Not neccessarily. You do need to download the Threads app and make an account (or rather a sub-account, since it’s tied to your Instagram account).
Not exactly true. They have a read-only browser view.

In fact a Thread thread has already been on the front of HN.

Evernote’s files are `.enex` which is a variation of html.

At least, they used to be. I haven’t checked recently, but this was the case for many years. Don’t know if they’ve changed anything recently.
Time lock puzzle, is that a fancy way of saying proof of work?
In the military a Lieutenant fresh off West Point will be younger than the Sergeant Major who has been in the military for 20 years.

Do you think the Sergeant thinks he's "inferior" or is "humiliated" by the Lieutenant being younger?

In hospitals many nurses have worked there for longer than the freshly graduated Doctor has been out of diapers.

Do the nurses feel humiliated or inferior?

---

People have different areas of expertise, that doesn't make anyone else inferior.

My boss is a woman who's younger than me, but she's fucking amazing at managing projects and keeping developers focused.

I don't feel inferior or humiliated, her expertise is in project management, mine is in software development and infrastructure. The skills are complementary.

I also have a coworker who's barely over 20 and they are a damn wizard with Unity, which I know only the bare minimum of. I'm not humiliated by that either.

I really think you would benefit from talking to a professional about how you see yourself, those kind of feelings aren't healthy and won't be fixed by you "becoming a manager" (which is usually just a ton of stress and managing humans, which is even more stress).
Employee Rating System
Is any company in need of a system that would allow the company to rate its employees so that other firms hiring the candidate can check the reviews before hiring and also can check the authenticity of the resume/previous work experience.
Indeed. If the axe comes down someday, oh well. Till then, it’s an interesting experiment that ultimately no one is harmed by.

Garena being based in Asia also helps quite a lot, since the IP concerns are a bit less. Cross cultural IP wars seem less frequent, and Asian franchises in particular seem a bit less aggressively litigious than English counterparts.

There is a moral aspect to it too. I put a year or so of my life into developing that game. It’s not legally mine to give away, but it’s the only chance the franchise has for survival. So I’ll just be clear about all of the risks (which seem minimal) and everyone can go into it with eyes open.

Ya they have a lot of bugs and issues that they should focus on instead. I get new features can bring new users, but bugs drives away old users.

They should do an even/odd bug fix/new feature release cadence.

> $8 a month is nothing to the majority of adults who would be in the "knowledge worker" category

This is a very US-centric take and almost insulting for people living in certain other areas of the world. In my country (central Europe, as is easy to guess), an experienced teacher (definitely a "knowledge worker" in my book) may earn about $10k per year. Not sure how much a beginner one gets, but surely less. $8 per month is a lot then.
Most podcasts I tried were way longer and less information-dense than the YouTube channels I mentioned. I don't want to listen to 2-hour conversations with content that can effectively be summarized in 10 minutes or less.
Very interesting game =)
A huge fan of Logseq here. I can’t imagine my workflow without it anymore. However, I still can’t have it on mobile because of sync. iCloud is awful, Syncthing doesn’t support mobile.
One of the "fun" things when I worked at a big company was thinking through how to make the very first launched version of something work at millions-of-users scale. There is no organic growth in traffic from zero when a non-negligible subset of billions of active users will try it out right away.

But I think on net it was still an easier problem than scaling a startup product from zero, because the tooling and processes to support huge usage is already so mature at these big companies.
I think my experiences are just very different from yours, but I found that declarative markup was the only sane way to represent visual UI elements. The classic example is using an imperative JS API like element.innerHTML = '...' vs React/Vue/etc, but the same could be said for newer UI APIs, like SwiftUI. I wouldn't call a mobile app's UI layout a document, but I still think the declarative nature of that API is a better fit than its imperative predecessor, UIKit.

Both of those examples have an "escape hatch", where you can drop into an imperative API if you need to, so I can see the argument for them not being a perfect abstraction of the underlying primitives, but that doesn't mean they're not useful and a good fit for the problems they're solving.
The dev was obviously joking. What part of the recording suggests he wasn't? Exact timestamp please because I want to go back and listen to the context around it on my own rather than relying on your self selected soundbites/quotes.

Scaling Transformers to 1B Tokens
It could be the culture that is the problem. Good managers are very accommodating to people of all ages & races. It's tricky to advise without knowing what the hierarchy looks like in your company.

I see some problems, though - why are there no promotion opportunities? Why were you, not promoted & younger people hired from outside? Did you had any discussions with senior management yet & did they give you any feedback?

Usually, mid-size to large tech companies have two career paths. Engineer to Principal OR Engineer to Engineering Manager. Some firms have people like technical leads. First, you want to decide on what path to choose. Both are quite different.
Ask HN: Some .NET domains available but not available
I recently checked all 2 letter/number combinations of .net and discovered crsnic is reporting a bunch of domain names as available but any attempts to register these at a handful of domain registrars report they're not available?

For example;

$ whois -h whois.crsnic.net ye.net
No match for "YE.NET".

When I saw this title, I believed that perhaps they have found a method to detect a Rowhammer attack, which could be used to initiate countermeasures.

Unfortunately no, they have found how to use a Rowhammer attack to obtain a fingerprint of the computer on which it is executed, which can be used to uniquely identify any computer, even among many computers with identical hardware and identical installed software.
Yes. “Install failed with permissions error” or “runs but doesn’t seem to be listening on configured port” at least.
I find the GitLab UI far better than the GitHub UI. Not that they can't be improve, but it just makes sense for me. Especially the code review approval, where its mostly hidden on GitHub but easy to find on GitLab.
It’s not that consumers don’t reward quality. It’s that more consumers reward lower prices, and once outside money is involved you have to chase growth instead of steady profits.

Family owned businesses are often able to maintain very high quality. They’ll just never make enough to satisfy people looking for huge returns, which is nearly anyone who doesn’t have some deeper connection to the company.
Yeah it’s only the first way, since the second is effectively the same as rendering html on the server.

As for the first - it could give a way to use legacy apis and static data. Not sure if I want this in the core, but… how hard can it be?

Stop trying to make social networks succeed
Even if there is an IC track, how viable is it. while management competition is stiff, there still tends to be more opportunities up top than engineers. Sure I could be CTO, but below the CTO there are not many high level engineers before you get to the standard level. There are a lot more opportunities to move up in management. Of course CTO is itself a management job that gives you a little time to look at something technical, and most of the high level technical positions under that are likewise more people jobs than technical.

OK, I'm just old and don't understand the draw of walled-garden social media, but why do people need different walled gardens for (micro)blogs, pictures, and video?

Or, why doesn't Meta make the Facebook platform better at doing the things that Instagram and now Threads do, instead of creating separate platforms for each? If the goal is to get people to sign up and connect with each other, doesn't network theory tell us that one platform with 100% of the users is more valuable than two networks each with 75% of the users and a 50% overlap?

As a user, if you know a bunch of people on one platform, why not just post your text thoughts, pictures, and videos, all to the same place?

OK, maybe your goal is to get as many total people following you as possible, and there are some people on platform A who aren't on platform B, and vice-versa, so you're on both. But why post half your stuff to A and half to B, rather than posting everything to both?
Does syncthing not support iphone? Because on android it works flawlessly.
Your career path's details are crucial to understand your struggles. It seems like you may be confusing the role of a manager—it's more people-focused than technical. If younger superiors bother you, it could indicate a lack of maturity. Feeling "humiliated" suggests self-doubt/self-worth issues. I also question why you want the role so badly? Pay? Recognition? There are other roles higher in tech leadership than just manager.

Their search is pretty bad, agreed (and coming from a GitLab lover that is telling you something).

For example, searching MRs doesn't let you search multiple fields.
Multiple independently created compilers can directly translate source code to unoptimized machine code that works in a completely straightforward fashion based on the definition of the language. There’s a great deal of complexity involved in creating more optimized output, but the goal is to have functionally equivalent programs.

There’s no way to map DALLE prompts into any kind of obvious picture from the input. Even DALLE itself can produce a wide range of outputs from a single input.

Outstanding work, congratulations to the Godot team.
This isn't trivial when you start syncing mobile (now you need an extra app, as onedrive doesn't support local), or onto a work device (where I don't want onedrive installed)

There's work arounds (for example I forgot the name, but one plugin allows you to setup onedrive to share just one folder via logging in on each device), but the syncing story wasn't great. Quite a bit of extra setup across all devices, more points of failure etc.

Hence the smart business model, of let us handle it for you for a small cost.
There are upper technical people who don't have direct reports, but have more pay and responsibility. However there are a lot more in management than those positions in most companies.
I feel like the HN title here is misleading. You can’t delete your Threads profile, you can only delete your Instagram account and your Threads sub-account will follow.

Also this is quite clearly stated inside the Threads app: “Some settings, such as deleting your account, apply to both Threads and Instagram and can be managed on Instagram”.

Deactivating your Threads account, on the other hand, will not affect your Instagram account in any way, this warning is there in the corresponding Settings section as well.
You can’t link to threads? By design?

I was seriously considering trying it out, but if there’s no search engine visibility, there’s no point. Most of the searches for my real name pull up tweets.

Hopefully it’s just a missing feature that will be added later. Even TikToks are linkable, and those have very little google visibility.

Good article.

Tech writer for too many years here:

I agree with the 4 doc model. It boosts a proven structure for individual pieces of a doc set.

DITA formalizes this with its topic, concept, and task, and reference topics. You see another form of it in man pages.

And I agree with the FTA, it's often overkill or just plain unsuitable.

If you're stuck with writing anything from a readme to an aircraft maintenance library, then you can make your content engaging and useful by just making sure that it's correct, clear, concise, consistent, and cohesive. Above all it should be compassionate[1].

Check off those 7 C's and your doc will be appreciated. The 4 doc model is just one option to get you there.

I'd suspect the reverse: perhaps higher temperate would generally be preferable but usually the breeding is in colder regions because the warmer ones have too many predators, but those vents don't share that predator problem. Maybe the warmth outlier is too small to sustain the particular kind of warm-water predators they evade.
"There is no other model that can pay the bills for a site with hundreds of millions of active users posting their own content with mostly no restraint."

The government can. These companies could be nationalized, or the government could make their own competing sites if they were interested in doing so. But they're just not.

It takes more than just the means. It takes a will to do it.
Is the issue with telling people to pipe URL output into bash? Or is the issue with any distribution method that isn't flatpak or something similarly privilege-limited?

I see how flatpak is an improvement, but I don't see how piping into bash is any worse than "install this .deb file / npm package / pip package." If the package author wanted to do something malicious, it's just as easy (if not easier) to put the malicious code in the package itself rather than a bash installer for the package.
True, which is why web browser sandbox is the only way I use any big social media.
I neither see a drive towards results nor an interest in leading others. Not saying that you do not have it but it is lacking in your post and is an absolute requirement in my book. I once had to promote the most junior team member, beg him to become manager as the technically competent one was lacking and never once brought up team related issues during my discussions with him. Also be sure you really want that - management is often being sandwiched and gets no thanks from both sides. Also the buck tends to stop with you so any gaps others in you team leave are your headache. Be very sure that you want it. Are you going to be happy to focus on results and people. Are you able to maintain a reasonable level of happiness in your team? Based on how you express yourself you might be a bit depressed which is an awful starting position to get a promotion. Finding a therapist may help changing your view on job, interactions and if it happens transition in a new and emotionally more demanding job.
it's fascinating me that all of HSP's articles are manually justified monospace text. Pages and pages of it. That's quite hard to do? There's not a lot of double-spaces or unusual punctuation so it's mostly achieved by word choice. I did wonder if there was some subtle css justification going on but apparently not; and you can see in articles from other authors on the site that the style is ragged right, but HSP never writes like that.
Let's imagine that I don't have an Instagram account because I don't. (I never really understood it because it just felt like a slightly differently flavored Facebook and I already had a Facebook account.) Up until this weekend, I could simply view a Twitter post regardless of whether I had an account. And while I've never been much of a Twitter user, I did find that useful as a lot of local news and weather type stuff would get posted and I could easily view them. Is there any analogy to that with Threads?
I cannot find any substance in your comment. At minimum it should provide some rough examples instead of simply "underwhelming".

I graduated in 1997 and at my first job we had an engineer that loved making Powerpoint presentations.

The argument is that Sega's global success with the Genesis came from its products - not the marketing (despite what the marketers say). One piece of support for that is that the console succeeded against Nintendo in most territories, despite all being under different marketing leadership and following different strategies.

When the Sega of America marketers were put in charge of product development and stopped relying on Japanese products, they were unable to replicate their success. They followed questionable practices derived from the toy industry (from where CEO Tom Kalinske emerged), such as a heavy emphasis on expensive licensed titles over original franchises.
But this is what FB/Meta are known for. They managed to scale PHP for years. They did fork it into Hack. They do have their own extensions. But they've put a ton of time and engineering effort into it. They didn't do it because they thought PHP was a great language. It was because they already had a massive infrastructure and tons of engineers that were already productive. Doing the math they realized it'd be cheaper to keep using PHP.

The same is true here. They spent so much money getting Instagram to scale. They created Cinder to try and fold their hacks/tweaks back into Python. Spinning up some Rust/Java/Nim/Zig/Pony/Whatever stack sounds like it'd be fun... but spinning up a stack with which you're already VERY familiar, sounds like a money-maker.

I'm totally agreeing btw, I realize this came off like it might be a counterpoint.

I'm going to guess they set a requirement of C#/.NET to help their move from Unity, which currently isn't supported for iOS and Android as of right now.

"As of Godot 4.0, exporting .NET projects is supported for desktop platforms (Linux, Windows and macOS). Other platforms will gain support in future 4.x releases."
> How they intend to do that without any staff is something I would like to know about.

A company I worked for did the same thing. They got rid of basically all of the staff and just outsourced everything to cut costs. I'd assume that's the plan here.
I understand the need for growth and advancement, but I'm not sure if changing roles would address your concerns. I also think your other motivations for becoming a manager might just make you a bad one.

Have you tried changing your work environment, team, or domain first instead?
It seems like they thought a lot about making sure everything could be mocked and tested:

“Inflation is falling mostly because energy prices are down, a trend that will not last for ever. Underlying or “core” inflation is more stubborn (see chart 1). History suggests that even a small amount of sticky underlying inflation is hard to dislodge.”

Maybe look for ways to increase supply of the things with high prices? Energy infrastructure could absolutely reinforce lowered energy prices. Helping electrification along through many means would too-grid investments and modernization, battery factories, new/opening shuttered mines (more of a regulation or economic response than large governmental project).
Ask HN: Is there an RSS reader that presents content as a chronological stream?
I've realized over time that one thing I prefer about a Twitter-like chronological feed compared to any RSS app I've ever used is that I don't feel like I have to catch up or get to "inbox zero" or whatever; when the app loads, the most recent stuff is up top, and older stuff falls away without me having to do anything (i.e. "mark as read").

Is there an RSS reader that provides this experience?
