Hot take: The Tailscale team is the highest concentration of leading network engineers from any company in the world today, at least when it comes to consumer products. If we ever get a true 'next gen' internet that removes the protocol cruft we've layered on over the years, I could see it coming out of them moreso anyone else.
Just went to the first video and got the following from 1:36, here's a link which starts at that point: https://youtu.be/3sWH2e5xpdo?si=bmum-8B02FLoVkWj&t=96

"I mean I have like lots of selfish reasons for doing this and as you've said I get like all the power of running OpenAI, but I can't think of anything more fulfilling to work on and I don't think it's particularly altruistic, it would be if I didn't already have a bunch of money, yeah, the money is gonna pile up faster than I can spend it"

Some other fascinating and relevant stuff in that video too.
And to explain why this hadn't been done before/how we got here:

Nothing in a car actually wants 12V DC. Most of the low voltage stuff will run better at 5V or below, while a lot of the higher voltage stuff would benefit from going as high as possible. 12V exists because DC-DC conversion used to be expensive, and you had to make a compromise about the voltage based on losses, wire thickness, and picking a low enough voltage that all the low-voltage stuff doesn't suffer too much.

What's changed is that you can get a single-device DC-DC converter for really cheap these days. Cheap enough that you might as well put it in the light bulbs, and everywhere else that wants a low voltage.
I think the comparison to humans is just totally useless. It isn’t even just that, as a tool, it should be better than humans at the thing it does, necessarily. My monitor is on an arm, the arm is pretty bad at positioning things compared to all the different positions my human arms could provide. But it is good enough, and it does it tirelessly. A tool is fit for a purpose or not, the relative performance compared to humans is basically irrelevant.

I think the folks making these tools tend to oversell their capabilities because they want us to imagine the applications we can come up with for them. They aren’t selling the tool, they are selling the ability to make tools based on their platform, which means they need to be speculative about the types of things their platform might enable.
Wow, that made me notice I'm 30 years this month too!

I barely touched the Web for the first few months I was online. IRC, FTP and Usenet only. Even email didn't hold much value at the time.

Most of the Web in 1993 was just tutorials on how to write your first web page.

My earliest surviving HTML pages are from about 1997. If I could get hold of the guy, Dustin, who has been maintaining this web site continuously since before 1996, then I could probably find the earliest fragments of my web coding from when I was using that MUD to DM my gf so I could help with the web design/Java applet course she was enrolled in:

http://resworld.eolith.net/res.html

(that's also my first registered domain there, eschaton.net .. I was bummed because NSF had just finally started charging for domains so I had to drop dozens of awesome one-word dotcoms)
I wondered if ChatGPT could decode this email, and you're safe: https://chat.openai.com/share/517e396a-84ce-4841-bdfb-087eab...
The 6809 was a relative bit player; nifty chip but too late in the 8-bit market cycle to get nearly the traction or ship remotely the numbers its competitors did. By the time it hit the market, if needed the uptick in performance/features, you usually went to one of the 16-bit chips.

If you're including 'derivatives', then the 68hc11 and related (6800 with extra stuff) were/are wildly popular in the embedded space and are still today being produced by NXP. You can buy them from stock at Digikey.

The 6809 never superseded the 6800 at anything in the market other than being cool. And then the 68000 ate whatever market it might have had left.

Agreed on the 8051. There's probably a dozen within 20' of you right now.
I made my first webpage back in 1996 for a project in my high school CS class. I don't think I have it either, but from what I recall of it, it was pretty corny.
To be clear: they are playing by the book. This is a power play to get them to set up a locally-owned subsidiary that runs things. It happens in various places. In China it's even more strongly enforced.

Show HN: Podsift: Summaries of Startup/Investing/Technology Podcasts
If you're like me, you are obsessed with consuming startup, tech, business, and venture capital podcasts. However, there are too many good ones to make sense of it all.

Podsift ( https://podsift.com ) is a service that uses AI to transcribe and summarize podcast episodes and sends the summaries to your email inbox. Every time a new pod is released, you receive an audio summary as well as a written summary. You can forward it to a friend and it links right to the pod.

I've found these summaries useful for:

- getting a detailed overview of the episode before deciding if I want to listen to it.

- to stay on top of podcasts I don't have time to listen to.

- as notes of episodes I have listened to that I can reference later on.

Also, we're looking for the crème de la crème of finance, investing, venture capital, and startup podcasts to add to the service. If you know of any that are not currently listed, please post them below!

Hope you find it useful! Thanks!

> Lack of Wireguard docs/tutorials is unfortunate

The thing about Wireguard is that it's very simple and minimal. It does just one thing, and that is - establishes a layer 3 tunnel for sending IP packets between local machine and some other peers. It doesn't do mesh, it doesn't do routing (it just knows the IPs of its direct peers and that's all it does), it doesn't do bridging - all this stuff is done by other pieces such as Linux kernel, but not Wireguard itself.

> Wireguard walk-through to bridge two separate LANs

Same or different subnets for those LANs? If they're different and non-intersecting, and if you don't need cross-LAN broadcast or multicast, the simplest option is to establish a Wireguard connection between those LAN's default gateway routers (assuming you can do this), and on each of those routers set up a route that sends opposite LAN's traffic to the opposite gateway (in case of iproute2: `ip route add my.other.lan.subnet/mask via my.other.lan.gw`, how to make this persistent depends on your distro). Then, on each gateway, allow packet forwarding between Wireguard and LAN interfaces (with e.g. iptables or nftables or whatever you use there).

If you can't run Wireguard on gateways, the overall principle holds, but you'll need to distribute routes to your respective LANs via Wireguard-running routers through DHCP or whatever you use for routing on your LANs (e.g. OSPF).

And if your LANs both have the same subnet, or if you need multicast, things get significantly trickier (plus, there's inevitable question of what should happen if two machines on different LANs have the same IP). You'll probably need to run something like L2TP or GRETAP (or something else that can encapsulate you layer 2) over Wireguard.

Or maybe just use OpenVPN in TAP mode (if you want all stuff independent of any third parties) or Tailscale (because it already works).
No, not all companies try to exploit their strength in one area to make me use some other product that I have no interest in.

I'm not talking about "hey, we have this product that you might like", I'm talking about "if you want to use this product, you must also use this product". There's also no technical reason for it, sometimes they will let me use it.

Not O.K.
> 1/4 the current, 1/16 the resistive heating

Really underappreciated safety aspect. The currents required for your average doodad at 48V leave you with a MUCH lower chance of unscheduled welding.

Remember folks, everything is a fuse if you put enough current through it, as a rule of thumb it's good to keep "enough" pretty low.

> using ethernet and PoE means you don’t have to run one off wires to each device, they can share a bus which results in half the copper being used in a lower voltage car

Ethernet isn't a bus, its point to point. PoE over cat5/6 uses 4 pairs of UTP.

so it might be used to join aggregate things together, but it won't be a bus.

Yes, you can increase the datarate, but ethernet is fundamentally unreliable. So you'll need to either strictly manage the bandwidth requirements of attached devices, or put in flow control(expensive) or use the weird "reliable" Ethernet they made for fibre channel replacment ($lol and you need to pay to make it automotive rated)

48v is logical, and a lot of other people are doing it.

PoE is probably stupid

Ethernet makes kinda sense, but firewire would probably be better, its a bus and rated for life critical use.

why should all computing be deterministic?

let me show you this "genius"/"wrong-thinking" person as to say about AL(artificial life) and deterministic computing.

https://www.cs.unm.edu/~ackley/

https://www.youtube.com/user/DaveAckley

To sum up a bunch of their content: You can make intractable problems solvable/crunchable if you allow just a little error into the result (which is reduced the longer the calculation calculates). And this is acceptable for a number of use cases where initial accuracy is less important that instant feedback.

It is radically different from a Von Neumann model of a computer - where there is a deterministic 'totalitarian finger pointer' pointing to some registry (and only one registry at a time) is an inherently limited factor. In this model - each computational resource (a unit of ram, and a processing unit) fights for and coordinates reality with it's neighbors without any central coordination.

Really interesting stuff. still in its infancy...
Yes, however still to me people sometimes will talk too much, when it would be much better where they are concise at first and I can ask immediate interactive follow ups about the details. Interview is such a limited time so to me it seems most efficient to have a dialogue out of the box.

Or they should at least make pauses to give opportunity for cuts.

I don't want to listen to prose someone studied word by word.

I don't need to "feel" the challenge as the author said. I need to be able to figure out during 1 hour the problem solving capability of the candidate. If they spend unnecessarily much time on stories, I would be concerned whether they are a bser and want to limit my ability to ask questions as the time runs out.
Why would static charge affect the final flavor?

In the event that static caused some ground beans to stick to the wall of the grinder (or brewing vessel), continued use of the grinder or brewer would quickly reach a steady state where the throughput is ultimately the same, because the "binding sites" of the grinder or vessel are essentially saturated.

Can an expert help me understand this better?
On the contrary I think that's the main point: that a fairly trivial amount of practice is enough to surpass almost everyone who you'll encounter in the activity. Obviously (tautologically) the average person who practices regularly will be average among the people who practice regularly -- you'd have to practice exceptionally well (or perhaps start out with exceptional talent) for practice to make you exceptional in that group. So I don't think it's a cheat, it's just about putting it into perspective.

https://tailscale.com/compare/wireguard/

Here is what I will say. I manually setup wireguard for my home network, it was annoying but doable. Then when tailscale started to get interesting I just decided try it out using a free account and rolled back my wireguard configuration... and never went back. It's so much less fiddly.

True - although in certain ways, this can be an advantage. When I've built SVG components, I use viewbox with height and width constants to define the SVG's "internal" dimensions, and then if you want to do something like finding the midpoint, you just do the right math on your constants. Then, the component can easily be scaled via CSS.

The problem, of course, is that there's not really a good way to do dynamic sizing if you want to be able to change the aspect ratio, which is where layout engines like Grid and Flex become so useful in HTML / CSS. But in my (fairly limited) experience, if I'm reaching for SVG it's because I need the tight control that comes with it, so it hasn't been an issue for my own projects.
Do light novels count? If so, I particularly enjoyed 戦国小町苦労端 (Sengoku Komachi Kurou Tan, Story of the Hardships of a Beauty in the Warring States Period), the story of a girl who likes history and agriculture being sent back in time and meeting Oda Nobunaga, who assigns her the task of making a failing village produce enough crops. I find its portrayal of Nobunaga interesting, making him about as likeable as you could expect a 16th century warlord to be.

Is this totally necessary? My question is genuine. I don't know much about font programming.

> I’ll add the option extend the list, and see if I can find a better list of defaults.

If the values have to be hard-coded. If you can get me a contact info, I could send you the master list of chords.. maybe you could use that. My username is not really figurative.

I could see multiple "versions" of the font. There are different conventions one could use to spell chords. Even something like Hal Leonard vs. Sher use different conventions. There's symbol shorthands, like writing aug vs. + or even ma7 vs. '△7'. Dim vs. a circle. There are quite a few different ways to do it so I think it could be cool if you could pick a version. But I could be overcomplicating this.

> I think a more “advanced” use case like the one you described can be addressed by something like https://lilypond.org

Lilypond is a music engraving system. That means that it is producing sheet music. That isn't really overlapping with what you're making as that is not sheet music, but more of a shorthand. I'm actually more interested in the kind of approach you're doing, as I hate sheet music. For me, what music notation needs is simply the chord, and the time. That's why I mentioned the use of '|' to indicate bar lines. Actually writing down and reading individual notes is something that basically takes years to learn, and I don't consider it in line with my (subjective) definition of modern music. Usually by the time people learn to read sheet music, they've completely missed real "playing", with all the effort going into sheet music instead. If you're someone who improvises, you just need the harmonic structure (chords over time).

So another question which might be simple-to-answer would be, can we make a font that just has some kind of thing (glyph, symbol, unicode code point) which raises the thing above the thing? Or do we absolutely need to hardcode it.
