It's an interesting thought exercise to take some belief and ask yourself how you know, and asking until you get to some first principles or axioms or articles of faith. Part of that exercise could include coming up with plausible alternate explanations for what you perceive.

Flat earth is just a ridiculous version of such a thought experiment. It's a good exercise to make sure your understanding of the world around you is based on some consistent logic and not faith. Those who reject the idea of the earth being flat just because "science tells us" have no intellectual high ground over devout flat earthers, if they exist
This is Russia showing that being on good terms with it is useful for the US. It has the power to stop the ransomware problem if it wants to.

The implication being that if the US does too much about Ukraine (meaningful weaponry/sanctions) there won't be cooperation - but that if they do the bare minimum, well, their law enforcement might start mysteriously catching more people.
"To me, the phenomenon of widespread trust in goofy claims is much more interesting than the fact of goofy claims not being real. What does it mean to trust science?"

Science is a system to distinguish between a fact and a shibboleth. That process is at the core of epistemology, and it is always non-trivial, because goofy is in the eye of the beholder. Whatever your politics or religion, you can easily see these shibboleths in other tribes, but they are usually invisible in your own. To apply science to your own tribe's shibboleths is an act of distrust.
Nation states are big and relations between them are absurdly complex. You don't put all collaboration on hold every time a territorial scuffle is happening, especially when nothing explicit has actually happened yet. Just "tension".

About the same time of the last Crusade when heavy European knights couldn't dominate lighter forces anymore.

This is provably false. The US population is fleeing the areas with the most natural greenery, migrating south and west. The south western US is primarily dry desert.

Greenery is nice. Warm weather is also nice. Lack of things like ice storms, fog, black ice, trees falling on power lines, etc., is nice, too.
The thing that made me not trust Google with anything I would miss if it was gone tomorrow is a very simple and probably biased one.

Whenever a Youtube video is removed or made private, it is also plucked from my playlists and my Liked Videos. They recently started hiding the broken videos in lists altogether, but it really doesn't make a difference anymore.

So whenever a video disappears, not only can I not watch it anymore, which is reasonable, but I can't even know what it was that I enjoyed watching without using third party tools. Information just gets plucked from the lists I curated for more than a decade, to the point that a third of the videos is just gone and I have no way of knowing what it is that was taken away, or even that it was taken away at all with the recent change.

I find that to be rather invasive, because I specifically created those lists so I don't have to remember. If I can't trust Google to help me remember cat videos and fail compilations, what can I trust it with?

It seems like such a trivial thing, mundane even, but it highlights to me everything I need to know that the only one who benefits from giving my data to Google, is Google.

>real world distribution of programmer abilities

Way before the arrival of personal computers, it was clear for me to realize that I would be highly disappointed if average programmer abilities declined half as far as they have by now.

Some of the most coherent technical projects are the result of a single individual's outstanding vision.

Occasionally, the project can be brought to completion by that one individual, in ways that simply could not be exceeded alternatively, all the way from from fundamental algorithms through coding to UX and design.

Additional engineers could be considered useful or essential simply to accelerate the completion or launch.

When the second engineer is brought on board, it may be equally performant to have them come fully up to speed on everything the first engineer is doing, compared to having them concentrate on disparate but complementary needs which need to be brought to the table in addition.

If they both remain fully versed, then either one can do anything that comes up. Sometimes they can work on the same thing together when needed, other times doing completely different things to make progress in two areas simultaneously.

You're going to end up with the same product either way, the second engineer just allows an earlier launch date. But truly never within half the calendar time, those man-months are legendarily mythical.

For projects beyond a certain size more engineers are simply essential.

Then ask yourself what kind of team would you rather have?

All engineers who could contribute to any part of the whole enchilada from primordial logic through unexceeded UI/UX?

Or at the opposite end of the spectrum, all engineers who are so specialized that the majority of them have no involvement whatsoever with things like UI/UX?

Assuming you're delivering as satisfactory a product as can be done by the same number of engineers in the same time frame.

You're NOT going to end up with the same product either way.

Now aren't you glad it's a spectrum so it gives you an infinitely greater number of choices other than the optimum?
> This credo is essentially an appeal to authority

Strange, I read it as exactly the opposite. Many times, people who are considered authorities in something, such as academics, have little or no real world experience in the matters that they're giving advice on. For example, why should a business owner take advice from an economist, who has never run a business (or even worked outside of academia), on how to run a business? By asking "what have you experienced that makes you believe what you do?", we can at least establish if someone really knows something or is just an "authority".

Similarly, if I see a book about software development, I'd like to know what significant software the author has delivered. If their expertise is mostly in writing books and making YouTube videos, I don't want to waste my time reading their advice.

Ironically, the author of this article seems to work for a "wealth management group", so we should ask what experience they have that would make them a credible source of advice in psychology or brain function. They write nothing about their own actual experience, only quoting various authorities.

The problem is that if you are bitcasting, say, from a memory buffer coming from a read() call it is very hard for the compiler to prove that bitcasted copy is the only live one, especially across function calls.

For small objects bitcast works just fine because the result end up in registers were you would have loaded the original objects anyway.
> maybe we can do better 40 years later?

But we do. There are plenty of programming languages besides C.

Also, while we're at it, UNIX is now a good 50 years old and if anything it contributes as much to the problem of unsafe software as anything else out there, every driver has the potential to hose the entire system.
I don't believe it is the case that interest rates and house values are strongly correlated. In theory they should be (inversely) correlated, but in practice, they have not been. Even the article you link to says:

"As you can see there are some points where it appears interest rates may have correlated with a price drop, like in the late 2000s. Those of us who were in real estate at the time know there were many other issues as well. Lending was horrible, there was record new building and tons of foreclosures, basically the opposite of what is happening now. I think most people in the industry would say increasing interest rates were not the main factor that caused the crash.

I think the more telling sign is from the 1980s and 1970s where interest rates rose to astronomical highs! The prime rates were more than 20% at one time. It is important to know that the first graph is not what mortgage rates were. Mortgage rates that people get on their houses are not directly tied to the prime rate. The chart below shows what mortgage rates were."

I will answer 'Yes' to this the moment we have a viable mainstream OS written in Rust. There are people working towards this so with some luck we will be able to see what the brave new world of a whole system running production software built in Rust looks like.

The approach fails miserably when taken in aggregate. I would read five to ten papers from my own field a week while in grad school. If I had to do the analysis for myself as well there wouldn't be any time to do my own research.

Add on twenty more papers a week from adjacent fields where I don't even know all the techniques and the magnitude of the problem hopefully becomes clearer.
The "science" derived from ultra-skewed samples collected by grad students or even tenured academics for social scenario experimentation is inherently shaky and does not merit much trust.

Q: How do I make a link in a text submission?

A: You can't. This is to prevent people from submitting a link with their comments in a privileged position at the top of the page. If you want to submit a link with comments, just submit it, then add a regular comment.

The difference with Show HNs is that when it's the project creator sharing their own work, it's ok for their link and text to be in a privileged position. Hopefully people won't start abusing that, but if they do, we can roll back the change.

Exactly. Believing in narrated science is no different than believing the mumbo jumbo they throw at you in scifi movies. For me the halting problem seems like common sense / basic science but it’s not for everybody. That’s where we need to recognise that what’s obvious or basic to us isn’t so for others. And that is a good thing!

What you're missing is the difference between known issues and unknown issues. You're looking at a language that's been heavily used for 60 years and accumulated a long list of known issues and things not to do, that powers pretty much everything in computers, and you're comparing that with the new kid on the block with a vocal fanbase.

You could invest your time into learning that finite list, or you could invest your time into learning a new language with a long list of _unknown_ issues yet to be discovered - but out of sight, out of mind, right?

As far as runtime speed goes, assuming equal instructions being generated, if Rust spends even one CPU cycle checking array lengths, its generated code will be slower than C's, by definition. You can justify the trade-off ("it checks array lengths for me because I am human and I forget sometimes") or relax the restrictions ("it's not humanly noticeable"), but you can't claim it runs faster or even just as fast, because it's not.

The only thing Rust proved to me is that there was a whole generation of developers who did't mind writing unreadable Perl code who had kids that are equally unaware of how unreadable Rust code is and it'll take a few decades for them to see that, assuming that Rust stays relevant for another decade.
Not really. For a long time C was a perfectly legitimate choice. The 'wrongs' of C have only really come to light with widespread usage of the Internet and the much higher focus on security. Back in the day people working with computers weren't necessarily doing so to make a quick buck, hose your system or to try to see if they could do damage. The bulk of the people working with computers was trying hard to produce something useful instead of to deconstruct that which was already there in a malicious way.

The parasites came long after C.

In the context of ironmanning the position the framing is very different:

Party A: the firemen.
Party B: the city.

A want to stop providing a service for B. B want A to keep providing the service. On all precedents, laws, and common sense they are allowed to do so. B claims that this will do irreparable damage to life/property/society and ask a judge to mediate the conflict and also to make B keep proving the service while the conflict is being mediated.

In this specific case a fireman could not simply walk off the job in the middle of suppressing a fire, the city position is that firemen are always a critical infrastructure and either the firemen claim that the city is at fault for some reason or they guarantee continuity of the service they where providing.
Fry's was the closest thing we had, and it was thinly spread at the best of times (particularly outside of California). It didn't really even make it into the pandemic; I remember walking into the Downers Grove, IL store in the Christmas 2019 season and feeling strange at how few cars there were in the parking lot. I walked in, and was shocked at the state of what was an obviously failing store that gave me the willies. I half-expected to run into zombies. Looking back, I'd have to call it a portent of 2020.

Between the implosion of Fry's, and Radio Shack not quite lasting long enough to capitalize on the maker movement, it's pretty well online ordering or nothing.
