Does anyone else find it embarassing/cringy when developers “discover” ideas that have existed in the real world for hundreds of years? What the author refers to as a “full-stack” human has been variously called:

- A Rennaissance man

- A jack-of-all-trades

- A well-rounded individual

- Some jargon associated with Myers-Briggs

Did all of those concepts seem so alien that the author felt a need to invent a new, developer-specific identity known as a “full-stack human”?
It's supposed to be a drop-in replacement for docker - IE, you can literally alias docker to podman. I did that for a while, but ran into some command line options that weren't supported.

I see they've added some k8s integration, but not sure how you see it being a k8s alternative? Maybe a minikube alternative...
I learned to ride a motorcycle around 30, in a big city no less.

Your brain is plenty plastic enough but remember that your brain can learn far better by analogy and conscious correlation than a younger, more plastic brain can. You are probably more socially and situationally aware than a younger person which is a huge part of driving safely.

You also have a fully formed prefrontal cortex so unlikely to make stupid choices behind the wheel made by many of us who learned to drive younger.

Also, to get a feel for pushing a vehicle it's traction limits (that you should never attempt on the road) try go-karting. It will help you understand the relationship between speed, turning, traction, and control.

I recently had a page import something like site_stats.js (site meant as in a physical building/location) from the same domain as the html request and ublock blocked it.

Had to rename the bundle.

Please, please, to anyone following this thread:

Implement a human readable protocol, then use standardized streaming compression on the wire to get your message size down. Something LZ family because there are tools everywhere that speak them. And consider turning off transport encoding for local development.

Being able to scan data saves so much time on triage. And using zgrep and friends on production data is almost as easy. You will spend tons of effort trying to make something 10% more efficient than zlib or for certain zstd, and the cost is externalized onto your team.
That's awesome you've already considered of a similar design to Triplit. Re: storage, Triplit can basically bind to any storage capable of providing ordered key values so we have bindings for SQLite but in the browser you're best of doing either in-memory or IndexedDB (both of which are built-in), examples here: https://www.triplit.dev/docs/client-database/storage.

Regarding similar projects there are a few you can find on https://localfirstweb.dev/ but Triplit stands out in a few ways:
* Support for an authoritative server
* Provides an optional hosted cloud service
* Relational querying without SQL
* Partial replication (this is a big one)
* Typescript schemas and type hinting in queries in return types

For more advanced CRDT stuff, the creator of the Fugue List CRDT, created [a Triplit-powered collaborative text editor](https://github.com/mweidner037/list-demos/blob/master/tripli...) using Quill and his [List Positions](https://github.com/mweidner037/list-positions) library that we plan to have tighter integrations with.
If your energy levels drop, or you lose interest, ports will become harder.

When you write code that has a short life span none of this matters. But when your software has a several year or decade life expectancy it will matter.

Also economics plays a role. If we have a real economic downturn in IT bit rot will become a huge problem for many small businesses.
When quickly browsing github projects to see what's worth my time I don't always click the website link.

I likely skip over repos with no screenshot much more.
Maybe they wouldn’t, but generally anyone with strict adherence to an ideology has fundamental thinking errors where they reject evidence inconsistent with the ideology. Communists white washing the badness of Che Guevara, Mao, and even Lenin/Stalin comes to mind.
The rest just export the practice outside their constituency's sight, an expensive luxury only affordable to developed nations
Your intuition is largely correct, but it is rarely a practical problem. The k language, including the ngn/k dialect has some lazy constructions for example !10000000 (iota of 10 million), will not create an array of with 10 million ints but a simple range from 0 to 10 million. Depending on the operator you will of course end up with such an array. There are also certain optimisations (I think they are called colloquialisms) where things like +|x, reverse x and take the first element, is translated into just take the last element.
I teach driving lessons as a job. Adults usually become proficient a little faster than kids, as they take it more seriously and have learned the laws through osmosis. Most of the time the difficulty with adults is they have no one to practice with.

Regarding skill, I think it's genetic. Some people can get their license in a week, others it takes months. Video game skills probably help.
It most certainly was. Reputable seller, used a test kit.
No, then the first pressurization would have led to the plug being blown out.
So nationalize then privatize?
And what the article doesn't say which the study does, is that the non-incel group also had these estimation errors but to a slightly lesser degree. (Or perhaps the self-reported baseline data frome the female survey participants had bias too).
Not for Big Macs, but if you’re interested I’ve been collecting Canadian grocery price data over the past couple of years here: https://grocerytracker.ca/
Just like the optimal amount of fraud is nonzero (https://www.bitsaboutmoney.com/archive/optimal-amount-of-fra...), the optimal number of dead children is too. A child doesn't have a meaningfully greater chance of dying on an airplane than an adult, so what this question is really asking (while crudely attempting to tug on the heartstrings) is whether we're willing to tolerate people dying in order to keep planes flying. The answer is obviously yes. We don't cancel all flights globally when a plane crashes and everyone dies, because we suddenly can't tolerate the risk anymore.
Three examples are powerd, bluetoothd, and more recently CalendarAgent. CalendarAgent spending 100% CPU syncing a calendar that has almost no entries is...astonishing. For powerd and bluetoothd I eventually wrote a program to keep an eye on them and terminate them if they use close to 100% CPU for more than a minute or so.
"work in STEM occupations. The Census Bureau reported in 2021 that a paltry 28% of STEM grads are working in these supposedly in-demand, highly paid and important STEM jobs. These include diverse sectors such as pharmaceuticals, chemicals and energy, but about half of STEM jobs are in computers, and tech firms typically complain the loudest of STEM shortages."

"It is employers, of course, who set wages at their firms, and current wage levels are not keeping most STEM grads in STEM jobs. Some of the wealthiest companies — Apple, Google, Adobe Systems and Intel — settled a class-action lawsuit for $415 million in 2015 after workers alleged employers used illegal means to prevent salary increases. Employers also incentivize moves from technical work to management with higher salaries at their own firms, yet many bemoan a shortage of technical STEM workers, not managers."

"Employers facing STEM shortages should bend over backwards to keep their scarce talent. Instead, research finds that STEM employers maintain unwelcoming environments for older workers as well as women and underrepresented minorities."

"Some STEM grads also reject STEM jobs because so many are meaningless or even harmful. Workers have fled social media companies following concerns that they spread misinformation, erode democracy and foster teen depression. Fossil fuel companies struggle for STEM talent due to their damage to the planet. Trillion-dollar tech companies are often accused of unfair trade practices and “surveillance capitalism” that mines users for personal data. STEM grads who want to make the world a better place may struggle to find a fit."

And then there is also that most American companies are cutting jobs without replacements, burning people out. And then outsourcing because Americans are too expensive. STEM isn't the issue, the companies are the problem. 19th century attitudes leading 21st century firms.
>I really feel like my childhood education did me a disservice by fostering the misconception that there was something special or unique about Nazis

The point of WW2 propaganda was to demonzie Nazis so much, and to distance them so much from the likes of you, me or your neighbour, in order to dehumanzie them in order to justify going to war with them and make killing them easier on the psyche for those who had to pull the trigger or send their sons on the battlefield to die fighting them, becasue in WW1 they discovered humans don't naturally want to kill other humans and will hesitate to pull the trigger making them shit soldiers, but if you demonzie and dehumanize the enemy enough, that hesitation loosens.

It's basic war propaganda 1-0-1. You now just realized Nazis are literally everywhere, not just in 1939 Germany.
VueJS, since it's what I use everywhere. I'm still at v2.7, but I'm not exactly splitting the atom here, so boring old technology is fine.

Maybe you’re thinking of something else, because Podman is mostly a replacement for Docker and shares most of the same command line, not k8s
You seem determined to frame the changes in a positive light. I disagree, but that's besides the point for the purposes of this discussion. My point is that in a society which heavily discourages premarital sex, dating sites might optimize the marriage process, as opposed to optimizing the hookup process. For an extreme example, see: https://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-57818758
Metal is younger than Mantle. Vulkan is based on Mantle.

If anything, Mantle inspired Apple.
Most new observability tools start narrow but every economic incentive is to expand. Which makes sense, really, because most production systems people have are complicated as all hell and have tons of different needs. Some tools are better than others at containing the chaos -- I will humbly submit that the one I work for, Honeycomb, is one of the best at doing this -- but support for several telemetry signals, visualization tools, alerting systems, dashboarding systems, etc. are all what people eventually ask for as they roll out observability to more of their production systems.

Put differently, when you have sufficient observability of your entire system, you now have a complete abstraction of that system represented in some other UI and data streams. There's just no way out of the fact that for larger systems, this will be complicated, and the tools that can represent this reality must also be complex.
Haha, I love uncensored quotes from scientists.

Show HN: OpenPledge – new approach for supporting open source projects
We provide a platform to connect developers with projects owners or organizations that need help with open source projects.

We are planning to launch our beta in February. We're on the lookout for early adopters and testers from the Hacker News community.

If you are interested join our wait list on: https://openpledge.io?source=hn
Related and interesting, there are some common visual patterns across many hallucinogenic experiences, “form constants”. Possibly related somehow to the organization of our visual system.

It blew my mind when I learned these exist, and especially when I learned there has been apparently little research into them. Maybe more informed minds than I have determined there’s nothing to learn from them, but it seems like there would be insights to gain about how we see.

Code to MRR in 61 days w ChatGPT
Last October I started teaching myself programming with the help of GPT and have been pleasantly surprised by how easy RoR and GPT have enabled me to come in such a short time. I'm on my 61st day of days with at least one commit, which has become my proxy for # of days coding, since I don't get to code every day.

I primarily optimized for learnings early on, looking to build out features that I thought were cool/interesting that would build up the knowledge/experience I was looking to (solution in mind, looking for a problem, if you will).

However, after some posts on other reddit subs around architecture went semi viral, I began to realize there was opportunity for me to deliver some unique and awesome value that I myself would want to benefit form.

I've been spending the last week or so polishing that "section" of the app, and just now got my very first subscription revenue! Seems unreal!

It's truly an amazing feeling to have the ability to (somewhat) be able to bring to market the ideas I have with technology. So incredibly grateful for Rails, for ChatGPT, and for people on Reddit, Twitter, and other places online who have been so helpful, encouraging, supportive, and more!

My North star is still focused on optimizing the speed at which I can spin up new apps for my ideas, but I can't help but feel attached to this one for it's significance in my journey!

The app helps people generate and understand architecture with, of course, AI.

How should I improve it? How important is its own domain? Should I try to make it a mobile app?
This is based on K. Another array language is J http://jsoftware.com In J this would be:

dot =: +/ . *
P =: 2 3 4
Q =: 1 0 2
P dot Q

That will return 10, the dot product P and Q.
I don’t even know what that means
Some customers you can't afford to have and some you can't afford to lose, especially not the ones that help you to perform at (or even above, by educating you) your potential.
Financial performance during the pandemic was very favorable for some orgs, and leadership will struggle to deliver on shareholder go forward expectations (which are arguably unrealistic in the new post pandemic macro, due to structural demographics, cost of money, etc), leading to performance art ("someone do something").

Somewhat similar to retail stores blaming theft for store closures when it's their fundamentals [1]. Like a magician, misdirection.

This. Quadlet wasn't really needed and just complicated matters for me, so I went back to docker-compose.
> There is a high chace they wouldn’t want to hire specifically this disobedient person.

I had a niggling suspicion the opposing views on her employability are because the commenters are on opposite ends of the authoritarian axis.

My thesis is people who strongly believe in (power) hierarchies as the natural order of things will see her actions as unacceptable, and an affront to social order itself since she has proven she can't be trusted to submit to the rightful authority regardless of circumstances.
Language learning, endurance biking, weight loss, and meditation at this point. (EDIT: some physical wound healing too, forgot about that)

Quitting alcohol was also a very similar battle after a decade of increasingly severe abuse of it. I had my last drink 467 days ago, and for the first 6 months or so basically the only things I had the mental fortitude to juggle were "don't lose my job" and "don't succumb to the bottle". Much easier said than done to willingly remove the one coping mechanism you could rely on all throughout NEETdom to graduating from a top university with honors, but I did it, thank goodness.
Peer review is an honor-based system (2008)
This article/post was circulated by many news sites in Greece and created a lot of discussions.

I have to say I'm a little bit disappointed, but I can understand the ranking based on various data. For people interested, Greece is quite nice for remote working, with many nice places to live/work/enjoy.
As the article clearly states near the top: if Airbus physically can't compete with Boeing because they have years of backlog and no ability to take on more orders, they are effectively not competing with Boeing.
I haven’t worked with protobufs, but I’m old enough to know why people thought they needed protobufs (because hand writing terse wire protocols is painfully dumb).

Be careful about “need”. When people are avoiding doing something painful they invent all sorts of rationalizations to try to avoid cognitive dissonance. You don’t reach for to tool that hurts to pick up. You reach for something else, and most do it subconsciously.

Nobody is going to try to read protobuf data. Doesn’t mean they don’t need to understand why the wire protocol fucked up.

I'm an evo psych guy. But isn't the top 3 preferences of women to be income and height completely inline with what the eco psych people claim? And you're saying people self reported height and income as a preference but the behavior doesn't play out with what people actually do?
Yeah viber, line.... Don't you see, big in more places where they were convinced it was "texting". No one was using those in the west/north America... Unless they needed to communicate with foreign family.

Hangouts doesn't use phone numbers. And WhatsApp not any simpler than hangouts, Messenger or iMessage. Which everyone would continue to use because that covers the majority of "accounts" or ecosystems that ppl were in. WhatsApp wasn't a thing other than pressure to connect with technically illiterate family aunty's and uncles in far away places that were told it was "texting". Meh
If you really assumed everyone is trying to kill you, you should really not go outside at all. Or if you see a car nearby, immediately swerve. You should probably never stop, at lights for example.

I can think of a few success stories that are dependant on China’s manufacturing prowess. I’m typing this on an iPhone.
Let's say I want to share a file with a friend internationally. First off, while there are some reasonable UXes for Syncthing, a lot of them are pretty basic, or rely on running a daemon and then connecting a web browser to Localhost to see what's up. Once they get it set up, then I have to actually set up the share with them. To get them hooked up to my share, I have to send them a 50+ character ID string somehow, which they then have to input into a UI that's far from easy to use. The key is much too long for me to want to read over the phone, and putting it in a chat somewhere means that if that chat ever leaks, my private key for my shared folder is out there. They offer a way to send a QR code, but that has the same leak risk, and scanning a QR code on the computer you're already on is awkward.

In short, it's a great tool, it works well in general, but the initial setup is pretty cumbersome if all I want to do is send a couple files to someone.

Additionally, I've had a couple time where even just syncing between my own devices broke. I think it was something where files were changed on both sides and the reconciliation algorithm got confused, but it was hard enough to debug for me, with direct access to both devices, and decades of experience running and programming computers, that I'd never want to try to debug that over the phone with a friend.
Reminds me of an interview I watched with an author where she used the word "bifurcated" instead of split, which made me chuckle, because she said "the book is actually bifurcated into two halves". Bifurcated already implies 2 parts ("bi"), so it seemed she was just using that word to sound smart. Who actually says bifurcated during a conversation?

I learned in my teens. I now hate driving. It is too much responsibility, and is boring. I can make anything go fast (including the Prius), but that has little overlap with safe and responsible driving (a proper understanding of human limits, such as how much we can track, how our eyes saccade, how quickly we can respond, makes it clear we need to drive slowly).
Sure and my experiences were at a McDonald's like fast food place we have in the US called Wendys and at a sub shop like Subway called Jersey Mikes.

I can semi understand 15 minutes at the sub shop and even asked the worker is it too late to make me a sub? She said no then proceeded to slam the meat, bread, etc on the counter, huff/puff and roll her eyes at me while her co-worker says we are closing soon. This same worker does this to many in the town as a handful of others complained about her in a FB group thread. She is still working there giving the same attitude. They are paid $20 an hour plus tips. After Coivd the employee is always right cause i guess they are hard to find now and retain.
But STEM grads even in the most dynamic sectors, including computer science and engineering, see their salary advantage fade over time, increasing the odds that they’ll leave for greener pastures.

In my experience, the half life of a STEM career in the USA is about 10 years. After 20 years, the majority of any graduating class are gone --- some is by choice but a lot is not.
Having a sensible discussion is even harder when people like the article's author want to preventively censor any criticism of immigration policies by banning every tool that might help generating said criticism. You can have a sensible discussion only if both sides are able to freely express and disseminate their point of view.
The far left are just as problematic as the far right, but the clear and present danger we are facing now is not from the far left - it wasn't them who stormed the Capitol.

umm what gave you that idea?
You're equating difficulties with impossibilities. The analogy of a small power generator holds even if it's the power that's small not the generator.

Looking back at your original post, I was simply saying that "you can't even run an LED on this" does not mean it's useless, and you may be able to scale it up. So I think we violently agree about the difficulty. I do see how my comment may have made someone think I meant that this could actually be used in phones as is. I mistakenly used phones as an analogous device.
