You can often tell a system is written in Go when it locks up with no feedback. Go gives the illusion that concurrency is easy, but it simply makes it easy to write fragile concurrent systems.

A common pattern is that one component crashes because of a bug or a misconfiguration, then the controlling component locks up because it can't control the crashed component, and then all the other components lock up because they can't communicate with the locked up controller.

Anyway that's my experience with several Go systems. Of course it's more a programming issue than a deficiency in Go itself. Though I think the way errors are return values that are easily ignored and are frustrating to deal with encourage this sort of lax behavior.
If anyone is wondering about first reponders' use of land lines, that necessity is to be alleviated with the United States setting aside some spectrum in 700MHz back in 2012.

Do a search for "band 14" - here is something to look at: FirstNet

https://www.firstnet.com/coverage/band-14.html

[My household used to be required to have a land line ages ago and I still pay (slight) attention to things in this space. I do not have first-hand experience any more with such matters.]
They’re not available for purchase.

As the post you linked to says:

> Shortly after establishing “.com”, the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority withdrew the possibility to purchase single letter domains. Existing domains such as x.com were allowed to stay.
A Compiler to access Python AI libraries in different languages

Looks like a few people mention the context menu displaying on some browsers. I'll take a proper look at this, thank you for mentioning it.
New Zealand is way lower than the US on that measure - almost half the density - yet around 87% of households here have access to FTTP with speeds of up to 800Mbps/500Mbps (you can get a slower plan for lower cost, but the lines all support at least that). Around 40% have actually connected, mostly because people don't have a reason to change from VDSL2.

That metric isn't the right one to look at.

There's something worse: only the enterprise edition respects certain group policies which it doesn't in the pro, all related to default application settings and such. Same with Office 365 subscriptions, you need some higher level than for example business standard to have it honor the "open links with system default browser" group policy. Unfortunately not covered in the Mozilla report.
You may be at work, and store is on the way to work. Also what you described is quite many steps, and the images have to be taken at certain angles to capture everything.

It would be directly connected to GPT and you can either use it as mobile app or with other devices or fridge itself directly.

So for example you are at work, about to leave home, store is on the way and then you ask this question from the app. Fridge takes photo, forwards it with certain prompts to OpenAI APIs and then gives you the response.
Ask HN: Should I sign partnership agreement if I have doubts about co-founder?
I'm being asked to sign a co-founder agreement, but I'm not feeling very comfortable because, for the last 5 months, we had a product that was way beyond an MVP and so far we have only 1 client that found us and 1 partnership that he found.
We had about 6 pilots and 2 of them were successful, but we didn't get any of them to pay us. We are a B2B Saas in the HR AI industry. And I'm worried that if nothing happens I'll be tying myself to a co-founder that is not able to bring clients and partnerships and later investments.

I'm the CTO and I'm the only one that can build the product, so I'm not worried about the product, but I'm worried about the business side of things. I'm not sure if I should sign the agreement or not. I'm not sure if I should ask for a clause that would void the agreement if we don't get any clients in the next 3 months.

I have been bringing this issue up for a while now, but he always says that he is working on it and that we have to be patient. Frankly, my confidence is not very high at this point.
He is working hard, he is smart and a good person, he is dedicated and really wants to make this work.
But when someone send out 200 emails in a month and gets only 1 reply and gives up on emails and starts to focus on things that are not related to getting clients, I start to worry.

I know reaching out to people is hard work and can be tedios and I know that it's not easy to get clients, but I'm not sure if I should be worried or not at this point. Also it's not the lack of clients that really worries me, but the lack of learnings about our product market fit.

He would be a CEO and we are onboarding another co-founder who would be focusing on sales because he isn't able to sell. But I'm not sure if that would be enough. And having a CEO who is not able to bring clients seems like a problem. I mean, you wouldn't make someone a striker that hasn't scored any goals.

It's a sensitive situation and I don't want my lack of confidence right now to destroy our relationship. But I also don't want to be tied to someone that may not be good enough.

Any advice would be appreciated

Outlook has been a nightmare lately regarding this. It could be that it is my organization that pushed this, but links never open in the default browser, and get routed through a Microsoft link, which for some reason does not work on Edge. The only way to open links is to right-click them, copy, open browser, paste in address bar.
That's the worst part (and I know that most people will never buy a license because they get it through their OEM or just crack it) but Microsoft are still happy to charge you £220 for a Windows 11 Pro licence [0] and shove ads in your face.

Not necessarily. I agree, being a smart scientist doesn’t make one a good writer , however, most of the times the inaccessibility of a text comes from a high presumed knowledge of the reader. But if you dial the presumption down, then the readers versed in the field would have to drag through the text full of explanations they already know. And, excuse my assumption, most relevant citations come from the people in the field.
MacOS allows you to "hard click" (long click) a text selection in any application, which pops up a bubble that lets you do a web search for that phrase. But the search only launches Safari. I wasted at least a couple hours scouring boards and kext files, screwing with automation macros, trying to find a way to make this potentially helpful shortcut not open Safari, but instead open Firefox. Eventually I just gave up. Apple buried the decision so deep in the OS that it's basically impossible to change the default browser for search.

Aha... thanks for reminding me. Firefox asked me yesterday if I wanted to let it run on startup. The options were "Activate" and "Not Now"

To me this reads like it's going to behave like many apps nowadays, there is rarely a "No, go away", but only "No, but annoy me again in the future".

One time after an update Firefox loaded a page that said "Thank you for loving Firefox". Eww, no?

God damnit, why do I tolerate such asshole behaviors from our OS and browsers? Chrome also deserves a duck you..

Chu Nom is no Chinese Characters, I can't read Cho Noms for example (can read kanji/hanja without any issue), it is more like `Vietnamese` Characters, it is its own set of unique logograms, if that makes sense.

It is complex and difficult to use/write, abolishing it really didn't take too much effort, as most of the population is illiterate at the time.
I admit I don't have kids, but AFAIK kids can do all kind of stuff, like putting crayons in the dishwasher or accidentally breaking things. You usually don't have sensors for all kinds of scenario (what if my kid breaks a glass? what if she starts drawing on the wall?). You either don't care and fix the thing later on, or you try to prevent that from happening, or a combination of the two. Sensors and notifications are not a reasonable solution to everything.
> give a number to businesses

> never answer that phone

Yes. A long time ago had to give a landline number to school, to have a discussion with them 6 months later on why they expected us to ever pick it.

We only ever used that line for international phone calls, and after cancelling it it basically made no difference in our life, except the savings. We give our mobile numbers when asked for landline, bullshit numbers to spam companies, block the ones that still get a real number, and ask relatives to call us on any other reliable service (international call quality was garbage anyway)

I've "smartified" my washing machine by using as smart plug with included power meter. This gives me all the info I want to know about the washing machine and there are no vendors spying on my washing habits.

When the replacement thermostat of my fridge broke I replaced it with an ESP32 with a DS18B20 and a relay, now it posts temperature data to a logging server and the temperature range can be adjusted over WiFi when needed. Here again, I guess if it were really smart, that this would mean that the vendor would place the requirement of me sharing all the data with them so that they then give me a subset of data.
Yes and that is how I know it does not work. There are senders I cannot get into known.

The ‘Sinosphere’ is the cultural and linguistic area which has been influenced by China. This area includes the Vietnamese language, which has undergone heavy Chinese influence. At the same time, Vietnamese is an Austroasiatic language by descent, related to other Austroasiatic languages like Khmer (as you note), Mon and Santhali. Most other Austronesian languages are not part of the Sinosphere, but Vietnamese is.

Interesting, Cloudflare blocks me from seeing the website.

> Why have I been blocked?
This website is using a security service to protect itself from online attacks. The action you just performed triggered the security solution. There are several actions that could trigger this block including submitting a certain word or phrase, a SQL command or malformed data.
Yes of course, but for example you already have your phone, laptops and computers with many things built in them. If you are ok with those, then it should be possible to build those smart devices with similar security and potential for attack.

> I would argue that adopting the Latin alphabets was a great mistake. It basically severe all the young generations from all their historical writings. Also, Latinized Vietnamese scripts is one the most hideous scripts out there.

No thanks. Most historical texts have been transliterated into modern chữ quốc ngữ without much compromise in meaning and literary eloquence. The writing facilitates learning Latin languages so much, and most importantly it has perfect phonemic orthography: there exists a bijection between well-formed words and speech, i.e., spelling bee is not a thing in Vietnamese.

Chinese has a small set of pronunciations and, as a consequence, a huge number of homophones. I think that's partly the reason why words are usually 2 characters: Yes, there is a character that means 'forest', for example, but when you want to actually say 'forest' it is combined with another character (of similar meaning) so that the spoken word is intelligible.

There is a huge loss of information when writing in pinyin (Latin characters) vs. ideograms.

It might be the same in Vietnamese.

I suspect a lot of the shift away from sinograms in Vietnam was due to nationalism, which is also partly why China is so attached to them.

That explains my view that it takes months to learn a language whilst others say it takes days.

You can't be proficient in a language until you can write programs in to and that includes being able to build and use common libraries, debug in it and use common tools well.
The original comment was "drop the index for being "too complicated"". Having to go from "working tree -> index -> committed". In comparison Mercurial only has working "tree -> committed" and Jujutsu only has "committed". The idea of dropping the index is to avoid having extra states changes must pass through. Technically Jujutsu still has the index, as it uses libgit, but the concept isn't exposed to the end user.

>this will just lead to more devs not caring about properly splitting up changes

I strongly disagree. jj split reduces the friction in splitting commits. Just think what you have to do to split a commit with git following your 2 step guidance. git reset HEAD~ && git add -p commit && git add -A && git commit. It's even worse for jj split -r @-- (split the 2nd to last commit (ignoring your working commit)). For git you have to do git rebase -i HEAD~2 && git add -p commit && git add -A && git commit && git rebase --continue. In the interactive rebase ui you select the 2nd to last commit to be edited. People avoid splitting with git because there is too much friction. It takes too many commands. It's hard to remember. You can screw up and waste even more time. If you want to encourage devs to split up commits then make it easy to do.
At least every home that has copper should get fiber.

The excuse that the US is too big or we can't do it is bull. You did it before for electricity and telephone. It just requires competency, money and an infrastructure that isn't for profit.

Don't get me wrong, the services provided on the infrastructure can definitely be for profit but not the glass itself.

I think there's a major misunderstanding on what "precision" and controlled de-orbit means here. Precision doesn't mean a targeted landing. It simply means aiming for a certain latitude by adjusting the orbit accordingly, which is sufficient to make the difference between deorbiting over a desert or ocean and potentially densely populated coastlines or other population centres (central Europe comes to mind). Controlled means that it's the operator who decides how exactly and when that happens, i.e. they remain in control of the spacecraft and its orbital parameters throughout the process.

So if you control the orbit, you control the zone of re-entry. It's not a point or an oval in this case, but a "strip" a couple of kilometres wide. This is all that's required if the goal is to avoid major population centres.

This also means that the target is not "all over the world" as you put it - it's a very narrow, well defined stripe/trace (remember the scale we're talking about here!) and that's exactly what a controlled de-orbit is about.

We are in agreement.. so why is it that the white men are turning extremist and listening to Joe Rogan? It seems like it's not even the same set of white men, the followers of Joe Rogan/other "toxic" male figures probably come from more privileged backgrounds.
