Opponent! I like that. People riding in the other direction are opponents!

For those who know English as a second language , opponent is a term used to describe the person you are competing against in a sports event, or fighting with, in a battle!

some smart asses would be calling all their relatives, distant-relatives, friends, etc AND claim that they all lived there.

the more better approach would be compensating by property, though does have its own downsides
> This would result in tech companies supporting Republicans

People often forget that these companies care about nothing but money. This isn't an anti-capitalist rant or anything; that's just how the world works. As publicly traded corporations, they are obligated to their shareholders to always make decisions that are best for the company, no matter what. That would include supporting Republicans, if necessary.

It doesn't matter how many angry engineers vent on Twitter about how their favorite megacorps are now Trump supporters. These decisions come from the very top.

Interesting to see a Rust implementation of RDP. The protocol has a lot of quirks and edge cases that make it challenging to implement correctly, especially around authentication and session management. The focus on security is good, but I'm curious how they handle RemoteFX and other proprietary extensions that often require licensing. Would be great to see this become a solid foundation for cross-platform RDP implementations that don't rely on the official Microsoft stack.
Show HN: Get hired faster by reaching decision-makers early
I built Insider Openings because I know how frustrating job searching can be. You spend hours tweaking resumes, writing cover letters, applying through job boards… and then? Crickets. I’ve been there, wondering if anyone even saw my application.

But after years of working with startups, I noticed something most job seekers don’t see is that when a company raises funding, they’re about to grow. They start hiring fast, often before a job ever hits a careers page. That’s when the window of opportunity is wide open… but no one’s talking about it.

So I thought, what if I could give job seekers a head start? A list of companies fresh off a funding round, along with direct contacts to the people actually making hiring decisions? That’s how Insider Openings was born.

What distinction are you drawing between government bureaucrats and the scientists who use their data? If the thesis is correct, then most demographers are wrong about the world’s population. The bureaucrats themselves might not be scientists, but the demographers surely are.

This is a thinly-veiled ode to the “trust the experts” paternalism that dominated the early 2020s. This attitude isn’t scientific, it destroyed the trust in the scientific method it claimed to want to preserve, and it resulted in many policies that courts have since ruled to be illegal.
> But we're also on a very technical forum, not a general audience one, so I kinda assume a context that people here are not as concerned about the user interface.

I think that's a common mistake. I'm fairly highly technical compared to your average user, but I don't have that much higher tolerance to friction for stuff that's not my core concern.

Poor UX is definitely friction, and system administration is seldom my core concern. I'm fairly certain I'm not unique.
Unless you can get your layer height height down to small fractions of a wavelength of light (so like 50nm or less), I suspect the stairstep shape of your 3d prints will throw off all the optical properties. The tangent angle of the surface is more important (sensitive) than the overall shape of the lens.

You could get rid of the layer lines with post-processing like grinding/polishing, but grinding/polishing is how lenses are traditionally made anyway. Maybe you get to skip the first few steps (rough shaping of the glass blank), but you're still probably left with an optically inferior product.
I don't have any special knowledge here. From brief googling, my impression is the incidence rate is pretty low.
The way i see it people really do often live in multiple locations at once and bureaucracy has a hard time with that fact. Think of the itinerant workers travelling around for seasonal jobs. The census might count them in one location but it’s quite reasonable they count for the relocation too.

So it’s possibly a matter of edge cases in the wheels of bureaucracy than outright graft.
Musk is a troll. IMO the salute was 100% intentional and done for attention, but the man doesn't actually believe in the core tenets of national socialism.
I don’t think so. Trump has no vested interest in stability. He doesn’t serve the public as past presidents have done. That’s not what he’s trying to do.

I recently tackled a notorious challenge in time management apps—detecting overlaps for time periods that cross midnight. In my latest article, I break down a clear, TypeScript-based solution that avoids heavy date libraries by leveraging a simple, mathematical approach using minutes-since-midnight.

Key Highlights:

Overlap Detection: Learn how to determine if two time periods conflict, even when one starts before midnight and ends the next day.
Step-by-Step Approach: The article guides you through converting times into a standardized format and handling various edge cases.
Clean TypeScript Implementation: Explore how well-defined interfaces and functions can simplify what initially appears to be a complex problem.
Real-World Application: Discover how this solution helped prevent double-booking of resources in a project spanning day boundaries.
>who are willing to actually spend that money

Money mean nothing. It is simply medium of exchange. The question is, is there anything to exchange? And the answer is yeas, and position of white collar workers doesn't affect availability of things for exchange. There's no reason for recession, there is nothing that can hinder ability of blue collar workers to create goods and services, all that things that when combined is called "wealth".

Don't think in the meaningless category of "what set of digits will be printed in the piece of paper called paycheck?". Think in the terms, that are implied: "What goods and services blue collar workers can't afford to themselves?". And it will become clear that the set of unaffordable goods and services to blue collar workers will decrease because of the replacement white collar workers with AI, because it is not hinder their ability to create those goods and services.
Great stuff. Would be neat to have an adapter make the output stream match the ai-sdk format so it plugs in to existing UX (https://sdk.vercel.ai/docs/ai-sdk-ui/stream-protocol)
I missed the extortion and oppression parts...

Could it be that you are reading in between the lines, hence the strangeness?
I'm not sure that's possible. The space of policies that improve car alternatives without a perception of negatively impacting drivers is very narrow. That rules out bus priority lanes, protected bike lanes, gas and parking surcharges to fund transit, modal filters, advance walk signals...

Even when those policies actually improve the driving experience by getting more people out of cars and reducing congestion for the remaining drivers, many drivers don't tend to compare against the counterfactual where those road users become car traffic blocking their way when evaluating the impact of those policies on their drive. They just see bike and bus lanes being prioritized and react like it's a war against cars.

So how do you imagine that transit can be improved, without drivers reacting like they're being punished?
The government bureaucrats in this case are usually scientists employees by the government. And as far as I'm concerned anybody using the scientific method is a scientists, and if they aren't then they aren't, job title is meaningless here.

Stop pretending that scientist should be trusted. The recurring narrative you complain about is true and it's what separates science from dogma.

Scientists are experts in incredibly narrow fields and almost always speak about topics they have no knowledge of, even more dangerous, they convinced themselves and others that they have knowledge of these topics because they are superficially similar to something they know well.
I also was bit disappointed when it wasn't smart wheels. Then I got impressed to see it handle the drops and stairs.

That article doesn't look compelling when refuting a claim that depends entirely on geography and migration.
There are US companies benefiting of big tech antitrust enforcement. For example, Apple opening up their ecosystem could be good news for Garmin and Bose. Since there are more tech companies in US it means that fighting antitrust could still be a win for US.
I agree with you. On individual rights I would qualify that by saying that France has never been leading on them. The state is what matters and individual rights have always in practice been restricted to that effect.

Sorry, it's not the point of what you were saying. You can tell I've been stung supporting users with this.
Maybe they don't think it's as likely as you think. Or maybe they think the time horizon is long enough that it is worth it. Whatever it is, I assure you they are not too stupid to realize this is a possibility. They just differ on either the degree of the risk, or on the value they get in return. In which case, logic dictates that if you believe the actual risk is higher than they would tolerate, to find a way to convince them of that.
Except you haven't managed to show how. So... continue pushing ignorant blather.
Exactly. I’m no fan of them and have had a battle or two in the past with a previous house I owned. My issue was not due to ignorance, but a weird interpretation of a statute. I had a tree die. I removed it because it was unsightly. I was dinged because I wanted to replace it when the season was appropriate for planting another tree. Had I left it in I wouldn’t be in violation. So I had to plant a tree (that subsequently died), just to plant another when the season was right. Just dumb.

I swore I’d never buy in an HOA community angain after that, but around me, non-HOA communities are crap. I want to maximize value and opportunity to resell so, HOA it is.
Well, "the street" also huffs glue.
>ere exactly do you think the additional revenue comes from to fill the gap between "infrastructure revenue" and "total transportation spending"?

Total - infrastructure = non infrastructure.

I have never doubted California might regressively tax the shit out of people for non infrastructure transit spending like metro busses.

This is doubly regressive in California due to their property tax increase capping that is well below inflation, highly benefitting earlier wealthier older entrants at the expense of the younger and less wealthy.

This isn't a very rosy fact for California or for collecting even more on non infrastructure transportation revenue under the current tax regime.
Sorry to rub salt in the wound, but a power cut every month seems very high for a rich area in a rich country. Having lived decades across different cities across western Europe I've experienced power cuts maybe two or three times - and otherwise only on vacation in developing countries.

Our services here all have more or less publicly owned infrastructure with private providers handing the contracts and energy supply. I guess that must be a happy middle ground, and having a private corporation handling infrastructure seems a bad idea all around.
I think Twitter (and to a lesser degree its derivatives like bluesky, threads, etc) did far more harm than Facebook. It played a major part in ruining journalism and politics to a degree that far outshadows any other social media platform.
> Again, it's a flawed heuristic. Military contracting is wildly profitable. Value to society is questionable.

It's not questionable at all but if you don't already see that I'm not interested in arguing it with you.

> Analysis of the subtle successes of social democracies and "Gross National Happiness" are just two examples that put the lie to this myth.

GNH is cope from the Dragon King of Bhutan to justify the poverty and ethnic cleansing of his nation in the international community. The Nordic countries all have very high per-capita GDP.

If you wanna call my claim a myth, citing a few metrics which correlate really well with GDP is not very convincing.

I'm literally repeating what it says in the Oxford English Dictionary. What are you citing that equates transit fares with taxes?

If I remember right Isaac Asimov wrote down similar notes on scale and they were publish but I can’t remember what the book was called. I used to do the same think when I was a kid. A teacher saw me doing it and mentioned the book. It haunts me to this day.
This seems like quintessential whataboutism. I think expanding on how that concern is "largely invented" would serve your point better. I, at least, would be interested.
Something that frustrates me a little is that my system (apple silicon) has unified memory, which in theory should negate the need to shuffle data between CPU and GPU. But, iiuc, the GPU programming APIs at my disposal all require me to pretend the memory is not unified - which makes sense because they want to be portable across different hardware configurations. But it would make my life a lot easier if I could just target the hardware I have, and ignore compatibility concerns.
I have thought about making a game or a Fallout 3/4 mod in which the player needs to assembly pieces to repair a broken vintage computer before the nuclear war, and then search for some manuals and write programs to solve quests.
Of note, so far, you can still take advantage of all the features that the EU has forced Apple to add, as a developer (though not as a user), even if your company is outside the EU. This could of course change in the future, but US companies (other than the largest in the entire world, such as Apple and Google) do very much stand to benefit from what the EU is doing.

Not an expert on this by any means, but I always found this short series [1] quite fascinating on how cyanobacteria over a period of 200-300 million years coverted the planet from being methane based to being oxygen based, created the ozone layer and paved the way for photosynthesis, oxygen and life as we know it. I can't remember if I'm being too optimistic when I'm recalling bacteria doing something similar for the mass extinctions?

The writing in that episode is insane when you consider how much they managed to pack into such a short run time. The entire evolution of life and the building of society complete with religion, the story a parent raising Bingo before seeing her head off as an adult and then dying, and also two parents fighting over cheap furniture assembly and then making up. It all happens in just a few minutes and much of the story will certainly go over the heads of many young children watching the episode, but it ends up being perfectly enjoyable to everyone anyway.

* CentOS used to be a free rebranding of RHEL.

* IBM effectively cut off CentOS.

* Rocky Linux is the replacement free RHEL-compatible distro, but is higher effort to maintain than CentOS was.

* "Rocky Linux from CIQ" is a commercial product that is attempting to compete with RHEL, by being lower-cost essentially-RHEL while still satisfying some is-there-a-company-behind-it "compliance" checkboxes that companies require?

* "Rocky Linux from CIQ - Hardened" offers some supposed security improvements that vanilla RHEL doesn't?

Your answer is to literally add more of the thing creating the pollution. This is not a serious opinion.

I designed the sync engine for Things Cloud [0] over a decade ago. It seems to have worked out pretty well for them. (The linked page has some details about what it can do.)

When sync Just Works™, it's a magical thing.

One of the reason's my design has been reliable from its very first release, even across multiple refactors/rewrites (I believe it's currently on its third, this time to Swift) is that it uses a Git-like model internally with pervasive hashing. It's almost impossible for sync to work incorrectly (if it works at all).

Forcing people to ask or expecting them to perform a Web search for the meaningless jargon in your title is a cornerstone of HN posting.

Because estimating the world population wasn't the point of the paper, and extrapolating their results for the whole world wouldn't be very good science.

I haven't yet read the full blog post but so far my response is you can have this good parallel computer. See my previous HN comments the past months on building an M4 Mac mini supercomputer.

For example reverse engineering the Apple M3 Ultra GPU and Neural Engine instruction set and IOMMU and pages tables that prevent you from programming all processor cores in the chip (146 cores to over ten thousand depending on how you delineate what a core is) and making your own Abstract Syntax Tree to assembly compiler for these undocumented cores will unleash at least 50 trillion operations per second. I still have to benchmark this chip and make the roofline graphs for the M4 to be sure, it might be more.
