Ask HN: Future Proofing Career (Quantum computing?)
I’m a senior software developer at a small shop. I’m self taught, have played around with most languages and technologies because they’re just fun. Currently I’m the data/full stack guy (generalist) because of my experience with data warehouse. So I do sprocs/queries, c# backend, react front end, anything that needs to be done.My degree is in accounting and I’ve been an accountant, a data analyst, data warehouse manager, currently software developer.It’s important to note that I’ve alw

Show HN: FeedRewind – Read your favorite blog start to finish, at your own pace
Hello HN! Many times I found myself reading someone's blog and realizing I want to learn as much as I can from this person, or that they're covering their niche in a way no one else does. And so I'd want to read their backlog but the only ways to do it are to binge it all at once or to keep a tab open for weeks.This seemed like an oversight in the RSS functionality but fortunately turned out to be possible to build outside-in. A custom crawler, a lot of XPath heuristics and tuning
Ask HN: I can't work in tech anymore. Help?
TL;DR; - in tech for almost two decades. Past jobs I just keep losing motivation after 6-9 months. Mentally exhausted by the end of the day, so barely have time to work on my own stuff. No idea how to move further.Longer version: I'm in tech for almost two decades now. My first job ended after long tenure by the end of which I was barely doing anything, so I quit. Next job I was fired along with most of the company due to layoffs. Third company again long tenure, loss of motivation somewher
Show HN: VideoPuzzle - a satisfying puzzle game where you unscramble videos
Hello HN!I made a new daily game called VideoPuzzle. Play it at https://videopuzzle.org. The goal is to unscramble a video divided into 4x4 tiles. Each day features a new puzzle to solve.The technical stack includes:- WebGL for video tile rendering- Cloudflare R2 for video hosting- Pocketbase for player rankingThe game features both a daily mode with global ranking and a practice mode.The project builds on my experiences from my other games (https://squareword.org and https:&
Experiment suggests quantum computers can coordinate actions of moving devices
<div>New research from the University of Kent has demonstrated that quantum information could eventually be used to coordinate the actions of devices that can move, such as drones or autonomous vehicles. This could lead to more efficient logistics, which could make deliveries cheaper, and better use of limited bandwidth for the likes of self-driving cars.</div>
Physicists explain how fractional charge in pentalayer graphene could work
<div>MIT physicists have taken a key step toward solving the puzzle of what leads electrons to split into fractions of themselves. Their solution sheds light on the conditions that give rise to exotic electronic states in graphene and other two-dimensional systems.</div>
Poetry by History’s Greatest Poets or AI? People Can’t Tell the Difference—and Even Prefer the Latter. What Gives?
Here are some lines Sylvia Plath never wrote:
The air is thick with tension,
My mind is a tangled mess,
The weight of my emotions
Is heavy on my chest.
This apparently Plath-like verse was produced by GPT-3.5 in response to the prompt “write a short poem in the style of Sylvia Plath.”
The stanza hits the key points readers may expect of Plath’s poetry, and perhaps a poem more generally. It suggests a sense of despair as the writer struggles with internal demons. “Mess” and “chest” are a near-
