, your experience isn't entirely uncommon. Some folks have great experiences, some don't. There's a lot of variability by brand. For aesthetic/craft printing, that variability might not be tolerable.

The biggest problem I had researching consumer tips for inkjet ink is that there are NO universal quality standards for third-party brands. Other consumer groups like Consumer Reports don't test third-party ink because the industry is too volatile. The market is confusing, which is a shame. The industry rumor is that the remanufacturing trade group is implementing a certification system at some point, which is sorely needed.

Your confusing simple punishment with the concept of Deterrents.

Deterrents do have an effect but only to a point, with further escalation beyond that point also escalating the severity of associated offences.

Eg - if you have a death sentence for minor theft then those who are desperate will still steal but instead of giving up peacefully when caught they will murder as many as the need to get away.

Deterrents and punishment schemes can most definitely, and many currently do, cause more harms than benefits.

Words like "social" and "culture" and a ton of other now-taboo hiring ideas throughout this writeup. I wonder how much YC has changed over the last few years with regards to how it uses nebulous hiring practices like "someone's gut feeling" to reject or accept candidates. I also wonder what YCs diversity numbers look like.

JS discarding extra positional arguments (and that being leveraged in map and similar methods) seems to be the unique bit. I don’t think any other popular language does that.

Tending to provide solutions as well as the tradeoffs tends to be better accepted. Saying we need to replace all the existing HW, but then it will work once we buy a billion dollars of AWS leaves the decision to people who are paid to make such decisions.

I've been there, I worked for a place that wanted to copy a competitors feature set with myself and a couple other programmers, when the competitor had a team of like 200 people working on the same thing. My response was basically, look I might be able to get a prototype in a year or two, but no guarantees on stability, feature set, etc. If we hire a half dozen people, it might be done in two years, but its going to take them 6 months to become productive and then your going to still be missing X, Y, Z.

And I assumed that would kill it, but you know I ended up spending a year working on a prototype by myself anyway. Which was "fun" and I learned a lot, but was a giant opportunity lost for the business because it turns out a half ass prototype can't compete with a solid polished product in POCs.

edit: This isn't to say "i was right" because in that case the right decision was probably to hire the extra people and make a significant move into that market, given the state of the existing product which died just a couple years later. But the business people didn't or couldn't expend the resources to make us competitive. So, they were probably hoping for a miracle, which many were delivered but a bunch of small miracles doesn't equal a big one.
What do you mean "little or no change in performance since the 90s"? Computers now are hundreds if not thousands of times faster than in the 90s.

Also, if anything, modern desktop hardware is so complex not because of centralization, but because of decentralization. If your computer was made by a single manufacturer, that manufacturer could optimize the final product as much as it wanted, because it'd have control not only of each component, but of the communication between each pair of components. It'd only need to make sure that the programming interface remained the same, so that the software could still function. Because different companies make your CPU, your motherboard, your storage, your memory, etc. and they all have to agree on some protocol so the parts can talk to each other, each manufacturer focuses their optimization efforts on the part that they manufacture, irrespective of what the rest of the system is doing. That's how you get SSDs running garbage collectors, GPUs with little operating systems, motherboards with little operating systems, etc.

I used to agree with you but it's getting out of hand these companies have more control than most states and governments over our communication, privacy, money, and general lives but we don't get to vote in who is running them. I'd rather start shooting and ask questions later before we get consumed by these behemoths. We need another Teddy Roosevelt and another antitrust sweep up in my opinion.

Pesticide is not fertilizer.

But your point is valid. I have a cousin that farmed in the mid 20th century when they used chemicals like DDT on the farm. He is alive, but his body is falling apart. He is lucky that he switched to commercial/retail rather than trying to tough out a farmer’s life in his 80s.
That's a good point, I'm guessing the bigger issue is that the chamber pressure is 1/3 of the Raptor 2's (100 bar vs 300 bar), which I assume means much lower ISP and therefore fuel efficiency, and therefore cargo lifting capacity after carrying additional necessary fuel.
Thanks for posting this. I always wondered why Jessica wasn't a bigger part of the YC story that so many people told.

This line stood out to me in particular: _It's not just because she's shy that she hates attention, but because it throws off the Social Radar. She can't be herself. You can't watch people when everyone is watching you._

No matter what you get acknowledged for I think it's so important to always be yourself but to know what makes you strong is so challenging.

Is there something specific here that's not just toggling the scroll direction to the right value in window's settings menu? It's had it for years at this point.

> I can certainly see the switching cost not being worth it and wanting a setting that applies to the mouse and not the touchpad, but I'm failing to see how it's anything other than a switching cost.

For me at least, you're fighting against decades of habitual usage. I have a mental model for how I expect my controls to work. I could switch - but I see zero value in doing so (what's the upside?) and a whole lot of wasted effort.

It's like a controller - Inverted exists. I understand that some folks like it. There are rare cases (usually when controlling an aircraft) in games when I might choose to use it. But by far and large... I just do not want an inverted controller. It's making me think harder for zero net benefit (and much worse in game results...).

Why would C# or Java make things “very slow”? The code ends up running as well-optimized machine code for the majority of its lifetime.
> No other language does this.

Every language that supports default and variable arguments does this. This includes Python, C, and C++ and has absolutely zero to do with "loose typing" in this case.
It's concerning the level of handwaving people do by pointing to a specification and showing how this is in accordance with it. This is not a normal way for a language to behave which is why it gets this attention. Languages shouldn't get people to accept their flaws people should push to resolve the flaws in languages.

I don't doubt Jessica is good at reading people, but I found out during hiring people is that it is the easiest/cheapest skill to hire. I am honestly curious about why pg skipped the most frequently asked question: Would Jessica be close to this level of successful if she was not his wife?

Also I would be very curious to know about female founders that Jessica selected. According to [1], companies with at least 1 female founder has <10% of valuation compared to YC companies with all male founders[2]. Just on casual looking all female founder companies is <2% compared to all male founder companies, which is below average for VCs.

What's confusing/surprising is that it is different than map in many (most?) other languages with a map implementation. Like in Python it would be:

map(some_fun, iterable, *iterables)

`some_fun` would have arity 1 or 1 + len(iterables) and be called only with the values of the passed in iterables, not the enumerated indexes or the original iterables or whatever. To get an equivalent, you'd add in an iterable that corresponded to the indexes explicitly. Same thing with Rust with its `enumerate` which would produce a sequence of pairs `(index, original_item)`. And those aren't atypical when examining `map` in other languages.

There can be no answer. Research is ongoing, smart people are actively trying to make optimizer better, so even if I gave a 100% correct answer now (which would be pages long), a new commit 1 minute latter will change the rules. Sometimes someone discovers what we thought was safe isn't safe in some obscure case and so we are forced to no longer apply some optimization. sometimes optimization is a compromise and we decide that the using a couple extra CPU cycles is worth it because of some other gain (a CPU cycle is often impossible to measure in the real world as things like caches tend to dominate benchmarks, so you can make this comprise many times when suddenly the total adds up to something you can measure.).

The short answer for those who don't want details: it is unlikely you can measure a difference in real world code assuming good clean code with the right algorithm.

> I'm shocked this isn't being done already.

What's more shocking is why it wasn't being done.

> Why not talk about more concrete reasons that controlled burns are good without appealing to it being opposite of racists?

We are talking concrete reasons. We have to first understand the concrete reasons why it wasn't being done already first. You yourself said it is shocking. Don't you want to know why? What were the reasons against controlled burn? Then we can figure out if we should do it. Just because the concrete reasons upset you doesn't mean they aren't worthy of being discussed.

There are many things to be upset about. I don't think controlled burns are it.
I know a family from Oxford County that left around 1900. First lose the farm, move to the Coast, split up after that. My impression is that the fields are very low yield compared to the massive acres to the East. Once they were connected by rail, a lot of history stopped right there. I resent the word "hobby" though, since it is essentially living on the land in some way, with a time frame that allows for raising children. The urban centers are the end of the line even for modern people.
Corporate farms seem inevitable, even if they aren't desirable. How does it make sense to put the burden of managing fluctuations in costs and yields on a single person or family, farming in a single area? The financial side alone must be complicated enough to be a full-time job. Then you have the questions of predicting demand for different crops, staying up-to-date with farming techniques for different crops, organic and other certifications, learning different techniques and products as the climate changes, hiring and managing labor, managing employee benefits, how could a single person do all that and still do a competitive job compared to a company with specialists handling all of those roles, not to mention that they can hedge against fluctuations in local conditions by diversifying across geographic areas?

Imagine trying to succeed as a one-person company against Google or Amazon in the production of a literal commodity.

To be clear, I'm talking about the following:

I can write some code or use modules written in JavaScript that compile to WASM. I can use that compiled output with any runtime that can import WASM and expose its interface natively. To that end, I could use it in Rust, no problem.

The same is in reverse. I can write a Rust program, compile to WASM, and use it in JS runtime (lots of projects do this already, actually. esbuild does this with Go as well).

Right Now there are of course limitations, however if current trajectory holds, you'll be able to just import wasm directly into a compat runtime. So I can take the JS to WASM output and share it to any language to can understand it.

This is, as I understand it, the advantage of WASM in the future tense (and if you use JavaScript, its kind of present tense, esp. with import assertions)
It won't get worse, that was my point.

Like normal 3D printers, they are slow, but the benefits are, that you can change the design quickly and improve it - and then in the end you can invest into optimizing production with a different manufacturing process.
