I was the technical cofounder of a logtech startup. Logistics has a lot deep problems that need to be well integrated for a smooth UX. I think this is why you tend to see people eventually try to pivot into building a TMS (and why it takes so long to build one). They start solving a specific problem. They realize it’s not worth much without the whole picture and nobody wants to let other players integrate.

If your specific problem is well contained enough, it could be a good fit for in house. You mention that you’re filling the gaps with a low code platform. You could perhaps experiment with moving that piece in house as a trial run. You also say that your existing platform is stagnant, perhaps you could acquire them or the specific IP you utilize. You might learn some valuable insights about what you’d need to do in house even if you don’t end up seriously engaging in an acquisition or if it ends up falling through.

I wouldn’t be concerned about attracting talent, plenty of engineers in logistics already and it’s a hirer’s market right now.

Anyway, the devil’s in the details as you mentioned, my contact info is in my profile if you’d like to chat, happy to give what perspective I can.

This is one of those things that I wish people would speak more carefully about. I've seen it in every programming language community I've participated in, so it's not a language-specific thing, but... one should not say "language X does not do a thing" when they mean "language X's standard library does not do a thing". That the "language" doesn't do a thing should be reserved for the cases where the language itself really does preclude some particular thing for some reason. Otherwise the relatively inexperienced programmers end up coming away with some really weird mental models of what programming languages can and can not do, just like here. Of course Rust qua Rust can store strings like this, it's basically built for things like this. Any mental model of Rust that thinks Rust qua Rust can't do this is a weird mental model of Rust.

> My CI of choice is [Concourse](https://concourse-ci.org/) which describes itself as "a continuous thing-doer". While it has a bit of a learning curve, I appreciate its declarative model for the pipelines and how it versions every single input to ensure reproducible builds as much as it can.

What's the thought process behind using a CI server - which I thought is mainly for builds - for what essentially is a data pipeline?

>Around this same time, I bought a Honda gasoline-powered mower.

Get a robot, it trashes pretty much any other mowing equipment if the terrain allows it. Extremely low maintenance (time), virtually no noise whatsover. You also get perfectly even lawn at all times.

Based on personal experience having: a gas mower, gas a brushcutter, a battery strimmer, and the robot. Since the property is not that large, you would not need a riding mower or a zero-turnaround.

However buying Apple, Google or Microsoft, and then complaining they don't make hardware to run GNU/Linux natively on it, what is one naively expecting them to do otherwise?

If all you can do is tell me that I can't be right because I'm less educated on art than someone who doesn't agree with me, that just tells me I'm probably right. I'll stand in front of an art PhD and tell them their degree is worthless and a waste of time because it didn't teach to see something an uneducated idiot like me can see.

I think it's made clear in the show that just running the farm by itself would not be profitable, and if lucky would break even. Other farmers in the area are in far worse situations financially as they do not have a TV show as a sponsor.

Not sure what shot blast means, but as far as I know dishwashing machines just spray hot water and detergent on everything.

I guess that could cause abrasion if there's hard and sharp particles in the water, but I'm not sure what could cause those. Maybe if glass breaks during washing, but I'd assume the machine filters the water before reusing it.

> Ryzen 7 9700X: 8 Zen 5 cores, 32 MB L3 cache, 65W TDP, available Aug 8

Hmmm max TDP listed at 65W that's lower than my 7700X which listed max TDP at 105W I think. I know people have been running the 7700X with big fat fanless CPU heatsinks.

So I take it that even if these TDP ratings are a bit of a lie, it's still not much and it should be possible to run a 9700X without any fan on the CPU heatsink?
I mean, possibly. Networking is usually counted in bits though.

I am in the US and have been using Fastmail for years. I have no problem with automated billing to a consumer credit card. I have recently begun using Hetzner as well, and this also bills to the same card. I just looked at the Hetzner charge, and it shows up in the CC transactions as "hetzner.com" with a US domestic phone number associated.

My guess is that your CC has more strict foreign alerting than mine, so perhaps this is not very helpful information. But it is certainly possible, and perhaps Hetzner billing support (and Fastmail too!) have some advice for how to smooth things over with the bank.
> “they aren’t safe on the highway”

This seems so dubious. Safe for whom? If we're talking about the driver, how are motorcycles legal? If we're talking about other highway users, then I'd rather be hit by a kei car than a lifted mega-pickup with wheels sticking out 6" beyond the body.

> SearX

it uses combination of search results from other public services. if you self-host, your instance helps make these services single out the searcher (if not used by lots of unrelated people).

did not go through the code but if you use a public instance, it might be possible to do similar level of logging at instance-level what we accuse the search giants for. might be through some opt-out debugging feature or what have you.

at the end you place trust on a third party directly or not.

> Cruise Speed 148 KTAS is equivalent to approximately 170 mph or 275 km/h.

if the consumption is 7 times as high (very conservative calculation) and the speed is about twice as high, we are still at a modifier of 3.5. right?

Too much for me. We should be aiming for the absolute minimisation of fossil fuels.

> There's a reason you can see "Not dishwasher safe" on certain items:

I've nerve seen it on glassware though. That warning is usually for plastics since they melt at hot dishwasher water, and on certain metal cook-ware where the caustic dishwasher detergent will corrode the metal anodization, but glass is usually resistant to both temperature and caustic detergents, which is why it's used in bio labs for storing and mixing harsh chemicals, granted, different composition of glass, but it's still glass not adamantium.

So this point doesn't scan for me.

I've always considered it an open secret that the motorcycle industry in the US doesn't get the same kind of scrutiny that the automobile industry does. If they had to comply with even a shred of the same emissions & safety regulations it would instantly destroy the market.
> 3-6 months is how long it takes when you custom-order a car, pretty ridiculous that you don't understand this simple fact.

That's how long it takes now. Relying on dealerships is part of the reason for that. If manufacturers were allowed to direct deliver, they could do away with dealerships as the only warehousing mechanism, and do their own warehousing to cut down that time. I was trying to point out that the constraints of the current system would not apply to a different system, but you missed that. No biggie.

> Every consumer bank offers auto loan financing and yet somehow, tons of people prefer to go with the dealer.

Again, why is that? Go to a dealership and see what price you can talk them down to with financing, and what price you can talk them down to paying cash. You'll be surprised at the results.

> You still didn't state how the car would get from the factory to your house - would you have to hire a delivery company?

You could pick it up from the warehouse, or have it delivered. Both of those technologies have existed for a long time :)

> Like most of HN, you are choosing to ignore the real-world reasons these companies exist and assume some techno-utopia would solve all problems

What does doing away with dealerships have to do with technology? Im confused by that statement.

> 280 9.0+ vulnerabilities in seventy thousand plugins, the long tail of which have maybe dozens of activations at most.

This actually is a great point. A few years ago when working on a code analysis tool, we mirrored every single WP plugin and let it chew on them for a while.

It used a mixture of static and dynamic analysis, and “kinda worked” to some extent.

It found more issues than we could reasonably handle, and a lot of them were in plugins with maybe two installs ever and that hadn’t been activated in years.

We ran out of beans before implementing a proper triage system that would score the findings based on popularity or “last updated” data.

I may revisit this sometime though, as my ideas on static and dynamic analysis have come a long way since then!
An article using The Little Schemer format, what do you think of it?
Hello HN,

I'm not judging anyone here btw, it's just interesting banter, I hope you don't take it the wrong way. I also agree with you that it is objectively worse to do it for 20 years than 2 years.

That being said, the "I had limited options" is in my opinion a bullshit excuse, specially for this specific situation. Nobody's "few options" is working for a financial fraud operation. When you're out of options you work construction or drive a long haul truck or whatever.
It's interesting you mention upfront that you travel. Is that travel for work where you might be staying in corporate hotels?

I ask because when I have travelled for work, it's the corporate hotels that have often baked a Chromecast into their TV experience, even to the point of sorting out their wifi network so you're only able to cast to the screen in your room. Their splash screen offers "live TV" or the option to "stream from your phone".

They often don't shout about the fact that it's a chromecast doing the work, but the telltale standby screen that shows up when you're not casting something normally confirms it.
A good few people cant imagine doing anything for any other reason. The fascinating aspect is that (combined with endless rent seeking) everything gets more expensive and eventually people wont have time to do anything for free. What is also fascinating is that by [excessively] not accounting for things done for free people shall take them for granted. We are surrounded by useful things done for us by generations long gone.

I started thinking about this when looking at startup micro nations. Having to build everything from scratch turns out to be very expensive and a whole lot of work.

Meanwhile we are looking to find ways to sell the price label separately. haha

When I worked at a supermarket I often proposed to rearrange the shelves into a maze. One can replace the parking lot with a hedge maze with many entrances an exits from the building. Special doorways on timers and remote control so that you need only one checkout. Add some extra floors, mirrors and glass walls.

There are countless possibilities, you could also have different entrances and different exits with different fees, doorways that only open if you have all varieties of a product in your basket, crawling tunnels, cage fights for discounts, double or nothing buttons, slot machines to win coupons.

Yes Duralex is pretty sweet. They are thicker than normal glasses too. At home went from breaking / chipping a glass a week to maybe 3-4 a year. I have seen Duralex bounce off the tile unscathed many times.
Nice benchmarks. One caveat is - why not publish which motherboard/RAM combination you were using for the review? Looks like they were using an existing AM5 MB - but I don't see it in the review.
So, before Lee made his discovery physicists believed (or assumed, or conjectured, or theorized) that “the laws of physics were identical whether observed directly or as a mirror image." Lee and Yang proposed that this did not always hold. Their proposal was later confirmed by experiments.

So, what physicists believed before Lee, was not a law of nature. Lee challenged what his colleagues believed to be true.

But you are right all so called laws of physics are provisional.

> The glasses are too good for pure market thinking.

This argument never made sense to me.

Of course if you go to the big glass retailers. That just sounds like dumb marketing. It clearly would require a smaller retailer that could disrupt.

The people you have to convince to buy these are the direct consumers who carry the cost. Combine that maybe with some financial products to make it easy to acquire or directly cooperate with drinks companies, or distribution companies.

Or I mean there are lots of other potential markets for glass.

At the very least they are not telling the full story here. If this glass is really so amazingly superior, and such a no-brainer, then somebody could have saved a lot of money here. More likely the company was just not positioned or lead well enough to figure out a strategy.

At the vary least I need more then a one supporter with skin in the game saying 'we were just to good'. I have heard that often and its sometimes true, more often it isn't.
The article talks about sustainability, so clearly Euro isn't the unit to measure that.
The next generation of motherboards is supposed to make USB 4 standard. Those are coming some time after the CPU release though.
I think your observation can be generalised - all of physics is human narrative description of events in the universe, coupled with some principles for choosing one narrative over another.

I think when a scientist says "free will does not exist", they mean that in a very particular sense - a theory of physics (or narrative) that includes free will has as much predictive power as one that doesn't. So from a scientific point of view it's parsimonious to exclude it.

As you rightly point out this has nothing to do with the subjective experience of free will, which is an aspect of consciousness that I expect most people are familiar with (scientists or no).

By the way, this is not directly related, but who are these scientists you speak of who claim to be unable to measure time? Time, as it is used in theories like classical mechanics or relativity, has been measurable with clocks for millenia. The measurements fulfil the role of time in those theories; the predictions they make have been tested to an extreme degree. This is the strongest evidence for time as an ontological primitive that science can produce!

(which is not inconsistent with the fact that it may behave differently outside those regimes)
If its not a secret, do you mind sharing what the use case is? I'm curious because my thoughts originally were that this would be useful when running something that takes more than the trivial few minutes to finish.

Notably, the company does not release audited financials anymore. If the company were able to go from breakeven to netting 80% margins, great. But nobody should believe such a turnaround without evidence.

Separately, if the company were netting $320mm annually (using your hypothetical), AND we assign the P/E of best-in-class Meta (which is growing, not shrinking), the company would be worth $8B[1]. Under these generous assumptions, Musk has presided over a $36B (82%) destruction of value in under 2 years.

1 - That's not accounting for the outstanding debt used to finance the deal. Including that makes the value of the enterprise negative.
