Thanks a trillion. I'm basically hoping to use the code I write targeting redbean + lua + sqlite in an OpenResty (nginx + their set of lua modules) environment without too much mental overhead or god forbid, a parallel implementation. This confirms I'll be good to go!

My question is, how portable is the lua code written for redbean to a GNU/Systemd environment running something like LuaJIT or whichever interpreter would be more compatible. Forgive my lack of knowledge of the lua ecosystem, and not checking out more of the redbean docs.

I'll second shermanblanca's recommendations to build and learn in public. And to build an audience on a variety of social media platforms.

I was lucky to have met my non tech cofounder at my previous employer. We remembered each other as great to work with and decided to strike out together.

What you're lookig for is super interesting to me though, and something I think about often from a variety of angles. If you ever wanna chat more in depth about you can find me email in my profile.

I'm told this game is less about what you know than about it is about who you know. And now we've met : )

Oh, and if you shop online for anything you could buy in person, start shopping IRL. Oodles of lifestyle biz or startup potential just from being friendly with store owners and employees. They love friendly tech wizards who want to solve their problems.

Yup, I need to find my favorite translation again.

This comment is some kind of spiritual gold. I would upvote twice if I could but since I can't...

The ancient Masters were profound and subtle. Their wisdom was unfathomable. There is no way to describe it; all we can describe is their appearance.

They were careful as someone crossing an iced-over stream. Alert as a warrior in enemy territory. Courteous as a guest. Fluid as melting ice. Shapable as a block of wood. Receptive as a valley. Clear as a glass of water.

Do you have the patience to wait till your mud settles and the water is clear? Can you remain unmoving till the right action arises by itself?

The Master doesn’t seek fulfillment.. Not seeking, not expecting, she is present, and can welcome all things.

If they are, in my experience they seem to be mediated by the endocannabinoid system and not primarily opiod release due to trauma and adrenaline.

The only times I've felt it were on the tail end of cross country meets (a 5k race pace) and it was quite nice. Kind of an electric Bliss in your whole body. Borderline arousing at the risk of oversharing lol.

That's more in line with how I think about it. All systems are distributed (okay not all), even my nice easy to reason about monoliths have to deal with outside events from various webhooks, or sync records with a customer's ERP, etc, etc.

Yup, we start by generating leads in house (based on your on boarding discussion we help with targeting as well). Then build / execute custom email and call prospecting campaigns on your behalf. All the way up to delivering your internal sales team an opportunity. If you're in B2B find us at Quantum-Quote.com : )

Look at monica crm https://github.com/monicahq/monica. I've yet to offer to start hosting it for people, but that could be a neat conversation piece for changing the tides there.

Hmmm, I cofounded the company I'm at now specifically because companies trying to grow in my industry are tired of chasing "qualified leads".

So what we do is the work of getting to a request for bid or quote with target customers and forward those off to our clients.

A lot of "engineering types" including myself can be semi blind to the value of the MBA types. Or even just sales in general.

However, I think the content in the article addresses all that. They mention to:

- frame a value proposition as value creation by solving a problem for your customer

- set appropriate pricing, charge your worth

- and to network professionaly

If you're an individual running a FLOSS consultancy thats great advice to get going with sales, marketing, and B2B credibility. YMMV but for someone starting out they might not be able to afford a digital sales team or a large enterprise contract with an agency to drive growth.

Yeah, it just hasn't moved fully west. I remember India proposing phasing out cash for "reasons". How soon till we start seeing serious pushes remains to be seen.

Nice. And thanks for remembering to ask the model, I'd forgotten. Seeing that "open launcher, ask question, get answer flow" made me jealous so maybe I'll spend some time bringing more rich functionality to rofi (a launcher on linux) this weekend.

It'd be sweet to have AI actors a few keystrokes away (base model non withstanding, I'm partial to more traditional statistical machine learning and the hypergraph concept opencog is built around myself)... maybe a syntax like "@actor:opt1:opt2: input string" would be good.

Then you could mess with things like the temperature of the response like: "@davinci-02:hot:short: input string" where hot is one of the available temp "tags" and short is one of the response length tags (order wouldn't matter).

Nope.

Yup.

Furious searches for BIOS only era hardware are taking place on ebay as we speak.

To use with a modified Linux kernel that emulates a bog standard Thinkpad uefi environment of course.

EDIT: I forgot to phrase this as a question - besides missing a QubesOS or KickSecure on top, is this a decent plan for airgapped stuff?

"Today, it seems like punishing shamelessness only increases social rewards to the transgressor. What’s changed?"

Welcome to the Aeon of Horus, we've been expecting you; we just weren't sure when. In the vocabulary of the Native American Hopi's the signs of the times point toward the fourth world.

As an alternative heads up, our entire experience of reality is subject to the whims of poorly understood chemical and physical homeostatic states. I just recently decided to pursue some genetic testing due to the night and day difference in my mood and motivation supplementing methylfolate (B9) and methylcobalamin (B12) had on me.

It turned a mild bout of depression and long standing un-medicated adhd on it's head to the point that I feel like telling anyone who is looking for a "strategy" to first make sure their biology is in order. It helps loads. In any case, if someone knows how sound the science around MTHFR is I'd love to be wrong on the internet and hear about it (about 1 in 5 is the rate I was quoted for abnormalities with that methylation cycle).

Yup and how much better is about 1%. "zstd and xz trade blows in their compression ratio. Recompressing all packages to zstd with our options yields a total ~0.8% increase in package size on all of our packages combined, but the decompression time for all packages saw a ~1300% speedup."

I think you're missing the point that in terms of tradeoffs people are willing to make: absolute compression ratio loses to 80% of the compression ability with big gains to decompression speed (aka include round trip cpu time if you want something to agree / disagree with, we're not talking about straight compression ratios).

Arch Linux is a case study in a large distributor of open source software that switched from xz compressed binaries to zstd and they didn't do it for teh lulz[0].

kappa architecture db(s), gossip protocols like secure scuttlebutt, garlic/onion routing protocols. I didn't really look at how "new" they are what with Ecclesiastes and all that.

But the question is great, what problem spaces are hot (or need to be!) and how can a deep understanding of algorithms and game theory solve them? How can we bridge the gap of large scale manufacturers with small scale production needs? How can we heal the wealth gap between us and the global south?

I'm hoping the answer involves at least a little category theory myself.

Build a profile that says as much on Hired.com and see who reaches out. So far a handful of companies that fit this bill pretty closely have shown up that I don't think I'd have found otherwise. It couldn't hurt and I'll be watching this thread closely for tips because while I don't mind interviews/ritual I just love small B2B shops.

yup https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=22094431

It's more fun to Google "INSERT HERE" intitle:privacy policy

Then you'd know they're talking about stuff like this https://www.salvationcoffeecompany.com/pages/privacy-policy

You would use "H" for BSSID or a hidden network I assume

I imagine ICE promised that they (and a bunch of other federal agencies) would crawl really far up their butt if they didn't accept that generous gift of money in exchange for the data access.

A ritual burning of the 4th amendment might've happened right after.

I dunno, I'm gonna try writing a pattern language to avoid getting tied up with one specific area. Friends can fill in the blanks. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Pattern_Language

It'd be neat to extend the warc format and tooling to support cached http responses for things like REST endpoints. Then you could make sure everything you did in a session is recorded for later use.

From the specification it would appear fairly straightforward once an approach was chosen...

Here's the relevant extract from the warc spec that informed my difficulty estimate - "The WARC (Web ARChive) file format offers a convention for concatenating multiple resource records (data objects), each consisting of a set of simple text headers and an arbitrary data block into one long file."

Edit: Upon 2 minutes of reflection I think the way to go for what I'm envisioning is some kind of browser session recording -> replayable archive solution.

Depending on what you think is fun, I found the author of this intro to CL[0] very engaging and fun. I'd still run through gigamonkey's practical common lisp for something different alongside it.

Then you should be set to start tackling the boring nerd stuff.

Why wasn't the name of the registry capitalized and how can different states have different timelines for removal appeals if it's a federal directory of some kind? Or does every state implement something similar but different?

She could also be a teacher('s aide from TFA) tomorrow. She appealed and won removal from the list.
