> Also the arguments regarding colorblind crowd being unable to distinguish colors are weak

Especially since accessibility in terminal environments simply isn't a thing. The terminal is a grid of cells that contain individual characters. Screen readers and other accessibility tools cannot know whether those characters constitute runs of text or separators, they cannot know which texts belong together, what their semantic relation is, etc. etc.

If accessibility is something you care about, don't write TUI programs. The two concepts are irreconcilable. Proper accessibility requires semantic labeling of visual output, and the terminal display protocol doesn't provide that capability. Hand-wringing about a specific aspect like color blindness only serves to avoid discussing the elephant in the room, which is that TUI programs are fundamentally not accessible.
There are lots of factors that can influence PE but if your long term investing thesis is that retail traders will always love NVDA the most (and won't move on to the next hype train, as they did with TSLA and many others) that seems... unlikely?

If you can predict the next hype cycle or when exactly this one will end, you will make a zillion dollars.

If you are talking about entire markets rather than individual companies then p/e matters because the only examples we have of markets with extreme p/e ratios all ended in disaster.

You should still buy stocks for the long term regardless of PE ratios because you're right, it's not possible to predict what they'll do. Unfortunately when you buy at a high pe you can't anticipate as much return in the future, all else equal.
Are you suggesting symptom-free people who still tested positive didn't actually have it?

Because I suspect for every asymptomatic person who only know they had it due to a positive test (maybe they were being cautious following a possible exposure), there are more asymptomatic people who never thought to get tested, and therefore don't know they had it.
That nothing supernatural steps in to prevent this, exposes clearly that the only one that can build a better world is "I" and only "I". No rewards, no afterlife prizes, no recognition, only a clear sense of responsibility for the whole, because if "I" don't do it then who? It is incomprehensible lack of consciousness that continues to this day to create this psychopathic madness in what could otherwise be a planet paradise.

What are our governments spending money on?

How is this possibly a profit-making private enterprise unless it's funded by government?

It feels like outsourcing a pre-crime department. If this industry exists outside of normal law enforcement it needs unbelievably tight regulation.

What powers do these private companies think they have?

Do they pass information on to actual law enforcement, and if so, does actual law enforcement do any checks and balances on the information they're receiving?

I don't know if this is next level paranoia or just another scary angle of the same level of paranoia post-911.

I'd also like to be employed by the government to play games and chat online:

FBI and CIA spies had created fake personas to hunt for potential terror plots discussed in online games, such as World of Warcraft and Second Life, as well as on platforms like Xbox Live. Those initiatives fizzled after the intelligence agencies found little to no evidence of terror communications.

I'm interested in arguments that may justify this existing as private industry.

Edited to add: I like how the single sentence quote from an FBI official needed to include not one, but two, [sic]s.

And

“detect threat actors when they are young or starting out at 14 or 15, that's when I start observing and documenting their malicious activities.”

Talk about justifying the very activity the teenagers are engaging in, ie. fuck authority.

I feel like I want to educate the teens to be smarter, in both their life choices and opsec. I certainly hope law enforcement doesn't treat these teenagers with the blunt object that law enforcement is stereotyped to only be equipped with.
I’m sure there are spies even in HN too, why do you think all governments of all political views are against encryptions and actively trying to have some sort of a backdoors in there, part of it to save the cost/time of these infiltrations.

the argument is that the car company becomes something like China mixed with North Korea, big, powerful, uncaring, unavoidable, with a lot of resources, expansionist, etc.

car companies, however misaligned they are, are not particularly smart, nor are they generally intelligent. they are paperclip maximizers, but that's also their limitations (sell more cars). it took an eccentric madman to even open their eyes to a new untapped market (EVs!), of course we can argue that before Tesla car makers were in a metastable equilibrium, and incumbents were unable to rationally break out of it ... but that just shows how narrow their search space is.

these car companies are run by humans, regulated by humans, etc. they are pretty well aligned. it shows because we saw that they are just mimeing self-improvement. we know they were working on EVs, but very half-heartedly. (because they are risk averse, also because regulators don't let them merge into one giant company, etc)
This is how it happens in Spain: public doctors work from 8:00 to 15:00, with long queues. The same doctor has a private office from 16:00 to 20:00, where the queue is almost zero.

Not familiar with the reference but I would describe it as similar to the classic Midwest/Minnesota/Wisconsin “ohyooobetcha” parody, but more dour/deadpan in delivery, and almost with a lilt. People from Saskatchewan would say Saskatchuwun, “we are” becomes “were” exclusively, “you” becomes “yeh” (as opposed to classic Midwest “yuu” or “yah”). I’ve had people tell me, and noticed it in other children-of-Montanans, that it’s reminiscent of a Scottish/Irish manner of speaking, which makes sense as my great great grandad emigrated from Ireland to Butte in the 1800’s, as did many Irish people at the time.
Are the inputs and the responses in a non English language? LLM APIs can get costly for non English, sometimes as much as 10x due to more tokens being consumed. Not sure what's the solution here.

Also, maybe you can use sometime kind of caching combined with some mbeddongd search to serve the previous response, if the input is similar above a certain threshold.
It's quite possible that nobody at Google actively looked into this. I don't know what would be the outcome if Nintendo sent Google a cease & desist regarding this.
That's totally reasonable, imo. To relate, earlier today I was talking with Spectrum support because after a simple service transfer a TV package was mysteriously added to my bill. When I called to have it removed the agent presented me with several options that would improve my service for no immediate extra cost (i.e. what if we have Banksy paint a mural on your house). I told the agent that I would prefer to have things stay the same as I've always had them. I don't want any surprises, I don't want any "special deals". I just (edit: typo) *want things to go back to how they were before you complicated them.

> let the grid fail once a decade

This means people dying. To move people to a community hall you need enough transportation, clear roads, working communication, and many other things that are indirectly relying on power being available or the disaster plans working properly. (Which they sometimes won't) Also this would have to work for everyone at risk - not for the number of deaths we know about, but likely 100x that.

You can't ignore the effects of that once-a-decade failure and hope things will work fine.

One of the main problems preventing human cloning is the trouble getting enough eggs.

Are nuclear weapons that special? I am not saying 'are nuclear weapons really that bad', I fully believe they are horrifying. But I am asking 'are nuclear bombings that much worse than other mass bombings'. Consider the firebombing campaigns, Dresden, etc. Those were also indescribably horrible to live through.

I see an argument that nuclear bombs are 'too easy to use', making their existence horrible. But I don't see why the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki get a special place (other than symbolic) when compared to other mass bombings of population centers. All such bombings are horrifying and evil.

Wouldn't it be almost impossible to hit a duplicate when the users each form their own question?

Another issue I see is that these chat AIs usually have "history", so the question might be the same, but the context is different: the app might have received "when was he born", but in one context, the user talks about Obama and in another, she talks about Tom Brady.

If there are ways around these issues, I'd love to hear it, but it sounds like this will just increase costs via cache hardware costs and any dedup logic instead of saving money.

It helps eliminate benign anomalous results in emergencies. I have a low neutrophil count. It is totally uneventful. Having that baseline means if I’m sick and have the works run, doctors need not start treating my neutropenia—that wasn’t caused by whatever is going on.

More broadly, catching a vitamin D deficiency and allergy early probably saved some years of life and definitely improved my quality of life.

Some doctors are test happy. Most are not. Finding the right fit is part of being a human in the midst of modern healthcare.

Here's the discussion of the most recent update: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=36019485
There was an article on HN that asked the question "why was a second bomb dropped". The conclusion was that the plan was to drop many nuclear bombs, and it was presidential intervention that limited it to two. Due to miscommunication the president didn't even know about the second bomb until after the fact.

Improving your skills is always relevant. I think The Pragmatic Programmer's advice to learn a new programming language every year is aspirational but still good -- I've tried to learn a new language every few years for the past couple of decades.

That's how I came across Clojure back in 2010 and I've ended up using it in production ever since 2011 and I consider it my primary language these days.

Given how nearly all mainstream languages have adopted features from functional programming languages, I definitely think there's value in improving those skills, and working with a range of languages that are functional-first, including immutable data structures, lazy evaluation, and so on. Mastering these concepts will make you a better programmer overall, regardless of what language is your day-to-day "home" because you will think about problem solving in a more diverse way.

The link "Debate over the bomb" in the section named "Controversy" is broken.

As a child, I was taught that these bombings stopped the war in Asia. For decades, I thought it the truth. Then I learned that most historians thought it false, and they had facts to assert that bombing Hiroshima and Nagasaki had little impact on the war itself.

Japan knew the war was lost, but wanted to negotiate with the USA in order to keep their oldest colony, in Korea, and also keep their imperial ruler. They knew that a democracy would get reluctant to send their soldiers to fight on the ground, even more so against fanaticized civils. The Japanese government thought that the deaths in the bombings was a price to pay for these objectives (Korea and emperor), and anyway the incendiary bombings of cities built with wood killed more civilians than the nuclear bombs.

What ended the war was that the USSR suddenly broke their no-aggression pact with Japan. On that same day soviet troops invaded Japanese Mongolia. Then Korea. Then the north islands of Japan. At this point, the Japanese government knew that the soviet power did not fear sending their troops in a bloody occupation and that the only alternative was an immediate surrender to the other side, the USA.

The story of the bombs that stopped the war was a lie that pleased everybody. The Japanese government could claim it was protecting its population, and setting Japan as a victim was a way to shift the focus far from their war crimes. The USA government could claim it detained the most powerful weapons and that their sole power could end wars.
