To clarify: You can connect a 5V power source by connecting it to the VSYS pin which leads into the on-board voltage regulator.

But the µC itself runs on 3.3V and is not totally 5V-capable. You'd need level converters to interface with 5V.

Indeed, we launched an MVP in Show HN a few months ago — dang messaged us and said we should apply to YC, which we did, and now we're launching here again, officially. :D

We will definitely support those frameworks too, eventually. Though, we think that each integration must be done very carefully — we'd rather have excellent support for one framework and capture its entire audience before going horizontally, than ten mediocre integrations that give our users a headache on setup. We went for Next.js first because a) it's the most popular JS framework for new projects right now, and b) existing Next.js auth is pretty shit.
Since a significant amount of my knowledge/intuition about linear algebra comes from his book, I now feel not only that I don’t like determinants but that I’m allergic even to matrices. Everything seems so much nicer and friendlier if you think of linear maps between finite-dim vector spaces instead.

When I hear, for example, ‘upper triangular matrix’ I have to translate it in my head into something like ‘matrix representing a linear operator that preserves the standard flag’ in order to actually feel like I understand it.

Of course, I’m not a programmer or an engineer of any kind, so I have the luxury of not needing the computational efficiency.

I'll put it this way. He clearly loves teaching. He's better at it than almost any teacher I ever had. He's clearly very intelligent. He loves doing work that interests him, as opposed to lucrative professional tasks.

I'm not in his head, but it sounds like his ideal job would be professor.

Let's presume that second paragraph is true. He doesn't have that job, let alone have it at a top university. He hasn't been given a PhD (a de facto minimum requirement for that job). UIUC is great, but in a tier below other schools, who presumably didn't admit him (or made him pay too much).

But saying he's "ranked in the top 1%" is very disingenuous to this conversation. The 99th percentile basketball doesn't make a college team. And I'm saying he belongs on the NBA All-Star team. And yes, it would be a "catastrophically bad" bad process if Anthony Davis couldn't have made a college team. But the difference between 99th percentile and 99.9999th percentile is enormous, and mistaking one for the other in any context is terrible.

They have a new performance rating system that says that 5% of every team should be ranked as "needs improvement" meaning an automatic PIP. When MSFT did this in the 2000's, it was a requirement to fire that group. Firings for performance do not entitle an employee to severance, but official "layoffs" generally do outside of bankruptcy. Net cost of this move is hidden in employees spending time updating resumes and doing job interviews, not in direct bottom line dollars from actually paying out severance.

The language isn't the biggest problem. Once you learn the language your problems don't stop. The big problem is most companies in Germany still prefer to exclusively hire locals who went through the German education system and have degrees from established local educational institutions, instead of recognizing foreigners' digress from abroad at similar levels to that of locals.

It's a white collar form of discrimination. Unless you come from a country as 'white' and wealthy as Germany, your degrees and experience is seen as much less valuable despite your language knowledge and your CV will be rejected even if it's technically a fit. Then comes the discrimination you'll face when looking for a place to rent but that's in other countries as well like the Netherlands.
Since you can't find another vendor, it might be time to bring on software consulting practice that specializes in this area or at least doing something similar.

If you can find a firm that is capable of doing the work, then you can figure out how you will maintain the software. You'd have to determine whether it would be better to engage that firm for the maintenance or hire someone. Possibly a combination of both. This could be done while the software is being built.

Large software projects are more likely to take longer than estimated and go over budget, so be sure to factor this in to your calculations.

If you do go this freelancer route I would assume that there will be no code to maintain long-term. The freelancers should be building a prototype, not something intended to last decades.

Either the freelancers work out and you begin hiring a permanent team (hopefully converting some freelancers to full-time) who will promptly rewrite / revise the prototype or you will go back to paying for software. Either way the prototype code should die or be taken over.

There's still a lot my Palm 3xe can do that an iPhone can't. Smartphones feel like a regression in most ways except improvements in a handful of hardware peripherals.
My biggest suggestion is to look into ways that the transition can be done in stages, rather than trying to replace everything in one big swoop. This is likely doable, especially since you are already having to rely on outside tools.

Then to start building, hire a small team (employees or freelancers) and have them create a single piece of functionality that can be swapped out from the current workflow. This type of approach will limit the upfront costs and give you a much better idea of how feasible the replacement will be as a whole. It will almost certainly go smoother as well. Every rewrite/replacement of a large software project runs into a lot of unexpected challenges and complexity that will have to be ironed out, and this limits the disruption at any one time.

There are a lot of factors in whether or not to go this route, but it's certainly plausible that it's a good decision. I worked for a smaller company that did something similar and gradually built out their own internal workflow software tailored to the business. Overall it worked out quite well and they ended up with much better software at a lower price than they would have paid for outside tools. I'm sure there are plenty of examples of the opposite result as well. You're right to be cautious but I think it's an idea worth exploring further.

I had an idea and even basic prototype a million years ago where I was going to get a bunch of used cheap Android phones for free or very cheap, and make a transcoding cluster out of it and make a ton of money. I figured that no one wants old phones, and Android phones are relatively powerful and utilize a relatively small amount of power, so I'd be able to undercut competitors, and I thought it would be a good idea to get more life out of these computers and reduce e-waste.

I got ahold of most of my friends and family's "old phones living in a drawer", and I did more or less get the prototype working with a message queue, but I never really figured out a good way to utilize the built in h264 encoding chips, so it was always extremely slow software encoding, slow enough to where I don't think anyone would have actually paid me for it, and I lost interest in it.

I don't think it was a dumb idea, and it's not something I've completely given up on doing eventually, but I don't think it was as clever as 23 year old me thought it was either. If anyone here disagrees feel free to take it and run with it.
This seems like the story in "The Phoenix Project". If the outsourced software is critical to your operations, it seems it should be brought in-house. Software design is best done when the feedback loop is very tight. It never is with outsourced software.

As for how to go about building a team, you are better placed than I am to figure it out. Probably start with a small team with the most critical bits and build from there.
You can probably reduce it down to a single definition. As soon as matrix multiplication is introduced without careful motivation, almost everyone is lost. And those who aren’t should be.

It’s mostly because, as Axler explicitly tries to address, linear algebra is a subject that can be viewed through at least two different lenses: the intuitive, (possibly higher-dimensional) geometric lens, or the algorithmic and numerical lens. Of course they are equivalent, but almost every course in linear algebra teaches the second and barely even touches on the first. It’s like learning Euclid’s algorithm before you’ve learnt to count. No wonder everyone’s so confused.
Jesus Christ that can't be real.
1000% agreed -- I worked for Ford and GM and now work for a different vehicle software company, and the salary I made starting out + the employee discount meant that vehicles were affordable, but not fun to afford. Now, I can't upgrade my F150 to something with more towing capacity and couldn't even while working at GM with their employee discount and somewhat lower truck prices in general compared to the other Big Three. The problem is corporate culture related, but it's also contributed to by the safety regs requiring every car to have a bunch of driver assist things that drive up total cost even on low end cars, meaning that the mid and high end need to be super profitable for overall fleet profit to be acceptable.

Aren't the reader and writer of the pipe part of the same software package?

If they are, then safe[1] functions for that type make sense:

bool email_to_bytes(email_t *src, uint8_t **dst, size_t *len);
bool email_from_bytes(email_t *dst, uint8_t *src, size_t len);

This still means that you're only ever passing around `email_t` values, not `char *` values.

On the other hand, if the reader and writer of the pipe are in different packages, then the pipe is the boundary for each of them, and you wouldn't be passing language native types without first serialising to a language independent representation anyway.

[1] By "safe" I mean that they don't overflow and that the actual binary format allows the `from_bytes` function to determine when the input could be malicious.

Amusingly, when first playing through A Link To the Past on its remake for the GBA, I distinctly remember getting stuck before the seventh dungeon, which ultimately requires you to find the statue in the dark world that corresponds to the rooster statue in Kakariko.

GameFAQs also taught me that it was possible to glitch out of bounds and traverse a specific path through the game's memory in order to access the new dungeon that you were only supposed to be able to enter if you completed the remake-exclusive multiplayer mode.

That's pretty contrived. Dragon has a 'standard' of multiple successful flights.

> A redo of this mission would cost Boeing half a billion dollars, easy. And since the contract is fixed-price, this would just add to Boeing's losses. So I expect they will certify Starliner even if it comes down without a crew.

This is the problem with old space. SpaceX blows stuff up on the regular just to see what went boom. And they absorb the cost themselves. They don't fly something that has proven itself fully before. It's clear this approach works. If they can do it while not wasting billions, why can't Boeing?

And "it will cost the vendor money" should really not factor into safety decisions.

The classic moat metaphor that the OP article and others use needs to be fleshed out to match Intel's predicament.

A moat protects a castle that adversaries want to take over. The presence of the castle defines what can and cannot be done with the surrounding landscape. But if the castle ceases to protect what people care about, or make meaningful additions to the environment, it becomes irrelevant and the presence of the moat makes no difference.

Intel's problem isn't that competitors want to storm the castle and achieve domination over the landscape that x86 controls. It's that the competition have built their own castles on the other side of the river, and a lot of the peasants are tilling the lands around Castle ARM and Chateau NVIDIA.

To put it another way, Intel thought the castle was "control of computing" and the moat was "leadership in x86" but irrelevance comes a little closer with each passing chip generation. It is fortunate for Intel that corraling an ecosystem into existence around the alternatives to x86 is an insanely difficult task, but it has been done with ARM, it has been done (albeit for a niche) with NVIDIA and it can be done again with whatever comes next.
