> support laws around freedom of speech.

And that’s where my alarm bells started to go off. I have never heard an anti-“cancel culture” bill that doesn’t end up being authoritarian and anti-free speech gobbley gook. After all, the only solutions here are to restrain the free speech of the “mob”, or to restrict the free association rights of businesses and other people.

It’s always very poorly thought out, unconstitutional junk that’s at best thrown out to sate the culture war crowd with the desperate hope that the courts will strike it down before we’re stuck with the actual consequences. At worst, it’s actually an authoritarian push by cynical politicians who hope to use it as a cudgel to beat their opponents with the power of the state.
If the delivery companies can't handle the simple proposition of being liable for their employees' actions like every other company is, then good riddance.
Considered and widely rejected due to issues like acid rain, ozone depletion, and decreased photosynthesis. Maybe if carefully distributed at optimal locations and altitudes you could maximize the cooling effects while minimizing damage, but random emission from flights in no way optimized for that purpose? No, it's just pollution.

Yes, it would be just like the attributes that already exist for getting the caller method name, line, and file. It's unfortunate, but it would be a bigger language change to fix that.

C rating still applies, charging at 1C is usually "fast" charging for most cells and that takes an hour, charging in 5 minutes is is 12C which is normally "bad", would need lots of active cooling.

50kw would take 2 hours on a 100kwh pack so it would only be 0.5C. To do it in 5 minutes would require 1.2 megawatts of charge rate.
DARPA’s spacecraft became the x-37B, which probably has fuck-with-satellites capability via robot arm but a rather paltry 4 ft by 7 ft payload bay (The shuttle had 15 ft by 60 ft !)
> The term "Assault Rifle" is more commonly associate d with anti-gun organizations as it has become a emotionally charged word

Every game I've played where it is relevant uses the "Assault Rifle" term, and way more young people are familiar with game definitions than anything else. Here is roughly how weapons are defined in games:

Submachine gun - Automatic pistol with large clip.

Rifle - Single shot long barrel higher calibre weapon

Battle Rifle - Burst fire rifle with large clip

Assault Rifle - Automatic fire rifle with large clip

Machine gun - Belt fed automatic fire rifle

Edit: Nothing legal about the above, of course, just noting what the general population would associate with each term. And you can understand why people would be worried about automatic fire high calibre weapons. They aren't useful for anything other than to kill lots of people.
You can refuse to remove content without a court order even if you're legally allowed to remove it without one. Why should they choose to create a bad user experience by removing content via algorithms? They could just not.
Yeah, you'll have to pry my 120 year old Griswold from my cold, dead hands.

On a less emotional level: the way they were cast is night-and-day different from what's sold as cast iron today. The pores on my Griswold are an order of magnitude smaller than those on my Lodge (that I just haven't gotten around to throwing away because I never use). It's a much smoother surface, and therefore develops a very different - and much better - patina than the modern stuff can/does.

Edit: 120, not 220 years old.
It won’t just be from drug companies. There will be patient advocate groups as well. Not to mention politicians keen on bringing bad the “death panel” talking points.
You have to keep going. All successful people accumulate the results of their past mistakes.

I don't think a distributed system or machine learning tool will work better for a guy with a piece of paper from Stanford or Harvard than for a guy who is willing to do the work.

People identify excellence. A degree can only say so much about a person's experience and knowledge.
Counting Mosaics with APL
I don't see it happening. AMD like Nvidia want to keep their big corporate clients locked into their ecosystem.

If Intel were clever like a fox, they'd invest heavily in making oneAPI work well on both Nvidia and AMD platforms. As a new market entrant they have nothing to lose, but everything to gain by luring companies into a vendor agnostic solution.

They've already starting doing this to a degree, but only in partnership with some university. This should be one of their major KPIs, they've got plenty of cash laying about.

I don't think I saw that person's testimony, so I'll have to find and review it. Thank you for that. If this is correct, then I would correct my wording from re-racking to racking. You're right that it casts doubt on whether he was not prepared to shoot anyone. After all, why'd he prepare his gun to fire if he wasn't willing to do so?
This is well-documented, though I don’t know for certain when it became the norm.

If you go back to the 1999 Seattle WTO protests, you mostly see people using short, concealable weapons, such as wooden clubs.

At some point, the gear of choice evolved towards the plausibly deniable, including skateboards, umbrellas, etc.

Definitely agreed on the TAO and surveillance, upvoted in fact for that.

But, again, I'll "buy that bridge" when it comes to an Apple product-supply-chain being hacked by a state actor to target an individual.

CCP can't bank on a specific Apple product being purchased by a specific person routed through their side/controlled supply chain.

As before, most apple products are not routed directly from China to a consumer. This is a pretty rare circumstance given the supply chain bottlenecks.

I agree both sides have the ability to "hold product" in the shipping lane to do all sorts of nefarious things, but that only works if you can predict that movement (i.e. destination being on "your side" of control). The specific circumstances matter here and they don't make it an attack vector against a specific person.
Simple answer: The change is a cargo cult. They see how Apple does this with their products and keep increasing uptake. They don't know that it isn't only the visible change itself that motivates adoption. Apple is keenly aware. Apple's customer isn't the person using Apple's product--that person can be inconvenienced (plus they tend to self-brainwash). The real Apple customer is the person watching an affluent/influential person using an Apple product and imagining how nice it must be based on the (superficial) clean simplicity of it all.
It's just fundamentally the wrong type for what it's supposed to represent. What I'd prefer isn't any more concise in lines or characters, it simply actually represents what it's supposed to.

"a*, error" has 4 different members, if you consider just "exists" vs "doesn't exist" for each. Of those, "nil, nil" and "&a{}, errors.New("whatever")" are broken. Fully half of the things you can represent are just wrong.

(Yes there are times when those are valid returns, but easily 99% of the time they're not. The type system should be able to represent both ways.)
Generally subsidies don’t apply if you’re getting an employer subsidy, and they drop off quickly as you rise over the poverty line.

I have no clue how the math works on average in terms of 35k jobs offering a subsidy at all, vs the marketplace subsidy. But even at a 50% subsidy it’s still not much money to raise a family on.
My word. Well I never. I do believe you are trolling. I haven't expressed any opinion about this Rosenbaum person who, I should stress, I just learned about in this thread.

Not everyone needs to take a side in cases like this. My opinion - uninformed or super informed - has no impact on the case (neither does yours), and I am not a stakeholder in this case. I have some trust in the justice system (and mostly, I'm pretty busy at the moment).

But like I said, guy driving in from out of town with a gun to defend the property of strangers is asking for trouble. And just to ward off more weird replies like this one, I'm aware that he's not the only active party in this incident.
I thought web2.0 was the rise of AJAX and web pages starting to look an function like apps.

> Freedom of speech is not the same as the freedom to spout anything without repercussion. Nor do we have to tolerate the intolerant (reference: Karl Popper, free speech and the paradox of tolerance).

It’s interesting that you’re regurgitating this fairly standard talking point in response to my comment even though it refutes a point my comment never made. It’s as if you grepped the term “freedom of speech” in my comment and that mechanically triggered this cookie cutter response. As long as you’re not thinking critically about the content you are reading, you’ll never have an original thought that actually may be intolerable to those in power.
Yeah, fair, it's ambiguous wording, although the "without saying goodbye" segues into "or that he loved them" You still have the option of fabricating a comforting lie around the latter part.
For resource management, Java/C# have try-with-resources/using statements. Python has `with`, golang has "defer".

"Move to Texas" is a solution in your head, not in real life.

Let's see what one needs to do to move:

You need to find a job in Texas. That means in-person interview for service workers. That means also losing current job, because you need to be away from your job for interviews, and those jobs don't have vacations.

So, to boot, you need:

* Enough money to keep your family afloat while you're looking for a job

* Money to pay for hotel while you're interviewing

* Money to pay for a deposit on a new lease in Texas

* Money to cover breaking the lease in your hometown

* Money to go back and forth and actually move your possessions and family (several thousand dollars to either move things or sell/buy everything)

Oh wait, your service job wasn't enough to provide for your family to begin with. Your spouse had to work too, and either or both of you had a "side gig", i.e. a second job to make ends meet.

New task:

* Have spouse find a job or two in the same area

* Find a second job for yourself in Texas that works with the hours and commute for your first job

* Have money to cover the deficit in the meantime

Oh wait, but you also have children. How do you have kids if you're both working?

* Have money to pay for childcare

Haha, of course not. You can't afford that; yours and your spouse's parents were helping out. New quest:

* Also move them to Texas, find places for them to live at, jobs to work at (retirement? Hahahaha), and so on.

But wait! Everyone in your family has health issues, because working those jobs isn't healthy. Your job was crappy, but at least it had health insurance.

* Have enough money to cover all medical expenses out of pocket while you were looking for jobs

Oh, and you're still paying out loans on your vehicle that you need to get to work (and maybe a degree that didn't pan out), plus credit card debt (because you never have enough money to pay it all off)

* Have enough money to cover all the debt that you have because you don't have the money to pay for things that you need to make money

Too bad though, it turns out that you took a risk looking for jobs in a different city that didn't work out. The jobs in Texas that you can find are available because they don't pay enough for the locals to take them. Go figure, minimum wage in Texas is half that of your home state.

Now you're out of money, out of work, without insurance, and with an employment gap what makes it harder to find work.

Having lost medical care, your health issues get worse, making it harder to find work.

So, what exactly should California do to make the above "move to Texas" easier?
The requirement is that you be in fear for your life or the life of another in your vicinity. Let's say you grabbed a Bic pen, and went for someone's neck with it: in this situation the courts would favor the persons right to self defense given the credible threat to their life. The same counts for something that is a risk to incapacitate them, because courts have historically favored the argument that what happens after you are disarmed or incapacitated could result in death.

I'm not saying it's right, I'm just offering my observations of precedent.
"If we can't have a seat at the space table, we are willing to destroy the table"
Indeed! I am sure I missed quite a few high speed systems.

India is in the shape of a diamond, where the most populous cities would be at the four points of the diamond aligned North-South. A high speed train network that would cover Delhi, Kolkata, Chennai and Mumbai together as a fully connected graph will probably have the highest volume of traffic. [1]

A trip from Trivandrum, Kerala or Kanya Kumari, Tamil Nadu in the South of India to the stations in Assam or Arunachal Pradesh in the North East of India would be some of the longest trips that you can take.

India has also some of the most beautiful railway lines in the world with switchbacks connecting the plains to the hill stations. [2]

Also some of the most expensive train rides. [3]

Of course there's air travel for the time conscious but the trains are for the adventurous travelers.

BTW, One of the most interesting stays I had in the US was at the Chattanooga Choo Choo in Chattanooga, TN. [4]

> All I see is an ode to the 10x'er and how sucking up to them might keep them around long enough to be successful.

Don't get me wrong: I enjoy Dan Luu's writings and I'm thankful that he shares his thoughts.

That said, a lot of his recent writings present extremely rare, specialized situations like small teams of carefully-selected 10X-er type programmers who are hand-picked from their sterling reputations and naturally extremely motivated. If you find yourself in a top 1% unicorn team like that, a lot of his writings ring true. Trying to apply arbitrary big-company management to highly-optimized, high-performing teams like that is a mistake.

However, statistically most of us won't be working on or managing those unicorn teams. Trying to apply top-1% advice to the median team is going to result in a lot of mismatches.

Generally speaking, HN isn't a great place to get any sort of management advice. The userbase is mostly IC engineers, and as a result the upvotes tend to follow what IC engineers want to hear. Writing an article about making the difficult management choices that come with managing real-world (not top-1%) teams is hard to do without upsetting a lot of readers, so instead we get a lot of "engineers good, managers bad" type articles even if the authors start out with best intentions.
The word "caste" is derived from the Portuguese castas.

The European class system is essentially what transformed into the Indian caste system.

Not to mean there was no social hierarchy in India, but the rigid birth based system we have today is the handiwork of the British social engineering.

Especially interesting is the population survey which labeled population with a caste, the power to label someone X lay with the enumerator rather than the person being enumerated self identifying with a caste.
this video compares co2 emissions of a tesla vs hybrid vs regular ice car. I think it is an interesting exploration of the topic although I think the presenter had a hard time getting correct data and his data on the EV is more conservative than Tesla's numbers.

I would definitely be interested in exploring this further. It seems probable to me that we won't have a better grasp on this for years yet as EVs are still pretty new and not widely adopted.

What exactly is the problem with a downpayment on a 350k (or, heck, 500k) unit? Obviously there are exceptional circumstances, e.g. you're supporting multiple people on your salary alone, which might make it difficult to save up 70-100k quickly.

But if you're single, your annual after-tax take-home is ~95k, assuming you max out your 401k contribution, and ~110k, assuming you don't contribute at all. Saving 50% of that does not even require living particularly frugally. That gets you to the top-end of the required down payment in 2 years.
The most popular truck in the US is the ford f150 which has a 26 gallon tank. The fill rate of gas stations is 10 gallons a minute in the USA (by law - they are capable of much faster fill rates). Even when only looking at trucks we are talking less than a 3 minute fill time for the vast majority of trucks.

There's a great book about this called "Seeing Like a State".
The reason that no one makes an issue of it is because he did not kill anyone and is therefore not the one on trial. If he had killed someone it is perfectly reasonable to bring this up. (Also as far as I know he did not illegally travel there or am I misunderstanding? )
None of what Rosen writes there resonates with me. This almost reads like the insufferable reddit comments where people claim you don't like Moby Dick or Shakespeare, that you are just parroting opinions you were told to hold in school. I read and listened widely, often discursively, and ended up liking stuff that none of my peers even knew about for the most part. And no, I wasn't trying to be an iconoclast, the endless teasing was oppressive, but what can you do, you like what you like.

Like I started with Bach because my mom showed me how to read music, then let me loose on the piano. I had a songbook, and it had Bach's (actually Petzold's) Minuet in G major&minor. That grabbed me in a way nothing else in the book did (kid's book, so stuff like silent night, camptown races, etc). No one 'told' me to like it, or even play it, and there was certainly no social pressure to do so, quite the opposite. It was entirely internal, and contrary to everything happening around me (pop, C&W, think rural uneducated population with a disdain for learning and the arts).

I'm not arguing that people can't develop appreciation via faking, but I find it a rather dismissive and cynical way to look at it in general. I would say it takes a bit of openness if you are approaching something that you didn't consume naturally in social situations, but not too much, except perhaps for very abstract things, or complex things far removed from your experience (Chinese opera for an American, for example, which fascinates yet eludes me at some level).

I definitely would agree that a lot of people in large orgs are unfortunately like that. I can corroborate that from having been in many of those. I can also attest to the fact that most managers don't deal with this. There is a lot of moving people around or simply ignoring the problem.

Now like my earlier sibling mentions, just because someone isn't a top performer at their current job at the current time doesn't mean they can't be great in another area or can learn. I have (and had) a bunch of people on my teams that were/are not senior people but they have a smart brain on their shoulders, are inquisitive and learn. Sure they don't know our stack fully, they don't have the exact same opinion on how to write code etc. but they are able to learn and adjust and maybe teach us where our customs aren't the best as well. And we teach them too.

I'm speaking of practices like at large banks where people have been hiding doing nothing but being on Facebook all day for 10 years and all that has happened is that every project manager tries to avoid getting these people assigned to their projects.
List Of All Cybersecurity Conferences 2021 – 2022
Zeppelins have all the slow speed of ships and all the inefficiency of flight. Remember, planes spend very little energy on keeping themselves in the air (hence why unpowered gliders can stay aloft for hours), their engines are for overcoming drag, pushing large volumes of air out of the way. Airships move at much lower speeds, but they have immensely larger cross sectional areas. They don't need to push it as fast, but to travel the same distance they must push substantially more air out of the way. Airships are great if you need long endurance, for example for aerial photography, but they're a terrible option for transportation.
