Surely, normal people get exhausted and burned out with how many accounts they need to create on all the platforms, just to stay in touch with everyone in their circle of friends. It was already crazy for me in the 90s days of Instant Messaging, and pidgin was a Godsend to consolidate all those accounts and friends-list into one interface. Surely normal people hate on the sheer volume of apps they need to install on a phone with limited storage.

I know a few people who are on exactly one platform, and don't mind it, but most everyone seems to need tendrils all over the place to keep up with a normal Internet social life.
Younger but very similar. Read A to S. I started T and went to college.

I think it cost about $2.5k.

What's odd is my parents never read it as they were illiterate.

I found most of the topics were very short. Going in depth was limited to the library books. Picking six books only to find them referencing themselves was annoying. Six books with 130% total page content between them.

I did learn how to read, skim, absorb content. I also discovered most people simply repeat information instead of using or validating.
When MS Encarta came out in 1993 our household got it, too. I did the same thing on our 486 beige box: just hit the arrow button on articles, reading through as many as I could.

With my Reddit habit probably soon coming to an end, it might be a good time to readjust my attention span, haha.
> So enforce them, it's one five minute zero-interaction phone call to have a cop deal with a noise complaint. I can, and do, throw loud parties at my apartment, stumble through my hallways drunk, and host rowdy out of town friends and no one dares question my ability to live there.

"Just enforce them" is a non-solution, I mentioned that my anecdote included calling cops and bringing it up with AirBnB and housing association, the apartments are still listed, as they've been for 3 years. You can't just say "enforce them" and expect that magically it will happen, even less in a city where tourism has become a major economical backbone. The world is not that simple, these negative externalities can't be shoved under a rug when they start affecting a whole city's living population like is the case in Lisbon...

> Trying to enforce social norms by not allowing "certain kinds of people" to sleep there is grade-a bullshit. Trying to get outcome A by making a rule about B is unfair to everyone who is B but not A and A but not B. This kind of reasoning is why it's so hard to get multi-family housing approved. A nice suburb in my city forced the development of new desperately needed apartment complexes to be on the the border because "less desirable" people live in apartments.

Please, don't soapbox, the issue with AirBnBs in overcrowded touristic places is very, very different than whatever bullshit zoning laws happen in the USA, don't conflate those issues as they are not the same.
I disagree that this is vitriol, and would rather argue it’s natural to have dark thoughts that one does not actually act on. We’re all just a bunch of animals that developed strong moral codes and varying abilities to process complex thoughts.

Whenever I used medical services in the past and filled a form with a question if my data "could be used for research in anonymous form" I answered: Yeah, sure!

Thanks to the likes of Facebook, Google and their ilk starting to stick their filthy paws into the most private medical data some years ago my answer now is always a resounding HELL, NO!

I always feel bad about it, because it really shouldn't be that way, but thanks to the slimy shenanigans of the tech brothership I just don't see a viable alternative to that answer.

What bugs me is my urge to explain to the poor admin to who I'm handing the form the why this is out of the question.
Using medical records without direct informed consent is unethical, so the there's not nearly the distinction you're trying to make there.
Whoa, that's really affordable! Thanks for the tip.

Almost all real-world projects that are language-like or compiler-like will need a parser. A much smaller fraction of them will need register allocation, instruction selection, optimization, code generation, etc.

For every big, deep, native code compiler, there are a hundred template languages, config files, report generators, etc. all of which are real programs providing real value for actual people.

Emphasizing parsing provides the most value for the greatest number of people. The folks that do end up needing more back end depth will still have the resources available to learn it.

Probably because the reality of remote working was set by the pandemic, which forced a huge number of people to switch to remote work. Remote workers with a proper home office suddenly were, and I think continue to be, a minority.

I mean, the engineers who built the feature were promoted and moved on, so you can't really expect it to keep working if the world changes and the model isn't updating.
its a tired cliche but Disney really did run right into "get woke, go broke"

I've seen interviews with the directory of She-Hulk where she seems to revel in the fact that the "fandom" was crapping all over her show...

"this will piss off all the right people!" is not a business strategy

they really did kill Star Wars

Marvel too

its probably too late to save either, as Disney thinks more bad, woke content is the answer to too much bad, woke content

Have the on prem team start deploying some assets that can utilized by the cloud team via a familiar interface like terraform. (metal as a service, kubevirt, Vsphere, nebula, whatever)

Start small, pick one service at a time (compute this quarter, postgres next quarter, secrets management the next) and use the emerging platform to strangle out paid services

Cloud team gets to stay cloudy, on prem team still gets to farm servers
I would love if we all agreed to value the joy of building on here. Not saying it needs to be nauseating positive, but just a default expectation of comments like “wow! This is cool, here are some things I might have done differently”

Isn't that just how type aliases work rather than anything to do with structural typing? That example also compiles in Haskell and Go and Kotlin.

Here's how type aliases are usually documented: "Type aliases do not introduce new types. They are equivalent to the corresponding underlying types."

The person above did have a better example of the downside: You usually want something to nominally comply with a specific interface, not structurally. i.e. Just because something happens to have an `encrypt(u8[]): u8[]` method doesn't mean you want to accept it as an argument. (Go interfaces have a similar issue.)
> Indeed will probably have that feature ready to go the day after it becomes legal/available.

Conversely, it would be easy to make that kind of thing illegal, while concomitantly more open records access would reduce healthcare costs.
I actually like that. It's quite often that I stumble upon an older Reddit thread when searching something specific and the (presumably) valuable comments are just [deleted]. True, people might want to erase some things they said, but it makes Reddit a lot less valuable as a search resource.

Thanks for the reply/clarification.

This kind of direct response from an owner is also somewhat of a selling point that makes me more interested Framework laptops. :)

> on the fly like swapping Expansion Cards or Input Modules

I knew that Framework was doing input modules, but I didn't realize that stuff like input modules would be hot-swappable. That's pretty cool to see in action.

I'm sure it's not something that there are any current plans to do, and I'm sure it's not possible to talk about even if there were plans, but just as a side-note: seeing the keyboard on the fly get replaced like that -- if there was a way to get a digitizer/screen with good stylus support to be thin enough be used as a keyboard replacement, I could easily see that module turning the 16 inch Framework into not just a laptop but also a replacement for my travel drawing tablet (especially knowing that I can stick a GPU on the back).
It's super frustrating that if I want a 2nd charger for my macbook pro, I have to either buy an overpriced apple adapter, or.... what? I haven't seen any USB-C compatible 140W chargers that are significantly cheaper than apple's.... but I can't charge my laptop with less. If I plug in my 80w charger, my laptop just goes "bong bong bong" as it turns charging on and off endlessly.
This type of behaviour should encourage all users to have a third party app store ecosystem similar to how we have with browsers.

Google and Co can't be trusted, just because it's their operating system is a awful argument.
Yes, I'd call all of those (at the very least) accomplices when in a military context.

I dislike snaps because they introduce inefficiencies and I don't want want applications to each bundle their own copies of the shared libraries they depend on. I also don't want automatic sandboxing.
This feels more financial than political. As in, it really has nothing to do with the migrants, it’s just a way to funnel money into pockets of donors.

My gray list behaves like this. It's seldom a problem in practice, but new senders may need a "warm-up".
Exactly. They should be nationalized. If they are the only producer of a number of strategically important materials, nationalization needs to happen.

The private markets are great, but cannot be trusted to clean up after their own mess - they have proven this time and time and time again. The taxpayers will ultimately be on the hook for this payout, and that's simply unacceptable.

If the public has to bail out this company, at the very least, the board and C-Suite need to be liquidated and be fined substantially for this sort of behavior. They've known about the danger of these chemicals for almost 60 years, and not once did they (AFAIK) go to the government and actively ask for help to replace said chemicals with safer alternatives that don't literally last forever if consumed.
Yeah! I've got a few of those as well.

Does this include any contextual data surrounding your posts, like what you replied to, etc? That seems to me to be as important as what someone has written.
Why is there a 1K comment limit and can you add a way to override that? Just hitting the reddit API looks like it will fetch further back.

I looked at my 1000th comment in the archive and it's only back to Sat May 28 2022 (I guess I comment a lot), if I want to save 10+ years I'll need a higher limit.

Edit: Looks like this might a reddit limit? I'm seeing other tools mention 1K. I guess I'll use Reddit's data export tool instead.
Does HN have any guidance on when and why to downvote ? Or just personally ?
Ah apologies, the other commenter looks to be correct that it needs 3.11. The typing imports honestly aren't important, so I might be able to pull them out of the runtime.

What I've been dreaming of is a "podcast" generated for a day of HN, but focusing on the comments and conversations.

I come here for the convos. But I also commute in a car, and I exercise with headphones.

I want like a radio show made of segments. Each segment is a post with the best conversations between users. Use a generative Ai voice service (like Coqui), and have it speak the comments aloud.

Then I can listen to interesting chatter through my headphones.
How do you know which conflict you're going to fight next?

Each of these commanders may be better suited to a different conflict. The commander who is competent in one conflict may be a buffoon in a different conflict.

Even winning battles doesn't necessarily set up a commander for success. If your enemy changes between conflicts (say, going from a near-peer adversary to an insurgent adversary, a-la-Gulf War 1 -> Gulf War 2, or insurgency to near-peer, a-la Russia-in-Chechnya to Russia-in-Ukraine), radically different strategy, operations, and tactics are required.

I think this goes a long way to explaining the old saying "everyone prepares to win the last war." It boils down to "this guy did good last time, he'll do good this time too" when what helped him the last time is a very specific way of thinking that is not applicable now.

My college roommate worked on that over the summer, the first version! Design rule checking, some layout tools, not a lot at first. He was very proud.
It looks like Shreddit relies on the Reddit API to work. Is this tool going to break with the API changes? Or is personal API usage unaffected?

Kera Desktop: open-source, cross-platform, web-based desktop environment
> How does someone weaponize your information?

I guess you're not an alcoholic? That's information that potential employers would be glad to pay for. In the days of paper records, doctors would write "C2H4OH" on your record, as a semi-coded message to other doctors.

Estimates vary, but I understand that close to 25% of the UK population is alcohol-dependent to some degree. Deterring people from seeking treatment seems "unhelpful" from the POV of general social benefit.

Why wouldn't it just describe the competition of sentiment if there was one?

Edit:

> Zetice starts off by suggesting the value of being able to summarize comments, positing it as a significant improvement to an unspecified system or feature. They further posit that such a summary could encapsulate the variety and contention of sentiments found within a thread.

> In response, hackernewds expresses skepticism about the feasibility of such a task. They argue that the diversity and conflict of opinions often found in comments would make it difficult to produce an effective summary.

> Zetice counters this viewpoint by asking why a summary couldn't reflect the existence of this diversity or conflict of sentiment if that is a prevailing characteristic of the comments in question.

Seems fine to me, in principle. Would be nice to abbreviate further but that's just prompt engineering.
>These changes mark the beginning of the (apparently) inevitable enshittification of Reddit as a platform

This started long ago, when the new UI was announced. This was the first obvious "we're going to make it worse for everybody because that's how we operate and there's nothing you can do about it" step for me.
It says "wait up to 30 days", which feels excessive.
The metric for success for a for profit company is profit anyone can sell dollar bills for 95 cents. OpenAI is particularly a bad example since they have negative marginal costs. Which means the bigger they get, the more money they lose.

>you have to be able to see that "economic warfare" is preferable to "warfare warfare", right?

Economic warfare can resemble the sieges of traditional warfare. Yemen was blockaded "economically" to prevent food and medical aid from entering the country. Syrians were only getting an hour of electricity per day in recent memory because of economic strictures preventing them from importing oil. It can get pretty brutal.
That still doesn't change the underlying mechanics of the analogy though. It doesn't matter how many employers there are, if the worst case scenario is that you end up where you are now (jobless / no app)

The analogy would be more accurate if you could end up in a worse off position by taking the job / making the app, say through lost development time with no payoff
Depending on the kind of work you do, this may not be a problem.

For my day job, I use STM32/C++ because it's what the company has standardized on. For my side gig/consulting work, I've pretty much standardized on ESP32 because it's cheap, has lots of resources and good community, and I can leverage the Arduino ecosystem. It's grossly overkill for a lot of projects but no-one cares. Clients just care that you can ship fast.

My next step is moving the side gig work to MicroPython or some other higher-level language that lets me code much faster than C/C++.
I can send you an invite if you put a means of communication on your profile for me to reach out to.
I wonder if there's some new opportunities for these game engines with generative AI.

One possibility is treating the game like scaffolding. It feels like textures and images could all be replaced fairly easily with generative versions. Toss them in Midjourney with /describe, play around to create replacements. Or Stable Diffusion or whatever. (Not sure how many things are "images" and how many are other structures like shaders.)

Maps are harder, at least I imagine harder to deconstruct into atomic pieces that can be replaced. Though it's interesting to think about whether an LLM could decompose them into more semantic pieces, if it could understand the underlying structure that may only have existed in the mind of the original map creator.

I imagine things like quests, stats, etc., would all be amenable to generation.

Maybe the big question is if things really are separable enough to use the old game as scaffolding: can you replace 10% of the game, or 50%, or 90% and have a meaningfully playable game?
