In my experience, someone committing crimes like this has a fundamental issue with their emotional self regulatory ability. Money enables coping mechanisms (well, clearly just sometimes like in this case!) that otherwise wouldn’t be available. It is also a general motivator, as you note, for folks to do all sorts of things for someone besides general emotional coping type stuff. Like get a house, or whatever.

Chances are his social dysfunction really stems from something deep he’s refusing to look at and acknowledge; and it’s feeding all these behaviors maladaptively. He probably had one particular person he wanted the validation he saw as coming from sex with, and that’s why the suitcase.

Especially since, quite frankly, if he just wanted to get laid and had cash, it’s not like it would take that much looking to find someone to help him with that and it wouldn’t involve more than a small handful of bills. If he could get his act somewhat together, anyway.
> English translation would be literally „transgender“.

So you...do have a word meaning "transgender?"
I was definitely guilty of thinking this. Confirmation bias is a helluva drug.
Interesting, ok time will tell how that will play out. Around me people are mostly rooting for MB/VW/BMW rather than American or Chinese. This is mostly a matter of perception and the dealer network and service organizations. Tesla has a very bad rep in that sense (though I do know people that have Tesla's too and they appear to be happy enough with their cars), it's all good as long as there are no problems and after that is a huge problem.

Polestar presents very well here, right now they have a better rep than Tesla which I find quite impressive, given that they are manufactured in China and sold by a relatively new sales organization. What is interesting is that somehow they've managed to sidestep the Chinese reputation issue completely and people perceive them as European, which they really are not.
Anecdotal but when I lived there, I had a few female coworkers who confided to me that they only wanted to date foreigners because they felt trapped by the cultural expectations that came with dating a Japanese man. So, yes it might be a factor :)
Danish pricing is off the scale due to the very high registration tax, on top of the 25% VAT.

Registration rates are of the value including VAT[0]:

25% of DKK 65,800
85% of DKK 65,800-204,600
150% of the rest.

This is actually a bit cheaper than it was a few years ago when the top tax amount was 180%.

There are some deductions for electric vehicles that are complex (and decreasing) that are best read about on the linked page.

Came to post this. For an informed opinion on the issue of "Fliegender Gerichtsstand" (essentially, choose where to bring your case) I can recommend Vetter's blog post on the Erdogan/Böhmermann situation [1, German]. LG Hamburg is sadly infamous for this kind of decisions. It can and, based on the research in TFA likely will be, reigned in by higher courts, but this costs money, time and causes a lot of stress on the defendant. I applaud them for standing up to this decision.

The law firm (Rasch) in this case is also no stranger to copyright and piracy dealings. If you search for its name you find websites dealing with their "Abmahnungen" (roughly Cease & Desist) [2, German].

Ideally support gets built into languages & users just get a free performance boost without even thinking about it. Wouldn't that be great?

Bun has io-uring support. Deno issue, https://github.com/denoland/deno/issues/16232 . Node.js issue with prototype, https://github.com/libuv/libuv/issues/1947.

Getting good seems interesting & compelling to me. I'm not quite sure where your dislike of this better way of doing things stems from? Even if it does mean changing how we program a bit, to actually go about adopting a better way.
> ...for his garbage-tier phone.

As someone with an arguably garbage-tier phone, sans replaceable battery, I don't think anyone would let me trade it in for a new one or even some sort of a discount, because there isn't a name like Apple behind it, nor the support network.

My previous phone that had replaceable batteries has two in total that I occasionally charge, so it can act as a temporary backup if anything happens to my current phone.

At least once those are used up and no longer hold any sort of a charge, I'll be able to dispose of them in the supermarket battery collection point or something like that. I'm not sure whether I'd want to cram my current phone in there with its memory chips intact.

I guess there are a lot of factors to consider, whether people can afford a certain device or whether they care about disposing of certain types of items responsibly being some of them. Some of this probably varies based on the region of the world as well.

If the phone is unlocked, a badUSB-type device can do anything a keyboard can do, so it’s far from completely harmless.
One thing that came to mind recently is this imaginary subsidy that I came up with:

Give people money to go and eat a meal with strangers. A sit-down meal at a restaurant where you can talk.

I think this would benefit society immensely:

- New random connection, outside your bubble

- Someone who you can talk to, who might have a different point of view

- Making it real that there are other people than the ones you know
This is just the beginning and we don't know what will happen. Some people will say creative destruction is happening and people will find other jobs. They may equate this to the horse drivers finding other jobs at the beginning of the XXth century.

The truth is we don't know. People that will lose their jobs may find other jobs or not. Maybe it's harder to reinvent oneself now. Maybe a lot of people will truly suffer because of AI.

I find very hard to know with certainty what will happen, who will remain unharmed, and who will struggle but make it through, but change is coming.

Democratizing, with Amazon in the middle taking a cut.
Asking someone to implement a "profanity detector" would be a great interview question. If the interviewee jumps to implementing some substring-based algorithm, it's a red flag.
The near / distant difference is something that's known to physicists but could be misleading to the public, as you have experienced.

There is a long-standing question about the neutrino spectrum that comes out of reactors, the "reactor neutrino anomaly", which is a ~6% mismatch between a calculation of how many electron (anti)neutrinos should come out of reactors and how many are observed. Since neutrinos change their flavor, it's a potential avenue for observing so-called sterile neutrinos or discovering a fourth generation of leptons.

The neutrinos observed far from the reactor have a longer flight and therefore more time to change flavor; you'd expect a good mixture. That's what makes a detector "distant" (or "long baseline").

The neutrinos observed "close" to the reactor, in contrast, have less time to mix and you expect to see primarily electron flavor. To maximize discovery potential for a fixed detector sensitivity, close winds up meaning in practice as close to the reactor core as logistics and safety allow (~10 meters).
Have you ever written software in a company as large as Google? I have. It would need massive investments to make a server usable outside of the environment it was originally written for. It's just not viable.
A similar aspect is the replacement of American with US Citizen. This would exclude American Samoans who are non-citizen nationals of the United States.
"Sequencing the genome" is a bit misleading, it's "sequencing a genome", as the DNA used in the project came from a single individual dodo. Species are not individuals, they're populations. To get a snapshot of a species you'd need hundreds of genomes sequenced, then you'd look at the statistics of the variation between those genomes.

A healthy breeding population can't be clonal, this is pretty well understood from the standpoint of population biology. So you'd want to sequence many genomes, or at least have a means of introducing genetic diversity within the population. That natural population diversity evolved over about 20 million years (wiki), so at least several million generations of dodo ancestors.

Without the population diversity, you get the inbreeding problem, e.g. homozygous recessive genes causing all kinds of problems in development, reproduction, etc. Granted island populations are known for limited population diversity but cloning a single genome seems much worse.
If all you do is write code on Linux/Windows/MacOS, C++ strings might be fine. Things are different in the wider world. Many places I use C don't even have a C++ compiler (embedded, in particular).
I was unable to find pictures of either, only Katie Meyer. Could you point me to these pictures?
> When did everyone decide they needed Cloudflare for everything?

I think it was when Reddit and other social link platforms were becoming established, the linked sites would go viral and then the traffic would do an unintended DDOS.

Cloudflare and other providers offered free DDOS protection, then it became a defacto standard to have a CDN

Maintenance doesn’t need to be boring, and I also don’t see how you wouldn’t add interesting new features and improvements to existing products.

The basic issue, it seems, is that the higher-ups simply don’t care about the products themselves, other than for them to serve as a profit center.
I take free USB drives any day. I always test them on the pc that belongs to the coworker that nobody likes first though ;)

In all seriousness though - 128gb usb 3.0 drives can be picked up for $10 on sale all day long. Absolutely no reason to trust some $0.25 random 4gb that a stranger gave you aside from running R-studio on it for fun or something.
"End users" that may want to modify code are pretty much always developers themselves, by definition. By the time they are modifying source code, they are developing. So I'm not sure the distinction FOSS makes between end users and developers is actually meaningful in practice. Also I need it explained to me how an end user is more free to modify under a GPL license than MIT.

> This is definitely not universally true, and it's a red flag if you're hearing it a lot.

not hearing it, seeing it. people don't really have time, will to change processes. In private settings they comment and complain about the inefficiencies, but no one spend time rethinking how things are done. (this is literally what pushed me to go higher in the ladder, so i could change that attitude and environment)

thanks for the free judgment.

> Every manager needs to make a decision on how to best spend their time, and delegation is a critical piece of that.

I am not saying i want to code, and I am not saying I am the saviour of the team. I am saying having to deal with things like your manager asking you to force your team to come to work becase he wants to see the office alive, but not bothering to take the responsibility on the decision. I have had colleagues (managers) taking every day note on who would go in the office and who wouldn't (precovid).
In this case, I paid for the course which includes a PDF. Using Bing I can query the document and get summary information along with page number references. Only a matter of time until we can do the same query for a site and get video timestamps.

Extremely small considering how bad that would be for them.

They already have alienated most of groceries and other online retailers from AWS. wouldn’t make sense for them to do this to others.

Amazon doesn’t have a lack of IP problem, they, like all large companies right now can’t turn ideas into products.

By your logic, user-replaceable filters create a waste stream of "used" filters, and user-replaceable light bulbs create a waste stream of "used" light bulbs.

I personally like nonserviceable batteries because I want my devices to be water resistant, but I'd be more hesitant to throw a battery in the trash than I would be to throw a dead device in the trash.

We created a whole game fairly easily.
Fine, let them destroy their brand altight; but "landfilling" perfectly good hardware for no other reason other than "we can't be bothered" should be made illegal and severely punished. This is the mindset that brought us to blow 420 ppm, and it needs to stop.

Apple abandoned AirPort access points 5 years ago in 2018, and still got security updates a year later. Dammit!
This is a word that continues to be used in product launches, but I can't seem to infer the meaning in the context it's being used.

Is it meant to just mean "made available" so they're simply saying that people can use it now? Or what is it supposed to mean? Before I've only seen it in the context of "introducing democracy" in one or another, but I don't think that's what they mean here, because no one else but Amazon actually controls the product.
I understood that PCA is there as one of the employed ways to augment the input data, then other ways are employed for the analysis of the data - that is where the literal "Artificial Intelligence" happens.

I follow the longevity space a bit and I believe the implication of nucleosomes in the aging process is a new idea?

Wonder why nucleosomes become less frequent as we age ... I know cancer mitigation can sometimes be the reason for these kinds of dimunitions.
I understand that. Then is this just an inherent cultural need for labeling of in-groups vs out-groups, or potential mates vs non-mates? In today's world, there's very little restriction on gender, and most of those restrictions do not change based on changing gender. For example, I can shave my legs and identify as a man, woman, or some other gender, but how does that change what I can and can't do?
Source for this is the Run of World article linked in the document. Their China journalist spoke with recruiters who work on video game illustrator roles and gave background info on the trend and decrease.

I'd like to think this is similar to how Silicon Valley recruiters (the good ones, at least) have a strong pulse on the market and can share trends well in advance of them making it into any mainstream publications like WSJ or NYTimes.
We should prepare for it though. All the existential stuff with AIs killing humans I don’t think is the biggest danger. No work and no money is far more urgent. Even if it doesn’t happen, it can happen, so why not assume it will and change tactics when it’s clear it’s far more sunnier?
It's not 'throw away', it's just (over a couple generations, admittedly) they are objectively better. People want them. The fact that they are being recycled mitigates the horrors of technology improving.
Thanks! I am glad to be in this list too (Mockoon) :)
Yes, doesn't negate my point. Coal is not the alternative to nuclear power and saying so is a big fat lie, the correlation is just not in the data.

People like you dishonestly want to fool people into believing each terawatt hour not generated by nuclear power is compensated by one terawatt hour generated from coal. Because it's lazy and convenient and some people are stupid enough to believe it.
Because then users could just disable anti-features.

They are trying to make "unofficial" synonymous with harmful. Sure the article doesn't outright say that all apps are harmful. But it definitely doesn't make any suggesting that a third-party app from a trusted developer could be ok.

I find that everyone has these quirks, regardless of gender. Sometimes it makes the world a more interesting place. Sometimes it's utterly baffling. Like my friend who refuses to use tissues because his parents taught him to blow his nose with a paper towel instead. Maybe we're the weird ones for believing Big Kleenex's ads though!

One gender difference is that when these quirks are presented to men, they're a bit more likely to change to a more sensible method. Women tend to get annoyed about the male tendency to suggest solutions to everything. Annoyance can motivate stubbornness.
I can pass local newspapers' paywalls by just renaming the URL into [_] amp [dot] html.
That won’t help. How is the general audience suppose to know the difference between “experimental” and “beta”?

Maybe it’s important that they act like a grown up company and have some focus instead of throwing random shit up against the wall like apes in a zoo on a crack.
I'm not saying this is a bad thing. But why $20k? It's obviously not a salary... It could pay for infrastructure if a project needed it, but if the project doesn't... I'm having a hard time understanding how it helps sustain the project. I personally wouldn't do both a full time job and work on an OSS project in all my spare time, for the money. If I really need that project I'm gonna do it regardless, and if I don't need that project, sacrificing all my free time isn't worth $20k.
If everyone was dedicated to greenwashing, would that be better or worse than the current situation?
Sure but what good would a nuclear sub at the center of a black hole be?

Show HN: AI for analyzing developer skill level
Rankode is AI that uses GitHub or existing code to generate a report analyzing programmer skills without coding tests.

Initially, we needed to hire a junior Python developer quickly for our A.I. legal startup. When we got 150 applicants who all basically looked the same on paper we had no idea who to even reach out to. So we looked for quick solutions to our problem and were surprised to see there wasn’t really anything that didn’t involve a ton of set up or taking up valuable time from our Engineers to help in the process. So we put a couple people on our team to the task of using our ML background to solve this problem.

After training our Python models on thousands of lines of code today we are launching Rankode for use by developers, hiring teams, and educators.

With Rankode just paste in the link to a public repository or 500 lines of code.

Rankode's ML models analyze code across 6 categories:

Sample volume -
Quantity of code submitted (we require 500 lines for accuracy)

Original code vs. boilerplate -
How much of the submitted code is originally written by the developer?

Syntax use -
Is the code fluid and understandable, or is it a mumbo-jumbo of sticky and twisty lines of code?

Domain reflection -
How much of the concepts and terminology specific to the application domain are reflected in the code?

Solution clarity -
To what extent the written code is understandable as a description of the idea of solving a problem.

Modular structure -
How well the code’s structure is thought out, designed, and organised on multiple levels.

Even though we first developed Rankode for hiring we’ve been talking to people and finding a few other good use cases like for ongoing performance management (especially for remote teams), and also for educators.

New developers, self-taught devs, or those changing careers see our report as being a useful way to demonstrate to recruiters their skills when they’re applying. Attaching their Rankode report makes it easy for recruiters (especially from non-technical backgrounds) to easily see their skill level and it devs stand out in a sea of newbies.

Since Rankode only analyzes code the results are free from bias and fairer. We think everything you need to know about a developer’s hard skills is in their code.

For our launch, we are giving a free report to anyone who signs up for our newsletter but HN members can email us a hello@rankode.ai and we can get yours without you needing to sign up.

Thanks for any questions or feedback!
Read https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OMEMO I'm guessing it's built on the same idea.
