The U.S. Declaration of Independence was my first exposure to the long S. (Or should I say my firſt?)

I read through that, the Constitution, and the Bill of Rights from souvenir reproductions in middle school. I was curious about this letter and kept digging until I found out what it was, and what it was for. Later that helped me understand the proper use of the eszett (ß) in German.

Don't worry. You've got the intuition necessary to ask the right questions and filter through the results to quickly find the solution to whatever problem you're facing in CS when it comes up.
You could just take the SIM card out and never connect it to wifi.

Things like navigation can be done on-board (proven when in zero connectivity area), and playing MP3s from a USB can replace spotify.

No idea what it might start complaining about long term though when it can't talk to the backend for extended periods.
Can I ask what your credentials are? And could you write a post addressing their points?

Edit: that sounds hostile, it isn't meant to, just curious.
> I use sanitizers to catch memory problems, but there have only been a few of those over the years. Maybe ECS just isn't that vulnerable to memory-safety problems?

To expand on this a bit. In games, objects generally fit into two categories:

1. Short-lived temporary objects, usually stack-allocated or arena-allocated, etc. e.g. a point vector, or matrix.

2. Long-lived objects with indeterminate lifetime. e.g. a character or item.

In the case of long-lived objects, there are various strategies you could use to make it safe e.g. using object IDs or custom smart pointers to refer to other objects that potentially might go missing instead of pointers which are bound to be corrupted.

Generally you want to register all of your long-lived objects in one central location that will handle memory management. Manual, reference counting or GC are all viable strategies depending on requirements.

I like Rust and would use it for games but mainly because of the package management.
You have to be very careful when talking about relative pollutant emissions. Yes, the average EV is heavier and results in more tire wear and tire dust, but note that these particles are much larger (pm10 or larger) than most ICE particulates (~pm2.5). Heavier particles fall out of the air much faster and don't get stuck in the bottom of lungs. Overall pm2.5 particles are far more harmful to human health once inhaled as well.
Regarding maintenance, road wear is a high order function with axle weight - so trucks and weathering contribute the vast majority of wear. So light duty cars getting a bit heavier won't make much difference, and regulations already bound axle weights, so it won't be increasing for EV heavy duty vehicles.

This all being said, the average American city and suburb suck and totally need to be reorganized around literally anything except the automobile. Visiting the Netherlands just made me sad...thinking this is how nice cities can be. I imagine the mental health benefits of such city planning could even outweigh the environmental ones.
I increased my screen brightness till it would work most of the time. Hopefully that will help your fingerprint reader at least. I have a Pixel 6 Pro for reference.
> If employers stop getting the candidates they want with location-based offers, they will go away. Right now people may grumble, but they sign. Like OP did.

Yes, which is why I recommend not accepting location-based pay. It works!

> Making a Bay Area offer when you could just as well have closed the candidate with a locally competitive offer doesn't make business sense.

Sure it does. If your revenue isn't locale dependent then it makes perfect business sense. Obviously if you're selling local McRuralTown widgets for McRuralTown denizens and the cost of living in McRuralTown is peanuts then this won't work for you, but you're probably going to have a hard time hiring smart software people.

> If the company ever needs to trim its sails, then reverting to location-based pay would be a natural step.

Typically this is a non-reversible policy. Reverting to locale-based pay is a suicide pill unless you're churning your entire workforce, in which case the pill is likely already between your teeth.
Even from a lefty perspective: people vary wildly in the value they produce. A society that paid based on output would be as if not more unequal than today's. Plus it does nothing for the people who need money to live but can't or don't do economic production: children, elderly, disabled, caregivers, etc. Socialists will sometimes emphasize the share of productivity captured by capital to argue for redistribution to labor as a class, but for individuals to be paid their own productivity is AFAICT not any serious movement's demand.

And then obviously from the capitalist perspective, your employment only exists to the extent that the employer derives more value from your work than they pay you.
You can using these function macros to C++:

UFUNCTION(BlueprintCallable)
// This is a purely C++ function that is exposed to Blueprints and can be called from blueprints

UFUNCTION(BlueprintNativeEvent)
// This can be implemented in C++, Blueprint, or both (in the Blueprint implementation, call the Parent method and it will run the C++ function and then run the Blueprint function)

UFUNCTION(BlueprintImplementableEvent)
// This is a purely Blueprint function (though it is defined in the C++ header) that can be called from C++.

I believe there may also be some funky reflection code you can create to invoke Blueprint functions from C++, but there's very little reason for that as BlueprintImplementableEvent does that in a cleaner way.

Priorities tend to shift when your whole team has already been laid off, the product line cancelled and you still have the ability to make something flashy to put on your CV (again, I wasn't there myself).

seems to me that email transport is by now a fairly robust and universal delivery mechanism at least just above the IP layer, and it's utility decline creates the perfect opportunity to piggyback a new system on top of the existing infrastructure:

This is because teachers are themselves graded on standardized test results. Standardized tests don't give a crap about curiosity.

So classroom instruction in the US ends up being mostly about the teachers making sure that their students won't drastically underperform on the standardized test.

So is the logic "technology X is potentially dangerous and therefore should be kept in the hands of the morally ambiguous (at best) corporation that created it"?

If Google made something dangerous, well, I don't trust Google at all. I'd rather have it in the open so I know what I'm dealing with. (I know Stable Diffusion isn't a google product, I'm using it as a neutral-ish example.)

But also, what dangers are we talking about? "The model produces something racist" is not _dangerous_ to anyone, it means the model needs work to make it not do racist things. Wouldn't public release help with that?

I haven't made the count, but the number of people living in countries that recognize Taiwan is tiny and likely smaller than one percent of the total population. Therefore, by the definition as supplied, Taiwan cannot possibly be a state. Yet it is fairly clear that it is in many ways more state-like than Palestine, and it has a firmer grasp than Palestine does on its self-defined territory (at least for the time being).

Ultimately, states don't have unanimous definitions and just relying on a dictionary definition is not sufficient.

Have you written any Rust code by chance? I personally think Rust is easier than C++, possibly because it is a lot smaller language than C++ (at present). It isn't magic, but it kinda feels like it. To be able to do low level coding knowing you can't blow your foot off is pretty cool.
Interesting perspective. Another view: solar panels on your roof, using your car battery for your house nighttime needs means that during doomsday your energy intensive lifestyle doesn't have to change at all.
The sci-fi book I'm in the middle of reading regularly mentions a popular residential building technique of planting bioengineered seeds that grow into a permanent structure over the course of a year or so.

I noticed that you referred to an AI with a disembodied voice as "her". Not that unusual, as sailors (even today) refer to ships as "her", and Davy Crockett named his rifle "Old Betsy".

Ask HN: Do you consider “AI art” to be real art?
After the release of DALL-E 2, Midjourney, Stable Diffusion, and other text-to-image AI systems, there's been a flood of AI-generated artwork, with one piece even winning a competition[1].

HN readers, do you consider the images generated by these AI models to be art? Is it really ethical that they were trained on other artists' work?

Well, its mostly your fault. Start demanding more, if you are locked into your current job and can't see yourself getting a raise, move on somewhere else. I was stuck with low European salaries in my first year as Developer. In my second year I quadruppled that salary by setting my lower limit 4x higher and moved to south-east Asia to lower my cost of living by half. My old-colleagues are still complaining about the high costs of living back home, and the low salaries as well. While they would actually be more senior and even more productive in the job I got after leaving them.

Please, no more of this. Bicycles should be on their own dedicated right of way, mixing them with cars is dangerous for cyclists, but mixing bikes with pedestrians is dangerous for pedestrians.

An EV makes a great second car in Canada but the long distances and cold weather are problematic for current EV technology. Hopefully that improves relatively soon.
They aren't going after economies. If you look closely at their design choices, they are building a pure scale-out vector machine unlike anything else currently on the market. I'm guessing they expect it to be head & shoulders ahead for their inhouse workload.
The same philosophy could be applied to retail and other areas, forget small time hospitals, let the U. S. Government take care of your health.
That might be something worth talking to a journalist about.
No? If I started a company in Canada tomorrow, why would I reduce my talent pool and not look at the US? Most startups are eschewing offices in an obvious move for cash-strapped businesses. If you're hiring remote then borders should be a mild nuisance at worst, and at best a force multiplier.

Example: Show me a startup in the YC job board based in Canada (there are many these days) that is hiring locally only for software engineers.

The competition argument is getting weaker and weaker, IMO. The point of competition, in theory, is to facilitate a kind of darwinian process that iterates toward an optimal solution. We have basically found that: Gmail pretty much just works for 99% of people. I sympathize with the 1% it doesn’t work for, but appeals to competition are not the way forward.

You both have limited availability of the node and limited availability of the particular chip.

It’s not just about parser throughput, it also helps with giving better error messages (because the compiler can make better sense of partially-broken syntax), which is something the Rust team cares a whole lot about.
Also, even if the first version didn't make financial sense, building the team and the infrastructure required to make this work will likely translate into a next generation chip.

Part of Tesla vertical integration mantra is that you are building internal capacity.
>If your revenue isn't locale dependent then it makes perfect business sense.

The delta between the wage needed to get & keep the candidate vs. the wage you're actually paying them is essentially a charitable donation here. Of course businesses regularly do philanthropy, nothing wrong with that. Their own upper-middle-class employees are a weird choice of beneficiary though.

Business sense would be to keep the money and put it towards its most productive use, like hiring another employee or procuring labor-saving technology.
Okay, interesting. I guess I'll stick with what I've got now for the time being, then. Thanks.
>> they obviously didn't put any effort into the syntax

> This is an incredibly arrogant and ignorant statement to make, especially for someone who self-describes as "looking only occasionally into Rust".

There is nothing arrogant or especially ignorant about my statement.

I'm primary using a language that has a shitload more features than Rust but gets along with a fraction of syntax.

So from my standpoint this is clearly something to criticize Rust for.

And this is very sad imho as I think Rust is a great language as such. A great language with a miserable syntax!

That's especially unfortunate as there are today no technical reasons to make ugly languages given how fast our computers are.

> A whole lot of thought has been put into Rust's syntax.

Who knows, maybe you're even right, idk.

But at least the result does not show, and that's the only relevant part.

> My impression is that a certain amount of this was intentional; if their goal is to attract C++ developers, they can't scare them off with syntax that's wildly alien.

That's imho nonsense. You can't "scare" C++ developers with syntax. They already endure one of the most broken syntaxes out there.

One does not use C++ because of its syntax, but in spite of that monstrosity!

One endures it as the language has other until lately unmatched properties. But C++'s look & feel is just a horrible historical accident all in all.

Rust would be attractive for its features no mater the syntax.

As we see it gets hyped and does very well for a newcomer even it's overly and needlessly ugly.

> Fewer characters doesn't automatically mean better readability; in many cases it can mean the opposite.

Sure.

But it's Rust that uses almost every ASCII char for some special purposes; imitating by doing so one or two of the worst examples history ever created.

The other thing is: Putting outright line noise everywhere only because that makes reading the code simpler for the machine is just the completely wrong priority. Less line noise makes reading code definitely simpler for humans. It has reasons why math notation looks like it looks after hundreds of years of optimization…

The whole point of good syntax is that you can mostly ignore the syntax and concentrate on the message. But Rust is like C++, you can often hardly see the actual content as it's burrowed under a pile of ugly needless syntax noise.

Copying a bad example is definitely nothing to be proud of. Rust failed in that regard miserably, imho. For completely incomprehensible reasons—which make it especially bad.

It's a real pity such a great language looks like a archaic accident!
