I agree which is why I phrased my answer the way I did (apologies that I wasn't very clear about that), but I don't think the claim is really analogous to "2 sexes, male and female. Simple and true." (not that you claimed that, just what someone above us said). The equivalent claim would be something like "humans are a sexually dimorphic species" which I think is of course true.

All to say, I don't really care much about these claims in isolation, I care when someone says e.g. "there are two sexes, so we shouldn't let trans people transition". Those conversations are a context where edge cases, caveats, and complexities all play a huge role.

Neat! I'm sure that was no small transition. Out of curiosity, did you move to Core Text, TextKit, or TextKit 2?
My company is also forcing people to RTO even when there are multi hundreds of open opposition (and probably a thousand more silent opposition).

As the article suggests, top performers can pick jobs anywhere and anytime. Even a depression as bad as 1929 still maintains about 60% employment. RTO will just drive away two kinds of people: top performers who prefer remote work, and people who are OE. Even for the second group, they are still good performers as they can handle two jobs without being noticed.

Either way, only those inexperienced and coasting are going to stay. Good luck pushing out projects then.

Hey bro... do you want some...MONEY!

Neat proof of concept. I think what you'd want to do is have some form of dom vs component diffing, and traverse the old dom and only create new elements if you find a node type mismatch.

Consider this, you have a slider input, and oninput, you update the state, which creates a new slider input, which causes your mouse drag to get invalidated.

Another consideration - a textarea where you update state each keystroke; will that reset the cursor or have unintended consequences?

> I thought this was the case, until I saw how identical all of the messages were, including the order of the bullet points.

This has always been the case for all corporate fanbois on Twitter. As an ancient example: there was a time when Steve Jobs proclaimed that 3.5" screens were the perfect size, and 5.5"/6" phones were too big(!!). This was followed by suspiciously similar talking points recirculating in the "iPhone Twitter" echo-chamber[0]: including the same doctored image[1] that compared thumb-coverage of a 3.5' iPhone vs the Galaxy Note (IIRC). I don't think Apple was directly paying people to say those things: they simply confirmed their biases and they felt compelled to share the "truth".

0. Trended on Twitter, and even appeared on blogs written by Apple superfans like Marco Arment and Gruber

1. The phones were not to scale and the image was inaccurate in a way that was unfavorable towards the non-iPhone phablet.

> Variable length instructions are not as trivial to decode wide, so you need more cleverness here. However, fixed length instructions decrease code density

This is true in theory but I question how much it applies to current CPUs. A problem I see is that the x86 instruction set was designed in the 1970s with corresponding assumptions about instruction frequency, speed of memory, number of CPU cycles, pipelining (or lack thereof), addressing modes, etc. Even if the variable-length encoding was close to optimal back then, there's no way it's remotely optimal given all the extensions to the instruction set, the change from hand-coded assembly to compiler-generated code, and many more seismic shifts in the ISA. So I think x86's variable-length instructions now have all the downsides of complicated decoding as well as the downsides of suboptimal code density. But you also can't reshuffle all the instructions and addressing modes without breaking backward compatibility.

Hey, author here.

Yeah, the initial idea was to uncover globally significant news, but a lot of people are asking for ways to find "locally important" or "industry important" news. So I'm shifting my direction a little bit.

It's currently possible to filter news by broad category in a paid version (health, science, tech). I plan to expand the list of categories, so it's possible to go deeper.
I also plan to add news in other languages (translated) and add country filters, so it's possible to see only news related to individual country/region.
You can't accidentally commit tax fraud. Fraud requires intent. Errors on forms are not fraud.

Yes if your tax situation is simple, the IRS already knows everything. In many other cases (even something pretty common like self-employment income) they do not know, and you have to tell them.

The government knows about your main itemized deductions like mortgage interest. Then it can just compare it with your standard deduction and select the one that is greater.

Of course, you might still want to amend that, but as the first pass it can be quite accurate.
In Canada's capital Ottawa, this has been pushed for by the municipal government. Office workers downtown were what kept most of the overpriced, mediocre, restaurants, franchises and coffee shops afloat. These places are often the only convenient option for office workers. Nobody would ever go to these by choice - they are only ever open 9-5 Monday to Friday - so they needed the government to step in and force their customers back to the office.
If your workload demands it, then by all means set log.flush.interval.messages=1 or find an alternative solution that is a better match for your requirements.

Show HN: Convert a Subreddit into a Podcast
Hello HN community,

I'm excited to introduce Crowdcast (https://github.com/AdmTal/crowdcast), a project I launched over the weekend.

Crowdcast is an open-source, crowd-sourced, AI-generated podcast creator that turns a subreddit into a podcast. It is specifically configured for my subreddit, "crowdcast".

Every week, the top three comments from the weekly stickied thread on the subreddit are converted into a podcast episode. We also sprinkle in some user-submitted, humorous fake ads for a unique touch of community flavor.

The goal of Crowdcast is to foster community engagement and demonstrate how AI can automate content creation in a fresh, entertaining way.

Crowdcast is built with Python, utilizing various AI technologies to transform text into speech. The code is open-source and available on GitHub for those interested in the inner workings or willing to contribute.

Every week, we commit the scripts for the shows to the GitHub repo. You can also listen to the podcast at https://www.buzzsprout.com/2188164/share to get a taste of the final product.

The next show will be posted on 5/19, and I can't wait to hear what it turns out to be!

I'd greatly appreciate any feedback, comments, or suggestions. Your thoughts on the concept, the implementation, or ideas for future improvements would be invaluable.

and the collapse of bison population was multi-causal, attributing it all to an effort to get rid of native americans is frankly ahistorical.

Bison decline was already decidedly in the cards by the time colonizers started large-scale hunting of them, due to the introduction of the horse and the rifle among tribal communities (the popular depiction of plains native americans as long-term bison hunters is a western conjuration not based in reality).

there is a tendency in pop (progressive) history journalism to use the fact that someone said something as evidence that this was the primary motivator for why people did the things they did. (see, for instance, the 1492 project).

I support the right of businesses to make decisions of that kind, but I do not have to agree with them.

As opposed to shrieking "bloody murder, the commies are coming for our tweets, are they going to shoot us next, we are being muzzled." The drama that came with a business decision was just over-the-top.

So if you think is fine, okay, but I don't want to hear an outrage ever again about someone being deplatformed. It's not against the law or the Constitution.

This is because every member of that consortium uses some combination of dark patterns and nonsensical restrictions to divert users away from the free option towards their pay options.

He’ll attempt to mislead them into thinking their chat bot is “intelligent” and that openai “doesnt understand how it works”. And somehow “freeing” people form their jobs is good for the economy, and doing so by stealing their ip is even better.

The problem isn't the accessibility of Git. I agree that it's easy enough to set up a Github account today.

I've been somewhat of a Git evangelist. I've tried and failed countless times to convince people of the utility of version control. Perhaps I'm just a poor teacher, but in my experience, the features that make version control useful are too esoteric for most people to grasp.

This may come off as arrogant and jaded, but I would speculate that at least 50% of the population is incapable of learning Git without extensive coaching. That's not to say it couldn’t be useful for most people; it's just that they can’t envision Git’s utility for themselves.

Utilizing version control to combat AI generated papers would require students and teachers have a deep enough understand of git to break their work up into small commits and branches. I don’t see that happening outside of the CS departments of big 10 schools.

How would you know if you're going to take the standard deduction without doing your taxes?

People wealthy enough to even think that their deductions might exceed the standard deduction are not only in the vast minority, they're also wealthy enough that paying for TurboTax isn't an issue because they have their accountant do the taxes.

IOW, you're optimizing for the exception, not the majority case.
Does it really matter if you have or don’t have ADHD? It seems like what should matter most is if taking the medication improves your overall health and well-being (after accounting for any side-effects). I could only imagine it being a negative if it masks some other underlying phenomenon which left unaddressed prevents you from attaining your global maximum of life satisfaction.

It seems likely the amount of harmful abuse prevented by stricter policies would be overshadowed by the amount of positive treatment which is no longer dispensed. If you’re diagnosed and you don’t find medication helpful, you’re not obligated to continue taking it. You discuss it with your provider, you look into alternatives, and you keep eliminating things until you find the best way to cope with whatever issue you have.

That being said I’m totally biased, I had a pretty bad experience with trying to find treatment myself. The first nurse practitioner I saw didn’t diagnose me with ADHD and I ended up dealing with it for another two years until being frustrated enough to follow up again. Then, the first appointment I made was abruptly canceled by the doctor, who sent a message saying that I can schedule another appointment but that they weren’t likely to disagree with their colleagues assessment. This put me off for another few months, led me to waste time seeking out-of-network alternatives who intended to charge me absurd amounts of money for assessments, until I finally managed to find a doctor at the original clinic who was pretty appalled at their colleagues message, and looked at my original responses and didn’t understand why the first practitioner hadn’t diagnosed me with ADHD. She figured exploring if medication would alleviate my symptoms and improve my quality of life that it was worth pursuing. I started on Vyvanse and life is definitely a lot more manageable now.

One that follows all the HN rules and guidelines.

The majority of passing readers disagree with the alleged reading considering that they have not saw fit to downvote my previous comments.

So I think it's fair to say this is mostly, or entirely, in your own imagination.

To put it in a different way:

Imputing intentions to another HN user can at best cause an account's legitimacy, credibility, veracity, etc., to remain the same.

It's not possible for it to be boosted.

And given the already moderately suspicious nature of a pseudonymous 69 day old account with so much karma, it's far more likely to reduce it.
0 never should have been overloaded in C to refer to the NULL pointer. With pointer assignment and comparison it transforms to the platform's encoding for NULL which isn't necessarily all zeros. No other literal has this sort of magic.
If we're adding detail to the story because we think the reader might not be aware of why there weren't many bison left, I'm not sure:

> Bison had become nearly extinct due to genocide by European settlers

is going to help. Any reader who'd benefit from specifying why bison had been largely wiped out, probably won't connect the dots here, and will instead read that as genocide against bison. Readers who read "genocide" as referring to "genocide against indigenous people, part of which was eradication of bison" didn't need any of this called out to begin with.
And it should be required to file a tax return only when those kinds of situations actually apply to you. The majority of the population doesn't actually have those concerns.
The only thing worse than a public monopoly is where you have to navigate both a public monopoly, and a private monopoly, which is how taxes work in the US.

That was the initial idea. Significant events don't stop being significant once we get tired of hearing about them.

But there's definitely a problem of duplicates. When separate news sites post about a similar event it get rated relatively similar by ChatGPT, which creates clusters like we see today.

I want to solve this soon by combining similar stories into single block with one title.

What a horribly written article. They barely mention what the unboxed model is. They compare it to lean manufacturing, only to explain that it's a stupid comparison. The only negative argument for this "debate" is that it'll be hard to keep the parallel production lines in sync, as if that's not a factor for the +10k parts that go into cars to begin with.
That sounds really neat. I spent a couple weeks trying to publish all my notes using org-mode, and it was pretty frustrating to find all these key bindings on the net that didn't actually work in my setup. A bare setup where you could opt-in to keybinding "packages" with a global way to see conflicts would be cool.
