I guess it depends what you mean by work. Would I work at my current job or another such job in the industry? No. Would I work for anyone else in general? No, probably not.

But I'd probably immediately try to start a company or other ambitious project with a decent chunk of the proceeds, simply because I can't ever be happy just relaxing and doing nothing.
It's not just an 'extraneous rant' as you phrase it. It is full on hate speech. The man _hates_ trans individuals. This speaks volumes to the type of monster this person is.
Not saying that’s what happened here, but if people are searching for “images of X” and you remove your image of X, how is that Google’s fault?
Namecheap is ok, but unfortunately they also practice a despicable trend in domain registration, which is to hijack domains with less than five letters and classify them as premium, right on the act of registration. A concrete example: When trying to register aucky.com [for an auction site], a domain resulting from brainstorming and creation, previously non-existent, I was informed that it was a premium domain and therefore subject to other acquisition conditions. I did not accept it and had to content myself with the registration under my country's TLD, which has less punch than a pure .com. My failed domain is up for grabs in the premium market, and the issue will have to be settled in court. This is almost criminal and it has to stop.
I've gotten so used to using Makefiles with Go dev that for my other side projects with node, python, ruby, etc. I wrap the tools and commands I can't remember in a Makefile. A quick squizz after a few months away reminds me of how that environment works with building, testing, etc.
CHERI was originally based on MIPS, then ported to ARM and later RISC-V.
Ask HN: Agents? Are you making them?
I wanted to start a discussion around AI agents, where you see them being helpful and whether you're working on any. Didn't see much in search about this.
My original comment was only focused on construction approvals and the challenges with the City' Committee of Adjustments. Things are changing, where power to approve projects is moving more towards the Provincial level (which has pros: a saner, faster process. And cons: less ways for you to shape your local community, industrial-strength corruption)

In terms of economics, I'm not an expert. It looks like much of the local economy is based on reselling the same houses to each other at ever increasing prices.
That's not stupid. Perhaps you could only place orders to be traded "at start" or "at end" beforehand, and they will be all processed at once.
Not to mention the world of CP/M business machines which was surprisingly large in the UK well into the late 80s, again thanks to Amstrad: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amstrad_PCW
Search systems aren't real people or real businesses either. Never mind details like how you define and enforce "real" in a decentralized way across N legal systems with wildly varying ideas of what it means to be a "legitimate" business. There is no system or ledger you can query to find out if a given person is real or a business is legitimate. This is exceptionally unlikely to change on a useful timescale.

The basic problem with email is that it assumed good-faith participation from the parties involved. It was assumed that only legitimate actors would have the resources to participate and they would always be well-behaved. This, it turns out, was flawed on several counts. For one, it assumed legitimacy could be assured. For another, it assumed legitimate users would be well-behaved and would never abuse services for gain. For a third, it assumed account takeovers or other impersonation attacks wouldn't happen.

Every de-centralized system that aspires to not have email's problems needs to take them seriously.
Why would the U2F-on-Ledger route stop working?
Their rationale for Go is explained in the article.

> Strictly speaking, any program will do, but we need to ensure that the program in question has no dependencies on the file system. Linking it statically provides benefits. Go programs are statically linked by default, and to illustrate that the following approach works with any kind of program, we have chosen to embed a Go program into the kernel.

Please refrain from inciting language flamewars.
Why are you putting "(Free)" and "™"?

Any particular stock market is not "the" market or "the free" market. It's just one of many. There are lots of stock markets, and there are lots of other markets, from commodities to real estate etc. Companies sometimes list on multiple stock markets.

And markets are generally private entities, though they sometimes involve government regulation around information accuracy, transparency, antitrust, etc. This isn't something unique or peculiar to stock markets.

And sure they can trade on their own exchange. It's really not any different from how you can put "Google Trends" as a search topic into Google Trends.
More like 24/5, open 24 hours on weekdays only.
Same here, I run a lot of different equipment on grden variety UPS's on our solar grid - but that is fed by redundant 18KW three-phase inverters and 72KWH of batteries... so that probably looks a lot like utility power from the perspective of the UPS's.

Overall, the discussion tangentially reminds me of a common theme in aviation - twin vs single engine aircraft. With two engines, the chance of having an engine failure at a critical time is doubled.
Build a CLI / complex task as part of your project, then invoke it via make. This pattern is much more about documenting and composing steps than implementing them

You can use other name servers, point it to your favourite provider. Done.
> Midi being an “artist” tool places it more as a medium like paint.

I’ve used MIDI “as paint”.

Written music using code to MIDI(1), and wrote “cross instrument” music, ie using my keyboard as drum machine.

But these days MIDI is chiefly an archival method for me.

Every time I touch my keyboard is recorded, is much smaller than a comparable audio recording, by design “forced fidelity” in the recording, the music is “searchable”, and I am able to pipe the MIDI format through transcription software (which would be near impossible from an audio recording today).

There's a tendency to criticize articles/ journalists in the comments on this site
Most of these responses reveal a fundamental problem with individuals not realizing the limits of their knowledge. The issues with sedative administration deaths almost uniformly have nothing to do with the administration but everything to do with the assessments (or lack of) and treatments performed at the same time. In the McClain case this issue wasn't the dosing (people have frequently been given doses ten times above intended without harm) but rather the lack of monitoring of his airway. The gentleman was aspirating during the restraint prior to EMS arrival and this was not treated for some time. It makes no sense to blame a drug with an incredibly wide therapeutic index such as ketamine when the real issue is the lack of proper assessment.
Yeah, so I think that the issue isn't that Apple does several things well, it's that they do something well and then only consume that product themselves.

To an extent every business must generalise and specialise in various configurations as they get going and differentiate themselves, but at the point where Apple is building its own silicon which it then puts in its own hardware on which you can install software from their app store, regulators should be able to clearly say "if you're going to make chips, you have to let other people buy them too" and "if you're going to have an app store you have to let other people have an app store too" and so on.

That's not feasible for a very small business, but it's not as if you can apply a "market cap" point at which it becomes feasible. You can however pretty easily tell when a company has a "wholesale" division and a "retail" division and is essentially selling to themselves in the same way as another company might sell to them. It's always challenging codifying that stuff into law but we have a pretty long history of doing so, I don't think it would be an insurmountable regulatory challenge.
If a problem can be reduced to efficiently sampling from the summation of an exponentially large number of FFT's, then a quantum computer will destroy a classical computer.

If a task can't be efficiently reduced to such a problem, then a QC probably won't ever help at all; the square root time advantage from grover's algorithm is too easily overwhelmed by simple engineering factors.
I think some addictions are powerful that they are effectively chronic diseases. The problem is that managing this disease may require government or some other entity to be a drug dealer for highly-addictive substances.

I can’t speak for others, but that’s a step too far for me.
Can I ask when/why you would use custom name servers? I’m unfamiliar with them.
In fairness this one’s predecessor has some pretty accessible articles that I’ve actually read. It’s more like an encyclopedia. Some things I have the background for, others not so much.
It does, when you save. Under export, there is also a "Plain SVG" option which excludes the xmlns:inkscape and xmlns:sodipodi namespaces and therefore eliminates quite a bit.

Evolution of man: how Ryan Gosling changed stardom, cinema and society
politely disagree -- this framing misses an orthogonal component.. purpose.. a simple example is a desktop publishing app on a desktop computer. Minus complicated fringe cases, the purpose of the software and its setting are not really related to security in the way that communications on a network are related to security.

The furor and obsession with networked communication has obscured simplicity in so many cases.
Federal individual income tax wasnt a thing until 1916, so it just wasn’t an issue. I believe state income taxes only started shortly before that.
It seems that a society would require more people in order for this to be so, so that the same level of services can be provided due to the decrease in productivity. Accordingly, more services will be needed to account for that increase in people. This raises the question of whether there is a point where the two trends reach some type of harmony. Perhaps the evolution of "AI" and robotics will get us there (or not).

Ultimately, this raises the question of whether all this actually ultimately places us in a better position, e.g., the state of humanity as seen in something like the anime Darling in the Franxx. Interestingly, this is similar to the notion that poorer people that work less desirable jobs for less money are less lonely.
The hardest program I've ever written
Analogue technology can be frustrating – is that part of the appeal?
That particular shortcoming is more about training data than fundamental limitations of the architecture (of which there are plenty too).

To do well on tasks related to pronunciation the model needs either to have been trained on audio data (just starting to be done - e.g. Reka.ai), and/or trained extensively on dictionary/etc pronunciation data and tasks related to its use.
> It is still open whether we can build quantum computers with sufficiently low noise to run Shor‘s algorithm.

This statement should delimit between theory and experiment.

Theoretically, the question of building a quantum computer with low enough noise to run Shor's has been solved. In fact it was solved by Shor himself in the 1990s: https://arxiv.org/abs/quant-ph/9605011.

Experimentally, we are just getting started with building quantum computers with low enough noise: https://blogs.microsoft.com/blog/2024/04/03/advancing-scienc....

Experimentally, it will always be open whether a quantum computer can run Shor's until it actually run Shor's. The point is that progress in the field has not stagnated since it's founding.
Public key crypto is vulnerable to period finding, but symmetrical key cryptography is pretty safe from quantum computing advances.
I have two domains with GD. One was transfered a few weeks ago and the other is still just hanging out there with no way to know what's going on. I'm not confident it's going to remain mine.
Even with the latest update blogspam from India still dominates my niche. Welcome to the internet of the 2020s where investing in your product means jackshit because wordpress idiots can press a button and yoast an article.

If you're a creator-type why on earth would you ever build a web product in this type of environment? Join a corp or create trash and ride the wave -- at least then you'll have some semblance of a normal life instead of a living like a starving artist into your 30s
People might misunderstand that there is similar liquidity at all operating hours, and try to trade in size on that basis and be alarmed by price changes , when the liquidity is actually during specific times. Right now when prices go haywire outside regular market hours, there's a asterisk, stop loss orders and margin calls aren't necessarily triggered or executed, and people tend to wait patiently to seek liquidity market open.
> The easiest way to improve this would be to capture as much of the architecture as possible in formats that are easy to read and manipulate. In particular, instruction encodings and control/status registers are easily described by simple JSON/YAML/XML/… formats.

This has been something I wish was available for ARM pseudocode. It’d be ideal to just generate an equivalent Python, SystemVerilog, etc. library from the ARM ARM instead of having to reimplement a subset of it yourself.
"Boring tasks shatter flow state even in the absence of external distractions"?
Ha! That's actually... not a terrible idea.

It's not really clear that it serves any societal purpose to have trading all day long. It's just a lot of traders super glued to the news and trying to react instantly. And trades take a couple of days to settle anyways.

I'm really curious if anyone can point to important economic efficiences that would be lost if trading was restricted to two 15-minute windows per day.
I don't understand the objection to the names. You think someone who is not in the "Grafana world" would easier understand an arbitrary name like "Thor" than "Grafana Operator"? I have no clue what Mimir is, or Loki, but "Grafana operator" is clearly a kubernetes operator for deploying Grafana. Like a "postgres operator" I read about sometime. How are things from norse mythology supposed to make it easier to understand software components and the relations between them?
AWS is on 24/7 yet somehow we manage to keep it running.

This is definitely a book that's worth purchasing: The care that Nystrom put into the designing the physical copy is worth it by itself if you're a print nerd. The hand-drawn illustrations plus the excellent writing make this better than 99% of technical books.
Yes, please post it, you piqued my curiosity!
Letting an email provider manage the domain.
How would you handle the part of transparency that requires knowing who owns the assets?
The message says, in part, "No need to buy a ticket, just tap in on a card reader at the start of your journey and touch out at the end." The article goes on, "The Passenger Operated Machine (POM), to use the TfL name for the ticket machines, doesn’t show the pop-up for every journey that they can sell tickets for because not every destination accepts contactless PAYG tickets."

Does this mean that there are at least three ways to pay: contactless credit/debit card, contactless PAYG ticket, and paper/magnetic stripe ticket? If so, what happens if you use a contactless PAYG ticket to enter a station but find, at your destination, that this ticket is not accepted?
I had heard about Z80’s 4-bit ALU (2x for 8-bit math). Is this considered a major bottleneck? Were there later extensions that added higher bit integer math?

Well, North Dakota is pretty close. It is indeed very large but its population is only slightly larger than Luxembourg.

"with Windows 2000, PCs will be as reliable as large systems."

That didn't turn out to be true. Also, I was lucky enough to run SuSE Linux (7?) side by side with Windows 2000 on identical hardware. Linux was tangibly faster and more reliable.

Attributing magical properties to XML should also make your head spin.
People can work in different Time Zones!

It's actually kinda nnoying here in Australia that I have to wait for the NASDAQ to open, which means staying up later than I'd like on occasion!
The different is in using quantization aware training, where the quantization of the weights is already simulated during the training. This helps to restructure the network in a way where it can optimally store information in the allotted number of bits per weight.

When the NN is quantized only after training, a lot of information is lost, or you have to use less aggressive quantization that will have a lot of redundancy.
How to Make Architecture Decisions
This is how I’ve almost always done things. I don’t like making changes with my registrar very often and I don’t like having everyone need access. So keeping their services limited reduces the security scope.
No.

The stock market should be an equalizer, but this will mostly benefit buy-side firms that have enough headcount or the infrastructure to support 24/7 trading.
I really want to move my domains (off of Gandi since the ownership change) to porkbun. Unfortunately they don't support a tld of one of my domains (.st) and I really don't want to have my domains managed at multiple places.
Show HN: Write Your Memoir
Cheers!

Today I finished a first version of Memoir. It's a web app that asks you 15 deep life questions and turns them into a story.

You might like it if you like reflecting about your life, goals, experiences, and your past.

I've been doing (and redoing) self authoring for some time. This has monumentally helped me to overcome personal issues and painful memories. One or two months ago I was playing around with ChatGPT as a makeshift psychologist and realised how powerful it is if someone else just mirrors your answers back to you and puts them into perspective. This is where the idea was born. I got a little help from an ex-flatmate who is a psychologist, too (mainly with questions and the general process).

My general motivation is to put something nice into this world. Thinking about translating it into other languages to mainly serve family & friends.

Reactions so far:

- "It's a fast forward to mindfulness"

- "It made me rethink a lot. Brought back a few memories."

- A grown who started to cry when he read his memoir

Feel free to check it out.

There are no logins, no tracking, no bullshit.

Would love some feedback, too. I'm not a web developer by trade, so any pointer where I screwed up are highly appreciated. :-)

Show HN: I've published my first mobile puzzle game, Flipcards (iOS + Android)
Hello HN!

After a few weeks of work, and sharing the initial concept with some friends and colleagues, I was encouraged to create a mobile version of my puzzle game: Flipcards.

The concept is simple: you're given a photo and a set of moves that correspond to either a clockwise or counter-clockwise rotation of 90 degrees. You then need to find between 4 rotated photos which one corresponds to the sum of rotations before the end of the round.

There are currently 3 levels of difficulty, high scores, and a way for users to use their own photos from the gallery to play with. Finally, on iOS, in the home screen, you have a physics-based background which reacts to sensors and user interactions.

I know some of you are fond of puzzle games and I was looking for honest feedback on the game and store page:

- Is the gameplay fun?
- What could I add/remove to improve it?
- Is the tutorial explicit enough?
- Are the store page clear enough on the end product?

Links:

- iOS: https://apps.apple.com/jo/app/flipcards-photo-puzzle-game/id...
- Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=dev.halftheopp...

If you're interested about the tech stack: React Native, Expo, and Skia (even the animated background on iOS).

Happy to hear out from you!
> So maybe there could instead be a chill stock exchange which is open for just two brief 15-minute windows, one in the New York morning and another in the evening.

Typically, more shares trade in the first hour than during any other, as orders placed when the market was closed are processed.
I've also run into issues: I have 4 domains, only one of which has been migrated so far. The rest are seemingly in limbo.

Separately, I was surprised (meaning concerned) to see that they had also "conveniently" copied my credit card information over to my (automatically?) created Squarespace account. I was under the impression that sharing credit card numbers like that was a classic "must not" for account migrations between third-party vendors.

That’s how it works on macOS. Command-space (or whatever way you want to trigger Spotlight) then type Firefox and it will bring it to the front, or launch it if it’s not running. No workarounds or third-party software needed.
> the whole UFO thing is pretty ridiculous

Wait, which UFO thing are you referring to? Carter never thought it was anything extraterrestrial, he stated that he assumed it was a natural or man-made event. Are you saying it’s strange that some people believe in aliens?
As someone fortunate enough to travel around the world, I have seen enough people without shoes and stuff we could barely call clothes.
I found several photos and a short video of the type (?) of barium cloud experiment the article refers to,

https://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/images/90497/colorful-clou... ("Colorful Clouds Glow Over Virginia" (2017))

https://www.nasa.gov/solar-system/nasa-launches-two-rockets-... ("NASA Launches Two Rockets Studying Auroras" (2019))

- "The AZURE mission is designed to make measurements of the atmospheric density and temperature with instruments on the rockets and deploying visible gas tracers, trimethyl aluminum (TMA) and a barium/strontium mixture, which ionizes when exposed to sunlight. The vapors were released over the Norwegian Sea at 71 through 150 miles altitude."
Pretty cool idea. It’s effectively a day-cadence stock exchange.

This would make for a fairer market than what we have now.
