System Shock had some of the worst controls ever in a game.

It's a real pity because the underlying game was quite modern for the time.

The problem with the controls was very soon resolved with the arrival of Duke Dukem 3d, which used mouse for moving your view/camera around and keys or right mouse button for moving forward.

System Shock might have done better if it had the Duke3D style controls instead of the awful controls that it had.
Do they self-identify as AI bros? Or are you just choosing to call them that?

The benefits are that (a) JMAP is superior to IMAP in ways that really affect end-users of email clients, and (b) as opposed to other high-performance email protocols, JMAP is an open standard.

> if Gmail adopted jmap and added proprietary APIs to it, wouldn't we end up where we are now?

The promise is that vendors would be able to use JMAP out of the box.
The value prop is that you can self-host it at all, which JIRA now discontinued unless you pay ~$50k per year.

Within 3 seconds of reading the GitHub page I was sold. It’s already on my todo list for next week.
The argument here --- and we'll see how well it holds up on appeal --- is that searching a cellphone at the border is a little like driving to your house after your cross the border and searching it before they let you leave the border crossing.
The article actually talks about all of this and explains the why. Without repeating everything, the supreme court already makes this exception for cellphones domestically -as in police can search, let's say, a car but need warrant for the cellphone in the car. Makes sense to extend the same distinction to the border. That's all what the EFF is asking. But SC has refused to take it up.
Okay, but have you used CORBA?

Native Spanish speaker that builds software for English speaking markets: I don't think I would write a software or make screenshots where I would think first to put names like Juan or Pedro in them if the target audience is English speakers.

When you're writing English it just feels like the names flow better, that's all (like, avoiding stutter in a sentence, but with names). I don't think it would be fair to say we're just not honoring our roots
Now that the industrial design and manufacturing are figured out, Philips could do a number of additional things with NFC. (Especially with network access, possibly through an app, and more securely with a different NXP chip.)
SSV is more a verification technology rather than a data integrity one. It will detect bitflips but it’s really designed to have an immutable root image for the OS, so you can wipe the data partition easily and have a clean, untampered OS image to boot from.
> Not that Apple Maps, like Google Maps, pulls in data volunteered by the OSM... then locks it away

You have that backwards, at least for some companies.

> How Facebook, Apple and Microsoft are contributing to OSM

At the State of the Map conference in Milan, the teams from Microsoft, Apple and Facebook presented their projects, describing how they are working with communities.

https://www.theodi.org/article/how-are-facebook-apple-and-mi...

I've never seen any cite for Google contributing their data to OSM.
I'll start by saying that I think ours is an honest difference of opinion (or actually even weaker: a difference of speculation) in a very uncertain space. With that out of the way:

When I watched that congressional hearing, what I saw was identical to every other oh-so-concerned executive of an incumbent dominant businesses in any other industry. I truly see no reason to give them any more benefit of the doubt than the CEO of Exxon expressing concern about climate change or of Philip Morris expressing concern about lung cancer. And just like in those cases, it's not that the concern isn't legitimate, it's that they aren't credible people to have leading the charge against it. I suspect that is obvious to you in the other two cases, so I ask you: why do you draw a different conclusion here? Do you believe tech executives are just fundamentally more ethical than the executives in other industries? I simply don't think that's accurate.

I also think this is credulous:

> They are calling for future very large models, which they themselves are currently the most likely to train due to the enormous computational cost, to be regulated.

I've highlighted the part I think is wrong. What is actually happening is that lots of people are finding lots of different ways to undermine that thesis and, having already sunk huge costs in the currently productized models, and also in the next generation, these companies are worried about getting undercut by "good enough" cheaper and mostly open models.

Have you read "we have no moat and neither does openai" that came out of Google? This is what that's talking about.

Trying to regulate those models out of existence before they can undercut them is just rational business, I don't begrudge them doing it, it's their job. But it's up to the rest of us to not just go along to get along.
I think LLMs should be used with basically the same stipulations in any field. The words it outputs are usually valid English, but not necessarily accurate, so it's good for brainstorming but needs to be fact-checked. Overall, whether it's useful depends on whether the time required for the latter is less than the time you save with the former. Personally, I've found them most useful as a way to provoke myself into Cunningham's Law, essentially relying on the fact that they make shit up. https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Cunningham%27s_Law

Evidence and due process are important for convicting someone of a crime. You're not violating a basic human right when you deny a credit card transaction. The requirement for evidence and due process should be far lower, if even needed at all.

My wife and I moved aboard a sailboat in 2012, we made more new friends over the next 2 years that we were in and out of St Augustine than we had made in a long time. That community was so welcoming that years after we left the boat we moved there and it is our permanent home. There are sailing communities like this all over the US east coast and Caribbean.
Yes, they did, but only after my parent comment was resurrected from being grayed out at the bottom of the page.

I wasn't trying to turn anyone into a boogeyman, but I have watched more than enough outrage parades on HN that turned out to be in support of a scoundrel. If we can establish the expectation that you're fully upfront about the details, then we as a community can avoid repeats of those events while still helping people like OP who are genuinely confused.
It sucks that so often the various troubles here are true, but it also sucks that we are so hopelessly fatalistic & degrading about passion.

This post covers most of the typical angles, and they're all bad, all roundly degrade everyone with passion. The possibility of the Joyous Warrior (who isn't also a hopeless mess to work with or a terrible bore with no life or otherwise awful) isn't permitted.

I personally like to temper myself with a little more optimism. Leaving the box open for hope, too, seems reasonable. And I feel like I've met so many people who might not be as maximally obsessed, but who do really relish the incredible fantastic wide open world in which software devs get to tred & lead the ways.

Of all the stupid tech terms in the world, for some reason “data lakehouse” grates horribly in my head every time I hear it.
If I were still able to edit my original comment, I would add a note at the bottom that says to take the experience as a casual person downloading an AI app after hearing about it on the news.

Such as a lawyer who’s not particularly tech savvy.

The main point is it’s irresponsible to trust LLM output for any critical/important purpose because it’s not perfect. But too many first time users think it is perfect and trustworthy at face value, when it’s not.

I don’t actually know the version since I was interacting via an unofficial iOS app using some LLM under the hood. It may not have even been ChatGPT.
> I must press too hard

a dental hygienist told me to hold it with just the thumb and forefinger.

I can't quite manage that, but if you look at how drummers hold their sticks, it's never in a fist. Their arms wouldn't last through one show like that.

So if you at least take your little finger off it, the amount of pressure goes down.
Imagine how bloody annoying it would be if we had to bring a bag full of empty glass bottles to the supermarket every time we wanted them refilled. Thank God for plastic

Aren't switches to temporarily bypass emissions controls in cars illegal, despite being a feature customers ask for?

> What laws do you want written?

I want all e-fuses to be banned, as well as any other means for manufacturers to permanently reduce, restrict, or remove functionality from products after they've been sold.

> How "secure" am I allowed to make my product before the Feds come a-knockin'?

If the one you're trying to make it "secure" against is the product's owner, then I'd say "not at all" would be a fine answer.

> And what does a "factory reset" accomplish? The hacker trying to get company IP (or whatever the password is protecting) gets three more attempts at it after the reset?

The point is that the factory reset would delete the company IP.

> Finally, and I'm not saying this makes it okay, but e-fuses are common as dirt these days. I don't know that you're going to get that toothpaste back in the tube.

Wasn't asbestos also as common as dirt before it was banned?
> even if they were walking around handing out checks for 25k I doubt they'd have gotten a good chunk of these folks.

if the corporations in question get world governments to line up the way they want, the checks for everyone in these "letters" will be *way* bigger than 25k and they won't have "payment for signing our letter" in the memo either.

No, they are 100% correct. People who want to enter the country are not visitors in the US, by definition. And the comment didn’t say that even aspiring visitors to the US have no rights - it said they have no right to enter the country.

Interest in SQL with IndexedDB and Web Storage in Web Browsers?
I shared my project, GlueSQL, for the first time yesterday night in my time zone, and I was a bit sad to see no reactions. I know that can happen, but there's something I'm really wondering about.

In our newest version, we've added a cool feature. Now you can use SQL in web browsers with in-memory, localStorage, sessionStorage, and IndexedDB. Even better, you can make tables in different storages and join them all together. This was a big reason why I started GlueSQL, so I thought lots of people would be interested. But so far, not much response.

Don't people want to use SQL with the storage options that are already in their web browsers? Personally, I think this would be super useful for building complex web front-end applications.
You're making so many incoherent disconnected points that I'm not sure what you're actually trying to say.

> We don't do this because that really makes existing stakeholders scared for their current property values

As far as I can tell, opposition that comes from concern for housing values tends to be hyperlocal rather than systemic -- most people don't oppose building substantial volumes of housing somewhere, it's mostly when it's not somewhere else.

But the other thing is that the market doesn't like building housing above certain volumes either. Developers have limited capital and capacity and for any given outlay they'd like the highest return possible. Overproduce and you get diminishing marginal returns or maybe even unpurchased/unleased housing stock. Lagging demand some amount is probably the easiest way to optimize this.
Humans could decide to do either of those things. Should we regulate the bounds of human thought to prevent this?

How is Chicago within this given no international border in Lake Michigan?
I work out somewhat between 9-12 hours per week consistently (weights, yoga, running, muay-thai). It also makes me feel quick(er), more energetic and relaxed. Of course there is a physical aspect to it as well, I look great. And a mental and cognitive one too. Knowing that I can push through quite some physical strain, makes me realize that the mental strains, stressors and problems I face on a daily basis aren't all that different. What keeps me going is seeing the benefits accrue over time, but it also was hard for me to get started ... but all did start with a tiny habit 10 years ago, you don't have to go all out on a routine in a gym, or boring yourself to death with something you don't like. There are enough options.
it's true, React, Angular and other popular heavy frameworks aren't designed to serve the programmer, they're designed to serve the organization that owns the codebase by making turnover easier. They force a specific approach and layout new hires can be familiar with, regardless of if it's even a good idea for the application at hand.

Obviously that would be the jackpot: Somebody working at Etsy, helping me understand WHY exactly the account was banned and not only the product (which would probably have been an option?!?).

Give me back the account, I will come up with something else to design and sell, that's okay.

But nuking the whole account and keeping the money while warning/prohibiting me to create another account is just shitty.

Just about any ticketing system (including the established open-source ones) could be described as an "alternative to JIRA", even if bare-bones, so you might be better off describing the unique capabilities or UX that makes this one special. (And if mentioning JIRA at all, say what you offer to people converting -- $dayjob would probably be interested in one that seamlessly imports tickets with extra custom attributes and custom workflow which refers to them, but implementing that is not an easy lift.)
This may very well change. I won't be surprised to see react have to become more opinionated about days fetching now that they are dancing between client and server with some form of an rpc.

For performance and security I could see them pushing for all data loading to be done on the server, complete with helpers and server-only hooks for fetching and streaming data from the server.
Now tackle broad non-disclosure agreements, that seem to be intended to have the same effect as non-competes.
My VW car does this all the time - particularly in the rain. Including when my kid is in the car. Fun times.

Incidentally the last VW I will ever own. Although I doubt other modern cars are any better.

I’m fascinated by the use of advanced software systems in the context of human safety. What manufacturers seem not to understand - or perhaps do understand but face competitive pressures to ignore - is that when human lives are in the balance, a 99% success rate isn’t good enough. It has to be unreasonably close to 100%, or people will learn not to trust it, they will come to hate it, and they won’t but your product. Self-driving strikes me as folly for that reason.

Another example - also from my VW - are the audible proximity sensors. They are calibrated to panic when you get even remotely close to anything. Maybe that’s okay in the US, but here in Asia, it’s mostly false positives from normal driving in a space-constrained environment. It renders them completely useless. Am I actually dangerously close to something? Don’t know. As a result I just ignore them completely, then bitch about their shitty product on HN.

The whole paragraph except for the first and last sentences may have been composed using an LLM.

> All attorneys appearing before the Court must file on the docket a certificate attesting either that no portion of [...] or that any language drafted by generative artificial intelligence was checked for accuracy, using print reporters or traditional legal databases, by a human being [...] held responsible under Rule 11 for the contents of any filing that he or she signs and submits to the Court, regardless of whether generative artificial intelligence drafted any portion of that filing

Asking the attorneys to re-acknowledge that documents they file are their official entries into the record, no matter what programs are used to generate them, makes sense in principle as a way to preempt the "algorithm told us to" argument.
