> always ending in a similar deadlock where they just stop replying, either because they're sick of me, or I've "won"

My general experience on Hacker News is that threads rarely go beyond one or two replies, so I'll often tap out on the assumption that the other party isn't likely to actually read/respond to any thread more than a couple days old. As far as I know, there's not any indicator when someone replies to your comments, unless you go and check manually?

If I'm just using the site wrong, do please let me know!

Otherwise, I'd suggest you might want to update from "sick of me" to "never saw the reply due to the format of the site". For what it's worth, it took me a while to adjust to that

this song played an important part in the public exchange that concluded with both artists dead from fatal gunshot wounds.

the seemingly out of place "as a record label" portion of Tan's quote probably should have engendered some pause in the discerning reader.

I am dreaming of a future where brain implants allow us installing adblockers into our head. Until, we should contition ourselves against flamebait and other harmful practices distorting our life, those are not in the interest of those paying big money for it (the customers together). In fact it is agitating for us, misleading and manipulating us, robbing us, injurious to us. Let me be an object lession how not to do, first of clicking on the article, and second, writing a long comment. Should not deserve any attention! Shall fall onto our blind spot permanently.

The idea of the ad itself is just slightly approaching the entertaining zone - the only aspect that can be mentioned in favour of established marketing practices - but with a distinct smell of all the sweat used to come up with it for such a pity 'innovation' or 'function'. I feel the force of desperation in it.
I'm just saying since parent comment says he's a gentle human being but he's been always a foul mouth on Twitter.
I'm responding to your claim that he says nothing about this attempt. He does, in fact, say something about this attempt.

I guess perhaps you were only saying that that particular claim says nothing about this attempt? I mean, OK, sure, but you gave a notably incomplete description of your article. From your description, one would think that he only spoke in generality about string theory and made no reply to this particular idea, when in fact he did.
Show HN: A straightforward RISC-V 32-bit emulator
Most amigas users are using some kind of solid state storage these days which will ameliorate this a little. But many/most are using assorted expansion and accelerator cards which can substantially increase the power draw.

It's a bit if a moveable feast how much power an amiga is drawing these days. Certainly, back in the 90s, the original a1200 power supplies often needed to be replaced with something that could deliver more, and the a500 supplies were favoured

Before Elon, posts on Twitter were sorted and hidden at the whim of engagement-maximizing algorithm. After Elon, the same is the case, maybe with the same tweak to the algorithm.

I thought the idea that timeline sorting order on social media sites is deterministic or scrutable to the viewer is long dead by now - it's not been the case for at least a good decade now!
There were proposals for mechanism for extending types from several of Wirth's students, and Franz - one of the co-authors of Juice - was one of the people who around that time wrote a report on a proposal that'd enable runtime-loadable interface-based extension, so all of this would certainly be fixable.

Juice also flows naturally from Franz PhD thesis, which was on JIT compilation of Oberon from what in some sense was a compressed serialized reduced form of the AST instead of bytecode [I'll stress this is a gross oversimplification - his compiler does do more processing, so I guess what is serialized is closer to an IR in tree form than the AST]. I don't know how much that changed in Juice, as I've never looked at it much but from the description it remains at least similar in concept. I've wished more work had gone into that ever since I read his PhD thesis in '94.

According to [1] (which might be incomplete, IDK) cell phone sales went from 100 million per year in 1997 to 400 million per year in 2000. Subsequently, sales rose to 1.5 billion per year.

So when talking about how many people have cell phones, the difference between "mid 90s" and "late 90s" makes a big difference :)

Interesting, from that links i see some replies like this:

> Also, the FreeBSD license was more relaxed and commercial products (like NetAPP) could include and extend FreeBSD without disclosing their modifications.

and then (same comment):

> Our frustration with lack of support for FreeBSD moved us to choose Linux and Windows

I think these two things are strongly correlated: the bsd license allow companies to avoid contributing back improvements, and this prevents the main FreeBSD codebase from getting better.

I think that in the long run this is detrimental to projects.

There's no such thing as a property that can't find a renter, only a property whose rent is too high.

Many landlords are bad at math from what I've found. If you're asking for $2400 and no one is biting, it makes more sense to drop to $2200 than hold out for a month to try and get $2400, because at $2400 it will take a year to catch up.
> If I have to spend thought cycles on the commit message, that is time that goes from other productive endeavours.

This is a bad excuse against writing proper commit messages, since it can be easily extended to user and development documentation. If you want to classify these as productive endeavors while commit messages as non-productive, it basically boils down to doing as little as possible that you can get away with.

> On my work I make 1-15 commits a day.

That is hardly hectic enough to avoid good commit messages. I have seen people writing good commit messages at much higher commit rates. Frankly, good commit messages are actually time savers if you have a high commit rates.

> I particularly think that high paced application development do not benefit from git as documentation.

Things like good commit messages and a lot of other best practices are completely avoidable in the name of high pace. However, the time savings are marginal compared to the quality you sacrifice.
This kind of argument is actually totally valid. But only if you subscribe to the current meta of widely accepted handwaving.

Externalities are never a part of capitalist math. Non-trivial consequences can never hurt if one never looks further than their own nose.

As I understand it the issue is that when the old c64 power supplies failed the 12v line would go overvoltage and fry your computer. The amiga power supplies are designed differently and don't have this "feature".

Though it is often worth replacing the original amiga power supplies as the capacitors are often shot by this point
socializing doesn't have to be IRL anymore thanks to all this technology. passively doom scrolling on TikTok or Instagram, contributing nothing isn't socializing, agreed. But there's a wealth of digital social interaction happening online in discords and private slacks and mattermosts. it's not the same as having irl friends, but it augments them with people that are into the same things you are that would be unlikely to find irl.

it's not your grandparents socializing but it is actually socializing.

This is an excellent report, and congratulations are due to the security teams at CS for a quick detection, response and investigation.

It also highlights the need for a faster move in the entire industry away from long-lived service account credentials (access tokens) and toward federated workload identity systems like OpenId connect in the software supply chain.

These tokens too often provide elevated privileges in devops tools while bypassing MFA, and in many cases are rotated yearly. Github [1], Gitlab, and AZDO now support OIDC, so update your service connections now!

Yeah, apparently it was a pop reference, and that makes it okay?

The problem with references is that not everybody gets the reference, and without that (and possibly even with) this is a death threat. And with today's highly polarized and volatile political situation, you need to be really careful with that.

I've come to expect this sort of behaviour from random internet trolls, but a CEO really should know better. I think this counts as a disqualifying lapse of judgement.
The rent seeking aspect of the any industrial complex is driven by manufactured consent, for politicians to pillage the public coffers they have access to, and so it's heavily overpriced - the price not driven by free market but by war profiteering.

In Elon Musk biography by Isaacson, Elon explains the importance to why he sued NASA on behalf of SpaceX - in regards to the $227 million sole-source contract NASA awarded to Kistler in 2004; the strength or weight of the importance here outweighed any personal-emotional feelings and relationships he had, he stuck to his guns of seeing the corruption and understanding the negative impact and unfairness to SpaceX - perhaps selfish in nature but if Elon's nature is for fairness and justice, long live Elon.

But yes, save blanket bombing a whole territory, guerilla warfare with necessity-survival will lead to the most creative possibilities.

> If one's own side of the horeshoe [1] had made the gaffe, it's sticks and stones.

Some of us have enough principles to complain even when "our" side does horrible stuff. When a friend does it, I might be more inclined to talk to them in private rather than blast them in public, but that's a mix of "I am more likely to change their mind if I don't antagonize them by making this public" and "I have absolutely no social media presence, so me calling someone out doesn't really make a difference."

> If an executive approves a design that kills people, they should be responsible.

Do you really think it's executives approving design specifics such as materials used?

> The idea that the substantially lower paid employee who thinks "this looks like a reasonable choice" is more responsible than the ostensibly more competent, and again certainly compensated as such, that approves of the approach

Unfortunately competency in the actual field is never a requirement for management and executives. There are whole diplomas and schools founded upon the principle that management is management and business is business, regardless of the field and what is actually being managed. So thinking executives have any competencies outside of maybe managing people and business is misguided hope.

Yes, executives should be held responsible for big failures at their companies (and not getting tens of millions of dollars in a golden parachute and retiring with yachts). But that doesn't mean that the people who actually designed, QAed, approved the design should get off free.
I wish I could find the clip, I think it's another Tupac song, where it plays a news clip of a stressed sounding woman saying "he says he wants to see his rivals deceased" (roughly) in response to what I assume is a line in "Can't C me". Anyway, it's funny because that clip was making fun, but sounds a lot like all the "calling for someone to die is never ok" feigned pearl clutching I've seen here. The tweet was dumb, insisting on taking it literally in spite of all evidence, for the purpose of outrage is worse.

Hi! I'm a Product Manager (3-year experience), with a background in Machine Learning and Deep Learning (former engineer).

Most comfortable with technical topics (think of me as a product-y software engineer), I've coded quite a bit as a PM (contributing to production repos, as well as crafting notebooks/ML tasks with DB queries for product analysis). I've got a good eye for design, and I'm happy building mockups in Figma as well. I'm a 0-1, hands-on type of PM, prefer small companies to large orgs.

Spent the bulk of my career in healthcare/life sciences and creative/entertainment industries. Happy to explore other fields than health this time; not interested in finance/insurance positions.
I had a runny nose most of my life - diagnosed allergies and etc.

One visit in laryngologist got me thinking; he said: "It's simple. Wet wounds heal fast and well. Dry ones can even not heal at all. You have dry lung mucosa and that's why you get infected easily: it's like an open wound".

He was right, after keeping > 50% humidity around myself I got better. That got me thinking of experimenting more.

What if, I had a running nose, because the body wanted to make my lungs less dry? So I forced myself to breath through nose for two weeks and again, got better. Still doing it, years after.
Conversely, if I spent $3.5k on a device, I'm not paying a cent more to watch YouTube on it.
It definitely sounds like hype not reproducibility! And although I'm a giant fan of Eno I really think the current cutting-edge is in the demoscene in terms of generative art..
Current sensors can respond in microseconds if needed. Tension takes milliseconds to build up.

I would say the current sensor is probably the right engineering design for reliability, but clearly poor implementation choices were made in this case.

An even better design is a BLDC motor with saliency feedback. That avoids brushes (wear component), and gives both angle and torque feedback. Unfortunately I think someone must have patented it because nobody uses such a design for cheap stuff, despite it being far cheaper.
Masochists, more like.
Yes? I definitely don't plan on treating someone's opinion on how to handle fleets of server racks worth $15k/unit equivalent to mine when they're a 19 year old underachiever who has written basic calculator apps for 2 years.
> Switching to hardware decoding is likely to slow down your pipeline.

If thats your experience, then something is off with your setup.

Hardware decoding on a modern computer might seem equally fast as software until you look at power usage where hw decode is a hard win.
Even so, the resources used to decode modern high end codecs like x265 or av1 will be major and hard to miss.

but anyway discussed are encoding &decoding.

And video encoding goes from like 3 fps in software to 100s of fps in hardware, making it possible at all with any resolution and quality to speak of.

You need encoding to stream your video, like in a video meeting.

If you're not trolling, you've genuinely just misread the room. One of them just said "I'm guessing this is irony." and surely you would agree that your first comment was ironic? You were using irony to mock the downvoters, you don't actually think "How dare you propose a healthier lifestyle instead of a machine or app to solve this problem", as you clarified in your next comments, but to strangers online who don't know you they have to guess (or, as they did, ask) whether you're being ironic/sarcastic or not.

It's incredible you can interpret somebody asking if you were being ironic - in response to a comment you wrote intentionally to be ironic, but without making that clear - as being "passive aggressive".

Why do you think this is a flawed decision to do so ? In my opinion this is a conscious choice by Selig both times and a good one.

There are business models where venture funding is unsuitable as there will never be hockey stick growth or unit economics or competitive moats etc, traditionally companies usually small operate here, they are not startups, just SMB doing non flashy stuff.

Similarly also many business models unsuitable talented product teams to risk on , that are perfect for a highly talented freelancer such as Christian Selig - like third party API dependent ideas.

He is amongst the best indie developers in the Apple ecosystem and doesn't have to worry about competition quality too much in these ideas.

These are four main ways that I know of, to be a professional talented product developer -

1. Become a founder, raise funding, chase growth and do things you don't really like anymore

2. Freelance and do boring consulting work, trying to keep customer happy

3. Work in a big bureaucratic tech company and be frustrated constantly with everything from politics to red tape.

4. Pour your heart and soul into a early stage startup and watch it either outgrow you or crash and burn.

He instead gets to build products at a massive scale without having any overhead of an organization, and also making decent amount of money (upwards of few million/year with Apollo), what more can a developer aspire for ?
