Kinda ironic when the plot made a big point of model airplane design being the same as big airplane design.

Sad when someone dies because of it though..

PS I'm surprised that thing was FAA certified. But this is really a case where a model would have been a lot safer.

I've been programming Windows machines on and off forever.

I've never needed .NET libraries in my code, and never have seen the point, it always breaks, and seems to add orders of magnitude of bloat.

There's no real need for it, can't the rest of you skip it as well?
rage, rage against the dying of the light.
I just wish go had better json support.

I love the language, but I always end up going back to nodejs for API development because of how ridiculously easy it is to implement json based http APIs.
If you feel that having a degree is a requirement to move forward , then I suggest you act with haste and either go back to Study full time now or perhaps more sensibly, enrol on a part time remote degree course and secure that Degree, it’s a frequently trodden path by those who didn’t do so well at school and it provides an excellent qualification to meet most, if not all, recruitment requirements. I have a degree from Uni, my brother has an equivalent engineering degree gained through ongoing part time study , luckily he was guided along that path from age 16 and has found it very enabling in his ongoing career .

Carbon steel pans also are much smoother… and at 20% of the price of the Stargazers.
When the numbers are large enough, the details don't matter much. Maybe he is really only a 250x engineer? A 100x engineer? It doesn't change the fact that without him no product would have been delivered.

Thank you for the explanation (genuinely). I wasn't exactly being sarcastic, though - my interest is in the messaging that this gun carries when wielding it in a urban environment during a riot.
This is a really interesting and deceptively simple idea. "Animate technical papers" seemed (to me) like a silly concept as a one-liner, but the example really does the media format justice and totally changed my mind - why hasn't this been done before!

Well done Rahul!
> Even the people that you think are “10xers” will stumble under the right circumstances, and the converse is also true about the people you think are incompetent.

Right, the 10x engineer isn't benching 10x more than you or running 10x faster than you, nobody thinks that 10x engineer means 10x at every possible task.
Super impressive Wysiwyg editor. Which part of the product did you build first? Did you build an example output page first the the editor, or did you start from the editor itself?
I remember a day when one of my engineer's full days of work was one line of code. Not all lines of code are made equal
Yeah agreed. It is definitely very welcome syntax sugar and I'll take it over JS callback hell or async/await stuff any day. I just wanted to point out that non-blocking I/O has been available in Java for a long time so high I/O throughput applications have been possible to build in Java even though it required more mental overhead.
I used to enjoy using Spotify before they added podcasts; now it’s kinda a UX/UI mess.
As far as I understand, Esperanto would not be considered a pidgin as it's an artificial, designed language. Pidgins are natural languages that form in order to facilitate communication in multilingual environments.
Here in a nice bit of BC almost every new home (and almost all renovated homes) come with a rental suite. The houses are massive, the lots are tinier than ever, and you’re essentially buying a duplex, regardless the price point. $450K 1930s renovation, it’ll have a suite. New $1.3M build, it’ll have a suite. And you’ll share your backyard and driveway with a tenant.

And while this is a very nice bit of BC, it’s also a fact that this is a rural and far-away bit of BC. Nonetheless, land and housing has gone nutso.
Yes, especially if that variable is an IDisposable that the library author also forgot to dispose. Like Microsoft's own System.IO.Ports.SerialPort with its underlying data stream.
If by "trip" you mean passengers, then that's not what I'm talking about. Of course taking care of a passenger for many days as opposed to a few hours would be expensive (large-ish cabin with a bed, food, service crew, recreational facilities etc.). The same passenger survives the flight just in a seat. On the other hand, it's all same to cargo.
Certainly there are technical challenges, but I don't see that as being different than technical challenges in other new areas. The non-technical challenges will be the barriers. I wasn't convinced these could be overcome in the near future, but I wasn't thinking as FB would. How could normal people be strongly influenced into doing non-normal things, and it seemingly become normal, spending excessive amounts of time in it? I can scarily think of some ways this could effectively be done with even a small fraction of ~FB~ Meta's resources.
Not reeeeally though. Because no new inventory is being created. Because amount of usable square footage actually decreases, you technically end up with less housing than you started with.

You start with a house that comfortably fit a family of 5, to 3 condos that can only house 1 person comfortably.
Which is why there needs to be clear culpability on the contracting out party. No diffusion of culpability. The contracting relationship is little more than a tool for cupabilitove obfuscation otherwise, which is just how it's applied.
See first two paras in wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caste_system_in_India

Excerpt:

The British Raj furthered this development, making rigid caste organisation a central mechanism of administration. Between 1860 and 1920, the British formulated the caste system into their system of governance, granting administrative jobs and senior appointments only to Christians and people belonging to certain castes.
> Do you have issues with 2.x releases?

Possibly; I've been hearing disturbing things about developments like different hash algorithms, and repositories being generated that older versions of git cannot read.

I'm nervous about creating a new central repository with newer git.
I'm talking about normal ice cubes. They can inflict bodily harm. With 'serious', does that mean you're suggesting a different definition from the one you quoted?

> This is why someone can be charged for assault with a deadly weapon while trying to run someone over with their car.

A car is at least in a medium category where it's not a generally safe object.

Remember that my original objection was saying someone was "armed". If we used the definition you gave to figure that out, I think almost everyone is armed. Or they transform from unarmed to armed when they smack someone??
Lots of people here defending making the tab bar less accessible who have probably never thought "gee, I wish those tabs didn't have lines delineating where one ends and the next begins!"

That's a good link.

Summary: DC is always a bit more efficient than AC. The reason our grid is AC is because high voltage transmission is much more efficient than low voltage transmission.* But you don't want multi-thousand volt feeds coming into your house, so voltage conversion is necessary. If you don't have power electronics, you have to use magnetic transformers to convert between voltages, and magnetic transformers only work on AC. Thus our electric grid is mostly AC.

Now that we have power electronics we can convert voltages without magnetic transformers, and AC is no longer a requirement except for backward compatibility.

*unless you have superconducting cables
So it depends a lot on the goals. CUDA is a very good developer experience, and Vulkan compute shaders is (at the moment) a very bad one. But if the goal is to ship real compute on a wide variety of devices, Vulkan is pretty close to the only game in town.

I also expect the language support and tooling to get a lot better. The fact that it's based on SPIR-V means it doesn't lock you into any one language, it's possible to develop good tools that run on top of it. That's happening to a large extent in the machine learning space with IREE, much less so here though.

I should also say, I'm not disagreeing with the strategy Blender has chosen, specifically getting vendors to support tuned ports to their hardware. I'm just saying that these specific criticisms of Vulkan (like lacking pointers) aren't really valid.
Or it's the result of some good wine, dinners and gifts. The spreadsheets justifying it can always be engineered afterwards.

"Make the active tab stand out more" feels like a problem that could be solved without making the UI for inactive tabs less accessible. :-/
No this is a 2020 Intel Macbook 13. In my experience the battery life is wayyyy worse with Chrome. I don't even use the browser that much. Most of the time it is open in the background with 10-12 tabs.

With Chrome, I was running out of juice in 2-3 hours. With Safari it is easily 5-6 hours before I need to reach for the charger.
“Much as I would like to be able to find routes that take advantage of my local bike lanes, I still have to turn to Google Maps for that.”

Bezos owns WaPo, not Amazon.

No, it's more about integration into society. If Bitcoin went away, the economy would not repeat the great financial crisis of 2007-8. It's still largely speculation at this point.

Consider the US is passing 2 bills which total more than that this year alone.

Consider there are several companies that are worth more than Bitcoin independently.

Consider crypto has been primarily used for speculative investing in "printed money".

Consider the wealth concentration is greater in cryptos.
Given how much the US spends on weapons, I think accusing Putin on being obsessed with toy weapons is kind of rich.
Don't batteries degrade faster the faster you charge them?
This isn't really targeted for small devices - its very very applicable with large computers in datacenters (id argue those machines will benefit even more from this). Any time you wait on I/O you potentially park an entire thread when you could be multiplexing your threads. This is a net win for almost all users of threads (except perhaps 100% cpu intensive tasks)

Additionally, your demonstration is incorrect, with the same argument you can also write P = I×V = V²/R and conclude that you don't want to increase voltage.
Right around the start of the epidemic, my state (US, not California) banned plastic bags. In the early part of it, the ban was relaxed, probably because it was felt that plastic bags might be more sanitary. But then they disappeared again.

So I've gotten used to reusing the paper bags, which now cost a few cents.

It's funny that you're still using plastic bags.
Too bad the victims are not around to defend their actions and give the jury the full picture.
I believe it's against the hackernews rules to accuse people of trolling. I'm not trolling either way though.

Perhaps if, as you say, you don't know anything about the case, you should stop sharing your opinion on it. You are misstating matters of fact and being misleading. To me, when you say you don't know anything about the case and then share the tiny detail you do know, it comes across as someone selectively presenting an argument while giving themselves license to mislead - because you "don't know" about any contrary evidence.

You say that Rittenhouse traveled "waaay out of his way" and "in from out of town". In fact, Rittenhouse worked in Kenosha, his father lived there, and Kyle lived nearby, twenty minutes away, with his mother. This isn't "out of town" or out of his way, it's his local community.

You wrote that Rittenhouse has a "history of wanting to shoot shoplifters". Actually, there was a single video where only a voice was heard saying this (Rittenhouse was not on screen) and the prosecution said the voice belonged to Rittenhouse. The prosecutor was not able to explain where the video came from. The anonymous video without the defendant on it and no reason to believe the prosecutor's hunch that the voice was Rittenhouse's wasn't allowed at trial. You can understand, perhaps, why "I'm not following the case" comes across to me more as a rhetorical trick than the truth when one of the random factoids you do know is a denied prosecutor's motion to add evidence at trial. Oh, but because you "aren't following the case" you didn't know it wasn't sourced, no evidence it's Rittenhouse on the tape, and it wasn't admissable at trial.
> I'm also not a fan of arguments that make claims without any proof.

I'm with you but in this case the Pentagon hid the results of its first independent audit. There is no proof, but the fact they changed the rules to hide the results of the audit says all I need to know. If the pentagon wants to prove me wrong I'm all for it. Release the results and prove me wrong.

I won't hold my breath.
That would have taken longer.
I think that's a fair question, but if we're going to power vehicles as they go down the road, doing it from above is a better solution.

But the most straightforward answer of why those ideas haven't caught on is because we have a whole lot of existing road infrastructure that we struggle to maintain now. The infrastructure required to charge battery vehicles is tiny in comparison, and on top of that, private industry will fund much of it.

From when I last tried it, Outline lacks any of the database/datatable functionality of Notion, but Appflowy seems to already have much of this functionality built in (or at least something like it is visible in one of the screenshots shown). Furthermore, logins in both the self-hosted and cloud versions of Outline require logging in with third party providers, no local accounts, so it can never be fully self-hosted.
> So most governments, even the American ones, give grants and support to new companies to prop them up

To what grants, specifically, are you referring? As someone who is active in the business formation space in the U.S., I’d absolutely love to get some free capital.

Humans have been giving birth since the very beginning. The phenomenon of insisting companies fund child birth is a brand new idea. As in, only the last 30 or so years. Societies have arisen and persisted since long, long before then. How is it that all of humanity managed this long without paid family leave?
Every once in a while I do run into a pump that slow. In fact, it happened to me this morning. It was irritating, but tolerable.
That sounds very complicated. You have to design it for various ground clearances, it would be more expensive to install and maintain. You limit other uses for the ground space with whatever rails or guides that would be needed. Or, if it’s smart and uses vision or similar tech to align with the connectors, then more expense and maintenance.

On the car itself those contacts would need to be protected from road hazards. So more expense on that end to have a motorized cover the driver has to operate.

People know how to use plugs. They’re cheap and familiar. And if standards change, adapters are easier to build.

This is cool, though: https://youtu.be/octvXMaTG44

How do you find FreeBSD as a desktop operating system? I’m using FreeBSD on my home server and I love it, but I expect that whatever problems Linux on the desktop has will be 10x worse under a more obscure operating system. Though I’d also expect (rightly or wrongly) that FreeBSD would be easier to customise.

So it’s something I’d like to tool around with at some point. Do you recommend it? Do you use any of the Linux emulation stuff to run Linux apps?
It must have really sucked for the author to write this out knowing they were about to get absolutely roasted.

Pretty big screw up.
It appears to me they left a lot of the real time processing in house, and the pub / sub to web clients and processing of that data to GCP where I'm guessing the rest of their web delivery stack is. I think they're wise to keep the real time processing in house (eg: kafka streams, etc)
i dont see how that has a single one of the virtues i talked about??? you're back to craning your neck over to stare down down down into a screen. terrible form factor, looks like trash, worse than the despiseable laptop.

you've got to decouple the screen & the keyboard. eyes should not be looking down near where hands are.
I think you’re being hung up on the literal meaning of the words a little bit. It seems reasonable to have more severe consequences for someone attacking someone else with a rock compared to somebody just using their fists. We decided to call the former “assault with a deadly weapon”. This doesn’t mean that a rock is a “deadly weapon” under all circumstances. You can’t get charged with “possession of a deadly weapon” for simply walking around with a rock without intent of hurting anyone.
"In that case you could create a backend endpoint that accepts a request and makes the call with the API key on behalf of the client/front-end"

This is what is happening, except instead of a backend endpoint hosted on my own VPS, I'm using a Cloudflare worker.

"The title of the article says OAuth, and hence assumed that you wanted an authenticated client to be able to make the call to the backend for subscribing."

An authenticated client is necessary in order to retrieve the email of the client.
It's been 4-5 years since i last used it.

I remember feeling like it was a full time job - always some issue or inconvenience. Struggled with basic multimedia stuff and of course the biggest issue, almost no apps.

Delta is open source, but Databricks keeps optimizations for themselves as proprietary.

Yes, the Symbolics 3600. In the later models, Symbolics apparently got their hardware act together, but I never used any of those. There was a period in early workstations where we had one or two of everything, and finally settled on Sun workstations. The early 1980s were a time of great hardware creativity, and many dead ends.

Well ROCm and HIP are "open" and run on AMD and Nvidia GPUs. I'm sure AMD would've been happy for Intel to build on that. But they didn't.

"oneAPI is a cross-industry, open, standards-based unified programming model..." I'm sure they'd be happy for AMD to build on that. But they won't.

I think they'll both push their own APIs as the portable standard, but they can't rely on their competitors to contribute. Intel has much more developer grunt and a much more confident start, though they're a latecomer to GPUs.
