I will believe that, when C finally gets at very least vocabulary types for safer strings and arrays, instead of reboots of functions with pointer/count.

Plenty of compiler vendors have extensions for safer C. Microsoft introduced similar annotation mechanism like the one being discussed here when Windows XP SP 2 came to be, in 2001.

Apparently 50 years weren't enough to make it happen.

Contrast this with how WG21 looks into security and code safety, enough papers on the subject, specially after the cybersecurity bills started to come about.

Fault of your friend for not keeping a safe distance.

If both drivers only had basic insurance covering damages that aren't your fault, he got nothing and the other driver got paid for having his car damaged by a reckless driver that smashed into his car.

How does your friend even know it was without reason? Maybe a kitten or a squirrel crossed the road.
Yes, absolutely — probably in the sense that it is the MVP of the "Agents" concept from LangChain, built with duct tape.

But it works surprisingly well, because the underlying idea (again, from LangChain) is simply clever.
Unless the landing aircraft is a Concorde or Tu-144, there's no need for a camera system.

Pitch attitude on approach does not cause the nose to block out the runway. Yes, the nose is high in the the moment of flare, but a) the nose of almost any commercial aircraft is not long enough to block the pilots' view of the runway even at that attitude, and b) the moment of flare is far too late to be safely noticing another aircraft occupying your intended runway.

Selective attention or visual confirmation bias (I'm really not sure what the precise cog-psych term would be, sorry) is more likely to be a problem. E.g., 20 seconds out, there is another plane already on the runway, but the flight crew is too focused on their instruments to notice it. Or they look in the right place, but they don't notice the obstacle because in the hundreds or thousands of times they've looked at an approaching runway before, there hasn't been an obstacle. And at that moment the flight crew is much more focused on glidepath and alignment than on obstacle search, so they see the runway but fail to actually notice the obstruction.
I believe it is true in Europe too, it just happens with economic growth.

I.e. where people would buy a lot more utility cars before, they now buy more expensive bigger cars even if they don't need them. Those buying bigger cars are now buying SUVs.

Dacia ate the market of economy cars of FIAT, SEAT, and Pegeot, while those tried to move up market.

That's also why Dacia has the Duster ("SUV for poors") in their line up.
What are you getting next? I’m looking for a large electric SUV/van/truck to complement my model Y (wife keeps taking it instead of using her own car) but the only ones I like are Teslas and Rivians.
Uhm I'd say those assumptions are stupidly obvious. 1) is pretty much tautological - intelligence is optimization. 2) is obvious given human intent is given by high-complexity, very specific values we share but can barely even define, that we're usually omitting in communication, and which you can't just arrive at at random. 3) well, why would you assume an intelligence at level equal or above ours will be easy to steer?

Gulp / Babel and then transition to webpack was my introduction to JS.

Now Vite seems to be all the rage? But is it a bundler?

Wepack seems to be very hard to configure. Looks like nginx config vs caddy config.
I am not sure to understand this dissonance... I owned a model 3 since April 2019, and also I had zero issue. The only time I went to the Tesla center it was to receive the car.
It is so nice to not have to see a car dealer or gas station since April 2019. There is no way I could go back to another car. Even an EV, most of them are ICE cars with electric powertrain, with way too many buttons or dials, and no integration. The iPhone comparison is pretty good. You have to experience it to realize the gap. The software/hardware integration makes the difference, but you have to experience it to fully appreciate it.

> "Let's deprecate and discontinue all of these fragmented UI frameworks. Moving forward, Microsoft will only create UI using Fluent UI."

But then, "Microsoft Bad" because they broke 30+ year old corporate apps many enterprises depend on. Or those same enterprises will then hold onto Windows 10 because "our stuff just works there" and you get even higher fragmentation.

The way to do it would be to redesign the controls in Win32/MFC drawing routines for them to be consistent with Fluent Design, not create yet another UI framework that would supposedly replace it.
Why? You already bought the car lol. This is Ford paying Tesla to enable their car use as well. Those stations probably just became some percentage more profitable

Yep ditto. I don’t believe the hype was all that real until I heard random people having conversations about it while out and about. And then south South Park made an episode about. Pretty clearly gone mainstream.
I'm using GPT3.5 because it is a public facing site running off of my personal credit card. :)

Back when I first started out, GPT-4 was generating more creative stories for sure, and it obeyed instructions better. I have had to do a lot of prompt engineering to make sure GPT3.5 keeps to the format I have specified. If you take a look at the source I linked to, I basically taught GPT3.5 a syntax that uses emojis, which is super cool because in addition to the emojis I gave examples of, GPT3.5 has come up with its own use cases. For example when a princess got exiled, it used a door emoji! Sadly I have had to turn the temperature down to keep things on track, at higher temperatures GPT3.5 tends to forget the syntax.

GPT4 is easier to direct, it follows instructions much better, and the stories are possibly better, but I haven't used it nearly as much for this particular project.

They don't even use more methodological evaluations of fine-tuned LLMs, they use metrics that are specifically built to support a (false) contrarian conclusion in order to generate attention for their "paper."

But, jokes aside, even if you go that Route you still end up with a complex npm project that involves dozens of libraries.

I've been at that point every year since starting doing npm spas in 2014ish (mostly as side projects, my work is typically more serverside). At some point I just decided that the upkeep wasn't worth it any more as you create the same stack every year but with wildly different libs. For me the solution was to switch to an elm+sass+webpack boilerplate that hasn't changed since 2018 or there abouts.

Jerry Nixon is a senior project manager at Microsoft. He made that statement to the press.

Doesn't matter. They pulled a bait and switch. They refund all Windows10 license purchases which were predicated on the expectation of Windows 10 being the last version.

The time period would be from the first time they officially made that claim, all the way till the official announcement of Windows11.

They shouldn't get to claim "This is the last version we will ever release, there will never be anything better", then turn around and shit on the statement.
You're missing the "swap".

Mark-Jason Dominus was the root cause of the "XY" name, inadvertently.

I, Raymond Chen, Charles Cazabon, and Eric S. Raymond didn't use that name at all.

A lot of people foolishly chose to go with "XY", because they thought that what we were saying was silly. I even had bloody foolish people on Stack Exchange complain that I wasn't using the sensible name "XY", when I was one of the people who wrote about this stuff in the first place long before that name appeared. I shouldn't be renaming what was known as the "XY Problem" to silly names, they demanded.

But that was the point that Mark-Jason Dominus and I were making.

Calling it something as mundane as "XY" loses an essential part of the concept, which is that the actual question as posed makes no logical sense and blatantly doesn't fit what the things being asked about do. All of the people complaining that they've posed questions that make logical sense and then been accused of "XY" problems would likely not have been accused of using chocolate covered bananas to integrate European currency systems. It's in part the people who missed our point and pushed to rename to "XY" who have caused all this pain for you who now complain that you're being told that your questions are "XY Problems".

Chocolate covered bananas and European currency systems nicely communicate the fact that it's not just mundane "X" and "Y", but it's two things that prima facie make no logical sense together. I stressed this three times in my FGA. Mark-Jason Dominus used "logically nonsensical" too.

The headlined page here misses this, and waters it down to "seems like a strange problem to want to solve". It's not that the problems are strange and unusual to the answerers.
It's that they are nonsense.

I've never used the "XY" name, myself, and I recommend its avoidance.

There is an upperbound to the amount of contributions due to how slow adding one is because of the computation needed. The goal of the ceremony is to have as many different people contribute as possible. Without protecting against Sybil attacks an attacker can reduce the number of contributors by hogging the limited number of contribution slots that are available during the ceremony.

You can imagine an extreme case of a ceremony only allowing for 5 contributions. Wouldn't you want to have some sort of protection against all 5 of those contributions being from the same person?

Because Norway heavily subsidized EV with exemption from the 25% VAT tax as well as perks like free parking. Which is ironic given they are basically the Nordic Saudi Arabia.
I’m really surprised about this. I live in the capital city of an European country (~50M people) and I don’t think I’ve seen even one, maybe it’s not sold here? I see a fair number of model 3 and a few S, though.
I like the article's push for regulation, as if that isn't just an excuse for the existing big players to erect a moat around their technology to protect it from competition.

By that logic, you also need to accept that no one should ever need to pay you for creating artifacts that are not bound to the physical world solely. I assume you work for free for your employer or in a space that is not “dealing” with data, information, bits, whatsoever.

The ability to go fast does not make it a good cars. In fact, this is mistake that many US carmakers made. As Toyota focused on reliability, their faster competitors ultimately ended up being abandoned since nothing turns away customers like a dead car.

It's because Tesla has so few models. Every other manufacturer has an order of magnitude (or two orders) more models you can buy. Some brands have more EV models than Tesla does.
Also this : https://github.com/apankrat/nullboard
I think it is the goal for all EV companies.
But for instance some had some mechanical issues that required recalls.
And since most car manufacturers used 3rd party parts (Bosch, etc.) they cannot guarantee that there would be no recall (e.g. airbags, etc.).
But so far my model 3 (April 2019) did not get a single recall. And during those 4 years I did not have to change anything but a flat tire. It is a peace of mind to know that there are so fewer ways to break the car, than with a ICE.
The Model Y has the tiniest rear window in human history, presumably for this reason.
Gamers can be pretty toxic, but I feel this this post is projecting a little much. It's not like the market in general is broken. AMD is releasing great cards and Intel is catching up fast. The value proposition of GeForce cards is just not there.

> I might be going against the grain here, but the JS ecosystem is just a series of goalposts that are constantly moving

Welcome to real life.

Beware the ecosystem that does not change (COBOL).
The worst developers (as in bad practices, poor code quality, communication problems, zero care for product and just focus on tech, and extreme over or under engineering solutions) that I've found in my 20 year career also happened to be the ones blaming their tools instead of looking at their own practices, skills and beliefs.

Not saying this is the case because I don't know you, but that's been the common theme for a long time.

It's like hearing a carpenter complaining their hammer is just not good and nobody should use hammers and they should instead use a screwdriver because everyone knows how bad and outdated hammers are.
> just continually throw away old versions in nixpkgs head

It is simply completely infeasible to store and build every version of every package.

While it is not user friendly to find a package’s version X, it is either just overriding the version field and the hash, or referencing another version of the nixpkgs tree and building the same package from there.

It’s not trivial with other package managers either, and on top you can easily get into inconsistent states with those — nix can handle any version of any software correctly.
I found Metr...Modern looked alright in staged screenshots but most apps were terrible in their actual UX. It was maximum mystery meat UI and no one could seem to decide how that UI should behave. UX is not just looks but behavior.
I just look at some of their design for Teams [1], which is something I am forced to used everyday along with Outlook. They are finally ( at least I hope those are final design ) not taking away my vertical space with endless layers / rows of buttons. The absolute maximum I could take is three layers, as shown in the Excel screen shots.

I also cant remember the last time I was excited about design from Microsoft. May be it was Windows XP.

My only concern is Microsoft has a tradition of messing it up when they ship it. And in typical Microsoft tradition you are likely getting Fluent 2 on top of Fluent 1 and then Metro, Aero or even Win 95 design All in one. I just wish they could release a more coherent system at the expense of backward computability. May be targeting Chromebook OS market, where backward compatibility isn't as much as a concern.

So.. your complaint is that Tesla has been a multi-brand charging laggard? That Tesla could have and should have opened their chargers a lot sooner than they did through software updates since they were already using compatible hardware?

Yes, that's true.
I think the Supercharger network was a significant competitive advantage. With the news today that Ford will be adopting NACS in the near future for North American vehicles, I do think their EV options will start to become more compelling.
On the one hand I see the appeal of staying inside, say, Django the whole time and getting 3x done.

This is my problem with a lot of HN comments about JS: they read like they were written in 2014 (see also the “a new framework every week!” jokes)

ES2015 was the one big language update, and although it took a while to all roll out and for older browsers to die off, at this point we’re now living in “the future” and almost all language changes are incremental.

Like, you can write ES modules with async/await and run it in all modern browsers without any compilation. If you add an HTML import-map element you can even import node_modules by name.

Now, most people still prefer to use a bundler so that their users can load a single script instead of dozens of tiny ones, but that’s optional, and the gap between “the code you write” and “code that runs in the browser” hasn’t been this small in years.
That's a use case, but for from the best. Nix lets you create immutable, reproducible packages/OSs/deploys--and can be built on arbitrary fleets of machines with shared caches. Just bringing in tools to the developer environment means the distribution of its tools is immutable but everything you plan to do with it inside that environment is mututable. The forest is missed for the trees if folks think dev shells are the killer feature.
I look forward to each redesign because it means one more style gets added onto the heap of inconsistent UI. You can have window dialogues with UI elements from most of the NT eras open at the same time.
