Hyundai might have some great EV offerings that are cheaper, but Rivian does not have anything even close in terms of price, unless you only consider Plaid models. You can get a used model 3 for $20k now, which is good value if you put aside politics & CEO.
Do it.

This is how good day jobs happen.

And this is just a day job.

You can always get another day job.

Good luck.
When I saw youtubers pushing the "free browser extension" and yet Honey being valued at $4billion, I of course figured there was something fishy about it. However, I thought it was just about scraping user behavior / marketing / tracking. This is wild that PayPal became directly complicit in affiliate fraud.
You want someone to teach you the difference, but what you desire is for no one to be able to point out a single difference to you.

I had to try :/
Probably worth noting that the people who throw around “woke” as a pejorative also tend to be the ones calling people they disagree with “NPCs.”
Norm | New York City (NYC) Hybrid | Full-Stack Product Engineer | Full-Time | https://www.norm.ai

Norm is building AI that understands regulations for regulatory compliance. Our AI currently automates compliance determinations for federally regulated financial content, though our vision is to build a platform that can handle any regulation in any industry. As AI begins to permeate our society, Norm aims to become a critical building block for other AI systems that need regulatory intelligence. You can read more about our vision here: https://www.norm.ai/post/building-regulatory-ai-agents

We recently raised a $27m series A (on top of a $11m seed). We're growing very quickly and have major, household-name financial institutions as clients and investors. We're working on hard, interesting problems and want to push the boundaries of what's possible for AI-driven products. We're hiring for technical roles, including:

Full-Stack Product Engineer ($200-225k/yr): https://jobs.lever.co/NormAI/b71ce742-7b52-468b-9f1c-dd00210...

Legal Engineer ($175-225k): https://jobs.lever.co/NormAI/7cb40761-ef33-42a5-8831-d153632...

We're also hiring for many non-technical roles as well. The best way to apply is online through the links above (we review every application!) -- mention HN Who's Hiring in the additional information / cover letter section. Full list here: https://www.norm.ai/careers.
The founders sold 5 years ago to PayPal. Do they just get to laugh on their way to the bank? Probably.
I don't think so.

At least from my personal experiences I know of at least a dozen sales that 3 years ago they would have made hands now. People compromise and buy what are clearly worse cars to avoid the Tesla brand. A friend just brought an ioniq a few months ago, same friend who was salivating over our Tesla a few years ago and kept talking about buying one endlessly. Guess why they didn't buy one..

Heck. I'm one of those people. We were customers for life. But my wife who loves our Tesla won't agree to ever buy one again. So we're back to VW. Yay...

I wish they would get rid of Musk. It would be nice if Tesla was just a car company.
Anti-cheats are already detecting DMA devices like this.
I don't think most people will heed this warning. I warned people in a programming forum that Python ordering of objects by insertion time was a implementation detail, because it's not guaranteed by any PEP [0]. I could literally write a PEP compliant Python interpreter and could blow up in someone's code because they rely on the CPython interpreter behavior.

This is an India based junior eng role. We pay top tier in India.
BYD is continuing what Tesla started: getting cheaper while scaling up battery and car production.

The market is there for worse and much cheaper electric cars, just not mainly in US.

Ah shit, here we go again..
I don't know why anyone here has the idea that I'm arguing that exercise alone is key for weight loss. I have very clearly only claimed that all else equal increasing exertion will lead to a calorie deficit.

> While you're right that exercise can help on the margin, it's just not a useful intervention that moves the needle much as far as weight loss goes.

There's more to exercise than just the thermodynamic effects of calorie expenditure. Building muscle and/or cardiovascular capacity will improve your quality of life and will complement any weight loss. You can improve your mental health by becoming more physically active, and this is well established. Those mental health gains and physical health improvements make it easier to maintain a better diet. Beyond the marginal, but significant calorie expenditures you can create a positive feedback loop.
I'm just translating why that person (nine_k) feels that any voice interface is non-private. It's not how I feel
Hey, author here. Pleasure to work on this article. I'd welcome strong opinions :-)
The problem is that these LLM responses, even if they're browsing the web to get data, are accumulated from random blog posts instead of the official AWS docs. If they're not browsing the web then it's giving you outdated data it was pre-trained on.
Types and editor tooling IMO. Both places they're making investments, but both areas where I feel like I'm giving up a lot of power, even though it's admittedly to GET a lot of power.
An Interesting Shortcut
This is a great job ad - are they hiring?
Worth the read just for the delightful Gift Note from your brother. LOL.
Why can't people just run businesses decently without deception & scams?

I'm sure they can be profitable.

This deceptive behaviour actually makes the business loose customers in the long term.

Sounds like they replace the ads with their own, paying you (and surely taking their cut). Sounds a lot like Brave Rewards, similar thing...
This comment makes no sense. Musk is one of the, if not most, powerful people in the world. He's also the richest person and owns one of the main propagandist machines out there. Public sentiment is skewed negatively by his own words and obvious selfish hypocrisy. For example, "free speech" has become a running joke at this point.
Datalab | NYC | Full-time | Software Engineer and Head of Business Ops | $250k-$350k + 1.5-3% equity | https://www.datalab.to

A significant % of useful data is locked away in tough-to-parse formats like PDFs. We build tools to extract it, like https://github.com/VikParuchuri/surya (15k Github stars), and https://github.com/VikParuchuri/marker (19k stars). We also run an inference API and product.

We do meaningful research (we’ve trained several SoTA models), ship product, and contribute to open source. We’re hiring for 2 roles to help us scale:

Senior fullstack software engineer

- work across our open source repos, inference api, and frontend product
- interact with our user community
- you’ll need to be pragmatic, and embrace “boring” technology. Our stack is fastapi, pytorch, htmx, postgres, and redis. We deploy to render, and do inference with serverless gpus.
- requires having built something impressive, ideally an open source project

Head of business operations

- first non-technical hire
- work across multiple areas, including finance, hiring, and sales
- you’ll need to be extremely organized and able to get a lot done
- requires experience leading operations at an early stage

Email careers@datalab.to if you’re interested - include a link to something you’ve built if possible. You can also read more here - https://datalab-to.notion.site/careers-jan .
I personally agree with your stance, but was simply interpreting what nine_k expressed so everyone else could understand their perspective.

Launching Satori CI: perform automatic testing of software and systems
Hello,

We are launching Satori CI: a language, a tool and a platform that automatically executes and asserts software and system behaviors.

It operates both locally (e.g., running from your computer or from GitHub Actions) and in the cloud (launching it remotely or with our GitHub App), using containers that are destroyed upon completion. You can also run it on demand, as part of CI/CD processes, or at a specified frequency.

Our goal is to help the community build secure code and resilient systems capable of handling both expected and unexpected inputs. Our playbooks are public and can be defined to be executed at the organization layer by default. We are starting our public journey giving users the possibility of setting up their accounts for free Pro accounts to have a chance to test it out.

If you have any questions of feedback for us, we would love to know. Here is our first official blog post: https://satori.ci/introducing-satori-ci/ that includes a tutorial to set it up.
To elaborate.. I prefer ChatGPT precisely because "SEO" is not (yet) a thing there. Hopefully ChatGPT will stay SEO-resistant and won't rely on those tricks when providing tools that are _really_ what the user wants..
We're at the tipping point where average users cannot tell the difference between AI generated and human content. It's already very evident on Facebook and Threads, just spend a few minutes on either platform, you'll find a post with an AI generated image or video and tons of human engagement supporting it.
The bad pushes out the good until you’re only left with bad.

A system that tolerates bad actors like this will in time only have bad actors. It’s tolerated because it makes a large amount of money for a small number of people.
That was an incredible read, a real-life Dr. House episode. And very exciting technology, too. Thanks for sharing.
Tandem Health | Software Engineers | On-site in Stockholm, Sweden | Full time

At Tandem Health we're building a clinician copilot to allow clinicians to focus on care rather than administration. We’re building, launching and iterating quickly, and already have more than ~100~ 200 organizations using our product.

Our core product listens in to the patient-clinician encounter to generate medical records, allowing clinicians to save 5-10 minutes per patient. No longer do clinicians have to catch up on administration after hours. Some even tell us that their partners notice they're much more relaxed after starting to use our product, and we couldn't be happier :)

We’re expanding our Stockholm team with exceptional engineers! We use Python (backend), TypeScript/React (frontend) and C# (Windows app) and our infrastructure runs on Kubernetes in Azure.

Even if we don’t have a role out for your specific skill set, we’d love to talk! Our tech team is small but growing and you’ll have an outsized impact on an important problem.

Feel free to reach out to john.moberg@tandemhealth.ai if you have any questions
Does it matter for an informational site? HTTP is quicker and doesn't expire certs etc.

Of course, agree, it's totally needed for anything with a login or downloads etc, but serious question, what's the risk/benefit tradeoff here?

> Is grinding code at a FAANG really that different?

On paper, code is code. In reality, grinding code at a FAANG has a lot more "performance anxiety" and is generally more competitive, and likely worse mental health but pays way more. YMMV by company, vertical, team and manager.
You've posted in the wrong thread.

> They all sound like english to me...

it just sounds wrong if you know the difference. Imagine you are watching something like that and a character shows up supposedly speaking your native language, but actually speaking another language that sounds vaguely similar.

> Let's take this opportunity to remind them designers that there are things like contrast and readability,

Many years ago I worked for a website aimed at people of, or approaching retirement age. The designers initially used small grey text on a white background.
The DRM doesn’t really make pirating any more inconvenient for the (pirate) consumers (they get e.g. an MKV file without any of it). If there was no DRM on the legal platforms, it would be easier for pirates to release new stuff, but just marginally so.

If there was no DRM, ordinary viewers would still choose Netflix over torrents, and perhaps some more tech-savvy users would choose it as well (since many do want to support film makers, but are opposed to DRM). It would still be as hard to create a “pirate Netflix” as it is now, because of legal threats and because it’s tricky to monetize it.

DRM literally serves no purpose outside of some corporate politics bullshit.
This is the one worth watching, it’s a total scam and PayPal is fine with it apparently.
Note how one opinion provides the warrant for the other.
> they understand how politics works (divides people)

More than that: it's human nature to identify lines of disagreement when observing within your in group. You and I might agree on 99 things, but we will suss out–with preternatural efficiency–the one we disagree on. (Again, if we identify as being in the same group. Travel to a foreign country and you'll notice similarities.)

Taking public positions on anything tends to leave some people happy, most people uninterested and a lot of people furious. It's why experienced politicians tend to have a few drums they beat--the ones who are undiscplined get weeded out. Musk takes a position on everything.
A country targeted in an ongoing hybrid war by the world's #1 superpower would have a (relatively) extreme response to a pandemic that originated in an epidemiologically interesting location deep in their inland territory, and that extreme response having any substantial national security impetuous is "batshit insane". Insightful contribution!

A big country would never overreact to national security threats. We have the TSA to protect us from that :)
ChatGPT is really good at writing Arduino code. I say this because with Ruby it's so incredible bad that the majority of examples don't work, even short samples are to hallucinated to actually work. It's so bad I didn't even understand what people mean with using AI to code until I tried a different language.

However on Arduino it's amazing, until the day it forgot to add a initializing method. I didn't notice and neither did she. We've talked about possible issues for at least a hour, I switched hardware, she reiterated every line of the code. When I found the error she said, "oh yes! That's right. (Proceeding with why that method is essential for it to work)" that was so disrespecting in a way that I am still somewhat disappointed and pissed.
>nobody would go for the worse quality, right?

people who cannot afford to go for the better quality would, in fact where Smart phones are concerned I think it is commonly considered that for most metrics iPhone is better and people often buy Android because they cannot afford iPhone (of course except for specific subsets of HN who will not buy Apple for various social/cultural reasons)
This plagued a lot of remote workers when the trend started due to ping latency causing terrible VC quality like delayed speech , dropped frames, out-of-order frames . Very frustrating.
But none in the US and only very few in the EU.
A not insignificant part of human history is retelling the same stories. Stories like the Odyssey and the Iliad were oral traditions refined, refined, and refined, until taken down by a master. Every time Dracula and derivatives get made, something new gets added, changed, improved.

The problem with Disney's remakes is that they are trying to be the original story, reshot, but LESS Disney. The Little Mermaid is a prime example of something that should have been brighter, more colorful, more energetic, more beautiful, and IMPROVED, but instead they chose a least common denominator impersonation.

The concept of going back and retelling a prequel can work. It worked for Rogue One (despite production challenges), it worked for Wicked. What isn't working for the Disney Live Action movies is letting the machine output reduced facsimiles, instead of giving the projects to experimental storytellers, or master storytellers to do their thing.

Id love to see a remake of Bambi that amplified the music/animation connection, using modern technology to sync the movement of elements in the frame to parts of the musical composition, much like a visualizer. Breathing, fluttering, raindrops falling on the beats, quivering with the strings. Imagine a modern Little April Showers by Atticus Ross that looks like Spiderm-Man into the Spiderverse or Puss in Boots 3 or Wild Robot or Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem. Bambi should be a music video like Fantasia. Instead Disney will try and tell a story about a Deer, and forget the rest of what made Bambi so revolutionary.

And yet, Disney still does make things like Soul, which really was innovative in its animation style by how restrained it was. It's simple complexity of its dream world was its strength. Animation can be done well without the hyper speed over indulgences I cited above as good examples.
I interpreted this as a parody for this reason.
If you use HTTP you can have middlemen hijacking your content or inserting malicious things and nobody would know. There's all kinds of weird actors out there.
> But while I see them as real computers, they aren’t any that I enjoy using, so I care relatively little for them.

If you/people were brutally willing to crack them open, the "enjoyability" of using them for "hacker-minded people" could be improved insanely.
Clojure/Script and JavaScript/TypeScript dev with 25 years of experience. I've built high performance 2d game engines, 2 poker clients and quite a few MVC frameworks. I like functional techniques, react/redux, react hooks, clojurescript.

Location: Sweden

Remote: Preferred

Relocate: No, but prepared to commute to Stockholm

Technologies: JavaScript/ClojureScript, React/redux or hooks. Comfortable with all web tech.

Oh yes, cool fun projects, not (only) buttoned-up necktie-wearing moneymaking projects. Cool fun projects have a higher chance to discover some new gold (among reams and heaps of underbaked fluff, of course), while strictly-moneymaking projects quite rationally choose to play it safe and only use time-proven stuff.
