>C-RAM has been around protecting bases in the Middle East for years, and those 30mm rounds have to land somewhere...

Actually no, the CRAM based Phalanx systems use self-detonating ammo. They explode after their tracer runs out. The Naval versions use kinetic penetration rounds with tungsten cores and do not self detonate.

Also they are 20mm

> I haven’t met many men who complain about dating apps and that get dates. It seems exclusive to men who cannot get matches or dates.

I’m not sure what age group you’re thinking of, but in my age range (40s and 50s), I hear tons of complaints from both sides.

Personally speaking as someone who gets plenty of dates, my complaints are:

- Match doesn’t look like their profile, often by a lot

- Actions don’t support how match presents themselves in their profile

- For potentially “good” matches, I often have to work through a lot of jaded scar tissue that they’ve built up from online dating. People have doubted my name, age, residence, approximate income, goals in dating, etc. Usually these are based on bad experiences they have had in the past.

- A decent number of matches are straight up dysfunctional and/or psychologically unhealthy — think unhealthy boundaries, anger issues, etc. This is often easy to spot in the initial meeting. It’s no wonder they aren’t in a long term relationship.

- Some women, especially single moms, actually want FWB relationships based on their actions, but they haven’t yet admitted that to themselves. It creates awkward tensions that would be resolved if they just accepted that they more-or-less want sporadic on-demand attention and intimacy without much of the emotional and time investment that goes into a full relationship. Fwiw, I have no problem with FWBs, as long as both parties are open and honest about their intentions.

- From both my male and female friends who use dating apps, the apps for folks in their 40s and 50s are largely a market for lemons — the good ones either don’t last on the app very long or don’t stay very long due to bad experiences, and the “regulars” are simply unlikely to get into a long-term relationship.

You have it backwards: I can't remember to care about CVE 2025 31200 vs CVE 2025 32100. People should refer to CoreAudio Corruption Antelope and the infrastructure should allow em to easily search for that and get it unambiguosly linked to CVE 2025 31200 (or was it 32100? Better double-check.)

You can remember CoreAudio Corruption Antelope a lot longer than you can care about 2025 301200.

As for whether it's CoreAudio or IOS or Apple or whatever: as long as it is not woefully inaccurate, it's fine. The format is necessary to prevent people from marketing "Extreme Apocalypso" as the name for an input issue in syslog that can only be used to fill a disk slowly.

I would say for starting a first robotics lego league is going to be easier to access because they build a smaller robot out of legos, plus the "season" starts in the Fall vs. January for First robotics league.

I've coached a First team that has qualified to go to worlds the last four years and been on the Einstein field once in that time. I think you'd learn a few things - robots are built to solve problems and the most technically complex and advanced robots don't always solve problem better than simple elegant designs. - Robots involve multiple skills and usually get built by teams where members are specialists in specific fields. Some people will understand all of the robot sub systems but

I was actually curious about this and chatgpt actually accurately and very slowly gave me the first 100 digits of pi one digit at a time. I have _no idea_ how that worked, it did not search, nor did it run code. As far as I can tell, it pulled it straight out of it's own model.

If I ask it to use python, it writes and executes the code _much_ more quickly, same if I ask it to search.

I would argue that nothing is more destructive for academic and intellectual activities than what you propose.

It immediately replaces the ideal result, which is a true assessment, with a feelings-based assessment, and it undermines academic honesty for all students.

What must be done is to teach the students that failing an exam is OK, and help them recover the learning mindset. Evaluations are intended to measure the things learned and the things that need to improve. Evaluations are not a punishment.

This is dangerous and untrue advice. Drones are considered aircraft in the US, and there is no altitude limit or license requirement for something to be considered an aircraft. See 49 U.S. Code § 40102 [0] and explicit FAA regulation of airspace under 400 feet [1]

Imagine if electrical devices were locked down in this manner. You'd only be able to use appliances that the outlet manufacturers approved. If they went out of business, you'd have to have your house wiring stripped and replaced. The local utility would also get a vote.

It's obvious to me that this model is unacceptable.

A better choice is to ensure that internet stacks are secure in hardware, not software. This is how power is distributed. Internet connectivity could be secured the same way.

Then you could use anything you want without worrying about confused software or hackers, in the same way you can plug in anything to any outlet without worrying about burning the house down.

Well,not my country, but I think it is quite a silly and too general rule:

What if 10 neighbors collude and start flying drones over my garden and house, only a few meters above ground or my roof, 24/7? What if one of their drones crashes without my doing and hurts _me_? So the actual rules need to be more nuanced than this, to prevent people doing crazy shit with their tech gadgets hurting others. They cannot be given free reign in that matter.

As a customer I wonder about it. For a service like Plex Pass buying a perpetual subscription seems reasonable and affordable but if I am paying $X a month I can "exit" and the vendor might care

but if I've bought a perpetual subscription they've got no reason to listen to me anymore.

For #1, code review hasn't really existed long enough to be a "tradition" — everyone does this differently.

For example, my internship was "here's a book on python, get some stuff done"; and my first few jobs out of university included one where I had exactly one mentor review my code for a few months before they left, a second where I was the only person who knew how the platform worked, and a third where my theoretical peer was someone who refused to listen or share knowledge. And all that was about 15 years ago.

For #2, society has weird risk responses. It's not that we "expect" self-driving cars to be 10x better, it's that we need them to be 10x better just to feel as if the risk is the same when we're not in the driving seat.

Code generation doesn't need this.

Bluntly, most managers don't have much reason to care about code quality already — I suspect many categorise us devs talking about "technical debt" (and similar) in the same way they categorise free yoga classes and table tennis sets in the office: a cost of hiring devs, but not a real business requirement.

For #3, when they're better in general, all bets are off. It's like chess engines: we go from being in control, to helping spot mistakes, to just getting in the way because we "hallucinated" something that wasn't really a consequence of the code or of the ticket or etc.

For #4, we will always find fault, but it will become asymptomatically rare for the faults we find to be both real and not merely aesthetic.

I’d be interested to see how that changes if you launch a net

Any drone I would be able to pick off with a firearm would have to be low and slow enough for me to capture it with less violent means.

Then I’m not shooting anything. I’m seizing property that shouldnt be here like I would a kids frisbee or a an abandoned vehicle. They’re free to ask nicely for it to be returned
Ask HN: Negotiating sale of property to a datacenter company
by rhmw2b | 2025-06-02 20:17:31+00:00
Hi HN,

A close friend is looking at selling their family farm in Colorado and he received a letter of intent from a company that builds datacenters. He suspects that water rights as well as the location play a significant role in their interest in the property, and he thinks that their offer is low all things considered. Who would he consult with to find out what the property is worth and how to best negotiate the purchase?

Thanks!

> the fallacy of this argument is that it says that some bugs would be ignored because of namung confusion. But that's already the status quo for all bugs!

I don't think so. The difference is when you arbitrarily constrain data your introduce errors and edge cases. Either the name is standardized in which case what can go in portions of it needs to be constrained, or it's not. If it's constrained, someone will need to make a decision on what's appropriate and inappropriate to add. If the list of items that can and should be put in that field is large, you're likely so see some or (most) omitted.

The real question is whether that omission will be viewed as people to imply something is unaffected before they look more closely, and then ignore what might be something important. An argument could also be made that people might see a CVE name without a product and decide that it doesn't affect them, or ignore it when they might have looked closer because something in the name caught their attention, but I think that's a slightly different problem. I think my stance can mostly be boiled down to not wanting to unintentionally train people to rely on something that is unreliable.

I'll freely admit there are cases for both sides of this and differing opinions. It's similar to Postel's law in that it deals to a degree with human nature and people's propensity to take shortcuts (in both actions and thinking), so what we're actually talking about is how we perceive human nature and how it interacts with systems we create.

The thing is, I have spent the last year being told that I will VERY SOON be able to use a fork to drink soup, and better than any spoon has ever been able to, and in fact pretty soon spoons will be completely outclassed anyway, and I'M the idiot for doubting this.

Articles like this are still very much needed, to push back against that narrative, regularly, until it DOES become as obvious to everyone as it is to you.

>For the first couple years you make stuff, it’s just not that good.

Sadly, that's why I don't start a lot of things that would interest me. You need to get into things when you're a kid and don't realize how junk your work is, because as an adult you just don't have time to dedicate to producing a lot of junk to get good at something. The are shortcuts and more directed learning you can do in a lot of areas to reduce some of the undirected learning you do as a child, but it's till time consuming when time is a rare commodity.

>Every type of automation ever invented has led to massive job cuts

It, never has, in fact the opposite is true. Every type of automation has expanded the economic output so much that it created massive amounts of labor demand, which is why cities early absorbed masses of underemployed workers during the industrial revolution. One famous example, there are now more bank tellers than before the invention of the ATM.

In fact you can go to any poor country with no automation and you'll find entire classes of un- and underemployed people. This is a condition of premodern, not technological societies.

The entire AI debate rests on the speculative claim that it is not merely an automation tool, but a sort of sci-fi wholesale replacement of human beings, contrary to what happened during earlier waves of automation.

> Can it be brutalist when you have the richness of wood in full display, veins, shimmer and knots all apparent?

Insofar as brutalism is about showcasing the raw building materials, yes, I think this is precisely what brutalism is about. Brutalism often uses concrete, but the big idea is to showcase the underlying material. (And if wood is more beautiful than concrete, great!)

A LLM can't self-reflect. It doesn't know what happens in its own circuits. If you ask it, it will either tell you what it knows (from the articles about LLMs it has ingested), and if it doesn't, it will hallucinate something, as it is often the case.

Since the LLM has no knowledge on how LLMs do addition, it will pick something that seems to makes sense, and it picked the "carry the one" algorithm. New generations of LLMs will probably do better now that they have access to a better answer for that specific question, but it doesn't mean that they have become more insightful.

>But, as some of the people I interviewed reminded me, no matter where they lived they would not be fully accepted.

>“As a trans person, I’m always going to have to deal with people discriminating against me,” one woman said.

>Living in a rural locale with an active local music scene let her focus on aspects of her identity that were more important to her than her gender identity.

This is my experience as well. I don't experience more stares or scowls in rural areas than I do in urban centers. Even in San Francisco, being visibly transgender is often uncomfortable.
