It's tangentially related through the theme of decentralization

- It's trying to be a very decentralized chat application

- The linked post is on nostr, which decentralized broadcast messaging protocol

- Bitcoin is a decentralized money protocol

- Nostr has the capability to send bitcoin between users via the lightning network via https://github.com/nostr-protocol/nips/blob/master/57.md

It takes more effort to use nostr than it does anything relatively more centralized like bluesky or mastodon. So people there are the kind who are dedicated to decentralized technologies & support bitcoin.

Jack is very strongly bitcoin only & anti "crypto". He sees Bitcoin alone as the Internet's missing money protocol. There is zero chance of what you suggest might happen.

Thank you. I wondered if there was something new. Enjoy your Kotlin journey!

I've been using detekt for years. Why is this suddenly the top article on HN?

As someone who built advanced turn by turn routing based on openstreetmap, problems like the u-turn in the article are hard. Giving good turn instructions for the last 2% is also hard, because so often it requires an appreciation of what the turn looks like from the driver's perspective, not just the curves and angles of the vertices.

This is an example of the common fallacy of conflating energy consumption with carbon-intensive energy generation.

As someone in his position 20+ years ago who did a lot of stretching and yoga for recovery, I can attest that this will only take you so far. Real gains come when you lift weights, which I started at the age of 49. The deadlift is a particularly good remedy for lumbar pain. Start on low weights with good form. Programmers develop weak lumbar support and stretching weak muscles can bring short term relief, but will not resolve the underlying issue. In time, stretching no longer becomes effective without over-stretching, which brings its own problems. Building that muscular support is key.

The early narrative around paying for coffee didn't pan out. But right now it is it's an extremely valuable global settlement system.

The Bitcoin whitepaper brought together a few existing technologies into something that had never before existed in the world - decentralised digital scarcity. This lead to a Cambrian explosion of new developments, most of which are pyramid schemes. But at its core, the invention is world-changing.

I was convinced this article was about the experience of being in your 40s, until I got to the end.

I guess Microsoft's attempt to use their superior marketshare to kill web standards back in the 90s is too long ago for the irony of this to resonate.

Now you mention it, yes. I've been seeing this for a few weeks. It seems often the most salient word in my search phrase is ignored.

Not Jennifer Anniston's character. The original girlfriend whom he went to the hypnotist with. She was cheating on him.

There's a great between-the-lines take in this movie. Bill Lumbergh is dating Peter's girlfriend on the Saturday. That's why he forces him into work ... and why the girlfriend also leaves a message.

That whole GOPATH thing is the reason I could never stick with Go. I'm curious to learn how it's less invasive now. Thanks for the heads up.

I remember names until that person is in front of me. Once they've gone away, I remember it again. It happens all the time. I guess there's a name for this?

I'm an employee. It's not my product. I didn't include a link because I thought it would be too spammy. It's tallygo.com.

At this time, we are a mix of mapbox + our own data.

I don't know why you need to sign up to see sample code. I'll give that feedback.

For mapping you'd use it over mapbox because it comes for free with your navigation package. For navigation you'd use it over mapbox because it has better turn-by-turn instructions, routes and traffic estimates.

The map is accurate throughout the world. The navigation product is specific to North America at this time, but it will expand.

TallyGo employee here. We have free map impressions for customers of our navigation SDK.

This happened to my friend in his 50s. He was a storage specialist working for a bank. Since they outsourced to IBM a few years ago he's been stacking shelves in a supermarket.

I'm not looking forward to the day a computer beats a human at this.

TallyGo is a startup offering a routing SDK for Android & iOS. The pricing is much more affordable and capability for app integration is strong. It has realtime traffic & advanced routing. (Disclaimer: I work as a developer at TallyGo)

You could take a look at TallyGo. They have a navigation SDK with reasonable pricing. (Disclaimer: I work there)

I spend a lot of time in Slack during the day, so I decided it should become my RSS reader. I created a dedicated team and used an RSS bot to subscribe. It works really well.

Otherwise known as "common sense". If this in an engine to promote common sense then we're just digging ourselves a bigger hole.

That is wonderful. If only my common gmail typo (gmamil) was as delightful, instead of being a vector for evil.

9/10 - Interesting problems; working remotely, to my own schedule; living in paradise; pants optional.

Prior to my current gig it was

8/10 - Interesting problems; well fitted-out office with great people to work with and coffee nearby; the opportunity to grow technical and people skills and mentor.

In the 90s I worked in public service doing accounting and marketing gigs. I'd rate those jobs about 3-4/10. So I'm pretty happy with the transition.

This is a pet hate of mine too. When I hear this phrase I'm automatically inclined to disagree. I mentally hear it as "I'm not prepared to think enough".

That's beautiful.

Interesting that they were working on a scalaz course and book in 2011. I guess that became Functional Programming in Scala. I'd still like a course on scalaz.

It goes for all primitive parameters. I can't tell you how many days I've burnt on this kind of bug. But I can tell you it stole 3 hours of my time yesterday. https://twitter.com/badgerhunt/status/587787102684758016
