The Chaparral 2J [0] is the one that comes to my mind as most popular, but I wasted years of my life playing GT3/4 on PSX where the 2J was the only thing I had unlocked as ridiculously fast as the turbocharged 787B.

The other thing that was really exceptional about the 2J, at least as simulated in GT4, was how tall the 3-speed automatic gearing was. Between the car seemingly never changing gears, barely varying RPMs despite accelerating like a rocket, and essentially not needing to brake for turns, it just seemed like the epitome of buggy arcade physics. Through a 2022 lens that description sounds apropos to an EV, despite it being a rather old ICE machine.

Tax political involvement?

Social security is not an account you individually pay into and then draw from later, it is a wealth transfer program that taxes presently working individuals to support presently retired individuals.
I'm quite aware of the differences in style. Style of the other person was so hard for me to parse that in order to respond I needed to reformat it into my style. Only then I could construct the response using my translation as reference.

I'm not quite sure that my style comes from the content I consume. I think I acquired it earlier, by doing math problems at school, by learning math in college and by learning programming. In all of those contexts I needed to extract meaningful stuff from all the baroque elements.

So I developed appreciacion for high ratios of important elements to fluff words and for writing that has clear, traceable backbone that has a point.

I think shortness of what I wrote is a result of my preferences not the key factor that shaped them. Best writing advice for clear communication is to write short sentences. Information split in short portions provides natural places to pause to appreciate it and is easily skimmable where you can skip sentences or paragraphs that you already understand to get a grasp of how they fit in the surrounding context.

This is btw not an endorsement of twitter which I personally hate and didn't manage to find a single reasonable use for it since its inception.
We are already seeing a lot of fucked up SEO spam rising to the top these days. IMO it might actually start picking at Google's market share because prior to this the product actually seemed infallible to the average layman.
Oh man, so much this. I had to build that myself and still not 100% what I would like.
You also forgot to mention the terms on which China does that and at whose cost. Also, it's one thing to "just" build something, but a whole other to maintain and service.
Yes, but FF on iOS sucks precisely for the reason stated in the article.
Bushnell suggests the opposite near the top of this interview, that part of a coin-op game was exactly that you did need to let people plop a quarter in and just start playing!

> Nolan Bushnell: A little bit. Remember that Atari was founded as a coin-op company. And coin-op has this requirement that a newbie has to get into the game almost instantly without reading instructions. So the simplicity of onboarding is lost by a lot of people right now.

Which makes sense to me, of COURSE you have to be able to "just start playing" if you wanted to get someone to put a quarter into a machine they hadn't played before!
Circumnavigating the cities would be a reasonable alternative, and the Interstate system has incorporated many such "belt roads" since its inception. In retrospect this would have been a much better option than running them through downtowns.
The "Great Replacement" theory originated in the 2010s and is specifically about white people being replaced (in case anyone was in any doubt, it's racist bullshit).

It's a (bullshit paranoid) predictive theory about the modern day that has nothing to do with the historical genocide of Native Americans by white people.
If they’re going to look at covid they should look at sars and mers as well as they’re related. More damaging, less contagious.
thought: reading this style of sentence would get annoying quickly.

I don't get the point of these TBH. The usefulness of conventional commits is that they can be easily aggregated to get an idea of the types of changes that were made.

Code review comments are purely meant for human communication, so requiring a specific structure is both annoying to write and to read.

I tend to use one, at most two prefixes. "Nit", and rarely "blocker". Though I'd rather specify if something is a blocker once I make my case about what needs to be changed.

Every other comment is assumed to be a suggestion, and depending or not I block the PR by "requesting changes", it's up to the author to either accept my suggestion or provide reasons not to.

Any other strict guideline about how to write prose is silly to me. Especially the decorations section. C'mon now.
> that support what you already believe

More likely, the echo chamber algorithm wants to show you what will trigger you the most, so you'd contribute as much of your energy as possible in response. I believe that somewhere in the dungeons these companies keep user profiles with red-blue response maps: areas with red mean that the user will be outraged with this statement, and areas with blue mean something that the user agrees with religiously. By skillfully matching these red-blue maps with each other, the algorithm creates an angry echo chamber.

Yes, while that is true, TS errors can sometimes be really clunky. And sans a debugger, it is not uncommon for me to be spending stretches of 20-30 mins almost every week trying to unravel complex type errors that span multiple pages. I recently traced a very weird error to TS changing what keyof never evaluates to in a minor version.

So yeah, using discriminated unions, branded types, mapped types etc. in moderation can substantially reduce the surface area of errors - more so than other mainstream nominally typed languages. However, trying to model and prevent every invalid state at type level can lead to a serious drain in productivity. And, I am not really sure how to draw a line between.
Here's the thing that irks me about things like "standing up k8s in a couple hours": It's something that only gets done a few times for an entire project - once or twice in dev and test, then again in prod. Not even a few times a year - a few times per project/code stack.

The actual work will be "tweak this to have six side cars instead of five", or "set it to spin up a few more nodes", or maybe even "upgrade k8s from version X to version Y without downtime, test your solution on dev first". There has to be some way to test that.

Instead they give you "Bring up a vpc, resources with terraform or cloud formation, spin up k8s, program a webapp that tells me my IP in a container, set up a build system to package it, configure Route 53, then make it all run." - all in three hours.

I don't write scripts or even yaml from scratch that fast. I don't know anyone who does. Most people copy/paste old projects or stuff off of StackOverflow and then mangle it to try to do these silly things.
Similar to CDOs in 2008 the risk of staked Eth was not well understood.
> We humans use bioreactors or traditional fermentation cats to have bacteria do the job.

OK, same line of reasoning as above, I guess. Answer me this question please: how did we get the B12 we needed to stay helahty before we knew about B12, or any other vitamin, or were capable of creating in bioreactors?
Yes the weird thing is that on mobile it actually mentions Firefox as a supported browser, it just says you must have the latest version. Which I do but it still won't work.

On desktop it doesn't even list Firefox as an option at all.. It's pretty annoying for me because I use that portal a lot for work and I use FF on everything. Safari is not an option for me because I use Mac, FreeBSD, Windows, Linux, Android all mixed and I need the sync.

And yeah I think they're just blocking the agent. I haven't tried bypassing it. I kinda was afraid something would go wrong (I don't want to wipe 10.000 iPhones from the portal instead of 1 - lol)
There are so many additional factors affecting fertility that it’s not even funny.

How about making a map of countries with free/subsidized childcare and comparing it to that fertility map? I’m pretty sure you’d find nearly the same correlation as with “not living with your parents”.
> increases it’s overhead by almost 100%.

3.8/2.9 kB is a 31% increase.

1.16/0.62 s is an 87% increase.

But okay, let's round up to 100%.

The article is citing a page that counter-argues this:

> Sites with modern servers load faster over HTTPS than over HTTP because of HTTP/2.

> But what about sites like https://doesmysiteneedhttps.com? While this website makes a few valid points, it still relies heavily on “fear tactics” that honestly don’t apply for the vast majority of users. It’s overkill.

Sorry, but not good enough.

1. "a few valid points": you avoid making your visitors liable in oppressive environments (employers, regimes), you avoid very real content injection (commercial or malicious), and you give the visitor a way to know that content wasn't tampered. That's a few valid points. (The rest are counter-arguments.)

2. "fear tactics": not true. Protecting the integrity of your visitors and your content is nurture, not fear.

3. "don’t apply for the vast majority of users": by making HTTPS standard at practically no cost, you make it work for those for whom it matters. Just because I feel safe on Hacker News doesn't mean that any visitor who goes here will be treated fairly by reading my message.
NIMBYs get taken seriously because the secondary and tertiary effects of their NIMBYism aligns with the dominant ideology of the state post-Civil-Rights-era.

John D. Rockefeller Ⅲ sez: "We have all heard[citation needed] about a population problem in the developing nations of Asia, Africa, and Latin America, where death rates have dropped rapidly and populations have exploded. Only recently have we recognized that the United States may have population problems of its own. There are differing views. Some say[who?] that it is a problem of crisis proportions — that the growth of population is responsible for pollution of our air and water, depletion of our natural resources, and a broad array of social ills.[SUBTLE]"

Most resumes I see have both a skills section and some sort of work history section. You can keep advertised skills focused while still listing past projects and work if you use a format that makes a similar distinction.
I know, but if you don't believe it's the start of new growth there's no point even trying :)

You may be interested in some of the source books for the Cyberpunk RPG. A lot of the game occurs in Night City, which isn’t exactly Gibson’s but heavily inspired by it. Just about all the books have great narratives to set the tone.
I’m a raw-SQL-no-ORM snob and I really like this. I’d like to see it become more mainstream.
That access form was... refreshing.

Here's why this matters to me, an independent researcher who wants to start publishing again.

In 2008, Ronan Collobert and Jason Weston had published some work that made neural network training of word vector representations really fast. But only ML people read that paper. Yoshua Bengio and Lev-Arie Ratinov and I plugged old-school cluster based as well as fancy-but-uncool-and-icky neural network word representations into a variety of NLP models. It worked awesome. Before "transformers go brrrrrr" our paper told the NLP community, basically, self-supervised learning and neural networks go "brrrrrrr". People finally started paying attention in the language world, ML stopped being treated with suspicion and the field moved rapidly, our paper racked up 2700 cites and an ACL 10 Year "Test Of Time" award, and here we are.

I don't work in a big research lab but I still publish. I pay for my GPUs the old fashioned way. You know, out of pocket.

It took me ages to get access to GPT-3. Ilya was a colleague of mine, so I messaged him fb, but no dice. Why? I know I could pull other strings through my network but, like, really? Is this where we are right now?

All I'm saying is: It's nice to fill out a form asking my intended use and my previously related publications, as a means of gatekeeping. The access process feels more transparent and principled. Or maybe I'm just being grouchy.
I believe these should be illegal, just as it is in F1.

The basic problem with this concept is that if it ever stops working you are now driving way over the limit (not just a tiny bit) of what the car can handle and are unceremoniously thrown out of the track at a dangerous speed.

It becomes basically the contest of who can create more downforce.

The cars resulting from this have very little clearance and very hard suspension. Add a huge, changing downforce and you can imagine how anything failing like a suspension or a tyre can immediately put the driver in danger.

I think allowing this creates unhealthy, dangerous incentive to escalate the downforce until something fails -- the driver due to G-force, some component in the car or an object on the track that causes the car to bump up, etc.
It reminds me of that time the US Air Force designed an "open source jet engine".

https://www.wpafb.af.mil/News/Article-Display/Article/201113...

Their definition of "open source" turned out to be: "the government owns the source IP instead of some defense contractor. No, you can't see it."

In fairness, I'm impressed that they even got that far. How do you think the defense contractor lobbyists responded to that program?
That's the basic argument, which I don't have at hand, but there have been some very specific "improvement in output" moments in history but those are in the long past and most of what we have now over time is basically the same as growth of population in the US.

> C++20 is honestly a pretty good language.

> C++98 was kinda shit in many ways

> And you certainly can't be faulted for going with the far more established and far more widely used C++ over the new upstart Rust.

This cake-and-eat-it approach doesn't work. Either you're choosing C++ 20, and you get modern luxuries like a starts_with() method on strings but your language is so fresh out of the box that your tools don't work properly yet and your compiler vendor fixes swathes of fundamental bugs in core C++ 20 features every release or you're choosing to say well, C++ is really one language, and then ew... this library I'm using thinks raw pointers signify ownership because it was first written in 2008.

Also, although C++ cleaned up lots of things since C++ 98 (for example Bjarne's terrible "look at me, I have operator overloading" I/O Streams is pushed aside by a modern formatting library in C++ 20) the fundamental ethos remains the same - C++ will always pick the wrong defaults. I'm not talking about a couple of unlucky choices, it's impossible to be this unlucky, they must surely be doing it on purpose. Without Vittorio's Epochs, which they very deliberately did not take for C++ 20, they won't be able to fix the defaults.
> Sounds like we have a solution to Epic’s years-long complaint about Apple and Google taking a 15–30 percent cut of in-app transactions. They should follow Epic’s lead and take a 95 percent cut instead. Support a creator, indeed.

Content creators get nothing on Google and Apple's platform. Epic is essentially giving out a 5% referral bonus that no other company in their industry provides. Apples to oranges, anyone?

> Again, 2FA isn't an account recovery process at all; it's a reason you need account recovery.

Your reading of the FTC text seems to be that you think the FTC has conflated account recovery with 2FA, but I don't think that's the case. Instead, my read is that they're suggesting that password breaches can be rendered moot points by requiring 2FA for accounts, so that the compromise of a password would not require an account reset in the first place.

I will say, as someone with an egg allergy it isn't so black and white. Not everywhere carries alternative ways of getting flu vaccine, though hopefully post Covid mRNA versions will become more prevalent (assuming that version has the same impact, haven't read the article).
I'm the opposite. I hate it, but I use it because of ublock origin. I'm of the opinion that all mobile browsers are awful. Because of the lack either privacy, security, or UX. Can't have them all. If I could, I'd continue to use Firefox for Android 68. It had a much better UX including a tablet mode. Now the most recent version's UX is full of slow ui animations, lack of features, customization, etc. At least it has privacy and security.

Some of the games appeared to not have randomness (eg PacMan ghost patterns). Was this an intentional gameplay feature, or did the hardware lack a suitable source of entropy?

Yeah that's the problem. If taste is important enough an objection that you block infrastructure that could save lives or house folks on the edge of homelessness, then do we really need to take the objection seriously? As a GP said, there's always a list of pros and cons. We can't let any tiny con, namely something as subjective as taste, get in the way of building life-saving infrastructure.
I hope very much this comes to market because for me it's a close-to-perfect device. I've been wanting an ortholinear keyboard on a small linux-capable mobile device for a long time now. That keyboard seriously is exactly what I've been dreaming about for a while now.

Others have implemented these via custom enclosures either 3D-printed or acrylic laser-cut, but the time and resources I'd need to invest for that are probably equal to or more than what I'd spend on just an MNT Pocket Reform.

Alternatively, I could get a tablet PC and just pair it with an ortholinear keyboard. This leaves the option open for x86_64, which is unfortunately a requirement for Proton Mail's bridge application. Ultimately I think a specialized device would be a more satisfying solution, even if it means having to use Proton Mail's web interface...

I worked with React almost exclusively for ~5 years. I got so fed up with everyone reinventing the wheel on every project, coming to Angular (late) was a massive breath of fresh air. I now spend more time building valuable features rather than discussing changing state management libraries and people banging on about hooks all day long. YMMV, and I'm certainly in the minority, but I'd probably choose Angular over React for any new projects now, personal or professional. The only thing I really miss is that JSX is much more ergonomic and the devtools for React are a bit better.

What if a wing fails on an f1 car? Or a suspension component? Or a tire?

Cars that get their downforce from traditional aero elements are also susceptible to catastrophic failures if they hit bumps too big for the design to handle. Mercedes famously demonstrated this at Le Mans.

Anyway this car is designed for people to have fun with at track days, so their are no rules, so you can't make it illegal.
