As I commented below, it's incredibly striking exactly because it betrays a complete unawareness of the logic behind these systems.

These aren't just funny codes, there is a whole mindset behind it. ASCII being grouped in chunks of 32. Being able to flip between uppercase and lowercase by flipping a bit. The history of upper 8-bit codepages in DOS.

And I didn't even comment on the fact that your "byte" uses 16-bit notation.

Don't ruin my recommendations
> This poster that has just only learned of the word “woke” according to them

I only just learned about how the term is used as an insult in your language. Again, I'm not from your country, so we don't necessarily use it the same way here (as an imported word), capiche?

But apart from the word itself, we do have definitely imported the same ideology here, as well as the crazies who take it to an extreme. I'm not saying they're like you, but I'm not saying they're not, either.

(We have many right-wing crazies too, mind you! I'm not saying only the lefties have crazies)

So again, I used "woke" as a shorthand for the ideology. It's a word I have seen used many many times before, just like any other English word you can pick from any of my comments. The term "woke" is used in contexts such as this one to describe this type of ideology, in many countries including the US.

Hell, look at how this word is used in the Vice article this HN post is about. Does that mean the Vice article is insulting all woke people, since it's using that word and that word is now an insult?

Or perhaps is it that "woke" is not always used as an insult, but it has been (and still continues to be) simply used to describe this ideology, despite of the negative connotations it has apparently acquired recently?

This is something you would likely understand if you were actually trying to make any effort whatsoever.

Does all of this mean I can't educate someone on what the word means (i.e. its usual meaning), especially when I have access to sources of truth about the definition of the word in your language? A word, again, that has been exported to many other countries and languages... like wifi, sandwich or shampoo.

Note that I'm not insisting on using the term "woke". I can see that it triggers some people, so I'm not likely to use it as much in the future. I only care about discussing the ideology itself, I don't really care what the hell it's actually called, be it in your language or any other.

That said, obviously it's good to have clear names
(especially without negative connotations) to describe concepts, otherwise it's hard to have constructive dialogues.

As you can see from other posts, even when the definition of a term is clear, some people still misunderstand you.

> If a far right person refuses to expand on their position and demands that you explain why they’re wrong, you’re looking at bait!

Look out, there's another person behind you who doesn't believe in racism (including against white people)!

Which means, he is far, far-right, obviously!

Oh God, the horror! Careful, he might bite you!

Which is quite bizarre, when you think about it. In a country as systemically racist and white-supremacist as the US*, one would think such a following would be a boon, not a liability.

In some cases I wonder if the Office team had internal coding policies against threading because they aren’t sure about thread safety on some legacy structures. I remember reporting the issues Outlook had blocking UI waiting on network calls in the Office 97 beta (oh, was I an optimistic teenager) and multiple decades later that’s still affecting users.

As a fellow commentor said this is more about statistics. There is another layer of luck that one does not create: genetic/childhood experience.

I guess the take from the article is that one should try again and again and eventually statistics will take over. But it might be lucky to have the ability to try again and again.
ouch. I just tried it, I think it did okay: https://imgur.com/a/4Y5SAeD

The check value is doubly stupid because there are two of them: zlib compression adds the Adler32 of the uncompressed data, and then the IDAT adds a CRC32 of the compressed data.
Agreed, but part of the teachers' job is to impart that curiosity and interest onto their students. That is hard to do, and only the very best teachers actually manage to do this.

Lichess: Accuracy Metric
[author here] counter argument: some forms of yes have a "carrying cost". sometimes counterfactual (opportunity cost), sometimes mental, sometimes financial. some yeses are simply not worth it, then you get the counterswing phase where you go "hell yes or no" (aka default no to most things).

i recommend figuring out a happy middle between the two rather than swinging thru the extremes.

further nuance - keeping the option of saying yes (as opposed to directly saying yes) also has a carrying cost: https://www.thecrimson.com/article/2017/5/25/desai-commencem...
If you have int(percent * 10) + 1 you can just generate that many blue circles (checking for the edge-case of zero, or even better using ceil instead of int), the rest white and return it - no need for manually crafting the array (since the performance is, I presume, not a critical thing here). If tomorrow you want stars instead of the circles you just edit 2 chars in one place, instead of typing manually all combinations.
Agree.

My go-to graphics format in the days of MCGA was PCX. Very easy to decode even with a small assembler routine.
My favourite scapegoat is the agile dev process.

It takes away freedom and agency for devs which makes small things also suck where mainly complex things needing multiple programmers did without agile.

Since agile is so process heavy.

I imagine there are no dev owner of calc.exe anymore at MS.

They ruined paint.exe too btw.

DOH and DOT would go some way to mitigating DNS inadequacies (although they have their own issues in terms of network autonomy).
I personally think the best long term solution would be for each TLD to maintain the CA bundle and TLS standards for that TLD.
That way there is no case where a CA cert from CN can issue a cert for google.com .

It would also specifically allow non-identity locally issued certs for .local, .lan, .hobby etc...

I've started to remove them from my own code. It's widely mentioned as The Right Way, but I feel the reasons why are obsolete. The stated reason is always that you could forget to add braces when adding a second statement.

That was useful in a time where a text editor was "smart" when it copied your indentation to a new line. But nowadays any tooling will warn you when indentation doesn't match the bracing. The odds of people making that mistake has gone so far down, that the risk is no longer worth the reduced readability.

It's not the case on iOS. On iOS applications can't prevent screenshots -- though applications are notified when you take a screenshot.

I briefly used Android and the fact that applications can prevent screenshots is a horrible decision, closer to DRM than to a user-centric design.
So are you saying that the scam is actually ok, because in theory Amazon would refund indefinitely into the future, which wouldn't happen, because users are not asking for a refund anyway? How does this make it ok? I'm not sure if I can follow the argumentation here.

Sometimes bias is important, especially when asking ambiguous questions. Are you asking for IQ scores by racial group regardless of their background or corrected for confounders?

The answers by chatGPT on IQ by race are factually correct by one reading. IQ is for "blacks" can be lower than for "whites" (last answer by chatGPT), but this does not mean that this is because of skin color or genetics. Instead, many studies have shown that when correcting for socio-economic factors (e.g., wealth, quality of education, lead in drinking water) there is no difference, which is what chatGPT hints at in the answers 4 and 5.

Similarly, by asking about the correlation between SAT scores and IQ you seem to hint at the fact that lower SAT scores mean a lower IQ. However, there is no perfect correlation and if you read up on meta-analyses you will find that the other explaining factors are related to socio-economic factors and not genetics.

Precisely because some people on purpose or not on purpose don't consider these confounders, it is best to consider confounders in replying to these questions
For me, the biggest "blind spots" in the last few cars I've had are not covered by any sort of detectors... the front pylons on the windshield have often made me unable to see left and right. I often find myself rolling up to a stop sign thinking it's clear, but then realizing that someone has just been driving "in sync" with my pylon, entirely hiding them from sight. I'm not sure how to solve this problem, but I suspect some sort of indicator could be useful in this case.

Otherwise, I'm not sure what the main driver of this is. In part, it's probably a combination of "I know better than the system," especially after some incidences of false positives, and then the general confusion / annoyance with "new UI." Again, at least for most people I know, having an "entertainment center" in the car is not desirable. A simple display for current time / now playing and then a series of tactile buttons is the desire.

For me personally, the blind spot indicators specifically, the yellow triangle blinking on and off in my periphery, are really bothersome. I haven't owned a car with them yet, so likely after enough time I'd get use to it, but I really don't like this feature. I'm not familiar with ACC, looks like "adaptive" cruise control? In general, I don't have the opportunity to use cruise control, except for infrequent drives to some other location. In this case, the manual cruise has typically been plenty, and if I have to turn it off due to traffic, it's usually enough that I'd probably want to be paying enough attention to manually manage my speed rather than letting the car adapt. I haven't used it though, so hard to speak to that. I have not liked the centering, though maybe the versions I've used have been too primitive - it generally makes me nauseous if it's on, the unexpected pulls back are too abrupt..
This smells like DRM to me, an it's not a thing on Linux (thankfully). You'd probably have to install DRM yourself for this to be a thing.

No, some are simply social.
Yeah, I agree, I think the "next" major 'Eternal September' if you will was around the 2010's give or take after Smartphones became far more common and everyone had insanely easy access to the web. A lot of web traffic is insanely on mobile, whereas before it was not, and it was a mess (remember those awful .mobi domains that you would be redirected to, BUT only the home page, so whatever content you wanted was gone, good luck finding it now since you just hopped off Google!).
Newspapers are so filled with lies it is more fair to express which parts of them are true. The internet being a cesspit of misdirection and nonsense is not any different from every other part of human society. Of course the AI does these things too, because it is based on this input. It's a reflection of what was put in.

Nothing happening today (on the internet) will be the cause of anything being "rolled back" to some sort of historical better moment, because that moment does not exist today and most likely has never existed.

I've known people in my trade and others trying to get into the trade with similar difficulties. We're all dealt a certain amount of, to put it this way, brain power. Some I've tried to train just couldn't understand the concept of what I was trying to convey, even with pictures and drawings. Others got it well enough, but just either didn't care or became bored.

When I was learning electricity and struggling a little, the instructor told me part of the problem was I didn't yet know the right questions to ask. This blew and opened my mind at the same time! I've used that statement on myself and others ever since. But I also except some won't ever be able to understand these questions.

You aren't wrong, but that requires asking the question is this hex value correct? There are mistakes I can see without thinking such as missing semicolons and there are mistakes that require me to mentally tell myself "check this value". I would love to get to the point where my brain notices that I flipped a hex character automatically, but I rarely have the chance to work with bytes and hex values directly.

If I see 345,345,345+123,123,123=578,578,578,578 I probably wouldn't notice that this is incorrect but once I decide to really look at it the three errors are obvious.

A banking app an Android showed multiple obscure error messages when trying to log in and reporting the error was a PITA because they forbid screenshots.

I know sharing a screenshot of my bank statement is a bad idea, but forbidding it completely is a ridiculous extreme.
Rude. I was never below the top 1-2% of students in my classes (quarter of a century ago now, getting old). Depending on when you graduated, I’d hazard a guess that my course work was at least as challenging, if not more so. I don’t really have any insecurities about my intelligence, but I’ve also lived long enough to realise that intelligence is just like being pretty. It’s nice; you get stuff for free, but you didn’t earn it in any way. It doesn’t make me “better” than others, just lucky.

And I’m also old enough to realise that it’s starting to slowly decline and won’t be getting any better. Fluid intelligence that is. Good thing I went deep over my career, because that depth can’t be replaced by the younger set with their superior fluid intelligence. Knowledge, experience, and dare I say it, a bit of wisdom. Struggling a bit to really understand things has served me well in life.

When you can find your way through excessive noise (and ads) it's worth it. Quality signals can be paradise. Unfortunately, at this point, the noise is outpacing the ability to mitigate it. Gold is getting more and more difficult to find.

The system is unfortunately unfair to everyone, in the sense that it's an unfair expectation for people to love and be good simultaneously at teaching and research. I met many people that want to do research (because of passion or because that's what gets you a career) and are bothered by teaching; I've also met people, including myself, who prefer teaching to research, and it's unfair that neither of these groups can express their skill properly.

I predict that in the future there will be more of a separation of careers, especially at the bachelor level, where having an instructor that knows the state of the art of research is not so necessary (although I'd argue that they should have a PhD). This is already happening a bit, say, in the UK, especially in fields like CS where courses are required also in other degrees curricula.
Call me crazy, but bear in mind I love a lot of modern web development marvels (no more tables everywhere) but I kind of miss when a lot of websites copied each other, and they had... tables everywhere, but the reason I miss it was because navigation was insanely consistent! It was also insanely easy to figure out.

One old as heck website that comes to mind for me is 1337.net which I think is more early to mid 2000s I'm not sure if it went back further or not. It's a joke site with l33t speak and what have you, but the fact it's still around is pure entertainment. They have not touched anything about it. I don't even think it has ads? Kudos for keeping it like the Spacejam website.

Problem is these circles are dynamic and often unknown.

What you’re good at depends on how much you know, practice, and inherent talent. First two changes over time, third one is an unknown variable. You also don’t know when you should give up. Should Einstein have given up science after he couldn’t get a faculty job and had to work in the patent office?

Things that pay well depends on economic situations that can change dramatically. See the cryptocurrency world.

Things you enjoy doing also change. Many stories here show that making a career doing things you enjoy can suck the enjoyment out of it.
