According to the openwrt wiki the WRT3200 and WRT32X have identical hardware [1][2]

I tried several patches but nothing helped. As I understand it it's the closed source abandoned (?) WiFi firmware that's the issue. I suspect it can't handle interference , which which is why it works great for some and horrible for others.

I see there are new commits on the driver repository [3], so maybe I'll try again but I don't have my hopes up...

>Why do so many people think they are in a bullshit job?

There is probably some truth to the rumor.
Israeli military says troops make first ground raids into Gaza
Hey, I do this as well with a Qotom mini PC and it is utterly fantastic. Home Assistant runs in a VM and the OpenWRT part handles WireGuard for remote access.

One problem that I have with it is that I'm running qemu-system-x86_64 in an init script which creates a tap0 interface and adds it to the br-lan interface. If I ever restart the networking these interfaces are removed from the bridge. I briefly looked for some sort of hook to run on network restart but didn't find one. I'd love to be able to run brctl after a network restart to add the interfaces back into the bridge.
You misunderstand me. I think Java's great. Java applets were quite bloated. moreso than Electron. You can still make Java Applets if you want, but people have moved on.
Well, King makes almost twice as much money as Blizzard iirc, so I would say that they're focusing their resources in the right places.

Making $60 desktop games is just a horrible business to be in, the development costs are too high, and the return is too low. Why would you make a AAA title when you can make Candy Crush? It only makes sense to divert resources where the ROI picture is prettier.
that is the problem. you cannot get significant money to get anywhere. 100k is nothing to start a business. if you try to get 1MM you will personally be liable for 200k which is a huge deal in europe where salaries are low and it might ruin your finances for life and you cannot get rid of it. meanwhile banks play very risky in the market and when they screw up nobody is liable.

I think finding this kind of work involves sharing your goals with a lot of people.

In my case I started writing stories of automated farming communes, compiled my writing in to a zine about a better world, had 260 copies printed and handed them all out, got my then dream job at Google X robotics, then ended up handing a copy of the zine to a robotics engineer and philanthropist who now funds my open source work as we push towards continuous crowd funding as our long term model.

Your story will go differently (lol) but what I can say is that defining your vision, building the appropriate skills, and telling everyone that you can what you’d like to do probably helps a lot. You may have to stick with the unfulfilling job for now, but you can try to build an exit strategy.
Until SMR (small modular reactors) are available at Fly-in, fly-out camps and mine sites, they will use diesel or hydrogen. That will take at least a decade.

Alberta is going heavy into blue hydrogen. For them it's a win-win. They transition profit to natural gas (better than tar oil sands) and hydrogen is cheaper to produce, providing a base level of supply for heavy vehicles and the like.
but they were using a shell script in this blog though (and, yes, stat(2) is the way to go there)

> 30 years later these look rather cute and twee.

This sounds like a classic example of "Seinfeld isn't funny" or "The Beatles aren't original".

Yes, Kai's look feels dated and overwrought. That's because when it came out, it was so radically innovative that it created a huge graphic design fad. It was emulating nothing, and it feels cute and twee because it was so successful that it's seared in everyone's consciousness.

> Definitely part of that late 90s bright-colours-and-glass OMG Internet aesthetic

It was one of the primary originators of that aesthetic. Our whole mental picture of the 90s would be very different without Kai Krause.

It's funny how the "established" media will attempt to beat down new arrivals to the arena in an attempt to protect their turf.
Please don't call my point of view embarrassing -- that's uncalled for. You can disagree, but let's not make it personal.

Of course it's a console war thing, it's always been a console war thing. That's literally the definition of the market we're talking about here.

What the rest of Microsoft's business does, or the rest of Sony's business does, outside of gaming, has nothing to do with anything here. Buying Activision isn't helping Microsoft with Office 365, nor is Office going to bring people to Call of Duty. The same as having "The Last of Us" as a PS exclusive isn't helping Sony sell cameras or TV's.

Edit: I mean, if you think Microsoft ought to be forced to spin off its Xbox division as a totally separate company, as part of breaking up the tech giants into 50 different companies, then that's a totally different conversation, and Activision is neither here nor there.

But as long as we're accepting that Microsoft is allowed to compete in gaming in the first place, then purchasing Activision is simply what it needs to be allowed to do in order to compete fairly against Sony.
It's funny that your first example is real estate, when I've read many stories this past year about how private equity is buying up lots of residential homes, and driving the prices even higher than what inflation accounts for. It was a huge story recently that Zillow was trying to buy (and flip) homes, based on their pricing algorithm. Thankfully, they failed miserably.
Thank you for that information. In the future I'll direct my criticism more precisely. To clarify, it is mainly copyright laws I have a bone to pick with. Trademarks make sense. Patent laws sort of make sense in some circumstances, less in others.
I mean, N=3, but I've made decent money on smaller exits.

The relevant metric is not exit price, it's ratio of exit price to pref stack; i.e. raise $40M and sell for $50M, founder is worse than if they raised $2M and sold for $10M.
hey! ceo & co-founder here, some key differentiators. It definitely is a busy space, but we feel like there's some key differentiators:

- modern design
- deeply integrated rest api client
- free hosting with an apidocumentation.com subdomain
- offline search with fuse.js
- and more!

We also have a full api docs platform, where you can:
- have full customization so you get on brand docs
- subdomain & custom domain hosting

We put a lot of time to make these products integrated, cause what we see right now with current solutions is deep fragmentation.

I agree on most tools making it worse, long term we aim to make this better with a git sync feature and docstring parsing! :)

100k arr works out to

- 8334 per month

- 1923 per week

- 385 per business day

Lat's assume SaaS or similar subscription service. If I sell a subscription product with a few price tiers, say free, 10$/mo, 50$/mo, and 500$/mo (and maybe a hidden tier for corporate customers that amounts to 1000$/mo on average). Let's assume most of my customers are in the free tier, 95%. The remaining 5% are stratified across 10, 50, 500, and 1000 (maybe following an inverse logarithmic curve because people are allergic to spending money -- -ln(x/1000) + 1). The following scale factors apply to each price tier:

- 1 x 1000/mo
- 2 x 500/mo
- 4 x 50/mo
- 6 x 10/mo

13 customers gets me to 2260/mo, so I'd need about 4 times that many customers to hit ~8000/mo. This comes to about 50 paying customers to hit 100k arr.

And now I need to sort out what I have that 50 people would be willing to pay those various amounts for protracted periods of time.

But what do I have that people want to buy? I can sell my time as a developer working on someone else's product and make about 100k arr. I can build a product -- and I assume most folks on this board are here in this camp, that they want to build something and own it. I could sell information products (ugh) or other kinds of information. What else can I do?

I'm curious how people with multiple launched products that make money managed to discover their original product. Was it an accident? Copious amounts of market research? Cross-industry experience that allowed them to build for non-engineers?
The irony being that it's extremely trivial to completely/permanently bypass MDM on a Mac, even if you have an M1/M2.

I once asked the main dev how to generate images for Buffalo routers, since I wanted to build from source. That particular component was not available and only he could build an image capable of being uploaded through the stock admin interface.

It wasn't the end of the world since a standard openwrt image could be loaded over tftp, but it was annoying that it was impossible to recreate the images available for download.
What I'm concerned about is a system that flags me for a crime based on a database I can't audit based on mechanisms with an entirely too high false positive rate.

Because the database can't be audited by anyone but a select group we have to trust that it only contains actual bad images. I do not trust that such databases don't also contain images that are embarrassing to powerful/connected people. I also do not trust such databases don't contain false positives.

The sort of people that are super zealous about a topic aren't simultaneously super rational and objective about that topic. There's a non-zero probability that those databases contain lewd yet entirely legal images that the submitters just didn't like.

Because of the false positive rate a photo of my dog might trigger an alarm and then my phone sends an automated message to the police. I'm then told by proponents there will be some manual review. I have to then hope that the local DA doesn't have an election coming up and wants to push a "tough on crime" message so charges me with a crime despite a review.

In short these scanning systems require far too much unearned trust. They also present a slippery slope thanks to the incendiary nature of the topic. Today it's CSAM but what undesirable content will the systems be used for tomorrow? Such systems require trust in the stewards of today and tomorrow. Do you want people of the opposite ideology to you in charge of such systems? Do you trust they'll never be abused? Do you trust well meaning people never make mistakes?

I do not trust in any of those things. I'm not worried about myself doing actual bad things, I'm worried that demonstrable false positive rates will ruin my life with the mere accusation of doing something bad.
If someone is breaking into houses in my neighborhood and a ring camera is able to identify and help apprehend the person, I would want that to happen.

These kinds of guerrilla techniques can work, but they only work once or maybe a few times. I'm inclined to believe they worked at that time and in that context but you're right it wouldn't work today.

If you want to read about some things that wouldn't ever work today, but that absolutely worked when they were first tried, read about Marc Benioff's guerrilla marketing for Salesforce when they were just getting started.

Remember, immigration spam actually worked back in the day!
>It's a bullshit job when, if you don't do it, or don't do it well, there really aren't any meaningful consequences for anyone.

OTOH, sometimes if you do an outstanding job with great pride, performing beyond expectations, there aren't any meaningful consequences for anyone either.

When both are true you've really got a double-ringer.

It was pioneered there. Not been able to buy a modern EV without it. Ostensibly for range anxiety early on, kept for the sweet revenue. The GM EV1 and Tesla roadster? were probably the last without it.
Cool to see this.

I hate redocly and swagger UI , and all of "enterprisey" offering on an open standard like OpenAPI.
That would imply that Tesla would implement industry standard CarPlay/Android Auto support and we can't have that.
Heat batteries were tried in furnaces a couple of decades ago, but they used some sort of high heat capacity bricks and forced the house air through them. As GP asks, the matter of maintenance was forgotten.

Recently I heard someone is trying this again with water heaters. The working fluid has roughly four times the heat capacity of water, so your “water” heater is substantially a fluid heater with either no water tank or a very small one. Incoming water is heated with the fluid, and the fluid is heated on demand. Only the heat exchanger has maintenance concerns.

Driving the whole thing with a heat pump makes the math a little more fiddly, since peak pump efficiency and peak power prices overlap some of the same parts of the day. You’re calculating BTUs per dollar, not watt hours per dollar.
Actually makes sense to me. Netflix is probably missing out on all those sweet direct merch profits (I'm assuming they get some from the IP they sell, but they might be able to take larger cuts this way).

This is probably a market test to see how worthwhile selling this merch will be. Although I'm surprised they didn't try a Netflix online shop first. Maybe its also an experiences market grab/test.
We’re talking about an article which also talked about the allure of growing billion dollar companies which YC uses to recruit. My point was simply that there’s a LOT of marketing for “be your own boss” concepts which sound like you’re a lot better off than, say, the typical immigrant who works hard and ends up with a small business paying a decent but not noteworthy income. Those narratives rarely end with “you too could own a laundromat and convenience store in Flushing!”

It’s not just about setting realistic expectations but also recognizing how often there are opportunities which only people with assets can take. For example, being married to someone high income with health insurance means that you are able to take a chance even if it won’t pay the bills immediately whereas someone else is limited to what they can do on the weekends.

People are willing to override a lot of their ethical concerns (and accept potential long term pain in favour of short term gain) when it comes to slightly cheaper oil, gas, labour or any other need and want.

That ~20% varies by year but is still ~1.5 Billion dollars per year which is a major studio representing a long tail of properties that come out infrequently. More importantly you need to consider future franchises not just their current properties:

Caesar, Crash Bandicoot, Diablo, DJ Hero, Empire Earth, Gabriel Knight, Geometry Wars, Guitar Hero, Gun, Hearthstone, Heroes of the Storm, Hexen, Interstate ’76, King’s Quest, Laura Bow Mysteries, The Lost Vikings, Overwatch, Phantasmagoria, Pitfall, Police Quest, Prototype, Quest for Glory, Singularity, Skylanders, Solider of Fortune, Space Quest, Spyro the Dragon, StarCraft, Tenchu, TimeShift, Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater, True Crime, Zork, and probably a few others I missed.

This is an issue with the productivity gains from automation being siphoned off in general, and we've been boiling that frog for a century plus. We're gonna have to figure out a more sophisticated economic model before too long but it will probably have to be a painful lesson.
What does a company's past failures have to do with whether its current strategy is sound? Do you think Apple shouldn't have been allowed to acquire NeXT when Steve Jobs came back, just because Apple's previous CEO's had done a bad job?

It's not "stealing" anything. It's acquiring a company and paying a fair price for it.

Playstation has way more exclusives than Xbox. This is just getting closer to leveling the playing field. There's nothing wrong with that. The more equal in size major market participants are, the better off it tends to be for consumers.

It is also Porsche, a company that prides itself on long-term support. Just look at the iconic Porsche tractor commercial. They want their car to work as well tomorrow as it does today. They know that communication standards change. Every "connected" car will, in a decade or two, be a disconnected/bricked car.
While there are softer subject escape hatches at a school like MIT (and I've known some very smart people have taken them while remaining in technology-related areas generally), it's hard to avoid math and hard science/engineering topics in general. And there are a lot of straight A students in high school (and most people at MIT were at least close to that) who were fine with memorized plug and chug high school physics suddenly hit stuff they just can't handle and struggle to just pass the class.

In my experience, MIT is actually pretty good about wanting to help students work their way through once they've been admitted. But there's definitely a firehose aspect to a lot of it a lot of incoming students aren't prepared for--even leaving aside a lot of the distractions and other elements of suddenly being away at college.

Then they added a second customer and started to scale.
