I think I’m more confused by the claim that my statement above is ‘predicated on a hierarchical economic class system’. I don’t particularly want to argue about whether you or I live under a class system that is particularly hierarchical or economic, so let’s just suppose that we do. Why would my claim above (not sure whether you mean that vibrant 2nd hand market => less e-waste, or that selling a device where the battery hasn’t been replaced could lead to the buyer paying for a battery replacement and potentially reselling) not apply without such a hierarchical economic class system?

Maybe I misunderstood what ‘predicated’ meant?
It's a mindset problem; people use git commits as the equivalent of hitting save in their editor, and they feel like they should use it as a work log, justifying their time spent or feeling like they have to demonstrate how they got to a certain solution. It's not relevant. Ego is not important. You don't need to justify your time.
LE is also much faster in terms of performance. For example, because of the efficiency of the add or subtract operations.

#1 is exceptionally powerful. My parents never lied to me or attempted to deceive me. They always emphasized telling the truth, no matter how painful the consequences might be.

I’ve seen other families that lie to each other about the most trivial of things and it ends up with them all constantly feeling gaslit and not trusting each other. How horrible it would be to not have that feeling of safety and security with your own parents.
Natural languages...

The word "End" can also mean any "extremity" and not just the opposite of "beginning". Otherwise phrases "on both ends of the spectrum" wouldn't make sense.

Thus, a positional encoding of a number has one side (end) where the impact of digits is much higher (big) than the other side (end) where the impact is lower (little).

Little end: the side with lower "weight"
Big end: the side with higher "weight"

Being "little endian" is a property of the encoding or architecture, not the property of the word. The word is not "little endian", i.e. its "end" is not "little". The encoding is little endian in that it starts with the little end of the word. You're rightly confused because the fact we're now suddenly talking about the start of the word is implicit and based on the assumption that the reader knows Gulliver's tale.

GP comment says that more often than not the blogger isn't an artist. I'd like to add that not only blog-sellers can benefit from the advice above: if someone is drawing an instruction manual, making an expressionist painting is counterproductive to the totally valid goal of conveying information as clearly as possible and in the most digestible manner. Stick to the stick figures if that's your goal.

And if you write primarily for the sake of writing, I don't think anyone is telling _you_ to change your approach in a way that doesn't fit _your_ goals. The advice are for others.
This attack wouldn't have worked in a mining free, fee-less cryptocurrency with sub-second confirmation times (ie, block lattice).

The only reason we're still talking about BTC is bag-holders. It's vastly technologically inferior on every metric.

Talking about BTC's failures as if they exemplify cryptocurrency is just like attacking solar panels on the basis of whale oil's flaws.
Exactly! STG, being a "graph reduction machine," inherently makes it easier to understand the relationships between parts of code by representing programs as graphs. Here, I simply reversely translated the generated graph from JavaScript and pushed it into a visual graphical form to make the analysis more intuitively accessible.

I suppose we could have a tool which does such graphical representation automatically for STG, generated from Haskell but I was need to measure its volume in JavaScript form. That's why I was needed to reconstruct it back from JavaScript.
I remember using physical screens that only had 64 or even 40 columns. (A printout was more practical for reading anyway. Just tolerate a few minutes of dot-matrix noise.)
ACE 5. I have been moderately successful in life and work, more so in the last few years, after I was treated for ADHD. Still have psychological issues to work through.

For me, the successes came from a combination of luck, and learning to make lemonade from the lemons life gives you. I was lucky to meet my wife in college, and even more lucky that she saw something in me, the confused and abandoned kid that I was. She filled in my weaknesses with her strengths, and I like to think that I had a similar effect on her.

I was the black sheep of the family, which drew me to entrepreneurism at an early age and made me not scared of taking risks. Either that or it was the toxoplasma. That's given me some moderate success in work and a comfortable life, but I don't feel fulfilled.

As a european, I am baffled by those numbers ! A 2.0L consuming 27L/100 is MASSIVE.

I have a 2 ton car with a 1.5L turbocharged engine, and even with air conditioning and city driving it NEVER jumps over 7L/100.

I always find the gas mileages of american cars just mind boggling compared to those sold in Europe
I assume running your own nodes and only connecting to them renders the attack moot?
I had all the same problems but had the opposite conclusion, that I’ll never give them any more of my money if I can help it. Of course that could change if the mainstream x86 laptops continue to get worse and worse.
After reading the comments here, I agree.

I always imagined myself as a Framework kind of guy, but I'm not sure I could bear that level of quality after using Microsoft Surface Books, Macbook Pros and now a Thinkpad professionally.

I really don't need bad hinges, weak USB ports, weird screen hinges or operating system worries.
No one criticizes the manifesto itself I believe. But there's a huge difference between the abstract idea and principles of the manifesto, and an actual implementation that usually differs from company to company. So, yeah, the idea of babies is nice and all (everyone loves the manifesto), but you need to change diapers and that gets dirty. No one likes to changes diapers (no one likes Agile).

Finland has recently a significant attack against one of Finland's largest psychotherapy clinics, Vastaamo, The criminal stole all personal information + therapy notes, then started to blackmail company and patients (over 20k victims, many of them very vulnerable, leading to suicides).

National Bureau of Investigation traced the hacker trough Monero transaction. First they sent 0.1 Bitcoin to the blackmailer's address and used that for statistical analysis tracing the money into and out of Monero.

ps.

The police unecrypted 64-character password was used to protect sensitive data on his hard drive. It was not random enough.

They 'took fingerprint' from a digital imange and used it for identification. The criminal on the run took a photo showing only his hand holding a glass. It was enough to see a fingerprint.

Was this refusal of a normal cash transaction, or something silly (unreasonably large transaction/transaction all in one cent coins/transaction which would raise money laundering alarms etc)? Like, if you try to pay 10,000 dollars in cash, or, say, buy a stack of prepaid debit cards with cash, most places are going to be sceptical of that.
My git status is `git s` aliased to `git status -sb`, don't need all the extra clutter.

I also have a few .zshrc aliases, like `gap` which is `git add -p` or `gam` which is `git commit --amend --no-edit`.

But also some typo fixing ones that I end up doing a lot, some because I type in half a command and get distracted / check something, then start over with a partially filled in command:

alias gigit="git"
alias gitgit="git"
alias ggit="git"
alias qgit="git"
alias ght="git"
alias got="git"
alias cleear="clear"
alias gits="git s"

Another trick, in your .gitconfig, add this [alias]:

git = !git

That way, if you accidentally do `git git commit` or whatever (like above) it just works. Also, some typo fixes there:

commmit = commit
comit = commit
Purism. I got shipped a dud screen and they told me to open it up and check all the cables, etc.

Then the battery died and I had to replace the motherboard - they shipped me a replacement (for not much) and I did the replacement myself. Kinds fun and very simple. All the screws and fasteners are standard and obvious.
Amazing work.

I am also impressed by the advances in technology. 20 years ago, I had severe RSI problems and worked on "vx-mode", a package for interfacing XEmacs to Dragon NaturallySpeaking, the best speech-recognition solution available at the time. My goals were similar, although the result was nowhere near what the OP has done. Also, speech recognition tech was nowhere near what we have now: I still remember buying good microphones, worrying about microphone placement relative to mouth, endless training and re-training…

This kind of software can make a huge difference for many people.
If I just want to record sound, is webrtc a good solution for that?
Thanks for your great feedback! You gave me lots of good ideas to make the site better. I'll fix the turning boxes and work on the layout. I'll also make the text easier to read and fix the broken links. Your ideas about the "things to do" part and adding ways to sort stories are very helpful. Thank you for taking the time to help me improve!
ah yeah the good old 10 trillion budget vs the 1 trillion for the same amount of renewables with a faster pace.
That’s just wrong. Revolut, N26 and Bunq all have banking licenses, which means funds are insured to €100 000, €200 000 if it’s a shared account.

It’s not that they “steal” your money, but unlike your local bank, their customer service is much less tactile which means that if you’re up shit’s creek getting out if it gets much harder.
If the emissions still happen, its not useful in doing anything for the climate.
I admit my phrasing was harsh, but I stand by it with a caveat that I could have expressed it better. I personally do not think of the masses as "simpletons," but I believe our media and product manufacturers most certainly do. There should have been a semi-colon between those two sentences, or something.

My own writing could use more work, but I suppose that is the point of practicing it as an art.
Wow, I love how you see this as art! I hadn't thought of it that way. It's cool to think about it as something that just shares good feelings. Thanks for giving me a new way to look at my project.
No need to compare against fossil fuels, compare with renewables. That is the alternative today.
Please explain how so.
Thanks for looking at my site! You're right about making it work better on phones. I'll fix the spacing to make it easier to use on small screens.
Would you have said anything if the comment said "there's a guy" ?...

Was it monthly? I took it to mean a $40 one-off. Also, they don't say it requires broadband, for all we know LTE was fine for it...
Fully agreed. The oversimplification of the scoring system feels deeply wrong.
Haha, I should definitely reconsider its accuracy. Thank you for questioning that and for the kind words about the site!
I turned out to be a total failure. I am to finish my uni next semester, but I was unable to find any sort of internship so I will have issues graduating. I am very lazy person. I don't have any sort of worth and I'm a disappointment to my parents.
Breathing, heart beats, and keeping the sphincter closed is allowed.
I'm happy you like the site and the links! For the short bits at the top, I sum up the main points from the stories. I should make it clear these are my words, not quotes.
Although not every website or app needs all of these tools, they offer a much better User Experience (no page reload, better performance, etc.) and, even more importantly, a much better Developer Experience. The learning curve is a little bit more steep, but these tools drastically facilite the creation of large websites or apps. For example, we could not build very large ecommerce website with one single main.css file.

> To answer the OP directly, I'm not satisfied with my life, and from my ACE score it's obvious that I have no one else to blame but myself.

This isn’t fair to yourself, or anyone else reading this and feeling the same way.

There’s a difference between good parenting, bad parenting, and abusive parenting. Just because your parents weren’t abusive, doesn’t mean they were good at instilling all the useful and/or important values in you.

Also, there’s a difference between blaming your parents for who you are, blaming yourself for who you are, and accepting that things have happened, learning from them, and using it as the basis for growth.

Consider how old you are today. Consider what age your parents were during your formative years. The closer you get to being the same age your parents were, the easier I think it gets to recognise that your parents might have been much like you are: imperfect beings trying whatever resembled their best on any given day.

Ultimately, try to be kind to be kind to yourself, but also be accountable to yourself. Kind accountability tends to work better than blunt brute harshness (just like you catch more flies with honey…)
Haha, it's a great point about the paradox of this advice! It's true that not everyone will want to (or should) focus on unscalable things.
> It's a science and observing human behavior is within the lines of that science.

That's not science. Science requires, hypothesis and testing, it also requires isolating confounding factors. Reality TVs and Mr. Beast videos aren't that.

> I did, found no evidence, and yours is flimsy.

Is it? Luckily, there is more, now go and look better.

> Sounds like your a child molester and pedophile. See what I did there?

Do you mean you're putting words in my mouth? I'm used to it.

> Your comparison was completely uncalled for, "No doesn't mean No" doesn't need to be placed in the context of rape, of course he's saying that in the context of an aggressive hustle culture.

Seeing the culture/people he surrounded himself with, I'm not sure if that's uncalled-for. But I'm awaiting further proof to make a definite statement.

> He's promoting a hustle culture. I'm not too into that myself. But "Machiavellian" is, again, too over the top.

'Ends justify the means' is literally Machiavellian. That guidebook is full of it. Call it hustle, call it A-players, it's the same thing.

---

To sum up, you don't know what science is, you don't seem to be able to read between the lines, came into this uninformed and have a nasty tendency to misread and put words I didn't write/commission into my mouth. I'm done here. This is debate with someone who's arguing in bad faith.
I sent Framework a video much like the one showing floppy hinges in OP, and they shipped me replacements free of charge that I could swap myself in a couple of minutes.

An unfortunate production issue, but that and a screen issue (I can't quite remember, a dead row I think) made a nice early showcase of user serviceability for me.
It seems there are no best practices here. I remember senior devs working with a gui for git that didn’t have rebase in it. I worked on the cli, whenever I mentioned that I rebased people looked at me with raised eyebrows since I was not a senior and new.
You are correct. There are way too many assistant roles in the creative industry that come with little to none real job training, just “watch what I do, or do as I tell, and never make a mistake twice or you’re toast”.

I think it’s due to the sheer amount of candidates, and the total power some superiors have over you.

It’s a sink or swim strategy, but you’re also swimming with sharks.
No form of writing benefits from purposefully making it longer and harder to read. You might be writing about complex topics, but you still want to strive towards simplicity. As simple as possible, but no simpler.
All security assumptions on bitcoin rely on 128bit entropy (256 bits in a private key divided by 2)
You're missing the point I'm trying to make and that's probably on me because I didn't explain it very clearly.

You wrote

> So yes, your advice is great if you want to sell a blog. It's terrible if you actually want to write.

The advice has nothing to do with selling a blog—whatever that means—and more to do with communication. Writing, especially on the web, is more often than not a communication tool and not an exercise in rhetoric.

And the point of communication is to, well, communicate. Using complex language doesn't take you closer to that goal. If you write 4000 words when 200 can be used to convey the same message and the result is that fewer people end up reading what you wrote then your communication is not effective.

Now, if what you want is to write as an artistic expression then by all means write 4000 words or even 40000. That's totally fine and nobody is stopping you from doing that obviously.
I sometimes feel like playing the piano :D But the UX is better than you'd think, there's packages that show you what options you have for what key to press next, and the sequences are generally quite logical (e.g. CTRL-x followed by "p" has all the commands related to projects).

Plus you can always just enter the command instead of using the key stroke for it. Again, the default UX for that is a bit weak, but with a few packages it becomes pretty strong.
If the training data for these LLMs is from humanity in general, and it is trying to imitate humanity, wouldn't its IQ tend to be the average of all of humanity? Perhaps the only people who talk about STEM topics are people of higher IQ generally, including a lot of poor students asking homework questions. Thus, the way to get to higher IQ output is to critique the lower IQ answers, which may be more numerous by rejecting their flaws in favor of the higher IQ answers. That, or just training more heavily on textbooks, and so forth. How to reject errors, and maybe train on synthetic data generated without reasoning with errors.

Pick one... If there is no big deal, why would they want to keep the database secret? Also, do you have any source on that?
I love my Framework 16 with Linux. The only problem is the battery life. From 100 to 20 in 4 hours or less.

ACE 0, happy childhood, very problematic puberty and adolescence. I was bullied.

Much later in life I discovered I was what is called a Sigma male and everything made sense.

I created my own company but was poor for a while(but very happy to do what I wanted). People probably felt sorry for me but I did not care about their opinions.

Very happy now. Not poor anymore.
Nice article! It's always interesting to look behind the scenes of payment infrastructure.

BTW, when I tried the interactive demo [1] I noticed that it appended "undefined" to the end of the generated XML. Happens both in Firefox and Chrome, so it doesn't seem to be a browser quirk.

Great... now I need a shower. :(
I live next to a highway on-ramp. The motorcycles are the worst, some of them are so loud while accelerating that it is impossible to have a conversation on my yard, over a hundred meters away.

The city is now investing tens of millions of euros to retrofit a noise barrier to protect our neighborhood. I think our house surfers the most from the noise. Yet - if it only wasn't for those loud motorcycles I would think the noise barrier is unnecessary. It would be much more cost effective to set and enforce noise pollution rules than to build expensive noise protection infrastructure everywhere where people live close to roads.
It was / is a very straightforward question. Given this C fragment:

u16 x = 1;
u8 * px = (u8 *)&x;

What byte does px point to? LSB orders means that it points to the least significant byte (that has value 1); MSB order means it points to the most significant byte (value 0).
Surely a html web page and maybe 5 lines of JS could have accomplished the same thing?

Or am I missing something?
But also perhaps not conflating “success” with morally positive outcomes.

Being efficient at destroying the planet is to successfully destroy the planet.

I think the original point was precisely to separate the concepts that make something successful - to be successful at what you do - from a judgement on the outcomes - the thing that you are doing.
This, like a lot of the advice is "Things that worked for me that likely won't work for you". A lot of people are going to talk to Mr Beast that won't talk to you, Mr Beast is doing a variety of one off projects that he'll never need to revisit. Mr Beast has a shit tonne of money and a shit tonne of resources. For all those reasons, it's something that he can do that you probably can't.
We should also be honest how much of it is due to HN itself (as in the existence of the website). Before it I never associated start-ups with hacking, if anything, due to free software ideology, I always thought it flirted with anti-capitalism really. But today, the hacker world seems to be centred in sf and it's likely due to reddit and HN.

True. I often times find myself typing out the command rather than using some obscure key sequence like C-c C-v n (case in point: https://orgmode.org/manual/Key-bindings-and-Useful-Functions...). Since Emacs does tab completion for the command name too, I personally find that a better UX than using the "shortcut" (if I can remember it at all).
That statement is incorrect. The payment was made in bitcoin to a wallet on binance: https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/security/vastaamo-hack...

Inside binance the attacker converted the money to monero and from there the trail was lost but they already had enough personal info from binance to inspect his personal bank accounts.

In summary, Monero remains untraceable. Even more now that the goverments forced binance to remove monero support. Now attackers will use centralized exchange sites where no western authorities can ask for help or simply use decentralized P2P exchanges.
My definition of the term “success” does not include “I respect and approve of their goals”. I define “success” as “they achieved ambitious goals”, independently of my opinion of those goals.

There are plenty of successful politicians who I disagree with on virtually every issue. I would still classify them as “successful” and I am still interested in understanding how they managed to achieve those goals, despite disliking what they have done with those skills.
Seems like your average creative industry company, to be honest.

Underpaid, overworked, expectations of “total dedication”, for the off-chance that you can rise to the top or branching out.
That would make a lot of sense.
