Ask HN: Random upper back pain is ruining my life. At wits end. Anyone else?
3 by anm89 | 2 comments on Hacker News.
I'm writing in total desperation. I feel like I can't make it through another day of meaningless, constant back pain. I've had it on and off for 7 years now, since I was 24 (now 31) It's this weird vibrating, tingling, burning, muscle sore combination that moves between the left side of my neck, under my shoulder blade, my left trap, and sort of out to the back of my ribs right below my shoulder blade. The pain moves around and sometimes I'll get a similar feeling on the other side of my body which makes it all the more confusing. I've been to doctor after doctor after doctor and I have absolute no more info then when I started. I'm on the verge of quitting my job because I feel like I can't go through another day tomorrow. The only thing I've ever correlated with more or less pain is how hydrated I am (ie less pain if more hydrated) and even that is pretty loose. Has anybody ever gone through anything like this? Has any body ever gotten over it or am I doomed to this for life?

Hey folks, I've been building a rendering engine for a code editor the past couple of days. Rendering huge chunks of highlighted syntax can get laggy. It's not worth switching to React at this stage, so I wanted to just write a quick diff algorithm that would selectively update only changed lines. I found this article: https://ift.tt/2lIuVkG With a link to this paper, the initial Git diff implementation: https://ift.tt/1GF9uI8 I couldn't find the PDF to start with, but read "edit graph" and immediately thought — why don't I just use a hashtable to store lines from LEFT_TEXT and references to where they are, then iterate over RIGHT_TEXT and return matches one by one, also making sure that I keep track of the last match to prevent jumbling? The algorithm I produced is only a few lines and seems accurate. It's O(N) time complexity, whereas the paper above gives a best case of O(ND) where D is minimum edit distance. function lineDiff (left, right) { left = left.split('\n'); right = right.split('\n'); let lookup = {}; // Store line numbers from LEFT in a lookup table left.forEach(function (line, i) { lookup[line] = lookup[line] || []; lookup[line].push(i); }); // Last line we matched var minLine = -1; return right.map(function (line) { lookup[line] = lookup[line] || []; var lineNumber = -1; if (lookup[line].length) { lineNumber = lookup[line].shift(); // Make sure we're looking ahead if (lineNumber > minLine) { minLine = lineNumber; } else { lineNumber = -1 } } return { value: line, from: lineNumber }; }); } RunKit link: https://ift.tt/2MTFXmv What am I missing? I can't find other references to doing diffing like this. Everything just links back to that one paper.

Ask HN: How was life for a regular dev during the dot com burst?

I'm a youngish developer (28y/o), and the constant recent comments of people predicting a new burst have made me curious about how life changed for developers at the time, and maybe what to expect if such a thing were to happen again. I've heard stories of rich startup founders losing everything back then, but not much about what happened with the average devs. What was it like, living through those times? Did many people change careers? was there still a thriving industry in less risky tech companies? did salaries drop? I'm basically clueless about the whole thing.
