perryh2··on Lion Cove: Intel's P-Core Roars
It looks awesome. I am definitely going to purchase a 14" Lunar Lake laptop from either Asus (Zenbook S14) or Lenovo (Yoga Slim). I really like my 14" MBP form factor and these look like they would be great for running Linux.
perryh2··on We are self-hosting our GPUs
> We however found that our co-working space - WeWork has an excellent server hosting solution. We could put the servers on the same floor as our office and they would provide redundant power supply, cooling and internet connection. This entire package is available at a much cheaper rate and we immediately jumped on this. Right now all servers are securely running in our office.

Nice! How much does this cost?

perryh2··on HexWalk – Hex Editor/Viewer/Analyzer
During my first job out of college, I was assigned to maintain an ancient Windows codebase. A few different groups of people had been assigned to maintain this specific website and the people responsible before me had hardcoded secrets in the compiled executables but had excluded them from the source code. My experience using hex editors from tinkering with old video games (Diablo 2) gave me the skills to extract the secrets for work.

perryh2··on Ask HN: Who is hiring? (August 2022)
Stealth banking infrastructure startup | Software Engineer | Sunnyvale, CA (hybrid) | Full-time | https://jobs.lever.co/LunaFinancial/645e3342-a91a-44db-a3f9-...

We're a stealth fintech infrastructure startup that was founded by former Square executives, engineers and product managers from Stripe, Chime, Blend, and Yahoo. Our mission is to build differentiated banking products and services to support the embedded financial services, fintech ecosystems, and crypto economy. We are well capitalized having recently raised a large seed round of funding from Oren Zeev, Coatue, and Ribbit.

Our clients are looking for a robust and secure platform with modern, clean, and comprehensive API’s to build and manage their products. We’re looking for software engineers to help us build just that: a developer-centric, highly secure, scalable, multi-tenant banking platform that is highly compliant with regulatory requirements.

We're hiring backend engineers to help us build core banking infrastructure: APIs and Services that support a wide range of financial products. We believe that providing modern and clean APIs alone isn’t good enough. You’ll also help build resources that educate our customers on how to build their products using our APIs and simulate, test, and validate all of their use cases before graduating to deployment.

This is a great opportunity for an engineer who’s looking to build large scale systems from scratch in a “roll up your sleeves environment”.
