No, a board is mandated to act in the best interests of the shareholders. That might be different than just maximizing the share price. They may believe this is a bad idea for the company as a whole, and that long term, it's objectively better for the company to not be owned by Musk.
Ask HN: Are AI language models making search engines unusable for you too?
It's getting really, really hard to Google anything at all. Even asking a question like "What is the best way to crack eggs?" or "How do I clean soap scum off of a shower" now yield what appear to be endless GPTX created spam pages of questions and then answers. When I query things in my own domain of knowledge, many of the responses to the questions are outright wrong. Will AI language models more or less end search engines?

no. that just shows your stderr, not stdout if it failed. and you get stderr even if it doesn't fail.

sed --in-place has one file as both input and output. It's not really different from any pipe of commands where the input and output files are the same. But sed also makes a copy of the file before overwriting it - per default.

True, but the GP's phrasing of "equate dollar values" implies a sort of cut and dried interpretation. A mechanical calculation of a short-term price snapshot is not the only thing that matters. If the board has good reason to believe that Musk will be bad for the stock price in the long-term then there wouldn't be any breach of fiduciary duty.
If you have deadlines and can't afford being "bad" at something for a while then, yes, learning new technologies or ecosystems might not be a wise choice. I think that's independent of what those technologies are.

I switched to the JVM because I was annoyed enough at the things I had to deal with in Ruby that learning how to do things in a new way was worth it for me in the long run.

> I suppose I would have had a much better time and stayed in C-land (and gotten much better performance) if I had tried golang instead of clojure.

But Go is a completely different language than Clojure? By what criterion are you deciding which language to focus on? Mostly I'd think that people who choose Clojure do so because they want to use a homoiconic, dynamically typed, functional programming language and not something that looks a lot like a cleaned-up C.
Looks like a very selective view of the Yom Kippur war given what has happened on the Syrian front and the subsequent development of Israel's own MBT. Can you please share some references to "caused lot of people to predict the imminent death of the MBT 50 years ago" ?

To be honest, I don't really understand Ruby either. It's like combination of performance of Python, compatibility of C, transparency of any mystery dependency + build system and yet another syntax on top of it.
> Nobody actually pays attention to open source software licences whatever you write in them. They're just window dressing.

Plainly untrue. Various companies (including Google and Apple) have strong opinions on the GPL licences, especially the GPLv3.

Many of us see it as a red flag when a seemingly Free and Open Source project turns out to use a licence approved by neither the FSF nor the OSI.

You may be right that much web frontend development is a sloppy free-for-all with no regard for compliance and no contact with the legal department, but not all software is developed on this basis.

What ? Even if you're a long time investor, having an instant 25% guaranteed profit is good as you can sell part of the stock and diversify.
At least in Delaware law, a board's fiduciary duty involves a duty of care, loyalty, and good faith. While acting to maximize their personal interests or egregiously working against profits could be considered a breach, not trying to maximally make profits probably wouldn't be.

All of this would need to be litigated on a case-by-case basis, but many modern cases have found that companies can freely act to maximize the wages of their employees at the expense of dividends or act charitably even when there aren't tax breaks.

That said, I'm not sure this really even applies in the case of Twitter---I think its not unreasonable to argue that the innate value of Twitter is so much higher than what Musk is offering that its better for the shareholders to wait even thinking purely in terms of profits (I would probably personally disagree with that, but I don't think its any more unreasonable than plenty of other valuations I see)
Sorry to beat a dead horse, but please use "copyright infringement" or "unauthorized copying" instead of "piracy". Actual pirates commit or threaten physical violence, so this meaning-slippage is just propaganda.

It's amazing how much collateral damage is caused by our horrible copyright laws. Mostly just so the MPA/RIAA can protect their roles as gatekeepers of what we're allowed to see and hear.

They can put enormous pressure on even the wealthiest and most powerful companies to act as copyright police on their behalf. Even Google is afraid of them. ISPs are forced to spend huge amounts of time and money working for them. Now duckduckgo is being strong armed into doing a bunch of free work for them too? Maintaining lists of websites and domains to block and removing links to even non-infringing material like youtube-dl just to keep from being sued into the ground.

I don't know what it'll take to rein in these guys, but I doubt the courts will be the ones to do it. So far courts seem fine with the idea that ISPs must permanently ban users from their service over nothing but repeated unsubstantiated claims of infringements which is an insane amount of power to give any industry.

Has any US politician ever run on a platform that includes copyright reform?
Thanks for taking the time to help me understand the data.

Looking at the graphs, isn't the implication that the distance between the two lines is the metric of interest? In other words, that the distance between real/perceived scores in Q1 & Q2 is "grossly" wider than the distance between Q3 & Q4, with the noted exception that only Q4 underestimates?
Ours used it - although maybe not the brand named one. Our entire school (~100 years old) was made of a combination of brick and cinder blocks (that were painted on the inside) so no real good surfaces to mount anything using nails and scotch tape didn't stick too well. Blu Tack everywhere (we even called it that).
'Poison Pill' strategy is something that happens.

One of Java's weaknesses is that they _didn't_ move to everything is an object. Instead we still have all the primitive types (except unsigned, but that's another topic!) and they autobox to and from their object wrappers. I'm assuming moving to objects was considered and discarded for performance reasons. Now I guess we're getting inline classes soon? Which will solve the performance problem, but only decades later.
I'm leading our docs effort, and work on a much expanded version of the official book is in progress (and should be launched for 0.8).

These are absolutely reasonable concerns, and a centralized, first-part introduction to the core concepts is essential.
This is terrific, and resonates strongly. Pretty much only thing I'd perhaps slightly modify is that 5 to 1 deal; why this may not resonate with others is that you can come into it with a high or low threshold for this sort of thing based on lots of factors -- how you grew up yourself and certain social pressures may make you more sensitive to (or resilient to?) certain types of negativity. Point is, YMMV on that ratio.

> The article shows a piece of code that makes that promise and then doesn't hold up its part of the agreement.

Edit: disregard; I now see your other comments.

Incorrect. The article shows a piece of code that makes and fulfills that promise, and then the optimization passes break the code. If you disagree, I would be interested in hearing how/where you think the code itself is faulty.
I think it's more in terms of the ergonomics and developer UX. Both Bevy and Flask have a very minimal and surprisingly idiomatic "hello world" example, and both rather seamlessly and progressively introduce concepts, which helps onboard developers into the framework/engine.

In Bevy's case, it also helps onboard the developer into engine development too, since engine code is entirely ECS based, so engine code looks nearly identical to both user and plugin code. For your typical user, this is a bit odd, but speaking as someone who went from new to the engine to helping write the headliner features for this release in the course of just a few months, this is a surprisingly empowering experience.
I won’t get drawn in to free speech / whatever argument.

The tool offers a cheap shortcut to a positive health outcome. The alternatives could be medication, or a guided practice - both of which require financial and time commitments. Why would you dismiss it on some ideological grounds?
> it could definitely happen anywhere.

It does happen everywhere. European countries in NATO have been responsible for more deaths than the russians. It's hilarious. People are pretending ukraine is the only war that ever existed. Ukraine is the tamest ongoing war right now. The least civilian deaths of any serious war since the turn of the century.

> Made me think about how the allies made Germans face the atrocities that they where in denial about after the war, making them go to the camps, dig the graves, watch the footage

That is literally post-war indoctrination/propaganda. Had the germans won ww2, they would have made the british, americans, russians, etc confront their own war crimes.
I dunno, in my experience even something as simple as a tiny syntax error can already get you into pretty deep and inscrutable stack traces.

The Kuru Toga is so versatile, I have three with different lead.

Theoretically, we could build a plugin that does all automatic setup like COC, but then uses the built-in LSP to do the actual work. nvim-lspconfig already does part of this job - configuring the LSP, as long as the server is already installed. Personally, I prefer the system package manager taking care of the servers, rather than yet another package maintenance system.
As someone who just started using nvim, and assumed that vim was identical (or close enough to it that it can just be considered identical), what are these edge cases/differences?

This is something Jordan Peterson talks about often and he's done quite a bit of research on.

I know (I would say) that I wouldn't become a Nazi, but only because I'm aware of how easy it is. But something similar I can't recognize?

The best approach is probably to stay humble and assume you can't tell the difference between good and bad.
I'm sorry that sort of argument makes no sense. Anything could happen in the future, but the price today is what the market judges it to be worth.

The historical price is irrelevant as well. Looking at the historical price is the same sort of thinking that leads to "throwing good money after bad".
Overestimating vs underestimating their ability has less to do with whether their estimates are correlated and more to do with the average estimation.

If estimates of ability were a truly random sample with mean of 75th percentile ability, then the net effect will be vast overestimation. If they're a truly random sample with mean at 50th percentile, it will be equal. At 25th, underestimation.

It's like how 90% of people estimate that they're in the top 50% of drivers by ability.

>There's nothing about the fact that psychedelic researchers are excited about psychedelics that by itself is suspicious, as we are strongly being led to believe.

It's also quite possible that they are excited about the potential to try a different method of reducing the suffering of patients with mental illness with more efficacy, or fewer side effects, or some other positive change. Anybody can be excited about something while doing another thing. Presumably at least some of these people wish to provide aid, um, when they are not reeling from acid, and grooving on E's, or apparently, assaulting patients, based on the article.

By the way, how does he know they use the drugs? He said some guy said he knew a lot of people who did. A valid concern with mental health is the difficulty of evaluating statements people make about their, or other peoples internal states, and for what reason they make such statements. Basically he's saying, "They're addicts! Some dude told me!"

That's literally hearsay, although this is not a court environment, I suppose. Still, I, for one, would prefer a bit more rigorous statement about this endemic drug use among researchers.

As for his example, lots of people don't eat pork, for a variety of reasons. If someone follows their procedure and replicates their results, then does it matter if they were Muslims? Skeptical? Have some bacon and do the experiment, see if you get what they got. Of course you wouldn't just take it on faith, my goodness! Not all, certainly, but some people don't allow their desires to supersede their professionalism. I don't know, are Muslims even that invested in not eating pork as to fake a bunch of studies to fool the masses into not eating back bacon?

Actually, given what we know about the replication crisis.. hmm.

But surely people who take psychedelics have their own subculture, right? Dr. Alice and Dr. Bob might spend long weekends listening to Cream and obviously Black Sabbath, and definitely some jazz, staggering high because they are trying acid to wean them off of the Oxy's they were into 3 years ago, or the boozing they did under quarantine ... but what if they got results that are worth looking into? Anybody who's known someone using psychoactive drugs surely... well the drugs available now sure seem sub-optimal.

( What about their kids? They're trippin with the kids? Really? REALLY? )

You know, I'm quite unsure about this assumption that the researchers need to spread their drug of choice to people claiming ( skepticism about the afflicted seems to be a theme in the comments? I guess they should just snap out of it? ) mental defect to a third party, which is a life changing decision.

I'm not saying that these things are impossible, or inconceivable. Unfortunately. I question the number of people who act like this, while maintaining well enough to author research papers and do Guardian interviews, vs the number of people who are enthusiastic about reducing suffering and are pursuing a surprising and somewhat promising avenue to do so. They would be in a great position if this work led to a better way of treating mental illness. Seems exciting.
That's not exactly true, as Musk's offer is to buy the company outright, making it private (and thus buying out all shareholders), as I understand - so there is no concept of how Musk's ownership would affect the stock price. Still, the board can easily argue "we believe shareholders will be able to achieve higher profits in the future by maintaining their ownership than by selling all stock at Musk's offered price today".
So is quantum uncertainty a feature or a bug?
They claim to have results from over "400 sources" but then don't list them.
> > chronic: runs a command quietly unless it fails
> Isn't that just `command >/dev/null`?

Often times you want to run a command silently (like in a build script), but if it fails with a nonzero exit status, you want to then display not only the stderr but the stdout as well. I’ve written makefile hacks in the past that do this to silence overly-chatty compilers where we don’t really care what it’s outputting unless it fails, in which case we want all the output. It would’ve been nice to have this tool at the time to avoid reinventing it.

Well he wins the most silly names accumulated award from the list.
I guess that chronic doesn't just show stderr, but also stdout if the command fails. If I am not mistaken, your example would hide the stdout output, even when the command fails.
I do but they don't use them either.
A named pipe sounds like a good way to fulfill your requirement of having the command runs on separate shells.. In the first terminal, shove the output of commend A into the named pipe. In the second terminal, have a loop that reads from the named pipe line by line and invokes command B with the appropriate arguments.

You can create a named pipe using "mkfifo", which creates a pipe "file" with the specified name. Then, you can tell your programs to read and write to the pipe the same way you'd tell them to read and write from a normal file. You can use "<" and ">" to redirect stdout/stderr, or you can pass the file name if it's a program that expects a file name.

Elon's offer is not a hostile takeover, it is just that - an offer.
Hey HN - we’d really appreciate any feedback on this one as it’s still in R&D.

One of the bigger questions is with the class name approach. As written in the document, we replace the default class name when the developer provides a string.

Another strategy is to append the developers string to our own. This might be better if our styles are already close and you just want to make a tweak, but it could also be annoying to tear down our styles if you don’t want them (e.g. removing our box-shadow)

We’d also appreciate any examples of embeddable components that you particularly enjoyed working with.

Thanks!

I'm saying that what they did was nazi shit, in alignment with nazi values, towards nazi goals, so I feel good about calling them nazis. Regardless of whether they would have called themselves nazis.

Why do you care so much about party membership? Why the project of establishing a high barrier and technical definition for what a nazi is?

> If you're just messing around with fun side projects, there's nothing wrong with using something you enjoy for no other reason than your own personal enjoyment.

That was my thought too. If it's a side project, I guess you should just always use Python because you will never need anything else. But I already kinda know Python and it doesn't interest me much, so I write my side projects in the flavor of the day that has my fancy at the moment.
Elon's offer is not a hostile offer. He has made an offer, management has not yet rejected it. It is just an offer to purchase the company, as of now.

If the offer is rejected and Elon continues to attempt to gain control of the company, that would be an attempt at a hostile takeover.
