I think a better way of handling this is creating layers of abstraction between data storage and code.

Annotate whether this is a hot cache or cold storage, and be able to flip out the infrastructure.

ETL frameworks support this. Probably should be more widely used (web devs, etc).

>And to be more focused on humans. If you weigh a city's needs vs that of field mice and you side with the activists who pretend to speak for the field mice, you've lost sight of what's important.

If you side with the humans in cities, and the only environmental laws you have are for their protection, you will screw your rural neighbors something awful. Countries already under-fund and often abuse the rights of rural communities and their citizens, which make up over 25% of the European people. Sure, the 75% in urban areas are able to out-vote the 25% rural population, but that doesn't make screwing over your neighbors a good thing.
Talk about a ridiculous straw man... logic like that is why I don't take democrats or left-wing politics seriously anymore.
I sometimes think about sitting down and properly learning English. But for some reason, I think that would be a waste of time.

The issue is that my mistake stems from my carelessness, not from my knowledge of English grammar. One of the most common mistake I make is forgetting to use sub-three letter words to my sentences like - to, is, and, or etc. Now the issue is that, this IS 80% of what English grammar stands for. My writing style is kinda keyword focused, if that makes any sense to anyone.

The internet as a whole has become quite tolerant and the spaces I dwell usually don't criticize me for my bad grammar. My keyword focused statements gets my ideas across. Also I found that, if I cared too much about something I end up not expressing it. So the only things I talk about are my impromptu ideas which are jumbled and careless.

For me it's the fact that so many of these commenters seem to think they've come up with something special, found some secret idea. That's completely false. Most physicists aren't very happy with dark matter as a theory (especially since the failure of the big direct particle searches). So the commenters are trying to convince the professionals of something most of them already believe. It's silly.

There are organizations, even large ones, that prefer to work this week. Trying to set the maximum number of team members to 6 people including a PM and a designer.

You don't exactly need GPT for, that, few assholes if left unmoderated can make any social place terrible.

And society doesn't exactly equip people to deal with that, schools don't exactly learn how to converse or deal with people that assume you're "the evil" and refuse to even entertain the though to think about their own argument, let alone someone's else. Hell, we are barely taught how to have normal problem-solving conversation correctly (or at least that's what I reason from amount of times asking few "why's" about someone's idea made them immediately realize it's not as good as they thought)

Umm no, I don't feel like it. I try to gather around as much information I can, so if there is a topic I don't know, I just learn it. I don't think too much about "how I don't know about that", because there are areas in CS that I'm good at, and others are good at other areas. Like someone is good at algorithmic questions, but bad at design. Don't overthink it.

I clicked and started to read the titles of the episodes and none of them was interesting for me. Different business names and descriptions...

It comes across as an obsession with image-management, rather than with skill-development or something similarly practical and useful. While there's some need for taking care of one's appearance (poor personal hygiene, for example, is unpleasant for the people around you), putting this at the top of the list of things to worry about doesn't seem very healthy.

It's also a characteristic of con artists of the SBF/Holmes etc. variety. Patrick Boyle's latest video, "Why We Trust Fraudsters!" explores this in some depth:

There are only ~350 million in the US. The others are elsewhere and don’t suffer the same weird banking issues we do. That said, I still pay electronically, I just do it manually. I go to my banking site and enter the amount on my bill, which I’ve checked to make sure it’s accurate.

I don't think that image beats out the Caucasian white male from the US even within Latin America.

The hierarchy of the racial dating game is still consistent.

Also the situation in the US is not simply false impressions by hollywood casting. Bro, hollywood casting is reactionary to the situation in the states. It's much much deeper than that.

Asian females born in the united states... a huge number of them are Racist against their own race. Many date white people, and many refuse to date asian males. This is much more then some false perception.

Asian Females have very very in depth and realistic perceptions about asian males given the fact they have Fathers and brothers that they grew up with. The choice they make is done NOT because of false perception projected by hollywood or whatever.

You have to get scientific and realistic about this. White people fucking asians easily talk about this behind closed doors, but as an Asian... it's much harder to see reality BECAUSE of IDENTITY.
Didn’t self modifying code just die out when cache came around in the late eighties and early nineties? We used it a lot on C64 and Amiga (until A1200 with 68020 CPU).

Pretty sure it's just anti-American signalling/globalist cultural imperialism. Asian/8601 date format makes a lot more "logical" sense, but nothing beats what you grew up using, at least for me, in a non-technical context.
I have listened to your podcast occasionally and I really enjoyed it. I can’t really say what you can do to improve it as I personally think it was very good. I guess there are just a lot of podcasts out there and maybe it was an issue of discovery. What I listen to depends on my mood but when I was looking for a development related podcast yours was definitely one I would go to. Sorry if this is not a very helpful comment but I just wanted to let you know I appreciated your work.

> Are you actually interested in being right or do you just take pleasure from feeling right?

Yes great point. I have experienced this myself in the past and it takes effort not to do this.

> Since we make the effort to communicate, we clearly decided on cooperation instead of conflict.

Yes - I think our first exchange seemed to veer slightly towards conflict (for me anyway), but then it took a turn to a more shared understanding.

> So it's down to everyone to have a honest conversation about how stupid they are on individual questions

Yes agree. Stupidity is dangerous [0] and we need to be better equipped to detect our own stupidity and then self-correct.

That's why I think 2 key things for avoiding spiraling into tyrannical systems are a) fight poverty b) better education systems that teaches more about critical thinking and to recognise the tactics self-serving people use to gain power. Easier said than done of course.

The elephant in the room is the fascist problem.

Before Musk, one of the metrics by which Twitter would evaluate whether to ban someone was: how many trans people will die if we allow this person to keep tweeting? (A competing metric was, regrettably, how big a PR black eye will the far right give us if we ban them, which led to people being banned more slowly than maybe they should have.)

It's a social benefit to muzzle fascists. Fascist ideology plays to our deepest, most visceral hatreds and fears, which means it spreads like wildfire. "A lie can run halfway around the world while the truth is still putting on its shoes" and all that. And when considering whether American standards of "free speech" are universally applicable, do bear in mind that the USA is a shithole banana republic with a far worse fascist problem than most of the rest of the OECD.
There's two problems with integer overflows: 1) undefined behavior (ugh), and 2) any defined behavior that is anything other than a) some behavior that you specified as desired in code, or b) cause an -and force you to check for- error (or exception, ugh).

Of these two, (1) is easily the worst, but where (1) is solved then (2) becomes the worse problem (naturally, being the only problem left).

I worked there for a year, before they fired me after I was diagnosed with Narcolepsy: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33765309

During my stint, I completed over 40 engagements. I never failed to find less than at least one medium severity flaw on any of those.

Of course, you wouldn’t know, since you showed up a grand total of ~two times. One was to brag about how Sam Altman called you up to offer you a slot at YC for Starfighter, another was to ask Wally for the rights to Microcorruption.

Meanwhile, I was the one in the field, doing the work, alongside Andy and the rest of the team. We spent a huge portion of our time writing. I’ll hop on a computer and describe it in more detail.

It’s funny that you declare “No one spends 50% of their time writing” like you’re the sole authority on the matter, across all the pentesting shops in the world. You didn’t even get it right at your own company.

Saying that I worked there “for like a minute” is cute, but not reflective of reality. Shall I go into more detail about my experiences? We can compare notes, and see where your experience diverged.
"SBF" and "Bankman-Freid" are the same number of syllables, and the name is unique enough that only Sam comes up when you search the last name.

That said, I don't really care about the story and "SBF" is easier to remember, particularly compared to spelling "Freid."

> That would make sense to me. I wouldn't even be surprised if some registrants are unable to pay in USD or if they get charged exorbitant fees for foreign exchange.

To clarify, I wasn't suggesting that the registrants in foreign countries pay in USD and potentially pay forex fees, merely that the underlying USD price be exposed to them so they are aware of what the future renewal price will look like as the exchange rate shifts. They'd still always be paying in local currency.

Exactly this. There is no mystical hn user that has a PhD in every single discipline.

I feel you first need to learn how to be competent, then you need to learn how to be incompetent.
By that I mean recognize your areas of deficiency, know how and when to ask for external support without being ashamed about it (being competent _somewhere_ helps with that). I don't know if this is meta-cognition, wisdom, or something else.

While you're still struggling on the first step it's easy to get tripped on the second one.

It was at the "fashionably late" example where I started wondering if this chronicler of human behavior was themselves human, since arriving late to parties has very little to do with status and much more to do with not wanting to be one of the uncomfortable first or second guests. Late arrival is an expectation at ordinary parties, not a privilege.
The bigger problem with hydrogen is making a container it doesn't escape so much faster than Helium as to negate the extra lift advantage.

You can let it leak out, but then you need to carry extra compressed gas above what is already needed for the same issue with helium.

You can build a tighter, multi-layered envelope, but then you're adding weight and quickly negate the extra lift. This is the category your tens of thousands of sacs idea falls in. The problem there is that you are massively increasing the surface area through which the hydrogen can slip out. You have to keep in mind, to a single hydrogen atom, everything we consider "solid" looks more like a fishing net for catching a whale. Our best designs so far usually involve layering and offsetting those nets so as to at least slow the atoms down as they path through the mesh.
Crypto is traditional scam and quantum computing is funding/academia scam. You don't have to work about those.
I think less fuel is exactly what the goal is and not to mention types of fuel if you could move 100 tons across the Pacific ocean on electric turbines powered by solar you'd certainly could amortization the speed of delivery by just scaling the pipeline with more airship.

The unknown is the lifting gas helium is expensive and hydrogen can leak and go boom. But the speed does not necessarily matter if the cost is much lower and sustainable
> Couldn't we just as easily say the same about EM or any of the other forces?

We've tested other forces in more regimes than gravity because gravity is so weak, but in principle, if predictions of those theories mismatched observations to the same extent as gravity, then we absolutely should be questioning those theories too.

> They keep having to add parameters to MOND to make it fit what we see and currently attribute to dark matter, like the bullet cluster.

I don't know why people keep saying this like cold dark matter model doesn't do this. LCDM has been refuted many times if this is your criterion. The review paper I cited shows numerous examples of parameterization and curve fitting for LCDM.

Last week I allowed it to "upgrade" to Win 11 22H2. Part of the upgrade involved silently resetting a heap of my default apps. When the upgrade was done, Firefox was no longer my default browser, it was changed to Edge. Also, the default apps for PDF, JPG, PNG, TXT, MKV, and probably others that I haven't yet discovered, were set to their MS equivalent apps.

Microsoft, this was not a nice thing to do to a user.
I’m in the US for what that’s worth. What you’ve posited assumes you can get someone on the phone which is no small task these days. Also, keep in mind that something like 60% of Americans are a single surprise $500 expense away from going into debt[0]. (Luckily I’m not one of them.) But generally, it takes weeks to months to get your money back if something like this happens, and that assumes everything goes well, which it rarely does.

All JITs use self-modifying code, and JITs are more popular now than even 15 years ago. Although you might make a distinction between modifying code that has already executed once, from the perspective of instruction/data consistency on a CPU it doesn’t really matter.
Does that ultimately matter? Proton/WINE etc. create a compatibility layer for Windows on Linux, and WSL/Cygwin etc. creates a compatibility layer for Linux on Windows. If one is cheaper and offers less bullshit, the other one is threatened. It's a moat coming down.

Do they need to react though? Surely there's some sort of kinetic barrier spell they could use. Just checked and there's protego, a shield charm that blocks other spells and physical objects. A high mobility special forces wizard squad would have one person responsible for casting protego while all the others use avada kedavra on everything that moves. They could also use some sort of explosive spell to destroy cover, walls, obstacles and fortifications. All while shrugging off bullets, shrapnel and pretty much anything muggles could throw at them short of a nuclear missile.

The difference is crucial. With these Sum types a variable of type Option<Dog> / Dog | null / Dog? might be a dog, but a variable of type Dog is definitely a dog and the language has both of those types.

Languages which just have one nullable type here like Go must use their "might be a dog" type to represent things which definitely are a dog, meaning either you write paranoid checks everywhere or you might screw up - and it's no wonder there are more bugs as a result.

Cars are absolutely depreciating assets.

However a $70k car generally has a much better set of class leading accident avoidance & safety features than a $25k car which will generally be minimum legally required for compliance. A new car has a much different safety profile than a 10 or 20 year old car. Watching crash videos on YouTube is very illuminating as to how far we've come even versus a car from 2000.

Modern advanced cars will warn you about rear & front cross traffic, actively keep you from driving off the road if you fall asleep, emergency brake for obstacles, keep you from changing lanes into a car in your blind spot, and many other things that were pretty unheard of 10-20 years ago. My car even flashes lights and beeps at me if I am opening the door and it detects oncoming cars or bikes.

A $500k renovation of a home is usually financed and adds less than the $500k of value to the resale price to the homes (lets say, $400k to be generous), while costing north of $750k by the time all the payments are made. So $100-350k of waste, conservatively.
