For how much I see people here saying AI moderation can solve this, I frankly think AI tools are likely to be an order of magnitude better at playing offense than defense - producing huge volumes of AI-generated spam/marketing/offensive content that could fool an AI content moderation algorithm on the other side.

Being blunt is different from being truthful. We Eastern Europeans are so truthful that we end up not saying anything at all for fear of being too blunt. So what you get is all these 1:1’s where everyone has to make sure that everyone else is on exactly the same page before being open about it in a larger meeting. No space for disagreement or discussion in a larger forum!

I can’t speak about other Europeans or their culture, but here in Eastern Europe we historically had very little education in presentation, debate skills and critical thinking. So people have strong opinions, but little skill in presenting or confronting them with other perspectives and ideas. Of course, it never is all black and white. But this is my own experience with tech millennials at least.

Americans (at their best) are in some ways the opposite - they’re good at diplomatically navigating a variety of imperfect voices to arrive at a mutual agreed upon point of view. Coming with that (idealized) American mindset into Eastern Europe isn’t easy.

That sounds like the "elite overproduction" which is commonly held to be one of the two factors increasing likelihood of a revolution (the other being popular immiseration).

I happen to be a traffic engineer who operates signals in the USA. We may not have the most advanced technology but I can assure that we don't not write code to operate our signals. We do enter different parameters that govern the amount of time that you have to wait.

In most situations it comes down to if you want to favor vehicles or if you want to favor pedestrians. As everyone has mentioned it is difficult to accommodate both as they would like.

Also as government worker I can assure we are not highly paid. We make a decent living but there is actually a shortage of people right now that want to do the work.
Android did blow past them easily. If you live in any country of the world that isn't the United States, the overwhelming majority of your population likely uses an Android device. It's been like that for close to a decade at this point.

I'm not refuting that Apple can't do this - that's for regulators and legislators to decide, not you or me. I'm more highlighting that they've made things very hard on people for much longer than they've been shitting on a benign crypto app. One might even say that they're known for abusing their market position, at this point.
>What is it with these coastal cities I truly wonder. Just better weather to be homeless?

The city of San Francisco spends $70,000 annually per homeless person![0] The homeless there are homeless because severe mental and addiction issues cause them to reject help, not because resources aren't available.

And no, weather is not the most important reason for why so many homeless come here. If it were, San Diego would have a worse homeless problem than San Francisco.

The most important difference is that the city of San Diego spends one third as much as San Francisco per homeless person. ($46.8 million in city spending[1] for an estimated 1900 homeless.[2])

San Francisco has an enormous homeless-industrial complex that uses every virtue-signaling, heart-tugging propaganda tool at its disposal to increase the flow of money thrown into its bottomless maw, despite no metric ever improving one bit whatsoever.

[2] <https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2023-02-07/downtown...> [3]

[3] The count is only of the homeless in downtown San Diego. While presumably most homeless San Diegans are there, just as there are very few San Franciscans living on the sidewalk in Pac Heights, the point is that a larger number would mean that much less spending per homeless person in the city as a whole, and that much more glaring a discrepancy between the two cities.
AMD should have re-used the Xbox APU, but other than that it makes no economic sense?

The tape out cost would be huge, the die would be huge. Either the mobo/socket would be super expensive and niche, or consumers would be pissed about non expandable RAM.

Laptop OEMs didn't even want the Steam Deck chip or Broadwell-edram back then, much less a big expensive APU.

> Would a three hour film like Doctor Zhivago ever sell 248 million tickets today?

Avatar, Way Of The Water, a 3 hour movie, broke all sorts of sales records (though # of tickets sold data apparently isn't out yet).

Heck Avengers End Game was 3 hours long and it sold 351 million tickets.

I do think you get less of the repeat sales now days vs even in the 90s, just because there are so many more movies coming out, both in Cinema and on streaming platforms, but that doesn't say anything about people's willingness to attend long movies.

> I want to also store/attach intermediates (say a named numpy array) into the notebook for further analysis.

Is the issue that you do not want to save the data and report into a folder and distribute that? That is, you want an entirely self-contained notebook? Or is there something else going on here?

I'm sure that's possible but it seems kind of wrong to put your binary "data" in with your analysis and presentation-making code.

I don't really care if it's embarrassing or not. As long as my actions are entirely legal, anything pretty much goes. Encouraging people to install regulatory approved powerline networking adapters is completely legal. As it's likely I'm not the only one outraged about this here, the idea to do that might spread. If that happens it won't be secret anymore.

And we have the right to freedom of speech, to get emotional, angry, and even irrational when we see outrageous punishments being dished out by the government, for people being persistently rude on the radio. Especially so when we hear of other people supporting such draconian punishment.

And even more so when large parts of the amateur radio community agree with these punishments and also behave like they are the radio police and have the right to threaten those who might break the rules. When I see other people threatened in that manner it really strikes a nerve with me, and I vent publicly on the forums in response, as I'm doing here.

And if I want to think it's like a sit in protest then it's my right to do so. Under human rights, freedom of conscience and freedom of thought. I might be wrong about thinking that way, but I have the right to be wrong, to be incorrect. As long as I don't break the law.

It's like sit in protesting climate change, or a particularly bad corporation who pollutes the environment, the blockades are going to cause a nuisance for other people not involved in it, but again these protests are legal. This is how change happens.

Many of these amateur radio stations might pose a health and safety hazard to nearby homes. Having thousand watt power levels in residential neighborhoods, while legal, might not be safe for people, especially children. And the amateur community in general turns a blind eye to that. So yet another reason for protesting. Actually, in that case I feel lobbying to get that prohibited might have a better chance of success.

And if it does become prohibited, we don't need to fine offenders $24,000, the FCC can get a warrant, and come in and seize their equipment instead, if they don't stop when requested.
No, it doesn't. That's exactly the problem. It seems the more "quality", whatever that means, the less people reproduce, thus society falls apart.
Interestingly, if you ask them if they fully trust the government, they'll likely say no. It's a strange paradox.
Not really betting everything, though, is he? $10b to OpenAI from a company with $168b in revenue in 2021. Sure it's a lot of money; they can also easily afford it, and if OpenAI turns out to be a losing bet then I'm pretty sure MS will carry on just fine with all their Office revenues etc...
I respect your individual right to this attitude, but consider that the wonders you enjoy today are sustained by a population of a particular size. As populations contract, the number of places that support the activities and adventures you want to have will necessarily contract as well. Imagine a campfire, throughout the night you'll have to move the dwindling coals closer together if you can't add more wood.

So, on an individual basis, this "alone and my way" approach is valid, but if adopted at scale it begins to look parasitic.
Smaller companies can be happy with Ruby as it is while enjoying the incremental improvements. They're hardly going to invest in hiring C-proficient engineers to bolster the language - it's simply good enough to start a business from and the performance metric is low priority.

They're in a different class to heavy hitters like Shopify and Github, who will gain a lot more from investing in gradual improvements to Ruby's runtime at the scale they operate at.

I'll contrast it with JavaScript, which has tried to assimilate every language pattern under the sun over the past decade and is intensely difficult to maintain a stable stack with, even if it's better now than it used to be.
I think it's important that people around the world can see this, know that we suffer, and feel proud of their own countries' health systems.

Climate change has nothing to do with the Unabomber. In theory a return to the stone age would reduce emissions, but that's not likely to happen, and isn't what those types care about. They would gladly do things that actually create more emissions in the name of more independent life, and they openly say it's not really about saving endangered species or making future kids lungs healthier, it's more about abstract ideas and values. They'd rather work 18 hours a day to survive than work 8 hours making someone else rich.

In practice, it seems like what happens is they push for older tech and we wind up with wood stoves and waste oil instead of heat pumps and solar. If they actually had their way, it would incidentally save the planet, at the cost of, you know, probably a whole lot of people dying.

It scares me, sometimes I wonder if mainstream tech will just stall out, and smartphones will be a thing only a small number own, like BlackBerrys, thermostats won't be smart, and we'll all have to actually own filing cabinets again and use reams of paper a year for random everyday stuff, and all the big problems we try to solve with tech will just be ignored and accepted.

Or, worse and still plausible, I could imagine it being no longer safe to even be known as having anything to do with tech, and power plants being bombed weekly, while the national guard and police do nothing because nobody really cares and everyone kinda wants the collapse to happen.

This explains quite a lot about why health care has been noticeably getting worse over the last several years -- for everybody.

In my part of the US, you can't even find a doctor that is taking new patients at all, private practice or otherwise. Talking with some doctors, it's clear that being a doctor these days is a very undesirable job. I know I wouldn't want to do it.

I have never used a third party app. I've used compact mode (i), old, new and their first-party app on Android. The information density on their first-party app is so low as to be painful. Then there are ads that feel like a run-by assault. Somehow they're now competing with _LinkedIn_ for how painful they can make being curious and attempting to connect with others.

If the first-part app is all there is, it's easier just to go somewhere else.
> automotive, bicycle

They're supposed to have recurring maintenance fees. One might do the maintenance themselve, but a significant part of the user base will ask a shop to do it, probably the dealer where they bought it.

> furniture, kitchen appliances, other home appliances

On the higher end it survives by charging years worth of purchase. Like a 4000 bucks oak dining table. Kitchen appliance also either cost an arm and a leg or won't last for 10 years (including buying replacement for the perishable parts)

The lower end is the market IKEA dominates.

> television

They exactly saw this problem front and center and started pivoting to selling viewing data and pushing ads, getting "smart"

> computers

That's exactly why companies (the biggest cmputer purchasers) are led to leases instead of purchases, and those renew every 3 years. On the user side cheaper computers are also the mainstream, and people don't expect those to last 10 years.
Hey now, I used to develop for Apple products. Life is short though, and catering to Apple's every whim is like living with a fat and lazy king who demands tribute for doing nothing. When MacOS and iOS had the confidence to show me ads, I left.

Their comment honestly resonates with me - I also paid extra for Apple products because I thought I'd get a better experience. As time goes on, that experience has not lived up to the standard it should have. Apple's insistence on cagey behavior has turned me off their ecosystem entirely for personal usage.

Images and table cells are just nodes within the tree holding the text, assuming all styling etc is represented in a plain text syntax similar to Markdown, of course. Looking up the nodes from char indices is quick if each node stores how many chars it contains.

Other approaches would probably require the selection to be a tree of its own, I can't really say whether that's simpler overall or not.
Ask HN: VisionOS App Ideas?
VisionOS might be launching the next computing era, like the iPhone did in 2007. Aside from the ones shown in WWDC23, what other potentially groundbreaking apps could fuel this revolution?

Agreed - There's a certain thing about greenfield development in particular(which is quite fully the realm of startup coding) where you have to approach the first, second, maybe third iteration as one that will be thrown away, so when it does get thrown away, you make it easy to do so. And that leads towards some pretty dumb code, often "copy-paste-modify, sort it out later" code.

A lot of "best practice" ideas that get made into blogposts impose a structure that hinders disposability in favor of a certain aesthetic goal: to do the thing with less repetition and slightly cleaner abstractions. The goal is often not unreasonable, but it conflicts with the action of rapid iteration.

So I tend to write now with an eye towards trying to keep the code disposable until I face a certain class of error to eliminate, that needs the more abstract method. Often part of the disposability is in not actually solving the entire problem, but cheating and returning a wrong answer, e.g:

Instead of fancyAlgorithm() being written in a way that creates any dependencies I write a skeleton "function fancyAlgorithm() {return true;}" and then later upgrade it to a lookup table, and then to the algorithm. Because most of the code that matters to the app won't be in the algorithm, but in how all the other data is being passed around. The sooner I can get that piece to return a wrong answer with known error, the sooner I can arrive at a complete but wrong app, which can be corrected into a higher quality one. When not all the pieces of the app are there, it's not clear what error you need to be solving for, which leads to squeezing effort onto code that isn't important.
Looking at the grimacesbirthday.com, I'm trying to figure out someone extracted a GameBoy ROM from that page.

It looks like everything is implemented inside a WASM blob, containing what looks like binjgb (based on the strings).

I'm assuming the game itself is also included in the data section at the end of the WASM blob. Are there any good tools for reverse engineering that? (Or am I missing a more obvious way of extracting the ROM?)
I was widowed after 15 years and I have been using dating apps for the last few years and in my experience you are absolutely correct on pretty much everything.

I know who I am and what I like. I advertise that on my profile and I take folks on dates that I like to do by myself. I’ve had a lot of success with relationships of all different lengths and levels of casual-ness.

If you are a dude in the dating pool and you are positioning yourself as what you think women want, you’re doing yourself a disservice.
I don't think he says predictable or low effort. Obviously you can't build and release a bridge in a week, nor a big software system. But you can still push yourself to move fast (a relative term), and these projects do in fact get broken down into steps, even if you can't predict all the steps from here to there, and even if you can't release something along the way.

Maybe it's not the case of your co-workers, but it's an example.

And I've seem groups where 'not-conforming to the norm' was seem as being superior, so people would say they don't care about social status, but as a way to feel superior and connect to those people that also say they don't care about social status. Positioning themselves as not being a 'normie'

It might be that they truly don't care, but on the other hand, for someone that don't care, they put too much importance on not-caring which is... odd.
I'm definitely guilty of not finishing projects, but I don't know that the "Just do the thing and don't NOT do the thing" is a particularly useful piece of advice. I know I should "fight for the time on the project" but willpower to do so isn't always something that's available.

And that's not a personal failing -- I might decide that tonight I want to work on my game, but then have a long day at work that leaves me emotionally and physically exhausted. It's important not to burn out on your projects too, and forcing labor on them when you do not have the spare capacity can lead to long term failure to complete the projects as well.

I think the much more valuable lens is to consider -- "Why do I work on this project? Is the joy of finishing it important to me?" If you want to finish it, and cannot, then start looking into pushing yourself to finish. If the joy is in just tinkering because tinkering is fun, then allow yourself that pleasure and don't beat yourself up for finding something you enjoy and partaking in it.
