> 'Picnic' began life as a 17th-century French word: it wasn't even close to being an American invention. A 1692 edition of Origines de la Langue Françoise de Ménage mentions 'piquenique' as being of recent origin and marks the first appearance of the word in print. As for how the French came by this new term, it was likely invented by joining the common form of the verb 'piquer' (meaning "to pick" or "peck") with 'nique,' possibly either a Germanic term meaning "worthless thing" or merely a nonsense rhyming syllable coined to fit the first half of this new palate-pleaser.
Not an awful feature if it rewrote the existing URL in place, rather than pushing a new one (idk if the API actually allows that) - so copying it to share you'd always get the right anchor to where you're currently reading (or could remove it still if you intended to share the whole thing).
Matrix multiplication with a different function and weights for each input/output. That’s the primary operation.

There are many other operational modes overlaid that we typically do not model with mainstream models, but they primarily act as broad modifiers (suppression, gain, etc) we understand very well how it works, for example, when we get a few brain cells together to play pong or doom. We can transcribe the functionality of these simple biological networks, once trained, onto models and they function as expected.

The simplified computational model we use for neural networks closely models the primary mechanism, but lacks self reinforcement systems, biochemical moderators, self directed connectivity modifications, etc. Basically we do the training with a separate process for most of the systems in common use, in contrast with biological systems which self organise and train in-situ.

I tried using Podman for about 4 or 5 months on my M1 Mac, but eventually just gave up in frustration. I'm not doing anything too crazy, just running Minikube for some local development, but it just isn't stable enough and requires a lot of digging into threads to find the workarounds or the proper config.

I was wasting more and more time on it. It was constantly crashing/hanging so one day I just said fuck it and switched back to Docker Desktop, which not only worked better than when I switched but seems to have improved quite a lot in the intervening time as well.
I've just about given up trying with remote work tbh. I've found it just about impossible to collaborate with people since it seems everyone is out walking their dog otherwise unresponsive for most of the day. Occasionally I've attempted to start the day with a good attitude and try to get as much work done as possible but found that I still can't get much done since I'll have 5 in progress tasks all blocked by various people who never respond.

Occasionally work rents out a meeting room for the day and then we can actually get a full days work in where everyone is available and communication flows freely.

Job hunting to see if it's better at the next place but I'm not too hopeful since the last places have been so poor at remote work. Haven't been able to find anything which has an office these days.
It has this awkward situation where CNI is old and boring and missing just a couple thing, while Netavark/Aardvark is the new shiny Wayland of container networking but can't handle half of the use cases CNI used to handle just fine.

I wanted to have a separate network on a bridge, visible to the host, where IP addresses and DNS would be managed by a dedicated DHCP/DNS service (like what dnsmasq can do). Well imagine, unless you jump through a whole lot of hoops and use macvlan and whatnot, netavark just plain cannot do it.

I heard one could make a netavark plugin quite easily, but interfaces for DNS and IPAM are missing from the puzzle.
Man, compose can be so much simpler for local dev though, you can easily bind local files and you don't need a fancy setup for local dev. We just switched from docker compose to k8s so that it was closer to prod, but I think if we had to do it again I'm not sure I'd bother.
I have two dishes which I mastered to make during our stand up call.

1) deal chawal(North Indian dish).

2) Vegetable biriyani.

Frozen veggies are easily available in West that a rice cooker and remote controlled induction stove means I set it up in 5 mins during our stand up, it makes itself and remains hot till 12.30 when I have lunch.
That requires two skillsets, the electronics part only one.

Concur. This is a great book. I got it after an HN recommendation a while ago and have been using it ever since. I've been cooking for all of my adult life but have picked up a lot of useful basics about underlying cooking processes. The recipes don't start until page 279; the preceding content is cooking basics and processes, structured around the eponymous salt, fat, acid and heat.

Its recipe for granola has become an instant family favourite.
This is a good point too, more to the ecosystem. I'm not sure there will ever be a mitigation to that.
Use a deepfake to make yourself appear young and work remotely? Add a voice modulator?

Seriously, however, consulting seems like a good option. Don't mention anything that ages you, and just be a remote mercenary. Think digital nomad, working in Oman or something. If you're tied down to life in a specific place because of whatever reason (family etc.), no reason still not to consult remotely. I feel like your level of experience lends itself to building an elite consulting shop with employees. Why you asking for wage slavery anyways?

I've not had this with anything I've "bought". If it were confiscated I certainly would have no qualms in downloading a copy.

If something is removed from netflix, that's fine, I'm not paying to buy things I watch on netflix - I'm paying to rent them. I wouldn't copy them any more than I'd copy a VHS I'd rented from blockbuster back in the day.
Yes it would stop warning but it would be akin to genocide. The inertia around fossil fuels use in the modern world would cause the death of millions or maybe billions if stopped suddenly.
But it should be mentioned that lot more (VC-funded) startups are being purchased by PE firms, compared to 10-20 years ago.

Which makes one wonder - how "organic" are these companies? In the sense that they can stand on their own feet, without being funded by debt throughout their whole lives.

Essentially, LSPs are generic implementations of features like autocomplete, expand selection, refactor, etc., with a standardized API.

Different editors and IDEs can use the same LSP, without the need to reinvent/reimplement the wheel.
I don't know how many pins my cable has, and never knew there was any such difference. It's the one that came with the monitor.

I chalked it up to a driver issue, since the exact same hardware works great on Linux.

I also have a separate, random Chinese dock off Amazon, which I couldn't get to work under Windows with that particular laptop. It works fine under Linux on that same laptop, and also works fine under Windows with a different, AMD-based laptop.

I haven't tried it in a while, but right after it started working with the HP dock, this particular dock was still not working at all.
Nix Shell Template
I've tried Podman for a few weeks, and I have to say that first experience is fine, I get that there are some differences in the setup. Aaaand then you come across all sorts of the small and medium cross-incompatibilities (flags, parameter handling, different syntax parsing, drivers..), long standing bugs, Podman Compose is at least subjectively poorly supported/aims at compatibility at all, the list goes on. Docker itself isn't perfect, but it's totally not such a mess.

I would readily admit that my analysis of memex's (non-)edge is a bit of a quick extrapolation, weaving together some broader themes as potential explanatory factors.

There is an empirical fact though, that begs for some explanation: These tools are not used as much as one would think is commensurate to their (potential) added value. There is no virtuous cycle that would fund more development, create sharper "edges" etc.

The connection with "power" might appear remote but consider e.g. why powerpoint (no pun) - a manifestly inferior piece of software - became so succesful.

Thanks, looks very interesting.

I have a couple of questions:

1. Will I be able to use this in my IDE (say JetBrains or VSCode) alongside the programming language’s LSP? So that this project would only be in effect for the Pg SQL bits?

2. I am a Rust newbie but I’m an experienced developer. Is there any room for someone like me to contribute to the project?
But that's the whole point, isn't it?
Very misleading title
I dont live in the US, I was picking a random non-best-developer-in-the-world salary to make the point, not trying to accurately price specific jobs.

But surely 100-120k is far too small a range even for the US considering the variance of states AND the variance of companies from those doing similar work to FANG for cheaper all the way down to companies that just need a few wordpress devs to create small business websites?
it would also be able to suggest columns/fields from your database, as well as picking up errors. for example, given this table:

create table profiles (
id serial primary key,
first_name text,
last_name text
);

and this query:

select id, firstname from profiles;

it would then help to detect if you had an error in your select query (in this case, "firstname" should be "first_name"), and your code editor would show a warning, even before you try to run the code inside your database
I've been having an ok time with Rancher Desktop, I stopped using Docker Desktop on Windows after they forced me to update to a known broken build with no way to go back (unless I paid for their enterprise version)
It's okay to write bad code, etc. Every one does it. Thanks for this!
> I haven't ordered a pizza in 3+ years.

Even building a pizza up from a prepared crust is way better than frozen. My mother needs gluten-free, and there was a GF frozen pizza we liked that a local store carried. But then it disappeared, and I decided to try building my own from a GF crust. The home-built pizza was so much better that there's no going back - not to mention the opportunity to try different toppings.
Just want to highlight that this is not from Google/Gmail and I would never be convinced to install a plugin that can read my emails which is not from provider.

P.S not saying this company/product is malicious, just that it requires too much trust
To be honest, I find JIRA + Confluence(+ lets say Gitlab) a strong memex system. You can link everything very easily, the software is happy to create the links for you as well. Adding Gliphy as well ( for charts and other usages ).
> I'm totally in favor of a vacancy tax

There already is a "vacancy tax": the landlord is losing money when the property is vacant. They can't do that forever so that "tax" will naturally force them to adapt to the market (lower rents or sell).
Disagree. Every place I've ever worked has had 1 or 2 key guys on each team who made shit work while 8-10 others worked as you described. In the 27 years I've been working in the industry I've seen endless attempts both by individual managers and the industry to re-org or best practice or agile their way out of this, but the situation remains the same like a law of the universe.
I doubt it's a scam, but the '4D' in the title is seriously clickbaity, and the article gives no clue as to how or why it might be justified.
Is the problem the office or the commute?

If offices, schools/nurseries and housing are all within a 20mn cycle radius the question of remote or in-office work becomes different
The headline seems to conflate roads with driving, as in a personal vehicle. Roads also support the transportation of goods as well as public transportation and bike lanes. Even if we had zero personal vehicles we'd still build many roads, so the cost difference is what should be reported with this headline.
>I'll have 5 in progress tasks all blocked by various people who never respond.

Slackers are ruining WFH for everyone but if the company tolerates them slacking off like that it means that that's the company culture and getting stuff done doesn't matter.

I've had the same issue as a junior. Stagnated at a job where the team was WFH and full of slackers who wouldn't respond.

A lot of companies haven't built a system of properly mentoring juniors remotely and accountability where people WFH can also be trusted to do their job and not masquerade at doing work.
What do you mean by that? You use Docker Compose to distribute to production? Into what?
I think that would be good. A bit thanatological maybe, and perhaps too "niche" for a hn list, but I think it would be classy if done in a good way, like you suggest. A wall of remembrance. I think we need that as a hn list indeed.

good thing to browse every now and then and remind yourself of the people who have big contributions, and how much you appreciate people, could even spark expressions of that appreciation to folks alive too.

The relevant part here is that Koch et al backed that research fully expecting it to support the notion that:

> Wait until the average/mean hot days climb as one keeps adding more temperature reading stations together around airports and not forest.

and instead the research refuted that expectation by finding that climate data scientists weren't that stupid as to allow such obvious bias.

> Why exactly is it that there seems to be only the unicorn strategy? What happened to the investor who just wants to make a few x by investing in firms that are founded by experienced people with connections in their industry?

That exists but then on average you'll be losing money due to the normally expected rate of failure. That can still be a valid strategy, but then you're just not in it for the money, but for the social impact. And some of these funds, once they get good at it do turn into serious moneymakers which in turn allows them to go for the evergreen strategy. This is the holy grail for social impact investing. A good example of such a fund is GIMV from Belgium, but there are many more.
They did not call anyone an incel. Chill.
> You can get fancier as you learn, but stews are my favourite food because they require cheap ingredients, and with the instant pot I don't even need to take care of it while it cooks. Toss everything together and turn the thing on. It has a timer and a keep warm function, so you can literally fill it in the morning, and come back from work to a warm pot of stew.

This is the main issue I have with my model: it won't let you stew for more than 30 minutes at a time. It's a huge PITA to come back to it and start it again, since you can't just go out and about your business and leave it to do its thing.
That's not really the user's fault though. They didn't pay because the things to buy were not appealing enough. The developers should've either chosen a better monetization strategy or made the optional items sufficiently appealing.

I've seen some other games too where people felt compelled to throw money at them because they feared that otherwise development would be halted and the servers shut down, and it has always been indicative of a game in a bad state (since it typically means that the players are seeing the player count on Steam etc and realizing that the game is likely financially unsustainable).
It also leaves out how many VC funded startups there are. If more and more were funded every year, you’d expect more and more to go bankrupt every year too even if the success rate stayed constant.

It is a bad article
I mean, every 2-3 weeks there is top story on hn about how returning back to office is evil, and the same comments about how working from home gave those people a whole new meaning and fulfillment in life. This must be an ad, right?
They also crowd out the small firms that were doing just fine before the VC funded startup entered the eco-system, spoils it for everybody and then goes bust leaving the market unserved. I hate it when that happens.
The thing is, if you’re not within commuting distance, why would the company pay you London rates and not standard UK rates :)

I both love & hate the idea of rustler.

I love there’s a way to make apps on BEAM faster, I hate that you have to do that with non-native Erlang/Elixir language.

If only the BeamASM could be 5x faster than it is, rustler wouldn’t be needed (and come with all the downsides of NIFs).
Not so much underpowered, but rather faster heat, higher fan speed and smaller (so proportionally higher powered but only useful for smaller portions). That makes it more convenient for many people than a regular convection oven. Not to say they are not over hyped, but they have their niche.
I'm interested in making a clone of a useful piece of CAD software

Caring enough to start is the biggest challenge.

Getting anyone else to care is even biggerer.

It's not a 100kb model. It's 100kb config files for a several GB model. A small trained layer to stick on top of the real model for fine tuning.
I wonder why that is? I suppose the governments of states with big cities stand to lose a lot of tax revenue if employees no longer need to go to those big cities to do their jobs, and can instead work from (and pay tax to) states with lower cost of living.
Barret, Colt, Smith & Wesson, etc. presumably.
With Skaffold, you can bind (or rather transparently sync) local files to a Pod.

I agree the initial setup is more difficult with a K8s local dev than with a Docker Compose local dev.

But the impedance mismatch makes using Docker Compose a bad idea when you deploy to a K8s cluster.

The secrets management is different. The way pods talk to each other is different. App-level configuration and updates are different. There is so much that diverges, that you end up with two independent systems. One for dev and one for prod. This is not good.
