Utilized workers to create one of the fastest website analytics tool after Google Analytics: https://rapidanalytics.io (still in development).

That’s great.

Nothing is never neutral so it’s best to show different sides of issues to make readers figure it out themselves (as easily as possible, but not as opinionated as popular news outlets)

If you ask, they'll give you access if you have a HS email... at least thats what I did sometime last year.

Joe initially said he didn't want to go to Spotify because they don't pay creators.

I guess a few million made that thought go away.

This is exactly why I was so excited that so many people found https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23220081 interesting.

I do HTML from scratch and Flask w/HTML templates at most. Adding a couple of CSS files is all I'm looking towards, not a bunch of weird React code (which imo looks ugly).

Cool!

Love dark blacks on OLED.

However sometimes a dark navy blue would be better.

Weird that Apple does this proxying... not going to open up that News app.

CloudKitchens fixes this.

I also find this really weird: its like load balancing between https://server1.example.com and https://server2.example.com instead of using a proper load balancer under the hood to get https://example.com

Surprised no one is talking about how this is Walmart's version of AmazonBasics...

Here are my thoughts: It's interesting to see big online retailers make their own cheap brands to monopolize their sales

Training kids like this reminds me of training AI itself:

Make the reward getting a better grade and the kid will only optimize for that. Eventually the kid (the agent) will be out in the wild and they will have a weak understanding of what the reward is and how to optimize for it (it will be harder for a fine-tuned kid to do domain adaptation towards different and more abstract fields and problems).

I've never seen a company aggressively hire as much as Cruise did in the last 3 years.

Obviously this is a bad thing, but not entirely surprising they had to hold the brakes during this time.

Good explanation, thanks!

What exactly does Deno do? I still can't figure it out: is it a secure version of Node, if so, how?

Love these sort of explanations on how companies and people run their infra. Great job KA!

Definitely: “hackers phone number” is an oxymoron, because no somewhat experienced hacker would ever give out their personal number.

Don’t be shocked if it’s some twilio or google voice number

Afaik, bitcoin addresses are easily interchangeable, so you can make a unique one every-time someone transfers it to the poker site.

So how can CB find out if you're using it on poker?

Here's some context: both you, me and a majority of HN readers have decent lives and cushy tech jobs (I'm a student and have the luxury of coding all day).

Think of everyone else: those relatively regular/average people in America, the average Joe. They have bills to pay for, but living paycheck to paycheck, they can't pay any of it. So now they're seeing whats the best way to get income. Unemployment check? Website is down. Where to get food? Food banks are barely sustaining.

Yes, there's definitely a reduction of stress in some areas, but I believe that thinking of everyone, I mean everyone not just in tech, makes you realize that as a whole, a lot of people are stressed out of their minds when this can end.

Fairly sure the country as a whole is more stressed. Economy and media at least portray that.

+1 on this. Get a nice server with some GPUs and you'd save a lot more than paying the super expensive costs on cloud.

Well, given that I am using Docker it doesn't really matter much... but the bigger issue is: GCP in the past has completely blocked access from accounts when they detect random things.

Unless I meet their demands, my entire infra is gone/down for days, which I can't deal with.

Founder of a growing startup:

Started with a cluster of Raspberry Pis and expanded onto an old desktop. Primarily did this for cost (raspberry pis alone were more powerful than a GCP $35/mo instance). Everything was fine until I needed GPUs/handling more traffic than those Raspberrys could handle. So I expanded by including cloud instances in my Docker Swarm cluster (tidbit: Using Traefik and WireGuard)

So half on-prem half in the cloud. Honestly just scared GCP might one day cancel my account and I'll lose all my data unless I meet their demands (has happened in the past) so that half on-prem stores most of the data.

This is AUD. In either case, I'm not entirely surprised.

I'm repeating what many have said before: If you're a legit pro / enterprise, the value behind the Mac Pro is probably a lot more than the minuscule amount you'd pay.

For comparison, I've made 10x from my MBP, so I'd say the value and quality was worth it.

Edit: Ok, yes obviously you shouldn't be comparing the price of your work with your laptop of choice: but the experience and quality was definitely worth it more than the Dell XPS. I mostly ssh/use sublime into bigger servers, but the quality of Macs in general are so good that I don't put much focus on performance.

What’s the differentiate between this and the million other simple note taking apps like write.as

I use a CI system like Buildkite to build on my Raspberry Pis and then consequently deploy them via Docker Swarm. Working well so far.

Although in a similar HN thread a few days ago, people pointed out that docker buildkit does do cross-architecture compilation, which has been slow, but works on anything!

Email people. Did that as a Junior and landed multiple internships.

Might be harder given the situation, but no harm getting to know your industry.

Swarm is dead in the water.

No progress and there's a ton of basic features that aren't being supported. In my use I have to literally remove every single node and reset the cluster if 1 goes down (I run into some weird grpc error via swarm). Combined with weak GPU support.... its there for basic use, but not for anything "intermediate" or higher.

Previously I've done this, but found it takes a bunch of time. I'll give it another go, though and see how it goes!

I can attest to RPI i/o speed: its horrible. Combined with the fact that I have to build Docker containers on the RPIs themselves(because of arm), its more of a hassle than a cool add-on (to be clear I'm running Docker Swarm in a way that isn't too different from the setup of OP).

Only reason I can see RPIs in kubernetes is if you're exclusively using ARM everywhere and/or are running some distributed cluster among different locations (like Chick-fil-a).
