> But differently, in the US, reusability is a thing despite the 'old guard' (NASA hasn't pushed the development of reusable vehicles itself, it has merely accepted them when private individuals got frustrated enough to do it themselves), while in Europe, it's promising that the ESA itself is invested in reusable rocketry.

That is totally wrong. What NASA did do is create a platform for private competition with the hope that some kind of innovation would come out of it his. The policy foundation for this was set up in the 90s and this allowed companies like SpaceX to come up and have the chance to innovate without direct government control.

This innovation was then quickly adopted by NASA and DoD who saw that it was useful. NASA and DoD have a much stronger adoption of reusability then anything we see from ESA.

Yes, SLS is not reusable unfortunately, but NASA by now can't really change that from happening anyway.

NASA itself doesn't have to be involved in re-usability development because its already solved for them.

> while in Europe, it's promising that the ESA itself is invested in reusable rocketry.

So they are invested in re-usability and yet the first real rocket planned with it might happen in the late 2030s?

The reality is that ESA was actively hostile to re-usability literally up to the point of self delusion and then begrudgingly started to do some minor investments in it.

> What I'm saying is that ULA, for its so-called next-gen rocket, plans something as 'dumb' as 'SMART' reuse for those engines, which is a waste given their capabilities.

ULA is a political creation and its lobbying power depends on using parts from different large companies and that includes solids. Solids make full stack re-usability hard.

Now while 'SMART' re-usability might be 'dumb' is a whole heck of a lot better then no re-usability of Ariane 6.

> NASA and the contractors it has been mostly associated with

SpaceX is NASA largest contractor outside of SLS/Orion program, and those were adopted before SpaceX was relevant. In recent years SpaceX has won the waste majority of contracts. Blue has one some, and the are in on re-usability. The contractors you mention that are not focused on re-usability have consistently not been winning many contracts.

> To explain why this bothers me, as part of Artemis, NASA has repeatedly used the phrase "sustainable presence", yet the way they behave as an organization does not correspond with wanting to be sustainable. To me it's seeming increasingly more likely that Artemis too will fade out after a few landings.

I agree that the SLS/Orion program is not 'substainable' or embraces re-usability. But those programs are 15-25 years old and once they started its politics that substain them.

If NASA could go back and redo those things today, it would look very different. Politics has force NASA into situation where SLS/Orion is politically unkillable and NASA is doing its best to use the rest of their budget to actually make progress.

Using the moon lander funding and giving it to Starship is a fantastic move to break SLS only (if fake) claim to relevance.
Happened to me too once, and I agree: it's just insulting and disrespectful. It was also an ssignment with a hard time limit in my case, something that I will likely never again agree to (unless I get offered insane amounts of money or it is somehow my dream job but...).
Yeah it's a pretty cool design. Discord's real time system operates on a similar (although much more complicated system) on top of hash rings as well.

You're right, and it's not even hard to verify it, just look at this comment from December 2020:

In the US, it's because this claim, or rejection of it, is strongly tied to political identity. Because the US is highly polarized right now, once political identity comes into play, you've left the realm of rationality and entered the realm of tribalism.

I'd say it's not so big these days after SSD became the norm, but a lot of apps there for awhile would set a start up program in the system tray. That would preload most of the dlls in memory so when you ran the executable it loaded much faster.

Adobe, for example, has a ton of common libraries that load at startup.

Because flagging is effectively a super-down-vote available to low karma posters and HN does not seem to have any meaningful response to topics being silenced via flagging for political reasons. I suppose from the YC/dang perspective anything contentious enough to draw orchestrated flagging is contentious enough to draw trolls, shills, etc so perhaps it is viewed as a non-issue that these topics get silenced.

This is exactly how I remember things.

My stance has always been that Lab Leak required the least number of assumptions. Intent was never factored in, just that it seems awfully strange to so vehemently deny even the possibility of it being a lab leak and not want to investigate. Could it have been the wet market? Sure, but it seems less likely.

There may be some interesting reckoning happening in a few years, but probably not. Like safe and effective vaccines. It turns out, that if you did a RCT with two placebos and only called the people with placebo A vaccinated after two weeks, and called them unvaccinated if the got COVID in those two weeks. Placebo A would have the same efficacy numbers as the vaccines they rolled out.

I also thought RFK Jr was full of shit when he said the current childhood vaccines have not been tested against placebo. I was wrong there. Turns out they only test against previous versions of the vaccines, some of which are known to have serious side effects, and most of the time the previous version goes back to a time when they didn't do much testing either.
> Wonder how scalable the code base really is.

I fully agreed with the GP for the same reasons: in my book everything except the Civic was OK, because that matches the intent of the sign.

In both law and real life, there is a common understanding (to use your term) that rules may be violated for the greater good. Does driving an ambulance into the park violate the letter of the rule? Yes, but it's still OK because we give emergency vehicles wide leeway to break rules so they can save lives. Judaism even encodes this in a general principle:

A lot of alternative visual designs run into problems with the technical realities of modern UI tooling. I'm going to talk about web tech, but Android layout works largely the same, last I checked (one trillion years ago, to be fair).

The futuristic UI look that Arwes is doing comes with a whole lot of animation, which is very cumbersome on the web. The CSS transition property is good, but it works on a very narrow range of properties, and anything involving inserting/deleting/adding elements needs a whole song and dance to trigger the animation then go clean it up when it's done. You can do it, but it's a whole lot of extra work.

Most other stylized looks involve big chonky stylized borders and background graphics. But we generally want the same style to work on mobile, and the chonkier your borders, the harder it is to cram it into reduced space. (Also CSS still doesn't have native 9-patches for some absurd reason. It used to be how everything was done, until the world agreed to stop abusing tables.)

Meanwhile the modern flat look is easy to implement in CSS and doesn't have any trouble scaling down to mobile. And it's still a good enough look, it'd even be kind of striking if it wasn't ubiquitous.
I'm trying to imagine why wear leveling would depend on the chips. The number of writes you can get out of them would, but the optimal wear leveling algorithm should be to spread the writes around as much as possible regardless of that, shouldn't it?

Likewise, some chips could require more error correction because they expect more errors. But the amount of error correction is a tunable in the algorithm; it's a space vs. resilience trade off. Where to set the dial shouldn't be hard to derive from the manufacturer's specifications, or empirical testing if the spec is worthless.
Libraries are a solution to this problem.

> No; this is a common misconception I see from people who swallowed the "it's allowed to format your hard drive and blow up your monitor" dodge vs. the electrical engineers who know where terminology like 'undefined behavior' originated in engineering.

You are arguing against topics I never brought up. (I am an EE fwiw).
I have no misconceptions where undefined behavior comes from and have demonstrated none thus far.

> This is why I actually hate using this programming language, because when you hit undefined behavior (which the language makes trivial to do)

Ok so you want to editorialize on something else entirely.

No idea how that dismisses anything I said or referred to.

Regardless of how trivial it is in practice to invoke undefined behavior it doesn’t change the real differences between undefined and implementation defined behavior.

>a genuinely scary and unsettling experience for me

Every time I think of a good thing to ask ChatGPT (free version), it gives me garbage. Not only for programming tasks, but also for, basically, short essays in English on some topic. By garbage, I mean superficially polished but fundamentally incoherent when you pay attention to the details. It simply doesn't grasp the topic, because, I think, there is no mechanism for that. I don't see a whit of difference between code and plain English - they both require something it doesn't have available.

Hypothesis #1 is that I'm just shitty at prompting it.

Hypothesis #2, that I like better for reasons of vanity, is that I think of new ideas or questions constantly and most people do not. If you ask anything that exists on the internet then you will be tricked.

>when ChatGPT does it I just don't understand how it's even possible for it to make a mistake like that while it clearly is quite on-top of the rest of the problem-space

It literally only makes plausible things, true or false. It generates falsehoods that are adjacent to truths or at least to human-produced utterances, in an abstract space. That space naturally has a huge number of falsehoods swirling around every fact it digested. How is that not intuitive, and intuitively so dangerous as to be practically useless? It is inherently the best bullshit, the most superhumanly crafted bullshit, by the much quoted definition of bullshit I first read on HN.

But I do keep trying it again and again, at intervals, to see what it has to say.

There's a whole ecommerce subculture that profits on the price difference between ecommerce giants. Usually the items get posted on ebay but I guess it does not matter where it gets posted as long as someone can make a profit.

I've ordered from walmart 3rd party sellers and gotten the item from HomeDepot. I've ordered on ebay and have gotten stuff from Amazon and Walmart. It's a bit frustrating since I could have saved the middle man and gotten it for less. But ultimately, the mistake is on me for not double checking the price with other vendors.

I asked a friend about why their company could not keep their devices up to date for more than two or three years.

Basically, they did not have long-term maintenance agreements in place for the underlying subcomponents. The subcomponents were filled with vendor coded firmware blobs. There was some desire to fix this going forward for marketing purposes, but little desire to go back in time to fix old devices that were short on support.

Same happened with me. Funny enough the other candidates solutions were shared on GitHub. Two funny aspects:

1. Other candidates were clearly spending 8-9 hours on the problem. I saw their commit logs. A commit every 1-2 hours for 9 hours. Several candidates public repos were like this. The assignment was like 2 pages of requirements supposed to be done in I believe 1 hour.

2. They told me (thru the recruiting firm; I never spoke with them) that it would have been resourceful to use the other candidates solutions.

Your "direct quote" doesn't exist. So you may want to get your facts in order, especially if you're going to argue that it portrays something it clearly does not.

In fact, it's the opposite of what you were asserting.

Early on, virologists Michael Farzan and Robert Garry were on a call with Fauci and Collins about the potential that the virus could've leaked.

Following that, Fauci's released emails (another correction, since you called them "leaked") was part of a chain between him and Collins:

> Wondering if there is something NIH can do to help put down this very destructive conspiracy.

- Collins, April 16, 2020.

> I would not do anything about this right now. It is a shiny object that will go away in times.

- Fauci's response

What's more, Robert Garry clarified it further:

> One thing that could be misconstrued is that neither Dr Fauci or Dr Collins suggested in any way that we not write the Proximal Origin paper. Likewise, neither one suggested that we not mention the possibility of a Lab origin.

I hope that helps you put things in proper order.

Every undefined behavior is de facto implementation-defined because something happens resulting from the state of the machine and the code being executed. Change the implementation and the thing that happens changes.

Normally I'd agree, but I got passed up by a large number of fairly reasonable-seeming companies for arbitrary reasons like this. If it's just one or two, sure, maybe I'm better off.

It's just how language works. Language is inherently ambiguous in the strictest sense. It's why at times you need to use more and more words to convey a clear message to someone, but in some sense, it's a never ending rabbit hole.

Despite the instructions explicitly saying not to I suspect many people (like me) could not help but “look through” the stated rule to infer its intent, especially for the more unusual examples.

It’s hard to turn off the part of your brain that applies past experiences to every new situation.

> The goal is not to have the cheapest or most efficient rocket.

Well I point out in other places. That's exactly what they said they wanted when they started building it.

Only now where they know they are way off they say 'oh that's never what we actually wanted'.

Europe was successful in getting commercial payloads on their rockets and that helped them finance everything. So a primary goal and justification for Ariane 6 in favor of Ariane ME was exactly this commercial market.

> If the EU wanted cheap, they'd just eat the shit sandwich of using Russian launch vehicles.

That literally exactly what they did. Arianespace launched more Soyuz then anything else.

But that simply wasn't tenable anymore.

So the reality is ESA was eating shit sandwiches until Russia tried to eat Ukraine and got diary. Now they can't handle it anymore.
