New top story on Hacker News: Ask HN: Books on designing disk-optimized data structures?
13 by memset | 13 comments on Hacker News.
Are there canonical books, resources, or readings for how to design data structures that will be primarily read and written to a disk rather than memory? Most of what I learned in school about big-O assumes that, for example, random access is O(1). However, random disk reads are really slow due to spacial locality. People who write databases obviously have solutions to this problem - for example, DuckDB is based on a number of papers that have come out over the years on this topic. If I wanted to design, ie, a tree structure which was intended to be read/written from a disk, are there general principles or patterns the have been developed to take advantage of locality of reference, minimize random reads, or decrease the overhead of writes, that I could familiarize myself with? What is the CLRS for disk?

Ask HN: Is recycling lithium virtue signaling or greener/cheaper than mining?
The price of lithium carbonate is skyrocketing in response to demand for EVs (especially following the Inflation Reduction Act's EV tax incentives): https://ift.tt/HozMLTq. Solid state batteries may reduce but not eliminate demand.
Ridwell is the only startup I can think of offering battery recycling as a service and it's just a fraction of their overall model.
Is lithium recycling from consumer electronics viable? "Green" in both senses of the word.

New top story on Hacker News: Show HN: TaskTXT, plain text task-timing notepad
9 by trafnar | 5 comments on Hacker News.
I built TaskTXT.com based on my experience timing my tasks. I found that committing to a task before I start helps with my focus, and guessing how long it will take, then timing it prevents me from wanting to give in to distractions because I'm "on the clock". Video Overview: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HOYO0c_D6w0 There's also a Mac app which you can download here: https://ift.tt/bMl36jd Video overview of the Mac app: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qMs-V5v5gZY But I didn't want the tool to be distracting, so its based on plain text. That means the UI is very familiar and you can use it for generic notes in any structure you like. When you work in TaskTXT you are working directly on its data format, I made a video about this concept here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kZdBgVZn5NI I think this tool is uniquely suited for programmers, so I'd be interested to hear any feedback about the product, or its viability as a business.

New top story on Hacker News: I accidentally started a movement – Policing the Police by scraping court data
73 by kristintynski | 11 comments on Hacker News.
Almost 3 years ago, I posted a story of how a post I wrote about utilizing county level police data to "police the police" to r/privacy and hackernews. https://ift.tt/3PjKn0l The idea quickly evolved into a real goal, to make good on the promise of free and open policing data. By freeing policing data from antiquated and difficult-to-access county data systems, and compiling that data in a rigorous way, we could create a valuable new tool to level the playing field and help provide community oversight of police behavior and activity. In the almost 3 years since the first post, something amazing has happened. The idea turned into something real. Something called The Police Data Accessibility Project. (https://www.pdap.io) More than 2,000 people joined the initial community, and while those numbers dwindled after the initial excitement, a core group of highly committed and passionate folks remained. In these 3 years, this team has worked incredibly hard to lay the groundwork necessary to enable us to realistically accomplish the monumental data collection task ahead of us. Let me tell you a bit about what the team has accomplished in these 3 years. Established the community and identified volunteer leaders who were willing and able to assume consistent responsibility. -Gained a pro-bono law firm to assist us in navigating the legal waters. Arnold + Porter is our pro-bono law firm. -Arnold + Porter helped us to establish as a legal entity and apply for 501c3 status -501c3 status granted -We've carefully defined our goals and set a clear roadmap for the future -Hired first full-time staff. -PDAP was awarded a $250,000 grant by The Heinz Endowments So now, I'm asking for help, because scraping, cleaning, and validating 18,000 police departments is no easy task. The first is to join us and help the team. Perhaps you joined initially, realized we weren't organized yet, and left? Now is the time to come back. Or, maybe you are just hearing of it now. Either way, the more people we have working on this, the faster we can get this done. Those with scraping experience are especially needed. The second is to either donate, or help us spread the message. The more donations, the more data we can gather. I want to thank the r/privacy community especially. It was here that things really began. TL;DR: I accidentally started a movement from a blog post I wrote about policing the police with data. The movement turned into something real because of r/privacy and hackernews: (Police Data Accessibility Project). 3 years later, the groundwork has been laid, non-profit established, full-time staff hired, and $250,000 in grant money and donations so far!

Even now, with around 3 years of experience, I already feel a deep interest in system design and architecture, but it's still very frustrating.

New top story on Hacker News: Show HN: Cachegrand – a fast OSS Key-Value store built for modern hardware
18 by daniele_dll | 20 comments on Hacker News.
I am the author of the platform, happy to reply to any question you might have! It scales up really nicely thanks to a year of research and development of the hashtable implemented in cachegrand, on the hardware used for benchmarking, an AMD EPYC 7502P, it was able to reach up to 5mln GET QPS and 4.5mln SET QPS, with batching up to 60mln GET QPS and up to 26MLN SET QPS. cachegrand is fast, it's fully Open Source, it's under a BSD 3-clause license - it can be used easily as standalone platform or incorporated in other ones without any licensing issue - and we are working to expand the Redis functionalities supported and to impelement a tiered storage to cache more data than the available memory. Longer term our goal is to expand the support to different platforms (e.g. memcache, kafka, etc.), add support to webassembly to have user defined functions and server side events, and of course a network bypass (combining XDP and a lockless FreeBSD tcp/ip stack) and a storage bypass. Although it can easily used via docker, here a direct link to the latest release https://ift.tt/3dWVrym.... Currently we are focused on supporting Redis, here the list of commands currently implemented https://ift.tt/NHv0JGL...

Show HN: BaoRnD – Gitlab x LinkedIn for projects involving little or no code
Hello everyone
I am Aliyu, and I am introducing baoRnD.
baoRnD is a repository + networking solution. Think of it as GitLab + LinkedIn but for projects involving little or no code.
Problem
As researchers, we have lived with frustrations when it comes to organizing project files, communicating with stakeholders, and/or publicizing our work. As an example, sharing my work or updates involves sharing online documents/folder, sending local files from my computer, or explaining verbally or over email. Communicating with stakeholders (e.g. my supervisors), is also a headache because each stakeholder uses different communication channels, all of which are not built for RnD usage.
PhDs and university graduates are often forced to work on projects they're not interested in for lack of better options.
Research papers are tough to understand! I mean, how many of us have ever understood any research paper the first time we read it?
Traditional industries are underserved by the available technological tools. Having spoken with many people in these industries, the current options they have are cumbersome emails or lengthy phone calls.
Solution
baoRnD has been built to solve this pain-point. It largely started as a way for me to solve the issues I was facing in my RnD life. But people showed interest.
Basically, it allows you to have all project files/information and to conduct all project processes on one platform. We allow our users to host and manage RnD (Research and Development) projects, update and communicate with stakeholders, publicize their work, get support, and perform computations; At the same time, the general public can follow projects. You also get a lot of support from both the baoRnD employees (currently I and my co-founder. and the large community already using baoRnD.
The networking aspect makes it easy for project owners to publicize their work. Here at baoRnD, we believe Understanding the process and having clear documentation of that, rather than just the final result (communicated with a paper) is the better way to share new knowledge or innovative work. The public can easily follow your work if you make your project public. Many of our users have gained important insights from discussions they've had with their project followers after they pushed new updates.
PhDs who are tired of always getting the worse end of the stick can join baoRnD to get project sponsors, get funded, or find and work on projects that interest them.
Aside from hosting and managing communication for your projects, some of the support that can be gotten from banRnD currently include:
1. Find researchers to join your RnD project.
2. Find collaborators on projects.
3. Find sponsors for your project.
4. Find resources, such as equipment, lab space, etc. Our Resource Center has lots of them waiting for grabs.
5. Request help from baoRnD in-house staff (for premium accounts only).
For startups
You may be thinking, this is not for startups. Actually, startups and SMEs who can’t afford to set up dedicated RnD departments (cos of reasons like high cost) find it a better option to put their project on baoRnD to find researchers willing to take them up. This does not only help you to find smart people interested in your work but also to test their abilities on real innovative projects and garner more awareness for your project. Big companies use baoRnD for the same reasons.
Our Ask
