Robotics is one such field. I work with tons of PhDs, and self driving car companies hire them like crazy. In certain organizations, you need a PhD to advance as an Applied Scientist. A masters won't cut it.

I wonder if you could do it with horn. I'm not sure how you'd make the hollow bits of blocks. But it has the right sort of properties. Relatedly, see:

Fair enough. I suppose I can see it from the VIN side as "decoding" it.

My point is that three of four download buttons are links not download buttons.
When it's fully throttling the clock rate to limit temperature, it's still faster than a Pi 4 is capable of being. It's inaccurate to characterize that as a "crawl to a stop."
Everyone's given you examples of urgent/unimportant. Here's an example of Important/not-urgent:

You are successfully selling a product at a profit. You have identified an inefficiency in how the product is made; if you fix it, you increase your net margins by 50%.

That's super important, as you're leaving a lot of money on the table! However, whether that inefficiency is fixed immediately or somewhere down the road makes little difference in terms of the payout once it is fixed.
This is a projection. Economics has done better to improve reproducibility of research over several decades than any other social science.
Also great for YC, Algolia is W14 batch
Lensm, a tool for viewing disassembly
Cameras are becoming smaller, cheaper, and higher fidelity alongside parallel improvements in storage, network bandwidth, and batteries. Projecting out long enough, and you are left with the likelihood of cheap ubiquitous and even microscopic surveillance tech. Many new cars are now continuously recording everything in their surroundings. Meta's new Smart Glasses mean individuals will be doing the same.

Not to mention that satellite technology already exists that could see the zits on your nose.

Deepfakes will be solved through a number of means. As a very basic example, the concept of timestamping and sending the hashes to a trusted verifier can help prove that a particular piece of content was produced no later than the timestamp. And quite a lot of knowledge can be gained just from certainty about when something was produced.
ZeroMQ is a fantastic piece of software that will still be in use decades from now. Also an amazing example of a very intuitive C API.
Not terribly surprising. The time in my life that I was most on top of my finances was when I was using the old YNAB which required manually entering all purchases and manually reconciling your account. The effort put in to keep on top of it made me hyper aware of what I was spending and where. It was great, but it takes too much effort.

I don't know if better tooling could help, pointing out subscriptions and things like that so you can easily check if you are still using it and cancelling. How do we fix this without requiring everyone to manually keep a checkbook.
Any job that is highly research oriented is going to appreciate a Ph.D.

Whether it becomes a practical requirement, or formal requirement, would depend. If it's a high paid position, in a small research group, of an established field, then Ph.D.s are likely to be very important.

If its a position in a large research group in a new and fast changing field, then its likely to be more open to anyone with unusual or interesting promise, but still highly value Ph.D's.

As for fields: research in engineering, finance, economics, device physics, chemistry, biology, pharmaceuticals, etc. Anywhere the research involves highly technical knowledge, and a pre-existing track record of original thinking, personal initiative, that have produced objective results, are very important.

"Research" is a thought and project management meta/leadership skill, on top of being highly educated and talented in an area. Ph.D.'s provide the extra time and social context to fill out those skills and demonstrate a track record.

Yep, even just having a process for offering escrow makes you seem like a more mature/reliable company, as opposed to one guy who had never encountered the question before.
I've seen "HTTP transcript" used in this sense.

Rather than a general term, though, what you probably want to focus on — especially because you want to "keep a record" — is the common file format used for these: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HAR_(file_format)

(It was created and initially supported by web browsers, but many CLI/GUI dev tools should be capable of emitting HARs as well, often "off to the side" in some logging directory while also presenting separate, pretty info on stdout.)
Also, there are multiple SATA to m2 interfaces to get more ports on small PCs.

https://www.ebay.com/itm/203655558873 (no relation with the seller)

Although multiple SATA to USB3 cases should be a viable option too; I plan to build my next home server using one of them paired to a mini PC with lower power requirements than the one I use now.
Out of curiosity, how did you prepare your Security, Privacy & Terms? Did you use any paid generator or did you ask a lawyer to prepare it for you?

Look: Apple fabs good cores. As a matter of fact, they're pretty much the only company even attempting to make ARM cores. They have lots of money, and good designs on dense silicon usually equals fast chips.

This is a brutally facetious comparison though. Nevermind the obvious ARM/x86 disparity, or even the node difference in fabrication; you're not even comparing mobile cores to each other. What kind of serious comparison takes desktop wattages and compares them to a smartphone SOC?

If you take the chip the parent mentioned (7640U) instead of picking a random desktop option, the gap closes considerably. 7640U scores 2559 in single-core, which scales very well for multicore workloads. Given that it's a 6-core chip with a 30w max TDP, a single core probably couldn't draw more than 5w either.
I assume they plan to make up for missing revenue with increased sales taxes...
Is 5 years really the bar for "lots of experience?" I feel like this is a byproduct of current (last 10 years or so) frontend/bootcamp dev mentality that you're a senior engineer after a 6-week course and 2-3 years of experience at a consulting body shop.

Even if you get a PhD your working career is going to be around 35 years. Add 5-10 if you're done after college, and even more if you're not doing college.

I think we need to stop pretending people are senior when they're 10-15% of the way through their career.

The dark patterns around auto-pay are part of the problem.

One that bit me a couple of times this year was my bank's offering the ability to set an auto-pay limit.

Which you would think means "auto-pay the lesser of the account balance or the specified limit," to help smooth out payments for a larger purchase.

But instead it means, "short-circuit auto-pay if the account balance rises above the limit." It's easy to miss the notification about this, which blends in with other emails from the bank. Voila, late charge!
This was my reaction to it too, and that was after a few days diving pretty deep into it.
It is a preview feature right now, so the playground is adding --enable-preview. (there is a toggle for that.)

java --enable-preview Main.java

Because compared to the alternatives, they significantly easier.

Attribution is arguably the biggest challenge in marketing. If you know that someone bought because of an ad you know you can spend more on that ad, if you know no one is buying from it you know not to.

With almost all digital marketing there's some amount of tracking, not necessarily of users, but of ads. When you make a sale you know which ad it came from. Now that's not perfect attribution, users might take a few views to click through, may go direct rather than clicking through, or may click through multiple different ads, but it's pretty good.

With non-digital marketing there's nearly zero information. Billboards, TV adverts, magazines, radio, even podcasts which are digital, etc. The way that attribution is done is based on times of day (did you get a spike after your TV advert aired), or it's based on location (did you get a spike in the area of the billboard). Sometimes discount codes are used for attribution (use code TUBE10 to save £10 on your next order), but those only work for some types of product and users forget more often than not (yes, even with discounts).

Marketing on Google, Facebook, affiliate marketplaces, etc, is all automatable, and more accurate, more precise, and therefore it's easier to understand marketing ROI, and easier to justify more spend.
hugops engaged, thanks for your efforts running that for us!
The implicit statement in your comment is that people have the right to manage their own property any way they want. I think this is short sighted when the city, i.e. your neighbours, pay so much taxes to take care of the area around your property. They should have some say on what goes on in the property. For example, maybe people don't want to live next to a hotel when they didn't move in next to one?
Algolia is YC backed, and HN is run by YC.

Algolia ex-CEO is now a partner at YC.

So the connection between the two is pretty strong, this will be resolved before the end of the day.
Aside from everyone else's input, I would also like to add that smaller companies usually come with the added benefit of adaptability, quick iterations/improvements, and clients' have direct access to the key decision maker which are all great points sought after by customers. It's classic interview 101: turn a seeming weakness into a strength.

As long as you have a long term vision of where you want to take the company (plan for the next quarter, next semester, one year plan, pipeline of possible improvements, potential pipeline of clients, hiring plan of who and when if necessary, etc.), and can communicate this in a reassuring way without puffery you can come across as trustworthy and even respectable to do business with. Customers just want to know you are the best value option within the category/niche. Part of being the best option is the reassurance that you:
1. have a product that meets their needs (product-market fit)
2. have long-term potential (so they don't have to worry about you shutting down and them wasting time looking for another alternative) <- depends on your niche
3. will be readily available to lend customer support

You can answer with the truth and then redirect that question back at them and ask things like:
- what do you look for specifically in a company?
- Does the number of employees affect the metrics you are trying to achieve or need help with?
(the answers you get will give you a better idea of how to adapt your pitch based on their priorities, metrics, & expectations)

In the end, if they aren't happy with the truth, you get out of this all the wiser and still win. Good luck!

Personally, I find it problematic philosophically that others can unilaterally take your property, but I understand it is practically necessary and justified by agreement to the social contract being implied by one's continued voluntary presence in such polity.
In the fall of 1972, President Nixon announced that "the rate of increase of inflation was decreasing". Probably the first time a sitting president used the 3rd derivative to increase the chances of reelection.

Thanks for the explanation. It'll be interesting to see how this strategy performs with our current API - it has a few rough edges that stem from being designed for consumption by internal clients only at this stage.
As the current AAA games are as playable as mediocre movies, and the movies themselves are nothing but soulless remakes, I'd prefer to get some public domain comic books from https://comicbookplus.com and get some stories from Ditko, the non-superhero based ones, but the ones from mistery/scifi themes, kinda like a comic version of The Twilight Zone.

On proper gaming, most AAA games are lacking against Slashem, IF, csokoban and casual and libre games like Trigger Rally where the playability it's just there, even if the graphics are two decades behind.
You can find a few of the negative comments by searching for "the orange site" which is the term the detractors of HackerNews use for the website. They are not completely wrong in my opinion. I've seen comment threads get so derailed here and end up defending truly awful things. For example, a couple of years ago there was a thread about a new custom genetic therapy for children with a certain genetic condition that causes their bodies to eventually shut down (forgot the name, but it's a condition that disproportionally affects a certain group of Jewish people). It didn't take long for a significant part of the thread to become people advocating for eugenics.
this is interesting and sounds like fun. is there anywhere in particular you’re looking for the top releases for 20 years ago?

I feel a bit nerd sniped: On Linux PIDs are only unique within a PID namespace. But that doesn't matter because the entire point of a PID namespace is to isolate processes.

But it's worth mentioning because it can mitigate the problem you've laid out. If you have a long running process that may need to kill its children, you can start with within a new PID namespace such that it may only kill its children (or descendant).
Thanks for sharing this, until now I hadn’t made the mental leap that their “benevolence” had a secondary effect of pushing up revenue.

The first thing I do for any credit card is enroll in autopay. You can always make additional payments and pay off in full, but late fees and late payments are arguably more disastrous for your long-term credit than accruing interest for a cycle.
I bought a cheap little air quality meter recently. It has a power socket and battery compartment on the back. The manual says "DO NOT PUT BATTERIES IN THE BATTERY COMPARTMENT, THEY WILL NOT WORK". I would guess they reused the case from a previous product that supported battery power, in order to save tooling costs.
Wait… how long has that search been there?!

I'm happy that JEP 441 was added to Java.

// As of Java 21
Integer i = ...
switch (i) {
case -1, 1 -> ... // Special cases
case Integer j when j > 0 -> ... // Positive integer cases
case Integer j -> ... // All the remaining integers
}

I should stop to talk badly of Java based on my old memories of Java 6... Maybe they should do like C++ and call it modern Java.

There needs to be a livable part of the planet which isn't a country and never can be but individuals and expelled people can go there. No military or aid interference of any kind, no taxes or laws but also no import/export commerce, communication or organizing of any government or militia/military will be allowed. Imagine the wild west but wilder and more "mad max". Patagonia or parts of australia or andes would be nice.
How does this work? How does an investor generate outsized returns while giving away equity without charging someone a far higher rent payment than market? And if they are charging a far higher rent payment than market, why wouldn't a person be better off saving the difference on their own?
I think people can train themselves to get up at any time, even in the middle of the night, but I have doubts that they'd all be fully alert at that hour even if they did it for months or years. I can train myself to wake up early, but my brain doesn't fully "wake up" until much later in the day. It might be genetic (https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2015/05/150514085748.h...) and there are groups looking at drugs to help night owls adapt to the artificial constraints modern society imposes on them.
I don't know what it is, but autopay causes me so much mental load. Instead I go over my bills every two weeks, following the tune of my paycheck.

Every two weeks I check all credit cards, pay my mortgage, utilities, etc.
Libertarians as an example. I don't agree with them. I think many of the people objecting to taxes have a rather rosy view of the times when taxes didn't exist.

To me it's like similar to full communism, both of them mean well but in practice don't work well.

If you get more out of a system than someone else you should be probably willing or want too contribute more to it's upkeep.

Well I would think that the normal thing to do is to hire a chemist to do chemical engineering... isn't that how it works?

You're right, though, that most people doing software engineering today have not studied computer science. Not sure if it is always a good thing to not have at least one computer scientist in a software engineering team :-).
hn.algolia.com used to return a pair of cloudflare IPs: 104.16.46.55 and 104.16.45.55. Requesting hn.algolia.com from these IPs now results in an "Origin DNS error" from Cloudflare.

I interpret this to mean that there is another record missing, as well: whatever the origin was set to.
It's not as applicative in this case, at least for the UK.

As a software developer based in the UK, the inflation mentioned in the article is felt very deeply by myself. The article cited 7.2% as the price inflation rate, which is close to the rate of 7.6% calculated by the Office for National Statistics based on my household spending[1] and is consistent with my personal experience.

On top of that, the UK Treasury adjusted the personal tax threshold policy back in April this year, basically freezing the tax bands to no longer rise with the inflation, which caused a direct 3.3% hit on my income. This freeze is estimated to be the largest over 50 years according to BBC[2], but since we are discussing media sensationalism, so maybe that's not something that would convince you.

Anyway, maybe the situation is different elsewhere, but I do find this article more truthful than not from where I stand.

Yeah. 20ms is more than a full frame at 60hz. This sort of delay is unacceptable in 3D games! And here we’re talking about inserting a character into the data structure used to keep track of edits to a text file!

It’s also ignorant of the heavily pipelined nature of input and output on modern computers. If you add up all of the latency from the time you press a key on the keyboard to the time a character appears on the screen — even if you subtract all the time spent inside your text editor — it adds up to many ms of delay. Now the author thinks it’s okay to add another 20-100ms to that just for the basic data structure holding the text? No thank you!

Edit: I have to add this link to a classic post by Dan Luu [1]. The Apple IIe leads the pack with 30ms latency from keystroke down to character on the screen. 20ms for a data structure (in the key-to-screen critical path) on a 2023 computer, even if it only occurs 1% of the time, is totally unacceptable.

One thing that has really helped me is that you can set up the Apple Card so that it sends a notification to your phone for _every single purchase_, whether one-off or recurring. Of course you can turn this off if it annoys you, but I have found it's good to leave it on: it makes CC purchases "hurt" like spending cash does, and occasionally reminds me of recurring costs I would otherwise have forgotten.

Probably other cards let you do this as well, although I'm guessing they don't make it as frictionless as Apple's does (where IIRC it's the default), because it's not in the interest of other CC providers for you to be noisily reminded every time you spend money.

That is not a plausible explanation. Capitalists were no less greedy 10 years ago. So, something else must have changed.
I’m pretty close to a spreadsheet expert, I categorize pivot tables as just quick and dirty adhoc/disposable data visualization and never would use it as something for presentation or where styling mattered.

I usually use it to quickly find unexpected values in the underlying data columns. Although with spill formulas like =unique() I’m using it less and less for this.

I find often people wanting more out of it, are really asking for Power Query. Which is there, just a lot of people are intimidated by. (Maybe not HN, but general population)
