My friend is a real estate agent, they play a major part in the psychology of buyers and sellers. Selling your dead parents home that you grew up in (for example) isn't something everyone just signs up to some website and does using a credit card without a second thought.

A good real estate agent can guide people through this process while advising them on selling at the right price while avoiding the most stress often during an extremely difficult time in their life, such as going through divorce of breakup. They of course also help keep buyers interested while the seller is making up their mind about the correct offer to take.

I find your comment ignorant in so many ways. Maybe have some respect?
To be fair to Apple here, so does every other operating system. Linux system logs are filled with errors too. In general, keeping the logs of even a moderately complex application "clean" - so that the only errors logged are real errors, in some poorly defined meaning of "real" - is very hard.

For operating systems it must be straight up impossible.

> Is this tool not an additional dependency?

It is, but if you already have bash, adding another shell script isn't much of a jump. e.g. I'd feel OK about committing jb to another repo for use from a .envrc file to set up an environment, whereas committing a binary would not feel good.

> Biggest crime of the Unix world probably.

Sorry if I'm perpetuating this! :) My take is that problem is not with bash, the problem is that it's hard for more advanced tools to replace it.

> Investment incineration

Just two words to describe all the idiocy of the current wave of AI offerings.

> A huge amount of economic value is going to be created by AI. Company builders focused on delivering value to end users will be rewarded handsomely. We are living through what has the potential to be a generation-defining technology wave.

No. It's crap no matter how much money you throw at it. It will end in tears, because there is no standard, no operating system, no protocol, only a handful of APIs controlled by a couple of companies. They are not building networks, but hubs with a single point of failure--the API provider. The internet is such a world-changing force because it is built on top of TCP/IP, which allows the rest of the internet to survive even if a part of it goes down. When an AI API provider shuts down, all those bullshitters repackaging LLMs will be left holding the bag, or rather their investors will be. In a way, the coming AI bubble burst is going to be a self-fulfilling prophecy--AI will make its creators redundant.

> But we need to make sure not to believe in the delusion that has now spread from Silicon Valley to the rest of the country, and indeed the world. That delusion says that we’re all going to get rich quick, because AGI is coming tomorrow, and we all need to stockpile the only valuable resource, which is GPUs.

No, the delusion is that Gen AI is good for anything. It is not.

Soon, the $600B question is going to be, "where's the money gone?"

Even smut seems to be having a pretty slow take off, I had a go of an AI porn generator for fun recently, it was nightmare fuel. I know it's "almost right and it will get better" but not being "there" yet just isn't good enough when it comes to accurately depicting penetration.
I have no experience with c and i wonder: why Linus decided that implementing merging should go with scripting language and not in c?
On the other hand, there is no second try, to make a first impression. And the first impression lasts a while. So at least get some feedback before "just shipping". Otherwise reactions might be "doesn't work" - because what was obviously a start button for you making it, was not so obvious for someone just stumbling over it.
Infinite Jest seems excessively long and I haven't worked up the motivation to read it yet, but his short stories / essays in Consider the Lobster are excellent, including the titular story which is about a lobster festival in Maine. And looking at the comments in this thread, seems like he had some kind of fascination for fairs and other touristy things.
I will agree that it is big yikes. But I will, at least kind of, agree that you are more likely to meet more arm chair scientists than you are scientists and actual field experts online in this fashion. Though, obviously, there are actual scientists and field experts around. The issue, as always, is how to differenciate them from the not-so-obviously fake ones as a layman.

But yes. Still big yikes.
Thanks for sharing. That was a great read
Explorer can’t even sort folders by size…
I wholeheartedly agree with this, when I started working on Kviklet we were a team of 3 and one of us was a lot more perfectionist than the others. It took a lot of convincing to even put our (tbf shitty) first website version up. Much more to release our repo.
We lost that "co-founder" early on, but man I'm glad we released early and tried to sell.

It didn't work and we found no buyers but imagine we still were working on a product without knowing if anyone would ever want to pay for it, keeping our hopes up in the dark.

By now we went with the backup plan and open sourced and have a few cool users. Could maybe even say it's a small community: https://github.com/kviklet/kviklet

It's not the startup success story that I hoped for a year ago. But it's a lot better than still hoping for it and not being a bit more grounded.
Also open-source doesn't mean I can never sell support or a premium version and still make a few bucks right? For now it's just a fun side project though.
I tried to address this at the end of the post: If what you are implementing is mostly _sequential_ IO operations, then this model becomes a bit painful.

That isn't always the case though. In more packet-oriented usecases (QUIC, WebRTC & IP), doing the actual IO bit is easy: send & receive individual packets / datagrams.

There isn't really much the compiler can generate for you because you don't end up with many `.await` points. At the same time, the state management across all these futures becomes spaghetti code because many of these aspects should run concurrently and thus need to be in their own future / task.
I started mine in 2017, after I left the start up i co-founded. 2 months later, the app was. I still haven't posted a show hn.

In fact, after 2 years, someone approached me saying he is building the exact same product, but in Germany. We had several zoom calls. He shipped it, failed and iterated. I'm just watching him and hoping someday I get some time to actually do something with mine.
> so I started getting suspicious if someone actually shared the video of my app with these people because they were solving literally the same problem

I once met a guy who had a good idea about an app, something that became fairly mainstream two years later. He asked me to code the app for free and we'd share revenues. When asked what his contribution would be, he offered to "run" the company and otherwise his 50% was "having the idea". I thanked him and told him that he has a head-start of 6 months, if his app hasn't hit the market by then, I'd write the thing myself.
Highpoint has some decent-ish toaster-style drive docks. I have an a couple of the older model with dual drives dual usb-a ports - 5422A - but the Highpoint RocketStor 3112D seems available for $70 with a single 10Gbit usb-c port and dual drives.

There is one deeply troubling flaw to them though, they don't turn back on of the power goes out, until you physically hit the button again. I think this is alas all to common for many of these enclosures!
Yep. The only things about async that bothers me is the need to write ".await" everywhere. I wish there'd be a way to inverse this, and actually just run ".await" by default, while having a special construct not to.
Depends on your target audience.

I have a side project that's just an internal tool for my music visualizer/ lyric video generator.

It has no functional sign up for new users and is very difficult to use. It's "shipped" as in I use it for my projects.

Another is a simple web app a friend requested. He uses it occasionally. I'm sure y'all on HN could probably find half a dozen issues with it. But it's what my friend wanted and I learned a lot.

The moral of the story is use Flutter from the start, don't worry about shipping apps( do you really want to struggle with the various app stores for what's just a web app anyway), and ship early and often.
Whilst I appreciate being able to scan, having no tailback at all means having to scan. That's less accessible.

Why not ship now? Well not now in 2024, but when this article was written?

Most apps and services you use were not first to market.
You totally nailed it. The actual syntax / API of constraint solvers are so simple they can be learned in no time at all. What actually takes time and expertise is modelling problems in this fashion and there are almost 0 real world (in size and complexity) examples out there for others to reference.

I have about 5 years of experience in MiniZinc solving scheduling problems but sadly all that code is locked behind closed doors never to be open sourced. I would love put together some fully worked constraint programming examples complete with containerisation / visualisation/ modeling etc but the barrier to doing so is finding problems that are actually worth solving and have open source data to work on.
EVs at low speeds need to produce external sounds to warn pedestrians.
“O” as in “Open”. It’s the same shortcut in every app.
That depends entirely on seating capicity and layout and specific numbers.

Also whether male across aisle, male in seat ahead or behind is considered an issue. It's a constraint problem similar to paying extra to not be near children.
I found it put too much pressure on my face (even with the dual loop band) and not useful enough to justify the discomfort. I haven't used it since February, but I keep telling myself I'll eventually take it out and try it again if they come up with a compelling use case for it.
I think it is not so much surprising that large language models are particularly good at languages, including programming languages.

> Pull Request-like Review/Approval flow for database queries

Terrible description IMO. a query should not need approval. Should use mutation or edit or update or modification. Even if query is technically correct it just sounds wrong and confusing.
> Even though they were working on it for the past few years it's still slow, buggy, and super unpolished, it doesn't matter, because they shipped.

> Their mobile app is terrible and it needs 10 seconds to sync. It doesn't matter, they shipped. And I'm looking forward to every single update they release.

Sigh. I agree, and I can empathize, but as a user I am so sick and tired of half-finished crap being shoved out the door just to beat the competition to the starting line. Every day the software we use becomes slower, more bloated, and less stable, and part of it is exactly this attitude of throwing crap at the wall and hoping it sticks. And the sad part is, since everyone is doing it, you can't really not do it, otherwise--as the author discovered--you get left in the dust.
Another "friendly syntax, multi-solver" approach is MiniZinc.org.
Haha thank you!

Yes there are indeed similarities to rust-libp2p! Over there, things are more interleaved though because the actual streams and connections are still within `Future`-like constructs and not strictly split like in the sans-IO case here.
We used to use diodes on many lines to get power from several at once to power small things. RS-232 drivers like the MC1488 had no problem providing enough power for all sorts of things, like microcontrollers and wifi bridges.
Show HN: Rain screen – a cute app to make your Mac rain
A decent human being wouldn't be promoting a campaign of harassment over such a trivial issue.
Yep. I'm also not a statistician, but linear regression that the blogger is using predicts the mean for each state, and this is being conflated with trying to predict p(color | state). The goodness of fit here would be better modeled cross entropy and not a standard deviation.
Not sure if it’s smart to do that if you aren’t entirely sure about what mental state a person could be in.

Edit: okay I don’t know why I’m getting downvoted for this but if you think you can just tell someone you’re going to steal their awesome idea in 6 months you better hope their not the type of “crazy” entrepreneur who will cause problems for you or in extreme cases even end up shooting you in the back of the head.
That's a valid point. They certainly need more persuasion than machines.
As other commenters have pointed out in one way or another, the problem seems to actually be that this simplistic model of voter choice can't capture all the structure of the real world that humans can quickly infer from the setup. Things like: state elections have millions of voters, 55/45 is actually a decisive, not a narrow win etc.

In a generic setup, imagine you have a binary classifier that outputs probabilities in the .45-.55 range - likely it won't be a really strong classifier. You would ideally like polarized predictions, not values around .5.

Come to think of it, could this be an issue of non-ergodicity too ( hope I'm using the term right)? i.e. state level prior is not that informative wrt individual vote?
> Even the philanthropic org Chan-Zuckerberg institute current rocks 1000 H100s, probably none used for inference.

What do they use them for?
Yes, and removing further barriers and misregulations is one way to get there.

Of course, EU membership ought to help a lot: Greeks at least have the legal right to just rock up in the Netherlands and look for a job there.

I feel this deep in my bones. I worked on <some project> a long while back because I wanted to scratch an itch, and I thought that some of the problems I was seeing, hey, maybe someone else was having them too. So I start kinda-sorta-half-heartedly exploring the idea, writing some pilot code, then I discovered hacker news. And oh boy did people have things to say about the general problem, it's impossible to solve, no one should waste their time, we can just <do the drop box thing and wire up ninety five things and make it shamble along>, definitely no need to waste time trying to implement something new from scratch.

Then I dropped it, because, hey, the glitterati of hacker news and all of the others must be right, huh? I let it wither, while working on other things, working for other people, making them wealthier, while all in the back of my mind I keep thinking: "maybe I should keep working on it."

Services doing the same exact thing started popping up. They get traction. Users are mostly happy with what they were doing, but they didn't have half of the features that I had already implemented in the code that hadn't seen any use outside of my testing environment. Some take off so well they have a now-publicly traded company doing the same thing. Ten years after I started my little project.

Fuck.

Lesson learned. The naivete of youth is a harsh teacher. Work on it. Put more effort into it. Ship it. Go with your gut--you probably have a better sense than you think you do of what will work and what won't. Ignore the hivemind. Don't leave room for the regret you will inevitably feel when you're scooped.
Anybody know what the adblocking is like?
> It was only when chancing on a good doctor that I realised how bad my old doctor was

How did you determine the new doctor is "good"?
You say it's confusing, but it's exactly what I expected it to be based on the description
My statisitcs are a little rusty, so I might be off here. Someone correct me if I have this wrong. R^2 = 1 would be every voter in one state votes blue and every voter in the other votes red. R^2 = 0 would mean both states are exactly even between red and blue. The states are a lot closer to that. Again, my statistics are rusty so I'm no sure if this next part is valid, but sqaure root of .01 is .1, which doesn't seem like such a bad representation of the situation.
There's massive caveat with all of these "and then the story ends because we didn't just ship it :(" stories: sometimes the value of the "app" you're working on is in the technical details that cannot really be "hastened" and you can't "just ship it".

Also, and this is something a lot of the managerial class people don't want to hear:

Your job as a sw engineer/architect is to resist the "just ship it" pressure from the management as much as possible. So unless you own what you're coding and you really need it out of the door for your own benefit, if more time makes your work more professional, then take more time. Anyone telling you otherwise is a 100% hack. You are not an automaton that takes in JIRA tickets and spits out hacky code as soon as possible. Or at least you shouldn't be. Not to mention that not taking time (doing things properly) is incredibly taxing on your psyche and you WILL burn out. There are only so much garbage tasks you can take.

It's worth repeating: Unless you have a stake in the company, it is NOT your job to make sure the company is the most profitable it can be. Your job is to create great software. What's great software? The kind you'd be willing to put on your resume without feeling bad. This is the thing that will ultimately make you feel good about the work you're doing. Hitting that arbitrary deadline for a 1425474th time may feel like a relief but it's short term and a form of negative motivation - and in the workplace, those NEVER work over a long period of time. So RESIST that pressure from the top and do your work properly. If they fire you, then who cares, the only way up these days is job hopping anyways.
I mean handling sales + marketing + accounting and everything else required to run a company is worth 50% (maybe more). But of course while you were probably competent enough to "code it up", odds are he wasn't competent to "run the company".
> Kowloon seems to exist outside/before these restrictions, and might therefore feel more "free" in some way.

I doubt most of the people who lived there felt that way. There were rules enforced by the powerful people living there, it just wasn’t enforced formally via laws. Instead, strongmen imposed their own rules.

But agreed, between the unions with political pull and "AI safety" grifters I suspect there could be some level of regulatory risk, particularly for the megacorps in California. I doubt it will be some national thing in the US absent a major political upheaval.

> it is a feature which allows, for example, to work simultaneously on several releases, patches, hot fixes, etc. Once better alternative emerges we'll jump the git ship as we did before when we jumped onto the git ship.

What are you talking about here? I'm not talking about eliminating branching, but the fact that merging a branch is usually just a fake single commit that hides away the complexity and decisions of the branch. see [0] into how you can leverage branches and the log for a sane commit history.

Given the article, git won because it was foss, torvalds and speed, if you have proof of a good amount of people saying "I hate the division of data and repository!" then its a believable claim, or maybe you're confusing the data/repo division with cvs? git also didn't have to fight much, the only contender was hg

> Nobody else has 4k 3D HDR with HFR

Sadly that content basically doesn't exist outside of computer games.

I got myself a 240 Hz OLED HDR monitor and I wanted to see Gemini Man in 120 fps, but it turns out that this is unobtainable by the public. The only other HFR movie I'm aware of is the Hobbit series, but they're only 48 fps.

It's a bit weird to me that I have an ordinary consumer camera that can capture 120 fps or 8K at 60 fps, but that content fidelity exists only in YouTube or Vimeo.
