That’s a largely meaningless statement if your aim is to understand who is driving what, and why.
These sites just didn’t link to any other site that had anything cool. And you couldn’t type in your own link obviously.

Except when they slapped on that badge, it linked to netscape.com which had a search engine.
Life tip: you can give up on projects that do work, too. The only mistakes are planning a long-term commitment prematurely, and framing it as "giving up" instead of "moving on."

Ha, my German professor did that too (Tübingen!).

It's helped a lot with paperwork, the way you can book trips, order and get stuff delivered, sign up for services online banking immediately etc.

But I agree with your point in that it's also highly overrated in terms of its importance generally, and largely distraction/entertainment based.

The real heavy lifters like running water and electricity, food production and transport, without which we'd devolve into chaos within 48 hours, are largely taken for granted.

People probably don't think about the fact that that every morning, you can get up in a nice heated house/apartment, use the toilet and not give it a second thought, have a hot shower and a nice breakfast, and that's probably more important than a lot of what, say, Facebook offers.
We already have neck strain with multi-monitor setups and bad office ergonomics. I know it's not likely in the nearest future, but I'm still hopeful we might be less sore if headsets become both light and common enough.
Second this but for Rider, should be the same engine I think.

Jetbrains are really kicking some goals.

They're big and heavy and have a lot of wear parts that are expensive to maintain. Standing in one spot not blinking isn't great. I can play pinball in VR and have about an equally good experience these days.

Paramount Global is for sale. Who's buying and how did we get here?
Isn’t that confusing cause and effect? You’re getting interest because they’re paying it to you. They wanted to borrow, and even if there’s no risk, you won’t lend it out for free.

Individual reddit subs can moderate and remove content however they like. Nothing to do with reddit the company.
Right, that’s essentially what I’m advocating for a few replies up. The person I’m discussing it with rejected that premise the sake of argument.
Yeah, and we've seen some pervasive changes about people in the past decade. Just because people made those changes to their bodies their identity, doesn't mean that those changes haven't happened.
I can see becoming more efficient at feeling confident in your opinion, but how can you know you were right - particularly the ones you dismissed? (Though I don't know what else one could do).

Never tell me the odds.
I haven’t bothered to dig through the details of this report, but the total energy use in petroleum refining is about 4% of US total energy consumption.

https://www.osti.gov/biblio/7261027

Even making conservative assumptions about how much of that is electricity, net demand for electricity is going to go up.

This is also what the people who model this stuff for a living are predicting - somewhere around doubling to tripling of electricity demand by 2050 IIRC.
We use the same term in the med device industry as well. I primarily work on software-as-a-medical-device (SaMD) and a "recall" typically almost always involves a software and/or documentation update.
> 13. You would press the 'start' button to shut off the engine.

Is this not how pretty much all modern cars work?(that use push-button ignition, which I think is almost all of them?)

It’s how my 2010 Toyota works - if the engine is off, and I press the button (while foot is on the brake) the engine starts. If I push the button while the engine is running, it turns off. This seems like sensible behavior to me
I could be wrong here, but I believe this (ceph, et al) is the answer to the question:
> """But what if I don't have a JBOD of 6x18TB hard drives with good amount of ECC RAM for ZFS?
What if I have 3 raspberry pi 4's, at different houses with 3x 12TB externals on them, and 2 other computers with 2x 4TB externals on them, and I want to use that all together with some redundancy/error checking?"
That would give (3x3x12)+(2x2x4)=124 TB of storage, vs 108TB in the ZFS single box case (of raw storage).

If you could figure out the distributed part (and inconsistency in disk size and such), then this is a very nice system to have.
More than anything, it's surprising more aren't calling for him to step down.

Thanks a lot, I'll have a proper look at how this can happen.
B5 is my favorite sci-fi series of all time but Farscape is up there.

My favorite thing about Farscape is that the writers would just throw so much shit at the wall to see what would stick. So many episodes felt like the writers asking the question "what if X was true", and then spend an episode (or an entire arc) exploring it. They'd let the question lead THEM rather than the other way around"
I didn't live in the US though (In fact I've never even visited it!)

Or do they take foreign prescriptions too?
Sage, Maxima, Fricas, etc. should also cope. I'm surprised SymPy gave you a NotImplementedError for differentiation; I think I've only met them in integration and DE solving.
Some months ago Visual Pinball was on HN's front page. I took the impetus to actually build a full size virtual pinball cabinet.

It turns out the wife actually enjoys it more than I do. Instead I enjoyed building it, and now I've been deep diving into fixing the scripting on some of the older EM (electro-mechanical) tables (virtual ones) that are out there.

Learning Visual Basic (or a variant of it) was never on my Bingo card....
I'm not aware of that. I believe my tool could be useful in certain cases. ^^
You can fix for 24 months at 21p/kWh now with octopus business.

I don't recommend lenovo laptops. Last year I bought a thinkbook 15 g4 and have been struggling with performance issues from day one. Lagging, stuttering, low fps, thermal throttling etc. Tried everything but couldn't fix it. Not possible to overclock or undervolt. Very poor performance and poor tech support.
Cool idea, would love to see a post-mortem on why it didn’t work.
Hoarding gold isn't inherently bad, but many super rich people who arguably don't deserve nearly as much wealth as they have (worker exploitation, buying politicians, inheritance money, etc.), especially when juxtaposed with the terrible wealth inequality gap that they have the greatest ability to amend (through not exploiting, donating wealth or being taxed, not buying politicians to favor them, etc.). If everyone had a good baseline of living and politicians won't be bought to revert things, then no, I don't see a major issue with gold hoarders. But that's not the world we live in today.
Every field has jargon and assumed knowledge. If you're writing a computer science paper, you're not going to start by teaching the reader grade school math.
Do you think it is less than they offer Coca-Cola or BMW or the U.S. Dept of Forestry?

What kind of access and information do you believe they offer to the USA intelligence services? Why do you think it is ok for one government to have information about you, but not another?

How do you think the Chinese military can use this information against you or people you care about? How do you think the USA government can use this information against you and people you care about? How do you think your local school district or grocery store or your employer can use this information against you? What makes the Chinese military scarier than everybody else?
I don't remember the specific restrictions, but I remember that you could only click links that were on the allowed site.

So if you tried to go to example.com, you would be redirected to bank.com. But if a link on bank.com got you to example.com, you could visit it that way.

Obviously address bars are one of the restricted things. I feel like there might have been others, but I don't recall the specifics.
Charge Robotics | Senior Mechanical Engineer | Full-time | Onsite | SF Bay Area

Hi HN! We’re a YC-backed startup building robots that build large-scale solar farms. We just got back from the first commercial deployment of our system on a real-world solar construction site (video + more details coming soon!).

It turns out that construction companies literally can't build solar fast enough, so what we're doing is a crucial part of switching the grid over to renewable generation. We're looking to bring another talented mechanical engineer onto our small team.

You’ll be a key contributor, helping bring our next generation of mobile solar factory to life.

Come work with us if you love:

* Fast-paced prototype development with software and hardware components

* Making a positive climate impact through your work

* Hacking on massive construction equipment!

I'm not sure there is nothing to this theory, but it's definitely not as straightforward as it's presented here. Here's a decent article from last week that talks about why "money on the sidelines" is a myth: https://realinvestmentadvice.com/money-market-cash-on-the-si...
I remember when people were saying that about the Falcon 9, which now handles a majority of the world’s space launches. SpaceX has some good, proven engineers; belittling their work because they’re using an aggressive testing schedule (involving, yes, the occasional dramatic explosion) is both unkind and unlikely to age well as commentary.

It has absolutely needed significant performance improvements for years. Vanilla JS is somewhere in the ballpark of 30x (x not percent) faster than react. If that’s not calling for significant performance optimization necessity, I don’t know what is.

Nobody has ever complained about their app feeling better to use because it performs better.

Users do not sit there like “man, I really wish the web was SLOWER”.

Additionally, assuming this lives up to the claims, or even lives up to a quarter of the claims, then the optimization is, by definition, NOT premature. Premature optimization is the act of optimizing before you even know if something is slow, or before you measure.

I suppose you are probably working under the Functional Programming definition of “premature optimization” where they tell you to never measure (because it just makes FP look bad).
> How can the "tech sector" be laying lots of people off (https://layoffs.fyi/) but also crushing earnings and growing a lot?

Here's one way to think about it: The rise in interest rates has set off a retooling of the tech sector, a retooling which requires workers moving between jobs. The workers being laid off are going from working in areas of the economy that were profitable (or simply flush in funding) in the environment of 2021, but no longer profitable in 2023/2024, to areas of the economy that are profitable today.

It's a vulnerability. Report it to infosec. Even if they likely don't fix vulns themselves, they are the ones tracking SLAs for remediation and coordinating tickets, etc.

If your infosec team does not have a contact email (or preferably, several, e.g. "incident@", "security@", etc), slack/teams/webex channel, or escalation process for reporting security issues, that is decently well-known to employees, they are not doing their jobs well.

Quarterly infosec bulletins? Infosec day? "Cool incidents" annual recaps?

I cannot imagine working on an infosec team that doesn't make itself very visible, and very *available*, to other groups, and always position themselves as the 'catch-all' place for any security issues (which these bugs clearly are).
Setting aside whether wealth should be capped, wouldn’t doing it in this manner cause massive price mis-signalling?
A ban might be hard to word and implement, but a tax? Just tax the living hell out of it. Congress has access to more subtle and effective levers than an outright ban.
Funny thing, while FFmpeg's CLI options aren't super intuitive, I do find it much easier to use than any GUI video editing or conversion program I've ever found. Those things can really write the book on byzantine user interfaces. At least Google or ChatGPT can usually give me fairly clear sets of options for FFmpeg that will do what I want.
They always have done always will do and society has almost never done anything about it and isn't doing anything about it now. AI is just another tool in a the toolbox and as I'll keep repeating, the problem is never with the tool but with the tools using the tool.

How can we justify complaining about AI for these reasons; we've all sat on our asses and now they're are billionaires and soon to be trillionaires. We've already failed, dude.
A reputational interest is impossible to falsify. But I also disagree: I don’t think the ADA would lose any face over a change in this position to most people (and to the anti-fluoride people, nothing will change).

> The rest of the world doesn't do it because of the evidence against it and widespread availability of modern dental care products containing fluoride.

Much of continental Europe does fluoridation through dietary additions (e.g. salt). Just because it isn’t in the water doesn’t mean it isn’t added. There are some countries that notably don’t fluoridate at all, and many fall into two camps: they either don’t have safe municipal water supplies, or already have naturally high fluoride levels (sometimes higher than the US’s introduced levels).

You’ve flipped the causality, by the way: it’s in Dr. Strangelove because it is a conspiracy wingnut thing to obsess over.
Aside from that, it's not obvious to me why we need a Bezos to achieve this. If people were capped to $5 billion (which seems absurdly high to me), would AWS never come into existence?
Simple Tricks and Nonsense
hi, this is aiden

around 2 yrs ago, i messed up benchmarks in the past with million v1. i'm sorry about putting out false information. once the reddit post came out i stopped working/advertising million entirely. i then spent 3 months redesigning the entire library. i tried my best to make it as fast as possible and accurate. benchmarks are real now, see here: https://krausest.github.io/js-framework-benchmark/current.ht...
Well, I thought I did but I guess I didn't.

Figured out what happened, though; Still not quite satisfied, but I can let it ride.

Not everyone who hates musk Hates him because of the 'cultural war'. Personally my turning point was the pedophile comments levied against the diver who rescued those kids trapped in that cave combined with him repeatedly lying to pump TSLA stock and ever thinking the boring company was an idea he could execute on.

That said, I've seen no evidence that he's contributed more than funding and hype for his companies. Perhaps that's enough for some people to call him a genius, and I suppose in those domains he is, but everything I've seen w.r.t his engineering indicates to me that he's an idiot. That wouldn't be a problem we're it not for him giving out bad engineering takes everywhere, but I digress.

Have used SeaweedFS to store billions of thumbnails. The tooling is a bit clunky, but it mostly works. The performance is very good for small-ish objects (memory usage + latency), and latency remains consistently good into 99.9 percentiles. We had some issues with data loss and downtime, but that was mostly our own fault.

My policy proposal for reducing concentration of power is:

1) maximum revenue per employee at privately held companies, eg. $1m

2) maximum ownership of a company by a single person or entity of, say, 5%

What this means is that when you hit a good stride with a business and solve the entrepreneurial problem, you have to go public and sell your stake in it.

Everyone gets a rewarding pay day, but there is greater accountability and earlier on and more even distribution of the gains.

How about from a government that conquers land and sells it to profiteers on the cheap (who then rent it out and/or resell it for considerable profit)?

How about from a government that - instead of taxing that aforementioned conquered land and the ownership thereof - shifts the tax burden onto the working class (via income and sales taxes), robbing us blind while subsidizing the owning class (who is then happy to rob the working class further via skyrocketing rents)?

The vast majority of people "earning" tens of millions of dollars in this country are not doing so via their own hard work. They are doing so by rentseeking - by being parasites on local, national, and global economies. Their wealth derives from theft, plain and simple.

And there just so happens to be a solution to that theft: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Land_value_tax
How is a question who’s edges are unique to the company but if you’re coming in to a situation like that one generally-solid approach is to accept that things will suck for a while, and might even be worse short-term, the prioritize chipping away at the underlying causes.

Something like reducing staff ticket time by 20%, then using that 20% for feedback, strategy, and structure. Some (maybe even most if you’re lucky) of the front-line staff will have enough experience and insight to be invaluable here (though it is likely they won’t have the language yet to express it in ways that make sense to management). As the company goes through the process of communication, discovery, awareness, planning, and execution (preferably with a tight feedback loop) some of the underlying causes will be addressed, the front-line pressure will ease off, the cascade effect will see ease-off in other departments as well, and that 20% can go down to 5% or even 0 (not recommended lol) which will further reduce the workload to give longer-lasting relief.

Then with staff time “out of the red” the company can start thinking about what they will do in a fire-free future.
