You say this like it's a bad thing, and not a person setting boundaries for how they are willing to interact with an audience.

But you drop "censorship" front and center about some random dude's YouTube channel and you're doing some sterling fearmongering throughout the thread in general so I'm going to be honest, I gotta think this is less about any sort of freedom to speech and rather about the privilege of being granted time on somebody else's soapbox--the demand to listened to.

Get your own.
Considering that they can't repair cars now, and often deliver cars with defects that shouldn't have left the factory floor, I think you're being wildly optimistic.
this is a hallmark of good software, and a breath of fresh air to see, given the amount of proprietary lock-in in software today.
you can still leave a shitty comment, its just your negative feedback in the binary only goes to the publisher to show them that they have missed the mark as opposed to signalling behaviour to others (still possible with comments).
Folks that buy trucks for utility will keep buying ICE trucks until the EVs solve that problem. For now, this EV truck is for folks in the city and suburbs - hardly any of them will see true off-roading.
Debt isn't going to impact inflation in the near or medium term, so long as people keep buying Treasuries.

There's no real alternative to stuffing money into Treasuries, so it's kind of a moot point right now.
Since Tesla is now the elephant in the room - it's possible Tesla is distorting the entire auto industry.

Tesla was one of the 5 largest companies in the world - something an auto manufacturer hasn't been in almost 50 years.

Tesla had BY FAR the highest P/E ratio for any company of that market cap (as a percentage of global wealth) in history.

Tesla's revenue growth is not much bigger than Alphabet's or Apple's - and these are companies with orders of magnitude more revenue and profit.

For the last 50-ish years - outside of a few small companies (Ferrari, etc) - auto manufacturing has been a pretty terrible business.

Tesla people keep trying to say that Tesla is really an infrastructure play or an Internet company or a services companies or even a space company - but... currently it's not. And even if it became any of those things - even at it's current growth rate - its P/E to growth rate is still unbelievably high.

I don't really care if GM and Ford and Rivian are now overvalued - and compared to them Tesla is undervalued. Auto manufacturing is not suddenly going to become the most profitable business in the world. People aren't going to suddenly start paying more for cars than housing. People aren't going to suddenly own 30 cars a piece. Tesla is never going to grow enough to be worth it's current market cap. But the market can stay irrational longer than you can stay solvent - and I wouldn't take a bet that Tesla crashes if my life depended on it.
That question doesn't even enter my mind unless it's a lot more extra than usual. As an example, Chik-fil-a's insistence on having their staff respond with "my pleasure" to "thank you" feels exceedingly weird.

If I have to think about the staff's conduct, good or bad, usually that means something is wrong.
I'm not sure why it matters whether the cost is one time or ongoing. Either way, wheelchair ramps were simply one example. There are plenty of other accessibility considerations that do have ongoing costs. Elevators are probably the most similar parallel that have both an upfront cost and an ongoing maintenance cost and are often required for the same accessibility reasons.
> How does the dislike button indicate propaganda?

Take the Gillette ad as a great example. No dislike button? Now the “lack of downvotes” can be used to indicate the normalization of such propaganda and imply people support the message.
And exactly zero people are surprised that miniscule, random tweaks to images are imperceptible to humans but obviously trash the hash.
If they both have the bare minimum to survive, redistributing from one to the other puts the first below the minimum. If someone has a surplus, the efficient thing is to trade it. If they don't, redistribution hurts them as much as it helps another. There is no free lunch.

Again, that is the definition of pareto efficiency.
What comes to mind is the fact that the prevalence of adults with a disability in the United States is significantly higher in rural areas compared to large metropolitan areas and those rural areas are already underserved by commuting options given the current model.

To your point that they are more financially limited — that is the reason why disability benefits exist.
You're comparing, what, the booming 90s to now?

That said, I don't think anyone ever thought interviews were anxiety free.
Personal anecdote - several months ago I got an interview at a prestigious big tech company. I couldn't sleep properly for at least a week before the interview and I failed. I also track my bodyweight and I can see a spike up just after the interview and then another one after I got rejected - I gained over 10kg (22lbs) in the following weeks while before that I was successfully losing weight for a while.
Absolutely. It is so much easier to just silence your opposition.
I looked into buying a taxi medallion recently - they are historically very cheap and would dramatically increase in value if Uber and Lyft fail.

Turns out that there are a lot of financial incentives available from city/state/federal governments for attaching the taxi medallion to a wheelchair-accessible vehicle.
SuperCruise by most accounts is ahead of "FSD" in real-world driving.

Source? SuperCruise is geofenced to highways, so it can't even drive in areas that FSD can so I'm not sure this is the right comparison.
In real life you'll ask them why there's a bug on production - and he'll tell you wait 5 minutes I'm checking/reproducing the issue. It's very rare that you'll have to get an answer immediately - this isn't emergency medicine. We're only programmers.
If I'm not wrong, I think this is the Fleetsmith acquisition that happened last year.

> how important have metalinguistic capabilities been for your work?

Barely important for me but I use DSLs (for example to generate html) which wouldn't be possible to implement and change that easily for my usecase.

> Or would you rather use a system that glues together various tools that are focused on whatever approach is needed for a specific piece?

One important property for me is that the DSL used is implemented in the language it is being used from and modifiable at run time. Mathematica does the embeds stuff really well but I find it hard to work with.

Mixing DSLs is hard or close to impossible in Lisp though. I had better experiences in Julia in that regard.

You must not frequent the same subset of videos I watch.

Well the HP docks are not even that reliable with HP computers anyway lol. I’ve been deploying the HP docks for a few years at the company I work for and I’ve been through a few different versions by now and I’ve gotten through all kinds of crap like the DisplayPort firmware just disappearing. Or the dock is detected but doesn’t put out video, or audio, or turns on but nothing else happens. They seem to have a lot going on internally in regards of firmware. But at least HP releases updates frequently.
It's hard to not be nervous for these interviews especially when coming from a non-FANG / huge tech company. The salary difference and opportunity can very much change your life. I don't have advice for this, but what you said resonates with me.
This seems very obvious. Neural networks are the "best" image detectors we have. It's documented that they can be easily fooled.

The insidious thing is that this can used as a pretext to make the filters flag more images since this would seem to make it "harder to hide illegal images", until Apple just personally scans everything.
Came to mention Bun when I saw this hit the front page. I’ve been following Jarred’s Twitter since I heard about Bun and it’s quite impressive (albeit incomplete). To folks wondering why another bundler/what makes Bun special:

- Faster than ESBuild/SWC

- Fast build-time macros written as JSX (likely friendlier to develop than say a Babel plugin/macro). These open up a lot of possibilities that could benefit end users too, by performing more work on build/server and less client side.

- Targeting ecosystem compatibility (eg will probably support the new JSX transform, which ESBuild does not and may not in the future)

- Support for integration with frameworks, eg Next.js

- Other cool performance-focused tools like Hop and Peechy[1] (though that’s a fork of ESBuild creator’s project Kiwi)

This focus on performance is good for the JS ecosystem and for the web generally.

It's the first time i've seen "WAG".

I was thinking about "Worldwide AggreGate" or something like that when i've read your comment.
Okay, now explain why this is happening outside FAANG too and why we should accept it.
Why do you assume a priori that my youtube experience must include recommendations from a biased source and why are you against viewers taking matters into their own hands to craft the youtube experience they wish?

They could craft a set of hot button keywords to deliver a much better experience (i.e. if I say I don't like sports, then don't recommend sports videos) but they choose otherwise and handwave a bunch of mumbo jumbo just like what you wrote.

Imagine if you could no longer choose what to watch on your TV but instead it chose for you. Are you good with that?
Agreed though it's weird you can still purchase Fleetsmith directly.

For sure, some people will benefit from such policies and some people wont. My figuring is that those in the parent comment's category of "middle class and saving for a home" are probably not in the camp of those benefiting from current policies (holding cash). Those policies are, what I can tell, keeping valuations high instead of raising rates, and providing an incentive not to hold cash and instead purchase and invest.

Whether that's fair vs protecting those who already have homes and other assets is I suppose a different question. I agree things have remained fairly stable so far as the result of printing but I suspect we likely haven't felt it's effects yet and the stabilization will continue well into the next year, though the future is always fickle to predict.
"I'm not aware of any library which uses struct tags to encode anything that anyone might call a DSL."

There's a couple of struct validation libraries that got IMHO a bit overexcited with what you can jam in a struct tag and then interpret, but they don't seem to have gotten very popular, so it doesn't factor into the language much.
Are you anxious in general? Or do you have some issue with tests? I hate algorithm interviews like the next guy but it sounds like you have it worse than most.
Cavities. We trade off bandwidth for peak sensitivity by sending the same light back and forth between mirrors in the arms of the interferometer hundreds of times. As the gravitational wave passes, the same light samples it over and over and picks up additional phase shift, enhancing the signal. The downside is that we can't see gravitational waves at signals far above the cavity pole frequencies at a few 10s of kHz, but the most promising sources we aimed at when the detectors were designed were considered to be below that.

We also use techniques called power and signal recycling to enhance this bandwidth-sensitivity tradeoff even more. Combined these techniques give you what remains between your 1/1000th wavelength and the actual sensitivity of LIGO and Virgo.
I guess getting downvoted on this means there is no chance of a third party....

I did not say it was always the case. I said "plenty of", not "every".

> There was a time when IS had control of a significant unchanging area of land

Unchanging is not the same as uncontested, and I'd argue that IS never had an "unchanging" area of land. Every square foot of IS territory was actively contested, and if you look at the map of its territory over time it moves and shifts and is full of uncontrolled pockets. The nice, clean maps of IS territory on the news were in fact simplifications for easy public consumption. The real situation on the ground was always much more fluid and complex than that. If you look at a map[0] of the actual territory that IS controlled, it is pretty far from the necessary boundaries to run a state. Put bluntly, this is a battle map, not the kind of map that you can make a state out of.

Even the areas that IS held, it did not hold for very long or very securely. Take Tikrit, for example, which IS only held from June 2014 to March 2015, with forces massing for the attack in February. It's hard to argue that a group holds "unchanging" territory when major cities are changing hands every 10 months or so. Furthermore, if an opposing force is able to mass an army outside your city and put siege to it, you are very far away from having "sufficient ability to defend their borders". Given that IS' territorial claims collapsed rather quickly, I think that assertion is pretty good.

> Hence being referred to as “so-called Islamic State” most of the time in news broadcasts.

Right, because the war was still on, IS was still trying to seize the land and fortify the borders of what they hoped would eventually be their state. If IS had won or fought the battle to a draw, I have no doubt that they would have gotten roughly the same level of international recognition that say, North Korea gets and they'd stop being "so called". But they didn't do that, so they never stopped being "so called".

Really, the counter example you should have gone for here is Haiti. Haiti unquestionably was capable of defending its borders, and in fact repelled several attempts to retake the island. It also did not get recognized for nearly 20 years by basically anyone until they agreed to reimburse France for the loss of their property, including distastefully the value of the slaves who were now free. While plenty of states get recognized once they manage to successfully hold and defend territory, not every state gets recognized that way. Sometimes other factors dominate, such as the fear of other slave holding states in recognizing the independence of a country created via a slave revolt.

or perhaps its merely co-incidental but because some people/activists are always so thirsty about politics _any_ event can be correlated to their political lens.

The only interviews I have a reasonable chance of passing are take home tests. I'm a good coder, not a performing monkey.
I agree and disagree. For my gaming desktop, I'd just reinstall apps to get a fresh start.

I started my own software consulting/contracting thing this summer and if my machine crashed, every hour I'm not working is costing me money. So setting up all my apps again to get a fresh start isn't worth it. With TimeMachine on my NAS, I just get the replacement computer and let it restore while I sleep. Then I'm good to go the next morning.
Not sure if it will play out the same way but I remember the arrival of the iPhone. Lots of people defended Nokia and RIM (Blackberry) and a few years later they were completely decimated.

I’d be curious why or why not it would play out the same way.
I'd be interested in helping if anyone is working on a project.

I'd also like to see this done web-wide.
Less a show of strength IMO and more of a using the fire extinguisher to put out a fire.

Well 16:9 has been the format in laptops for a long time. Why wouldn’t they conform to that?

The goal of research like this is to motivate exactly that (changing the companies)
Making fines fund the people who determine the fine is a really bad incentive structure, you will see a lot more fines for sure but the system would be much more prone to corruption.
I hope they do and that the fine gets doubled as a result. Companies always appealing to the highest courts is only a function of the amount of cash they have, whatever happened to: "Judge says so, so that's it". It's just trying to do an end-run around the system by always clogging up the courts from low to high.
Depends on the city. Some make it a mandatory part of having a licensed cab.
I like to work with people that take a day and get the best solution, not the people that get an ok solution right away. To understand the essence of what is needed rather than the brute force answer. I also find a lot of people can function at that level when the environment is structured to reward deep thought and to help people calm themselves to the point they can think.
If it's public health you're so interested in, you might want to get the "public" on board with your ideas, lest you be on the side of propaganda.

You're posting on HN. I'm willing to bet you wouldn't be as interested in posting comments on r/housekeeping. Superficially, HN and r/housekeeping are the same thing since they both have a form to input comments. Obviously, there's more to it, and good reasons for both to exist.

I disagree with your casually dismissive "digital equivalent of making an ashtray in pottery class". Dendron supports a specific workflow, something that takes a lot of effort to get right. And if they're going to get into syncing and collaboration, that's a challenge. As someone that has been watching this space for a long time, there's plenty of room for new entrants.

> If someone has a surplus, the efficient thing is to trade it.

With only two people, the most efficient thing to do is to trade it for the bare minimum the other person needs to survive. Beyond that is not Pareto efficient.
And what you learn after a few years in the real world is that, when school tells you "this is the right way", they're almost always wrong. Or, there at least almost always wrong in many circumstances. The real world is a lot more complicated than they teach you in school, and the correct answer is almost always "it depends".

Should you avoid if-statements? It depends. What are you going to have to do instead? You're going to have to do something. Is that something going to be more understandable for your co-workers for the lifetime of the code? Maybe, depending on your co-workers. Maintainability over the lifetime of the code far outweighs and "should" that they tell you at school.
Unfortunately, other companies copy FAANG because FAANG are the most successful companies. We don't have to accept it. We just have to choose our battles. As I said, if you want the kind of money/work these companies offer, there's just no other choice these days.
Silicon Zeroes [1] starts out slightly more abstracted than what you described (byte-level operators, register files, ALUs, that sort of thing) and builds up to a full CPU.

To be honest, not being allowed to drive your own vehicle is probably a good thing.

See e.g. https://www.cdc.gov/injury/features/global-road-safety/index.... From the first few paragraphs:

Road traffic crashes are a leading cause of death in the United States for people aged 1–54

More than half of those killed are pedestrians, motorcyclists, or cyclists.

Drivers risk other people's lives, hence, other people have a right to demand safety from drivers' actions. Supposing computers do get better than humans in the future, why not just stop humans from doing this dangerous activity?

If someone wants to do some old school driving in 2040, go have fun on a private racetrack or whatever. You can even ignore speed limits.
Why don't you think they will eventually sell a more affordable car? The factories are all maxed out with higher margin cars today, but they are building more factories and on a path to reduce battery prices.
I'm a huge go proponent, but I do think the lack of map/filter/find etc. is a big downside to the language. I know how to write for (if item == myItem...) or a for (if item > max...) but it feels like a colossal waste of time every single time I write one of these loops.

Go would benefit a lot more from some basic slice manipulation tools compared to features like generics that have actually made it into the language.

The error handling I don't find so frustrating - it's great that it explicitly marks at the call site which functions can potentially error. It's like a working version of an inverse noexcept from C++. I do wish they would take a leaf out of swifts book though, with the try keyword. In practice error handling flow in my go programs is identical to using exceptions, it would be nice to have some helpers to make this default less verbose without losing the ability to distinguish at the call site which calls are error-y.
