I guess some of us are hoping for a little more competence and actually doing some research, like, for instance, trying out these products in field tests to see how soldiers like them and use them and how effective they are with them before committing to a big contract.

And I still expect my story is more accurate, with theirs being a reasonable expectation of what you'd get when some techie tells their manager what happened, who tells their manager, who tells the reporter.

To be clear, I'm not denying that what you say is literally true, just that by the time I'm done filtering that particular fact through my personal belief network and personal experiences, I still end up saying that my story is more likely. It's true enough that they put a "NULL" in, it's just that the way the private firm does that is most likely that the field agents leave it blank, some software somewhere puts a NULL in some database, and the report that comes out for the enforcing authority has NULL in it. For a reporter, it's not a false statement, it's just not all the technical details.

With this story, the responsibility ends up distributed in a very plausible manner I've seen many times over; HN readers could fill in a dozens of similar stories no problem. It's a problem characteristic of these sorts of systems and the way they tend to communicate with each other.

Chicken buses are awesome. I’ve been on the one from the second picture in Nicaragua. Someone even had a chicken. The best part is most of them still have US school system wording on the side. I remember seeing “School System of Milwaukee” or something similar.
And how's it helping you verify the correctness of your codebase at compile time (it still compiles the source to byte-code before evaluation)? Last time I checked, it didn't care too much about type annotations, and it didn't type-check anything before execution without additional shoehorning.

>No other mainstream whatever

C#, Rust. Notice that I don't even mention my man Haskell or Scala while the latter one is really big.

>literal (dependent) types

Uh, even Java has dependent types, anyway. Read the docs.

>templates

Yes, that's parametric polymorphism. No, it's garbage in C++ to the point where you can't guarantee the soundness of a template. It's done in Java, Kotlin, C#, TypeScript, for the most mainstream ones, not to mention that (and how exactly) it's done in Haskell and Scala.

Edit: How do you feel about type-level programming, anyway? ;)

>If you could farm without buying chemicals or reducing yields, you should go out and do it, you would put everyone else out of business and make a killing.

You can farm without buying chemicals or reducing yields, there are people doing it right now. https://brownsranch.us/

That doesn't mean everyone can rush out and buy a few thousand acres of land and start doing it, as very few people have the capital to do so. And even if you could get the loan, agriculture isn't a very good investment, you'd be better off being a venture capitalist rather than investing in farming. This is why there are virtually no new farmers, and of the tiny number there are almost all of them are small scale vegetable growers selling produce at farmer's markets. And you wouldn't make a killing, you would drive the price down and make a minimal return on your investment, just like what has happened with every single advance in farming yield per dollar spent.
I think your math is off - planes are usually loaded with people and per person mile far better than a mere roadtrip. You should divide the airplane emissions by at least 70. Fluid friction vs rolling helps a lot.

While trains and fully loaded buses may be superior it is still far from the worst evil for long distances.

Good thing these aren't the only ways to travel then. The fact that driving is insanely wasteful doesn't mean flying is environmentally friendly.
> Google still has a long way to go before they solve the search problem

For any search query, there's only two results:
1, what you're actually looking for

Unfortunately Google has 'solved' the search problem by always optimising for 2, and most times it's never what you want to see. That's not just health results either, for most anything outside of 'pop culture' Google is garbage.

"In the Disneyland example, what is being "sold" is the Disneyland trip"

In my example the Disneyland trip was a prize. We agree that the magical transportation is puffery, as we agree that the child travelling to school in a jet is puffery. But just as it doesn't automatically follow that just because the magical transportation is puffery, so too is the Disneyland prize. It doesn't automatically follow that the jet plane itself is puffery, just because the teenager travelling to school in one is puffery.

$700k is a lot of money, that in itself is going to limit how many people are going to try to buy anything. And lets say they did believe they were going to get 'a' Harrier maybe they thought it was going to be a second hand Mk1 Harrier that isn't worth nearly so much, and even then how do you go about valuing and selling something like that. A nation state probably wouldn't be interested, so a private collector, but how many of those are there? Would they want to buy from a Pepsi swilling teenager? How quickly? How much storage and transport/fuel fees are you going to incur?

All of that is itself enough risk to justify only $700k on a potential $23m.

You're right that its a contract issue, even if they had advertised an actual Harrier for $700k they still wouldn't have had to sell it ( under UK contract law anyway, I understand it to be the same in the US)
And so all library functions should be async by default? And if everything is async, then shouldn't synchronous programming require the extra keyword instead of the other way around?
I would rather they upsized it slightly. The Volt is essentially a Cruze body with a different drivetrain, and it is pretty small. I looked at buying one but banging my head on the roof on my way to sit down made me rethink the plan. It doesn't even need to be that much bigger, maybe just taller. A Prius, by comparison, is pretty spacious.

This headline is about "young men". No skin color or ethnicity is specified.

But have you noticed that when those Muslim attacks happen, societies mobilize and often the results are wars? The US has spent several trillions of dollars fighting Islamic extremism (not to mention the costs of law enforcement focusing on this at the expense of white collar crime, etc) when the data clearly show that white male extremism is by far a bigger threat today.

Would you rather we spend money on a war against these extremists, or would you rather we think about and discuss the systemic forces that lead to these results?

I used to run an extension cord out of my 2nd floor window, but I wasn't parking on the street. My space was off the driveway, behind a fence and a gate, but only about 12 feet from the curb.

More recently, I had been parking an electric car in my apartment's lot, and running an extension cord from the exercise room, out to the car. Then the apartment decided to close off those outlets.

In both cases, the car's battery was only 24Kwh. With 110 volts, it took about 18 hours to fully charge. With a battery the size of a Tesla, that charging rate is going to take all week.
Right, you cut them in on the subscription fees. The theater gets more people willing to go to the movies and the distributor gets pretty much a guaranteed income every month. Figure out the average amount of money people spend on movies every year, divide by 12, and make that the monthly fee. The distributor would see mostly the same income (holiday months might bring in less than years past but the slow months would bring in more than usual). If the average movie goer sees one movie per month with a ticket costing $12, make that the monthly fee. Offer tiered subscriptions if it helps reduce people from going too often.

It's like a gym membership. People like having the option to go to the gym whenever they want. Many gyms offer a per use fees but if you want to go more than once or twice a month, it is cheaper to have the membership. Actual operating costs are fairly low (machines aren't too expensive to fix and clean) but the real money maker is in all of the extra goods and services that you pay extra for.
The Great Land Robbery
> Is the fence on their property?

Even if the values were precise, the fence can never be precisely located. Land/parcel demarcations don't work that way. Also, GPS coordinates change over time. Or rather, the land underneath moves.

Fence or other land locations are always relative (to an official surveyor's point), not absolute.

Rewinding a little:

> Imagine, for a moment, that someone uses these values to put up a fence.

There's your first problem.

For technical queries it's gotten even worse in the past years. It flat out ignores string matches or decides that I wanted something else. What's even stranger is that there are sites that match these strings 1:1 and they are helpful but they don't show up. I discovered that while scrabbling through Stackoverflow answers and then trying to find a site I knew had all the specific keywords. It's also not robots.txt or something like that, most of these were just regular blogposts on either github oder blogger. They probably drank too much AI kool-aid.

These data, and your broader argument seem to ignore that rail travel can be relatively easily converted to renewable energy, while flying (so far) cannot. Aviation alone would consume 25% of our 2050 carbon budget.

Sure he did nothing wrong because it backfired like one of Wile E. Coyote's schemes but the article makes it clear he was hoping to confuse automatic ticketing systems. He was trying to get out of tickets. Sure he didn't break the letter of the law but he tried to break the spirit of the law and it bit him. Some might call that karma, I think he needs a better hobby than standing in line at the DMV which is ultimately what he has taken up. I wonder how long he'll keep going.

Balance of power.

You can draw an analogy to price elasticity in economics (more directly, the cost of switching). Because of identity theft, the expected cost of business between you and the bank has gone up. Who has an easier time switching to an alternative: you (to another bank), or the bank (to another customer)? Based on that, you can conclude, fairness aside, who ends up carrying the burden of addressing the identity theft.
docs.rs is run by the Rust team these days, so it is also "official", but documents un-official things.
Yeah the only way I'd ever say election ID laws were ok and no discriminatory attempts to shape the electorate would be if it were accompanied by a) a massive expensive push to ensure everyone had and ID (mobile DMVs going and registering people who can't get out to an office, free licenses, etc) and automatic voter registration (because if you're going to say everyone needs to have this to vote I damn well be able to vote with just the ID).

Why does everyone need a place to charge at home? Sure, it is one of the big advantages of an EV, but not everyone can take advantage of it. If the car has a 300-400 mile range, then charge it like you fuel up a gas-powered car. Takes a little bit longer, but that will improve over time.
Just a friendly reminder that "matter of national security" refers to the security of those currently in a position of power, the people here is incidental.
That'll be a hard sell - I imagine as we move to more climate friendly policies our ability to produce is going to go down - it'll be hard to convince employers that giving more vacation days and becoming even less efficient with the employees is a good choice.

Of course, we've been becoming increasingly more efficient and we're not getting more time off, so you're damned if you do, you're damned if you don't.

> Google monetizes your data themselves

That's what I thought abt Facebook and Twitter: It looks like they might ship anonymized (or not) data to third-parties when appropriate. Amazon, too, make a lot of data available to sellers on their platform.

Google could be doing that, too, in the guise of claiming to do something else. Or, it already is.
It's been many years already and async/await has proven itself to be a viable feature for shared memory languages that want to be as good at concurrency as they can. Next step is literally dropping shared memory as there is pretty much nothing that can be done better on top of shared memory than syntactically sugared higher-order asynchronous programming primitives.

Yeah, that's just the old and cynical "everyone-is-corrupt" talking-point.

It fails rather obviously because (a) the article is comparing costs across countries, and other countries haven't found some magic system to increase accountability of politicians and beaurocrats that goes beyond not re-electing them.

And, (b), there are plenty of incentives for decision-makers to keep costs down. Don't you think the governor or Mayor of New York would crow endlessly if they managed to build subway <x> or tunnel <y> for a fraction of the usual costs? Have you noticed how California's high-speed rail project and its cost overruns have been terrible for three governors in a row?

I had daily standups at my last job and I dreaded them every day. It was mostly pointless.

The main problem is that I would have to take time out of my day, many times in the middle of a coding session, to have a 30/1 hour meeting where we could have mostly given the same information in the form of a simple slack message.

Since these standups were in the middle of the afternoon, I almost never actually got back into coding the rest of the day.

Now, I have no regularly scheduled meetings. Everything is as-needed and it's great.

I also noticed that business people love early morning standups and developers love mid-afternoon standups.

One of the reasons for that functionality I don't recall actually making it to an episode - tactical advantage in a fight. The rear section had increased maneuverability when separated, and it resulted in two targets for attackers, both of which could fire back.

Good riddance, IMO. They never meant much to begin with, the validation procedures were basically "can you pay the fee?", and they only added to user confusion.
You're missing the forest for the trees. While in some abstract sense, async/await is monadic, sure, Rust does not have the ability to express the monad abstraction, and it's unclear if it ever will be able to. Those details are what makes this topic interesting.
No, it‘s a completely new implementation. The whole backend and frontend is written from the ground up.

Yeah and this is huge. Not something I realised I needed coming from my experience in js, but it's a big deal in rust. It's not that different from needing to manually branch match arms and `into` your errors back for `Result`s, when those could all be communicated just as clearly with the far more concise `?`. The `.await` removes so much re-implementing the Future trait. It's been especially bothersome for me, because often I'm trying to figure out how this particular library implemented their Future. Now I feel like if I get the gist of how a Result is returned, I can apply identical reasoning to how `.await` is returning my Future, except that it's suspending the function and saving the state. Obviously that's what a generator does, but the `.await` syntax is far more expressive than `await` in js, because passing back that `Result` is a much more difficult thing to manage by hand.
The average car is only driven enough miles per day to require about one night of charging at 120V to top off. A lot of folks, even Tesla owners, get by fine just using existing 120V sockets.
All I can say, as a person who has been interested in electric cars for some time, when I went to my local GM dealer I was surprised at how much lies he used to try and discourage me from buying a Bolt.

Worse, when he started saying there were no local charger available he refuse to do a web search to prove his point since the last time I looked there were plenty available locally.

I just walked out, on the other hand I could have bought the car CASH if he had not lied.

The dealers are more than 50% of the problem!
