Searching for a Co-Founder in US
Hi all,

I’m reaching out because I’m looking for a co-founder in the U.S. to build my next AI startup. I currently live in Amsterdam and have already built my first startup here, but this time I want to take a different approach—starting in the U.S. with the right team from day one.

I have a strong vision for an AI-driven solution and am eager to connect with ambitious, technical founders who share the same drive. Given YC’s network and expertise in helping founders connect, I’d love to know if you can offer any guidance or introductions.

Looking forward to your thoughts!

>There are no "artificial rules", just humans acting according to normal human behavior.

There are uncountably many examples of humans, presumably normal, existing outside of the rules set by free market capitalism and not collapsing into a black hole.

One such example is the Indigenous peoples of Australia, who lived for tens of thousands more years than the concept of free market capitalism has existed, without even the concept of money or property beyond what one carried on their person.

I have to assume that they are "normal" humans.

Even today many aboriginals struggle with "tHe NaTuRaL LaWz of tEh MaRkEt JuSt LiKe GrAvItY BrAh TrUsT Me BrAHHHHH" because they've only been exposed to them for less than 0.3% of their culture's total existence.

There are examples, today, right now, this very minute, in (extremely northern) Europe of presumably normal humans who look at the rules you consider to be "natural" with shock and horror.

A cult has convinced you that their ideology is natural law. You can both participate in this system and realize that it is all bullshit and not be a hypocrite.
I guess this is due to the tag line of the company. I am not familiar with the compiler/LLVM space so unsure how the different branches (compiler maintenance and AI tool infrastructure for example) are covered by the PHD internships, etc.
> I have a set of multiple given names, each of them given by a godfather. In our tradition and law they are equal because treating one of them specially is insulting to the godfathers (which you caught me guilty of).

I don't see how changing "first" to "given" lessens the insult to those N - 1 godfathers.

And having "multiple first names" is not that rare.
No, not even close.

Nobody - even the Polish - can quantify the value of the each part of the process, but your rendering of what happened is clearly inaccurate by any and all reasonable measures.
Embarrassing how little of this I knew, especially with my username.
DEC Alpha systems solved this problem by using an x86 emulator during system boot to run the initialization code, thus allowing for standard PC cards to be used on a non x86 processor.

In general, yes, Elon and friends are correct. There are numerous articles on the topic. As long as Elon and friends don't offer solutions, they can remain so, otherwise mockery and some good laughs will likely be in order.
Agreed. The Platinum UI design holds up extraordinarily well - it had a clear design language which was easy for developers to use and extend.
PURL is in the same space as w3id.org, not perma.cc. Purl and w3id work by creating stable URLs thar can redirect to a (potentially changing) origin, perma.cc/archive.org/archivebox create WARC archives or the content at a given instant.
Even beyond just the success of the company, I'd find it demoralizing (unless they paid me more than I would expect).

I knew someone who was the lone engineer at a start up who got a call from the founders, all on the golf course who wanted to talk about a new feature. At first he thought it was a joke because it seemed absurd, no they were serious. He quit the next day. He figured they were non serious founders. Company just rand itself out of money not too long after.
> Human geneticists are cult-like in their commitment to never explicitly interpreting findings, however unambiguous the evidence is, in a way that could potentially have a remote chance of being used as fuel for discrimination.

History has shown this to be wise. If human beings -- as individuals or as a group -- come to view themselves as superior to others, the next step is always abuse, enslavement, or war. Civilization tries very hard to suppress this for the same reason that it suppresses some of the wilder expressions of unbridled human sexuality, physical aggression, etc. Moral issues aside, there’s certain stuff that just breaks everything if you let it run unchecked.

A truly intelligent being could look dispassionately at the various distributions of abilities and other differences in its population and deal with this maturely and rationally. We aren't capable of this yet. I don’t think we can handle it emotionally.

This is an area where my opinions have evolved as I’ve gotten older and seen more of the world. We do, in fact, need taboos around certain things. I don’t think there should be too many of them, but there’s areas where the need has been repeatedly demonstrated.
It is impossible for a headline to give you all of the details of an article.

Yes, that is one of the issues. Numerous biases appear to be propagated by academia, of which several are discussed in academia and Wikipedia.
We pay very competitive on the cash side (over 200k for exceptional engineers), and have offer options that are 10x more competitive on company stake side than other companies (up to 20% for exceptional engineers, but with lower cash as a tradeoff).

I have used it a lot, and I love it, but it's very limited with regards to which situations it's useful in. It's way too sensitive to sound, so it stops way to often when answering; if there is noise in the room (as there often is in a shop).

It's also often not useful because it's more work to spell out every other thing that dictation is not good for.
For instance, If i want to ask
"What does the ICD-10 code for F320 stand for?", it might transcribe it as
"What does IceDen code for F3. 120. stand for?"
When I have to start messing around with the keyboard anyways, it's double slow compared to just typing on a physical keyboard.

Many times when I need input, the thing in question is a technical term. This is as true in psychology as in coding. So it must have a way to correctly understand the uncommon terms, for instance, a predictable way to spell out or ask for clarification. Same with regards to coding terms. What is the chance that it correctly understands?"Explain #include <stdio.h> syntax"?

That said, it's awesome as long as the question uses common and predictable words. It's just surprising how often it uses uncommon terms. Thus, it's awesome, but limited. The best use case is when I think of a topic while walking the dog that I want more information on. Then I can have a cool conversation with it while walking.

On another note: It went completely off the rails for me a month ago and stopped giving useful information after it created a memory that I "want short, concise, factual, and to-the-point responses," which is true, but it went from informative to almost giving me the silent treatment and answering show short that it was useless. I feel it never got completely back to normal after removing that memory.
This might be different if you have 4 users on the system or 400 users.

Also, traditional Unix makes it easy to find out who was active on the system at a certain time (for example with the "last" command, which reads the wtmp log), plus other data sources (historically regular users were often allowed to read most log files by default, and people often used relatively open file permissions by default, which would at least allow for examining other users' file metadata).
This controversy has been going on for many years. Just google it. Both Labour and the Tories have been demanding variations of it. The differences between them are essentially nil.
I don't think there's anything preventing anyone to sell an Ada compiler, tooling. It's an ISO standard and you can read its spec (the holy Ada Reference Manual) and rationale for free.

I'd say the biggest hurdle is that Ada is a very complex language to implement. I've been writing Ada for more than 20 years, and writing static analysis tools for 5 years with libadalang (an amazing toolbox...) now and I still find it hard to grasp the whole combinatrics of features.

Easy to use, but very hard to implement.
> Somewhat related to the above, all array indexes are just numbers.

Create your own type[0] encapsulating arrays, and then implement the Index[1] with a custom Idx generic.

> In Ada and enumeration is a valid type to use as an array index, or a range from 5 to 15, or -123 to 7

That's what TFA is about.

> Where do these shares come from?

This is obviously decided by the employees. One option is that the company reserves a pool of shares for hiring, another is to dilute. Again voted and agreed on by the people that work there.

> The investment portion…
> Where does that money come from?

“The investment portion” is the portion of the package you’re giving your investor in exchange for the money being invested. That part of the package could include: more shares, a later lump sum payment, etc.

I imagine the share dilution or split or whatever would be tied the continued success of the business, requiring everyone to understand how adding a person would financially change their risk/ownership pool.

Rust started with ocaml as a base, then evolved in a more C-like direction later on, mainly as a familiarity with the target programmers thing. It wasn't originally envisioned as the systems language that it became, it was much more high level, with a planned GC and everything, then the lifetimes stuff got developed and the contributers at the time pushed it into more and more control in the hands of the programmer.
From the Nature article[1], despite being prominent in the abstract it's almost a throwaway in the body:

> ... Moon’s Vallis Schrödinger and Vallis Planck were carved by streams of impacting rock in less than 10 min.

and earlier in the same article:

> Flight times of debris producing the 270 km-long main canyon are 4.9 to 15.0 min for Vallis Schrödinger over the entire range of potential ejection angles, with canyon-forming secondary impacts occurring within a 5 min interval. Flight times of debris producing the 280 km-long main canyon are 5.2 to 15.4 min for Vallis Planck over the entire range of potential ejection angles, with canyon-forming secondary impacts occurring within a 5 min interval.

I didn't dig all the way into how we get 10 minutes from 4.9-15 minutes. I was very interested in how this time was so confidently bounded. I'm guessing it's the graph that charts impact sizes, distances, and energies to assume flight travel time from a point of impact.

I'm also annoyed at the shift from "min" to "minutes" during the article. That just seems like really bad editing.

I'll admit that I don't travel outside of the US much, so those issues don't really apply to me.

> 7 kg is laughably little, a standard cabin bag already weighs 2

One thing that I have done is move from roller luggage to a travel backpack. I personally use the Osprey Farpoint, but there are many in the category to choose from. Not only is it much lighter than hard sided luggage, but it's typically much more forgiving of dimensional requirements, and can often fit in overhead bins, where hard sided luggage may not be able to (if you're the last person trying to put something in the bin).

And on top of all of that, it's been much more reliable for me - I've had and seen roller luggage fail pretty often - at both the wheels and the handle. Neither of those exists on the bag, which just keeps trucking.

I get that for many people a travel backpack isn't an option. But if it is something that might work for you, I highly recommend it.
The majority of healthcare spending goes to chronic diseases primarily caused by lifestyle issues. Collectively we are a nation of obese, sedentary substance abusers. If we could do better on prevention and delay the onset of chronic diseases like type-2 diabetes, hypertension, and heart failure then that would largely fix the demand problem and leave a lot more resources available for patients who randomly get cancer or multiple sclerosis or whatever. But this is a policy issue that goes way beyond the healthcare system and no one has a practical solution. Everyone loves to give health and nutrition advice to others, but we're all undisciplined and do unhealthy stuff even when we know we shouldn't.

As for the food supply, I have no doubt that many people are impacted by subclinical micronutrient deficiencies, whether it's sulphur or zinc or D3 or something else. But the evidence indicates that's less important than excess macronutrients for most people.
Naw, it's already been false precisioned to hell.

The original would have been "about 1000 metres/second". That got translated to 3600 km/h etc.

JDK 24: First Release Candidate
The CNN article I just skimmed about this has a very interesting science communication issue. It notes that originally the solid inner core rotated faster than the rest of the planet, but that in 2010 it rotated slower than the rest of the planet. It's not clear from CNN's article:

1. Whether the inner core was or was not observed to spin faster than the rest of the planet
2. Whether the inner core changed (relative?) speed in 2010 or whether its behavior was confirmed in 2010, or
3. Perhaps most interestingly, whether the inner core had spun faster than the rest of the planet and we happened to be alive at the time when, for the first time in our planet's 4.6 billion year history, that changed in 2010, or whether they swap rotation rates now and then.

This is not really criticism. Science communication is hard. Hell, I've probably misrepresented CNN's representation 2-3 times in this comment.
That thread also has the benefit of using the original source article from Kaspersky, which is worth a read. This blog post notably disagrees with Kaspersky's own conclusions about whether it's an intentional backdoor, instead citing Steve Gibson, who has clearly learned nothing from his previous "WMF backdoor" debacle.
it does not have any dependency to a pdf parsing library, correct? That's a cool way to learn to file format and be able to work around weird pdf file.
But what was the motivation to not use a library to do the pdf parsing work? is it the case that there is none available? Nice work!
Hey everyone! I’m Twan from the Netherlands. Last week, I launched Pitch Bracket — a product launch platform with a playoff-style format. Think of it like a sports tournament, but for online products, where users vote through multiple rounds. Here’s how it works:

Monday: 16 products compete
Tuesday: 8 products left
Wednesday: Down to 4
Thursday: The final 2
Friday–Sunday: The winner stays on the platform with extra exposure.

I’ve seen many "Product Hunt alternatives", but most end up being almost identical to PH. I wanted to create something more dynamic and fun. Since each batch lasts a full week, it makes the experience more exclusive and engaging.

So far it's been received very well on reddit and x but i wanted to hear from you guys too, so let me know what you think.

I love paperwork, so I always handle passport applications and stuff for us, and whenever I have to fill out my wife's stuff, there's that part about other last names, and I get super paranoid trying to remember which ones she's officially used (she doesn't even remember, or even have records sometimes due to the nature of immigrating), because between Latin America and the US pre- and post-citizenship plus getting married, it's kind of a nightmare to remember when there was a de something, an y something, or just one surname, or two surnames.

And then her parents are from another country with different surname rules, throwing a crazy wrench in things when she has to deal with her other citizenship documents, which adhere to that other country's rules.

The main difference separating them is the array model. APL has the so-called 'nested array' model, meaning that everything is an array. J has a 'flat array model' meaning scalars are distinct from arrays. Both models introduce typing inconsistencies preventing efficiency. BQN tried to remedy this and use an efficient compiler. What sets K apart is that it does not have multidimensional arrays, but just lists of 1D arrays. This makes K ideal for financial work, while the others are more non-financial math-oriented.

My dad has literally just published a book (in Russian) with about 850 words with near identical sound and meanings in Russian and other Slavonic languages. :)

For my part I built the web based editing tool, DB and LaTeX generation system that he used to assemble this massive undertaking over the years. :)

https://borissoff.wordpress.com/2015/10/30/first-public-pres...

It was interesting hearing him talk about how you can see pieces of the original proto language preserved in the different languages. E.g. Russian has 6 cases, Sanskrit has some of these but also others and the original language had something like 12 (I don’t have any particular knowledge on the subject so might be misremembering).

For me it was interesting that the original language seemed to be more complex than the modern descendants, like there is a general trend towards simplification with time. In my mind then there is the question as to where the original complex language came from and why would a culture that we would consider more primitive that ours would need and come up with one.
