Wait, how does that work? If you're waiting at the same stop, you'll board the same train, right? Unless they wait for the next one to avoid you? Wouldn't they be concerned that you'll board together and continue making conversation for the entire commute?
What makes it a dead platform to you?
It might not be done with malice aforethought, so much as wilful ignorance; blind pursuit of metrics combined with a lack of any incentive to challenge the assumption that all clicks are intentional.
The two examples are human errors easily avoidable by reading the documentation. And some mechanism that uses types like method overload should be transparent from a behavior perspective.
Both consteval and constinit are evaluated at compile-time, right? If yes, then why two different keywords?
Oh cool, even the site admins are ganging up on me. Most of those comments are taken entirely out of context, or direct replies to comments that were replies to my own, but you do you.

I am using HN in the intended spirit, and I'm sorry that you're letting the echo chamber color your perception of perfectly acceptable comments. You can email me if you'd like to continue discussing this in a more professional manner (why else would I fill it...?), but I have to say this is an appalling showing of leadership on your behalf, and I hope you address it soon.

Public intimidation does not make for a safe and healthy culture. Period.
In what way is '?' not first-class error handling just because it does not exist in the context of a generalized effects framework? I don't see at all why handling other effects is a requirement for error-handling to have good ergonomics in the language.

The only difference might be "with the help of willing and responsible family members or friends" but the reality is if someone has help and is accepting it, the police won't even know about it.

They only get involved when those family members and friends call them directly, or the person is found wandering around.
They didn't jump to a completely new category of device because of the toolbars and malicious software.

They bought them because it was a new category of device (and extensive marketing from Apple - although I don't mean to discount the product with that statement - very solid phones, but also very excellent marketing). If anything - the early tech adopters moved to the iphone because it was more open than the existing phones at the time, which were definitely not general purpose computers. The iphone got us halfway there - I'd like to see us take the last few steps.
Mainly because you can set it to hand out a configured TTL - I set it to provide a min value of 2400 (40 mins) so the frequency of queries reduces and most other queries from across the LAN get answered locally from the pihole cache

Flash storage will not last as long as magnetic media. You've got 50 years, tops, and even then it requires some luck to not have any bit rot.
People have been predicting this mass starvation of poor people in X parts of the world since before even Paul R. Ehrlich opened his mouth. In his book "the population bomb" he claimed it would be because of overpopulation. Now that we've seen trends indicating all the opposite on that front, the new fad is apparently blaming it on climate change.

Either way, forgive me for being extremely doubtful. While its true that past catastrophes averted are no guarantee of future catastrophes averted, modern history has shown a remarkable tendency towards people heading off the worst of a given doom scenario before it becomes reality. Add to that the observable tendency of people to emotionally be attracted to particularly awful predictions even if their behavior indicates them as believing otherwise in practice, and the the skepticism about most doom scenarios like the one you mention is a good idea.

All data in our world today across the board indicates improving human standards of living and this has been going on for a long time. No concrete evidence shows a trend in the opposite direction to anywhere near a severe enough degree to assert the starvation of billions, or even millions. Problems exist, sure, and there are many dangerous environmental trends, but even these don't concretely establish anything like what you describe.

I'm curious if you've had any experience with Swift/Kotlin on one hand and Typescript on the other.

To me, these lie on the efficient frontier of the "compiler validation" vs "less boilerplate" tradeoff. Java is decidedly nowhere near that frontier.
>Yes. The former submission got enough attention, so it shouldn't be submitted for a year.

If this is official policy, it's kind of laughable to single out 'Show HN' posts for this treatement, given how any major techie news story gets submitted over and over and over again for days on end. I've complained about this so many times in the past, to no avail. Anyone who uses the 'Newest' page as their HN landing page will know what I mean.
It's easy to think of Deming as "old fashioned" or irrelevant in the modern world (and yes, some people talk about him like a cult figure), but his ideas are fundamentally practical, enduring, and flexible. The Deming Institute over the last few years has shifted from "preserving Deming's teachings" to "teaching folks how to use Deming in their businesses/organizations now."

I recommend visiting www.deming.org, and also checking out DemingNEXT (https://deming.org/learn/demingnext/). It's a new, unique way to learn Deming online with interactive courses, case studies, "what would you do" scenarios, examples, articles, podcast episodes, and more. (You can get a free 14-day trial to check it out.)

I also recommend watching "why Deming, why now" video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7zCD2w3u9Ms&t=3s.

Full disclosure - I've worked for The Deming Institute for just over a year now and I've been blown away by how simple but powerful his ideas are.

Yeah, this. I don't have any data to support this, but when I was in school, MOST people didn't have close to full-time jobs. I had a job where I probably worked 10 hours during the week at night and some full 8 hour shifts on the weekends. Most of the people I went to school with (and I would assume, maybe wrongly, that most people in better schools than I went to) didn't work AT ALL while they were in school, it was just those of us less than wealthy folk who actually had to work to have spending money and money to pay for books etc. I don't think my work load was overly demanding, but I was a Comp Sci major, fwiw.
This isn't true.

In 2017 appear.in published some numbers. They saw ~15% were not able to do P2P. https://medium.com/@fippo/what-kind-of-turn-server-is-being-...

Reading your stackoverflow link my guess is that you aren't using STUN. A P2P connection can't be established without a NAT hole punch.

Also if possible I would avoid the terms `Full-cone NAT` and `Symmetric NAT` they don't do a good job of describing what is actually happening. NAT Mapping/NAT Filtering is the best way to describe it. I wrote a little bit about it here [0]. To see what type of NAT you have try stun-nat-behaviour[1]

Your definition of “incite violence” might be other people asking why they need to remove their child’s penis.

Your definition of “mob mentality” might be a group of Asian students asking why they’re being discriminated against in college admissions.

Your “probably false narrative” might be someone committing the sin of saying that covid leaked from a Chinese lab.

The list goes on and on.
>claiming the vaccines did not stop the spread (now proven accurate)

The opposite was evidentially proven, multiple times. Vaccines stopped the virus transmitting from infected individuals in many if not most interactions:

https://www.reuters.com/article/factcheck-pfizer-vaccine-tra...

If you're saying it doesn't 100% eliminate the chance of infection or transmission, no one who knew anything about vaccines ever claimed that.

(As for the lab leak hypothesis, there's still only circumstantial evidence, not enough to conclusively priviledge it above the zoonotic hypothesis. There was even less evidence at the time, and anyone discussing it was only serving to distract from the conversation to blame China, a country that was already doing more than any other country to stop the spread (arguably too much)).
Most industrially baked breads contain sugar. Typically 2-5g per slice. I haven't really had industrial bread without sugar, but it doesn't surprise me that the sugar is required for taste. "Good" bread has long ferment periods that gives the bread a lot of time to develop flavor. It's probably much faster to cut the long ferment periods and use sugar for flavor instead.
Yes, disaster happens. But usually not all at once. I discovered that all of the places I have lived so far were clearcut in the late 1800's/early 1900's. When I say clearcut, I'm not talking about the size of a neighborhood or city, I mean areas that are geographically significant - areas you can see from space, which encapsulated hundreds or thousands of distinct ecosystems. That's a much less frequent disaster and one that is very difficult if not impossible for an ecosystem to fully recover from.

And homes could be built much more efficiently than they are (dense mixed use multifamily over single family residences), and at least in the US the claims of a housing shortage may not be entirely accurate. There are 140M housing units in the US and 120M families, according to the 2020 census. There's a difference between a lack of homes and lack of homes in places people want to live.

I tend to agree that industrial production of lab-grown timber is not viable today. Hard to compete with the cost of soil and sun when relying on processed nutrients and energy for lighting and climate control. But it's an exciting development toward something that could someday be better than plastic.

It isn't that just anyone can demand a platform. This is usually if a debate club/similar invites someone to speak, and then some other body/higher authority steps in who disapproves of the speaker.

Ten+ years ago this happened with Nick Griffin at Durham Union Society. NUS bused in people from other universities to protest/stop the debate, successfully. A few weeks later he appeared on BBC Question Time and was utterly demolished, leading to the BNP being utterly wiped out in the election shortly afterwards.

I believe the poster above was suggesting the client browser, not the user of the client, could assist.

So Safari knows that a user is under 13 (due to information entered at sign up by guardians) and will block the user from creating an account if a page has the appropriate HTTP header. Or iOS could do the same for app signups.
Wait till this guy discovers Lisp, self-modifying code, or eval()! Code and data are exactly the same thing, just stuff in memory!

The problem is that infinite malleability is cool, but a lot of tasks do not benefit from it. Static typing, on the other hand, keeps you from making a lot of dumb mistakes. Static typing lets you spend time on your logic, whereas with dynamic typed languages like JS or Python, you spend time on logic AND on typos, misremembering function arguments and or positions, etc. The thing is, most routines can only really accept one or two types, and only very rarely does one want to treat data as code.

A word processor, or a sorting algorithm, or banking library have no need to modify their code; in fact, doing so is likely to break something. The sorting algorithm would benefit from polymorphism, but the others would not. You cannot render an image the same way as text. And the banking library had better be adding integers, not strings or even floats. However, all programs will benefit from the compiler saying "the function doesn't accept this type" or "this variable doesn't actually exist".

This guy should find a job maintaining a complex Python server, he'll learn why people like static types. Nothing like digging through a bunch of code to find, "ah this looks like the function I need, what does it take? Oh 'connection'. What's that?" Static typing at least forces a minimum of documentation. Or you make a change, server runs but still not fixed. Then you notice it's not even doing what it used to do, but no errors or anything. After tearing your hair out, you discover you swapped two letters in a variable, which caused a syntax error exception loading the module, which was silently discarded by the dynamic loading code.
If an open-source model gets DMCA'd, then getting a copy becomes a hassle. This does not entirely stop things - people still have massive collections of Nintendo ROMs and downloaded films, but it's work to get it running in a way that, say the Stable Diffusion tool that Clip Studio Paint just announced is not.

A real open-sourced model trained on images that were explicitly licensed for such uses would be interesting. It would cost money but it would also not be hiding a ton of its actual cost by training it on images whose creator never imagined that "being dumped into a vast dataset" would be a thing that would happen, as well as images that were fine in their original context as "fair use" but got sucked in by the web crawlers feeding the dataset. You want to train an image-generating machine on my work? Ask my fucking permission and if I say "pay me" then you either negotiate a price we can both live with, or you do not put it in your dataset.

I do not accept your reality. Sue 'em all until you've gotta train your own damn datasets, or buy ones that have worked out the proper licensing. If Photoshop can be made to refuse to scan currency, then these things can be made to be fair to the artists whose shoulders they rest upon.
Don't follow the hype and trust your own experiences and tooling. Tailwind can be good, but I get the sense that many commenters (not in this thread, however) may be paid actors in order to boost its mindshare.
This post seems to conflate runtime metaprogramming (and maybe operator overloading and proxies too) with dynamic typing. You can have runtime metaprogramming, reflection, and reified types with static type systems.

The required (& wasted) energy - both for the initial liquefaction, and to keep it liquid - are only the beginnings of the pain of dealing with LH.

For starters: hydrogen boils at -250C, vs. oxygen at -180C. So a lowish-pressure tank of LH can naturally "condense" liquid oxygen (and nitrogen) from the atmosphere if there are flaws in the tank's insulation.

...and the rule of thumb is that one charcoal briquette soaked in liquid oxygen has roughly the explosive power of one stick of dynamite. (Unlike dynamite, the LOX-soaked briquette can detonate with neither apparent cause nor warning. And this effect is hardly unique to charcoal briquettes. Anything porous and combustible will do.)
Yeah dogs learn really fast that what's happening on TV is not real, they will from then on just ignore it since it is irrelevant to them.

However I assume all that is needed for them to start interacting is some relevant feedback. Example: First train the dog to have a positive association with a sound, then show them that this sound is produced if they interact with the TV.

In the article they do this, but go one step further, the game dispenses treats if they are correct. I'm sure a dog will learn the game easily once you clear the initial hurdle.

There are at least three parts to this. One is the science. The science should have initially been saying "We don't know", and then "We think X, because Y, with Z level of certainty", with Z getting more and more certain as time went on.

Second is the public health aspects of this. They had to say "Do U, V, and W" before the science was clear that those were the correct things to do. (Why "had to"? Because if they said "We can't tell you what to do", first there would have been panic, and second they would have missed a chance to get ahead of it if they guessed right. So they went with their best guess, which is not an unreasonable thing to do.)

But the third thing is politics and reputation. They went with their best guess, but they didn't admit that it was a guess. They wanted everyone to do it, and so they talked like they were certain, even though they didn't have the data to be certain. When some of their guesses were wrong, they took a reputational hit, because they had sounded like they were certain. Then, compounding the problem, even after the evidence started to come in they stuck to their original advice to try to avoid taking the damage to their reputation, and just wound up making themselves look like buffoons. They damaged the reputation of public health for decades by how they handled this.
