The press release is somewhat difficult to parse, but it appears like First-Citizens Bank acquired:

Liabilities: $56bn (all of SVB's remaining deposits)

Assets: $56bn (SVB's illiquid loan book notionally worth $72bn at a $16.5bn discount)

(With a loss-share agreement depending on how the loan-book evolves over times.)

This implies that First-Citizens just acquired $56bn of flightly deposits with no additional liquid assets, and those depositors just lost their FDIC insurance for any amounts over $250k. If you're one of these depositors, why wouldn't you run to a big 4 bank?
Just to be clear, I am not a parent and I would not be so presumptuous to criticise someone's parenting skills when I have not gone through it. I wholeheartedly agree with you that the internet of 2023 is nothing like 2013 (or 2003 when I was growing up), and I don't think your reaction to the situation you described is wrong. Needless to say, parenting in this era is really, really hard and I don't envy you.

However, I want to exercise a hypothetical with you: what if you had discovered through access to her internet logs that she was a lesbian, or a trans man? How would you deal with that situation? Would you confront them, or would you pretend you didn't see it? Even if you have liberal views and are supportive*, that is a very deep and intimate piece of knowledge on your child that you hold now. Instead of them dictating the terms of their coming out, you effectively control that. That is quite a violation of trust.

Presumably your daughter knows you can see their internet logs, what if she does not feel like she isn't being her authentic self online because she knows you will find out? Even if you are supportive, discovering your sexual and/or gender identity takes time and takes having a safe space to feel comfortable to confide in someone.

This is all working under the assumption that you are comfortable with this, what about the many parents out there who are not? This becomes a weapon they can use to inflict psychological trauma on their child. Growing up as a LGBT kids is really hard for many of us, even today. Giving any more control or power to conservative parents is extremely dangerous.

You might think I'm exaggerating, or perhaps this is a niche point (it is far more likely your daughter is straight and cis-gendered) but the stakes are really high here. I came out to my parents when I was an adult, on my own terms when I moved out. I still got the 'it's just a phase' speech and all that sort of rubbish, but it was very clear to my parents that they had zero control over my life at that point. If they wanted to maintain a relationship with their son they had to change their viewpoints pretty quickly (and they did). Without hyperbole, if they had outed me when I was a child at best I would have been traumatised, at worst I would have killed myself.

I hope parents reading this really think about what I am saying here and take it seriously, because for some of you this will be something you'll have to deal with. How you do that will define everything about your relationship with your child.

* There is a whole separate discussion on what medical intervention for gender dysphoria is appropriate for children, but for the sake of this discussion I mean are you comfortable with the concept having a trans child more than specifics on medication.

You have that backwards (and it's a common mistake!). Loans issued by banks are assets; deposit accounts are liabilities. Although it seems counterintuitive, it makes sense if you think about it: loans are how banks (traditionally) make money, while deposits have to be surrendered by the bank on demand.

It's a nice answer if you know that the problem is that the lambda has a limit of 10GB. See the other example of asking it to specify vCPUs - that's just plain wrong, and unless you know how lambda works, it's not going to work for you.

I think this proves the point though, that it's closer to Copilot - it can generate a bunch of boilerplate, but you the programmer still need to understand what it's generating to deploy it. The only difference is that instead of opening vscode and typing LambdaFunction, I ask chatgpt in english, but I still need to specify. _that's_ the part we're not seeing movement on yet.
Yep!

fn foo(self: Self) void {}
fn bar(self: *const Self) void {}
fn baz(self: *Self) void {}

In this example, `foo` and `bar` cannot modify `self`, while `baz` can. In the case of `foo`, `self` is passed in by value, but since function arguments are immutable in Zig, it cannot be modified (the compiler might still opt for pass-by-reference under the hood, but the semantics don't change).

In the case of `bar` we are explicitly asking for a constant pointer, as you mentioned.

No one can ever change my mind: QNX had/has the best designed GUI of all-time.

http://toastytech.com/guis/qnx621.html

The custom pixel font, the modest yet vibrant colours, the icon design, the entire desktop shell, the fact that it is actually a UNIX-compatible OS, from a time Windows had a Fisher-Price UI and Linux looked... quite utilitarian.

Every time someone posts a GUI gallery site like this one, the first thing I do is navigate to the QNX section, and just marvel at what looks like a BeOS/Windows 95 love child from an alternate universe, and get all nostalgic for what seems to be a niche embedded RTOS I and many other have never used.

I would love SerenityOS to make a couple steps closer to this aesthetic ideal than the Windows 95 look.
I'm philosophically comfortable with the notion that some things are unknowable and that eventually one just has to take certain cornerstone propositions about the nature of reality on trust and / or faith. Ultimately though the question is irrelevant to the discussion at hand, as the claim I'm making is that physical reality is at a lower level than socio economic reality (which I'll give you is a contested claim these days)
Apologies, typo corrected
Mac OS 7 is the superior and ultimate aesthetic. Objectively. Which has nothing to do with the fact it was the first computer I had access to. No connection at all.
Windows is making so many and more small but frequent annoyances and barricades I have to navigate in the daily work - not to forget trivial mistakes like reminders in the background and alike - that I am in the process of moving towards Linux.

Meanwhile, despite being more experienced in what I do than 20 years ago my productivity is not increasing much, mostly due to the barricades introduced (when I am not distracted and able to work I am more performant than before). And the biggest component in it are the tools and 'services' that forgot how to support users instead of asking users to support the whims and needs of software, making the life of software vendors not the life of the users easier. Which is especially true for Windows which is in an eternal and constant incomplete reshuffling of concepts while previously working easy matters got ruined and confusing to use. Taskbar, notifications, navigation, positioning of frequently used features, behaviour and reaction to actions are altered, with less benefit than the mere change disrupting the user workflow.

The software highjacks and intentionally diverts the attention of the user instead of helping them work. Having higher and higher maintenance level instead of being helpful.

Never ever asked marginal but broadly advertised things pushed through without choice generating noise and nuisance in daily, hourly work! Focusing on experimental AI matters while a simple switch between windows and similar elementary things are more difficult than 20 years ago is maddening. Shortly: I am increasingly dissatisfied with what and how MS is doing (while not having a bright history to begin with). I feel increasing disgust trying to do anything with Windows. This will not end well in our relationship.
Thanks for the reply; I also saw your other reply to a similar comment after I'd posted mine and your position seems more reasonable than I first understood it.
MS365 from Linux is at times painful but not undoable, for example sharing ppts from teams is nice. In the browser it's anyway easier to have multiple teams windows open.

For everything development related, Windows is just that layer that runs WSL2, and dropping the WS makes it better.
What's the alternative though?

I don't want to buy the overpriced hardware that comes with Apple.

For Linux, I'd like something that provides some kind of stability without me having to search for obscure shell commands for fixing new issues every 2 weeks, which unfortunately has been my experience with using it on my laptop in the past. Maybe it has gotten better, I'm open for recommendations.

> It was supposed to ban fossil fuel cars and vans only

You are right, of course. I knew that but my wording was a bit misleading:

>> but don’t want the government to prohibit combustion engines

That does not change the argument, however: The government should take a neutral stance, even when the private sector believes electric cars are the way to go.

> The liberals wanted an exception for cars, where even most of the carmakers have pledged not to sell ICE cars. It's just nonsense.

From another perspective prohibition of ICE cars is even more silly when most car makers actually don't want to build them anymore -- because this act then becomes merely a symbolic gesture and does not have any impact on the environment anyway. So another reason not to hate the FDP for its move.

So true! We are pushed around for the sake of pretetious crap.
> If we were talking about 1 restaurant, or even 100, that would mean that 1 in 4,096 orders (or 1 every 40 days) are getting swapped due to this efficiency.

Not really.

For swapping to occur, two orders have to be sitting there at the same time with the same last 3 digits and the wrong one has to be picked. So thats one in 2x4096. Every time there is only one order sitting there, the propability drops to 0%. And once there are more orders sitting there, it increases beyond one in 2x4096.

Where the total ends up is heavily dependent on how often multiple orders are sitting there, waiting. It's hard to quantify, but qualitatively we can certainly conclude that the more busy a place and time is, the more likely this is to occur.
The working requirements of "when I click X, do Y" comes from PO's, sure. But the remaining implied requirements (what happens if there's an error in your app? How do you identify sensitive data that needs to be handled differently to "basic" data?) in my experience (working with teams of varying degrees of experience) are defined by engineering.

We're talking about being a couple of years away from ChatGPT being able to copy and paste from tutorials here, and with my understanding of AI (I've done a few ML projects in the last decade, but nothing that stuck), that's the "easy" part. The impressive part of things like Mindjourney is the synthesis, and we're not really seeing that or any signs that it's coming IMO.

Show HN: KGraph, a GPU-accelerated graph plotter
Have you ever lost your mind at Desmos or Geogebra for occasionally being so god-damn slow and laggy? I have and, as a result, decided to make my own, GPU-accelerated (webgl2) graph plotter that renders equations, shaded plots, etc. with butter-smooth framerates.

Equations we are used to think as unplottable (with usable real-time performance), like for example `e ^ (sin(x) * x ^ 2 * cos(y)) = cos(e ^ (x * y))`, will render just as smoothly [0] as something simple, like `y = x ^ 2`.

Goals:
* Rendering (almost) any equation without performance problems
* Enabling acquiring new insights from being able to closely interact with complicated equations
* Having an intuitive, easy-to-use and not-buggy interface

Non-goals:
* Being a general-purpose CAS software

KGraph is under active development, and features such as parametric equations are coming in the near future!

Thank you for your feedback!

So many people say this, but I have to imagine that such people haven't actually really tried to write SQL in their services and avoid the temptation to introduce all sorts of abstractions.

Because in my experience this doesn't happen. You just have to be OK with some duplication (which most engineers over-focus on to the point of serious detriment).
Last Windoze I used was XP. Back then most geeks reinstalled the OS from scratch every few months or so. This was necessary to combat the inevitable rot that happened to every installation. There was always a number of things that were necessary to install to make the system usable every time. We worked out how to streamline some things by building custom installation discs. But there was still a load of effort and accumulated knowledge applied to just using the damn thing.

I'd been playing with Linux for a while but hadn't got beyond the dual-booting phase. Then at some point I realised that if I put as much effort into Linux to learn how things worked etc. it would probably be just as good in practice. Why did I continue to put up with Windows? Turns out I was right. I haven't had Windoze in my house for well over a decade at this point. I never had to use Vista. One of the best choices I ever made.
Sometimes you look at the world a different way.

It's a trope in fantasy books that elves are sensitive to iron, and humans can easily defeat them by using "cold iron" or steel weapons and armour.

So... what is humanity's "cold iron"?

Two that come to mind are beryllium and cadmium, both used almost nowhere in bulk outside of... military aerospace... because they're poisonous to humans.

Beryllium is the ultimate aerospace engineering metal. Extremely light, very strong, and doesn't expand much when heated. It's commonly used in missiles and the like.

Cadmium is the ultimate anti-corrosion coating because it's so soft that it reflows to cover microscopic cracks. That gold colour you see on the undercarriage and landing gear of some military aircraft is cadmium. Its use is banned for most civilian purposes, but special dispensation is available for military use. It's just that good, which justifies lightly poisoning a few airmen.
It is an insurance fund; for every $100 in deposits, banks pay a few cents in insurance premiums.

notch898a is referring to how, when the full backstop of deposits regardless of size at SVB and Signature bank was announced, the government said that a) it wasn't a bailout because taxpayers wouldn't pay anything, and b) there would if necessary be a "special assessment" (i.e., mandatory additional premiums) from all banks. Our point is that a) is nonsensical given b), because of the total overlap between US taxpayers and US bank customers.

> Make the math use bigger numbers.

Also, add redundancy so that if something is read out wrong then there is guaranteed to be no match. Error-correcting codes have been around for centuries (well, almost). Simplest way to do this is to add a fourth digit which acts as a checksum. Nobody needs to know this, but it will make the legal combinations very few in the space of total combinations, so if something is read out wrong you'll notice right away.
I'm in a similar boat. I'm currently building setups to have GPT-n write code, and it's surprising how good it really is, and in such a short space of time.

That seems to be very much the exception. In many other cases Linux gives significantly better performance and less issues.

Linux is very much a viable gaming platform these days, and Windows only has a minimal advantage in that area.
For that use case, they have EFS. If you are reading from one of more S3 blobs and gradually building another blob, you can keep that blob on EFS and, when finished, dump it back to S3.

"Politics already suffers heavily from not getting the best-of-the-best"

It is repeated often, but is this really true?

Number 1 trait of a politician should be honesty and integrity in my opinion - and I don't think that you can increase that factor, just with throwing more money on them. Then you maybe just get more smart people, who are in it for the money and use their smarts and cunning to extract even more money. I think politicians should want that job, because they primarily feel the call to achieve something bigger.

So a adequate payrise is alright in my opinion, but I don't want the top managers who run a big compony for profit to also run states. As states are (or should not be) profit orientated, but to serve the greater good of its people.

And by doing so, many people will be replaced. It is undeniable.

Sure, developers will be working on a higher level of abstraction, but in the higher level, you will need lesser people.

So, people will be laid off. Make no mistake of that.

And there will be segments where entire products can be spewed out by AI. There will be 100% layoff on those teams.

A manager can now supervise 5-7 products and there will be one "Chief/Principal Engineer" who does the prompting for 2-3 products. Then there will be systems and devops people with much lesser number.

All of IT people won't lose their jobs, for sure. But many many will be laid off and hiring will significantly be dropped.

And owners/shareholders of IT companies will grow richer and make bank when the techies will be unemployed.

The techies may go on to teach Math or Physics to High Schoolers, or find other jobs, but then those people will be replaced.

UBI will be the way to go. But countries like India, China, Indonesia will be screwed.
