non.io | remote | worldwide | part-time | iOS developer

I'm looking for an iOS dev to create an iOS app for non.io, which I soft-launched on HN a couple months ago: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36296695

Non.io is a social networking site with a pay-what-you-want subscription model that gets distrubted evenly between everything you upvote that month. The site funds itself by taking a flat $1 out of every subscription per month.

Work would be hourly paid, with no equity, though it would be open source.

At some point down the line, I will be implementing a financial model which will incentivize 3rd party app developers. I'll share a % of the server fee a user pays with whatever their primary way of accessing the site is. While the work I would be paying you for would be for a base example of the app, you would be able to fork that and develop more frontend features on your own in the future for something like equity should the site take off / should you wish to.
How is that related to people with disabilities being given free passes?
The way I run my NAS I have a different user for different purposes so just install modules user level with --break-system-packages. Is there a better way?
Yes, mine is not solved in theory but is solved in practice. The ringing is still there if I listen for it, but it’s effectively unnoticeable and I’m now unbothered by it.

The solution that worked for my was basically “acceptance and commitment therapy” - I think I learned it from a book written by a Dr Russell or something like that.

Would recommend, am very glad I did it. It seems kind of kooky though, it’s almost like you pretend the tinnitus is a part of you and you have a conversation with it and welcome it and all that kinda stuff over time, and then eventually it just kinda stops being bothersome. Doesn’t really make sense, but worked well.
I'm surprised sqlfluff hasn't been mentioned yet. Perhaps not a comprehensive list, but it's worked for everything I've thrown at it. There's an ANSI keyword list [0], and then dialect-specific lists for everything from DB2 [1] to Snowflake [2].

I used to be a DSL CLEC. I know from personal experience what kind of conversations, and regulatory interventions, it takes to get a monopoly incumbent common carrier (such as US West, or SpaceX) to lease their network at fair rates and to provide reasonable service for those rates. I am gleeful because the groundwork we laid down in the CLEC days continues to pay off decades later. That was a lot of very hard work.

I am all for innovating in carrier networks, and I’m all for charging for access through those networks — so in that, my motives and Starlink’s align! And since Starlink makes the same dollars per user whether the user is T-Mobile or a Local MVNO, I don’t see how innovation in their satellite network suffers in any way.

> There is really no difference between video and still here, it's just that it's more normalized at the consumer level to deal with RAW formats at this point for stills.

Fun trick: convert ProRes RAW to cDNG. You now have 59.94 raw DNGs per second to choose a photo from.
Yes, although if you think about it a bit:

With a VPN you're hoping there's no logs at all, and it's pretty easy for a VPN vendor - entirely by accident - to keep some logs around. And then a search warrant lands, they look around, find the logs, and the promise is broken. And it's entirely possible for that to happen by accident. So if I pay for a commercial VPN that claims they don't keep logs, I'm gambling on their honesty and competency.

With a search engine you're hoping they don't bias search results to favour advertisers, sell your search results to advertisers, etc. And that's not something you can really do by accident. If Kagi is being honest, then they're not accepting money to modify search results, nor are they logging my searches, or building up a profile of my searches, or modifying seearch results based on that profile, etc. Even if it turned out Kagi goofed and really were logging all my searches and tying them to my payment account (maybe, eg, for perfectly innnocent reasons, like solving a bug), that doesn't actually change their value proposition to me all. They're either super evil and lying about everything they're doing, or they're fine, even if it turns out they're cutting a couple of corners.

Kagi is putting themselves in a position which is inherently easier to trust than a VPN vendor (or early Google), due to the nature of the business model.
Kagi seems cool to me and I appreciate what they’re doing but I’ve been using DDG for years now and find myself falling back to Google less and less. It has improved quite a bit for my personal use and I can’t imagine spending $100/year+ for search. I’d be game if it was a little less.

As a teen, the church I grew up with had a very active youth community center. There was always some group of teens hanging out there, always events going on practically every night.

At the church I'm at now there's something happening at the church at least four days a week if not more often. The playground has kids playing just about every day it's open. There are small groups of people meeting up there constantly.
Don't Say Velcro Video-The hook is hook and loop

Duh! Why did I not know this?

But then I saw the Velcro video again. Oh my! The hook is about hook and loop.
I only looked at the first 15 or so for my town and they were almost all relevant. Maybe city name dependent?
All histories are a simplification of reality into a digestible and memorable form. It is never the complete story. The further back you go, the more of a caricature historical figures become.
The article is behind a paywall after the first several paragraphs. Based on the title and what's available, here's what I have to offer:

Children should learn the beauty of mathematics. But like any subject, don't needlessly force them where they don't want to go.

Today's culture in America seems to push STEM above all else. This is good for setting students up to succeed financially in the world, but we should be encouraging our children to become well-rounded individuals in all regards. People can learn to code in college or later. But some things are very difficult outside of formative years:

- Having the experience of reading an influential book as a teenager

- Learn a foreign language at a young age

- Becoming highly proficient in a skill (playing an instrument, playing a sport)

Let kids focus on the wonders and joys of the liberal arts in childhood. Dose in some STEM here and there. But don't sit them down in front of a computer and convince them that typing computer code anti-socially is the way to become a well-rounded individual.

It's impossible to cure.

The 'ringing' sound people hear isn't actually a sound. It is how the brain processes signals produced by damaged Stereocilia.

If the 'ringing' is constant it means the cilia are permanently damaged. While it would, in theory, be possible to use surgery on the ear and some sort of lazer to completely remove all damaged cilia to avoid them outputting a damaged signal, this procedure would be incredibly invasive and risky. I don't believe it's ever been done and i would find it hard to believe any Otolaryngologist willing to try.
Which simulation software would you recommend?
The NPS doesn't control concessionaire prices. All of the problems with the private concessionaires of that want to make a profit, so they put as little money in as possible while setting prices as high as possible.

This sets such a dangerous precedent, and further emboldens those who contend that the Jewish influence in media and Industry (particularly in entertainment, Law, and Media) is absolute. And was portrayed by a John Stewart, himself a Jew, so poignantly [0] nearly 10 years ago--note how these two conflicts are still ongoing and ask yourself how we got here.

How this nation allows for the condemnation of the injustices of the Vietnam war, Afghanistan or Iraq under the premise of free speech but will not allow for those to oppose the vile acts unleashed by the IDF (an entirely different nations military) alone is why this should be condemned.

Say what you will about them voicing a poorly informed opinion if you must, but it ask yourself: should it lead to offers being revoked and if so what precedent does it set?

I get these are (often) the children of privilege and nepotism is what most have in common, but still, this is appalling: it's similar to what happened in Tokyo University during the student riots back in the late 60s during Vietnam, people are perplexed how they instilled such a conformist mindset in the abhorrent Japanese corporate culture, and blacklisting students was one of the main ways they did it.

I don't have a bias anymore, I was once pro-Palestinian after seeing the IDF use white phosphorus on children in Gaza but after withholding aid and the subsequent bombings during COVID in '21 I think somethings are rooted much deeper in the Human psyche and are beyond help when people are still willing to let people die for claims of the 'Holy Land,' you'd think that after so much death and despair they would have at least agreed to a ceasefire and allowed for aid to enter during a pandemic but were denied and then bombed. Even now I just see this as senseless violence and a waste of Human Life, but just like in Bucha there will be a narrative created about how this was warranted somehow.

I've been dealing with tinnitus for about a year now. The only thing I've found that helps is Ginko Biloba. I'm buying that at a "Dollar General" store so the source is iffy and so is the effectiveness, but it certainly does help.

My wife has a friend who told her just a few days ago that her husband has had some success toning his done by chewing Bay leaves. I've not tried that yet, but I will soon.

From what I've read there is still no "cure". But those two things may contain a clue that's worth looking for.

Doesn't this presuppose that all the information you need to predict the future of your time series is embedded in the past of those time series?

Don't most time series we would be interested in predicting (weather, prices, traffic volumes) tend to respond to things outside the history of the time series in question?

Or is the thesis here that we throw every random time series we can think of - wave height series from buoys in the San Francisco Bay, ticket sales from Taylor Swift concerts, Teslas per hour in the Holland tunnel, sales volume of MSFT... and get this thing to find the cross-correlated leading indicators needed so it can predict them all?
How I'm reading this - the argument is: we need timezones because, above all, we all want time to be fairly inline with daylight hours everywhere or at least some approximation of a 9-5 workday?

Eh, maybe. I'm not convinced.

If you have Starlink in a rural area, you’ll notice it always wants to point towards that one cell tower the distance.

Well decades before people didn't graduate with hundreds of thousands in debt. If you follow that chain and look at the colleges which have been replacing highly paid professors with adjunct professors paid little more per hour than people who make french fries its not professors sucking up those costs. It looks more like trying hard to minimize money paid to professors while charging what the market will bear wherein the price the market will bear is inherently distorted by huge piles of government money available that people are in turned obliged to borrow in order to break into their desired profession.

As with everything else we are currently screwing up we could do well to look at what smarter countries are doing.
Ask HN: Does anyone use a laptop as a thin client for programming?
I have a powerful laptop, but I find that I don't really need portability and high performance at the same time. As a result, I've been thinking of building a much more powerful desktop computer, and using a cheap, thin, laptop (maybe a Chromebook) to develop on the go.

That way, I can have even higher performance as well as better battery life.

However, the one limitation is needing to run heavy IDEs like Android Studio. Does remote desktop software have low enough latency to make this practical? Are there any unique solutions to this problem? I know Jetbrains has Jetbrains Gateway - does anyone have experience using this? It doesn't support Android Studio yet, and isn't free, but at least the technology looks possible.
Velcro Velcro Velcro. C'mon this weirdness about brands as adjectives is just dumb.
The whole point of traffic calming is that if you drive like a maniac you damage your car. And slowing cars down is inherently safe, simply by virtue of how speed affects fatality rates. A given car, when parked, can't kill anyone, and going 100mph it will kill just about anyone it hits, and it's continuous and monotonous in between.
I despise this kind of backlash.

Everyone always says "Free speech, but not speech without consequence". But this kind of reactionary consequences are precisely why it's an issue.

You don't actually have free speech, if the consequences of free speech are so great, that it becomes career suicide.

Not allowed to speak against crowd, and all that entails.
Oops! You're quite right of course. I remembered Japan because that's where we had the written records of the event.
I'd be more inclined to sign up if there were AI-free [but still unlimited] plans.

I'm willing to pay to a degree... but honestly, I'm not that compelled by AI/LLMs and get heartburn from utility billing.
That's the "prompt processing" speed, just reading the prompt. It can only generate text at 28 t/s according to that chart.
Piling onto the Kagi experience reports:

I used it when it was free and while it was fine, I didn't feel enough of a difference to DuckDuckGo/Google for it to be worth it to switch permanently.
>"Harvard Economics professor Jason Furman ’92 shared a similar statement on X, writing that he had been contacted by a student who had been doxxed despite no longer attending Harvard or affiliating with the co-signing group."

Undeniable tragedy what happened, innocent lives lost and countless more will die in this war, but accusing and doxxing innocent people whose lives will be overturned seems like the wrong approach here.
I wish Neeva knew that too but ah well. I feel like a lot of people on here share the mindset that unless Google can be demolished, there’s no point in being a competitor…which is, a dumb take IMHO.
I don't think something that specific exists. There are a very large number of formal methods tools, each with different specialties / domains.

For verification with proof assistants, [Software Foundations](https://softwarefoundations.cis.upenn.edu/) and [Concrete Semantics](http://concrete-semantics.org/) are both solid.

For verification via model checking, you can check out [Learn TLA+](https://learntla.com/), and the more theoretical [Specifying Systems](https://lamport.azurewebsites.net/tla/book-02-08-08.pdf).

For more theory, check out [Formal Reasoning About Programs](http://adam.chlipala.net/frap/).

And for general projects look at [F*](https://www.fstar-lang.org/) and [Dafny](https://dafny.org/).

There are a bunch of people using Chromebooks for dev, apparently. Some info on Reddit, and there was a thread on here where this came up a little while ago.

Nobody mentioned doing anything like Android development though; it was more "you can install VSCode and basic tooling natively on the Chromebook via its shell" or something
Cheaper than my latte habit. Nothing wrong with paying software devs if you can afford to.
Utica, NY. A historically significant city.
Irrespective of the ethics of this (if you redirect migration you can kill the population) there's a practical problem which is that high intensity infrasound is quite difficult and expensive to create.

Normally this research works by observing second order effects of known sources of infrasound. For example if we track migration of whales/dolphins in the ocean by tagging them and observe the introduction of some noise pollution (like a new oil well in the Gulf) change those patterns, we can infer that the sound was the source of the change.

A really amazing example of this that someone linked was the pigeon race between Paris and London that was diverted, and the timing of it was directly linked to the Concord going supersonic over the Atlantic on a flight from London to New York (the interesting bit is that the flight was delayed and the timing of the flight lined up perfectly with when the birds were over the English Channel).

The whole field of acoustic/audio conservation is a young one and there's some very interesting research all the time. Off the top of my head, I know NOAA was researching this in the Gulf and South Florida about a decade ago with the University of Miami but I don't know if there were notable publications.
This is really neat to read about. Does this discovery fundamentally change our understanding of other homonid cultures?
Your experience depends quite a bit on where you live and/or work, or, more specifically, what's underneath it. If one has nothing to do with the Millennium Tower, that is probably a plus.
How has this gotten so little activity on this forum? Has LLM stolen the oxygen from really cool stuff? This is the kind of hacker stuff that makes me smile. Seems like a really clever idea that can actually be useful.
Yes, it works. Look into wireguard to access your workstation remotely.

I wouldn’t trust Google to run my hardware however.
John Riccitiello's heart?
no, see, that's my point: you wouldn't call genetically modified grass 'artificial grass'. As you did, you have to qualify it as 'artificially created'. Because apart from being 'artificially created' it's real grass. Likewise your clone is a real human.

So 'artificially created' things are not automatically 'artificial'. They're only 'artificial' if the artifice is still apparent in the end result. If they aren't real.

So my point: if we're describing something as 'artificial' intelligence, we should expect it to be a fake substitute for real intelligence, that has been manufactured to serve that purpose.

If you said you had 'artificially created intelligence', that is a different - and much bigger - claim than that you have 'created artificial intelligence'. Much like if you said you had 'artificially created life' that is a much bigger claim than that you have 'created artificial life'.
Interesting, I'm trying to understand (much less knowledgeable about finance than ML, heh.) But it sounds like you fed it the raw order books (no time dimension), a sequence of order states corresponding to each (a time series), mapped them into the embedding dimension of a decoder-only transformer (the masking), and trained it to predict logits for the next order state?

See, that makes way more sense to me, since it sounds like you used causal self-attention , and actual position embeddings.

I've been interested in some time series stuff, like position embeddings to model actual wall-clock time offsets rather than sequence index, but for textless NLP rather than trading.
Calculator too!
I may be in a minority of one, but I consider it disingenuous for companies to use GPL/AGPL to drive people towards commercial licenses. BUSL is at least honest about what's going on.

Thank you! I don't know how I missed the Garmin. (My google-fu is weaker than I had feared.)

TIL: Garmin also uses HRV to infer respiration, aka respiratory sinus arrhythmia. But it's good enough for all day. And skimming their forums suggests their users are content that it works as advertised.

I want to seriously question what you mean by "History".

The history I understand places blame on the British Empire and the neo Israeli State.

My understanding of this situation is that terrorism is initiated by Islamic jihadists. The environment that allows those jihadists to thrive is created by Israel.

The Gaza strip, is the poster child of how to create an adversarial environment that breeds terrorism.

Ah, that’s too bad. I think (please correct if I’m wrong) those have some trouble in canyons at higher latitudes. The nice thing about Iridium is if you wait a few minutes, a bird will usually show up overhead. It’s nice for SAR missions we help with in the mountains.
You might be okay with this, others are not:

Harvard Hillel, the University’s Jewish center, released a statement Wednesday afternoon saying that it “strongly condemns any attempts to threaten and intimidate” members of co-signatory organizations.

“We will continue to reject the PSC’s statement in the strongest terms — and demand accountability for those who signed it,” the statement reads. “But under no circumstances should that accountability extend to public intimidation of individuals.”

Unless I am mistaken it's "credentialless" forwarding. I couldn't see any directive which would make the relay check user, its the IP routing mechanism to make something "inside" visible "outside" with loadshare, failover, test-before-connect, but not "gate keep"

an ssh -D SOCKS5 tunnel requires you to present credentials on the jump host. This daemon bypasses that need. (happy to be corrected. I'd love to be wrong)

On its own, no, but there are various grids (Estonia, France, and South Australia come to mind) where they’re firing about 50-80MW consistently of fossil gas generation for grid stability/inertia/etc. If non fossil generation can contribute towards destroying demand for fossil providers of these services (along with utility scale battery storage and synchronous condensers) at an economical cost, it sounds like an easy win.
