> H&M, Zara, and Uniqlo are luxury?

None of them are building infra to a level that rivals US behemoths. They are well known foreigns brands, but nether commands a high market share nor represent an existential threat to US brands.

Top 2 on the market should be Amazon and Wallmart, in whichever order:
https://www.cnbc.com/2021/03/17/amazon-unseats-walmart-to-be...

To note even Gap is bigger than any of those 3 mentionned.

I was pointing at the luxury market because there’s probably more competion from the outside.

> Shell

You’re not answering on how it operates in the US. Toyota US is in the same situation: it’s a subsidiary of the Japanese entity, but still “builds” cars in the US. Customer perceive them as Japanese cars perhaps, but if they‘re not marked at imported cars, that perception is just misplaced.

Shell US refining its own oil in the US falls in the same bucket to me.

The discussion was wether there was examples of foreign companies building infra to directly import foreign goods into the US market. It seems to be diverging into “are there well know and successful foreign brands in the US”
The is the worst comparison in the history of comparisons.
It failed to learn from binary repos used in C and C++ builds, which are the main reason why C++ with all its issues can still manage to compile faster in many cases.

What if a country has two official languages (Canada) or three (Switzerland) or eleven (South Africa)?

Do you need to learn them all, as a foreigner? What about as a naturalized citizen? What about as a born citizen?

What if a country has adopted English as another official language (Hong Kong, Malaysia). Do you still need to learn the other languages?

FireWire is a fundamentally different protocol, in that it has direct memory access. You have to treat it more like PCI than USB.
Depends a lot on career and how mobile you want to be. What do you do when your career is promising according to your diploma but there's a stubborn local economic downturn? Or when opportunity for making twice the money in a more interesting job opens up in a city far from where you are? If you're going to stay put no matter what, then sure. But otherwise, homeownership is a burden for job mobility. Being mobile allowed me to find a better job that requires about the same work but pays about 4x what I made in the city where I started. I saved too, and stock rose enough that I don't feel bad about not buying a box of bricks earlier.
>It makes me wonder why Aliexpress doesn't have more warehouses in the US

I'd suspect they do. Here in Australia, it's really common to get AliExpress goods delivered in 2-3 business days, with an AusPost label on the box and a return address in Melbourne.

Even for goods not physically located in the country, they're clearly doing something clever in terms of consolidating packages, booking out large chunks of air cargo space and dispatching from a local warehouse. Same deal with the Australian return address, but 7-10 days instead of 2-3.

You can tell when they're coming via this route, as they'll have the shipping method "AliExpress Standard Shipping". CaiNiao is still your bog standard 4-6 weeks by boat.

This is a pretty new thing, and only came about after China lost access to subsidised global shipping (as in, subsidies from other developed countries, not the Chinese Government) in 2021.
AliExpress sellers also lost access to subsidised shipping from the Chinese government in the last few years. Prior to this, for certain locally manufactured goods, they could send them overseas at a rate of something like 1 yuan per half-kilo (essentially US$0.02 or so for a USB cable), hence why you'd get all these $1 items with free shipping.
Is your goal to have fun building it? Or is your goal to ship it?

I know plenty of projects that will never ship because the author can think of new things faster than he can code. Coding is fun. Shipping, selling and supporting is work. Hence the (subconscious?) goal of never actually shipping.

Which is perfectly OK. But being self-aware enough to know this is happening is both useful and liberating.

Alternatively if your goal is to ship, then ship it already...
Quite a bit longer than Facebook would. Because those are examples of communities where content is not moderated based on profitability, and best efforts are made to protect the community and deal with bad actors. (There's claims, of course, that HN moderates in manners to protect YC's business, but I don't feel that's significant, if it happens at all. YC definitely doesn't benefit financially from increased engagement on HN, so they have no reason to deliberately promote harm.)
Newspapers are default-deny. The editors decide which letters to the editor to publish.

Social media platforms are default-allow. If they were default-deny, it would take months to get your newsfeed posts approved.

Newspapers were also not designed to be a way for readers to express themselves. Social media platforms exist so that users can express themselves.

I'm not saying that social media companies are doing a good job, or that their moderation practices are good, or that their quest for increasing engagement above all else is good. In fact I wouldn't mind if FB, Twitter, etc. just disappeared tomorrow. But comparing them to newspapers is just not a reasonable thing to do.
The ones for which I would refer the question to GPT. We are still in control of which questions go to GPT/the intern analyst (less critical ones, where a fraction erroneous are okay) and which go to the resident expert analyst.

Services could always take down illegal content (in fact they were legally required to).

Section 230 is specifically for taking down legal content that the site controller wants gone (without then having endorsed what remains as you say).

Section 230 was specifically to allow MORE than what you call "light moderation". That was always the point.
IDEA does something similar - you just type, and as long as the characters are found in the string in the order you typed them, it doesn't matter what's separating them, it will find a match.

So ABC would match AsynchronousByteChannel, and abc would match asynchronous_byte_channel. As would asyncbc or whatever else your brain comes up with.

It's quite nice.
Your chart kind of drives the point home. Who wants to own Japanese stocks when those companies are giving money to the employees? Compare to owning amazon stock where the employees are treated inhumanly to drive the stock valuation up.

You need to check what the common man has in the wallet instead.

Let US be US and Japan be Japan is all Im saying.
That's a specific type of mutex. Mutexes and single count Semaphores can absolutely be the same thing depending on the implementation. Similar to how some mutexes can be re-entrant but not always.

Automation will help with that. Growing salaries for those fewer young people would help too. For example to buy real estate that'd get cheaper.

None of these facts are relevant for how people use language. You may lament that people are beginning to use a word differently, but you cannot stop it and you cannot declare it authoritatively wrong. You can only lament and exhort.

Pretty crazy commute times even for folks who are in close proximity to an office. I work from home basically exclusively but have a company office ~8 miles from my hours where I can go into whenver. When using the light rail it's still about 15 mins to get to the station and probably minimum 30 mins of transit/waiting - probably about the same++ to drive/park on a work day not considering parking.
In your simple proposal, you are concentrating too much on the "brick and mortar" and not enough on the wider economic context.

One of the reasons why so much money pours into real estate is civilizational pessimism. People suspect that the recent inflationary episode wasn't the last one and don't want to hold much value in currency. The stock market has cooled too, even the Silicon Valley is going through the downward part of the cycle. Plus, the newly rich Chinese want to get their money out of reach of Beijing at almost any cost. So where does all the superfluous money go?

Into brick and mortar, because those do not lose their value anywhere as quickly as cash does, especially in highly coveted places.

(Real estate is by no means expensive everywhere in the West. You can buy an entire house in a depopulated Italian village for 1 euro. Real estate is expensive in attractive places.)

If you somehow block the influx of money searching preservation into brick and mortar, there will be consequences somewhere else, much like blocking a massive flow of water will cause it to divert, not disappear or stop.
Not enough to justify many .NET shops to go multi-lingual projects.

They already have to use C# no matter what, given the GUI and database frameworks.

Adding C++ or PowerShell into the mix might happen, due to
the frameworks and workloads that require reaching out to them.

While adding F#, even if more expressive, it barely makes sense from business point of view.

It isn't as if a mixed C#/F# codebase brings the same value as doing Python/C++.

Also to note that while F# team has pivoted into trying to make F# attractive to data science, their employer is one of the reasons why CPython is now taking performance more seriously.
Huh? What’s that have to do with things? I’m not even working in the USA

One thing I did find interesting though is that (well designed) sandwich ITX cases typically seem to have far better thermal behaviour than regular cases. No big cavity for heat to accumulate
You don't.

Seriously.

That is the price for avoiding liability: To be able to say you had nothing to do with it beyond providing a platform and abiding other applicable laws.
Sure, but my impression is that readers submit classified ads, someone at the paper says it's ok, and it gets published in the classifieds.

A social media platform would not be viable if someone had to approve every post before it went live. (Maybe that means that social media platforms should just not exist, but that's not really the specific point we're arguing here.)
The result after recompression is far from impeccable.
It continues to amaze me how many people, even here on HN, just parrot various (factually incorrect) talking points from various groups. Others pick a single desired outcome (less moderation) and refuse to address any of the resulting outcomes (Nazi and Terrorist propaganda on all major sites for instance).

This is just straight up egregious. They are encoding your freely distributed content with their DRM. Without offering any method of removing it. Surely there is some licencing issue there.

Which is an (in my opinion) very inmature position to take. Look at the governments of western Europe, particularily Scandinavia
If you want to go the newtype + Sum impl route, you don't have to make it `#[repr(transparent)]` or transmute the slice. You can just `impl Sum<FastFloat> for f32` and do `f.iter().copied().map(FastFloat).sum()`

The language I designed for Slint [https://github.com/slint-ui/slint] uses kebab-case, so it mandates spaces around the minus sign.
(If the lookup for `foo-bar` fails, it tries with `foo` and if that succeeds, the error message suggest the use of spaces)

What drama?
It's a little dispiriting to read a screed like this, because it doesn't represent the work we're doing. I think a slightly deeper evaluation beyond a skim-read of a Register article might be worthwhile before jumping to such strong conclusions.

In our talk, we explicitly say that today's web is the most amazing and pervasive platform ever built. And frameworks like Angular, React and vue.js serve the DOM-based model very well. Probably this will remain the vast majority of the web for the foreseeable future. But there are classes of apps like Rive (https://rive.app), Figma, or Google Sheets for that matter, that are hard to build on the web without using a technology like Canvas. I don't think that's "pushing pixels in people's faces" - it's simply using the right web standards for the job.

Canvas itself is a relatively low-level standard: it's good for drawing pixels. And so it might be useful to have a framework that enables animations and perhaps even some UI primitives here. Flutter's web work is an attempt at solving that problem, because we've already built a portable architecture for these capabilities. If you were building the next Figma or Rive, perhaps you'd see something useful in our open source toolkit. That's it. Nothing so nefarious as to be "deranged and anti-human".

I also can't let the accessibility comment go: that's a top priority for us, and we're very interested in reproducible issues there. It's been one of our biggest areas of investment to date.

Our early prototype demo (https://flutter-forward-demos.web.app) shows some examples of how we hope this will be integrated into a regular web page. (Disclaimer: this is built with our unstable branch, so may have some bugs.)

Disclosure: I work on Google's Flutter team.
Seems so weird to not have automated checks for something that seems to be described as "someone left the light on" and also not have the exchange automatically initiate itself. However, it still isn't that clear what the problem was. Were prices not "real" or correct?

Stuff like this will happen more and more. We treat software driven systems rather recklessly.

"Open source" is not a term that developed naturally through normal language development. It's a term of art specifically created to have a particular meaning.

Your argument is roughly equivalent to this one: "I can call this random cereal Cheerios, because language evolves and neither you nor General Mills decides how people use language."

This PDP-11 vs C thing always seems to come down to the PDP-11's auto-increment addressing modes vs C's ++ and --. Are there are any other PDP-11 features baked into C? Because this increment/decrement thing is hardly unique (the 68k CPUs had that too, and every CPU with a stack pointer also does it, some CPUs just made that a general addressing mode accessible in the instruction set.

While today's compiler do a lot more transformations which can result in surprising output, it's still fairly straightforward to map C statements to CPU instructions.

>why would you expect Apple to make it available to competing podcast apps?

Because a podcast is an rss feed that links to mp3s. It is an open standard where the user is in control of what client app to use. Anything that breaks this contract is no longer a podcast.

You want to monetize? Follow a structure such as relay.fm[1] where you can subscribe to an authenticated rss feed but still listen in whatever app you want. Or name it something else.

Ask HN: A Site for Insider Knowledge?
I recently faced a problem where the solution required insider information into one business segment where I have no contacts to (specifically, tourism). Is there any website where people can ask insider questions from people from other professions, not publicly?
And then you end up as a subculture relying on the host culture, but at the same time staying away with it. Coming from ex-Soviet country, that gives sad vibes of our infamous russian-speaking soviet-era settlers who never bothered to integrate. Nor their kids and grandchildren. In the end it creates a lot of friction and that friction brings very fringe political views. E.g. subscribing to Moscow viewpoints while living cushy life in rotten West. I've seen very similar patterns in english-speaking bubbles in Japan :/
> any author would be idiotic to read stolen source code and then decide to create a OSS library/project based on what they learn from it.

What? Why? Isn't this what software developers do — they read a lot of code; they find ideas they like; they mix them together with their own ideas while building something. Isn't this how learning works in general?

Google leadership decide how to allocate people and resources.

Some areas are bloated, but others definitely aren't. Goog has 10x staff per capita (not linear scale) as a comparable MAAN_ I work at.

They definitely don't have enough in GCP and have a track record of under-resourcing support and engineering. It should be high-status department that doesn't pinch pennies, but they do. AWS OTOH is high-status and rarely touched by layoffs because it's both critical to running the company and highly-profitable.
Two cases that could break Big Tech's hold on the internet.

These cases are not going to stop anyone from publishing their own content via internet, but they might affect Big Tech intermediaries that publish only other people's content and produce no content themselves.

These cases will not stop traditional media organisations that employ journalists from fact-checking and publishing the content they produce.

Even if these cases are decided favourably to the defendants, "tech" companies will continue to publish low quality, low-brow, incendiary, false, "clickbait" content. That is what gets eyeballs. Section 230 is not incentivising them to moderate, as it was intended. Advertising is incentivising them to allow anything that garners more views and "engagement". Section 230 is only providing them with immunity from all manner of litigation around any moderation. There is no incentive to fact-check anything. Even "recommending" terrorrist group videos is apprently fair game.

If they have zero obligation to moderate and no incentive to fact-check, because they have immunity under 230, i.e., Google wins against Gonzalez, then they can grow their once modest websites to gigantic, overpowering size, with a disproportionate amount of influence on the open web.^1

Reframing the situation, the gigantic websites now call themselves "platforms", sharecroppers and serfs are "publishers" and "creators".

Grab a stake in the "Metaverse".

You cannot break something that is already broken.

1. For Big Tech this web feudalism is the Holy Grail. Grow the audience size and reap the advertising revenue. Obviously any proposed change, an improved interpretation of Section 230, that could threaten this status quo is unacceptable to them. But they are not the majority of web users. Was the web created so that a few websites could control the majority of traffic. In their view, yes. That is the only way the web can operate. How convenient.
The "Japanese language requirement" is technically part of requirement 4... the rational being that if you can't understand Japanese and you aren't wealthy enough to support yourself without working for the rest of your life, you are too dependent on English language workplaces.

That literally is the point of open source: that it's not reliant on a single vendor. That's what open source was created for, and that's a big part of why it's thrived.

It's fine to create other structures, but as many have pointed out here, those other structures aren't open source. There are a lot of licenses that allow access to source code (very common in enterprise licenses) but have restrictions on what you can do with that source code.
