If your kids don't learn any self-control now, when they're finally 18 or whatever and free of parental control they'll go nuts. It's no wonder so many US college kids have serious alcohol problems.
No, service and retail still like when people show in person
By the same token, exchanges will also freeze funds.

If you want to avoid that you have to follow the original Bitcoin vision where everyone had their own node, but I don't think anybody actually works like that these days, to a very small rounding error. Everything interacts with some sort of very centralized service that can screw you over.
What a weird take, as if someone building cars is prevented by them also selling supposed pet rocks online. Lots of people, Musk included, made enough money from throwaway startups to then work on the bigger problems, as they're actually financially secure to do so at that point, the Maslow's hiararchy of needs in action. If you don't like someone's product, don't buy it, but if other people find them useful, good for them and good for the creator.
At $110/h, 70 h/week, that's $7,700/week, so $23k for 3 weeks of hell.

That's about 1/3 of the median US household income in 3 weeks.

If I didn't have a family, had the skills, and lived in the area this would be an interesting way to put away some cash.
Seems like a cyclical systemic failure where confidence in the system makes people buying even though there's no real desire for high quality and it just coasts until it fails.
>of the evading money transfer restrictions variety not the stealing kind

At least in the western world these are synonyms, and everywhere else it's still more often that the tech is used for theft than for authorized-but-illegal transactions. Irreversible, censorship-resistant transactions are like rocket fuel for cybercriminals.
Shocking that an article that uses a swear word in its title doesn't adhere to the strictest journalistic standards :)
>This man builds products people like and shares the story of his success for free to build an audience.

Maybe people are getting tired of 90% of social media content being about "building an audience". Everyone is trying to sell us something, all the time.
Hyperledger is used by quite a few organisations, mainly to share data trustlessly. There are some interesting governance structures growing out of DAO contracts too.

These don't get talked about much because real-world use cases are often too boring to make for good internet arguments. Talk of scams and bubbles and grifts spreads much more easily.
That isn’t grep
I wrote a shell, marcel, that pipes Python values instead of strings: https://marceltheshell.org.

It also does the inverse, allowing you to run marcel commands from Python, e.g. https://www.marceltheshell.org/scripting-1
As a programmer new to the language, this is a fantastic resource. I don't know how many hours I've already lost to some of the finer gotchas of the language. After being seeped in Java and its idiosyncrasies for so long, how humbling it is to get stuck on simple things called out here.
Interesting. A lightly used, high-class call girl is $280-$380 which is obviously much less than the Tinder subscription and you're actually guaranteed sex each month.
Based on nothing, I think tickets for high-demand events should be allocated: 1/3 first-come first-serve for in-person sales (you pay with your time), 1/3 random assignment (you have to get lucky), 1/3 auction to highest bidder (pay with your money).
An inspiring take, but like all things, it's a balancing act. There is great satisfaction in making things people want. The fact that you get money for this biases everything that way, but as plenty of academics and experimental artists will tell you, it can also be soul crushing to make things no one wants.
what is the difference between that and what pigment does?
> If I know the external, publicly addressable IP address of your router (e.g. 135.77.9.106), and no firewall whatsoever, there’s nothing at all preventing me from doing `ip route add 10.0.0.0/8 135.77.9.106`, and voila, I’d have a route to your “private” network.

This only works if you are on the same L2 segment as 135.77.9.106, or control and install this route on every router between you and it. Otherwise, 10/8 will get routed to the next hop for 135.77.9.106, i.e. your local gateway, which won't know anything about the intended 135.77.9.106 destination and will route it normally (which likely means dropping it).

It's true that firewall rules should be in place to prevent this attack from your direct neighbors, but it's not possible to perform it over multiple hops that you don't control.
Not really. He got my money in exchange for a tool I use 3 times a day, every day.
If it's common enough it's no longer a mistake, it's just how the English language is. If everyone understands each other, then insisting on a "more correct" usage is just pedantry.

Can you provide a concrete example of a case where this usage would be confusing?
> If you think about it, a lot of children’s stories and religions rely on this concept of the panopticon to inspirei moral behavior.

If you raise your child on media from the last century that is.

Modern childrens television shows emphasize empathy over crude means like surveillance. Bluey is a great example.
I agree with you—particularly about shipping.

I used to worry about shipping because I thought “you only get one chance to make a good impression.”

But as long as you use negative feedback to improve, you will always[1] get another chance! Statistically speaking, 0% of the world has seen your product.

[1] Obligatory disclaimer that if you really fuck up, you don’t get another chance. But that’s super rare.
Words naturally become overloaded.

It helps lower the barrier to understanding a new concept because you have an existing concept to leap from and language to use. It comes at the cost of precision.

The words `node`, `class`, and `tag` in particular are used all over the place.

There's a reason for the joke that the two hardest things in software are cache invalidation and naming things.
I don't mean this as anything but a constructive comment and I won't reply further. Feedback, for your perusal.

Some of your comments on this thread tipped your hand (to me at least) that you must be a new account here. I was right. You seem like you may not have read the comment guidelines.

I'd like to see the positives in some of this but my friend it comes across really tone deaf and dripping with bias. I don't really disagree with some of your points, but it's wrapped up in language that might be best suited elsewhere. There's room for improvement when it comes to your rhetoric and if the downvotes didn't make that clear I'm hoping this feedback helps ongoing.
In economic terms where money isn't circulating, yes. Now, many open source projects are used by other companies that are commercial, so that does grow the economy however.
Nobody said it has to take the exact form of special relativity. The comment in question here only said that it needs to respect special relativity. A new theory can offer a wildly different explanation, as long is it does explain all the correct predictions of special relativity. In mathematical terms, that does mean your theory will produce the equations of special relativity when some limit or restriction is applied, just as special relativity reduces to Newtonian mechanics in the limit of velocities being much less than c.
Why do the organizations putting on events like these leave so much money on the table? Why don't they just charge the market-clearing price themselves, leaving no room for scalpers to make any profit?
> This sounds simple

Especially for someone who never experienced anything lower than -5°C. Most cars wouldn't even start at -20°C if not equipped with a more powerful generator and battery from the factory. This is measly 20° difference.
>The rest of us have to place a dire importance on it, lest we end up destitute, unemployable, homeless, and so on.

This article is literally about a person quitting his job to do this, so it seems he's not part of "the rest of us".
The article addresses the problem with random assignment: each scalper can enter the lottery hundreds of times, but each regular person can enter only once.
This attitude is so weird to me and entirely different from when I was in school. Students were treated as miniature adults, not some kind of hospital patient. If the teacher needed to run a quick errand, make copies, etc. it wasn’t a big deal.
> There's a term for this – greed.

Greed? You want to lecture about greed, when 95% of tech companies are _driven_ by profits, by driving the share price up by any means necessary, including exploiting their users and employees, being the reason for new consumer protection laws to come into place and then skirting around them, tax avoidance, and a million other shady tricks, all with the goal of becoming a "unicorn", to go public or be acquired, and to get to do it all over again.

This very forum is built by, around and for serial entrepreneurs in this rat race, so it's a bit... rich to lecture about greed on here, of all places.

And yet you criticize when a solo developer, without any venture capital as a safety net, manages to have the success entrepreneurs dream of, measured by the same measuring stick. It all reads like sour grapes to me.

Good on OP for having the courage, persistence and skill to pull this off. Why shouldn't they talk about the steps they took, and the results they're seeing? We can call it survivorship bias, growth hacking, luck, etc. all we want, but it's encouraging to know that these stories _do_ happen.

Achieving financial independence by building something people want to pay for, instead of relying on the usual advertising and VC get-rich-quick schemes, should be applauded.
"Perfect" depends on the person, but I meant to say "the one you want to settle with"
Bad code, bad products are better than none.

And you might be surprised how bad it is or isn’t….
> I make my money doing literally whatever I want, on projects that I find much more exciting, with ample time left over for nature walks, rock climbing, reading, and more. Unlike these authors, the money I make is not the most interesting part of my story.

Nice humblebragging. So you just read one blog post from the author and concluded that the most interesting part of their story is money? I bet they enjoy a lot of things and this is only a small piece of their life, as their blog post is specifically about being an entrepreneur, not about their hobbies.
xterm has no built in lag (your compositor will introduce some, but it's possible to disable compositing if you use Xorg). Kitty can be configured to have practically identical lag to xterm.

Are we even reading the same story? It seems like you're trying to do a takedown of the story, but the author addresses all of those points (the author largely agrees with you)
How do you know that the question you ask it wasnt verbatim, or similar, in the training data, and that there is zero deduction going on?
Artists generally want to have a diverse crowd in terms of disposable income, they don't want to have a crowd of just the people who can/will pay the most.
i get what you’re saying, but i don’t see those as true hierarchies either. they suffer the same issues and problems as described above.

the simple idea of implicit authority because of rank or position does not seem to work as soon as there is an incentive to misuse it; i don’t know what the answer is to this but i don’t really subscribe that the majority of the hierarchies matter so much.

the open source model of “just fork it if you don’t agree” isn’t great, but i would say it’s a start. maintainers define the goal and purpose of the project, but if you don’t like the rules, fork and go your separate ways. this is vastly simplified of course, but i think it better represents a model that would be reasonable for a hierarchy.
It’s sad to me you don’t think an engineer was involved in your story.
I absolutely adored the psychedelic stylings of the pinball number count as a kid and still do. The kids tv stuff from that era even in conservative Ireland was well weird and funky. Check out the into to this mainstay of children’s tv I grew up with:

> without using a bunch of excess thread context resources

If the threads are cheap, there is no point in making this distinction, which greatly simplifies the language. And they can be, we just need programming languages designed for that.
> Ticketmaster now requires text message phone number verification, but they can bypass this by buying “Mobile Virtual Network Operator” phone numbers in bulk from eBay

I’m surprised SMS verification is this ineffective at testing for “human-ness”.
Why is HN so opposed to people making money?

He's literally made probably under $500k in revenue. And he's Vietnamese -- so that's really a fortune there.

Touch screens are actually incredibly cheap off the shelf components compared to all of the bespoke physical buttons and dials required to kit out a car.
The superstition of just recompense / Karma is fundamentally different, in that it is , in concept, omniscient, even of your thoughts. Also, it’s justice will be meted out by “fate” so the mind automatically equates outcomes with causes based on your moral compass, establishing a state of perceived equilibrium which you are incentivo used to balance in your favor, as “good things come to good people”.

Surveillance is blind to minor transgressions, supporting the idea that you can slight people and be a crappy human without consequences, and it is also far from omniscient, and can be specifically blind under circumstances that you may control. More so it can be wielded against other people by creating “scenes” that promote a narrative that harms them. It is not an judge of character, but rather of appearances.

Of course the fox is to install a strong moral character in the home, by way of teaching rather than training, but unfortunately many parents give similar attention to their children as they would a beloved pet, so that is not at all something that can be expected.

TL;DR it's expensive in Sydney. Lot's of speculation and no real solutions...

I live in Tel Aviv and actually found that refreshing. We've been in a housing bubble since 2000. Here the main claim is that since the country is small, prices will always go up. This is BS since if you step out of Tel Aviv prices are still higher but fall drastically. This also shows it's BS, if there's one thing Australia has it's land.

This is due to government decisions in development. The problem is that these policies take a decade+ to show the full impact and the political incentive is problematic.
Some months ago I thought I was just feeling insecure when my fiance would just be on her phone at odd hours, until I decided to take a chance to know, knowing is better than self doubts and it was exactly what happened when I employed the services of this particular hacker I came across by chance to help check my wife’s phone into. Now I know when she’s telling the truth and how to curtail her, I think it is not a drastic step if it’ll make you feel better.
My life got better, I stopped using my precious time to bother about her indiscretions and channeled my energy positively.

The blue ribbon chef was said to be the cream of the cream, so the restaurant owner was happy for him to have white card over the place. He arranged an outside the work of fatty liver, a main course of rooster of wine with eat all, and as the blow of mercy: burned cream; the full menu was a feat of strength! He made sure to wish the diners good appetite. However, when the owner visited from her foot on the ground she turned into a terrible child and demanded mouth amusers and crescents. She hated the decorative objects of art made of chewed paper.

Discover How to Get Up to 25% Off AWS
Recently, I needed a solution that would allow me to save money when using cloud services, including Amazon Web Services (AWS). I began to search for ways to get a discount on AWS and possibly make payments in cryptocurrency.

During my research, I came across Umbrelly Cloud. This innovative solution offers a discount of up to 25% on AWS services. For me, this was a real discovery, as I realized that I could significantly reduce expenses on cloud resources.

But what really amazed me was the ability to pay for AWS services in cryptocurrency. This made the payment process not only secure and anonymous but also eliminated extra fees from bank intermediaries.

Moreover, Umbrelly Cloud provides a cashback program. For attracting customers to AWS, you can earn additional income. The discount of up to 25% provided by Umbrelly Cloud can be considered as cashback that you can withdraw to your bank card or in cryptocurrency.

Thus, Umbrelly Cloud has become a real lifesaver and a partner for me in optimizing expenses for cloud resources. This solution allows me to save money and generate additional income simultaneously. I'm confident it will be beneficial to others who are looking for ways to make cloud computing more cost-effective and efficient
Yeah, I've seen it done, and I use it when needed. Many/most compilers won't touch the output file until they've done a syntax check so they don't usually need it, but if you're redirecting something from stdout, you'll have a blank file often as you develop, and quickly realize the benefit of temp files.
Yep, I know people in the "boring" industries, making software or running the marketing for plumbers, electricians, med spas, etc. They're at 6 or more figures a month doing that, and they're in industries most software engineers won't dare look.
10x that rate and we'll talk
Let's not forget that last year ETH fulfilled a promise and switched from PoW to PoS. Effectively decimating the entire GPU PoW mining industry almost overnight. This reduced crypto power usage significantly. The developers executed open heart surgery on a multi billion $ patient with live coverage, and it went off pretty much without a hitch. The complaint is no longer if they can do something ground breaking, but when.

All the while, AI is also taking over. Businesses are slurping up power from everywhere, without any regard for the environment. We hear about companies purchasing 10,000 H100's, but we don't hear about how it is going to be powered. Nobody outside the industry is talking about the fact that you can't get any meaningful (>5MW) data center space in the US because it has all been taken. It isn't being taken for generating hashes that secure billions in value, but for generating images and content... I'm not sure which one is more wasteful.
This is why remote work is so important. It’s not about not going to the office. It’s about breaking real estate.

IBM built its entire blockchain business around the idea of logistics and ran expensive TV ads promoting the IBM blockchain for years.

The problem is that for all that was promised, in reality what we have are a few very specialized niche uses. The fundamental issue with the blockchain is that the case for a “trustless” database as opposed to outsourcing it to a single trustworthy are very limited. And the cases where the benefits outweigh the significant operational complexities are even more limited.

And that’s before you consider that 50%+1 attacks exist. So even the “trustless”ness is vulnerable to attacks.
