You are not an UHNW individual/institutional investor, so no "fund managers" of any note are going to waste their time on this wager.

"Beating an index" is really easy. Up to $10MM you can choose most any financial instrument class in the U.S markets and have a good probability of finding alpha for a long time (that would beat the S&P500 18.40% YTD). Many proprietary trading firms, or market makers, or quantitative trading shops do this regularly. Discretionary and systematic funds? Usually not. If their processes worked consistently, they would have no need to take outside capital and deal with relationship management. They could simply use more leverage (not exactly, but simplified for the general reader).

This is also ignoring the fact there are no details in TFA about actual portfolio compositions or returns -- i.e. this is a PR piece.

If your NW is under <$100MM, you should be focusing on hyper-growth strategies -- and not mentally limiting yourself on what is basically financial propaganda.
Does Conscription Boost Security?
I’m not sure why you’re being downvoted. The surpreme court moved to make abortion a states-rights issue. This is the correct and most moderate move for any politician or political body to make on the most polarizing and most divisive issue. Perhaps the only thing better would’ve been to make it a county’s-rights issue but that’s now up to the states.

Anyone that wants an abortion can just fly to a liberal state for one as long as at least 1 liberal state still exists. Furthermore, the court made it so states cannot ban the abortion pill, which can be received by mail.

The surpreme court is the only section of government designed to minimize or remove bias by letting its supreme judges for life. This means the judges get to make decisions based on what they think is right decision rather than some policial leaning decision. By design, they don’t need to worry anymore about whether they need to appeal to any policial campaign funding party for a reelection bid. It successfully takes money out of politics.

I’m firmly on the side of pro-choice and I’m not one to talk positively about government bodies but the Supreme Court is functioning extremely well. It’s doing a commendable job with so many intricate & difficult cases.
This is heavy handed, but I agree. An immediate effect is confounded search results. Perhaps I'm biased as I'm writing biology software today.
> How do you construct pressuring the VP to make a procedural step that it is within his discretion to make as an attempted coup?

Questions like this are the rational basis for Democrats to claim that Trump, and more broadly, Republicans, represent an existential threat to democracy.
I'd rather have tabs and forward back and history and bookmarks and extensions. Losing the browser & switching to an app seems like a colossal downgrade, like losing everything that's good. I do not understand PWAs.
Meta says Trump and Biden are subject to the same rules as regular users
This is a law signed by California governor Gavin Newsom, so it only affects cities and counties in California — not all cities and counties in the US (which would be great).
Very cool, I love that! I had a similar idea and it’s great to see that it’s worth exploring
The idea that modern add-HD riddled and pay to win shovelware gets defeated by old classics is deeply entertaining to me. Just one hacker helping.. and the audience would drive the crapware out of town on a rail. Almost like good things of the past in an eternal medium will always outcompete mediocre things of the present.
Alas, the whole "all our customers data breached" thing will eat up this savings.
What about .ca.us? How do they choose between .us and .gov?
Note that secure tree hashing requires a distinguisher between the leaves and the parents (to avoid collisions) and ideally another distinguisher between the root and everything else (to avoid extensions). Surprisingly few bespoke tree hashes in the wild get this right.
Has any sitting president before Trump tried to abuse this loophole to stay in power? You're acting like this is all regular business, like it's just what presidents do. It doesn't matter whether the stacked courts could have interpreted the rules to make this loophole legal. Trump attempted to overturn an election and keep power. This is not a "both sides" issue, this is one side not holding their leaders accountable and attempting to end democracy to stay in power.

But feel free to prove me wrong - you could for example show me concrete steps taken by Obama to keep the presidency for the Democrats in 2016, maybe some fake electors he sent to the counting. I don't think such examples exist, but I might be wrong.

Nice article; I do this often with small server-side rendered Deno projects. I haven't felt the need to upgrade to a "proper" templating library yet.

I noticed the article doesn't mention escaping HTML, which you probably should do if you're expecting user input. Fortunately, such a utility is included in Deno's standard library: https://jsr.io/@std/html/doc/~/escape

Similarly, for XSS, the `xss` package on npm works great for Deno.
No mention of ITAR issues? In the comments?
The best approximation I’ve found is S&P has this Top 10 index[1]. Over the last 10 years it has performed 18% annually vs 11% for the overall S&P 500, but that’s obviously been a historic bull run in large cap growth stocks. I can’t find data going back to 2000 to see how that strategy would have played out, but curious if someone else finds it or crunches the numbers.

The US didn’t “invent” the internet.

It did play a pivotal role in its development, but CERN also was there at the beginning!

The US arguably just deployed it widely first.
Using this pattern has been a gift. It is really freeing to write templates without a framework and worrying about SSR.

Years back I dove completely in on Svelte and even wrote my own SSG that helped kick off the Islands/partial hydration crazy... Elder.js. It was fun, but burnt me out of open source.

Today, I only pull for a template language and deal with SSR/Hydration for pages that really need it.

I want JS projects that don't break 6 months after the last build. The way you get that is by not adding more dependencies and not chasing the latest craze.
So the video creator has to obtain consent forms from all the people in their video? How is Google going to verify consent forms from poeple who's face isn't in their database? What about voice? This line of reasoning is turning distopian quite fast.
You are confusing the internet, which became operational in 1969, with the web, introduced in 1990.

The US Government (specifically DARPA) started funding research into packet-switched networks in 1960, and funding by the USG for the internet continued uninterrupted until it was clear that the internet no longer needed outside funding in 1992 or 1993. Internet email dates back to 1972. Multiplayer online games began on the internet in 1979 (but they were text-only). Richard Stallman started using the internet to distribute free software in 1984.

Just to defend myself from the pedants out there: it was not called the internet till 1983. Before then the name alternated between ARPAnet and DARPAnet, but the userbase remained mostly the same across the transition to the name "Internet", and email, multiplayer games and other services (FTP, telnet) continued with only minor interruptions.
I follow, essentially you're viewing it like a loan + interest + a minor stake in the venture. If the venture fails, you still expect to repaid loan + interest and your stake in the venture is worth $0.

Unfortunately no one will agree to this as long as everyone else is willing to invest _and_ shoulder the risk
I like them better then in person meetings.
This is true. Of course, when you have many indices, with random returns, some of them will perform well, but past performance doesn't guarantee future results.

Since my master's studies, I have been researching this topic. I highly recommend Professor Thor Magnusson's book, "Sonic Writing" (https://www.bloomsbury.com/uk/sonic-writing-9781501313868/), as well as all of his research.

For example, in this article, he discusses algorithms as "Algorithms as Scores" (https://cris.brighton.ac.uk/ws/portalfiles/portal/268697/Mag...).

These concepts have profoundly influenced my creation of Glicol (https://glicol.org/).

I can confirm first hand experience states will be onboarded (since 2021 [1]). I would strongly encourage you to advocate within your state for them to partner with Login.gov for government service delivery identity services. There is no reason states should be relying on Okta, Auth0, or ID.me when Login.gov is available and they are offering these partnership opportunities.

Login.gov could also be made available to private businesses, but requires Congressional action to do so (allowing OMB to publish a circular or a memo that would allow GSA to sell Login.gov services to business customers) [2].

The idea is to create a vectorized rating system that allows career coaches, recruiters, and job-seekers to rate and review each other on a platform that also allows them to directly connect with each other (so that they don't have to wait for the invite-accept mechanism of LinkedIn).

The vectorized rating system allows for a better AI-assisted match between users, so that you don't end up wasting your time making unfruitful connections.
And Canada ;)
Yeah that part was mostly because people tend to think in terms of "pull request, therefore web" or "email, therefore messing around with weird configs and stuff". Tell someone that they can use Discord instead of email and they're probably like "you can do that?!".

It's the same as when people say "GitHub" when they mean "Git"; or when they ask for your GitHub[1] to read some code. It's understood what they're trying to say, but thinking that "GitHub" is the same as "Git" causes unnecessary bias in thoughts.

Using a different ecosystem as example, you can see this happening with ActivityPub implementations being biased towards Twitter-like usage thanks to Mastodon (where here ActivityPub would be equivalent to Git, and Mastodon equivalent to GitHub).

But thankfully there's people who know they shouldn't be conflated, and are slowly bringing us collaboration between Git repositories through ActivityPub, starting with a web implementation (because as you say it has the lower barrier to entry). This should open more doors to more creative "bridges" that integrate with this ActivityPub flow.

A more clear bias you see everywhere is that Git forges tend to just copy GitHub's flat URL structure of "username/reponame". It's rare to find something that does not have a flat structure like that (e.g. "username/hackernews/repo-for-that-thread") (yes I'm keeping "username" in the URL on purpose but it doesn't need to be there). Don't get me wrong, I like to organize things relatively flat most of the time, but I really appreciate a nested structure when I mirror thirdparty repositories (e.g. "example.com/mirrors/github.com/username/reponame").

So yeah, I like that from time to time we're getting projects like this that try to improve git collaboration and start from a point of view different than mimicking GitHub on everything.

[1]: I've noticed when people ask for repos to read code they tend to ask for a GitHub link, but it's understood that a link to some Codeberg/Gitea/cgit/stagit instance also works.
Show HN: An ad free temporary mail service
Made this privacy conscious temporary mail extension as a hobby a few years ago as I found a cool domain.

I've now revamped the UI, added more domains and created an extension that shows your inbox in your browser (it only asks for permission to read from TemporaryMail.com and not all sites like the other extensions), it's also free from ads (paying the service out of pocket and perhaps adding an upgrade feature later on).

What makes this site a bit more unique is that I wrote the email parser from scratch following the RFC (took me 2 months and tons of testing) so it should display all incoming emails exactly as they are displayed in your favorite email client.

The site itself: https://TemporaryMail.com

Firefox Extension: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/temporary-ema...

Chrome Extension: https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/temporarymailcom-a-...

Edge Extension: https://microsoftedge.microsoft.com/addons/detail/temporarym...

Opera Extension: https://addons.opera.com/en/extensions/details/temporarymail...

Please give me your worst and criticize it to oblivion as I want to improve it. Also thinking about adding an API for it so let me know your thoughts on that too.

PS

I launched this back at the end of December 2020 and posted here on HN and it didn't get much traction.
What’s wild to me is that Donald Hoffman is also proposing a similar foundation for his metaphysical theory of consciousness, ie that it is a fundamental property and that it exists outside of spacetime and leads via a markov chain of conscious agents (in a
Network as described above)

Ie everything that exists may be the result of some kind of Uber Network existing outside of space and time

It’s a wild theory but the fact that these networks keep popping up and recurring at level upon level when agency and intelligence is needed is crazy

Well, we’re talking about emulation here, not a bytecode interpreter for a high level dynamically typed language. CPython is fairly slow, it’s written in C in a fairly understandable way, effectively using a large switch statement. There’s like three jumps or so per executed bytecode, it probably uses some jump table.

„All the tricks“ for an interpreter would mean 1 jump per interpreted instruction, or perhaps 0.5 for some of them. It would probably mean no explicit jump tables. It would probably mean the interpreter is set up pipelined like a real cpu - loading instructions on parallel with executing previous instructions. You can get perhaps 5-15% of native speed using for an interpreter all the tricks. QEMU can maybe get 20-50% (not sure these days actually, I haven’t followed improvements for a while). Rosetta can get close to 100%, using a JIT but also hardware that is specifically designed to aid emulation (memory accesses like on x86).

Given nowadays CPUs execute like 3-5 instructions per cycle, getting 5-15% performance for an interpreter would be very fast and very difficult to achieve, but possible - if designed from the ground up for performance.
In private equity you are employing the managers to create opportunities

And during bear markets I’ve seen some managers create the most onerous terms far beyond what I could think of, and that's paid excessive dividends for me

I think that’s the real hedge that’s overlooked here

The performance of private funds is also not a complete picture, individual limited partners have different profit and loss than whatever metric the whole fund is subject to, someone that joined as an LP after any trade doesn’t have their capital allocated to that prior or existing positions, only the subsequent ones. so its not really possible to judge performance of fund managers in comparison to indices the way that it is popularly compared. Unless LPs are showing their own performance in a scatterplot, nobody knows anything. and LPs are typically subject to NDAs.

I just think it’s too reductive to say nobody can beat the index, then move the goal post to longer and longer time frames. You only need to be successful once, in any time frame but specifically shorter ones
Sure the facility to fork still exists. So what? Observing that the kernel still provides fork() is like observing that the cpu still provides JMP.

It won't fork random processes you don't explicitly tell it to. I thought it was obvious that if you don't want unsolicited processes, then don't specify /bin/init as /bin/foo. The practical example is /bin/sh, but it could be any other executable.

Up to you to specify a binary that does what you want, and doesn't require a bunch of other processes like gdbus to function itself.

init=/bin/sh is more or less like ms-dos loading command.com
Think of when George Soros broke The Bank of England for an example of the type of trade.

There is a lot of demand for S&P 500 index , but that demand isn’t exactly tied to the fundamentals of the index, and the price isn’t tied to value of the underlying companies, it’s tied to demand of people looking to save money for retirement or a place to store a nest egg. This is an opportunity for price discovery to get things wrong and eventually the market should correct that.

Yeah, for what it's worth, my financial advisor is pushing me towards more value stocks and some more bonds. (I am somewhat older as well in addition to be in a position where being conservative makes sense.) Was just doing some research.
Can you teach me how it’s meaningfully different in terms of securely running a JIT compiler? What components should I be learning about?
And the assumption that the stock market will go up from now is itself a form of timing the market. It assumes that now is the best buying opportunity in the whole future. I don't like that refrain.
This is a control thing - if a city or county wishes to secede from the state, its website and emails can be shutdown easily now.
I actually assumed it would have a DND mode, as that's a standard part of other software in this genre. However, at least in my experience, do not disturb modes don't really resolve the issue unless it's acceptable to just keep it in that mode all the time. I don't know in advance when I will be in a state where disruptions will be problematic, so I can't plan ahead. And when in a flow state, I certainly don't have the level of external awareness required to know that I should enable DND.

This sort of thing is still an issue in-person, of course, but in-person has the advantage that when you're in person, you can tell at a glance if someone shouldn't be disturbed. That mitigates the issue a little bit.

It is a tough problem, really, and I doubt there's a technological solution to it.

And that's not even getting into the issue that such a system means you can't ignore the fact that you're constantly under surveillance. If I can't ignore that, then being under constant surveillance has really terrible effects on my mood and ability to concentrate.
> people doing bad things to them inform these innocent third parties

Let me also clarify and re-iterate: the people doing bad things to the innocent third parties aren't the bad people, it's the soi disant defenders who are shooting at them.
That's not necessarily true. I think this speaks to how American Exceptionalism (often observed in US defaultism on the web) is a problem.

They said a multi year batch of storms was climate change induced. That's significantly more valid than saying a specific normal-size storm is. The dice even out as you add more samples.

I don't want to look for papers right now. Ask them about the claim that "This has been a well-publicized problem there since at least the 1990's", not me.

My point is that you definitely can prove (or disprove) it. Your claim that it's unprovable on purpose or something is not right.
On the general idea, I'm thoroughly in support of alternative interfaces and workflows, so I see git-pr as a net win.

On the above steps, I feel it's misrepresenting what github/gitlab have to offer. The only real step would be "have an account on the platform" and looking at the file in a browser. From there creating a MR/PR in a new branch with the changes you want is painless and a matter of 3 or 4 clicks.

It works very well for repos with config files that only need the CI to be green, you get a full MR in 1 min if you want to.
Sorry for the inconvenience :(

Additional auth providers and UI theming were not a priority, and frankly, this is the first time I have received such a request.

This is probably a good time to mention that I am not a skilled reverse engineer.

Nope. You've walked the walk, you've earned the right to talk the talk. We're all building experience as we go.

You're now at least a junior reverse engineer, and seeing the size of this project, you can even drop the junior as far as I'm concerned. Enjoy!
This doesn't seem to be about improvement nor about algorithms. It's about bolting AI on top of everything (because that's the style at the time) for the sake of being able to tell that it has AI.

From marketing pov it kind of makes sense. If I think about it, if there are two otherwise equal toilet brushes, I will pick the one that has AI too.
I do as well. The cost/benefit of online meetings is, to me, a bit better than the cost/benefit of in-person ones. But 90% of all meetings I've even been in have been bad in some way (usually that they're wastes of time), online or not.
