Yes, I'm going to add it. However my plan right now is to add first these two options:

- Client side rendering: Request all the data and the pagination is going to be client side.

- Download the table as CSV.

After doing this, I'm going to work in sorting and filtering.

If you're rich and money is no object, do what makes you happy.

But if money is tight enough that you care about cost, it is very silly to look into an expensive new car. Buy an older efficient Honda/Mazda/Toyota for less than $10K, insurance will be cheaper, operating costs very low.
Great UI design; clean, intuitive, and useful. Thank you for this!

On a side note, I'd really like to know what broken mechanism aggressively downranks such quality community submissions. 67 upvotes in 2 hours, and only ranked 9th. Meanwhile, another post with fewer upvotes in more time is ranked 2nd. Something is very wrong here. I'd love to see more posts like this one, and fewer standard blog articles that are hitting the front page for the third time in five years.
Exactly this.

There are many of us who are running solo operations and the only alternative to quick a/b testing in the broader scheme of your entire application follow is to either write your own wrappers or use some humongous horrendous abstraction layer like langchain, which is going to cost you 2x time in the future.

I’ve added support for multiple apis in my app but it’s definitely a non trivial task to test new ones, especially with so many on the market.
Does this shed any more light on whether it's valid for the author to name 2008 as a flash crisis?

The taleb comparison survives on the idea that talebs thesis (long tail events are underestimated) is the same as negative long tail events happen quickly. So I don't think that sheds much light.

On the financial side, those look like two arbitrarily long term periods where you couldn't 100x in O(weeks) by a long tail bet on the negative side - but alas, arbitrary. ex. stonks traded sideways in 2021 but I made an absolute fantastic amount of money in about 3 weeks in Feb/March 2020, as an accident, buying puts to poke fun at this new silly mistaken trend of thinking options were for retail investors (ah, I was so young and innocent)

> I'm pretty sure no company in their right mind today start a new product in C++

I say this as someone who loves rust and zig, but these types of statements make me feel like HN is way out of touch with the industry. New products are constantly made in C++. That doesn't make it good (and i don't think companies building in C++ are making the best choices), but to say that no big tech company is writing any new code in C++ is just not correct. I see this happen every day at my job.

I also would definitely say more C++ code is written every day over C, although I'll say, I am not as familiar with the embedded world, but I know one HFT/Gaming/Robotics firm will have millions of new C++ lines every day.

Absolutely, these kind of preliminary results need replication to be believed, but I'm reminded of the early days when MDMA was touted as a treatment for PTSD. Happily that's since held up to scrutiny.

When I was getting ready to graduate college with a degree in mechanical engineering (circa 2009), I must have applied to Boeing 50+ times. I was a huge fan of the company. Every application was flatly rejected, no explanation given.

I'd be curious to see single/multi benchmarks of Rosetta 2-emulated code running across the various Apple Silicon CPU.

My impression from the M1 was that only P cores could go into the stricter memory mode used for Rosetta 2 emulation.
Based on my experience with Tesla’s autonomous driving software, there is no planet on which that’s true. It is quite literally worse than anyone I can imagine driving unless they’re high, drunk, texting, and doing 30+mph over the speed limit. I’ve come across an unfortunate number of drunk drivers in my time on this earth driving and I can say I’ve never once seen or heard of a drunk slamming on their brakes at 70mph because of a tree shadow across the road. I’ve personally experienced and seen someone else’s Tesla do it on multiple occasions.

I can anticipate and avoid a drunk driver in many situations. I’d never expect that behavior out of any human driver.
Read my comment that I made fleshing this out. You are very wrong. Well, you're right that laser is stronger than "regular" light, but your reasoning is totally wrong. And polarization has absolutely nothing to do with it. You'd be better off saying it's a side effect that Starlink takes advantage of, because it's easier to recognize a polarized signal than one that isn't (and that actually IS the reason, but you're not ready for that level yet).

Light polarized one way is exactly the same strength as light that isn't polarized, and covers less area, so its apparent strength is considerably less. Your reasoning about why laser is so bright is muddling things up, because you don't understand what makes signals stronger or weaker when dealing with photons and other things at more quantum scales.

We don't want to get into quantum discussions here, because you'll just get whackier in your claims, so just go read that comment and move on, because I've explained it about as clear as it can be to someone who is not trolling or begging for attention.
1. I occasionally have to browse databases through SSH.
2. The CLI / TUI apps take less memory.
3. They also don't lag and lag is something I am absolutely sick of.
4. Easy to build habits in terms of blind keyboard pressing (very much like cashiers on the older DOS keyboard-only software in retail shops; you just know where everything is and are times more productive).
This was eerily similar to my experience about 5 years prior. My experience was in Australia on the software side. Down to the same equipment, same style people, same style interaction with apple.

Bizarre. Carta has an opt-in liquidity program that I'd expect to be the source of this type of offer, but doesn't fit the case here.

I'm guessing someone fucked up and should not have considered this particular investor for a tender. I'm willing to give Carta the benefit of the doubt here, that this is a one-off fuck up (this type of offer being a human-managed process wouldn't surprise me as it's typically high-touch).

Because if it isn't, and it is systemic, then Carta has fired their cannons into their own hull.

I like your idea of switching the endpoint specifically for caching, would be a great improvement for the service. This does run on Next.js which offers some sort of caching out of the box. When it becomes a problem, it will definitely be necessary. Thanks for the suggestion!

Normally i say chase engaging work, but lately i try to temper that with "non programming life is even better a lot of times".That said, do you still have time/energy in your nights to work on oet projects DESPITE the boring daily work? I find boring work drains me more than tougher problems do. If you can still work in your off hours then consider that your next position may pay less and consume more mental energy, enough that your pet projects cease or slow.
Its a tough choice, for sure and leaning on inaction always feels bad doesnt it?
It's wrong for Carta to market your investment details to solicit a deal without your consent.

That's true, but not my point. My point is that if the request specifies GPT-3.5, Nitro knows that it cannot possibly serve that model, so anything other than returning an error is simply lying to the client, which is a really bad idea.
Upvoted this because this comment is from the CEO & co-founder of CloudFare - a public company. He clearly knows about liquidity going from private to public.

Agree on the need for founders to guard their cap table, especially against strategic moves by competitors.

Regarding better liquidity for employees, it's great that companies are exploring options. Carta is in a unique position to lead this. But it's key that both the company and investors opt-in (not buried in a ToS).

> The average monthly payment for a used car is $500/mo, and $700/mo for a new car

Average isn't a very interesting number here. I know a guy with a $15K/month car payment, I'm sure people like him push the average up.

If you're trying to save money, don't go for average. Buy a cheap used car, ideally in cash, and your operating costs will be minimal.

The sky is the limit how much you can spend on a car if you wanted to splurge(waste), but you can also a fully functional car for very cheap if you care to save money.
Agreed, I think a fuller version could require authentication and then you'd be able to have whatever name you want maybe?

> every project you have should be in a virtual environment. it is not hard.

If it's not hard then why is it not being done by default?

I am not a Python dev and I don't want to be, but when I have to install something via `pip` there's always pain.

"You could learn it", yeah yeah, Python is so special everyone has to learn it even if they don't ever work with it. How about learning from something modern like Go and Rust? `go install github.com/user/tool@latest`, boom, done. `cargo install the_tool`, boom, done.
If there are more jobs, workers have more leverage to negotiate higher wages.
I think this kind taste towards developing your own tools forshadow how programming will look like near future. There won't be dozens of abstraction to develop application and there won't be a playstore to hold millions of apps, there would be just a declarative language or Ai that takes human natural language and convert it to it and a black box that takes that declarative recipe and create the precise app according to user need. Instead Programmers there would be just a logicans and blackbox(AI system) that created most optimal way to accomplish the requirements. Creating application will be a end to end experience.
But why specifically GitHub, instead of just git? Every git hosting provider could work with this model
AFAICT, Nitro is just a wrapper around llama.cpp. Therefore, you can simply look at llama.cpp benchmarks, of which there are plenty.
R2 was used because it was the only database-like service CF offered at the time.

IIRC the P2pcf client polls the worker for new peers. Pubsub would let you use an ongoing websockets connection, plus all the channel management logic is built-in. The game-changer is that they've said they'll charge per-message as opposed to per-connection-second, unlike everyone else!

> Russia is paranoid about NATO expansion in the belief it faces an existential threat.

No one cares that much about something as vague and unspecific. Even a mentally impaired child should recognize the background of NATO-Russia relationships, but this is hardly the core motive and reason behind what is happening right now.

> The reality is that Russia is a has-been power, riven with oligarch corruption and a GDP the size of Italy. Russia’s biggest threat is itself and always has been.

The reality is that you are parroting media, hence the whole "Italy GDP" meme, as if the price tag of Italian cheeses and fashion items has anything to do with anything. Why specifically Italy? Why specifically GDP and not GDP per capita or any other one of an endless list of economic metrics? What does this even have to do with anything? The answer is obviously that these are not even your thoughts and you are just parroting, but I don't understand why would anyone insult their own intelligence like that.

One actually has to admire this zealous doublethink about oligarchs:

- It all started with a typical projection: "we have issue with billionaires, means those guys have it even worse, duh"

- Oligarchs were heavily sanctioned, which amounted for a wet fart, because it turned out that they aren't that powerful in Russia due to the same historic reason why elder Russians love (or at least tolerate) Putin: he brought them under the thumb of the state and made them pay taxes.

- Keep insisting the same thing, while keeping in mind that it doesn't work - doublethink!

This is pretty much the level of insight and idiocy surrounding any internet "expertise" on Russia in the western corner of the net.

> scow. But in a fit of projection, Putin blames anyone except himself and his cronies for the state of Russia today. I’m not a Jungian, but this is classic scapegoating. Which is why supporting the Ukrainians is essential.

Politruk, can you talk like a normal person? Why is it always weird slogans and manifestos?
Given the years (91-94), it seems likely these were printed out a long time ago and have sat in filing boxes for nearly 30 years. Looking back it may seem crazy to print so many things out, but screen quality and norms have changed a lot since then!

To this day, many academics still print tons of papers out to read. I'm sure there are other niches where it is still considered normal to print - even though sure, you could argue that an iPad Pro + Pencil is advantageous if for no other reason than physical space.

edit: Could've made my point a bit better. I get where you are coming from. I just mean that at the time, I think more people would find it crazy to stock pile CDs with text files vs printouts
High energy weapons and EW are the only realistic way to deal with it without slinging 100k or 2m dollar missiles around. One problem is these missiles still have debris, though less deadly than an armed drone, they can still be hazardous. Lasers and other high energy weapons are probably the most cost effective and reliable solution for sub 10 pound drones. You generally need only knock out the MEMS gyro, overheat a motor or blind its sensors.

The problem is that drones are cheap and easy to slip around defenses. The other issue is weapon system reliability... the US military expects an extraordinary amount of reliability from munitions / weapon systems and they are supposed to be near 100% reliability. When they launch a missile, it's unacceptable for the missile to not launch.

The Coyote[1] is an interesting counter UAS concept and could be much more cost effective solution.

"One girl waited until her mom left the room to casually turn to me and say 'I will pay you $500 to lie to my mom and say you set this up'."

I was offended that this 15 year old thought she could buy me, in large part because she was correct."

Part of what made this such a fun read is knowing it's 100% all true.

Eh, Elixir has just become my go-to for personal projects. GenServers, pattern matching, releases, being able to pop a shell into my program, the beautiful colors of the IEx shell... I miss all these things when choosing other languages. I also planned on eventually integrating it with a chatbot of mine which is also written in Elixir.
Yeah. Like recently I was finding it difficult to stay on top of the grain markets amid other things going on, so I built a program that regularly polls local elevators to find out how much they are paying for grain and if the software thinks there is a change in price that I might be interested in, it sends a push notification to my phone to let me know. There is a lot more that I'd love to do, but it's hard to find the time.

Perhaps even more useful is the engineering mindset in general. For example, when equipment breaks, troubleshooting an repairing it isn't really a whole lot different than debugging software. Although, having grown up on a farm, I'm not sure if that came before or after my foray into programming.

> HN finds itself as a web influencer

You can ditch the passive voice here. HN is a web influencer by design. It’s a marketing campaign run by a VC firm.
Not an author but the answer seems to involve their espoused focus on ease-of-use and “it-just-works” levels of modularity. See their list of plans, which include a few LLMs and a variety of adjacent tools/features.

It’s a basic value prop and I’m way behind the times on local inference (so barely a few months lol), but it seems different enough that I’m excited to try it. Other tools have tried this path but I’ve seen none with a demo page quite this convincing…

I actually never understood why it has to be immutable (in the context of civil rights). IMO, it's a red herring.
