The mark of the actual master is that almost no one can identify them, and the people who can are so rare as to probabilistically not appear in smaller companies. They “run” the company without the appearance of doing so.

If someone does appear who can identify them, they are quickly exited from the company via various means depending on the individual: pair them with a particularly distasteful partner/manager, make their job impossible via passive means, or enable them to humiliate themselves.

The only real symptom is that there is no one around them that competes with them in their self-perceived core competency, and they never seem to put a foot wrong. Once the are in a high position, anyone who complains about their behavior is said to be attempting to climb.
The number one selling car in the world is electric.
I think that’s a bad idea, those other companies have lots of competition and haven’t abused their positions nearly as much as google has.
You could potentially determine it by comparing other companies he could've gone to work for, such as say IBM, and determine their pay in comparison.
I've been happy with a Dell XPS 15, basically maxed-out on specs when it was new 3+ years ago. No problems to speak of.
Right but this is a paradigm shift. If anything the 60 year-olds dumped on AI. Statisticians dumped on AI. Cybernetics/engineers all dumped on it. Just like everyone dumped on mRNA vaccines. I do agree with you about GLP-1 though that's legit as is the HIV vaccine.

But still the way forward is computational thinking that is very clear.
" in Google's case, GMail and Google Maps"

They did this when they were much smaller. I haven't seen anything impressive from the huge tech companies in the last years, be it MS, Google or Apple. All the the cool stuff was done years ago when they were much smaller. Their main achievements is to buy up or just crush potential competition before they become competitive.
I was involved in some physical network inventory software a dozen years ago. One team produced some new web-based software for it, for use by field agents and such. The first version we got to review was rather bad in various important areas; my favourite was that search would take over thirty seconds in common real-world deployment environment: it was implemented in .NET stuff that makes server calls easy to do by accident and in unnecessarily blocking fashion, and searched by each of the 34 entity types individually, in sequence; and some .NET session thing meant that if the connection had been idle for ten minutes or something, it would even then need to retry every request that got queued while the session was “stale”, which was all of them. So you ended up with 68 sequential requests, on up to half a second’s latency (high-latency 3G or 2G or geostationary satellite)… so yeah, 30 seconds.

They’d only developed it with sub-millisecond latency to the server, so they never noticed this.

I don’t think it was a coincidence that the team was US-based: in Australia, we’re used to internet stuff having hundreds of milliseconds of latency, since so much of the internet is US-hosted, so I think Australians would be more likely to notice such issues early on. All those studies about people abandoning pages if they take more than two seconds to load… at those times, it was a rare page that has even started rendering that soon, because of request waterfalls and high latency. (These days, it’s somewhat more common to have CDNs fix the worst of the problem.)
Android is hardly the best example of OSS out there. It's clearly controlled by Google.
I’m just surprised they hold up to non-EV vehicles at a similar angle/speed. At 45 degrees, seems like most ICE cars would fly through them too, except for some of the more compact ones. But especially SUVs and trucks.
This this is do good. Solves the issue for backend development
> The battery used to power EVs creates a lower center of gravity and the front is a storage space instead of an engine compartment. These factors can all be seen in a crash test conducted at the RELLIS Campus
There is an API at localhost:31000 and there is a hidden one-shot mode to rerun a flow if you happen to work the command line just right, so it is technically feasible to integrate with CI/CD, though all that needs proper docs before we would expect anyone to reasonably do that. It is on our roadmap though, and the lift is not high.

Regarding exporting to Javascript, seems you found the button for it. Though we like to call it a "draft of a script", as it is generated by an eager-to-please LLM, so having a real engineer give it a look over is useful. It should be enough to get you off the ground though.
In my experience higher latency due to bufferbloat occurs when my internet connection is saturated, like the example in the article of downloading a game.

However, people can still have latency issues from their ISP even if their connection isn't fully saturated at home. Bufferbloat is just one situation in which higher latency is created.

Yes, my Zoom call was terrible BECAUSE I was also downloading Diablo saturating my connection. But my Zoom call could also be terrible without anything else being downloaded if my ISP is bad or any number of other things.

As someone who worked in a large ISP, if a customer says their bandwidth is terrible but they are getting their line saturated most ISPs will test for latency issues.

Bufferbloat is one of many many reasons why someone's network might be causing them high latency.
I'm guessing that the idea is either way you wear it on your non-dominant hand, and it's easy to reach the crown with your dominant hand.
Ad professional and ad firms probably get some cut of that but that is not very relevant. The problem is that the cost for the companies and hence the consumer is up.

You can test it yourself. Try to promote your website with Google ads and you will see the insane prices they ask for. Btw you don't know if someone else is paying that number, google tells you that that is the price.
No.. I really don't know what you're on about.
When you talk about they. You are talking about an inherently imperfect ML model.

Even if it was 99.99% accurate there would still be thousands of false positives positives/negatives like you describe.
The pay is for the office location, not home location. And as a tech corp employee in NYC I have multiple coworkers commuting 2h each way 2-3 times a week (including from the Pike County area). Rural PA has become pretty popular for the 4br SFH for sub-$1M crowd
People still consider revenue = profits?
What FOSS organizations will pick up Android? Or are you talking about someone like Samsung taking up the reigns for Android?
To put the reaction into context, the individual low income threshold in that area is 105k USD [0].

Third one for macports. It's more sane, at least for multi users support (I create an user for each contract work)
Maybe. Each submission is about a different feature though. And no one has downvoted them yet. Guidelines say to do a normal submission instead of a show hn which should only happen once or twice a year. I can slow it down I guess.
MacPorts rocks. No ports breaking when upgrading MacOS as can (or could,not sure if that's still an issue) with Brew.
The overall state of cybersecurity in 2024 depends to an astonishing degree on Troy Hunt's schedule.
I would love to know if the clock is continuous drive silent, or has a tick. We had a seiko travel clock which was silent (you had to press your ear to it, and be in a quiet room to hear the motor) -every single analogue battery clock we have tried since has a tick we can hear. Bummer.

Classroom Computers, Another Legacy of Steve Jobs (2011)
I'd argue this is less akin to calling Casino Royale "007's movie" but rather if you referred to the sequel to the Godfather as "Part II's movie". I suppose this is a bit of a philosophical question of whether the index of something is the same as the thing itself, but I think I fall in the camp that things exist distinct from the way we identify them, and names are just labels rather than some inherent part of the thing itself.
>However it's a little odd to go through the intermediate step of using MakeMKV if you're just compressing the resulting remux using Handbrake.

mkv makes a very usable source file to work with.

BD and DVD are not. They need to be extracted into something usable. A good form of something usable is the mkv makemkv makes.
Because it is not strictly typed language.
Short of failure, was buy out and/or IPO with a single purchasor taking it private, or fusion with another company.

Yeah, it would be nice if these general life rules / advice could be written down somewhere with the exceptions listed. I would have appreciated getting a personalized handbook that would have given me a heads up that I was different. Given the price of WGS being low enough to be generally available I think this is something humanity could benefit a lot more from.
It has a tick, though it is very quiet. Even in silence, I rarely notice it- but of course others may. Thanks for reading!
Accessing the data is one (hackery) thing, haphazardly publishing it and not responsibly disclosing it is another (criminal) thing.
Using the term "open source" for every project published in source code form might not be ideal — not just because of the "zealots", but also because it may not serve the author’s best interests.

The term "open source" has a well-established reputation as "free as in beer", whether we like it or not. So why attach such a label to a commercial product?

Commercial software isn't inherently a bad thing. In fact, it's even better if the author or business can afford to publish it in source code form, making their services more transparent to end users.

As for the term "source available", it isn't as well-established as "open source". Its meaning may not be clear to the audience, and there's a certain lack of trust associated with it. However, this could change over time if more projects identify as "source available" and maintain clear and honest distribution and usage policies.
A good reminder to never buy a high-dollar tech product that you don't actually own because its continued functioning is dependent upon phoning home to some corporate overlord. I'm happy with my shitty old non-tech-laden car, thanks.
These are the slides that are about to be presented (or has been presented already?) by some of the TC39 committee members.

Some genuinely interesting bits about how the committee sees the entire Javascript ecosystem today and what they envision the future will (probably) look like.
a lot of extremely popular languages aren't.
But isn’t part of security realizing that there is no 100% solution? It’s all about probability. Air gapping cuts down on the number of interactions with the network at large. Lots of packet drops that will never reach it, easy to make sure the number of ports available to interact with it? I worked at places with 25 year old DOS running in a VM running multi-million dollar machines and they had never been infected with anything, probably because they are air gapped and who can “touch” them is quite limited to trained personal only.
If you are in a large company that VPNs all your traffic to one point, you can get rate limited if you visit GitHub without logging in.

If you are getting the GitHub API, the rate limit is 60 request per hour, per IP. That is easy to hit. If you send an API token, it’s 5000 requests per hour.

It's surprising how much the object dump format in listing 2,fetchmailrc resembles json. It's a useful thing to have easy data representation in the language.

Eric Raymond also became a fan of Go. In 2020 he wrote up the conversion of a project of his to Go [1].

Take-aways from using Deduce in the classroom
Apple sold to educational organizations at a discount. As a result, I had an Apple //e computer to learn UCSD Pascal in high school. Later, IBM offered an educational discount, and we had IBM PC/XT units with Turbo Pascal 3.0 to learn from. But Apple started the academic discount.

They aren’t that hard to desolder either if you have downtime and are tired of playing hearts.
I feel the same way when I implement reference counting in a C program. It's certainly clarifying and educational. I think it's hard to argue that it's the most expedient way to write a CRUD application, though. Sometimes the most expedient path isn't the most fun one.
that's an interesting theory. it would go along with the contraction of not like in don't and also in is like in that's.

is there any other non-foreign use of ' that is not such a replacement?

I would guess the root of this problem is that they aren't willing to pay.
In order to empathize it requires a mental model of how someone else thinks/feels.
Interesting, Elixir should scale far more than that. Are you doing a lot of non-io processing or computations? I run Elixir on raspberry pi 4s doing IoT and they easily handle say generatings graphs with hundred of thousands data points.

One possibility is you're using a single process instead of parallelizing things. For example, you may want to use one process per event, etc. Though if the hardware is very underpowered and say single core, I could see it becoming problematic.
Other browsers use the open source Chromium project as their base, not Chrome. If Google killed off Chrome tomorrow, those other browsers could continue using the Chromium codebase, and new maintainers could step up to manage the Chromium project. Nothing needs to change.
There's also the option of the ethical version of the $5 wrench hack--hiring the (recently unemployed) people who actually built this stuff.
This. Typically HIBP attribution includes the email of the "submitter". Various data aggregators will contact them and buy the stolen data. Everybody wins*.

They might have been licencing third party software that can't be migrated in this way due to contractual limitations.

I imagine the simplest technical solution is for the leasing company to acquire the whole business entity. That may even be what they are trying to do in court.

You may be right, but that has basically nothing to do with sidelining and firing non-Indians.
It would be great if you could elaborate on that technically. Are you saying Satoshi wasn’t running a node that day? or there were more than the two nodes? I plan to read the code tomorrow they were running and look at the debug.log and would like to understand what you are trying to say technically.
I used and loved z for years but migrated to zsh-z (https://github.com/agkozak/zsh-z) when MacOS switched the default shell and it became apparent that z wouldn’t be compatible with it.

Anyone have a view on whether I should switch from zsh-z (~2k gh stars) to Zoxide (~22k stars)?
Assuming they still have the signing keys, or knowledge of how the build servers worked… or even legal access to the source code, which would require a negotiation / lawsuit against Fisker that could take years. That’s assuming Fisker hasn’t already liquidated that material.
By arrays you mean something like this?

array set foo {
a 1
b 2
c 3
}

If the inability to comment out entries here is a problem, that's also something you can fix, you can write something like

proc decomment body {
…
}

such that you can then write the following and it will remove commented lines:

array set foo [decomment {
a 1
# b 2
c 3
}]

Just in terms of privacy, it's worth noting that anyone who has uploaded something on IA already has their email address publicly viewable.

This isn't something that commonly known (even judging by comments here) but in the publicly viewable metadata of every upload it contains the uploader's IA account email address. So from a security perspective it's bad but from a privacy perspective a lot of users probably weren't aware of this detail if they've uploaded anything.
You obviously haven't done much research on the topic. There are far, far more likely candidates, like Len Sassaman. Anyone that knew a bit about Bitcoin at the time could have made that BitcoinTalk post, it's not a "slip up".

Also, Satoshi almost certainly lived in the Benelux region when he released Bitcoin. See this paper for some actual evidence-based research: https://arxiv.org/pdf/2206.10257

This person doesn't seem to realize that the plumber was selling them a bunch of shit they didn't really need because it was a good way for them to make money. The analogue would be an engineer proposing a gold plated submarine instead of doggy paddling across the lake. This plays into the worst fears of the product manager, that you are engaging in resume driven development that benefits you, your sense of fun, and your personal growth, over what is best for the product and the company.

I respect this man for calling out the Ambani family (you may have remembered them from the extremely lavish wedding of one their sons earlier this year) for owning one of the most expensive homes ever (a luxury condo just for the family) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antilia_(building) which overlooks one of the worlds biggest slums :
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dharavi

"Tata Group former chairman Ratan Tata said Antilia is an example of rich Indians' lack of empathy for the poor.[47] Tata said, "The person who lives in there should be concerned about what he sees around him and asking how he can make a difference. If he cannot, then it's sad because this country needs people to allocate some of their enormous wealth to finding ways of mitigating the hardship that people have.[47] It makes me wonder why someone would do that. That's what revolutions are made of."[48]"

The Ambani family is so influential in india (a symptom of a very big problem in India re: extreme levels of poverty and income inequality and political corruption) that zuckerberg even bought the son a 30 million dollar wedding gift (private jet):
https://www.youtube.com/shorts/iPlzRBpo0Gg

And their wealth is brought on from very questionable means e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mukesh_Ambani#Stock_manipulati...
(not to be confused with Adani family, another indian billionaire family shrouded with corruption allegations)

Anyways, Ratan Tata life story seems to be a genuine rags to riches story without the lavish flaunting of wealth or outright corruption to obtain the wealth in the context of an extremely poor (for at least half of indians)/corrupt country.
That's a good point. Why are you not a huge fan in general though?

I think governments often to do it badly, but I think it's a muscle we (broadly speaking) should try to strengthen, not just concede that we'll never be able to do it well.

I was really frustrated by Australia's COVID app rollout, which was just done in typical government style - by throwing money at a big consulting corporation which delivered trash. But the solution isn't "give up". It's "do better". The solution to corruption in the public sector is to fight the corruption, not abandon the public sector.
We make some attempts to be human, though dedicated bot checks may well find Donobu. The things that work in Donobu's favor is that it is intended to be run locally, and so requests coming from it do not come from some giant Amazon or Google data center IP address range. Also, Donobu is not optimized for mass web scraping (it has deliberate delays included), so it does not tend to get rate limited. That all being said, there is some low hanging fruit we will be working on in order to be generally less bot-ish.
Probably most social species have this capability.
I see parallels between this comment’s points and online dating
Those are good points, but even hiring someone with knowledge as a consultant could be valuable in framing that case--knowing what you actually need is important.

If you truly believe that tech monopolists are critical to national security then the only safe option would be to nationalize them. Incidentally, that would also remove the profit motive for bad behavior, solving one of the largest problems with allowing a monopoly to exist. But apparently that would be anti-free. Because nothing says Free Country like letting a handful of the most rich and powerful people on the planet hamstring your democratic government.
My experience with fp-ts and io-ts was that we quickly got to a point where the team was divided into a small group of people usually with postgraduate CS degrees who really understood it, and then everyone else who saw it as black magic and were afraid to touch it.

Nowadays I’d rather rely on libraries that don’t require a phd to use them properly.
The most common cognitive bias people have is assuming everyone else thinks/operates like them. It's reinforced with the widespread cultural belief that everyone is basically the same.
I have a Dell Latitude 7490 (2019), bought secondhand from ebay. Works great for me, but I put Linux on it and I've been able to trim it down to only the essentials (Alpine Linux with Sway). Barely warm and the screen is 157dpi so nice enough for text.

If you're going with Windows, you can have much more recent hardware with no worry about compatibility (I'd take the Surface for the 3:2 screen ratio). But these days, I tend to use a desktop as I'm spending most of my time on my desk with a good keyboard and a nice 4k 24" screen (I ssh from the laptop when I'm on the couch).
This is ancillary to the discussion but that was a scummy plumbing company. When I became an homeowner I read up on codes and took a few classes on plumbing, electrical and HVAC. A lot of these companies take advantage of the homeowner not being knowledgeable in those areas. Sometimes these people that come over to your house are sales people and not actual tradespeople.
Cool. Good job. Will try it out.
One of the best things I've ever done. OpenWrt is so good. SQM helps a lot with latency.

We don't live in a world where every dev can choose the technology they work on.

Most of the time it is dictated by the whims of corporate(by making frameworks/tools as part of a job requirement) or by the mob(teams need to collective decide what technology to use).
