Agreed. I vaguely remember another HN link that said Apple tried a competing-team approach to building a better siri, but it fell apart due to internal politics reasons?

Why is it the fastest possible? Wouldn’t you be able to run a higher clock-speed simulation, and therefore compute the sound ahead-of-time, on a digital device?

For anyone who's wondering, their estimation method works like so: 1. Assume a range of values 2. Assume a fair probability function for sampling over the range of values The estimated size is the %-of-hits * the total range of values.

In your example, the amino acids order is sufficient to directly model the result: the sequence of amino acids can directly generate the protein, which is either valid or invalid. All variables are provided within the data. In the original

So sign your UUIDs and combine them into “$UUID:$HASH” strings for the same benefit. Or a more structured JWT-like payload that still verifies auth against the DB (as opposed to carrying authorization within the token). No need to reinvisio

This number includes taxes, benefits, etc, not just raw salary. Notably Signal employees do not get equity, so the salary must be higher to remain competitive. Signal is probably the hardest class of product to build. Name an optimization&#

Strengthening the rail network and increasing the cost of oil? Sounds like the right incentives to me.

Is this really a problem? Async/await makes async simple, and using a store like zustand gives you hooks and [g/s]etters out of the box.
