Apologies for not seeing this until now. I have just passed on your details.

That's interesting and reminds me of Bill Bryson, e.g. The Lost Continent did a lovely job of intertwining the history, trivia and his childhood memories into his personal travel.
Yes.

It depends what you're doing. Most of the basic commands, they're snapshots. When you get into things like rebase especially, you have to think in terms of diffs.

I'm not sure what "histories" are, as a distinct thing from snapshots, kind of seems like the same thing.

Thank you. In ten+ years, I think this is the simplest and clearest explanation I've read.
The linked article[1] says that Punjab police (state police in India) shot down the drones. I am curious how the police even detected these drones. State police / local police in India is unlikely to have resources for electronic warfare or RF (radio frequency) detection.

Fun fact : one method of drug transfer (mentioned in popular media) from Pakistan (bordering Punjab) to Punjab is discus throw [2]. Here, a local athlete takes a disk of drugs and throws it over the border which is then intercepted by dealers in Punjab. A great movie about the drug trade in Punjab is "Udta Punjab" (literally translated as flying-Punjab or high-Punjab).

I can only imagine how many drones they missed. Drones usually fly at an altitude that our eye can't see. The drone operators must be smart enough to fly during cloudy days and during night time making binoculars useless as well. My best guess would be ground intelligence by police.

I am a bit surprised that drug trade in a state in India is using drones. The cost of drones (even commercial ones cost ~$500) is a pretty steep one when converted to Indian currency (~40,000 INR). The article[1] states that the police shot down >100 drones = INR 40,00,000. There must be a lot of money in local drugs in Punjab for the operators to be willing to sacrifice 100+ drones.

That’s interesting! I think of them as diffs, though I know they’re snapshots. More familiar with Mercurial though, which may influence my thinking.

Thanks, hadn't come across this one before, and I feel there is some truth to this - that when the inner processes slow down or atrophy, collapse begins.

However, I think the rapid collapse probably refers to what is observable on the outside

What percentage of problems would benefit from parallel reconfiguration? I'm raising money for an FPGA in my profile where programs aren't bottlenecked in FPGA reconfiguration but instead are reconfigured in parallel.
Sorry for the silly question but how did you reply so fast. HackerNews doesn't tell an account when someone replied to them. So how did you know I asked? Do you monitor all your comments or use some service which does that?
Since you asked, but I dunno if this is applicable...

I had a lot of anxiety growing up - from "If I fail this test then everything is downhill" in school to "If I miss this payment then everything is downhill" in the scare quotes "real world". I remember listing out on paper every time I could remember that I thought there would be dire consequences if I failed and there wasn't actually dire consequences. Maybe it was a kind of retrospective cognitive behavioural therapy? I noticed a pattern (though I didn't have the understanding to call it a pattern back then).

But that was the moment that something switched and I had the confidence that even if shit hit the fan I would make it through. Probably it was the culmination of other realizations and not just this act by itself, but that was def the crystallization. And not that I'm always this way, but it's rare for me to fall back into the anxiety circus. It still takes some practice to maintain it in particularly tough situations.

Maybe you associate that state of mind with a place because you felt it most strongly there? But I think a state of mind is part of you and you can cultivate that anywhere.
Funny you mention "Thinking, Fast and Slow." If you read this book, you need to do your research on the "replication crisis." I dropped a link to an LW discussion on the topic below. Otherwise, I agree with you. Even every day news articles can throw you off.

In this vein, I would unequivocally recommend How to Talk about Books You Haven't Read. Also, I’d recommend a book which seems self-nullifying, How to Read a Book.

> Bayard's most popular book, How to Talk about Books You Haven't Read (Minuit, 2007), is a bestseller in France in which he engages in a study of the different ways of not reading a book, and recommends solutions to be able to talk about it anyway. Assuming that some readers have a terrifying understanding of reading, he tries to make them feel free from guilt for not having read canonical literature. The essential thing in culture being to have an overview, he claims the possibility of having a perforated and incomplete culture. Pierre Bayard has renewed this system in Comment parler des lieux où l'on n'a pas été, a work in the second degree again, in which he reviews the authors who have spoken of places they have not visited.

> Moreover, humour is a fundamental element of his writing. In How to Talk about Books You Haven't Read, the narrator teaches the way not to read, which is a joke because he himself is a great reader. For Pierre Bayard, humour has an analytical function. It allows you to mark a gap between yourself and yourself, and therefore to distance yourself from what you read.

I agree with you, just want to explain what a history is.

A "history" is what other version control systems call a "branch." It's the commit and all of its ancestors.

Some people think of things this way because the commit ID does depend on its ancestors by depending on its parent (which depends on its parent, which depends on its parent...).

This is why, if you rebase a commit, and the content ends up exactly the same (maybe someone already made the equivalent change in both branches), the commit ID still changes: the parent has changed, so the hash changes, so the ID changes.

I hope that makes sense.
Good for him, I'm sure he has enough cash to coast.

Was recently listening to Mr.Beast talk about his success and how he is happiest when he is locked in his warehouse. He can't go anywhere without being swarmed. You can tell the guy is at the point where it's becoming overwhelming with 227 million subs and more views on his videos than the Super Bowls gets. He had to turn to marketing his own products to make enough to keep going since sponsors couldn't pay enough to cover his costs and he was sometimes losing 1 million $$ on some of his videos.
That's such a silly standard of success to think that one must be entered into the Western cannon to be considered successful. The number of authors that have made good money writing books far, far exceeds, by many orders of magnitude, the number of authors in the Western cannon.

In the 20th century, there have been hundred of thousands to a million different titles published. If even 10% of those authors made enough money to be considered a living wage, it absolutely dwarfs the number of authors in the cannon, which is on the scale of 100s, not thousands.

If the cannon is your standard, your standard excludes almost the entire industry.
What does Rust offer here? More people know C++, security stuff from rust comes in the way of rapid exploratory development and arguably, C++ templates (don't think they are used here, moot point I know) are much more superior to rust.

How?
Is this an official google page, or run by some random third party? I ask because I had to create a new account and did not just make use of my normal google account.

Anyhow.. It's shockingly bad. There is obviously broken stuff everywhere.

I can't post any messages because when choosing a username I used my company name ironhelmetgames, and when I submit any message I get an error that the message body contains the word "game" which is not allowed.

1. The word game is not in the message body. It's in my username.

2. Whats wrong with games, game developers use app engine as well and would like to participate it the community.
Yeah but it just means that software needs to tweak some parameters on M3 to slow spilling to E cores. In fact, a good system would always spill to E cores ands just let completion rates drive acceptance of work stealing.
Pretty much anywhere there's a drug trade there's an associated trade in stolen goods.

A box or two of drones falling off a truck in exchange for a bag or two of drugs changes the economics.
Phrasing that as "some people were killed for libel" is much less impressive.

And there are at least a few people included in this book who literally were attempting to organize a rebellion against the throne to install a pretender.

For which, props for the completeness and honesty, at least. Such examples often get overlooked or whitewashed when this kind of discussion happens.

agree with that sentiment. unfortunately, you have to bite the bullet and start something of your own, if you want to learn the beast.

thankfully though, most of the stuff that you want to do are just a google search away these days, and presence of declarative package-managers f.e. use-package, straight etc. does lighten the burden somewhat.

you might want to look at: https://emacs.amodernist.com/ which provides a rudimentary configuration generator.
Sounds interesting, would love to see some screenshots in the readme.

A docker install option would make it more approachable for me as well.

I mean, there's no reason a Starship can't be turned into a space telescope, and it's pretty much an assembly line rocket.

Also no reason why it can't be an ISS, and no reason you couldn't link multiple together.

Pretty useful to have a reusable grain silo you can launch and land.
"All the engineering ethics in the world does nothing against the greed of Boeing's management. "

Sure managers are guilty.

But managers did not write the code. "Engineers" did.

As long as there are engineers writing that code (also see VW and #Dieselgate) there will be managers who do this. Engineers need to take a stand and don't do everything. Like professionals. "He made me do it" is not an excuse for hundreds of dead people.
In grad school, many years ago, I would plug the drain and let the tub fill while I showered. I would pull the plug and let the tub drain once the water had cooled. This way my bathroom would warm up a bit. I suppose this might have saved a few cents.
Neither this project, nor its predecessor are p2p. In essence both are centralized WebRTC signaling servers/services.

Sadly both WebRTC and WebSockets seem to have been designed in such a way that excludes pure peer-to-peer operation.

In what way is Alaska a "budget carrier"?

Maintenance protocols are a mix of manufacturer recommendations and carrier/maintenance contractor SOPs, which are then approved by the manufacturer and FAA.
I have the feeling I’d need more money than I have for that…
I'm not saying because they need to understand exactly what code gets generated, compiler optimizations can produce interesting results. What I am saying is the idea that an if statement from an assembly is a compare and a jump... knowing what happens under the hood is kind of important for people writing C in 2024.

Like I guess the point I have to make is that if you are writing C in 2024, there is likely a good reason, and if you don't know what's going on in the assembler, I feel like people are playing with fire.
The added irony is that the oldest threads are the most interesting.
When did he say that? That might be when they’re planning a demonstration, but it ain’t gonna be regular airline service then, purely for regulatory reasons if not the fact you’d need like 100,000 Starship launches to prove it’ll be safe enough.
What would you do with that money?
It would be better if I could tap the images on my phone and see results. Or pasting a URL. Saving them on the phone and uploading them is a burden.
Airliners with extended range tanks are much less efficient than normal airliners, since they both decrease capacity and increase consumption. That's the range where Starship becomes competitive, basically trans-Pacific or further.

That's a pretty wild claim to include without a source...

I googled it and found a source that said 12% of signups in January compared to average 8% the rest of the year which sounds a lot more realistic. [1]

Lol! It’s not my intention for this to be a get rich quick scheme but there are running costs (user registration and TheGraph network payments). If the platform is to be self sustaining it needs to cover its costs.

Is there a reasonable long term platform fee that you would find acceptable? Say 1% or 0.1%?

Don't feel bad. The issue here is the relationship with the company & Carta and overall corporate concerns, not much about employee equity.

Briefly:

- In a startup you're granted options. Contract that allows you to buy certain amount of company shares at a specific price (”strike price”, also known as “exercise price”), which is usually the fair market price at the time when your options are granted. Options do not give you ownership of stock, instead they provide you rights to purchase stock at a favorable price.

- Fair market price is the price of the stock based on the company’s current valuation (set by an outside evaluator). Early stage companies the fair market valuation 20-30% of the valuation investors pay.

- Exercising your options means purchasing all or some of your shares and becoming a shareholder in the company. For example, if your strike price is $1.50 and you exercise your option for 1,000 shares, your exercise will cost $1,500 (1,000 x $1.50) plus any potential taxes, and you will be a holder of 1,000 shares. Now if in the future the company IPOs with a stock price of $100 you can sell those shares and get $100k or gain $98.5 per share.

- Exercise window is the time you can buy your options. Commonly in US startups required you to purchase the shares within 90 days of you leaving the company or you lose it. More employee friendly startups have extended exercise windows that let you keep the options for 7 or 10 years.

- Early exercise. Employee friendly startups allow early exercise for your options to avoid paying taxes along the way. Say you join the company when the strike price is $1.50. You exercise the shares at $1.50 now you own the shares and since there was no gain, you don't have to pay taxes at that time. If you don't early exercise then, but wait until the next funding round when the strike price is now $4.50, your now have to pay tax on the gain of $3. In both cases in the end if you one day sell the stock for $100 you still pay the same amount of taxes (gain from $1.50 to $100 or from $1.5 to $4.5 + $4.5 to $100). It just lets you to avoid taxes until you have actual liquidity and also lets you to pay long term gains, sometimes get it even tax free if your company and holding is QSBS eligible.

If one was to be loose with the application of statistics, one could say that January has 50% more signups than the average for other months.

This could reasonably be Chinese-whispered to become that 75% statistic.
While every year comes with a January 75% sounds like a fish story.

Great read. I was wondering why it felt so familiar to me and it dawned on me it’s like a cross between my past jobs of internal it support and ems. I miss going into houses and businesses around my area on a daily basis, and driving around all parts of the city. I remember back when I first transitioned into an office job how isolated it made me feel from community. If the pay was remotely equivalent I’d consider dropping my remote sysadmin gig for a job like the author’s.
