Comcast quoted rates in this range for installations in areas near Palo Alto. IIRC my friend was quoted $20k for the installation. She might have gone for it if they'd charged $5/mo after that, but of course Comcast wouldn't be so kind. Last I heard, she was still on AT&T copper. Hopefully Starlink will be able to help people like this, who are just outside the reach of existing wired internet.

Menlo park (and much of the peninsula) are such a no brainer for heat pumps. Like you mentioned, ~$5500 in incentives plus interest free financing can net to almost no out-of-pocket costs for most homeowners in San Mateo County. Many contractors aren't as familiar with heat pumps, and their quotes are often so expensive that it doesn't make economic sense to fuel switch. We are focused on offering affordable heat pump installations that have a positive ROI for homeowners.
You can work backwards. For $5T investment, you need revenues of at least $500B. Nvidia revenues are currently ~18B/quarter or roughly $75B/yr. If you think 5X growth in AI in next 5 year is possible but current supply chain cannot deliver then all these totally makes sense.

To me, AI is starting to replace convectional search within early adopters already. The new search is not firing query to get references but rather converse to get answer. In my vicinity, 90% of the population has not even caught up on this progress, let alone change of muscle memory which often takes half decade.

And search is still just one of many segments. So, market has 10X growth potential from here with fair certainty. Although, as it often happens, we will overshoot expectations that causes crash followed by more regularized growth.

Fun thing is that a ton of wild predictions that created Internet bubble in 2000 actually were rather timid. Internet did changed everything and delivered way beyond expected during the bubble. It was only a matter of time.

We had an excess of monitors at work at one point.. so I don't have to imagine.

I made a challenge of setting up as many as my computer could handle. Ended up with 5 monitors.

I found I could only use two actively (I guess that would be one now that I have an ultrawide), and a third passively (music player, maybe CI status).

I have to agree to the sentiment many here have: a big monitor is nice, but other than that there's much more to gain by being efficient at using virtual desktops (can recommend virtual desktop autohotkey script)

Plot twist: the "blank page" hides internal information and a parting employee's rant against the boss in an official company publication and you only find out weeks later because of strange search engine results.

(No, definitely not triggered.)
that's kind of the point, you want to eliminate companies just doing labor cost arbitrage rather than hiring globally because they actually need a unique talent they can't find in the US. If that's the case, they will happily pay the premium because that person still provides ROI even at US pay rates. That's supposed to be how H1B visas work as well
Excretion and simple movement from point to point, accurately describes most of my life.
Not to mention Chrome was bundled into every random software installer, everything from MP3 players to torrent clients. You had to be vigilant, one misclick in a series of "next" buttons and congrats, you've got Chrome installed.

That's awesome. Keep them in check!
I don't have numbers, but there seem to be a constant stream of new programming books coming out by manning, pakt, and O'Reilly.

So it seems to me just that it's not that people don't like books, they take longer to produce and this have less visibility to those not looking explicitly for them
Or if you do it once, then the film industry expects and requests for you to do it all the time, maybe? This is me just spit balling. If pulling this data costs m, then its m * number of request indefinitely. m is lower than the cost of a lawsuit over a sufficient number of requests. Where as, Reddit eats a lot of cost up front to try to prevent the film industry from racking up costs constantly requesting this information. And it perhaps bleed outside of the film industry. If they capitulate to film, then music might be next, followed by game studios, followed by software companies.
It's absolutely horrifying, I know.

I didn’t pay anywhere near that price per kWh here in Maine. It was $0.16 in November 2023, and is $0.10 as of January 1.

> Yeah, thats what I figured. Im not sure if I want the tradeoff of calling .GetValue in multiple places just to save calling validate in maybe 2 or 3 places.

The tradeoff is not that you save calling validate, it’s that you avoid forgetting to call validate in the first place, because when you forget to validate, you get a type error.

IMO it’s a little more clear this way:

type Ticket struct {
requestor Username
assignee Username

>I'll tell you that I'm getting overseas talent for roles where 10 years ago I would have hired entry level talent in the US. But since my company is fully remote and distributed, the downside to hiring in LatAm and Eastern Europe has been significantly reduced.

I really don't get the argument that remote work means that it's easier to outsource jobs or hire overseas talent. The fact that you can get overseas talent for a fraction of the cost of hiring domestic talent sounds to me like a vastly more compelling reason to hire overseas or outsource, and yet companies nonetheless hired a lot of US talent despite this fact. Microsoft and Google had the experience and know-how necessary to make a globally distributed workforce work, and yet the headcount at their overseas offices were paltry compared to the number of staff employed at home. Why is that?

How does a change in work culture tip the scales in any meaningful way? Especially compared to that?

Yeah, sure, you hear stories about companies hiring more overseas talent now that remote work has been normalized, but I have a hard time believing that things would be completely different and they'd be a largely US-based shop if it weren't for remote work being a widely accepted thing.

If you aren't convinced by now that this argument is bullshit, take a look at those companies who were fully-remote and distributed waaaaay before it got popular, especially those who have maps of where all their employees are located. One thing you'll note is that, despite being fully remote, most of their workforce is domestic, and a relatively small portion of their workforce lives in countries that have gained notoriety as outsourcing destinations.

Automattic, is a great example of what I'm talking about: https://automattic.com/about/

Just to clarify, I'm not dismissing overseas talent, I'm dismissing the idea of overseas talent being used a bogeyman that might suppress wages and take our jobs. If it were that easy, it would have happened already.

Out of the 1600 packages, just looking at package names:

227 are related to Jest, 167 are related to Babel, 93 are related to PostCSS, 66 are related to Webpack, 47 are related to Firebase, 43 are related to Webpack, 24 are related to Workbox.

There are even more packages that are related to those but whose name doesn't include the main product.

These multi-packages, in 90% of cases, are all maintained by the same people and often live in the same GitHub repository.

Isn't that the idea that unsafe code can do unsafe things internally while exposing a safe interface? So in your example the bug would be in the unsafe code, which shouldn't have allowed the unsafety to leak into the safe code.

Intention leaves room for interpretation.

Despite common belief in Europe, there is plenty of strongly binding consumer and labor protection legislation in the US (especially at the state level). It just happens to be much more verbose and specific to take "interpretation" out of the equation. And when companies slither around some loophole, it gets amended, ideally; if some corporate lobbyist doesn't get their way (something that also, definitely occurs in the EU).

That being said, I'm rooting for the ECJ to win here. Maybe it would kickstart a change that's also sorely needed in the US.
Ask HN: Is there a quality non-Chinese based video editing app?
I noticed that almost all of the top video editing apps in the Android store are based out of China, have privacy policies longer than my arm and collect far more information than seems reasonable. For one of my kids who likes to play around with video I'd like to find a quality video editing app that does not end up shipping all of his/our information halfway across the planet for whatever reasons. Is there such a thing, and what in the opinion of HN's users is the best such app?

Thank you very much for reading / responding.

PWAs pose a security risk. Any malicious site can masquerade as another app, such as your bank. If Apple is implementing this intentionally, then they are justified.
People should be able to live wherever they want. That doesn't imply others should have to subsidize them doing so. It is really quite simple.

If someone remote wants power, they should secure power and pay for it at a market clearing rate, given the cost and risk to deliver it.

I think that's what they were saying (and what I would agree with). The Go std lib is very complete for important things, especially in the context of networked services. So the default is that you don't have to pull in many libraries for common needs.
1 to ultrawide or 1 to 2 is a huge jump, because you can keep two full windows open at a time and not need to task switch. Think documentation and code, code and running example, etc.

2 to 3 is a bit of a jump because now you can keep slack or teams or email on the third monitor (rotating is great for this).

But my other two monitors after that really don't give me that much more.
Overall, I think you make a fairly convincing argument for all sorts of social changes - the problem is, that's not actually what you're advocating for.

> We ALL deserve progress. We ALL deserve to earn a living commensurate with our skills, and we ALL deserve to be supported, housed, and fed, and we already have the resources to do the vast, vast majority of it.

This is a great argument for UBI, or socialism, or... well, see, the problem is precisely that you never actually define anything actionable here. You've successfully identified a major problem, but your only actual proposal is "oppose AI artwork".

The problem is, "opposing one specific form of progress" doesn't actually do much at all to fix the issue. And indeed, if we had UBI or increased socialism/charity programs, then we wouldn't need to stop ANY form of progress.

And, of course, fixing the underlying issue is incredibly hard. We've tried Communism twice and proven that it's vastly more destructive. The Nordic Model seems to be doing well, but there's all sorts of questions on how it scales. And you're not actually proposing anything, so there's no room for the real, meaningful debate about those methods.
Alternating pairs emerges directly from those rules. Once one person goes north, a non-conflicting person can go south. Then, the current east and west people have arrived before the new north and south people.

I agree and don't really work in this area anyway, but work with brilliant developers who didn't go that route just to add something on their resume. There are obviously tradeoffs and it isn't a silver bullet. Trading one kind of complexity for another may make sense depending on the use.
The fossil fuel capitalists are so very unhappy about this ban, they are still going on about it in the financial news. I have to say, I love it. Low natural gas prices directly benefit me, and isn't it our gas?

They should ban oil exports next.. (for "national security")

Actually export tariffs would be better than outright bans.
Turns out they were right about that one though.
I don't think it's possible for a framework to do all of the following: add functionality, preserve existing functionality, and reduce the possibility of dubious implementations.

Also, I do think packages like those from tanstack have made it easier to implement react well. From what I can tell, most people's bad experiences with react come from applications which incorrectly use redux or similar global state as a cache for data from the server. The new Redux Toolkit Query and similar Tanstack Query approaches to handling server state are much more manageable, and in conjunction with appropriately using URLSearchParams you can often get away with no/minimal global state.

In other words, React is not the problem.
HTTP/3 may have good speed for webpages that trigger many HTTP requests to source ads and support tracking/telemetry from multiple, disparate servers controlled by different entitites. (Makes sense since HTTP/3 was designed by an advertising company.) But HTTP/3 speed is not any better than HTTP/1.1 speed for downloading a file or a series of files from the same server in a single TCP connection. Some have said it's worse. (HTTP/1.1 was not designed by an advertising company so if it sucks for ads/tracking/telemetry then that makes perfect sense.)
