>Cultural conformity is not being enforced in Europe

Not nearly as much now, but it was definitely enforced 100 to 50 or so years ago in most European countries to the point of being illegal to speak another language than the official local one and ethnic discrimination was rampant. Yes, also in schools and at work. See South Tyrol and Italy and there's other such examples in Europe. Conformity was definitely enforced.

Glossing over this dark past doesn't change the fact that it happened here as well.
I used esimdb before and it was perfect. Wouldn’t that work in Japan too! They have a lot of options https://esimdb.com/japan
I believe this is theoretically fixed in Ventura via the mechanism of always checking notarization status upon execution, in which case Apple could publish a notarization revocation ticket for the old insecure AppleMobileBackup binary to make it inoperable without significant intentional user action.
Quit listening a while back cuz it got too political at a point. Is it better now?
Seems like the title should be rewritten from cocksure to something informative: "Grizzly bears missing toes due to traps for smaller animals"?
What's special about RV heat pumps which makes them so bad compared to regular heat pumps? Heat pumps have gotten significantly better lately, and house-models are effecient down to -25C. Maybe the RV models you have tried are mostly older models?
You seem to be talking about neural Turing machines: https://arxiv.org/abs/1410.5401

Combining these with LLM sounds indeed quite interesting, I don't know why they haven't been used much.
> Is this just the typical “European = better” stance so prevalent online?

Yes and is often the case, fully justified.

When it's the time to file taxes, you go to a government website that tells you all it knows about you - inheritances, donations, salaries, etc etc. You can add stuff if you want (e.g. special deductions), but for most people it's a matter of next next OK Finished. On a government website everyone knows (that send you a letter/email to remind you it's time), for free, and works for everyone regardless of complexity. Contrast that with the US where tou have to provide all the information yourself, but first you have to find filing software that you sometimes have to pay for (either because of your situation or because you were tricked by dark patterns).

It's honestly weird. Nobody likes taxes, that's why they should be as easy as possible to file and pay. The American model of adding middlemen for their benefit is going directly against that for no good reason.
This week in KDE: The best Plasma 5 version ever
Depending on dictionary size, the entropy is way lower. Assuming a dictionary of 10k words, it’s only 53 bits. In the comic it says 44 bits btw.
Definitely, but those are large and complex applications. This is a fancy dropdown.
That's true, but practically when you do this you can just say the probability of a false positive is bounded above by 1/1e5 or so and you just ignore it, because most likely the only reason you care about the longest palindromic substring in the first place is to pass the leetcode autograder.

Edit: For a more rigorous proof of the error bound, see https://baites.github.io/algorithms/algorithm-analysis/2020/...

Basically it's O(n)/P where P is your prime modulus (usually 1e6 + 3 or 1e9 + 9), so for most practical input lengths your probability of collision is negligibly small enough that you'll pass the autograder).
All good points, but you would surely agree that despite that it is better than the stethoscope? Particularly in ambulatory care rather than ED, where there isn’t a CT scanner down the corridor. ED docs are forever trying to diagnose aortic dissection for some reason…

Even if you have the free time, I'm surprised that they managed to batch the different stages and have all interviews in the same time period. If I'm interviewing, at any given time I'll be sending out resumes, and talking to recruiters, and doing technical interviews, and waiting for feedback asynchronously for different companies.
I think it's time to write a blog article under the name you don't need the internet.

I hear you. Like many others I have seen what's wrong, seen the carelessness, the brutality. I'll skip the details. I've also seen what's right ... caring ... growing more obvious. Seen any horses or dogs or slaves whipped in the streets lately? Six-year-olds working 12-hour days?

Many have been misled and deceived and densensitized and cheated and de-liberated. Yet they will still help each other, and even complete strangers, with nothing visible to gain. Giving a shit makes a difference. That's how I really feel.

I don't know of any sane language that does not support interfaces.

Type-classes are also just interfaces.

Additionally quite some orthogonal concepts are mixed up here: Classes, inheritance, overriding, runtime types, patterns…

In the end OO and FP are anyway the same thing at the core. You can mechanically translate one into the other:

I am French and we are quite liberal with our swear words. This is interesting because the ones that are used in everyday conversation, due to the intonation, are not rude. Not poetry, but not vulgarity either.

For instance the word "merde" ("shit"). When you say "ET. MERDE." clearly breaking the words apart and emphasizing them - everyone will think "something definitely bad happened" but nobody would be offended. This is only one of the zillion examples.

Now, there is a very, very fine line between being "appropriately, cleverly vulgar" and "vulgar". You do not want to be the latter.

You can say a whole daisy chain and still be fine: "oh putain de merde, quel enfoiré de Word, ma thèse sur Paul Sartre a disparu" ("fucking shitty bastard of Word, my PhD thesis about Paul Sartre has just vanished").

When I go to the US, I always forget to switch on the puritanian-s**t-filter and people look at me really sternly. I even had one older lady coming to my table where I was seated with my teenager boys when she somehow head the word "merde" (as in "et. merde." when I broke something) to tell me that the children should not hear such words.

> Markdown is powerful enough to format and store documentation of most forms you might need

I find AsciiDoc to be more robust, but I agree broadly that using text-based documentation in version control – and, ideally, published via the same kind of VCS-driven automation you’d use to build and pubish software from source – is the best way to do things.
Laser defense is fundametally short range, so it's best use case is probably behind the front lines, to defend your air force bases and keep the air power active. Also to defend ships. Critical infrastructure such as fuel depots, power stations. Anything up to a few kilometers. This also means your lasers are connected to power lines.

The best idea is to keep your rear echelons free from missile and drone harrassment, so you can focus your attention on the offensive.

Drone swarms are an interesting idea as well.
Around a million people in the US live in RVs full time. Almost all of them have generators for the times they lack shore power.

It's actually not good. It is totally legal to appeal a conviction. The size of a bank account is not a measurement in this.

Stranger is US law in general, where the outcome of convictions depends on the emotional stability of a judge and the thoughts of a jury.

Law is an emotional process in the US. In Europe there are no emotions involved in the sentencing.

I think this reflects the responds like "Send her to prison, where she belongs". There is an appeal, so let's see if she really belongs there.
It's mostly because on the Internet you can self-select (sort of) your topic of discussion and your "social" circles.

In real life it would be difficult to have a "fight" and a discussion over public transportation or some random history subject, because, presumably, your friends from real life are not that interested in those subjects. But if you are interested in those subjects you most probably frequent places on the internet that discuss them, hence the fights and the discussions.
Or you drive south.
I mean, if you can pay 150k to employ a salesperson to bring in an extra 400k of revenue, why wouldn't you?

Of course, the math kind of goes the other way once you're projecting that your salesperson is only going to bring in 100k due to economic circumstances...
The sloth is fairly small compared to some other secrets. It's also the same colour of the tree's trunk so it's kind of hard to see for afar.

That we could only communicate with each other by excitedly jumping around - and still managed to explore together - reminded me of childhood memories playing with other kids in Sweden as a tourist who didn't speak their language.
> proactively sidelined me so much it left me nothing to do on a daily basis.

A bit of a tangent, but there is always learning to do. Reading documentation on the tools in use.

They cannot take your brain away (without breaking the law). A minimally good day consists of walking out of the building smarter.

Yesterday I learned that the WindowKey+RightArrow will make the application with focus occupy the right half of the screen.
It's not a different language as in "it's a different language". It's just types added. The actual executable code is pure Javascript. The type annotations have ZERO influence on what is executed, they are completely and used during development.

To call this "another language" as if it was C vs. Python does not make any sense, unless your main goal is to win some Internet argument no matter what.
Improving the world is getting something out of it. That's in one's own interest by itself.

> there is one criminal justice system in this country.

That's an illusion. There's almost no wealthy criminal that sees the walls of a prison - and if they do, they find ways to get out very quickly thanks to their connections.

Or, somewhat less pejoratively, you want to advance a hypothesis to see if it will stand up to public scrutiny.
The ultimate Turing test is, if it looks like a human and smells like a human and moves like a human and acts like a human, then it’s human.

If your test only has human and machine input, say, chess moves or answers to basic math questions, even a very basic AI will be indistinguishable. If your test has common-knowledge questions and social responses than an AI like ChatGPT may be indistinguishable.

But if your test involves physically looking at the subjects and having them do routine human things like eat, sleep, talk to others…you’ll be able to recognize nearly instantly. Because the best Androids today only reach the uncanny valley; technology isn’t even close to replicating the physical aspect, especially movement, durability, and metabolism, and likely won’t be for a while.

Even if you’re doing the test on FaceTime, current CG models struggle to imitate real actors and AFAIK cannot do so real-time. We have deepfakes, but they are mainly good for typical and prepared positions (e.g. face directly in front of camera), and (like image generation) are still subject to artifacts. Although this may not be true in the future, biology will be a lot harder to replicate.
Many HN posters have been pointing this out, yes. It’s getting a bit tiring, but I will once again repeat my multi-decade observational summary:

This aesthetic is the norm for the tiny (but rapidly growing) sliver of humanity who, like the author, favors their constructed Internet identities instead of the less-mutable shared reality that we all inhabit together.

Such persons tend to be impressively talented with respect to the tiniest minutiae of information systems, somewhat emotionally volatile, obnoxiously socialist in political alignment, and somewhere on the autism spectrum.

(Source: am a trans woman who is perfectly content with her identity and form here in our shared reality as a human male. There are more of us than you might think, because it really isn’t a difficult thing to reconcile.)

I thought the same thing. Surely it must be a function of the prevalence of these fonts though. In a hypothetical world where 90% of text you read is in sans serif I'd have to imagine that this would tilt the readability study results in sans serif's favor. I wonder if the studies attempt to control for this somehow?
no.

Not until a ultrasound can easily and quickly identify a heart murmur or crackle of lungs indicating the type of lung infection. (as in put it on, wait for 10 seconds)

Look, ultrasounds are slow, narrow, high resolution tools. Scanning your lungs with an ultrasound takes a fucking age, and requires a lot of training to get good results and interpret them. if you at the GP/family doctor, and you want to eliminate symptoms quickly, the stethoscope is super quick.

sure, if you are looking for fluids to drain, ultrasound is great. But you are looking for something and you need to be precise so you can shove the drain in the right place.

my doctor friend says: "ultrasounds are great, but they are really hard to understand. I used to do brainscans on newborns, and I fucking hated it" (the inference being that getting a good image was tricky and fatiguing)

If you think that's weird, compare it between common fonts: https://unicode.org/emoji/charts-11.0/full-emoji-list.html#1...

Disregarding the "browser" column (could be anything, it's what your browser renders the text as), only the Twitter font has the "looking up" variant that you think is normal. I'd rather say the straight-ahead look is the norm for most font designers when interpreting the "FACE WITH PLEADING EYES" description of the character.

There are necessary energy needs only biologically, adults run at about 100 watts. So if humans could use electricity as energy source directly (or indirectly without losses) instead of biomass diet, 50 MW would supply about 500k people.

Electricity for our everyday applications is nice, but its demand is elastic (depends on price) and there is no rule of thumb about consumption per person outside of just measuring what various societies happen to use currently, but that's bad data to plan by as we are hugely overusing and underpricing fossils. Some communities don't use any electricity, etc.
This is also really fantastic. Very different from the other text animation examples, and perfect for representing when one letter transforms into another.

I was in tech, left in 2017 (when I was ~31 years old), though I had the funds to take significant time off. VRChat got me into 3D modeling, which eventually led me to taking classes as an avocational student at a VFX school in 2019 (33-34). Now I work as a contractor doing 3D modeling for decent money, though I do feel like I lucked into this position (hard to find lucrative 3D modeling positions without experience).
