I kind of love this idea. How do you do this, especially if you're throwing originals away, in a frustratingly and methodically legal way?

Have any of you tried to chase the microvm train instead of docker on MacOS? Thus far, it feels like this is a deeply lost cause with a passing hope that somehow you can hack a solution to nested virtualization and drop into a KVM-style exp

These kinds of threads are always so hard to decipher. Without disclosing the terms and details MIT is allegedly providing, you just have to assume the one side complaining is telling the truth when there's almost certainly two sides t

Can you explain what makes this so clear?

I'm really curious, where did you find your consulting opportunities? And what did you precisely consult on?

I'd love to know how you pulled this off...

It turned out that was the secret. My self-help book is honestly more of a text message.

This probably sounds absurd, but I wake up at 4:30 AM to start my day every day and I used to be convinced I could only really be effective after waking up at 9 AM.

That's the question I had. Ostensibly, people are giving away a dollar for 98 cents right now. I'm confused about why anyone would want to do that unless they thought that tethered dollar isn't actually worth a real US dollar

I'm pretty curious about how and where Twitter employees were distributed. For a company ostensibly worth $44 billion, having 7,500 staff feels pretty damn lean. It feels like Musk isn't just purging people, he's purging the

Wow. Reading through Wolfram's post, I stopped and decided to listen to one of his livestreamed software design sessions. Who knows what the right model is, but it's very very clear from at least this video ( https://you

This is incredible work, honestly. Is the theory here that humans seem to enjoy an intuitive understanding of protein folding? I seem to remember an online game (maybe https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foldit ) that exploit

This is a wonderfully simple scheme to split up keys between parties, but this still involves a party (the one that made the key) at some point knowing the key. This scheme implies you trust this distributor not to make copies of the key fo

Happy Diwali! Being in the bay area, I'm always curious why Diwali doesn't invite more burning-man-style light shows! To be fair to my neighbors, and in lieu of the wild hn-front-page-light-show, here's lighting a small diya

Integration testing of the brain during surgery? I wonder if the apparatus for this kind of complex testing can be simulated. Seems incredibly powerful....

I ran a variation of something like this myself for years. Eventually, the site was routinely being used for spam-style (e.g., a link to some illegal data, or some advertisement to embed somewhere, etc.) links. And when I took the site down

Corporations that provide critical services that would otherwise be hard to find elsewhere (Stripe, perhaps) use these legal threats to completely shut their customers out of their closed ecosystems. If you hold them to account, you pay a s

I'm mildly blown away to read, 'And the NGINX community is not very active, and development tends to be “behind closed doors”.' Is this a reflection of the company, nginx (now owned by F5) going the way of an Oracle-style tak

I'm really curious what will happen with the export ban here. Inevitably, the blow back will be alternatives that emerge in markets that are not the United States. I'm curious if there are any non-US GPU contenders on the horizon?

If the value of the currency has anything to do with the value of the energy spent, then there may be a significant shift away from a protected base value. And let's be clear, I'm thrilled. Waiting for those eBay GPUs as I write

As an employee of a post-seed, immediately-pre-series-a company, I've wondered if the cap table should always be public. It seems like hiding ownership is potentially highly deceptive, but I'm looking at this from the employee per

I've been eagerly waiting for this to happen for a while. Here's picking up GPUs at fire sales for months and maybe years to come.

Out here in the Bay Area, I've been trying to figure out how to efficiently (and interestingly) use a 10gbe FTTH symmetric setup from Sonic. It's surprisingly hard to find anything for the thrifty consumer that can consume this ki

What an odd announcement. Is NIST not sure about the patents relating to their selected winners? "NIST expects to execute the various agreements prior to publishing the standard. If the agreements are not executed by the end of 2022,

I've noticed over the years, the primary failure mode for my lenses is the coating being scratched. I wonder if anyone has a good way to have that coating repaired or replaced?

And changing this link to a view-only authorization. It appears the bug is fixed.

This may not be the most valuable comment, but my goodness, the quality of this writeup and it's interactive descriptions of complex mechanical components AND their interactions is radically impressive. The treatment of complex topics
