This makes it sound like the judge is an outlier. The situation doesn't come up very often. Most people who sign binding agreements to buy something intend to buy it. The face that she previously dealt with it is funny though.
The noteworthy part is that the American dream for these people meant mobility from serfdom and abject poverty to a lifestyle that would now be considered abysmal.

For an Irish immigrant it wasn't about becoming a billionaire, it was about making sure your children have enough food to survive a winter.

Social mobility from nothing to basic necessities is still quite high in the US. Maybe not home ownership, but there are a lot of clear paths to be able to feed a family.
I've the temptation to jump in and recommend the "Ancillary Justice" series, and if you can handle a bit of pseudo-horror, the "Hyperion" series is fantastic too.
>But Twitter obviously owes it to its shareholders to demand the full $40-some-odd billion rather than settling for the $1B alternative relief — though given Musk’s antics, it’s probably in the best interests of the shareholders to take less and keep Musk’s hands away from the rudder.

I don't understand this. If Musk buys the company for $40B, then what do the current shareholders care whether he does a bad job of running it? They won't be shareholders anymore! They'll have gotten their $52.40 per share and will have no more (financial) interest in whether Twitter does well or not.

Have I misunderstood the situation somehow?
His net worth has multiplied by a high number since then, largely thanks to the performance of Tesla stock. I don’t see any way to interpret that other than “winning,” if we’re measuring the result of his past decisions regarding Tesla or its financials.

When I think of old games, I think of arcade games not consoles, so it is the opposite for me.

The controls were designed specifically for that game and they were industrial strength. Once you had the controls for a specific game wired they became an extension of you, it was zen.
You might have seen my post for https://hub.liquidaty.com/playground/ (make sure to include the trailing slash), which I posted a couple months ago with temporary public access (I am one of its founders). I'm not very good at the art of hackernews posts so not surprised if it got lost.

Anyway, from that site, you can:

- upload CSV, TXT, XLSX in local browser
- run SQL queries on one or more files
- run validation reports (like, real validation reports, with drill-down, breakouts, etc, not the BS ones that most products tout but are just an SQL query with a where clause)
- convert data to JSON, sqlite3, etc
- create and share your own domains that allow collaboration and reuse of common business processes, and also enable trainable smart mapping to whatever dictionary you define (e.g. map "Name, First" to "First Name"), automated rescaling (e.g. detect if percentages are x100 and automatically divide by 100 if so), automated derivations (e.g. A + B = C, my validation tests C. System figures out how to get C, regardless of whether data contains C, or only contains A and B). Automatically convert your data into schema Y. Etc.

It is now in private beta but from the website, you'll see a link to request access (by emailing support@liquidaty.com) and we'll give you a free beta account (you must have a legit linked-in account for federated login). Or feel free to send regular questions to that email address
This is a good point that I thought about but clearly don't appreciate enough. Thanks for the stats.

Nope! Both are fully native macOS apps, at least on the version of Monterey that I'm running.

You can examine which frameworks a binary links by running `otool -l /System/Applications/Photos.app/Contents/MacOS/Photos`. Traditional macOS Cocoa apps will link AppKit, while Catalyst apps will link UIKit.

For example, if you run that command with a Catalyst app (e.g., Messages or Maps), you'll see that those apps link against `/System/iOSSupport/System/Library/Frameworks/UIKit.framework/Versions/A/UIKit`, and AppKit is nowhere to be found.
Thank you for your comment, it is unexpected. I've read bunch of news articles about Rogozin, Roscosmos and Vostochniy cosmodrome, and I would agree with 'okay-ish for Putin's era' assessment of his management.

But I wouldn't separate his management from his public speeches. As top-level official, his shitposting may be as important as his management decisions. Before him, Russian space industry were decaying but it was declaring a peaceful goals (I remember ambitious Phobos-Grunt mission that was close to success). Now Roscosmos looks like a department of ministry of defence.

I know that classical rotational symmetry leads to conservation of angular momentum by Noether's theorem.

I suspect if you break the rotational symmetry of the speed of light that you wind up breaking something like conservation of quantum spin angular momentum and the universe rapidly becomes nonsensical.
It is possible to get a position as a graduate assistant or teaching assistant where the university pays for your tuition and pays your living expenses in exchange for you helping the CS department with various tasks (which can include teaching undergrad classes if you're a TA).

I did that for a year and then ended up a class short of graduating because of a scheduling mistake. Since staying a grad assistant wasn't an option, I ultimately dropped out and started working instead. Getting the GA job required me to take the GRE (I scored 170 on the math part, 165 on the verbal and 90 something percentile for both with only minimal studying for the test) and be interviewed about some undergrad CS concepts.

If you're able to do grad school in CS and you've already got permanent legal status in the US, it doesn't really make financial sense even if you're a GA or TA. You can make much more just getting a job. That said, I don't regret doing it because I probably enjoyed that year more than any of my undergrad years (this was pre-pandemic) and I didn't go into any additional debt to do it!
As far as I have heard, they could choose to use N out of M channels for either upload or download and they are choosing to keep it the way it is. Probably they need to keep it that way for other reasons (their own cable-TV signal goes through it). But I know nothing about the electronics/signal-processing involved, so I could be totally wrong.
Not OP

It serializes better, it's memory safe, it can be much faster in performance terms, you can get better memory usage if you're holding a lot of "pointers" because the indexes don't need to be 64 bits.

I'd go for Grafana Cloud over Papertrail.

The $7/month papertrail account seems to be just 1 GB/month of logs which is pretty trivial. With grafana you get 50 GB/month plus everything else.

GCC is less opaque (less of a black box) than these language models.
I know this is going to be a controversial opinion considering how much everyone seems to love Rust, but does anyone else find Rust incredibly painful to work with, even for simple tasks? Like I'm no stranger to unmanaged languages, and to some extent I cut my teeth on C, but doing anything with Rust always feels like the most aggravating exercise in needless verbosity and the "Lombok problem" doesn't help either. (Funnily enough, both these reasons are why I don't like Java either). I don't want to sound too negative, Rust is a very promising language, but even seven(!) years later it still feels like a pre-alpha language.
> who died of, not with, covid?

Continuing to return to this distinction is disingenuous and suggests bad faith. I have not seen a single case of a death pronouncement for COVID which has not unambiguously been from COVID. I'm not saying that shenanigans have never happened anywhere in this regard, but I'd guess that I've seen more people die OF COVID than any other single cause over the last few years, so it's hard for me to imagine that a handful of fraudulent cases would move the needle much.

> Were these people in long-term inpatient care / skilled nursing facilities? Or dependent on home health care aides and visiting nurses?

No, none of them. We don't have any of those nearby in my rural location.

> Are you claiming to have personally provided care to large numbers of previously healthy twenty-somethings and thirty-somethings who unambiguously died of covid?

You'd have to define large and "previously healthy." I'd speculate that the dozen or so deaths that I've seen in this category are "plenty" -- more than I've seen in this age group from any other cause in my short career, other than perhaps alcoholism.

I also really don't understand why this is so difficult for people on HN to believe. HN is an interesting place for technical topics, but the threads on medicine truly make me shudder. My one are is subject matter expertise is the one most likely to earn downvotes for some reason.

I graduated last year. If you enjoy academics, do it. Don’t expect you’re gonna be building React apps or something. If you want that, do a bootcamp I guess. It’s a traditional program where you’ll use C, Java, and Python to learn how computers work.
> The difference is in what happens to the rich people isn’t it?

Not as much as the rhetoric makes it seems.

> Fascists usually collaborate with the rich whereas communists tend to strip their wealth.

Fascists usually integrate the rich that the leadership doesn’t have some other reason to hate into the system, while liquidating those–and not always just their holdings–that don’t fit that description, even if wealthy, so long as they are willing to cooperate, retaining their nominal property but with their actual power and influence more determined by their degree of attachment to the regime, not their nominal ownership of property (that’s a consequence of the authoritarian corporatist–viewing all institutions of society as necessary subordinate to a single vision–aspect of fascism.)

Leninists (et al.)…do pretty much the same thing, except that they are more likely to not allow even nominal ownership of property. But since Leninism is (and its derivates are) also an authoritarian corporatist system, it is not ownership of property but position (formal or informal) in the ruling heirarchy that really allows you direct the use of property, just as in fascism.
I just don't think ProtonMail is really worth it as an individual. 90% of my emails either go to or come from servers operated by Microsoft, Google and Amazon. So they're being seen in clear text anyway. And probably harvested for my data.

PGP is built in to proton to fix this but good luck getting someone else to use it. The added value in terms of privacy is only really there if you email with other proton users. And I don't know any.

I just kinda gave up on email instead. As have most companies. Who sends sensitive information by email anymore? It's become a glorified notification service "Come view your message at our portal". Personally I think email is broken beyond repair.

> Such a catastrophic event isn't out of the question for VC either.

It is out of the question with the current legal system. Because of limited liability for this to be true they would have to have invested more than the total profits. The individual investments could lose a lot of money but the VC loss is capped at their original investment.
> And even without Putin’s statements the piles of evidence from the acts on the ground admit no other explanation.

Bucha, Irpin, Kharkiv, Mariupol etc... It's all there, anyone denying this is either utterly blind or a Russian apologist, these are all war crimes. And Putin's (convoluted) rhetoric has arrived at a single point: that Ukraine are not their own people or culture.

The latest Russian missile attack was on a civilian shopping center FFS! This isn't war conventional between militaries, this is terrorism on civilians when Ukraine attacks on Russian munition depots in Ukrainian territory or some other military target is successful.

Russia has bombed Lviv and Kyiv as well when similar successful military strikes took place with civilian casualties.

The truth is that this is really looking less like a proxy war and more like a hyper-localized World War, if Iran is really supplying UAVs to Russia and China and India is buying their energy to bypass sanctions than the BRICS alliance looks like the geo-political strata is shaking out; one cannot help but feel that if this isn't fought qnd won then Taiwan will be the CCPs next move as it is starting to crack under it's own myopic weight as the Zero COVID policy is taking it's toll and making internal civil war inevitable as the bank freezes/bail-ins are happening there.
When they started talking about using it as a Bluetooth keyboard, I couldn't help thinking that they wanted an AlphaSmart. Sure enough, they brought it up (albeit, without mentioning that it could be used as a wired keyboard).

The brilliant thing about the AlphaSmart is that is transferred data to the computer as a keyboard. That ensured it was compatible with almost any computer of the era and it will likely support any device that supports USB host mode today.

I graduated with a humanities degree from Penn, spent a decade working and eventually became a self-taught developer, then obtained a masters degree in computer engineering through Boston University’s LEAP program. While I agree with most points in the article, getting my master’s degree was definitely the right choice for me. The program I attended also included undergraduate courses to ramp up to the master’s, so it is a little different than what is being critiqued here.

The main omission of the article is that while the author feigns (or projects) surprise that universities aren’t entirely dedicated to teaching, they omit the major benefit of _opportunity_ that students get when attending universities.

I entered the program knowing that I wanted to focus on things like cloud computing and k8s; it turned out my university had a partnership with one of the two main companies working in k8s and this allowed me an opportunity to get an internship.

That’s just my personal example, but the connections and opportunities from attending a university are a pretty fundamental part of the experience and outcomes. It is the other half of the coin for the individual students in the visa cash cow story.

Even though Socrates was condemned to execution, there was some expectation that he would choose to flee the city instead—that exile was a viable alternative and he wouldn't be pursued. I wouldn't be surprised if some of the jurors who voted for the execution thought that this would be the more likely outcome—which is perhaps why the prosecution pushed for this over fines.

"In the event, friends, followers, and students encouraged Socrates to flee Athens, an action which the citizens expected; yet, on principle, Socrates refused to flout the law and escape his legal responsibility to Athens (see: Crito). Therefore, faithful to his teaching of civic obedience to the law, the 70-year-old Socrates executed his death sentence and drank the hemlock, as condemned at trial. (See: Phaedo)."

One high level problem with learning Rust is that a lot of the patterns we use to work with the borrow checker are pretty non-obvious. (Things like using indexes instead of references, and avoiding methods that keep &self borrowed.) To the extend that Rc and Arc let you avoid learning those patterns, I agree with folks who say not to use them too much. But if you know how you might solve something without Rc, and you want to try it with Rc anyway to see how it feels, that's totally reasonable.

> Even with CS… honesty I still disagree that academia doesn’t have a purpose or value

I said their model is not viable and they need to evolve. Academia and education has a lot of value.

> Just reading a good research papers recently, one of my favorite recent topics being new ways to discover spy cameras using smartphones

That research paper probably started by the author searching on google and finding a conspicuous mind showing how they were able to use their phones to spot IR lights.

> Also some of our greatest minds have received a lot of benefits from an academic environments

I agree, we need a central resource of our greatest minds and that's why I hope academia finds a way to evolve, because widespread education is doomed if they don't. Important to note, some of our greatest minds are autodidacts.

> My degree cost me out of pocket about ~$5k for my tuition

Most people don't even know how they are going to pay for the next rent or meal. They should still be able to access knowledge and education.

> Sounds like a version of tutorial hell potentially

Any subject as complicated as it might seem, to a devoted person digging information online they can learn it. Academia is not different in that aspect either, they usually just provide a direct link to the information and students have to learn it on their own.
The tendency for a good 50 years is a Master's degree will return a significantly higher expected lifetime of earnings.
Toleration of extremism by main-stream Americans allowed extremist attitudes in America to grow to the point where they threaten democracy. Expressing a negative opinion of others is not necessarily bad. It can be helpful and sometimes necessary. If you assume I mean either conservative or liberal extremism, then you are reading something that is not in this comment.
Meanwhile, farmers in Netherlands are no longer allowed to grow food.
If there ever was a reason to have the right to own arms, and to overthrow the government, I think losing the right to grow food is a valid justification for a "self-coup".

But, if you take a very big view of things, both the religious and science fanatics believe the world is ending. They have different reasons, of course. Nonetheless, the world is not ending.

Hubble's design borrowed various elements, including the primary mirror, from existing KH-11 spy satellites as a cost saving measure.

The satellites which were donated to NASA by the NRO where likely leftover from the abortive Future Imagery Architecture program which was unrelated to Hubble.
