for the love of god do not use clojure for game dev

absolutely not recommended even for solo

i would not recommend it for any sort of web app either

clojure/atomic is ovverated

yup!

i found it https://data-star.dev/

never used it curious to know if anybody have

there was actually another library but alpine ajax is close tooo

anybody remember there was a library that combined htmx + alpinejs as one ?

not sure i get what this article's point is

its the go to pattern because its the most resilient and intuitive

we've been using emails for a long time and it makes sense that it became the go to authentication method

what is the TTS model you are using

Problem is Hetzner has such stringent user verification its tough to get hosting on there.

You don't even need to use Hetzner, I'm actually quite surprised they are spending 2k on DB. For the env isolation i understand they need ec2 but...

it shouldn't cost anywhere that amount, for instance I have 3 million users on a $40/month digital ocean VPS with just Django + Postgres and I have far more reads and writes.

for env isolation you could spin up a $5/month VPS and shut it down when idle

ah I see that might be a bit more tricky. I was wondering why the costs were so high.

For example, I serve roughly 3 million users on a $40/month VPS. I only run Postgres + Django, if I use Supabase and all these other fancy cloud SaaS I wouldn't be able to sustain it as the costs would increase 10~20x fold.

the only way is to lower your operating costs but you are correct ppl on the internet simply do not like paying for stuff even donating is a tough ask.

even getting people to click on affiliate links that won't cost them anything I find is tough as most people remove the referral link or purchase on another device probably out of privacy concerns.

LMAO this is some low effort LLM

Thank you for this comment.

it would be like committing terrorism using silicon wafers

you would have to infiltrate an extremely guarded facility

you would somehow have to bypass QA

its not like somebody on the assembly line for a new protein drug sprinkles a dose of PCP

one potential dual use could be somebody modifying a popular fruit with birds and then droppin seeds at the local organic farm fair

and then when those seeds are consumed by birds they produce poop dangerous for other animals to consume

you could absolutely screw around with the ecosystem, like whoever has access to this programmable "bio-wafer" will be able to play god totally undetected.

the problem is that "bio-wafer" manufacturing process will be very tough and regulated like the CNC machines used to manufacture jet engines depriving certain countries from being able to churn out their own jet engines

they can generate proteins that bind to specific structures with high accuracy, achieving true cell-specificity and avoiding unwanted pleiotropic effects involves many more variables beyond just protein-protein interactions. These tools are more about expanding our ability to target previously "undruggable" proteins rather than solving the cell-specificity problem outright. however they could be valuable components in developing more targeted therapies when combined with comprehensive research on pleiotropic effects across multiple omics levels. real breakthrough will come from integrating these protein design capabilities with a deeper understanding of complex biological systems and developing strategies for precise delivery and regulation of these novel proteins in vivo.

i studied molecular biology and i couldn't help contain my excitement when it was able to bind to another protein. I dont think HN realizes how huge this is. With this level of accuracy, not only can we understand the full mysteries of ourselves but literally any biological entity.

With that level of understanding, its easy to fabricate special medicines that target specific biochem pathways, but more exciting is that we can literally "code in 3d world". We'll be able to print and grow organs in mass. We'll be able to design structures that will bind to target proteins responsible for certain traits. The potential boon to human medicine will be enormous.

I got like goosebumps after watching that video because I understood the implications of being able to predict folds and now generate proteins that will bind to any protein we choose!!!!

We just might have discovered a panacea of sorts and Demis and his team should receive the Nobel Prize.

I'm just ecstatic that we'll see so much drastic improvement in human medicine and importantly how accessible they will be with this new discovery.

its racist to suggest Canadians are not happy with the surge in Indian population?

your view seems just a contrarian take to "Indian immigration surge is a problem" by mentioning currently irrelevant topics.

Not convinced its a lifeline.

I mean the parent is trying to justify the current situation in canada by bringing up aboriginals centuries ago seems clearly ideological

Definitely not what the rest of us are discussing.

why dont you go find the info you need you will see the stats show which country the surge is from.

struggling with immigration from india is very real in Canada and we can't keep censoring or avoiding it because its uncomfortable

earthquakes frequently makes poor real estate

seems like a stretch to me. i didnt massacre the natives i wasnt even around back then

to stay in us long tern i need income from us employer to stay and receive benefits for canadians

or the employer is your own startup.

trust me 200k wasnt enough in vancouver downtown (i rent)

ex) Eastern european Canadians vs Irish Canadians vs British Canadians vs French Canadian. Totally different vibes and even culture event though they look similar.

color of skin isnt the issue, its who contributes to taxes and society in balance so as many surface areas can be served without anyone feeling left out

singapore's multiculturalism works but why doesnt Japan's?

can you elaborate please? I am very curious to know how American system differs.

because its clear that whatever you guys have its working

i hope the rent in montreal goes down to justify living there. the road is in awful shape which makes driving tough. public infrastructure is barely functional. i dont even know about the healthcare there but i assume its overloaded too.

the weather tax too doesn't make sense. extremely cold and hot weather. at least in BC its functional and get little snow.

i donno where to go tbh, hoping to land a remote gig somehow but job market is super tough.

My dream right now is living in East Asia working remotely earning USD. Canada has remained stagnant while that region surpassed it in many areas.

One of the major criticisms of Canadian medical system (from doctors educated outside Canada and have gone through it) is how superficial and generic it is. It lacks the depth of its American counterparts which must familiarize with the ethnic specifics (for example, whites with Irish have different medical profile than whites with Ukranian background) where as Canadian system makes no such efforts.

One of the saddest most recent example that coincides with the surge of immigration from India was the Canadian medical system being DDOS'd essentially forcing MAID onto those that could've been absolutely saved had it not been for the long queue.

Nobody should have to wait for 10+ hours in emergency rooms to see a overworked doctor who makes mistakes.

Canada's selling point was a public healthcare system that simply is outdated and has to use private healthcare with the changing demographic and population surge.

If Canada can't even provide adequate universal healthcare with its hefty taxes, then what is it actually good for? We can't even own guns because using them in self defence gets your life ruined by the media. Entrepreneurs and best engineers all work for Americans.

There is a wide discontent with Canada but healthcare has been the biggest flashpoint for politics but I have no faith. For example, it took the American DOJ to identify and fine Canadian banks for money laundering.

I'm not sure what that has to do with this thread.

Same. It's completed flooded. I know ppl won't even allow the remotest criticism of immigration on HN but trust me Canadians are fed up with the huge surge from India.

I've even heard people lament saying they miss Chinese international students who would spend a lot of money, creating jobs but these new Indian "students" just show up at food banks taking everything, overcrowding homes, taking advantage of government benefits, jobs meant for new graduates, nepotism, just DDOSing the whole Canadian infrastructure as a whole is the popular opinion.

I don't know what to do about it and neither do the politicians. I'm not exactly thrilled to be importing this many people from India, a country which I frankly don't have any interest or passion for.

Everyday I just long to be away from it all but tough to do that when you rely on payment from one location.

Honestly its tough. I apply to American jobs but they minute they find out I am Canadian they will pass on my application even jobs I overqualified for.

Can confirm 100k salary in Vancouver is nothing. Even 200k I wasn't saving money.

What makes me angry is learning 1/4 jobs in Canada is a government job. Taxes, housing, society (I don't even feel like I live in Canada sometimes).

I don't know what other options there are. It's quite bleak and living in Canada takes a toll on your mental health.

I envy you...
