I have no trouble perceiving the point that the problem is intentional vs unintentional misuse of a facility.

An honest mistake is an accident that isn't repeated, or if repeated, happens in a random manner rather than exhibiting any particular pattern (seems to express neither a conservative nor a liberal worldview, nor any other potential agenda, consistently).

If someone has a desire to do something like use some position or tool they happen to have access to for some purpose of their own rather than it's intended use, and lacks the integrity to avoid doing so on their own, that desire and that lack of integrity doesn't change or stop even if they get chastised for some misdeed. They still want to do things like that, and they still don't see what the problem is, and they still do the same things, merely trying to do a better job of camoflage and deniability.

Holy shit that's a very misleading typo. Thanks for pointing it out.
Ask HN: Could you help me identify which fallacy this is?
Example:
Person A: I won't vote for the lesser of two evils.

Person B: But if lots of people like you did that in this election, the greater of two evils might win.

I thought this was the bandwagon fallacy, but yourlogicalfallacyis.com/bandwagon describes the fallacy as "appealing to popularity or the fact that many people do something as an attempted form of validation." In this case, refusing to vote for the lesser of two evils is unpopular. Other websites have similar definitions of the bandwagon fallacy.
Are there any semantic search implementations focused on.. small, local deploys?

Eg i'm interested in local serverless setups (on desktop, mobile, etc) that yield quality search results in the ~instant~ time frame, but that are also complete and accurate in results. Ie i threw out investigating ANN because i wanted complete results due to smaller datasets.

Well I don't know how it is nowadays because so many creators have flocked there and I could absolutely imagine that thirst traps are so numerous and popular that the algorithm cant do a good job anymore. To be fair I joined more than 3 years ago "to check what my kids was raving about" and remember how I regularly was amazed on what the algorithm dug up for me, funny interesting content from people that seemed genuine. I still get that feeling but maybe not as much. And I never had any issues of watching too much either. It's just my kind of social media.

But I also have a couple of times where I fucked up the algo by liking the wrong video and having to mindfully steer it back on track again. So it's not magic, ofc.
Right. I think the important distinction is whether an imperative language is used to describe things that could be done purely declaratively, as is the case with Gradle[1]. I think this happens all too often because the oldschool declarative system has some edge case that it can't handle, so someone reinvents it with a fake DSL which is actually a dialect of an imperative language, and now you have the worst of both worlds. I've always thought that what we needed was a way to allow both declarative and functional information to be provided, but with a clearer separation between the two. e.g. a build configuration language based on this approach might allow one to specify either 'buildArtifactId: "xyz123"' or 'buildArtifactIdExpression: (functional expression to compute a build artifact ID goes here)'.

I sort of tried to do this with the Factorio terrain generation system[2]. The first phase is to run a Lua program, which is imperative, but the result is an immutable object representing the terrain generation configuration, which in turn includes functional expressions, since a map where everything is constant would be boring.

[1] I f&!@#^ing hate Gradle; it is my go-to example of thoughtlessly mashing paradigms together because you can, resulting in something that nobody I have ever met really has really been able to work with except by trial and error.

I mean it's pretty obvious to anyone that's paying attention. I suppose it's nice to have some data to confirm the state of affairs.

Not holding my breath for any kind of change though. Well change that gives more power to the people anyway, a furter slide towards authorianism seems likely unfortunately.
I think this comment actually unintentionally is reinforcing his point.

Other programming languages than Erlang exist for a reason, they're not just fun toy languages for low IQ folks. There are tons of reasons why Erlang may not be a good fit for some project, and one of these other lesser languages would be a better fit, and he doesn't want to work with people who wouldn't even consider something like that.

Has anyone made this work? I tried to make it work. Even at 10% (Discover IT category + end of year match), you can’t buy something, have it shipped to you, sell it, ship it, and make money. Any online marketplace eats your profit very quickly with assorted fees.
To be fair, this was using Darktable 3.6 (I had to open /Applications/darktable.app/Contents/info.plist to check as there is no About menu). Updating to the current latest 4.0.1.1_arm64 at least the metadata popup issue is mostly, but not 100%, fixed, and I could navigate through my catalog.

Adding: Even though my Fujifilm X-T4 is listed as supported on https://www.darktable.org/resources/camera-support/, and the preview images in grid mode appear, opening a single image displays two visually overlapping error messages about not being able to open the raw file. (One message is about switching to lighttable, the other about not being able to read white balance info. The image is not displayed.)
> In order to get one model in the G4 lineup down under $2,000-and to get it out to customers as soon as possible Apple placed a 400MHz G4 processor onto a slightly modified version of the blue-and-white G3’s logic board and put the board in the new Power Mac G4 case.

One really shitty thing Apple did alongside this was release a firmware update for the actual Blue&White G3 which prevented it from booting with a G4 CPU swapped in, something that worked fine with the original 1.0 firmware: https://web.archive.org/web/20021002071131/http://docs.info....

Luckily the block was easily and quickly undone by the various upgrade manufacturers, but it shouldn't have been there to begin with: https://macintoshgarden.org/apps/powerlogix-g4-firmware-upda...
Sure, that makes sense. It's just worth noting that the U.S. are not an outlier amongst developed nations when looking at wealth inequality -- which, IMO, is the much more important metric.
ffmpeg has dedicated code for decoding h264 on ppc, as well as all the support code for rescaling and yuv->rgb conversion etc. It's probably not going to be able to decode super ultra duper high bitrate h264, but I would expect it to be able to decode 24fps 720p at standard bitrates without breaking a sweat, and it probably ought to be able to handle 30fps 1080p.

yea I do interactive rebase all the time on my local git to clean up my commits before I push them up.

I also started doing `git commit --fixup` when doing cr fixes so I can just autosquash the fixes - `git rebase --autosquash`

So yea I think rebase and merge commits both have their place within a workflow.
Proof that I'd be sympathetic if they showed those things? That's a tall ask. But I promise I would be.

Proof that authorized resellers in aggregate provide better service and therefore fewer escalations/expense to the manufacturer? I didn't make that claim for Apple specifically, but it seems plausible.

Here in the US I could buy reading glasses in a pharmacy for less than $10 (several variations). They come in a range like -2.0 to +2.0 in increments of 0.25.

I don't wear glasses, but I suppose I did I could get something that roughly works for me for a price of a coffee and a couple of doughnuts. These glasses don't look cool, but don't look ugly either, they are just extremely basic. Likely fine for reading at home.

Strange because Mitnick puts most of his exploits down to social engineering, not technical prowess.

But then taking anything a self-confessed social engineer says about themselves at face value is obviously problematic.
This example is backwards:

Showing a map printout while ignoring runtime state is declarative; executing directions step by step, adapted to the present state of the system, is imperative.

I’ll set aside my feelings about stretching meaning to say — if you are going to use technical words this way, don’t use them backwards.
Serious comment, no judgment meant or implied to you or others:
As one who grew up without the usual structures of family or cultural supports, and who banged up against cultural guardrails more than a few times, consider the idea that books may help and the chosen author's angle on the question of purpose still boils down to what are you going to do today?

If you can at least mentally strip away the comforts of your life, what will you do to survive, assuming you want to succeed (on your terms, not the world's) at something that gets you up in the morning? You'll probably begin to ask yourself what am I good at, what do I want to learn, how can I learn it? Reality is a constraint, and you have to figure that out.

This may not work for people in certain mental states or stages in life, but I hope this helps.

In perfectly competitive markets, producers are price takers. That includes at a wholesale distribution level.

Being able to pick and choose your customers (and apply conditions to any sale that favour Apple and disadvantage the customer) is a perfect indication of the level of market power that apple possesses.

Most businesses in competitive industries don’t get to do that.
I usually like to start my own custom builds by looking at what is available from businesses that are specialized in selling custom PC builds and have been in business for years/decades(IE CyberPowerPC, Digital Storm, Falcon Northwest, PowerSpec PC(MicroCenter store brand) or Puget Systems) to see what is commercially available that would fit my needs. Then I start pricing out similar builds to see if it makes sense to build my own PC or not depending on what the individual components would cost me vs just buying a commercially available PC. Recently with the supply chain issues just finding the parts has been a challenge so that also needs to be factored into the equation too. Because of the supply chain issues and 3rd party resellers scalping hardware like crazy, sometimes it makes sense financially to just buy a prebuilt system just to get some components at a reasonable price(especially if you're willing to go through the hassle and time to sell the parts you don't need).

If I decide to build my own PC then I start looking up specifications and reviews on individual components. It takes a lot of time but you can eventually find some good YouTube vids or a forum post normally of someone doing an in-depth review of just about everything nowadays. I also don't buy 1st gen bleeding edge releases of any hardware product because I have been burned too many times over the years and it helps save a ton of cash.

In terms of fusion drivers I've always liked NASA's PuFF[1] or Pulsed Fission Fusion. The idea is to use a normal z-pinch pulsed fusion setting, which won't normally be self sustaining. But if you surround the D-T mix with depleted uranium it'll adsorb a lot of the fast neutrons from the fusion and trigger a round of fission generating more energy. The recoil against the magnetic compressor/nozzle should be enough to generate enough energy for the next pulse and the reaction byproduct are emitted to become your propellant.

Squash commit will squash everything done into a single commit, so reverting it is easier.

Also when you have to cherry-pick fixes into an older release branch, you get to fully appreciate squashed merges. If you did not squash, you need to cherry-pick all commits from the merge. If the feature branch was not rebased and the dev merged main into the feature branch multiple times, then the branch commits are inter-mingled with main commits and it is so easy to mess up the cherry-picking. Just imagine if the dev had to fix conflicts...

All that makes squash commit a time-saver.

FWIW, the only exchanges allowed to do business with NY residents are (were?) Coinbase and Gemini. Perhaps worth looking at what the barrier to doing business is there.

Not really most contractors I know are just regular programmers, average in skill. Their rate is around 800eu/day, they all work in big bureaucratic enterprises. Hiring contractors is basically the only way a lot of those companies can get access to somewhat decent talent.

And it is not as expensive as it seems. If you live in a country with strong social safety nets hiring someone is crazy expensive.

The few contractors I know that work normal software jobs have lower rates, but they still make good money.

I think you simply misunderstand the comment. I don't know how you are reading the word "bootlicker" and not taking the implication that their views are to be disregarded, or why you don't think "bootlicker" is an undesirable category.

Please note that I'm not saying you shouldn't read a comment history. I'm saying, you shouldn't weaponize a comment history.

If you examine the sibling thread to this one, I think you'll find that the commenter clarifies that they do, in fact, hold this person's views in contempt. Frankly when I skimmed the comment history in question I did find comments that made me go "yikes!", but that doesn't mean we engage in a no holds barred rhetorical cage match. As I've argued, that does harm to the conversation and community and fails to reach the people who should be reached.
This is an interesting example, and perhaps pushes part of the blame and dislike for A/B testing onto tech companies' incentives.

If you're building a tool to make life easier for the user, something that gives them a better experience is your optimal outcome. This seems like a scenario where A/B can produce a good outcome.

The challenge is when you throw in an ad-based revenue model, and the A/B testing is then optimized for the opposite (eyeball-hours, linear metres scrolled per session, ad spots passed, ads clicked) - engagement-based business models end up (I'd argue) A/B optimizing for the opposite of what their users want, to get them to spend longer doing a task they could have done quicker.

I don't believe MS ever had onsite fitness centers. Employees got subsidized memberships to offsite gyms, but the only things onsite were/are playfields and showers for bike commuters, etc.

Him keeping the wealth?

He's lost literally 73% of his wealth over the past year and change (assuming it's all META ownership). That is a spectacular drop.

And the people getting laid off are getting very generous severance packages.

So I don't know what you're talking about. The market has punished him, and quite severely, for his missteps.

But it's not like he was being evil or malicious or something. He overhired thinking growth would continue. It didn't. Now he has to lay off. A million managers have found themselves in the same situation before.
I'm pretty sure he didn't lose a single one of his billions paying them, but good on him anyways. He definitely didn't have to do it.
Compared with his net worth, or compared with the reduction in his net worth?
Having strong opinions is a great thing, expressing them in such a way is not. Especially if you expect to be taken seriously.
Anecdotally, Airbnb rentals are a lot less profitable now. An informal and definitely biased survey of friends I know who run 1-4 units: price drops of about 40% are happening, and they have significantly fewer inquiries.

I predict that will continue as potential guests tighten their belts. And as more 2nd homes are a drag on their owners cash flow, there will be more people listing on ABNB to make some cash. That will cause a glut of supply and further drive down prices.
