I mean, I think there are going to be a lot of people who _don't_ care about Saint Car's antics, but do care about Saint Car making the site unusable. And killing third party clients will make it unusable for many people.

Personally, my last straw was the journalists, but if I hadn't cared about that or other ridiculous Musk behaviours, _this_ would still drive me away; I haven't really used Twitter by any means besides Tweetbot in about a decade.

They're essentially different issues. The journalists, and the Fauci stuff, and the unbanning of various Nazis, are all, essentially, content/moderation issues, whereas this is a usability issue.
Many people say they've little memory, but they just actually lack focus.
The simplest explanation is that there is regular matter which we fail to detect. Not weird, given the huge distances involved - there almost assuredly is mass that we didn't detect (e.g. planets).

The point where fairy matter comes in, is that we can guess how bad we could be at not detecting matter. Basically, regular matter that we didn't observe can't explain everything - we would've observed it otherwise.
The bottom table contains the memgraph mgBench (G6 2x Xeon X5650) "hot run, medium, isolated" throughput results:

The "By" columns compares those results to the new test suite on the ~10y newer cpu.
This would be incredible, especially with the thousands of unique characters games often have nowadays. Imagine every NPC having a unique voice, and the ability to dynamically respond to the players?

Damn that would do a ton for immersion!
GP did not misrepresent the comment. It’s clear as day. “We should look to China, where they executed a corrupt CEO.”

I can glean no other message from the comment. What you’re describing would require quite a bit of mental gymnastics on my part.

I think you’re ignoring what the comment says in clear plain English and interpreting it in a way you think is less controversial.
In 65 million years? Nah.
i disagree that it was against the guidelines - after all, it did generate some interesting intellectual comments.

either way, your home your rules, so whatever.
(which, ironically, confirms my original point...)
Spent $150 on 8 chickens from a reputable farm, which included their starter kit (heater, feed, feeder, water, etc.). Was overkill but they made it super easy. Could have saved some money on Tractor Supply chickens but also got cool breeds and all great layers.

$600 on the largest coop Tractor Supply sold. It is just barely big enough for all the chickens but it does work.

The rest on reinforcement hardware since I have hawks and foxes all over my property. Metal mesh and wood to reinforce all around the coop. Also things like sand to fill the bottom of the coop, anchors to keep it down, etc.

Over time I spent a bit more to replace some bullshit hardware of the coop.

I could have saved some by building the coop from scratch but also this one has a nice design that I wouldn’t have come up with on my own without seeing how the chickens actually behave.
That is cool. Will try that. But the type information the IDE provides to me is sufficient even without TypeScript. So, back again to the question — is TypeScript worth it?
Natural monopolies should be centrally planned, because in this case the market competition is between nations on the basis of which one is an efficient and therefore cost effective place to operate. Companies don't set up competing mail rooms in the same building, that would be insane. It's less obvious at a national scale but economically just as silly to try and introduce competition where it would not naturally exist. The same principals also apply to railways, water, roads and phone lines.
It's as simple as "entity does bad things and faces no consequences == system is broken."
I'd say traditional layaway was far more risky. You'd put money away with the shop and if that shop went bankrupt before you paid your last installment, you'd be out of the money and not get the item either.
Nothing is stopping you from building those components yourself. Or, you can pay the author who’s already done the work for you.

I think it’s a great way to monetise an open source project.
I liked it but found it meandered into dead-ends a bit too much.
"egregious example" is unfair because there was and will be a huge effort in comparing different options. Ofc it's biased. Every single benchmark is biased towards something, but take a look at the specifications and what has actually being compared.

100% agree that everyone should run their own benchmark, that's not possible to do from the vendor perspective, it's just not possible for every single usage. Public benchmarks are something to look into if you want to get cheap info on how different vendors might do for you. Huge but is that it's just a guide, not the only piece of info you should base your decision on.
That would be epic
A lot of people think that computer science is just a branch of maths. But when I was doing my doctorate, I was a computer scientist, and my three supervisors were a mathematician, an engineer, and a meteorologist. The difference between us was much more than the stuff we knew - it was the way that we thought, and therefore approached a problem. Supervision meetings were interesting - it very much felt like four people speaking four different languages.

On a very broad level (and I'll get loads of people disagreeing with this, because both mathematics and computer science divide further into different specialities), mathematics is primarily about proving logical truths, whereas computer science is about managing complexity. That's a massive cognitive difference, even if many of the problems the two fields tackle are the same.
That's just kind of a lame workaround that doesn't tackle the actual issue though.

Imagine if in-game voice chat automatically converted a % of guys voices into girls voices, so they would start getting harassed, realize how awful that is, and then over time stop doing it.
The top thread emphasises the problem of digital identity. It's the question of how we can be sure that the digital credentials with which voters participate have been allocated fairly, like having fake passports printed, impersonating dead people or voting in place of those who often don't come to vote.

> I have yet to see something that make me envision the possibility it could be possible.

Remote electronic voting is a very hard problem to crack. The systems that could have some merit have fallen out from academic endeavours. I recommend looking at this paper could help to envision the possibility:

Why should you have to look for the name of an application to see if it's focused? If that's true, the GUI is a failure.

Knowing which app has focus does not require the entire system to be limited to a single menu. It simply requires proper visual feedback to SHOW the user which window (and attached menu) is active.
Most lawmakers are sponsored by employers of some kind.

It was even possible to generate the pulses by hand, by flashing the hangup pogos.

Very useful to make outgoing calls from phones which had their dials locked/removed ... if a bit painful when the number one wished to call had an '9' or a '0' in it.
Ok I think it's fair to say you're either full of shit or the world leading experts in TTS.
Ask HN: Do you hate software engineering but love programming?
I have come to a realization that I don't really enjoy Software Engineering(& the processes that it comes with) but I do love programming & solving problems.

Finding and fixing bugs is a lot of fun. Incidence response is a lot of fun. Hacking on new projects is a lot of fun. Writing unit tests is fun too.

Refactoring, rewriting, sprint, agile, rearchitecting things etc aren't that fun. I like a few languages and I am not too keen on learning new paradigms or languages unless I have to. I'd rather get to value now by making something that just works(and is adequately tested) than engineer something thats future proof but takes longer to get out.

What are some good jobs for a person like this?
Good luck OCR-ing images and videos, though. Twitter isn't just text.

Did you really fail? I bet you can make an HTML web page with some images, text and links on it. Would it be the best looking, most useful site ever? Of course not. Would it be useful to someone? Absolutely.

Most concepts in programming took me years to pick up. Many things are not easy, even with good teachers and lots of effort. Maybe now you can see why it's a lucrative job.
Just if you want to be a hostage, they could change a don't did it.
It's a wrong direction to start with: better learn separated behaviors (js vs css vs html) instead of mixing them together in a single "code".

You'll also have better tooling to help you.
No, not at all. Learn vanilla JS and manipulate the DOM directly. This allows you to understand most other frameworks later on.
It is one thing to identify a mechanism and show how in operation it must produce the numbers seen. It is entirely different to invent a name for a presumed mechanism, with no hint of how it happened to come to the numbers seen.
DC links are usually built to better control frequency in grids.

Yes I already thought that it would be possible to extract the certificates including the password despite obfuscation.

The documentation you‘ve linked is quite interesting - didn’t heard about this before, thanks! I also found that Cloudflare is currently adding support for device attestation: https://blog.cloudflare.com/private-attestation-token-device...
unfortunately it’s still in a closed beta.
But that seems the way to go I guess.

Out of curiosity could you provide me with some more details regarding how obfuscation does not help when storing the password for the certificate inside the source code?
Wow. There were 75 articles on the page when I read it. As a former journalist, I would be curious to know what “fact-checked” actually means. I would also be curious to compare these “fact-checked” articles to direct output from ChatGPT. If the latter is already producing content that’s close to equal in factual accuracy, then why would anyone read these articles rather than just have a conversation with ChatGPT?
I don’t want to sound harsh, but saying Javascript is a simpler version of Java just tells me you have never used Java seriously.

It’s like saying Korean is a simpler version of Spanish.

Yes, Java and Javascript are both programming languages, but they don’t even share the same paradigm.

You might be confusing the motivation that led to the creation of Javascript with the actual implementation.

Having said that, I have used Java professionally for more than 7 years, then I switched to mainly Javascript, and later to Typescript, and I’m never going back. I agree with your overall point.
I don't see how JSX has anything to do with processes, much less concurrency.
> If you could simply type into a box and speak with an American accent, it would be really hard to get caught.

Not really. If they say "kindly do something", they are Indian scammers.
I don’t really see how that’s a hard disagree.

European regulations are not oriented towards consumers nor are they “farting around”.

These are far reaching regulations on investments. They impact literally everything. It’s going to be hard to do something if you can’t get money to do it.

But these are not hard choices or libertarian hell. That’s just a bit more regulations.

Sure, mining coal won’t be profitable anymore, people won’t be able to buy diesel cars and both flying and meat will become more expensive. It’s definitely a shift in how people live and probably a downgrade in some aspect regarding quality of life. But it’s a relatively painless one.
If we're being so pedantic, you have misspelt 'Fediverse'.
Never seen that be a convention here, and what makes you think this is legacy? who decides that? Is Linux legacy too?
i) You could say the same thing for the underlying language: EcmaScript has evolved so much in recent years that new packages may use runtime language features that are not supported by an older interpreter runtime.

ii) You could argue that types themselves can be documentation, if named correctly. A JS library without types but great documentation is vulnerable to implementation changes that are not reflected in the documentation. TypeScript at least binds the internal assumptions on function arguments and object types to how they should be used, with a tool to check that there is a match at the call site. Throw in some runtime parsers (eg: Zod) to enforce correct input data at runtime, and from which types are inferred, and you are golden.

iii) Agreed, 100%. Some people are making tools around that, see Matt Pocock's Total Typescript error explainer extension in VSCode: mattpocock.ts-error-translator

iv) Agreed again. Transpilation itself can be fast with modern tooling such as SWC or esbuild (or derivatives). Type checking is still the main bottleneck, though people like Donny (@kdy1dev) are working on a Rust-based alternative.

Because I assumed you'd understand the depreciation of the asset is a lot less than the appreciation on your investments or cash that you can do in the other scenarios. The entire point is its offset. Also that's not a business asset description, thats just normal life??? WTF buys a camera and doesn't offset some of the cost doing their mates wedding? You're not thinking rationally if you think using the credit system is comparable to a roulette wheel. You control its use. You can just clear the debt if its interest free, its not grown or changed. The credit system is designed around returns for people who can't afford something at all. It's utterly predatory, but if you financially are entirely above the risk of paying interest its just a lot of flexibility in preserving your cash capital.
I never knew him but as a daily Arch user, for a decade now, I am deeply saddened by this loss. Makes you think about how much you rely on people you never met.
I believe you're 100% wrong. There are probably hundreds if not thousands of bugs in the old code. Just because they haven't been found yet doesn't mean they're not there.

If a handful of developers at SerenityOS can write a web browser (including Javascript and CSS support) from scratch in a year or so why can't Mozilla rewrite the FireFox engine in Rust?
I agree. It seems strange that they would make an official version and then not add it to the official JS package manager.

It seems like Chrome is paying them for the “deliverable” of a JS version, but the spec did not include “npm installable”.
GGP specifically called out the (alleged lack of) support in linux distributions
Nope, it doesn't make sense as you mentioned. But imagine that you were an investment bank with almost infinite cheap money has nowhere to go, you will probably put it into whatever dumb idea out there as long as there is a clear exit strategy. It's virtually exploiting those financially vulnerable ones by providing heavy incentive to lure them into using BNPL and bump up the share price so they can exit with profit. Even if it did not work out, it just a failed investment that can be written off.

But for those desperate users, as long as they can get what they want now, they don't really care whether if they can repay at all.

Thanks for sharing, I'm definitely going to dig into it more.
There's definitely a benefit to placing a decent telescope outside the asteroid belt. From Earth, we get a lot of light reflected from the Sun from dust orbiting somewhere between Earth and 2 AU from the Sun, which pollutes our space images - it's called the Zodiacal Light [0]. A telescope outside this light pollution would be able to see faint objects much more clearly and easily than Webb.

This might be an unpopular opinion, but to me, this is just an unsolved problem. Between polyrepos and monorepos, I’m not convinced either of them is a clear winner. I’ve used both structures and as a project grows, I dislike them both for different reasons.
what issues did you have? Were you tracking macros?
It's worth noting that we've been here before; back in 2012 Twitter attempted to curtail third party clients (albeit in a far more organised, less haphazard way): https://thenextweb.com/news/twitter-4

Eventually, they stepped back from the brink, presumably after realising that it was a phenomenally stupid idea (while the fraction of Twitter users using third party clients is likely small, anyone who's anyone uses a third party client; this will vastly disproportionately hit influential users). We'll see if new leadership learns the same lesson.
I mean the answer here is actually pretty simple and it doesn't require leadership to be ethical, just to take a long-term view.

If you find out your product is bad for the environment, for people's health, etc. then you go and quietly do R&D on the solution. You know shit is going to hit the fan sooner or later so you get ahead of it. Then when it starts to become a PR problem you double down on the alternative you came up with and you start publicizing it. With any luck you'll be ahead of your competitors and able to transition to the new thing better and faster than they do. You don't really have to be a moral paragon to think this way, you certainly don't need to die on any hills, you just have to be smart enough to hedge your bets and think about where your profits may come from in 25 years, instead of just in the next 5. These are not resource strapped companies, they are companies that can afford to do generational R&D and whose executives lacked vision.
The arguments in the thread are that aligning the product as built and architected with the goals of the company is actually engineering work and not PM work.
I've been meaning to go into SNES or Sega Genesis homebrew for a while now but can't seem to find the time. Good to hear that others are doing something fun though. :)
But those are needless comparisons that make no sense to even mention. Of course the performance profile is different. That was the original point, if I understand correctly.

Absolutely this. I am experiencing a polyrepo setup of 254 repositories. The level of productivity loss is at a scale I don't think can be adequately describe in words.
The USA has everything it needs to back up that claim to being a superpower among which we can count:

- being a top tier tech power

- being a top tier culture exporter

- being the reserve currency for the world (the USA is THE monetary superpower)

- having good relationships with other major powers which amplify it's own

- having the best military force projection and having alliances which further magnify that force projection

Like it or not, the USA has what it takes to back it up. And I agree, the USA has been and is behaving morally disastrous in several ways. One does not excuse the other. No ones military imperialism is excusable.

But in addition to that, I am saying, the Russian leadership is braindead because they failed to accurately appraise their chances and continue to do so. They thought they could take Ukraine in a few weeks and when that proved wrong they did not recalibrate their expectations. At any time until the point they officially declared annexation, they could have declared mission accomplished and the internal propaganda machine would have done it's job. Now they are stuck, unable to make progress and unable to backtrack. Such stupidity is far more disastrous than the villainy of imperialism. This is Cipolla's 5'th law of stupidity and its corollary applied: "A stupid person is the most dangerous person in existence." and "A stupid person is thus more dangerous than a bandit.". Also, a relevant quote by the same author: "The ability to hurt of a stupid person depends on the […] position of power or authority he occupies in the society."

China, compared to Russia, does in fact have some actual capability to support its ambitions. Will they be stupid in the future and overestimate themselves? So far they are somewhat cautious but we will see.
JSX gives you the appearance of HTML with a boat-load of unexpected rules/exceptions to learn further hidden behind a compile step. Because of the rules, it's harder to onboard and riddled with complexity. To top it off, being XML-like it's hard to read and write. I miss the days when the docs had a toggle to show it as simple, trinary functions. If JavaScript had better function application syntax (like spaces), it'd be easier to reason about and read/write.

I write types everywhere. Without types, I'm in the blind. So yeah, don't look at motifs why some library maintainer has TS errors in their declaration files. I'm a full-stack TS developer, and I can count on my one hand fingers the times when some library had type problems. And if they had, I would fix them with my own declarations. But how do you code without types? It brings so much clarity to everything. Judging by your questions, you haven't worked with TS a bit. Or you like sensational HN titles, drawing in all the kids lol
