Just some rough thoughts:

Your competition is direct messages between friends and coworker mailing lists. These seem inefficient, but they have the benefit of reinforcing a relationship. If I want to find a service provider, is it easier to message all my friends and ask them to send me the info, or to message all my friends and ask them to sign up for this app, then enter the info in the app? Obviously the former is easier. So you have to somehow convince folks that proactively putting this info in one time in your app is either going to a) save them effort later, or b) make their friends more grateful to them than they otherwise would be if they just waited for a friend to ask. Personally I think b is more likely to happen, e.g. I have a great experience with a plumber in January and write it in this app (like a little journal), then my friend Alice needs a plumber in July. She doesn't think to ask me, but happens to check the app, and sees that I recommended a great one and they do a great job for her. Even though she didn't message me, I want to still feel like I did Alice a favor, but without her even having to ask. And maybe that little act of entering in the plumber will help 5 people I know over the next few years. I also want Alice to see my entering in these details as an investment into our relationship because I care about helping Alice out. Maybe I want to see "Alice saw your recommendation for plumber X" or even "Alice called plumber X" and we can talk about it next time we see each other and compare notes.

Another thing I'd wonder as a consumer running across this (rather than as a personal friend of yours) is what's the revenue model going to be. If it's not serving me ads, is it collecting my contact list and selling that instead?
this is a horrible response. just upvoting so more people can see this mess.

I used to have goals. I’m a locally-known videogame developer. Throughout my childhood and into my 20s I thought videogames would be my ‘main thing’, but at around 25 I realized I’ve fallen out of love with the gamedev process (and no longer play games as well). This created an identity crisis, and since then I haven’t found a definite path that combines both money and passion.

Music is me trying new things. I love it, but often feel I’m not “playing my cards right” since being in school has nothing to do with software development, making money, or establishing deep, fulfilling relationships in my life (I live far away from the city I grew up in.)

All in all, it feels a lot like blind faith. It feels bad, since my peers seem to have their life paths ‘figured out’ to some extent.

Stop this topic. The person who brought it up has a serious potential for discrimination. I don't know why they would say that, but to claim that the developers have mental issues under a product is, in my opinion, extremely malicious.

Interesting framing isn’t it? Customers also feel it’s “not so cool” to experience huge price rises, badly trained staff etc.

We had a similar thing in Europe during COVID with those #BeKind campaigns and signs everywhere to treat staff with respect etc.

The staff are caught in the middle, the face of the economic issues - and sometimes greed. Can’t be easy for them

And today we still have high prices, reduced staff (cost saving), QR codes (cost saving), reduced quality/quantity (cost saving) and rightly people are still annoyed. It feels like we helped repay them for lockdown, and now are continuing to do so.

Of course it’s a wider, systemic and economic issue but people are human.

And the great thing about the mysterious inflation is that each company/government can just blame another company/government round and round, so it’s nobody’s fault

I wonder how hard it is to kill a fork bomb with 192 cores running full blast.
I would imagine these tools use exploits in the existing executables to deliver the payload, and then - if I understand correctly, use scripting/interpreted languages (Python) to run the operation.

So, even if you’d need admin confirmation to run each new binary, it wouldn’t help - because no new binaries are
executed, just python with a new set of scripts.

And, correct me if I’m wrong, but preventing os from running new scripts would be virtually impossible.
Well, the context is a facility where security must be so tight that you're air-gapping computers in the first place, so a lot of the same reasons nobody would be permitted to bring their personal film-camera into the place either: You don't want to make it easy for people to take pictures of arbitrary things (faces, documents, whiteboards) and you don't want to always be searching everyone's underwear for instant-photos or film-canisters.

In contrast, a worker can sign-out a hardened device, and when they return it on the way out you can be reasonably sure they couldn't have easily made copies. Plus the scanner won't capture arbitrary pictures in the first place, and it can be set to auto-wipe after X minutes of inactivity.

If you give people 10 unexposed sheets and require them to return a total of 10 used/unused on the way out, that's susceptible to them smuggling in an unexposed sheet, and you're back to underwear searches again.
Germany spends some 70 billion euros maintaining the road system, only about a third of which is offset by taxes on drivers [1]. If we accept that investments in roads reduce carbon emissions by 0 million tonnes per year, then that works out to NaN € per tonne -- much worse than other carbon abatement methods!

Naturally there might be other positive externalities to owning a car, but I don't own a car and therefore wouldn't be privy to them. Instead I rely almost exclusively on Germany's public transport for my daily commutes, which I find perfectly satisfactory for this purpose and significantly more convenient than parking and maintaining a car.

Cell phones. Reasons seem obvious and too numerous to mention but I miss dial tones and busy signals and trying to catch someone when they are at home and within hearing of their phone's ring; knowing that every call was a sort of invasion on their personal life and not to be taken lightly. Waiting out rainstorms in a phone booth with your girlfriend making prank phone calls and chatting with the operator. The time delay on long distance phone calls and crossed lines. Never knowing who was calling or who would answer the phone and their unique ways of answering the phone which was not a reaction to who they see on the caller ID but a familial trait learned and honed and immediately identifiable. Memorizing phone numbers and using the phone book. Browsing the phone book just to see what your city had to offer or browsing it in the hotel while on vacation to see what you might do. Judging and comparing cities by the size of their phone books. Sharing a phone and its place in the household. Getting prank calls instead of spam.

Health care cost decline as people walk more compared to car transit!

Healthcare cost also decline, and people become less sick because you have to walk some amount to get to the train.
I strongly recommend checking Souffle programming language. It's a dialect of Datalog that can output bulk CSV data that can be easily imported into other databases (like Duckdb or Excel etc). It creates an extremely intuitive framework for logical programming. I.e. you can visualize logical programming as each relation being a giant table of elements, "or" operation being akin to SQL `union all`, "and" operation being akin to SQL `join`, "not" operation being akin to `outer join ... where joined isnull` etc...

I liked C3 a lot because it was the first C successor I looked at which I could understand easily and was relatively more C-like than the others. I have used that property to port various C libraries to C3 without much issue.

In Zig I had a really hard time getting productive. I found it really hard, but I really wanted to like it, I just couldn't.

I think of the sensitive, air-gapped information as an infection. If an old and “infected” machine needs upgrading then it’s easier to put a new, freshly upgraded machine into the infected area, copy the sensitive data over to the new machine, then incinerate the old one.

Anything that does come out of the infected area in-tact has to be cleaned or inspected carefully to ensure it is free of the “sensitive data” infection.
I like your taxi idea. I hate driving myself.

We could bring down the cost of the taxi by putting more people in the car, to share the cost of the driver. That'll bring the costs down significantly.

If the car is sufficiently large, we can get, say, 50 people in a car with a single driver. That should make the extra cost of the driver split between the 50 lassengers significantly cheaper.

We could go further and link multiple cars together, with a single driver up front. They will be driving on one another's slipstream vastly improving fuel efficiency which will bring down costs even further.

Imagine if we can get them to run on some sort of rail or metal track, which makes rolling resistance of the wheels basically 0. No more expensive rubber tyres that need replacing and yet again improved fuel efficiency. This will bring down the costs even further!

The common view is that women on average accomplish less (in areas which are publicized) because they are, from the moment of their birth, held back by society, or at least not encouraged to excel in any visible fields of endeavor. Logically, I would assume that this applies less to trans women, depending on their age at transition, and also whether they “pass” or not. Therefore, accomplishments by trans women should maybe not be seen as being as inspiring as should similar accomplishments made by people who were treated as women from birth.

(Similarly, I would therefore logically assume that accomplishments by trans men are treated as less inspiring than they maybe ought to be, since, compared to non-trans men, trans men accomplished things despite having lived through more years of society treating them as women.)

Of course, this focus on men/women/trans is diverting us all from the topic at hand, which is cool Minecraft stuff.

I'm not a latex expert. I don't know what the difference is between tex math, latex math and amsmath is. (And please don't explain it, I don't care.) Maybe there are some weird expressions out there that don't have a typst equivalent, if we really looked for them. But I haven't run into anything myself, despite writing a pretty math-heavy CS paper. (Or at least, the early drafts were math heavy.)

> I'm not interested in a programming language (though naturally being able to write plugins would be useful ala luatex), but a textual macro system.

Are you sure? Because latex macros like that are really horrible to read & write, and latex gives you notoriously hard to read error messages for your trouble. Here's the equivalent in typst:

#let dt(x) = $(∂#x) / (∂t)$

In my opinion, this is way more readable. That code defines a lambda function (like arrow functions in javascript) that returns a "math mode" block ($this is a math block$). #x escapes the math block to evaluate x - which is just the function parameter we defined earlier.

And you'd use it simply:

The result is $dt(y)$

Its not a macro system. Its just a function that you can call anywhere - including from other functions. And the function returns a block. I personally think its much nicer, and more familiar than the latex macro equivalent.
Ooh, very interesting! I produce lots of reports using Jupyter and nbconvert. I have a custom nbconvert template (which uses pandoc+jinja+latex under the hood).

I find the whole system to be a bit house-of-cards and I’d love to try alternatives. What’s your workflow for using Typst with Jupyter?

I'm using Markdown/LaTex to PDF/HTML converter for preparing various legal/rules documents. While this approach works for very simple documents, whenever I needed simple change (i.e. specific list numbering or break the page for chapters) the path to find the solution was long and painful.

Typst was a breath of fresh air, and I'm moving all my document generators to it and don't look back.

The only thing I miss at the moment is generation of HTML (in addition to PDF). It's possible to achieve via Typst+Pandoc I guess, but would be great to have it as an output target natively.
As a Swede I always found it interesting we were one of the few countries which do not flouridate tap water.

Also this part from the reply before editing it away:

They get mad that my repo and code is better than their's and they published they paper, they feel entitled even though I reproduced the entire paper based on 4 phrases, dfs, bfs (search algos), generate solutions, and generate thoughts and this is it. I didn't even read the full paper when I first started to implement it.
The reason they want people to unstar my repo is because they are jealous that they made a mistake by not sharing the code when they published the paper as real scientists would do. If you do not publish your code as a AI research scientists you are a heretic, as your work cannot be tried and tested.
and the code works amazingly much better than theirs, I looked at their code and couldn't figure out how to run it for hours, as well as other people have reported the same.
the motivations are jealously, self hatred, guilt, envy, inferiority complex, ego, and much more psychographic principles.
how do they even measure a half centimetre accuracy?
Caller ID. As implemented, it isn't fit for purpose. I'd want something real, enforced, regulated.

IMessage/whatsapp/telegram/signal/rcs should all be pure gui on XMPP and fully open protocol with trust anchor mutuality, so it's one namespace to talk to everyone.
It might be more intuitive if this was the first travel app every developed. But I don't personally any other transit UI that uses this pattern, and that makes using the sncf search "the weird one" and not in a good way.
