The Atari 800XL – By Paul Lefebvre
Are Group Opportunities a Thing in Tech Hiring?
In my 15 years of working, I’ve often seen discussions on the importance of building great teams, but what about teams that stick together across opportunities? Over time, a core group of us has naturally formed—one of those groups that tends to move from job to job together. Started with two 15 years ago but we're up to about four or five with the last two missions. We're just people that work very well together and have found a great rhythm. We’ve taken on a big challenge/stepped into a obvious trap a few years ago: transforming a more traditional company into a tech company.

I’ve decided it’s time to at least start looking at some opportunities, but there’s nothing on the horizon in my network at the moment.

What strikes me as curious is that while recruitment and opportunities is a normal subject on platforms like Hacker News, I don't think I've ever seen discussions or even comments about entire teams looking to move together. I also don't know any other groups larger than maybe two co-founders that constantly move together.

Aside from the obvious scenario of acquisition, is this just not a thing? Does anyone have experience with group opportunities, or is it simply too custom, or even not feasible for most?
In 2000, Java was still about doing dancing applets, businesses only started taking Java marketing seriously after two things happened, Hotspot became a thing, making it more appealing than C++ for cross-platform server code, versus dealing with the mess of writing portable C++ code when most compilers were a mix of C++ARM and catching up to C++98, with C++ compiler specific frameworks being heavily used.

The second one was Sun's Distributed Objects Everywhere project being canceled, and the Objective-C code being reborn into the first J2EE proposal.

There was nothing else like that for business software other than Smalltalk and later .NET, however most Java vendors were ex-Smalltalkers, and in 2001 .NET was a no-go for anyone that would care about supporting UNIX deployments as well.

In 2001, we were moving away from scripting + write extensions into C, into Java, and only pivoted into .NET because being a MSFT partner with access to the "partner eyes only" betas from Microsft before .NET was announced, additionally there was some ideas to move away from UNIX customers.

However by 2006, while at Nokia Networks, a strong UNIX shop back then, the large majority of their applications were going into the Rewrite into Java phase.

Hmm, could do with a brand-mastodon, and hey as I think about it why not a brand-hn? (Is hn even a brand? Idk... there's the Y logo?)
I'm struggling to see how you can be so calm about what you just said. To me, the idea of a system that works 99% of the time and doesn't work 1% of the time is utterly terrifying, far more so than a system that works only 50% of the time. 1% is small enough for a human operator to become complacent, but still many orders of magnitude greater than an acceptable risk factor. It seems like exactly the sweet spot that's going to maximise loss of life.
I disagree. One is a huge step towards neural interfaces and the other is a big leap forward for the environment.
I'm curious about the autoreleasepool. What's the reason to have it and how much of a difference does it make?
I imagine this means you can use individual icons in your app as you see fit, but you can't just embed the whole lot in a competing UI library.
Thanks! Glad you like it!

A few years ago, I started learning icon design and began a private collection, which eventually turned into this.

I build a lot of websites and design custom icons for them, so having my own icon pack seemed to make the most sense.

Yes, I plan to make more icons, already have dozens in the backlog.

This icon pack complements MynaUI Pro itself. As I add more components to it, I'll include more relevant icons here.
I definitely didn't forget the hamsters :) Maybe crtl+f didn't work correctly?

Here's Lovelock's original paper if you're curious: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1365902/pdf/jph...
Trivia: at least in some BASICs (QBasic, QuickBasic, FreeBASIC) it's not necessary for every GOSUB to be matched with a RETURN, since the GOSUB is a single 'call' instruction that pushes onto the stack (and RETURN is a single 'ret' instruction, hence GOSUB-RETURN is highly efficient!) so it gets removed when you exit the function if you didn't RETURN, like alloca(). I actually re-implemented GOSUB this way using macros and inline assembly. I called it GOSUB/RETRACE.

Find new professionals when that happens. There are plenty of professionals that understand that not everyone is willing to just do whatever without more understanding and are happy to explain further when questioned.
Even if they solve most of the technical issues could this ever be competitive with planes/ships/trucks? Under what circumstances?

It just doesn't seem very practical, basically you'd need to transport freight to places with no access to sea/roads or rails and can't fit it on an airplane. Is there a lot of demand for this? Also presumably such areas would have harsh and unpredictable weather..

Forscape – A Language and Editor for Scientific Computation
Hi, thanks! Currently I've created a small plugin that replaces the download URL of products with a post meta `use_external_url`, appends the `order_id`, and signs it using HMAC. Then I have a CF worker that reads that, validates the signature and stamps the PDF file with the order number, on the fly, after the user clicks to download the file. (I tried some of available plugins but they sucked).

Also, I'd like to have more flexible bundles (possibly bundles of bundles), a more flexible transaction e-mail that offers upsells right after the user buys something, for instance: the user bought the Foo Vol. 1, right after I want to send an email offering a coupon so that they can get the discounted Vol 1, 2, and 3 with the amount they just paid discounted. (I can do that with Mailpoet or Omnisend if they buy just one product, or can implement multiple discounts and upsells with a little bit of JS running on my Windmill instance + Resend).

I feel like I'm going to re-invent a lot of stuff, and since I'm using Stripe, it shouldn't be so hard to think of a nice Products/Bundles/Downloadables/Gallery DB design and ship something ultra light that I can actually understand vs the million lines that a default WP + Woo install has, plus themes and plugins.
Or just overbuild your generation sources?
That's a problem for the company, not the security of the Internet. Why do the PKI people take it upon themselves to increase the problems for these companies in order to force them to automate processes?

>Before SpaceX started to do it, the concept of iterating to that degree on rockets was unthinkable.

I'm pretty sure that was what NASA was going to do all the way back in the 70s before their funding got slashed. It was a novel idea but not a novel idea that SpaceX was particularly responsible for, just one they threw capital at because the government stopped caring after the space race.

Nuclear power research, by contrast, never really suffered from a lack of available funds. They were throwing money at mini reactors back in the 90s, saying all the same stuff about how mass production would bring down the price.
I've been experimenting with taking this self-description paradigm even farther, for a file format I've cooked up for ephemeral data in my search engine.

Basically, since I ended up building a custom library for this, I wanted to solve the portability problem by making it stupidly simple to reverse engineer, so I cooked up a convention where each column (and supporting column) is a file, with a file name that describes its format and role.

So a real-world production table looks like this if you ls in the directory (omitting a few columns for brevity):

combinedId.0.dat.s64le.bin
documentMeta.0.dat.s64le.bin
features.0.dat.s32le.bin
size.0.dat.s32le.bin
termIds.0.dat-len.varint.bin
termIds.0.dat.s64le[].zstd
termMetadata.0.dat-len.varint.bin
termMetadata.0.dat.s8[].zstd

The design goal is that just based on an ls output, someone who has never seen the code of the library producing the files should be able to trivially write code that reads it.
Didn't you hear? Horrendously expensive makes it _better_.

I miss simplicity.

And I could argue that lower prices implies money is made somewhere else. Like how Cloudflare infested half the internet with their free MITM.

But, ye, I should chill a bit on topics like these. I have hard time not ending up in a 'Google etc. is coming for me' rant.

Thank you! It would be really helpful if you could let me know exactly what made it so engaging. That insight will definitely help us improve further.
Oh yes! I missed it, sorry.
Thanks for the link. The benchmark results aren't too impressive for its size but it likely hasn't been trained as thoroughly as llama (I couldn't find the training size in the paper but I doubt they have access to as much compute as Meta) so it still feels encouraging that it doesn't look ridiculous either.
You misunderstand my fears. I'm not fearful of Nuclear power, I'm fearful of VCs and by extension the kind of behavior they encourage.

Aviation is, as you pointed out, heavily regulated, yet that didn't stop the profit-seeking vultures from causing the Boeing-MAX fiasco. There are countless instances of private equity ruining everything they touch while covering things up to avoid repercussions for getting caught (if they ever even come), what makes you so sure this time it's going to be different?
Sorry, that sounds pretty unlucky. Are you taking any steps to spot these kinds of companies before you agree to work for them? (Or are you happy to work in a well-run pocked of an otherwise not so great company?)
Something else entirely. Similar to an LLM, V12 of FSD is trained on on tens of millions of clips of people driving. The model takes in the history of frames over some period of time and spits out a path for the car to take, conditioned on the route from the regular route planner. As with LLMs, this approach has the benefit that it scales well according to a set scaling law: add more data, add more training and inference compute and your model will get predictably better. Tesla has the ability to sample driving behavior from almost any of its 6+ million cars world wide, based on certain triggers. The video (usually 30 seconds long) is uploaded to Tesla along with the actions that the human driver took during that time. Training a model like this is called Imitation Learning, or Behavior Cloning, and it's all the rage in robotics right now. But Tesla also has direct intervention data from its 0.5m users running FSD. Whenever a user intervenes (by disengaging the system through the steering wheel or brake, or by pressing the gas), the clip gets sent back. Tesla can then train on this clip directly to correct bad behavior, this is called Expert Intervention Learning, and it's mathematically proved to fix certain problems with raw Behavior Cloning.
If you are a car repair shop, it would be fairly difficult if you could not name the brand of cars that you support. If you call yourself "Ford Repairs" you might get into trouble, but saying that you can change oil on a Fords seems fairly clear as to be permitted under fair use.

From what I see it seems a fairly common practice that companies get explicit trademark permissions if they are an official retailer, official supplier, have employees that is official trained, or has some other direct relationship with the trademark holder. Companies without such permissions have to rely on fair use rules. Retailers and webshops generally also list what product or brands that they sell without being in conflict with trademark.
There has been no increase in air turbulence accidents per passenger mile over the past 30 years despite a quadrupling of air traffic (so more chances to encounter turbulence).

Looks similar to KDE icons. Minimalistic should scale very well.
To be clear, what I mean by realtime is full gen under at most 200ms so it can be sent to the sound card and start playing, not generating under the amount of time it would take to play it, which would add that as an unusably long delay in practice.

I suppose it might be possible to do it with streaming very short segments, but I haven't seen any implementation with it that would allow for that, and with diffusion based models it doesn't even work conceptually either.

You lost at "European" and "everywhere in EU". The system is different between countries. For example Poland covers free annual review and basic procedures. (even if it's worse quality than on a private insurance) You're just trolling or really misinformed.
On the other hand, even weak DRM trains users to accept it while power users are less likely to rally against it if they can find workarounds for themselves. So you don't really end up delaying the implementation of good DRM but helping prime its acceptance.
I believe it depends on the salt used and why a lot of research is looking at fluorine - floride salts don't dissolve in water and thus don't have the same risks. Another MSR design seeing a lot of attention is SSR which similarly doesn't use any chemically reactive materials. SSR is also interesting from a cost perspective as it's projected to cost half of a modern coal power station and almost a third that of a modern large scale nuclear construction putting it in line with solar plants that don't have batteries (i.e. much more cost effective).
This is brilliant. Thanks for the laugh.

They certainly do. Those Mercedes don’t have all the cameras and sensors and are not recording it all and sending it back to HQ.

For the newer cars that do there was an awesome post on HN from someone who consulted with them and they had a single server at HQ with a single thread to capture all this data.
They had no idea why it wasn’t working.
Think of what TRON would do with that.
>Graham says that the CSIRO modelling showed that at very high levels of wind and solar, a maximum of half a day’s average demand was needed for storage. In some areas of the grid, only around three hours might be needed.

https://reneweconomy.com.au/much-storage-needed-solar-wind-p...

Sadly, there's far, far, far too much FUD floating around about storage (understandably, coz wind+solar threatens the nuclear+carbon lobbies), and not enough thorough and realistic studies like this one.

I've heard people say "oh you cant pay attention to this study because it's in Australia which must be discounted because [reasons], what about [ other country ]?", and I'd welcome seeing an alternative study making appropriate assumptions, but none of these comments so far come attached to anything other than FUD.

I've also seen far, far too many people build or cite a "naive" models that make inappropriate assumptions (e.g. that zero power is generated at night by wind).
I don't use it myself, and probably never will - but it stands to reason that it brings joy/comfort/some sort of advantage to the people who do.
"Testability" to me sounds like a type of "justified" - I can be justified for many reasons, and testability is just one of those. But there are reasons where I might be justified but where testability is impossible.

For example, if I toss a coin and it comes up heads, put the coin in my pocket and then go about my day, and later on say to somebody "I tossed a coin earlier, and it came up heads", that is a JTB, but it's not testable. You might assume I'm lying, but we're not talking about whether you have a JTB in whether I tossed a heads or not, we're talking about if I have one.

There are many areas of human experience where JTB is about as good as we are going to get, and testability is off-limits. If somebody tells me they saw an alien climb out of a UFO last night, I have lots of reasons to not believe them, but if this a very trustworthy individual who has never lied to me about anything in my decades of experience of knowing them, I might have a JTB that they think this is true, even if it isn't. But none of it is testable.

Physics - the scientific method as a whole - is a superb way to think about and understand huge swathes of the World, but it has mathematically proven limits, and that's fine, but let's not assume that just because something isn't testable it can't be true.
If you are interested in using this then I can also highly recommend webapp manager.

You can request icons here: https://github.com/praveenjuge/mynaui-icons/issues/new/choos...

But I do wonder if LLM can create SVG icons if we give it some good samples
Do open source licences apply to SVGs? They are technically icon written in code.

I may be a bit naive, as it just occurred to me.

Court isn't the place for scientific inquiry into these issues. It's just not setup for it. French courts have also found in favor of "electrosensitivity" issues.
The transition will probably be gradual, following the natural gas production that is expected to peak and then decline in the next decade(s).

Kids these days have much worse computer skills BECAUSE of the locked up platforms they are exposed to from a young age. Meanwhile two decades ago my non-technical grandpa learned to use a real PC just fine in his old age. Don't underestimate regular users ability to deal with technology when there is a will.
While Frances debt to GDP as a single country has reached above that threshold, the driver of statism is the primary currency they use, and they pooled their primary currency with the eurozone (i.e. the euro), and the aggregated country debt ratio for the Euro is still only around 88% largely because they have tied it indirectly to the USD.

Still though, you see high concentration, loss of jobs, high unemployment, all classic signs often seen in socialist states right before major calamity or outright failure.

I'd say though the France won't have gotten to non-market socialism until their primary underlying currency hits those milestones, but they will see the chaos much sooner when the shoe does drop.
I’d love it if the browser had the ability to suggest similar icons. I used an internal library that had this and it was super useful and often led to a better visual to express an idea.
What do you do without the set? Draw your own, or mash a couple of the existing ones together, in your preferred editor.

I keep thinking of making my own set of icons that are composable. I see a lot of sets where there are individual icons for “folder”, “folder with +”, “folder with -”, “folder with gear”, and so on, sometimes both with the added in internal space or an overlay to the bottom right, with each being separately designed. It strikes me that defining folder, +, -, <gar>, … then being able to ask for folder-with-gear-inside or <anything>-with-small-<anything>-overlaying-bottom-right. You wouldn't want it all don dynamically of course, so some heavy caching or compiling to a sprite-set would be needed for efficiency.
