> Maybe, but if everyone starts using heat pumps we have a problem in getting enough copper in the ground everywhere on time.

In New Zealand everyone uses heatpumps and there is no problem with everyone running them. Heatpumps don't use a huge amount of power even on cold days. If the grid can handle everyone cooking dinner at 6pm, it can handle heatpumps running throughout the day keeping the house warm.

It's a new site and not indexed by any of the major SEO tools. It's also targeting a lot of long-tail keywords which most people typically won't bother writing about. They have like 20-50 monthly searches and are easy to rank for.

The prompts and the app he is using to generate the posts is pretty bad though, as most phrases are repetitive, and I would expect Bing/DDG will nuke it out of this stratosphere, eventually. No chance this gets past something like Google either.

Oh man... we've got a couple cats as well and I hadn't even thought of that. We've currently got a couple litter boxes inside the TV stand so even just cutting another couple holes in the back and adding a 120mm fan with some cut-to-size MERV13 + activated charcoal or something would probably go a long way to keeping the dust and smell down.

Thanks for the ideas!
Structured logging is such an easy to gain, massive improvement to observability. Assuming you can pay for the log processor to make sense of it all :)

I’ve been working on a side project to bring something like the DataDog log explorer to the local development environment. The prototype I made has already been extremely helpful in debugging issues in a very complex async ball of Rails code. Does something like that sound useful to other folks? Does it already exist and I just can’t find it?

And they only needed that internal team to gaslight customers into believing it's normal for lithium batteries to just suck consistently and range estimates are almost always wrong because they use an over-optimistic formula to estimate range INSTEAD of using the industry standard, which is to estimate future range based on remaining fuel/energy and your average economy over the past ten minutes or so, often scaled down a touch to guarantee that the estimate hits zero before you run out of gas/battery

They chose this route because claiming they get an extra 40ish miles per charge was more important to them than giving their customers accurate range estimation for the life of the car.

Supposedly there is good data to suggest that people who work 10% longer make 40% more money. Now, that's not necessarily causal or anything, but it doesn't have to be. From a hiring perspective, it just has to be true. Unless you suspect that a candidate has scammed his previous employers, it is rational to prefer candidates who, based on their hours worked, are more likely to be effective at making money. Making money is generally the business of business.

> I keep explaining all we have to do is build a data mart built using SQL Server, and use our ETL tools to keep it populated with the data they need to analyze.

I can relate and have experienced this. The result was that they would end up exporting from a series of Tableau/Looker workspaces, and importing into excel and doing their analysis there.

Then continually making enhancement requests on the Tableau/Looker workspaces to get any additional data they need for their excel work.

Then of course, the excel document and its multitude of versions would get emailed around until it hit the attachment size limit, or if there were too many version of it to figure out which one was "actionable".

We finally figured out what they were doing when the enhancement requests for the reporting workspaces got too bizarre.

Insanity.

If you have young kids (6 or 7) who understand multiplication and like math, Gauss's formula is such a magical thing to show them, because it seems like it'd be impossible to shortcut adding up all those numbers that way, on the surface, and it's such an easy thing to prove visually.
That's a far far bigger endevour than my efforts.. but I do love walking from a city to the airport, dragging my carry-on if necessary.

The last part can be a bit stressful, as airport terminals are not always made for pedestrian access. But it's very satisfying to feel like you have 'escaped' a city under your own steam as it kind of falls apart and back together.

A lot of dev companies force their employees to use bacbooks in part as a result of their locked down practices and the only way to actually compile and test for "everything", because of how much easier it is to cross compile to other platforms and markets.

For that reason, I've personally had to use a M2 for a week now, and I find the experience unpleasant. The OS feels old and cumbersome. I had flashback to a time long ago when I needed to install custom apps in Windows for some basic functionality that's been built in gnome. Things like "alt + tab" actually bringing an app to the foreground, instead of prioritizing the minimized state. Why this deliberate action would have seemingly no effect is correct, I'm sure will be defended.

Global shortcut to start up a terminal? Install a third party utility is probably the easiest. Want to place windows on the screen? Install a third party utility. Better screenshot functionality? Install a third party app. Change the default shell to a custom one? First you got to figure out how to access the root system through finder to actually find the executable.

It goes on and on. And the performance is much worse than what I've become used to. The only thing it actually has going for it, which I believe is great, is battery life. But, that's it.

I'm just glad I was able to disable the app validation check, because it had literally prevented me from installing a lot of third party software, and the suggested workarounds had no effect. Just the fact of phoning home every time run an executable makes me nauseous.

I wonder how often the homebrew team get offers to add malware, because the checks there seem woefully insufficient.
Ask HN: Should I give up trying to be a founder?
Hi HN!

Throwaway account for obvious reasons. I left my high-paying FAANG job 10 years ago to become a founder. I've started 2 companies since then. I have yet to have an exit.

The first one was VC backed. The company wasn't doing great after raising our series A, so the investors replaced me with a "professional" CEO. A year later they invested more money into the company at a $1 valuation and erased all my equity. I went several years with no salary, and then lost all my stock.

The second one is a bootstrapped, tech-enabled services company. We've been barely profitable since we started almost 5 years ago. The economic slowdown hit my company hard. Revenue is down 40% this year. We've been running at a loss for a few months. I now have $200K in debt on the business. We've been trying hard to turn things around, and things have improved, but I'm not sure how long it will take to get profitable again. Every week that passes I get a little bit more in debt. If we are able to turn the business around, I could probably sell it for a few million in a couple years.

I love the people I work with. The business is not my favorite because sales is lumpy and unpredictable. The stress is enormous.

I could wind the business down and probably manage to pay off all the debt in the process. But then what?

It would be hugely embarrassing to go back to working for any other company. I would have been much better off financially if I had stayed at my high paying dev job.

I don't have any money left to try and start a new company.

Should I swallow my pride and just get a low stress job that pays good money? What about grit and persistence?

I'd appreciate your advice!

I really do not see powershell as a bash, zsh, fish, ... shell equivalent. It is more inline with perl, python, php, ... scripting languages. One thing I really dislike about powershell development is default aliasing such as using curl to actually call Invoke-WebRequest.

Texting while driving (or other similar distractions) results in slower reaction times for drivers than even drunk drivers.
Yet it doesn't carry the same stigma. I would even guess a big portion of the people who have absolute disdain for drunk driving are guilty of distracted driving from time to time.

I don't know what the answer to that is, since it's more difficult to catch and prove But at the least we should all call out our friends or family if we see them doing it, the same way we would if they were about to drive while drunk.
Politics is not decided by money. Money is a huge factor, and you can't do much without at least some money, but it's not the final word. Politics is determined in large part by how politicians read the mood of their voters, how they personally feel about an issue, and whether what the lobbyists are saying seems to make sense.

All the complaints you have about your healthcare system exist in the USA and other developed countries' healthcare systems as well. The difference is that your neighbors down south pay far more and have worse outcomes.

Focus on statistical outcomes, not hyperbolic qualitative measures. For example, life expectancy in Canada is one of the top in the world, well above the USA. That is a quantitative number that is partially influenced by the quality and availability of Canadian healthcare (among other factors).

You could certainly integrate a shader into a monitor using a sufficiently powerful GPU or equivalent. But looking at https://i0.wp.com/wackoid.com/wp-content/uploads/2021/08/CRT... for example, you'd need at least 10 times the original resolution, which for NTSC would translate to roughly the same vertical resolution as an 8K display, if not more.

The curved glass wouldn't be necessary, nor very desirable, IMO. Trinitron TVs were approximatly flat and great for CRT gaming.
IIRC, the originating party's on-hook will immediately disconnect the call, while if the receiving party goes on-hook, there is a short but significant delay before disconnect is finalized.

I recently read an interesting and very cynical take on the LDS Church's proselyting missions, which actually implies the opposite of assimilation into the larger society.

The goal is for these young people, naive and hopeful, to go out into the world and be rejected by it. The elders want these kids to repeatedly face rudeness and rejection. They want to instill the belief in the kids on mission the idea that the LDS Church alone is the moral beacon, the guiding light of the world. The only true and holy path.

The elders don't actually expect that the kids on mission are going to get a statistically significant number of converts just going door-to-door in some other part of the country. They see that the key to increasing their power, and increasing membership in the LDS Church is to retain within the religion as many kids as possible.

Sure, they'll lose some kids, but maybe those would have been disruptive anyway. If the church has done a good job of indoctrination on these kids since birth, then most of the kids will stay. And if the greater world rejects them, then the kids may think that the church is their only true home.

I don't understand what ARM does.

They have designed a processor architecture that is RISC-style. For some companies, ARM sells the design and others manufacture the chip. So what do Apple and Qualcomm get out of it, if they design their own architecture? Is apple tacking on proprietary extensions or instructions?

Why didn't apple design a CPU architecture from the ground up ala RISC-V?

you're right that it's usually not practical, but i just wanted to point out that a $30k lobbying budget can and has beat a $3M lobbying budget in some cases when there's enough public support. Money in politics is a huge deal and politicians in the US are corrupt as hell and yet somehow the previous sentence sometimes holds true, so all is not lost.
Those companies are only that big because of profit on non-Microsoft platforms, including these days the web and mobile. For example, Activision (founded to make Atari 2600 games) are being acquired because of their console and mobile properties - the value derived from the PC is there but relatively small and historic. The amounts Microsoft have burned trying to make money from gaming defy belief, instead they seem determined to destroy the viability of the market for everyone.

One reason I am pessimistic about Arm's future is they will struggle to balance raising money for future needed R&D without creating the appearance of being too lucrative a target for a nVidia or SoftBank wanting to play monopoly. That is going to push people to RISC-V. I hope they manage to do something, but they're in for a rough time.
