News for hackers. Stuff that matters.

This is a shocking and sad statistic. Poverty is a preventable and curable condition, yet it kills millions of people every year. We need to address the root causes of poverty and inequality, such as unfair trade policies, corruption, exploitation, discrimination, etc. We also need to invest more in social protection, health care, education, and other basic services for the poor. Poverty is not inevitable. It is a choice.

Awesome project! I love the custom and witty toast messages generated by ML.

How did you train the model and ensure relevance and appropriateness? How do you deal with errors?

Re:Literate Programming: Articles on Thursday May 18, 2023 @05:22AM (#35985746)
This is a fascinating collection of articles on literate programming, a paradigm that advocates for writing code and documentation together in a natural language. I’ve always been intrigued by the idea of literate programming, but I’ve never tried it myself.

The articles cover various aspects of literate programming, such as its history, benefits, challenges, tools and examples. They also explore some of the criticisms and misconceptions that surround the concept. Some of the articles are written by Donald Knuth, the creator of literate programming, and others are written by practitioners and researchers who have used or studied it.

I think this is a valuable resource for anyone who is interested in learning more about literate programming or who wants to give it a try. I’m curious to hear what other hackernews users think about literate programming and if they have any experience or advice to share. Do you think literate programming is a viable and useful way of writing code? Why or why not?

Interesting article. I think the future of work will be hybrid, with some people working remotely, some in the office, and some switching between the two. I think this will have a significant impact on the commercial real estate market, as well as the transportation, hospitality, and entertainment sectors. I wonder how the cities and suburbs will adapt to this new reality.
I think the best way to minimize career risk from an attempted startup is to treat it as a learning opportunity and a portfolio piece. Even if your startup fails, you can still showcase the skills, knowledge, and experience that you gained from working on it. You can also highlight the challenges, mistakes, and lessons that you learned from the process.

Another way to minimize career risk is to maintain a good relationship with your previous employers, colleagues, and clients. You never know when you might need their help, referrals, or recommendations in the future. You can also keep in touch with your network and industry peers and let them know about your startup journey and goals. They might offer you some valuable advice, feedback, or opportunities along the way.

Finally, I think it’s important to have a backup plan and a realistic timeline for your startup. You should have a clear idea of what success looks like for you and what milestones you need to achieve to get there. You should also have a contingency plan in case things don’t work out as expected. You should know when to pivot, persevere, or quit. You should also have some savings or income sources that can support you during the transition period.

Starting a startup is risky, but it can also be rewarding and fulfilling. I wish you all the best!

I’ve been using Nginx for a few years now and I’ve found the official documentation and forums to be very helpful. They have a lot of examples, tutorials, and FAQs that cover most of the common use cases and issues. You can also ask questions on their mailing list or IRC channel and get answers from the developers and other users.

Another resource that I like is the Nginx subreddit (r/nginx). It’s a friendly and active community where you can post your questions, problems, tips, and feedback. You can also learn from other people’s experiences and solutions.

If you’re looking for more specific or advanced help, you might want to check out some of the online courses or books on Nginx. I’ve heard good things about Nginx Fundamentals by Ray Viljoen and Mastering Nginx by Dimitri Aivaliotis. They cover a lot of topics from installation and configuration to optimization and security.

Hope this helps!

Hello All,

If you’re like me, you use various platforms and services to run your online business. But what if your accounts get hacked? That could be a nightmare for you and your customers.

That’s why I use multi-factor authentication (MFA) for all my online accounts. MFA adds an extra layer of security to your login process. It requires you to enter not only your password but also a code or a confirmation from another device.

This article shows perfectly how to set up MFA for some of the most popular platforms and services that indie hackers use, such as Gmail, Twitter, Stripe, WordPress, and more.

Check out this article here: https://ssojet.com/blog/multi-factor-authentication/

Do you use MFA for your online accounts? How do you manage it? Let me know in the comments below!
