> No, that's not sufficient if done naively as I think you're describing. You seem to be missing the context of this discussion as described by the article. Other code already depends on the current compiled abstraction, and you want to extend it in various ways, safely, so that existing code continues to work without recompilation, but you can extend the abstraction that code is already safely handling with new types and new operations without modifying the original source code.

That is exactly what a new trait would accomplish. I remain confused as to the distinction you are making.

The demo scene inspired me to keep my next‑gen terminal [0] tiny: it is under 5MB (Mac download was once 900 KB) and my aim is to get all downloads down to ~1MB. If demosceners can do it, regular indie devs really have no excuse.

This scene isn’t dead; we should just look beyond 3D glitter. See File Pilot [1] for another compact, clever example.

I feel sorry for us as human beings that something like this isn't treated as a war crime. It should never be ok to kill non-combatant civilians in cold-blood. This thought first came into mind when I read that Israel had killed a whole Iranian family ( https://www.tasnimnews.com/en/news/2025/06/26/3342913/entire... ) to assassinate an Iranian scientist. (Or atleast that is what is claimed - some regimes really are too comfortable with the idea of "collective punishment").

Well, to be fair, there's what I call "pure" Agile (as in the Manifesto), and then "real-world Agile" (what has the name, but doesn't really seem to follow the Manifesto).

I always liked the Manifesto, but it's really rather vague, and we engineers don't do "vague" so well, which leaves a lot of room for interpretation.

And authors.

And consultants.

And conference speakers.

Those are the ones that form what is eventually implemented. I'm not really sure any of the original signatories ever rolled up their sleeves, and worked to realize their vision.

It's my experience, that this is where the wheels start to come off the grand ideas.

That's one thing that I have to hand to Grady Booch. He came up with the idea, wrote it down, and then started to actually make tools to make it happen. Not sure if they really launched, but he did work to make his ideas into reality.

I linked that page because the iceberg metaphor is extremely useful. The rest of the page is feeler slop. It recognizes that cultural differences are substantive (e.g. concepts of fairness) and not only superficial (e.g. food). But it takes it as axiomatic that mixing those differences necessarily is a good thing.

Of course we don't have to take it on faith that mixing cultures is a good thing, we can look at actual results. For example, more than 200 years after they immigrated to the U.S. in large numbers, Dutch Americans are still more successful and orderly along many dimensions even compared to neighboring German Americans. For example, Dutch Americans, along with Mormons, were the two groups of Republicans to vote strongly against Trump in the 2016 primary: https://michaeljdouma.com/2019/05/19/dutch-americans-in-alie....

If you don't care about superficial elements of culture (food, movies), cultural influence from immigrants has made almost no positive impact on American culture. The most functional and orderly communities in the country in 1725 were New England Purtians, and the places populated by their descendants remain so in 2025.

What if the common intermediate encoding is text, not binary? Then grep/diff/sed all still work.

If we had a formatting tool that operated solely on AST, checked in code could be in a canonical form for a given AST. Editors could then parse the AST and display the source with a different formatting of the users choice, and convert to canonical form when writing the file to disk.

There are multiple problems here. First, there's the unsupported claim that the AGPL is somehow incompatible with being production-ready, which seems obviously false. But more seriously, there's the proposition that GitHub should crack down on this project, which I find to be absolutely bizarre.

The person who opened that issue also made some other claims, like that a more permissive license would allow the project to reach a broader audience. That's undoubtedly true, but I'm going to go out on a limb and say that the author of the project is probably well aware of that and chose an appropriate license based on their own goals.

Semantic web is a bit different from semantic HTML.

As I understand it, the main point of semantic web is making the web machine readable, often using languages specifically designed for that task that are not HTML.

Semantic HTML is more concerned with writing standardized HTML that leverages browser capabilities and respects users who use assistive technology to browse the web.

Frankly, I don't see what this framework has to do with either. I was curious about how they implemented the dropdown menus, and they're specially styled <details> elements, which are normally used for accordions. That seems a bit strange to me, because the obvious choice for a dropdown is the <select> element.

The only reason the 7800x3d is power efficient is because it simply can't use much power, and so it runs at a better spot of the efficiency curve. Most of the CPUs won't use more than ~88w without doing manual overclocking (not pbo). Compare that to e.g. a 7600x that's 2 cores fewer on the same architecture and will happily pull over 130w.

And even if could push it higher, they run very hot compared to other CPUs at the same power usage as a combination of AMD's very thick IHS, the compute chiplets being small/power dense and 7000 series X3D cache being on top of the compute chiplet unlike 9000 series that has it on the bottom.

The 9800x3d limited in the same way will be both mildly more power efficient from faster cores and run cooler because of the cache location. The only reason it's hotter is that it's allowed to use significantly more power, usually up to 150w stock, for which you'd have to remove the IHS on the 7800X3D if you didn't want to see magic smoke

Its been discussed. Iiuc, Currently unlike other countries in a similar economic relationship as it, south Korea does not have access to a quota for short term business consultative employees, and Korean firms have been in the habit of misclassifying short term immigrant employees to get them in the door, doing the subcontracting trick to shield the supercontractor (in this case LG/Hyundai) from liability... In case it goes south, as it did this time.

> I think narcotics destroy the fabric of society. But the only realistic way to combat it is Singapore-style death penalties for possession exceeding certain amounts. HN's libertarian crowd may dislike this, but it's how Singapore has become one of the world's wealthiest countries by gdppc without a pronounced drug problem.

(not OP) I'm no libertarian, but there's another way... monitored legalization! Admittedly, the locations of legalization success stories haven't generally had to contend with fentanyl. But I'm also not convinced by the argument that we should hang anyone with drugs on them. The fact that Singapore continues to execute prisoners shows that the fabric of Singaporean society is still being destroyed by drugs, or alternatively that the fabric of society is damaged enough by other causes that people are being driven to deal in drugs.

As someone living in a country where executions are illegal, I do not wish to see the impact of substance abuse exploited to justify the reintroduction of a practice that many of my fellow citizens consider barbaric.

Your analysis makes sense. It's 100% justified and a win for the ICE- they certainly "did something". Given the size of the operation all those resources makes sense.

There was a political aspect to this story. It's odd that trump hasn't yet gone scorched earth on SK but he wanted to put them and everyone else on notice. He wants to negotiate from a position of strength.

> The United Kingdom

Again, an English proper noun which is comprised of four countries[0]. Just because a proper noun does not end with an 's' or 'es' does not mean it is singular. Some proper nouns end with an 's' or 'es' and are not plural. This is why one would not say "the Wales" even though it ends with 'es' as Wales is a proper noun identifying a single entity (country in this case).

Another example of this type of linguistic contradiction is "aircraft", whose plural is also "aircraft"[1]. So the following examples are grammatically correct:

An aircraft costs money to operate. The aircraft did not pass inspection. Multiple aircraft are more than one aircraft.

EDIT:

English is a context-dependent language, fraught with contradictions and special cases, let alone vagaries introduced with various dialects.

Remember that when you wrote:

... I can't tell when to use "a" and "the" even if my life depended on it.

I sought to provide assistance in resolving this dilemma and nothing more. My hope is this thread has helped.

And before "the Netherlands" is brought up in comparison to "Wales", the etymology of the proper noun "Netherlands" should provide clarification:

The Netherlands formerly included Flanders and thus were equivalent geographically and etymologically to the Low Countries.[2]

No excuse! The neighbor clearly should have paid to train a local worker in fence-fixing for a year or two, and then paid the local worker's wages while fixing the fence, and then let the worker go as they don't need to fix a fence again for some time. Granted that would take two years and tens of thousands of dollars more than the neighbor fixing it themselves, but that's the neighbor's problem. (well, and now the problem of the homeowner with the fence that has to wait 2 more years to get their fence fixed)

> 5:10 "475 were illegally present in the United States"

Not quite; The figure includes those with visa.

"Illegally present in the United States or in violation of their presence in the united states, working unlawfully"

This also leaves open the question of what "violation of the visa" entails here. They may well have been working within their visas, only for ICE to arbitrarily rule otherwise.
by dv_dt | 2025-09-08 00:34:55+00:00
If there were actually any systemic visa problems then a few discreet phone calls and discussions between governments and executives could have cleared this up without putting anyone in cuffs. If it had desired, the US government could have bulk granted visas to any warmup worker trying to get this US plant online. Doing a raid publicly and loudly puts a lot of current and future investment at risk for very little gain.

In the mid-2000s I was doing some consulting in middle America and noticed a bunch of Indian IT workers staying at the same hotel I was staying at. Since, I was Indian-origin, we engaged in some small-chat. They were working for a now defunct telecom giant (but contracted by one of the big Indian consultancies) on various software projects. There were there on not, H1Bs, but another class of short-term business-meeting only visas. They told me every 3 months a whole new team would cycle onto the project with a fresh set of business visas and the rest would cycle back home, rinse-repeat. They weren't allowed to "work" per say, and some of their colleagues got rejected at the border by more savvy border agents. But for every 1 rejection, 20 of them would get through.

The article insinuates an unannounced visit:

After Reuters documented the disappearance of the young girl who worked at SMART, a team of state and federal authorities conducted the Aug. 9 inspection at SL, in Alexander City. They discovered seven minors there, including the two Guatemalan brothers, among employees making lights and mirrors for Hyundai and Kia. Alabama’s Department of Labor fined SL and JK USA Inc, a staffing agency, $17,800 each.

> I'm glad I use a Hetzner VPS. I pay about EUR 5 monthly, and never have to worry about unexpected bills.

The trade-off being that your site falls over with some amount of traffic. That's not a criticism, that may be what you want to happen – I'd rather my personal site on a £5 VPS fell over than charged me £££.

But that's not what many businesses will want, it would be very bad to lose traffic right at your peak. This was a driver for a migration to cloud hosting at my last company, we had a few instances of doing a marketing push and then having the site slow down because we couldn't scale up new machines quickly enough (1-12 month commitment depending on spec, 2 working day lead time). We could quantify the lost revenue and it was worth paying twice the price for cloud to have that quick scaling.

> I genuinely doubt that the level of theft ever rose to a large enough margin, if it did, Apple would have pulled out of China.

There was a point where the black market in China was making more on Apple products than Apple itself. They initially tried to have stricter warranty conditions in China as a fix, but state media decided this was an affront to the country: https://www.infoworld.com/article/2271627/apple-clarifies-wa...

Hence, the technical fix.

Why pull out when you can apply a technical fix and retain both access to the biggest consumer electronics market in the world and maintain the good graces of the country that manufactures almost all your products?

This is a good takeaway. I use Claude Code as my main approach for making changes to a codebase, and I’ve been doing so every day for months. I have a solid system I follow through trial and error, and overall it’s been a massive boon to my productivity and willingness to attempt larger experiments.

One thing I love doing is developing a strong underlying data structure, schema, and internal API, then essentially having CC often one-shot a great UI for internal tools.

Being able to think at a higher level beyond grunt work and framework nuances is a game-changer for my career of 16 years.

That's not the point and it's also irrelevant. People don't buy a car because they have a love of gas or electricity; they buy what works and is affordable. Chinese EVs are getting more range, have more software and safety features and are becoming cheaper and cheaper to buy. They are competition even to gas cars now. What form of energy the engine consumes is irrelevant here.

Before that was HyperCard. It was always amazing to me the types of applications that could be written with HyperCard.

In a similar way, VBA was amazing in MS Office back in the day. If you ever saw someone who was good at Visual Basic in Excel, it’s impressive the amount of work that could get done in Excel by a motivated user who would have been hesitant to call themselves a programmer.

> spell out for me how that makes it ok to use undocumented labor

The same way it is ok to go 1-5 mph over the speed limit on the freeway. Both are illegal on paper, but in practice, law enforcement turns a blind eye and actual enforcement would entangle a lot of people and interfere with the status quo. The juice is probably not worth the squeeze, as Arizona and Florida found out.

You watch a lot of garbage.

The first video said nothing about climate change. (By the way DDT was banned.) The second started with Greta. I stopped immediately. None of it was science.

Chris Wallace interview did nothing. No gotcha moments there.

No wonder you have issues.

Keep it simple. Tell me what we have wrong about climate change and I’ll clear it up.

Some niche gadget-y things that are alive and well in the "a few hundred bucks or less" range:

* hardware tools / multi-tools

* bluetooth speakers

* portable projectors - outdoor big-screen movie night on the cheap

* the "sports/action" camera market - waterproof, magnetic/mountable, go-pro/insta360 etc

* pro/am mirrorless cameras are mostly too expensive to qualify but there's some really cool accesories now (handheld stabilizing gimbals, say)

* everything in the thread/zigbee/etc home automation space (sensors and buttons and automations...)

* car gadgets for enthusiast cars (things that plug into obd ports for diagnostics or real-time display of measurements), or "add android auto to your old car's built-in screen" multi-media retrofits (though in gaining things like this we've lost the ease of just things being single- or double-DIN in the first place), or dashcams

* vr headsets (feels very much like the sort of thing Radioshack of old would've been all over like the tiny handheld TVs)

* fitbits and such wearables

* portable monitors

* mechanical keyboards (as well as macro pads and such)

a lot of them qualify as "phone accesories" but I'm not sure that takes away from them

First off, there's a chart for CPU temperature at the very top and they do talk about it:

> I also double-checked if the CPU temperature of about 100 degrees celsius is too high, but no: [..] Intel specifies a maximum of 110 degrees. So, running at “only” 100 degrees for a few hours should be fine.

Secondly, the article reads:

> Tom’s Hardware recently reported that “Intel Raptor Lake crashes are increasing with rising temperatures in record European heat wave”, which prompted some folks to blame Europe’s general lack of Air Conditioning.

> But in this case, I actually did air-condition the room about half-way through the job (at about 16:00), when I noticed the room was getting hot. Here’s the temperature graph:

> [GRAPH]

> I would say that 25 to 28 degrees celsius are normal temperatures for computers.

So apparently a Tom's Hardware article connected a recent heat wave with crashing computers containing Intel CPUs. They brought that up to rule it out by presenting a graph showing reasonable room temperatures.

I hope this helps.

Others have already mentioned how why this is a bad idea (e.g. common plaintext tools don't work, added complexity, etc.)

But I'll also mention that this pretty much already exists. You can have whitespace options for git. I also imagine there's some setup using hooks that uses one formatter locally, and another for remote.

Also, the common IR already exists - it's just the AST. It was "solved" back in the day when people were throwing whatever they could to the wall to see what sticks since it was all so new. With the benfit of hindsight, I think we can say that it's not that good of an idea.

Presumably MacBooks still have a big un-shuttered camera on the screen? Presumably there is still a light sensor?

I get the idea of parts pairing as a theft/parts-out deterrent -- I don't get it as a method of cutting features on existing machines. "We need the lid angle sensor to be valuable, so let's cut out our eyes and seal our ears."

What a condescending and arrogant answer.

I think you should also think more about this.

One can believe that Apple (or any company) should let you do whatever you want with your hardware - in general - and point out any instance when they don't; even if that specific instance is not something that touches you!

This is true of everything. Another example: if you believe in freedom of speech, you should vocally defend anyone who is deprived of it, even when that is not you. Otherwise, you lose by divide and conquer.

Apes together strong.

"Smaller and cheaper" isn't the best comparison point, "same size but cleaner" would be a more interesting one. And AFAICT larger electric cars cost considerably more than most of the gas options in the US.

An internal combustion F-150 costs less than an electric one, I believe the same is true for the Maverick though to a lesser degree. The hybrid Maverick does gangbusters with similar prices; if the electric F-150 cost the same as the gas one and there was a hybrid one at the same price I'd wager that you'd see a lot more uptake than you do of the current Lightning.

Iron may not be rare but the value of iron ores is subtly dependent on eg, non-iron content

"A few smelting companies formed in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, but were unable to process the ore with any economic success due to the sandy nature and high titanium content, which tended to form hard, brittle carbides in the steel." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ironsand#:~:text=%5D%20A%20few...

Even today's "economic" process wastes all that titanium (which should be even more valuable for a lunar economy - Ti burning is a major thorn on earth!)
