Apple seems to be working on it. A lot of times when I press that POI icon, I get Trip Advisor reviews and not Yelp. Additionally, there is thumbs up/down UI in the Apple Maps app to rate a POI. An example would be Fairhaven Village Inn, Bellingham, WA: no Yelp droppings anywhere to be found.
It's by no means a limiting factor if they don't have one, but when I'm interviewing for mid - staff+ level engineers in my specific field I absolutely love when they have some sort of project portfolio I can look at. Github, Gitlab, medium, whatever.

I learn so little from a persons bullet pointed resume that when I don't have those the interviews feel like I'm pretty much walking in completely ignorant to this persons interests and skills over and over again.

When I can go "oh neat, jbob99 worked on a foss project I used a few years ago!" it's nice.

But I also couldn't care less about being "creeped" on. Half of my career was built because I'm not an anonymous random software guy and companies know my work.

You're using a completely random throwaway nick to stay anonymous on here, while I've literally gotten jobs from hn and grown my career from it. Just like I did on IRC when I was 13. It's an interesting difference of use.

I don't mean one is better or worse at all and I totally get wanting to be anonymous.
That's a fair response for then, but not today where you're spoiled for choice. Spanner was released as a service in 2017, which isn't far off.

Email is a tottering stack of standards which mostly-but-not-completely solve problems discovered over time. As the article states it would be a good target for a complete rethink, but I don't think any of the solutions presented are promising avenues to explore.

As one example, consider the proposed "recipient stamps". It requires a complex trust configuration, always-on email clients, and synchronizing 'stamp books' across different clients. I expect that makes it intractable in practice.

Better would be 'postage' where each email contains references to one or more payment methods. The receiver and intermediaries can then deduct a fee from any available payment methods at their discretion. Some common postage methods would be a hashcash service, or crypto-currency address, or pre-approved captcha credits, or a service to request a moderately large Internet transfer.

Mixing decisions have to be understood in context.

The live rehearsal recording might sound warmer and more natural on a decent pair of headphones, but it'd sound like complete mush on AM radio. The very sparse, crisp mixes of the 80s can sound harsh and synthetic to a modern listener, but they sound superb on a cassette boombox.

Most pop mix engineers habitually toggle between a high quality monitoring system and a "grot box" speaker (often in mono) with good transient response but very limited frequency range. They understand that their job isn't to produce a mix that sounds good in the studio, but a compromise mix that sounds as good as possible across a wide range of low-fidelity playback systems.

Modern mixes tend to be more neutral because of the general improvement in playback fidelity. Still, a competent pop mix engineer is giving a great deal of thought to how well a mix will work in a noisy restaurant or through the built-in speakers on a TV. They're thinking about people listening in the car or listening through one earbud.

You're just doubling down on the premise that a theory founded on a formalism based on unbounded numbers requires unbounded numbers to work. Sure, but why is that necessarily reflective of reality? Why does that entail that no other formalism that doesn't embed infinities / continuity is also not possible? I simply see no reason to accept your conclusion. The infinities you see as essential could very well simply be artifacts of our formalisms.

In fact, I'd conjecture that our continuous formalisms are at the very heart of some core problems in physics [1], and that at least some of those problems can be resolved by exploring more discrete formalisms. I suppose we'll see.

Out of curiosity - does flipper handle cloning of IC/ID 125khz/13.56Mhz fobs and is smart enough to trick the receiver into accepting it?

Reading and cloning of those fobs was easy, but the receiver wasn't accepting reusable fobs. I had to buy a special write-once fob from Lab401.
I've never really seen retention risk tooling used for evil in the way that most HN readers seem to think it is; it's kind of interesting and eye-opening to me to see the strong negative sentiment towards it.

I've worked in management at companies with risk-based retention tools, and I've always seen them used as just that... retention tools. If anything, getting a high risk score as a high performer would usually be greatly in an employee's best interest, as it would be another justification to the higher-ups for a raise or better job assignment.

To be clear, I'm personally generally against these kind of panopticon data-slurp initiatives overall, I'm just surprised that the initial reaction is so strongly "my manager will use this to fire me" when I've only ever seen the opposite.
I agree. I think the project is super cool, but either the author overestimates children's abilities and attention or the content targets older kids.

>>(1) Automating post-checkup data entry with patient data inside medical EHR systems (ie submitting billing codes, adding notes, etc),

FULL FUCKING STOP.

[We talk about AI alignment. THIS is an aligment issue]

Do you understand billing code fraud?

If you supply this function - you will *eliminate ANY AND ALL human accountability* unless you have ALSO built a fully auditable provenance from DR <-ehr-whatever-> codes.

Codes ARE why the US health system is BS.

Here - if you want to be altruistic - then you will take it upon the fact that CODES are one of the most F'd up aspects of costing.

Codes = [medical service provided]

so code = 50 = checkup = [$50 <--- WHO THE HECK KNOWS]

So lets say I am Big Hospital. "No, we will only allow $25 for code 50" - and so they get that deal.

I am single clinic so they have to charge $50

Build a dashboard for what the large medical groups can negotiate per code, vs how a small hospital or clinic group gets per code.

Only automate it if you can literally show a dash of all providers and groups and what they can charge per code.

Infact - code pricing is a medical stock market.

(each hospital group negotiates between the price they will pay per code, how much lobbying is a factor and all these other factors...

what we really need an LLM for is to literally map out all the BS in the Code negotiations btwn groups, pharma, insurance, lobbying, kickbacks, political)

Thats the medical holy grail.

> This was still a suborbital flight and they cannot do much of anything that is commercially practical on suborbital flights

If they had flown a slightly steeper ascent and burned for a little longer (possibly a minute if not less), they would have ended in a stable orbit. Not doing that was intentional.

They do not need engine relight capability to reach orbit - plenty of orbital rockets exist that cannot relight their final stage.
I agree with your general point but there are relational distributed databases, open source and "serverless", that are compatible with MySQL (planetscale, tidb, vitess...) and postgres (citus, cockroachdb...)

i didn't think that video would be so interesting. so it is a volume constraint? why don't other bugs do this? just hold more liquid? or do they face other constraints that cicadas don't have?

Very curious.

constraints meaning those that would influence evolution ofc
It's totally unfair to say that we don't understand design systems or component libraries when I mentioned in multiple comments that in our case we don't have a component library. Component library is a valid use case, as I mentioned previously, but it seems to me that our setup with no component library is fairly uncommon.
Nice. I've been using GPT-4-turbo with a custom system prompt for this until now. Going to try this out.

> delivering results 50x faster at 50x less cost

What about quality of results? Are you measuring that too? Did you do so for the traditional reference practice? Using what sort of methodology? How did it your technique compare in quality? What kind of errors was it most likely to make? What techniques have you devised for spotting those errors? Are they the same kind of errors that users would experience when outsourcing? Are the errors easier or harder to spot for one than the other? Are they faster to remediate with one?

I see a clever concept but given the state of LLM's and the nature of how they work, I don't know that nominal cost and speed differences are really enough to sell on. Not for something "crucial to big business decisions." I'd want to know that my failure/miss rate is no worse than when outsourcing and that my net cost and time (including error identification and recovery) still end up ahead. I don't see either of those vital issues touched upon here.
Still? I would have thought by now they would have switched to something like a Phase One IXH - https://heritage-digitaltransitions.com/dt-ixh-150mp-cultura...

It seems to me that the logical conclusion for captcha is to connect it indirectly to electronic id. This could be done in a privacy respecting way.

You could get some token from the website. It could include encrypted service name and policies, like rate limit, that the authority should enforce. The client passes the token to the eId authority. The authority signs it and adds timestamp, but no user info. Client gives token to the service. Something like that. This is a bad top of mind example.

I think we'll need to rely a lot more on eID in the future. I think it can be done in a good way but then it needs to be thought through before it gets adopted. And we have to be able to trust the eId institutes.

This is precisely why I never created a glassdoor account. It's exactly the kind of thing I feared would happen.
> The key to finding the right balance is honesty, transparency, and constant measurement.

The first two are payed only lip service in all but the most exceptional startups. My last one there was so little honesty and transparency despite the outward appearance of such being polished to seem as if it was.

I think the problem is the boards, especially when you have an engineer heavy founder set, those savvy investor types run circles around the C-suite. I literally had my CTO tell me when complaining about some big partners "there is a power imbalance and they know it" as an excuse to not even try to stop their bad behavior!

You seem to only consider the roundtrip to the satellite and back. To talk to anything other than the satellite itself, you need to double that. The lowest allowed angle to the horizon is 25°. This makes the worst-case RTT for talking to someone near you on the ground 17ms.

> They may actually need in total more satellites than at higher orbits.

This is a desirable feature. There are limits on how much bandwidth they can push through a single satellite, and minimum allowed angular separations between two satellites the same place can be talking to. Lower orbit allow larger constellations, because the ground stations cumulatively have "more sky".

The primary reason to push for VLEO is that it is a safer orbit. As a general rule, everyone is better off the lower large constellations are, because in case of a worst-case collision the debris will deorbit faster. It's also better for astronomy.
"Droplet superpropulsion in an energetically constrained insect"(https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-023-36376-5 ) is a great paper from the same authors - I came across it last year when I was deep in a project involving droplet manipulation on superhydrophobic surfaces. Nature is wild!

Linux distros are still free to create their own CA and convince manufacturers to trust it.
Coming from Google, where Spanner is this magical technology that supports infinite horizontal sharding with transactions and has become the standard storage engine for everything at Google (almost every project not using Spanner was moving to Spanner), I'm curious how Figma evaluated Cloud Spanner. Cloud Spanner does have a postgres translation layer, though I don't know how well it works.

It seems like they've (hopefully only temporarily) given up real transactional support with their horizontal postgres scheme?
As a Rust dev myself, can we stop the trend of adding "in Rust" to titles?

The loud part should be the thing that was built, not the thing it was built with.

That said, this is super cool. I have a project that I can definitely benefit from this. :)
When they buy the phone the default option is unrestricted. The default should be restricted, including when resetting. Including when setting up other accounts. This is a solved problem, but it would cost big tech billions in lost revenue from malicious markets.

A battery powered heated vest. In my experience the person will be very weak and can easily get cold.

Time and attention. Ask them what they want/need. There can be a lot of up and down and the treatment can be really hard (there are lots of types of chemo) and for others it might not be too bad.

A lot depends on the person and the treatment course. They may want to talk about it, or not. Face death or not. Just going through the treatment is a huge ordeal though and they'll be tired so may not have much to say. I guess I'm trying to say that they could very well be so sick that they don't need anything to help pass the time. Or, if they are feeling well then, yeah, they may be bored.
These kinds of security mindsets exist because, as a network architect, I know at least a couple of ways to put myself between you and your destination, and from there to read and/or rewrite your unencrypted data. Of course, if I manage any network between you and your destination, things get a lot more easier.

I do not want my coworkers to do that on any of my communications, nor my family, nor anybody.

The only known way to prevent this is encryption.

And no, it has nothing to do with browsers : the same applies to my emails, ssh, IRC and whatever.

Yes, actually. Hiring sucks. We wanted to make it better.

I believe we did do that by showing the HR world that data driven insights could be a better indicator than what school someone went to or whether they played Ultimate Frisbee (a real hiring signal used by a Fortune 500 tech co).

We didn’t solve hiring. It’s a tough problem with many strange human biases and rituals. But I do think we made it better even if only a little.
Agreed.

We didn't open source this functionality on purpose, and are very very specific about what use-cases we onboard that require it.

That being said, we've gotten to learn a lot more about browser fingerprinting and captcha solving and it's a really interesting space.

Like many Mediterranean cultures, the people like to appreciate family/friends time and food and they always make sure to make those a priority. In other terms, not rich, but chill laid off people.

Overwork culture have no place and society doesn't encourage that in general. In my opinion, for two reasons 1) it's not a competitive society as in China or India, as there is enough resources for everyone. 2) Hard work is not properly rewarded as in the USA/EU, as the country suffers from corruption and it has failed to develop a modern meritocratic economy, so far.

Flight recorders are fireproof / water proof / shock proof devices on the airplane and are limited in size of memory they can have.

Why would anyone marry themselves to Google? That sounds like the most boneheaded move possible.

First, you should never be beholden to a single vendor for the most critical technological underpinnings. You're backing yourself into a corner.

But more importantly, Google can't even figure out how to prioritize their cloud efforts. That's not a good partnership to be in for anyone except Google.

I wouldn't care if my solution was 10x worse than Cloud Spanner from a technology perspective. It'd be 1000x better from a strategy perspective.

You can hire engineers to do consistency at scale. It's your core competency and you can't just handwave and outsource that, lest you wind up stuck in a crevasse. Hire smart engineers and do the work yourself. It'll pay off.
I want to use Beeper, but funneling all my communications through hosted bridges (especially so Signal) is gonna be a nope, until they release more very deep technical and verifiable information about how on-device bridges work.
