Too late now!
When creating an account, there should be a short screen with the salient points from the guidelines to follow.
eSIM apps are available on the app store where you can purchase an eSIM in any country these days.
Elon Musk's Meta VR moment is definitely Optimus.

If anyone wants to know why he bothered to do this, he wrote another article explaining: https://maplant.com/2025-02-17-Why-I%27m-Writing-a-Scheme-Im...
Are they paying you as well as your comment makes it sound? That was a ton of lingo and I'm used to lingo!

He does have to turn a profit on what he's buying. You want spot price? Oddly enough, in California and maybe other states, a pawn shop will give you spot price.
Makes total sense, bandwidth on this scale is expensive.
Re:Meta Joins Kotlin Foundation on Tuesday July 01, 2025 @01:04AM (#44430744)
Kotlin is awesome, good on Meta.
I still have my iPhone 12 Pro that I preordered and got in release day and it still does everything I can ask of it, though the latest Call of Duty runs a bit slow, which is making me want to upgrade. Them not releasing a smart Siri that answers to more than just basic prompts is really hurting them and I can see why investors sued them. There's no reason for me to have to use ChatGPT on an iPhone, I should be able to talk to Siri like she's an actual personal assistant and not just an easier way to check the weather and set a timer.
Well they can't force you to regurgitate the knowledge you got there or remove it from your resume, so big deal.

Question, how does DiceDB differ from Redis pub/sub? https://redis.io/docs/latest/develop/interact/pubsub/
Great compensation though!
You don't see software going for $8000 frequently! Wow!

Exercise goes a long way to keep up energy levels after work.
Any chance of something like this being available for Java/Kotlin on JVM?
This happens all the time and is super irksome. Being able to step backwards as well as forwards is super cool. Also, being able to do that with a loop using a slider is cool.

Re:Jeep Owners Fed Up with In-Car Pop-Up Ads on Wednesday March 05, 2025 @04:34PM (#43272833)
This is absurd, they are attempting to turn your Car into a Cable TV set top box. Cable used to be ad free too! That's one of the biggest reasons everyone fled to Netflix.
Re:There Was a Texas Lottery Arbitrage on Wednesday March 05, 2025 @04:31PM (#43272778)
It's not really helping those poor people when those same lotteries are then bought by large corporations for profit.
Re:There Was a Texas Lottery Arbitrage on Wednesday March 05, 2025 @01:53PM (#43270646)
For the same reason corporations shouldn't be purchasing Residential Real Estate (individual houses) it destroys the market for the consumers its intended to serve.

Doesn't MacOS support these things? I'm sure Apple runs these on their datacenters somehow?
Re:Ask HN: A question about mentoring a junior developer on Monday March 03, 2025 @08:57PM (#43249298)
Dude, your job is to mentor, so you mentor. You work for a company, and the whole company is also your team.
How far were you into building the game before you began to approach publishers? YC speaks frequently about investing in the founders, and not the idea---but then dives right into well you need to have revenue and/or users and it's a bit of a double-standard---so I'm curious what stage you were at when you started talking to publishers and what state your product was in when you finally signed a deal.
It's remarkable because there are a ton of vertical farming setups in and around large cities in unremarkable warehouses that got this right, but they're having issues with small greenhouses and $500mm.

That would be in interesting direction for our tech to go, everything grown organically including space structures.
Re:ChatGPT Clicks Convert 6.8X Higher Than Google Organic on Tuesday February 25, 2025 @05:24PM (#43178340)
There just isn't anywhere near enough data in this post to make any conclusions at all, especially about click conversations, which are notoriously fickle.
Re:I helped fix sleep-wake hangs on Linux with AMD GPUs on Monday February 17, 2025 @02:03PM (#43082213)
Remarkable that it's 2025 and laptop sleep/suspend still doesn't work right on linux. I think the first time I encountered this was probably 15 years ago now?
Re:My Life in Weeks on Saturday February 15, 2025 @05:35PM (#43063134)
And the best part of it is that there's really only about 4000 weeks for any one of us! It's an interesting metric.
