It was a crazy time for sure. I remember going to a few of the after-work and investment networking parties in SF (I can’t remember what they were called though). I’m not sure if such things still exist? You turned up, got a colored sticky badge (investor, seeking investment or neutral) and drank a lot and networked around the party.

I flew over from Europe a couple of times to meet with various dotcom startups regarding opportunities across the pond.

It was fascinating seeing the ecosystem in this bullish boom time and then also watch it collapse. I still have a large number of the physical business cards I collected at such networking events.

I remember the effect of the bubble bursting and collapse of so many of these companies as the investment money disappeared. Any projects around social topics, training and education, and other “soft” topics were first to die.

It taught me that you can only work in such verticals in a boom. You need to get out in a timely manner before the crunch comes.

Since then I’ve always played it safe. I focused on what I consider to be “recession proof” industry verticals.

It got me through the 2008 crash and I think it should now get me through this coming one.
This expectation is according to the model that matches reality.
While the parent comment may be a little extreme, I would still agree soft skills have been taken too far to the point of neglecting real engineering. Yeah of course don't be a dick to those around you. But there's one thing to be pleasant to coworkers and another thing to make the whole business about socially engineering each other to "rise up the ladder". The latter is, in my opinion, fake as fuck and quite toxic.

You can have pretty normal temperament and be a decent engineer, but if you aren't positive 110% of the time, always sucking up to management, always accepting more work, always subtly gaming those around you, then apparently you're a "bad engineer" for not understanding the "business". I might be crazy but that shit is not normal. Go play the game if you want to but it is not normal.
I think you are confusing Erdogan with Imamoglu. Imamoglu has photographs, classmates, there is no doubt that he attended college. His diploma was anulled because he transferred initially from a different college. He spent 4 years at the Istanbul uni, attended classes, passed the exams, there is no doubt in that.

On the other hand, Erdogan does not have a single photograph during his university years, no classmates to back his story. He started a two year degree, but there is no evidence he attended a four year program.
A public notary issued a same as original certification on a disputed document. The original diploma of erdogan cannot be found. Looking at the date of the diploma, the university faculty didn't even exist yet.

I try to get an €2 coin to give my child a physical weekly allowance. Also, the trash bin only accepts an €1 coin. Supermarkets have cards asking customers for spare coins. They don't give them back unless they really have to.

Supermarkets and ATMs do give €50 easily, its everything below that becomes hard to get. So I hoard everything else, so do most other people, and bad money starts driving out good money in an unexpected way.

> How many good mainland Chinese animated films can anyone name?

Lucky Dragon (2009): https://www.imdb.com/title/tt5269384/

Absolutely fantastic. But, like with any movie industry, you need to look for pearls as the majority is mediocre. New Chinese animations are very dynamic in terms of graphics, but often the plot falls behind. It's the same with feature movies.
Lots of this rings true. Especially the "Solutions to plateaus are straightforward but not easy." part. So much of this psychological - both in being objective with your failings and in having to live with them every day until you fix them.

I wasn't very convinced by his arguments - the main one being:

Senior NASA officials earlier this month confirmed, publicly and on the record, that the decision was made by the space agency in the best interests of the International Space Station Program. Not for political reasons.

To be a little snarky here - so Senior NASA officials: honest, Musk: liar?

If, hypothetically, NASA was pressured for political reasons, I don't think Senior NASA officials would reveal it to the public anyway. So the fact that they said it's not for political reasons doesn't really prove anything for either side of the argument.
I get the security concerns, and you're right - opening up iMessage integration to third-party devices would require a serious rethink of Apple's security model. But at what point does -security- become a convenient excuse for anti-competitive behavior?

Everyone wanted the democrat to let the shutdown happen, according to the polls. That could have given them bargaining power. But the republicans found enough traitors to vote for their law with no debate whatsoever.

As I mentioned in my previous comment (did you read it?) that strategy of doing nothing doesn't work, as they are losing popularity faster than the republicans. People see them idling and smiling while the GOP destroys the country and they don't like that, at all.

Eliminating Hiring Bias with MokaHR
In hiring, bias—whether conscious or unconscious—can be a huge obstacle to building diverse teams. Research consistently shows that diverse teams outperform homogeneous ones in creativity, problem-solving, and overall business success. But how can companies actually achieve unbiased hiring in practice?

At MokaHR, we’re tackling this challenge head-on with our applicant management software, designed to create fair and transparent recruitment processes that eliminate bias and promote inclusivity. Here’s how technology can make hiring fairer and more effective.

The Challenge: Unconscious Bias in Hiring

Even with the best intentions, traditional hiring practices often favor certain demographics due to implicit biases in resume screening, interviews, and decision-making. Many companies struggle with ensuring consistency and fairness, especially when hiring at scale. This results in missed opportunities to build diverse, high-performing teams.

The Solution: Data-Driven Hiring Decisions

MokaHR automates and standardizes key parts of the hiring process to ensure candidates are evaluated on skills and experience rather than subjective factors. Our platform enables:

Structured interviews with predefined questions and scoring criteria, reducing the influence of personal bias.

Blind resume screening, which removes identifying details to prevent unconscious preferences based on name, gender, or background.

Advanced analytics to track diversity metrics and hiring trends, allowing companies to identify and address gaps in their recruitment strategy.

Improving the Candidate Experience

An inclusive hiring process isn’t just about removing bias—it’s also about making the experience better for candidates. MokaHR provides:

Real-time application tracking, so candidates know where they stand.

Automated communication, reducing ghosting and improving engagement.

A user-friendly interface, making it easier for diverse candidates to apply without unnecessary hurdles.

Building a Culture of Inclusivity

Technology is a tool, but true inclusivity requires commitment from leadership and hiring teams. Companies should pair recruitment software with diversity training, transparent hiring policies, and regular audits of their hiring practices.

Why This Matters for the Future of Work

As AI continues to shape recruitment, it’s critical that hiring tools are built to enhance fairness rather than reinforce biases. MokaHR’s approach combines automation with a human-centric focus, ensuring that hiring remains both efficient and equitable.

Companies that prioritize inclusivity not only build stronger teams but also create workplaces where innovation thrives. If you’re looking to refine your hiring process and remove bias, check out how MokaHR is making a difference.

What’s your take? Have you encountered biases in hiring, and how do you think technology can help solve them?

Hello,

You can also have a look at https://stacktape.com (full disclosure: I'm a founder). It's a Heroku-like PaaS that deploys to your own AWS account.

We support both serverless and container-based workloads (Fargate and EC2), and many AWS infrastructure (RDS, Aurora, MongoDb, Redis, OpenSearch - ElasticSearch, Bastion servers, etc.).

We're IaC-first but also provide a UI for.

We can do a hans-on assistance with the first deployment, and can also do a custom pricing (as you are a non-profit).
This is interesting, but it raises concerns about the integrity of timestamps on Bluesky. Allowing backdated posts could lead to misuse, such as manipulating historical context or creating a false impression of long-term presence on the platform.

On the other hand, it could be useful for users who want to maintain a consistent archive of their content across platforms. But the question remains: should platforms allow this kind of timestamp manipulation?
Cursors are generally rendered with a different mechanism than the rest of the screen. What you are describing sounds a lot like a problem with VRR.
All the time. Nothing political about the Punch mission, or the current solar maximum spewing out a bunch of flares last year. Actually it's a bit of a shame the Punch mission wasn't launched sooner, so we could see amazing flares in 3D. But that's just me, I like sun stuff.

The point is, if you seek political stuff you'll find it, even a political spin on a recent flare that is being yet again compared to the Carrington Event. I'm here for the sun stuff and other space stuff. I'm here all the time, before and after the dust settles. I'm here for the "boring" stuff. If you have to ask that question, you're a tourist. Sorry if it comes across as gatekeeping. But it really looks like that to me.

Sure the thing's been politically amplified into oblivion by the parties involved. That doesn't mean ranting about the gulf of america and all the other things the author doesn't like about the current political situation in that arstechnica article, is a good suggestion to be bumped into a top comment. Neither is burying exodust's comment which I think has a very good point that I agree with.

Quote from the arstechnica article: "This is why we can't have nice things.". Yes it is. This is exactly it. Guess I'll just have to wait for the tourists to go elsewhere. Anyone who came for political reasons and stayed for the boring stuff is very much welcome, as always.
The product is great. We’re using it since 2023. Very happy.

Regarding your google comment: Google builds Google products that can also be used by other people. I am pretty confident they cannot build something like Wiz. And not because they don’t have researchers and developers.

> As a modern compromise, I think the US should allow people [...]

Your compromise would probably work well as a compromise, but honestly, it feels a bit superfluous to have all those restrictions, when you have voters who can apply any criterion they like anyway.

Voters can already resolve by themselves to vote only for people who are native born, or who are of a certain age, or under a certain age, or who like the right football team, or have the right haircolour.
This is an impressive project! Providing free access to such a massive dataset of pre-computed travel times could be a game-changer for researchers and policymakers who rely on spatial accessibility data but often face high costs with commercial providers.

The technical approach is also fascinating—using static Parquet files on R2 instead of a traditional database keeps costs low while maintaining accessibility via SQL and DuckDB. Offloading computation to GitHub Actions is a clever way to handle large-scale processing efficiently.

It'll be interesting to see how this evolves, especially with the potential addition of traffic-aware travel times. Great work!

> Regardless of how you feel, a country should be able to set its own policies.

And in a democracy that means that voters should be able to set the policies.

Voters can already resolve by themselves to vote only for people who are native born, or who are of a certain age, or under a certain age, or who like the right football team, or have the right haircolour.

We don't need to further restrict who voters can and can not vote for.

Unless you don't trust voters. But then, why have a democracy in the first place?
You might find that strange and disagree with it with a flawed analogy but I've merely reported the official stance of the US Copyright Office and legal precedents. See, for instance, this overview with further references:

https://www.sidley.com/en/insights/newsupdates/2025/02/us-co...

"Prompts Are Generally Insufficient to Make AI Output Copyrightable"

If you don't trust this summary, read the US Copyright Office report for yourself. The gist of the position is that prompts are not specific enough and do not lead to deterministic output.

On a side note, I find it weird that even on HN people automatically assume you're only expressing a personal opinion, yet in all fairness I should have included some references from the start.
That has nothing to do with USB-C, but with the USB 3+ standard, AFAIK Apple uses Thunderbolt protocol that is compatible with USB but it has less optional features than USB protocol.
This looks like a handy tool, especially for catching unintended global variable access in environments like Jupyter notebooks, where scope bugs can easily creep in. The ability to disassemble functions and analyze their dependencies could be particularly useful for debugging and enforcing best practices in functional programming, as seen in JAX.

Would be interesting to see how it compares to static analysis tools like mypy or linters—does it catch edge cases they might miss? Nice work!
I expect most Emacs users are computer programmers. Does this mean that computer programming is, in some sense, inherently related to Emacs? Does it make sense to conflate "programmers" and "Emacs users"?
Yes, the party that came first and gained a lot is pro-independence.

The party that came second and gained a lot, too, is also pro-independence but more rapid with better relations with the US, as mentioned, so it seems that Trump's bluster has influenced things but perhaps not the way Denmark would like to...

When the debate effectively shifts from "should we become independent" to "how quickly should we achieve independence" (i.e. not "if" but "how") then I'd say that it's going well for the US and badly for Denmark, despite the European news coeverage.

I can understand someone would want that level of granularity.

Personally if I don't want it on my watch I also don't want it on my phone, so I simply disable all notifications at the app level.

> I don't think you can escape iPhone Android duopoly in the short term.

You wouldn't need to, if regulations were removed, as you would just straight up copy the iPhone/Android devices. You'd become a true competitor, not be left trying to establish an entirely new parallel market.

But currently, true competition is illegal in this space. Police will be knocking down your doors if you so much as even consider thinking about competing – actually competing – with the iPhone. All you can do is kind create something that is sort of similar, but not really, and that's not going to fly in the marketplace. The market wants iPhones, not something that might passingly look like an iPhone if you squint hard enough, but is entirely different in almost every other way.
