I recently discovered the ikea smart stuff range and highly recommend it. The Ikea stuff uses zigbee and its trivial to connect it to a third party zigbee dongle plugged into your Pi HA setup. The lights work flawlessly and I've been reinventing light switches with the smart remotes ikea sells.
It's like you're saying, make crypto more like real money — like how transfers over $10K trigger regulatory scrutiny. From my understanding (nocrypto) fans of crypto like that it's not like real money.

Background in telecommunications/signal processing (phd) + applied math. I studied finance + machine learning for two years as a hobby before the switch. In the evenings and weekends. Studied data structures + algorithms + python for two years before took a job as a software engineer in google (initially as a data scientist in apple). Worked 6 days a week for 1.5 yrs to master information retrieval in google. So lots of studying was involved on top of a solid educational base.
Ask HN: How do I get into higher-level math?
I am a high schooler who is very interested in math and I currently feel “limited” by just the fact of being in high school.

I want to learn more about higher level math concepts (e.g. proofs, analysis) but I’m unsure of where to start.

What resources would you recommend for someone like me to go beyond high school math?
>they are the laughing stock of hardware crypto wallets

Well that's not even close to true. Only the hardcore Bitcoin maximalists were pushing that lie because ledger was supporting Bitcoin cash. What a weird pathetic lie to keep telling all these years later.
For single-author quickly-changing projects I'd guess that it's quite likely for only like 1% of the commits to be looked at to such extent that the commit message is meaningfully useful. And if each good commit message takes 1 minute to write (incl. overhead from the mental context switching), each of those uses better save 100 minutes compared to just looking at the diff.
It is the norm though isn’t it? When it comes time for your review you still have to show “impact” on your promo document. At least at AWS when I was there, it might help since part of your promo document was getting feedback from someone one level up.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Value_of_life#European_Union
You are correct of course! Ledger has long been a pillar of the community but villainized by the Bitcoin core maximalists when ledger started supporting Bitcoin Cash (BCH), the original bitcoin.

Like so much in this space people think with their wallet and will villainize anyone who doesn't help sell their bags.
Just don't use it then.
> Regarding sanitation, not sure if they are any worse than, say, door handles.

It will depend on the material of the door handles. In my experience, many of the handles are some kind of metal, and bacteria has a harder time surviving on metal surfaces. Compare that to a screen that requires some pretty hard presses in order to get registered inputs from it, and I think you'd find a considerably higher amount of bacteria sitting there.

Additionally, I try to use to my sleeve in order to open door handles whenever possible.

The problem with smart switches is they require 3 wires: live, neutral and the switched wire to the light. Where I live most switches have only two: live and the switched wire to the light. The neutral goes directly to the light and doesn't pass through the switch. Because of this I have no way to power the smart switch module. Unless I want to rewire half the house :(

Yup, methods and reproducibility as you have also mentioned. My work focused on Symbolic Regression, the problem, which I tried to separate from Genetic Programming, the algorithm. The literature refers to SR as the algorithm, but I think that is incorrect. I wrote a deterministic algorithm Prioritized Grammar Enumeration and put my code & data on github. https://github.com/verdverm/pypge (pdf there too, don't tell ACM)
So I personally am out of the rat race, I’m already the highest level of IC at my current company (IC5) and no longer playing the game.

But, the cynical take and the one I would advise anyone to take who wanted to maximize their compensation and was early career is that you work to exchange the maximum compensation for your labor to exchange for goods and services. “This type of developer” is the only one that gets ahead in BigTech or adjacent companies.
Smart switches (at least for lights) seem to me like a solution in search of a problem. Why would I ever need to turn on lights when I'm not there? If I am there, what's wrong with just using the switch?

I am using HA for something else. I'm building some ESP32 based "smart" thermostats to collect temperature and humidity data as well as exert some control over my minisplits. The only viable interface is IR so that's taking a little work to place a transmitter and receiver appropriately s.t. my wall mounted device meshes well with the existing remote control. The end goal is to integrate with the hydronic backup to create a hybrid heat system.

It's frustrating I have to build all this myself. This shit should all just work that way out of the box, without the "GE Cloud" or whatever. But I'm glad it's made relatively easy by tools like HA and microcontroller dev boards.
I think you should get new lawyers if this is their understanding of how software licenses work.
> do this in-house and apply banking standards for this data handling, seems like a no-brainer.

The no-brainer is thinking that cryptobros are going to do the opposite of whatever banking standards are. Following existing standards in not what disrupters do. It's not what someone flaunting all of the traditional rules of "fiat currency" do. Expecting a scorpion to not sting you is on you.
I'm waiting for 'linker-guy to weigh in, personally.
> Organization on song within album within artist within genre helped me remember and relate to it. I felt like I was in conversation with the artists.

The podcast No Dogs in Space brought this back for me. They discuss the stories of different artists, playing clips of their songs and explaining which got them their first gigs or record deals, when band members joined or left, other artists and music styles of the time, etc.

I've always been terrible with names, so I could never follow along with pop culture songs, albums, or artists. For the first time in my life I can overhear a song and identify it, the artist's influences, and related songs. I'm no longer a complete outsider in conversations about music.

Maybe once upon a time radio provided a lot of that--before it was taken over by standardized programming and advertisements.
4th & King has much better connections to transit and neighborhoods, and I hope they never build that tunnel.
Surely your LTO bugs are not so easy to fix that they take less time to resolve than linking itself does.
"Leaders" of industry no longer have to adhere to arbitrary racial/gender compliance just because someone decided there needs to be "x" number of "y" people working there.

Look at it from the vendor’s perspective. Most people still want to be able to access and control their home from outside their home network, which generally means going through a hosted server, so why go to the extra trouble of implementing a separate method for local LAN only when you could just use the same central server? It’s almost always the case that the local LAN can access the internet, so there’s not much incentive to make it more efficient.

Yes, ideally the local user should just hit the local hub directly, but it’s double the development effort for negligible benefit.

Out of the 25GW being generated right now only 3GW are renewable. There is a corner where there is more demand from "100% renewable" customers than there actually is available renewable energy. There is no point at which this gets made up.
I don't think Nordics will be needing much batteries, Norway and Sweden have so much hydropower that can absorb fluctuations in the power production and usage. But there still will be a lot installed alongside new renewable sites, you can use them to optimize the grid connections.
How does this work on the TV?
10GbE RJ45 networking is the most expensive, if you want to get into higher speed networking you need to use cards with SFP+ (SFPP) and QFSP+ ports, then you select either a transceiver for the application or use a DAC (direct attach cable) that includes the transceiver and cable in a single piece.

40GbE with cards and DAC cables are pretty cheap if you can get them shipped from the states. Cards are on the order of 15-50 (for both 10GbE to 40GbE QSFP).

If you are trying to figure this stuff out on your own from listings, you will be utterly lost. Use a big llm to help you out and cross reference, stuff can get tricky real quick.

If you want to get started, the lowest friction path is to get a couple intel 520, 540 or 710 nics and some patch cables. I started with just two 520s and a some cables for loop back.

A little bit more than the states, but not bad. https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/394258109292
This is such a waste of time to do this for every single site! Especially when it's easier to rely on the password manager in cases like this

I was disappointed to realize how thin the veneer really is. And sometimes a music-carrying video will be unavailable in the music app because YT music and YT as video service apparently aren't subject to the same region rules.
Or you overestimate how many competent psychos are out there scheming to do anything to make money.

Doing a kidnapping and getting a ransom is probably not too hard, but being on the run forever afterwards might not be worth it to most. People with money can hire their own bounty hunters/or plain criminals to go after them afterwards. Or just announce a bounty high enough (in dark channels, your high profile security company has access to) so people will do the hunt for free.

Most people like to boast about their action - so competent here means keeping quiet about it forever and coming up with a good excuse for why they have that money.

Show HN: Theralist – A Better Way to Find Therapists in Canada
Hey HN,

I built Theralist, a free directory to help Canadians find mental health therapists based on what matters most—speciality, client age, therapist gender, languages, and more.

The site allows users to search by city, province, or therapist name, making it easier to connect with the right professional. My goal is to simplify the process of finding qualified therapists while giving people more control over their search criteria.

Would love to get your thoughts and feedback! Any suggestions for improving the experience or adding features?

I moved from development to architecture and that helped for a few years. New focus different things to learn. Then the same things started happening there. I moved more into management and was good there for a bit and then same patterns emerged. Jumped to consulting and it’s the same story. Now am exploring more “leadership” style roles.

I realize I personally do a LOT better when I’m actively learning and doing new things in a job. If it’s something I know I can do and have done it many times it’s like my mind refuses to engage eventually unless the anxiety overrides it.

It’s getting more difficult though. Especially with consulting giving me insights into how dozens of very large technology orgs are run. The problems are almost always the same and it’s rarely technical. I used to always enjoy starting at new companies. But more and more it’s just the exact same patterns and even that is rarely engaging.

At some point I think I’ll have to leave tech altogether and explore something completely different. Just hope I can survive until the kids are out exploring on their own so I can take a break on the cash flow demands.
I did something like this 10 years ago. I had a 3G modem with a SIM card and it allowed more than the regular SMS app on your phone. Obviously I didn't have a whole app, just a simple CLI.

For example, you could send class 0 SMS (flash) with it. The kind of SMS that shows up on your screen, and all you can do is click OK, and it just disappears.

Where do you draw the line and tell your employer? Some small repos you make that have nothing to do your company's business can be no-brainers...

But I sometimes wonder, wait a sec, yes this thing would make a great open source repo but I am giving away code I'm being paid to write that I had no right to give away?

And asking, hey can I open source this is a mess. Sometimes no answer, sometime no timely answer, sometimes just a no.
I guess is comes down to whether you think it's possible to prevent this kind of thing with nothing more than cleverly aligned incentives and cleverly applied cryptography.

If it is, then we'd be fools not to try, and having the trusted third party is just the better of several bad alternatives.

But it is a pretty audacious claim. I wish there were more radical optimists among us pursuing such things. Pity that that's not what most crypto is these days.
But how would any of that help in this case? They didn’t break his wallet, they didn’t force him to transfer money personaly. They kidnapped him and his wife and then cut off his finger and sent the finger to his associates asking for money.

The transfer would be initiated by the associates who are free. What would a panic code help there?

The only thing which might change things is the ability to reverse transactions. That would make the kidnappers keep them longer. At the cost of making every transaction on the blockchain less trustworthy. Not really a clear win.
Where is the effort going now? lld?
Why do anything: because it shows what's possible, and makes the next effort that much more easier.

When cryptocurrency comes to depend on all the trust anchors of the fiat monetary system, the naive reimplementation will be feature-complete.
That would imply that such debuggers are storing line numbers as not just 16-bit numbers (which is probably sensible, considering that source files longer than that are uncommon), but as signed 16-bit numbers. I can't fathom a situation where line numbers would ever be negative.
The "statistical value of a life" doesn't mean what you think it does. It's essentially a measurement of how much, on average, people value their own live at the margin (i.e. how much are they willing to pay for a slightly safer car, how much more does a slightly more dangerous job have to pay for people to still apply etc.)

It's not a political "cap on how much to spend on saving somebody's life". There have of course been rescue operations more expensive than that per person, and some medical expenditures exceed that cap as well.

This is just a well known Baumol’s cost disease…

Even the chart is the same?

>The lines in blue are the sectors where technological innovation is allowed to push down prices while increasing quality. The lines in red are the sectors where technological innovation is not permitted to push down prices; in fact, the prices of education, health care, and housing as well as anything provided or controlled by the government are going to the moon, even as those sectors are technologically stagnant.

Or that the blue lines are products that China produces. The red lines are services that the US has to produce domestically.

I think you have a misunderstanding about the Ethernet standard they are discussing. This isn’t copper Ethernet, its fibre Ethernet standard. Copper Ethernet caps out at 25Gb/s with an impractically short 10 meter cable run.
https://archive.is/44VEV
This article didn't mention faster copper as far as I could see. 1.6Tb Ethernet and its predecessor 800Gbe are for fiber, maybe copper for DAC and backplanes.

That's not exciting for consumers, 10g hasn't managed to get far for consumers, although 2.5g is starting to show up more places. I'd rather not buy from aliexpress, but there's some ok priced stuff there than can do 2.5g with maybe a 10g port or two.

10BaseT1L is also mentioned, but that's 10Megabit on a single pair, not exciting for speed, but maybe exciting for reusing limited wiring that's in place.
