I'm not interested in developing a product that's too slow to grow. And if it is, I guess there is no point in keeping the code closed. We are trying big moves and changes. Some of them will work. Will see. At least my integration partners really want my codebase open source :-)
Yes it does support non-keyboard usage through the stylus and touch, I tested on a Wacom tablet and a Surface Pro during development - I recommend downloading the demo first to be sure that it fits your requirements.
Could be shortened to, "You are the product." There's no commodity quite as valuable as human time and attention.
i completely agree, having seen founders over and over again delude themselves into belief that a marketing push will get their product to some escape velocity
We all have inner voices you just have to listen hard enough.

That voice always lingering in the background that always puts you down when you think things are so going well.

I wonder who that voice belongs to?

Its not your own!

Have you ever found yourself in a difficult/dangerous situation unsure what to do?

Suddenly you here "Fuck it" in your mind

> One of the main reasons I feel so strongly about topics like this is that I think we're sleepwalking into authoritarianism, if we haven't already arrived. So take your comment - that the government surveilling places where there is no expectation of privacy is okay. And now think about the countries that have done precisely this - secret police spying on people in public, building up profiles on people, informants making sure nobody's getting up to anything the government might be concerned about, and so on. These are terrible places in history, literally every last one of them. Doesn't it feel to you that we're on the path to repeating this?

I get the concern about authoritarianism, and I share it. Realistically though, intelligence services have been doing exactly that kind of activity since before networks or computers existed. It's the nature of intelligence work that without the proper checks and balances, it can be abused by an authoritarian regime. It's also a reality that the advent of networks and computers has made it far easier to exfiltrate information much more quickly and much more broadly.

> I somehow get the impression you're around my age. If I'm correct there then imagine taking yourself back to the early 2000s or maybe even earlier, and describing to your youthful self what America would be like in 20 years.

I like the idea that I was youthful in the early 2000's. ;-) I guess I wasn't middle aged then, so that counts as youthful, right?

Truth be told, in the early 2000's I was already aware that intelligence services were able to listen in on phone calls, surveil any newsgroups/mailing lists/etc. That was around the time when Skipjack (which absolutely strikes me as authoritarian creep) was having nails put in its coffin. Police could do wire taps on this stuff with a search warrant. This was also an era when intelligence services were deliberately crippling cryptographic protocols so they could compromise them as needed. The "inch-by-inch" change has been the volume of data that is being produced and the volume of data that is being gathered by intelligence services.

The "creep" that I'm worried about is less on the capability side and much more on the legal & political side. The PATRIOT Act is a pretty good example of broad, sweeping powers that we've given to the state, with far fewer restrictions, that is unlike what it has traditionally had. I also worry about the broad erosion of our institutions. That's the kind of "inch by inch" I'm concerned about.
Thank you for the encouraging comment!
now feed that model the reports written in major media on the same stories; see how often the coverage is significantly different in actual content, not just tone, from the initial statements.
Instead of embedding, just add a "Feedback" link somewhere that goes to a different page, like Google Forms or Airtable. Or you can put a little feedback icon in the corner that opens a small popup to ask for quick feedback (or be dismissed).

There's also a bunch of SAAS stuff in this space, like UserVoice or Hotjar or Aha.

I think it's important to distinguish the frontend from the back here. The form shouldn't be intrusive, but that need not be related to the deliverability issue. Whatever service you choose, there's usually a way to hook up the form to the backend reliably (via API and real-time confirmations).

If you really want to DIY this, you can probably put the responses into a cloud serverless KV store for very cheap or free, instead of having an always-on server. But that doesn't seem any better than just using Google Forms or Airtable to collect those responses.
Ars Poetica (Horace)
Horace approaches poetry from a practical standpoint—as a craft, or ars—rather than the theoretical approach of his predecessors, philosophers Aristotle and Plato. He also holds the poet in high regard, as opposed, for instance, to Plato, who distrusts mimesis and who has philosopher Socrates say in Book 10 of the Republic that he would banish poets from the ideal state.
> It's trivially easy to say that if every SQL statement took 1ms to execute

Good thing I don't say that! What I do say is that the number of SQL calls will tend to scale with the volume of data retrieved. Limit the volume of data the user even is allowed to request and you'll naturally limit the extent of the N+1 problem.
Given the small amounts of compute and memory you get on each node (it’s certainly no Adapteva Epiphany or even Cell), it seems to me like it’s more of a replacement for a (low-speed) FPGA than a CPU or even a micro.

And that’s not a bad pitch! Modern silicon certainly doesn’t like to be bent into a (single-layer) FPGA shape—the result is comparatively slow, expensive, and power-hungry—but accomodates specialized functional blocks very well, so a matrix of baby processors with accompanying memory sounds genuinely like a good idea for an FPGA-like application.

Unfortunately, the GA144 is the only game in town here, and at $500 per dev kit they sure aren’t interested in hobbyists. So I’m left to admire it from a distance. (And $20 per chip is not a bad price considering the competition—as I said, FPGAs are expensive—but it still falls into the expensive-chip bucket. Not a lot of places are going to build a design around a unique expensive chip from an obscure source.)
I don't think this follows unless you think there is something particularly special about sexual relations per se. I'm monogamous but I don't see why people should avoid casual sex.
Low risk but very high consequences.

Are you willing to bet your primary method of paying your bills and funding your entire existence that your company isn’t using monitoring software and that you’ll never accidentally pull up a NSFW scene on Netflix?

To me, a $329 iPad is a pretty cheap price to pay to never have to worry about that.
I am 36, graduated at 24 and about 2 times per year I have a dream that I realize I had forgotten I enrolled in a class and the final is today. I sit down and have no idea what these questions are and have no time to prepare.

This scenario never happened and yet the dream is not only reoccurring in myself, but apparently it is very widespread across society.

Things like this make me wonder if the Mandela effect truly is just mass misremembering where common themes are 'compacted' in similar ways across wide ranges of people this presenting as incorrect memories experienced broadly in society. Such odd phenomenon
JSON winning over XML is like saying CSV won over MySQL. They aren't equivalent.

Much like CSV, JSON isn't particularly standardised and different parsers and writers will do different things in some situations. Usually it doesn't matter, but when it does you're probably in for a lot of pain.

If you handle structured data and the structures might change over time, JSON isn't a good fit. Maybe you'll opt for JSON Schema, maybe that'll work for your use case, but with XML you can be quite sure it'll be reliable and well understood by generations of developers.

The tooling is generally very good, commonly you can just point your programming language to the XSD and suddenly you have statically typed classes to program against. Perhaps you'd like to store the data in a RDBMS? You can probably generate the DB schema from the XSD. If you want you can just throw JSON into MongoDB instead, but there will be very important tradeoffs. Same goes for UI, you can write some XSLT based on the XML schema and suddenly you get web views directly from API responses. Or you could use those classes you generated and have your GUI code consume such objects.

None of this is as easy with JSON as it is with XML, similar to how many things aren't as easy with CSV as with a RDBMS.
As mentioned in the article, many older ships are literally worthless - the cost of cutting them up for scrap matches the value of the scrap metal.
I had some similar dream where something overdue in high-school would invalidate passing the grade and, in turn, like a domino effect would invalidate all my education afterwards. Woke up sweating.
The entire point of graphql servers is that they're basically ORMs (or use an underlying ORM) that turn complex nesting into a single query's worth of joins. It won't beat hand-crafted sql from an expert, but if that's your preferred approach, debates on the relative merits of different query frameworks are all academic to you anyway.
It is quite literally a slippery slope argument. You've implied that by legalising access to euthanasia (top of the slope), you are creating a scenario where eventually (slippery) the poor and homeless will be euthanised (bottom of the slope). Even just now you sent a link that supposedly supports this position, but let's check out what it says.

>Research Co. found that 73 per cent of poll respondents favoured the current regime, and only 16 per cent opposed it.

>If a Canadian’s only affliction was “poverty,” 27 per cent said they would be fine with legalizing that person’s access to MAID. Another 28 per cent pegged “homelessness” as an appropriate bar to qualify for MAID.

>And 20 per cent of respondents were fine with MAID being handed out to anybody for any reason.

Interesting how right wing politicians only care about poor and homeless people in situations like these. Anyways,

> During the public meeting, residents questioned what will happen to the data centers when the nuclear power plant is eventually decommissioned. One reactor is set to be decommissioned in 2042, while the other is slated to be shut down in 2044. However, their licenses could be extended.

Of course, nobody is thinking that far ahead. If we cared about the future, we wouldn't be building energy-draining data centers anywhere.

The grid in Pennsylvania is mostly gas and coal. If we actually wanted to eliminate emissions and electrify everything, then we would take a triage approach to building any new infrastructure.
Love this. It would really benefit from a back/forward button though!
I don't know about construction, but as a farmer it's pretty natural to look at what your neighbours are doing and if they adopt a new technology in their operation you're at least going to give some thought to doing the same.

But I think it comes with a lot more reluctance and skepticism. You are not likely to jump in head over heels, and even when you do give it a try I expect most farmers will do so with the attitude of "if it doesn't work at least I can always go back to the old way".

The "OMG this is amazing and will solve all of my life's problems" attitude I see in tech certainly isn't there in my experience.

I hear so many negative things about Chinese fishing fleets. When I was in Africa, I was shown how the chinese ships would be stuck in drydock because they needed repairs or fuel and no locals would sell to them.

But the government is cozy so they are allowed to continue. In some cities, the land is literally sold to the Chinese government in exchange for funds to pad the coffers, or nominal "services" like removing piles of dirt on the land from mining activities.

It's mad neo-colonialism. Instead of armies, you just buy leaders.

My gut feeling first impression is that your integration partners probably want your code open source so that you give away all the value that you’ve worked to create.

They are looking at their best interests, not yours.

I’m thinking that you’re not looking at how to change the product to solve more customer pain and therefore grow, you’re just interested in dumping your work into open source, hoping it brings more attention to your company like a marketing campaign, and then you want to build a new fad product (AI, LLMs) in the hope that it will be your high risk high reward high growth moonshot.

Just be careful because LLMs aren’t well-suited to every single use case just like Blockchain and Big Data (which is why I brought up those fad technologies that used to make VCs salivate).
I don't have a twitter account and generally avoid links to it unless I really care what apparently is on there. Is it normal that people will post an image of text of what they want to say vs just typing it directly into twitter?
A lot of graphql implementation end up moving the n+1 problem to the query resolver.
Looks really great. I can't tell from the readme, but can this produce its own feed which is the aggregation of the other feeds? That is the feature I always want and don't see too much with apps like this.
It's not just information either, it's cost sharing with no incentive to keep costs down.

If you have to split a dinner bill with a million people no matter if or what you order, people will gravitate to the surf and turff. It's the simple answer to the prisoner's dilemma when you have a million players.

It's any population center, city and metro area. They all have police and there's no shortage of cops who believe John Walsh's false stranger-danger narratives.
Yeah, and the tweet isn't being honest. Issuing somebody an ultimatum that you know they'll refuse is just a different way to get rid of someone.

A single peice of land may or may not appreciate. but a diversified portfoilio of land will always appreciate if the last 10,000 years has anything to say about it.

The rockefellers and other "Old Money Family's" have the three rules to building multi-generational wealth. Land, Art and Gold.

Even for detroit, land prices have only increased since the 80's[0] and over long time horizons, i'm sure will be back in line with other "Single peice land bets".

Coincidentally, a few days ago my wife was giving talks to students in NYC and mentioned how developed the girls seemed--much more than when she was in high school.
Your speculation is what is wrong with forums. It's misinformation that will be re-quoted time and time again.
No I am not. Means of production being under social ownership instead of privately owned is a core characteristic of socialism but it does allow limited private ownership (some property, perhaps some small businesses but certainly not large industrial capacity). Denmark's industry is privately owned - if Denmark were a socialist country, that would not be possible or at odds with Denmark being socialist.
Why would you struggle to believe something that is accounted for in tax records and other city records?

The median household income in NYC is about $70k almost no one relative to the population has a $2.5mm net worth. There are only 350,000 people in NYC with a net worth of more than 1mm.[1] Anecdote is clouding your understanding here, the idea that there are tons of empty units in NYC is just another luxury belief, it stands up to 0 scrutiny.

This just means that there are exceptions for twitter.com that haven't been switched to x.com. I use uBlock Origin with all scripts and third party resources blocked by default and got this page when they switched to x.com, but it works once you unblock the same stuff on x.com that was unblocked on twitter.com.

The exception is that some accounts still require login to read. I'm not sure why but I'm guessing that it might be a per account setting that won't be set by accounts that haven't logged in for a long time (I don't have an acount to check). Actually, worble and ploum's comments below would explain what I see, I usually don't try to check the same content twice (or anything all that often) so I wouldn't notice if it sometimes works and sometimes doesn't.

"Secret reason" = Paul knows it looks bad for him to fire the guy. So he comes up with justifications why it's not really firing. Maybe he even believes them.
There's a common pattern in population dynamics that I've observed, which probably has a formal name: A given system with (to simplify) two types of behavior: good and bad will tolerate and self correct up to certain percentage of bad actors (call this the jerk threshold, JT) after which all participants switch to the bad behavior. Examples are line formation for a service, cutting people off in traffic, stealing from common areas, hoarding office supplies, etc.

Anecdata: When I travel back to the country I've grown up I resort back to being a jerk in traffic and cutting in lines because you have to.

I've always wondered what the JT for different situations is, before the system breaks down, e.g. what percentage of people in a line have to cut in before everybody abandons the concept of forming the line.

Ask HN: How do I clean the insides of a PC?
Even with modern dust filters, fans suck in fine dust that is spread all over the inside of a PC. If you also have pets or are in a dusty environment, you have to get the stuff out of the case at some point. After reading numerous websites, forums, and even consulting local PC services, I'm still unsure about the best way to clean a (modern) desktop computer.

Vacuuming seems to be discouraged by most sources. It's said that the SMD adhesive can age and cause components to be sucked away, and that vacuum cleaners can generate static electricity, which is harmful to electronic components.

A more modern method is using compressed air, either from an electronic compressor with a moisture filter or from a can. However, cans often lack moisture filters, which means you could potentially blow moisture onto your electronics. But wouldn't you blow away the badly glued SMD parts?

Using a soft brush, such as a paintbrush, is also recommended. But some sources caution that the bristles can become charged with static electricity. Some forum users suggest grounding the brush to prevent this.

For heavy dirt, isopropyl alcohol (90% or higher) with cotton swabs is recommended. Of course, stay away from microfiber cloth on the inside, otherwise the static electricity will strike again.

And then there are the more extreme methods, like immersing the computer in oil or using special cleaning sprays designed for servers in data centers.

Heck... How do YOU clean the insides of your PC?
Not a knock on Feynman, but he did re-marry in '52, which ended in divorce a few years later and then married a third time in '60, and stayed married until his death.
Sometimes I truly feel like I'm living in a parallel world completely separate from contemporary media. Where I'm at, kids play outside constantly and everything is very rural and low tech. Many kids spend their free time at the voluntary fire force - basically forcing them to be out and about in the village. It's this way in almost every community all over my country.

Almost no-one I know here needs glasses and if they do, they're far-sighted.
While yes modern weapons have higher yield, the point still generally holds the same. If you are in a heavy concrete structure, you actually have pretty decent odds. Now what access people have to that depends on where they live.

From my experience on the east coast, a lot of the office buildings, etc in the DMV are mid 20th century brutalist concrete structures. So like even if you were in DC proper, your odds are surprisingly good as long as you are inside a building or in a metro station.

My point wasn't so much that it's easy to survive. It's very much not. However it's not the guaranteed death a lot of people assume. Rather to quote, it's an earthquake, a tornado, and a wildfire all in one (plus radiation). If you are inside you lose the risk of radiation from the blast so now you just have to contend with the threat of 3 natural disasters at once. So if where you work is well suited for safety from a fire, from a tornado, and from an earthquake, you'll probably be in a reasonably safe space.
