> Why is this a "lack of ability" rather than a lack of political will?

Even in countries that are massively pushing for nuclear energy and where the utilities are sometimes outright government-owned, like in France, Finland or the UK, nuclear reactor projects have continuously hit massive cost and deadline overruns: Finland's Olkiluoto 3 had 12 years delay and ended up costing over three times as expected, French Flamanville will end up at over six times the estimated budget and at least eight years delay, and UK's Hinkley Point can't even be reliably estimated.

The only ones being able to build out plants is China, and for what it's worth I think they will manage to blow up at least one of them due to shoddy construction.

I'm with you on this, as I find on-the-spot recall pretty hard too, especially depending on my mental state. I've just started doing a career retrospective before every job hunt, with an eye towards extracting communicable takeaways that can be communicated in interviews. It's actually a very useful exercise, excluding the part where I have to find a way to articulate the takeaways.

But I've found that, surprisingly, getting decent coverage of the stuff I learned from my job makes it a lot easier to answer arbitrary recall questions
The fact that its not a great situation aside, the concept of an engineer making ~300k plus a year having to setup a little office Harry Potter style on the floor under the stairs is pretty funny in a "its so egregious its funny" way. Imagine hiring people, paying them a ton of money and then saying everyone has to come into the office due to the CEO's arrogance but having zero infrastructure setup to handle these people. So millionaires (not that any income level should have to endure this) are working under the stairs or in the lobby to appease the God King. Its pretty bad and pretty amusing too.

That’s what I’m wondering too. They don’t really gain a lot from the move. But if let’s say 5% of higher end bike owners have a Karoo computer and would avoid Shimano in the future due to incompatibility, then it seems like a loss in market size to me. It’s also not like Shimano could compensate it by selling their own bike computer - because they don’t have one.

That's true. There are many nuclear stations that are more than 40 years old. PG&E announced in 2016 they weren't renewing the operating license because California has put emphasis on renewables and if the nuclear power station isn't guaranteed to provide base load then it's too expensive to operate. Otherwise there shouldn't be an issue of running the station until 2035 or 2045. I'm not a resident of California so I don't know the state politics and what all is driving this decision.

> the only conclusion would be that Elon is the force of evil and a reincarnation of satan.

Speaking of one sided... I'd argue there are many more nuanced conclusions you could derive.

I'm sure there have been comments towards him that are ad-hominem accusations of "evil", but in general and this thread specifically I think it's his virtue signaling around "free-speech" and "innovation" rightfully being called out for what they are; self-serving and quite vanilla capitalist maneuvering.

Setting up straw-man arguments like you've done is the same kind of defensive, fallacious reasoning his aforementioned zealous followers engage in.

Like Rick & Morty and Jesus, the worst thing about Elon tends to be his fans.
I'm sure it works fine now, and I don't doubt that it was fine in your case, but it was a huge inconvenience for me and the maintainers were pretty unhelpful about it when people complained. It literally took 9 months for a feature to be added that allowed changing the marketplace a user wanted without it being overwritten by updates.

https://github.com/VSCodium/vscodium/issues/418

The correct way to do this would have been to start with a way to persistently change the marketplace URL being used and having the change be opt-in, then having a major version release when the default value was changed, including obvious instructions about how to change the desired marketplace.

Instead, people were told to do the work themselves of porting over the extensions they wanted. That's a great way to get people who don't have the time or interest in that to just abandon the project altogether.

Even if it is fine now, I just don't want a tool I use for my daily work to be one that could break from an auto-update because the maintainers decided to make some massive change without consideration for the users.
They do it because it's more economical in the short term to do it, and our economic system values short term metrics more than long term.

On top of that, our governments are full of cowards who won't create policies that make it more expensive to destroy the planet than to save it.

Object mutating assignments are checked for old -> new direction and handled in one of two ways, let's call them A and B.

Under method A, when a old -> new assignment takes place, the new object is added to a "check" array. At the same time, its generation is changed from 0 to -1, so that this is wastefully not done twice. Objects in the check array are processed during the mark phase; they are marked as reachable (and that will promote them to the mature generation).

Under method B, the new object is not involved. An old object has been mutated and we record it in a "mutated" array. (So that this isn't done twice for the same object, we also change its generation to -1; that gets fixed back during GC.) The "mutated" array is subject to marking in the mark phase (even though mature objects are not), in order that we chase the references from that object to any new object. These (necessarily considered reachable) objects are also processed in the sweep phase to return them to gen 1.

When might you use method B? Say there is a bulk assignment operation, like hundreds of elements of a vector object are set to values, some of which may be new objects. In that situation, it's more efficient to put the aggregate object into the mutated array and not deal with any information about the right hand side objects at all.

What do you mean by "political failures"? All polls show him as the most popular Mexican president of the last decades, even facing strong opposition from the 1% and the mainstream media. I am sure he is not perfect and has made mistakes, but much less than the others.
He's been massively donating more to the GOP than the Democrats since before Trump. About the only thing that espouses a liberal viewpoint is his view on legalization of weed (but don't smoke it if you work for his companies, unless you're him).

In such use case, the comparison should maybe be against large transport helicopters.
> The purpose of these behavioral questions is to get you to produce details about how you actually act at work in challenging circumstances.

I think the idea is not that these are low-signal, but that the _recall_ of stories like these is not a given. I think the whiteboard example is apt, as both are nonzero-signal exercises that can be torpedoed by a lack of preparation that has nothing to do with your actual problem-solving ability.

It's universally-known that you need to practice for whiteboard-style coding questions, but I guess it hasn't yet seeped into our cultural knowledge that you need to do the same for behavioral-style questions. I'm currently in the middle of a jobhunt and I feel like I just independently discovered it.

Endotoxins, mostly Lipopolysaccharide released by bacteria as they die, appear to be broken down by UV treatment. So including a UV lamp after your air filtration system may mitigate this. Another option would be to use water to filter your air, like a giant bong, allowing you to dispose of the water as it gets dirty. Lastly endotoxins can be baked out at 250-300 deg C, so a carbon filtration system could be periodically baked out to be reused. I doubt any plastic fiber hepa filter could withstand such temperatures.

WSL mostly did it for me. I can go from playing games on the platform that’s received the most attention (which is nice when a Linux port is broken or for some reason doesn’t play nice with proton) to programming and hacking in a familiar environment.

The exception is when I’m screwing with Linux specific hardware, as WSL doesn’t have USB or PCIe pass through afaik.

> Something as minor as changing what user handle is displayed was probably hand waved away, if it was even considered, yet here in this thread we have a demonstrable case of a user losing trust and confidence in the project simply as a result of this decision.

If displaying the same "author" data resulted in users assuming that a given username on the Open VSX site should be trusted just because it happened to match a username on the VS Code Marketplace, it's probably a good thing that Open VSX displays the name differently. These are two different sites, and two different accounts; trust in one should not imply trust in the other. It would be even better if Open VSX could somehow ensure that the displayed author names never match the corresponding projects on VS Code Marketplace, for example by integrating a domain name or other globally-unique component into the author field.
The root comment literally explains that that's BS.

I'm not sure if you understand what safe means in this context. One common example is modifying a vector element by reference. If you grab a reference to an item, push something else to the vector, then try to access through that reference, the vector may have re allocated during the push and you're either no longer looking at valid memory because it's been freed, or you're looking at a stale copy of the element.

I don't think the null handling in rust is about memory safety so much as it is their choice in error handling. If you come across a null pointer dereference and your code doesn't handle it, that's a hidden bug. Triggering an exception and handling it is a valid approach, but there are trade-offs. If no code handles the nil exception for example then it's no better than crashing as you would in C. Wrapping things up in try catch can lead to missing recoverable errors or unexpected states. The choice to disallow null is one to avoid common bugs, not one for memory safety, as far as I understand it.
I think you’re off in your analogy. Parent comment is closer to the 0-60 time because of the responsiveness, and you’re referring to time to move a 1000 lbs mass to 60. When I see “responsive” in terms of cooking and gas, I think of wok cooking (mentioned in the article too) where 100k BTUs are needed for a few seconds at a time to combust atomized oil droplets flipped over the edge of the wok. Combusting that oil properly leaves behind the a small amount of highly flavorful residue that sets apart the best bbq and wok fired dishes.

You can’t get this with a stove that only heats the cooking vessel, even if it has the ability to boil water faster than the same gas stove.
Um. Dude. That's a non-randomly sampled anecdote that says nothing about average repair times. It is quite literally worse than useless.
I remember reading some studies and IIRC it turned out that overall power usage including energy transfer efficiency and grid leakage for gas stoves and induction was about the same.

One other issue with gas stoves which I believe some California gov agency recently discovered is that even when you're not using them they may contribute to methane gas leakage.
You don't get SWATed for owning a child porn domain. SWAT teams only break down your door if you might have a weapon and be violent with it.

They're also less trigger happy if they don't suspect you of having a weapon.
Milsim flame wars can get pretty brutal, this happens semi-regularly and developers have to harshly police their forums for it.

To me it seems like there are 3 things at play.

1) Political incongruency.

2) Character flaws.

3) Actions and actual impact.

These 3 things mix together in a toxic cocktail of hate (or love) depending on which side of the table you’re on. The sides of the table are primarily determined by 1) and the 2) and 3) are glued together to fit the narrative.

I am expecting more from HN tbh.

Absolutely understood, no worries there. I think both my sibling and I were more concerned with his blanket statement approach and how the way they wrote it is quite offensive, especially if a good engineer reads it. I hope my 'returning the favor' could make them see that as I'm sure they are one of the good ones and wouldn't like to be described that way either. I have met both product people for which that description would fit perfectly though and ones that were awesome and actually knew their product well and could balance everyone's needs and coax the real needs out of stakeholders and users. And lots in between.
> The argument doesn't need to explain exactly what understanding means. We all (sort of) know what it means.

Then what does "understanding" a language mean? Your "asking for a glass of water on the street" example implies to me that you demand a system with:
a) capability for internal intent
b) ability to express intent in target language
to grant it "understanding".

Basically, first you deliberately construct a system not capable of intent (pure stateless query-response algorithm), then you deny that it "understands" Chinese on the basis of being unable to express intent. That does not hold.

Give me a precise definition for what you mean by "understanding" and I'll dismantle the Chinese Room for you.

It's the First Amendment. The USPS can't refuse to deliver a postcard because they don't like what it says, for example. If the government ran a user-generated content platform (which they shouldn't, and probably never will) they would be bound by the same requirements.
Yes, it's a situation with the far right riding the up-winds of economic growth whose foundations were largely put in place by previous center-left governments, and supercharging themselves with nativist/nationalist politics that victimizes their own minority populations.
If you think that all I have is one anecdotal story because that's all I've shared in a single post on an interweb forum, then you're making gross assumptions on your part.

If a patrol officer is tasked to pull over someone by an investigating detective, their sergeant, or anyone else out ranking them, that's what they are going to do. They all have ranks and respond to higher authority. It's part of their job.
