Considering that 90% of startups fail, I'd say those figures are even too optimistic. It's more like:

95% will fail,
4% will become stable projects that throw out enough cash to support their developer (plus a team of 2 - 4),
0.99% will become venture-scale companies, and
0.01% will grow to Google/Microsoft/Apple-scale.
The older I get, the more I realize those supposedly "mature adults" do the exact same shit that immature teenagers do. They might be better at hiding it, but they still do it.
Ask HN: How do you deal with well paid job being too easy/not interesting?
I don't doubt there are a bunch of us who work at the job which is not interesting and at times too easy, but the financial resp. does not allow to change the job to something more interesting.

For me personally switching would involve a reasonable pay cut and im no longer single in my 20s (have all the time in the world to learn new stuff)
One thing i found is working out every day makes it easier. Wonder else could help?
Let me know when you meet the first people who voluntarily agree with paying higher taxes. Everyone I know in EU wants to pay less taxes, not more, as they don't trust the state with how it has spent their taxes so far (aka on corruption and cronyism).

Canadians pay higher taxes than Americans and their social services aren't that much better now that the US's. Why isn't it working for them if higher taxes and not a stronger economy is the solution?

Whenever the state says "give me more of your tax money so I can take care of you", check your pockets.

To be fair, I'd also agree with more taxes, provided those in power would be held accountable and punished severely for mismanaging it and that they would try to address growing inequality, but as long as they're unaccountable and spend my taxes like drunken sailors giving it to their golf buddies in the private sector while pushing for austerity for the plebs while the rich get richer, I'll do everything I can to pay less taxes to the state so I can defund it of the capability of improper spending, and use that extra money to take care of myself and my loved ones.

Kickstarting MedEdTech: Real-Time Data, 3D Viz. Wisdom Needed
Hey HN fam,

I'm [attempting] embarking on a MedTech education project, blending real-time data with 3D visualization for an enhanced learning experience in human physiology. I'm hoping it'll transform learning into something more immersive and intuitive.

Here's the thing, I'm steeped in the medical side of the equation and still exploring the tech landscape. So, I could use some guidance:

1. Any insights on AI tech that's good at processing real-time physiological data for educational use?
2. The best tools/platforms you know of for creating 3D visuals around human anatomy?
3. Suggestions on handling the integration of real-time data with visualization tools?
4. How do you propose reaching out to tech professionals for potential collaboration?
5. Any essential legal or regulatory aspects to consider when developing MedTech?

Your input/wisdom would be invaluable at this early stage. Also, if you happen to specialize in AI, data processing, or 3D visualization and this sparks your curiosity, feel free to reach out. It'd be great to discuss potential collaboration.

Thanks so much for your time!
you can hire one junior to do the work of 5 using AI assisted tools

Crimean Tatars were deported by Stalin, many died in the process, and in the late 80s they and their descendants returned back to Crimea. It was a case of collective punishment for collaboration with Nazis of some of Crimean Tatars and has been many times officially condemned both in the USSR and Russia just like other acts of collective punishment by Stalin. All of it is well known.

Now how does this make Crimea Ukrainian?

There are quite a few abrasive replies upthread from some Rustaceans. They don't mention Rust by name, just like not every one of Drepper's mails contained the world "glibc", but they're in the same vein.

This is particularly important at a point in a language's lifetime when community support is not just the best, but usually the only kind of support you can get. I like Rust and I'm very productive with it, but if anyone thinks I'm going to ask junior devs on my team to put up with the kind of stuff I see upstream, they're wrong. Just because we developed a thick skin for it on FOSS mailing lists back in the nineties doesn't mean everyone needs to.
There are few of these e-bike companies which are basically marketing, branding, sales sitting on top of Chinese suppliers.

In the US you have young, silly fascism: cops killing anyone who isn't their preferred skin colour in the street. It's all very hateful and not palatable, even for folks that don't think further than the current incident.

In the EU you have older, more refined fascism: a political party subtly (or not so subtly) intimating an entire group of people is a huge problem, a return to "strong leader" values, etc. It's perhaps a bit more seductive, and deliberately so: public perception would be more poor if it was as violence-heavy as it is in the US.

You have to remember the EU is where fascism came from. It was a huge deal before WW2 and in essence it has never really left, it has just gotten better at rebranding.

Eventually you will see the hot new fascism trends in the EU transported to the US as well, it is how fashion works.

N.B.: I'm not a fan (of fascism or other regressive policies), which is perhaps not obvious. I just wanted to make clear that while the US has many problems and they are horrible, most of them are just "well the EU is doing this now so why aren't they???" and you can sort that out by waiting a generation or two. It's how the two areas started out (for ease of dialogue I'm ignoring how the US actually started out, that's a can of worms for another day), after all.
Including "consultant" in this list muddies the waters very badly. Freelancing and independent contracting are forms of entrepreneurship, whereas consulting is often (not always) a form of traditional employment where a regular company gives you a regular paycheque.

All the quirks eventually become part of your muscle memory for driving that car. At first while you're figuring out the quirks maybe it takes your mind off of traffic a bit.

After a while though, you know that you have to hesitate and wiggle the gear lever just so to get 2nd, and do it without thought.

That's a reasonable assumption. It's a bit more complicated than being "backwards compatible". The android-support package needs to say explicitly that it is compatible with GHC 9.x, but it doesn't, so cabal refuses to try to build it.

I correct myself: just overridding is shabby, once the linker has selected the the version of a symbol, it will pick the binary objecti(.o) where the this version is. And the semantic/dependency can vary from one version to another. See libc_start from glibc 2.34.

So I think we may have our solution to make the life of developers of binary-only distribution on elf/linux (for instance games) much better.

sourceware binutils ld need a "version selection" file which will define binary compatibility of the produced binaries.

Interesting, thanks. How will they cover the northern Sweden, I wonde.
Same experience here. I can once in a while smell things, but it doesn't last long, and I can't correlate the smell a perfume is supposed to represent to what it actually represents (so, a perfume that smells like roses smells like something, but I can't correlate it with the actual smell of roses, because I don't know how they smell). There are some smells that are quite strong and I can identify, like alcohol, fuel, acetone, but I wonder if what I call 'smell' in those cases is just a chemical reaction you get from the abrasive? properties of those things, rather than actual smell.

I cope with it in my own case by being thorough in my own cleanliness - I shower and use perfume (three sprays!) every time I have to leave my house. For other things I rely on my SO.

I'm a bit of a hypochondriac but I've lived like this for 30 years so I guess if I was having some kind of mental degradation it would have been noticeable already!
Your point seems to come down to this argument, which I don't believe is in good faith (I don't believe the vendors are acting terribly laudably, either, but that's a separate issue).

> Sure, in a strictly literal, legal sense, it is quite possible that they are not selling a defective product because they lied to the customer and tricked them into purchasing a substandard product.

So you said a guarantee was broken earlier, and I asked you to demonstrate that or point to where they've committed to guaranteeing a certain quality of service.

Now you have adopted a position of saying they're technically not doing anything wrong, but morally they are, which when talking about Microsoft or Amazon or Google or Apple or (etc) is a bit of a slippery slope and/or isn't really news.

I see you also slipped in a 'they lied to their customers' (and 'tricked them') but if you read any EULA you'll see it's all best-effort, sold as is, no warranty for any purpose, etc etc, and this has always been the case.

Should it be the case? I don't have a good answer there. If you want penalty clauses, I'm sure you can find vendors that will oblige, but a) you'll quickly have an adversarial relationship with your supplier, after b) you spend stupid numbers of monies negotiating such a contract, and c) you'll still suffer exploits and outages.
I mean good for you. Both my boys (2 and 4) are social butterflies, if they had only each other they’d probably go crazy.

How do you call C API from python? Through executable + stdin/stdout?
I know there are many newer tools with various advantages. But I've used SWIG bindings in production for almost 20 years and some of the code is still live. An amazing achievement of the SWIG developers. So the stability and longevity are big advantages as well as the ability to adjust how the C++ code is exposed without actually changing the C++ sources.

I just got the dual webers running on my VW beetle. I'll have to try that pedal pumping routine, because it sure as hell won't start without at least one pump, even if it's 110 degrees outside.
Yes, but "does it work" is a low standard.

- You don't get any documentation, whereas with something more official you will have a complete schematic (so you know which support components will be used), pinout, information about power supplies etc.

- You can't rely on being able to buy the same thing again. Even if you find something with the same pinout, small changes to the power supply or usb-serial converter can ruin your day.

- Shipping will probably take a while (or you're buying from a local re-seller, increasing the cost). Your company probably doesn't have a process for buying from aliexpress, but orders from digikey all the time.

- I've not had a problem with development boards, but plenty of cheap electronics in the same category are really badly designed; a random memorable example: https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005001621800502.html . They have had their issues, but arduino stuff does tend to be well designed, and vendor development boards are usually reliable too.

- Stuff like the feather ecosystem can be genuinely helpful when prototyping if the cost isn't an issue.

I chance the cheap stuff for personal projects, but if work is paying I'd go for something more expensive every time (and probably wouldn't have a choice).

Linus (Tech Tips) has a video talking about cash flow:

It's an interesting argument. My feeling, completely based on spending a lot of time in the EU and the US is, and visited a lot of other countries:

- In general, GDP PPP per capita correlates pretty well with quality-of-life.

- In the case of US versus EU, it doesn't for this precise reason.

The amount of GDP I need to be happy is decent food, housing, education, basic entertainment (e.g. a nice park with a free concert, or a pleasant beach), and medical.

I get all of those in the (lower-income) EU country I normally visit, cheaply, and without much stress. $10k / year provides an adequate quality-of-life. That's not hard to make there, so people pick the careers they want. In the (high cost-of-living) area I spend time in the US, one needs around $150-200k / year to be stress-free. People do work like programming, biotech, law, finance, etc. to make it here.
So what's the output if I show a completely novel image to the subject? E.g. a picture of my armpit covered in blue paint?

In any liquid enough market one should assume significant known future events are priced in and the current price reflects them already. Are bitcoin markets 'liquid enough'? I don't know. And even when something is priced in, you can still expect prices to change a bit after events, because going from X% likelihood of happening to has happened is a difference.

Generally speaking though, the price of bitcoin will probably change much less because of the halving than someone might expect.

People have been talking about Bitcoin as an inflation hedge for a long time, despite the fact that Bitcoin has been printing money at a significant rate. Bitcoin would have been a lot lower valued if it didn't already have the scheduled halvings built into its price.

Ask HN: How do adult-streaming platforms differ from random video chat ones?
I have an idea of building a random video chat webapp, similar to omegle, chatroulette, coomeet and so on. I assume it can be used for streaming adult content live, the very same way as what webcam sites do, but in a more informal way - a model on one side, a viewer on the other side, just a private p2p video call. An extra layer is bidirectional donations via crypto. Model and viewer can swap their roles any moment and donate either way, not just from the viewer to performer.

By looking at sites like omegle I don't see strict rules for those who show themselves via the camera. There are some warnings about forbidden illegal activities which you easily pass by clicking a button like "I am 18 or older and agree with all you have".

However, when I look at webcam sites, like Jasmin, Chaturbate or others, I see that there are usually two strict and clear categories of users - performers and models. And here, if a user wants to be a performer, she or he needs to go through a verification/kyc process, get approved and only then can start streaming.

I asked on some industry-related forums about what's the legal and ethical difference in these approaches and users which are webcam models say, that they want a random video chat webapp to work with to be like webcam sites - have verification process, clear rules for performers, e.g. payout timings, commissions, personal data and personal life safety (geolocation restrictions for viewers) and so on.

As I don't want to turn this webapp into an old-fashioned webcam platform (I am experimenting and hope it can be used in some other way than just adult entertainment), I wonder, how much from webcam platforms should I adopt from webcam sites in regards for legal, ethical and user support stuff? Currently the most important is legal one but I hope to build a strong supportive service for my users so other aspects matter too.

Please share your thoughts.

Thanks!
Anyone who complains about “toxic fandom”, particularly for a franchise they inherited (which includes all of marvel and Lucas film) is thumbing their nose, you can call it what you like but the behaviour is evident. It used to be, when an adaptation was bad, writers and execs would blame each other and audiences would sorta side with writers. Then game of thrones proved it was possible to make an adaptation that was both faithful and good cinema, so now writers and execs blame audiences when they fall short.
