I've kind of inadvertently gone down a rabbit hole for different types of electronic music already, because at a previous job the guy who was in charge of playing music was really big into it, and he played a pretty broad spectrum of stuff.

I liked some stuff more than others, but never really clicked with any of it.

Just to be clear, not claiming that the stuff I listen to is "objectively" better or anything. 90+% of what I listen to is garage-punk stuff like NOFX or Misfits, which is its own kind of trash. It's just jived better for me (doesn't hurt that I was exposed to it much younger).

I don't regret moving to NYC, when I did it was probably an economically-ok decision; a lot more high-paying tech jobs here than in Dallas (where I lived before), and there are parts I still like about it, but there were definitely other parts that I was lying to myself about for a long time.

Though I will admit, I think a good chunk of that is that I've just been here too long. I probably should move... I just need to convince my employer to let me go full-remote.
OK so you're actually right, but the actual criteria of "whether you can do this" depends on a lot of factors from the project to the people.

But there's no way to really describe it. It's like explaining to somehow how to parallel park or do a kickflip... you can only explain it so much.

I like to say "it should be usable in production soon" because it's generally a good approximation that takes into account what you might have to work with. It's an upgrade from advice like Joel's who just say "IT NEVER WORKS"
It does? What happens if you don’t show up for a month? Or just keep it open once a week? As long as you remember to clear out the fridge every now and then, you should be fine :)

This is exactly right. It's only creepy if you're creepy.

There is always someone looking to vibe with a positive-energy person they met that night. Sometimes it leads to more and sometimes you just dance all night, give a big hug, and never see each other again.
Using that name specifically has a bit of a different connotation than a generic one with no previous association like "Brian Krebs", though. If anything, it would be _more_ surprising to find out that someone going by the name Tyler Durden was just a single, regular person rather than something else going on.

Architect – Rethinking Spot Instances by Solving the Preemption Problem
Hey HN! We've built a system that lets you run any application on spot instances without worrying about preemption. It works by running VMs on top of VMs - without the need for nested virtualization or hardware acceleration support - by integrating our open-source projects: Drafter (https://github.com/loopholelabs/drafter - handles VM live migration), PVM (https://github.com/loopholelabs/linux-pvm-ci - enables nested virtualization without hardware support), and Silo (https://github.com/loopholelabs/silo - provides efficient live storage migration over the public internet). The cool part is that we can migrate workloads between spot instances faster than they get preempted, with no dropped connections - even across different cloud providers and regions.

While there are other solutions that try to handle spot instance preemption through checkpointing, we take a fundamentally different approach by making preemption irrelevant through continuous state capture and seamless migration. We showed this off at KubeCon NA 2024 by migrating a Redis pod between AWS, GCP, and Azure while maintaining active client connections.

All core components are open source, including our Firecracker patches (https://github.com/loopholelabs/firecracker/tree/main-live-m...). We're currently in the process of launching with GitHub Actions runners that can safely run on spot instances (which are 75%+ cheaper!) without risk of interruption, even for long-running builds and stateful workloads at https://architect.run/.

More info in the linked blog post! Would love to hear your thoughts and feedback on the technical implementation and potential use cases.
Of course not, but I'm open to the idea that they should be able to escalate to someone who can. This is a transitional period with self-driving cars, and it helps to mitigate serious potential safety issues.

Ideally, in the future you would have to expressly press some button to send an OTP to someone you wanted to allow to control your car, with fine-grained permissions.

Will that future happen? Probably not, and we'll probably see extreme corpgov oversight and mass reduction in individual freedom in return for convenience.

Anyway, I was only responding to OP's claim that support for remote access capabilities could lead to an exploit: There's already remote access capabilities in these cars.

It's unfortunate but at the end of the day they're just video games. They aren't worth sacrificing computer freedom over. We shouldn't end up becoming serfs in the digital fiefdoms of corporations just because people want to play online video games. These companies need to give up and let us play these things on our terms.

I'd sooner see multiplayer games disappear than accept this sad state of affairs where our computers come pwned straight off the factory in order to please the so called stakeholders by denying us the freedom to do things that hurt their interests. That's a far more damaging outcome than silly video games becoming unplayable. Cheaters are a small price to pay for freedom and I pay it gladly.

Besides, some games should be hurt. Plenty of "free" games out there employing literal gambling and drug dealer tactics to get people addicted to their product. Cheaters are doing us all a huge favor by speeding up their demise.
This exactly. I've been to "raves", they were just giant parties with $3 beers in an abandoned or semi-legal building somewhere in Brooklyn. I was surprised when I started hearing people call giant corporate venues with dancing "raves".

I went out to one of those giant clubs in Brooklyn not too long ago to see a friend DJ (Brooklyn Mirage). I was on guestlist, but the cover would have been $50. I bought a round of drinks to say thanks, and for three drinks I paid $75. Plus they made me load a credit card on some stupid wristband to even get the drinks. What 20-something can afford to do that with any regularity? Their rent is already 2-3x what I paid when I moved to Brooklyn nearly 20 years ago.

I don't buy the "young kids don't want to go out late anymore". They just never encountered scenes that were consistently relaxed, fun, and cheap.

Building a Home Dashboard
If I'm not mistaken, larger keys require more qbits in a machine to all be coherent together to be able to break it.

So it would be a slight increase in complexity, but if we are able to build a machine with enough qbits to crack 1024 keys, I don't think the engineering is all that far off from slightly scaling things up 2x-10x.
I'm wondering if this process can be GPU optimized. It's possible to rent really beefy GPU cloud instances for a few bucks per hour. <1 hour seems to be in reach.
Scala does it well. Implicits make it easy to pass along the instance you mean. You can put a default on the companion object if you want, but you can override where needed. Implicits on the companion object have lower priority than those in current scope.

If I had to pin one flaw on the stock market's valuations right now it is that it seems to have collectively forgotten the concept of "time value of money". Quantum computing may be very valuable, but it is certainly not going to be valuable for at least another 5 years at the best. Combine "money five years from now" with the high degree of risk associated with that (it really isn't obvious that quantum computing is going to be that useful, even if AI doesn't eat its lunch, and there's a lot of bites being taken at that apple), and that means that the bubble valuations aren't just as large as they look now, but in some sense represent a belief that quantum computing is going to be 5-10x larger, in five years, in actual, realized value, than the current valuations.

That's not likely. That's not just optimism, that's insane optimism, even if you follow the exponential curve in qubits the industry is claiming they're getting out for 5 years. Even if they suddenly switched today to progressing four times exponentially faster, you still need to account for the fact it's going to take time to write the software that uses these systems, including the fact that there isn't anyone who we'd really call "experienced" at that right now, time to identify the problems it will solve, etc. It's not like you can just drop a million-qubit system into the back office of a bank and expect it to suddenly just... ambiently make more money.

Project out the current valuations with the high time-value-of-money that one should probably use on such a high-risk, high-reward investment out to 20 years and it just gets absurd. Money 20 years from now is very low-value even before it's high risk.

AI is similarly just massively overvalued right now. Unlike quantum computing, I feel like there's a clear path from development to value, despite my general skepticism of it in its current incarnation. (But as I like to say, AI != LLM. I think LLMs are getting oversold, but progress marches on and LLMs will not end up being the upper limit.) But even so, the stock market is priced like that value is going to be trillions of dollars not in 10 or 20 years, but, like, yesterday. That does not seem to be manifesting. Net-net AI's impact on my life at this point may even be net-negative in that I'd pay to use the Internet that doesn't use AI to generate page after page of glurge wrecking up my results. Even just this morning I went to search for how to install a library in Ubuntu based on an error message about a missing library and the top page was a dead-wrong, completely hallucinated set of instructions for using apt to install a library that does not exist. High-risk money in ten to twenty years is not worth the valuations we're seeing.

Same here (Drinkmate brand, using SodaSense for swapping the bottles), about 3-4 years ago. Even though by my calculations it's close to the same cost as buying the canned flavored soda (i.e., LaCroix at Costco), there's a lot less waste. Actually, I did the comparison years ago so I wouldn't be surprised if now it's cheaper than buying the cans.

Oddly enough, I just bought some for my Aeron classic 2 weeks ago. They're about 10x better than the default casters on mid-height pile carpet with no/low padding and hardly move at all. It's not perfect, but almost usable.

And this is before I'm able to get a (carpet-covering) chair floor mat for one of the custom floor mat, preferably not PVC or glass, but made from one of the harder plastics. I have 2 105x30" Uplift tables in an overlapping L configuration (due to the small size of the room) that needs a rolling surface. I've seen price quotes ranging from $300-1000 USD for custom mats. Bonus points for a mat and wheel material combination that doesn't create terrible static (ESD) problems.
I am increasingly convinced we need to separate content storage from recommendation algorithms.

When an organization does both, it has perverse incentives such as maximizing add-profit or user-engagement by building echo chambers instead of doing what benefits the users - such as maximizing truth-seeking and getting an accurate picture of opinions among the general population.
On the flipside, it's also easily detected using a test kit or test strips you can throw into your pocket.

A couple things:

- Qingping Air Monitor Lite: https://a.co/d/1jUkawZ

- AirGradient DIY: https://www.airgradient.com/

They helped determine why everyone feels so sleepy and groggy at home in the winter: the CO2 levels are routinely over 2,000 ppm. If we have any guests for a couple hours, it usually goes above 3,000 ppm.

And before anyone comments about accuracy, I've measure both of the above against very expensive, high quality air quality monitors we have at work, and they all give the same readings over months.

I noticed it in general observationally and later found a generic explanation for it.

I used to do behavioral analytics and noticed that programmers tend to have a distinct clustering of behaviors.

I’m pretty sure it’s the TNXB gene, it’s been overlooked because it’s traditionally hard to sequence but modern sequencing 30x or long reads can find SNPs here. A colleague who has the same rare set of behaviors and interest as me and is also hyper-mobile had found that he has a TNXB SNP combination that should by random chance only occur in 1/10K people, I subsequently did a DNA test and found that I too had the same SNPs. I have since collected more samples from friends and colleagues who are world class in their fields and so far 5 of 5 have had the same TNXB SNPs. It also appears that in reality this combination is much more common than random chance due to sexual selection which should underscore how behaviorally impactful it is.

Hyper mobility is considered a spectrum and a theory that I’m yet to prove is that the spectrum is almost entirely down to the number and type of TNXB SNPs. And it appears that people on this spectrum are more likely to be programmers.

Consider the over representation of transgenderism in programming. That same over representation exists in hyper-mobility and I would suggest this is due to a common cause.

it's like a google but for opportunities. yeah opportunity search engine

We are collecting data from social media (X, LinkedIn, Telegram etc), daily millions of people post seeking for help

"hi i am hiring a web developer"
"i need a designer for my app"
"i need an assistant" etc etc

these opportunities never reach to mass audience and most importantly us.

sniff is collecting massive data every hour

The database is connected to an AI intelligent model to make perfect match

You can login to sniff and prompt "hi i am good with excel, i can design in figma and i can write well. is there any opportunity of my interest posted this week?"

Sniff will find the best match, and best alternative.

It also looks for intent of user, imagine a user posted "ah man, my app crashed again, F", it might seem like a blabber, but Sniff sees this as an opportunity for web developers, system architects, DS people, people in network etc. you get my point

Sniff is growing fast, and people lovin it.

If the weights are listed on the are to be believed, this shouldn't be an issue. It says 40 kg for a 21" wheel. A quick Google is telling me that a regular old steel wheel from a truck of the same size is around 50 to 80 lbs (23-36 kg).

That said, I was already thinking 630 kw per wheel was a pretty incredible claim before I realized these are apparently not much heavier than a non-mptorized wheel. These have to be some marketing department numbers or something. 630 kw is roughly 850 horsepower.
I strongly doubt. Why would this be the case?
Is there a compelling reason to use 3072 instead of 4096? If you're going to kick the can down the road you might as well put some effort into it.
