Yet you said:

>China/Russia/whoever can send whatever they want into US airspace and there's nothing that anyone, including the military, can do about it.

So it's not "whatever they want", it's cheap drones and balloons. You make China out to be some scary powerful Boogeyman (which requires the USG to invent alien stories as a cover) and then admit they don't have such capability.

I personally am not scared one iota about Chinese aircraft threatening US airspace. And I am very confident that if such a scenario did arise, the US military would address it in the most appropriate and effective way. Which could range anywhere from ignoring it, to neutralizing with extreme prejudice.
Yes, but that's an unacceptably low standard. Canadians (myself among them) spend way too much time looking to the US to feel better about themselves and way too little time looking to the world to see how they could improve. It's virtually impossible for me to see a doctor where I live (capital and second largest city of Canada's third largest province) outside of going to the ER. It's nice that ER trip won't bankrupt me, but that's not good enough.
it s still a counterfactual question
> We've analyzed the text that accompanies more than 800,000 vaporwave tracks, from 2010 to present day

Impossible. Hit Vibes killed vaporwave in 2013.

Edit: Nevertheless, critical support for even acknowledging the genre's political origins.
I don't expect a lot of people to take this up. Express Entry was already an option for these folks and you get permanent residency from the start under that program.
“Those Disturbers of My Rest”: The First Treatise on Bedbugs (1730)
It doesn't matter if goods are cheaper if other parts of the human experience are degraded.

It's not as simple as companies lowering costs, migration also creates conditions that concentrate wealth and creates unpleasant rapid growth.

From what I have personally seen, there is a general feeling that the social costs of migration are not worth it.

Sure, you can afford highly complex consumer goods, but you have are now just another cog in the globaly homogeneous exploitation machine.

In the US of A, corporations are people and then some.
You may know this, but if not, fantasies like this in the digital world date back to Vannevar Bush and Ted Nelson (who is still alive!). The unfortunate reality is that they are based on a different networking physics, whose primary purpose is to enforce Intellectual Property. Such a physics in practice is unusable. "Worse is better" dominates both in media as well as in engineering.
And also, returning errors by value does not introduce hidden control flow!
In python, you have no way of knowing what(if any) exceptions that a function may throw, so unless you catch everything you have no way of knowing where execution will end up after calling a function.

Not to mention the intentionally(!) thrown exceptions for iterators. In my book, exceptions are goto by another name.

That’s one of my plans in the future if I decide to go back to Canada, work for a us startup or something and get us salary, Canadian salaries are terrible
I usually give the interviewers a brief assessment of what they did wrong in the interview and how it cost them the opportunity to bring in a skilled, insightful, and flexible employee.
Since 2020, not a beautiful country anymore.
Title could just be "Google deprecates open source Dialer and Messages apps". But yeah, this is hardly a surprise, almost every app Google had on Android used to be open source and nearly all of them have been replaced with proprietary variants over time.
It’s so interesting, even few years ago I wouldn’t guess the main AI problem was “it generates convincing low-quality blogspam”.

There was all the stuff about singularity and how AI reinforces existing biases, but the most pressing problem seems to be “it’s seems almost right but also very wrong, way too cheaply”
Sorry to say, this is basically the "and then they became physics" answer that avoids engaging with the question.
"Lower cost of goods and services help everyone."

That's nice, but the reason there are so many "socialist" tendencies is there are so many authoritarian, nigh even fascist tendencies emerging. Companies are and have been increasing the cost of those goods and services, regardless of what inflation has been doing, _and not decreasing the prices afterwards_.

Lower cost of goods and services is a "conservative" fever dream - utter buck nonsense.

"Countries that meddle with the economy to keep incomes high end up having lower quality of life."

A corrupt person in a boardroom is the same as a corrupt person in political power - nobody benefits. Socialism at least demands those in positions of otherwise un-earned power are held accountable.
Or the PS3 being a cheap and consistently upgraded BluRay player.

I bought a slim as soon as they came out as a BluRay and media player. It was cheaper than about 95% of the other offerings at the time, had a way better UI and remote, and wasn't going to get locked out when content keys were rolled. It supported upnp media playback, so I could stick a mediatomb machine in a closet and use a nice remote and UI in the living room. A side benefit being that you can get dirt cheap laser modules and keep it going forever.
Micro-transactions wouldn’t eliminate ads. How many years did people buy ad filled newspapers or magazines? How about paying for cable tv that channels show ads on in between tv show segments that also do in content ad placement? You’re just describing another source of revenue for websites, not the only one.
Ask HN: CLI tool like Docker-compose but fully local?
The config format is very nice and the way it lets you launch multiple containers with various environment variables and view their logs in a single stream. Is there an analogous tool out there that provides this for local executables?

And dozens (hundreds) of other industries have been/are being consumed by the internet/computer technology. We can miss them, wish them to continue, but change is inevitable.
This claim doesn't make sense. Every store I've seen in the last five years includes nominal sizing of their dimensional lumber (which, for a 2x4, is generally a quarter off on every side, not an eighth)--and if you are buying dimensional lumber for its dimensions other than length, you either know what you're doing (I buy 2x8s and mill them sometimes) or you're doing it wrong.
What is your data and privacy policy? I'm a bit concerned not seeing anything when accessing such sensitive information. This is a non-starter for me.

Even if that was the case, the only authentication being through Google is another absolute blocker for me to using your service.

Also, your documentation loads extremely slows for me especially a single, static page of docs. That's clearly Notion's fault but isn't a great look.

I like the idea, but this definitely feels like it needs a lot of polish and feels more like a proof of concept than an actual product.
x86-64 Operating System to Play 2048
They're neither more powerful nor more flexible. Init-scripts can iterate & build whatever complexity they want. They can be far wilder. There's almost nothing constraining what an init script could be.

Systemd does establish easy-to-use & incredibly-powerful access a wide range of super-powerful knobs. And in a consistent & clear way, where-as each init-script would have a totally different way of doing config & slightly different approaches to the various hacks. And init scripts arent composable, where-as you can take your distro's regular unit, and drop-in some additional configuration easily, in a very eloquent way, across any bit of config. I think systemd is amazing & brings enormous clarity. It has enormous power.

But init-scripts still had more power. But it was reckless chaotic power that was enormously hard to tap, and required prodigal talent to develop these individual artisinal artefacts, which became, as a user, a thing of horror to rework. Init-scripts almost never were particularly flexible or powerful, but so help you if you ran into such an artefact.

The watches were at the time considered an example of reliable manufacturing. It's sad to have this tradition fading away.
Note that NLC is a GUI interface to control dummynet and PF (packet filter). It sets up rules to inject packet relay and drop a certain percentage of packets based on the profile.

You can use dnctl and pfctl on macOS to do similar things and more.
I’m using a pinetime and loving it. I use a Garmin Forerunner 735XT for training only with gps but it’s battery life is superb.
Designed with different goals absolutely, they have very different use cases that they individually accel at.

This however does not stop people from trying to use their one preferred language fer beyond it's focus area.

IMO one of the major turning points in a developers career is when they learn that finding the right tool for the problem is always the game you are playing. But this almost always takes learning this lesson the hard way by pushing a language one know very well past its breakpoint.
Only for people working for domestic customers. Others may benefit as having more people already in Canada generates a network effect. Really though this policy benefits both the lower paid workers which are not being competed against and those owning property which is enough to get support for a policy like this.
Maybe I misinterpreted “flaky test detection, suppression” and “not going to fail builds.” You retry until a confirmed success before merging?
Not sure what you are asking. You can build a container for a local executable- with docker and a Dockerfile- and then run that container in compose?
Why?! Because it was too good, or because it was too terrible?
good 90's vibes
Nah, people used to pay buskers with pocket change.

That happens less because they don't carry cash anymore.

It's the same thing here.

If it was easier to do, more people would do it.

Look at Onlyfans. People pay good money for what you can get for free.
Those are new grads and frankly most Canadian CS programs are awful to the point that if you are forced to hire one of those, may as well hire an Indian contractor remotely.

The choice is between jobs going offshore or people coming to work here as most new grads are not job ready. I have interviewed ones who have never done a pull request before.
Cool idea. What happens when these services do start offering webhooks?

What does “intelligently” polling mean?

You’d basically have to poll on some schedule (ideally configured by the user).
This is the kind of shit I thought could theoretically happen and it was one of the reason I got rid of Android a few years ago and got a PinePhone when my smartphone died. I've been counting on the Linux mobile ecosystem to develop so we have an good alternative to Android and iOS.

It's not there yet. I need my phone to be reliable and IMHO, it would need to reliably let me place an emergency call if I ever needed it. It's not yet the case. For now, I'm using my first phone, which is not a smartphone, and the PinePhone serves the smartphone-specific needs I have on the go like look something up on the internet or display a map. Which is already something.

The Linux mobile ecosystem has greatly improved though, I still have hope that it'll be usable in a few years.
> but you at least get access when you need it.

As long as your insurance approves.
I think Occam’s razor would suggest the religious explanation is more likely that hot air balloon technology. Doing large scale things for religious reasons is well documented for thousands of years before and after these were constructed. Hot air balloons? Not so much.
I know but I was curious if there was a something for local orchestration when not putting it into a container, since docker+compose do a lot of things other than just launch them in parallel.
Society has a real problem when it comes to mental illness, because society doesn't know what to do with it.

In times and places with established Churches and theocracies, behavior was dealt with, sometimes harshly. You could be a heretic or a witch or a village idiot. Generally, anyone who would fit a "mental illness" diagnostic was stigmatized and ostracized in some way. Now, of course there was plenty of treatment. The Church provides a path to salvation for anyone to follow with the proper discipline, and even for the invincibly ignorant there is hope. Sin was understood in a particular way. It was the family that would provide support and care for those who had trouble.

Unfortunately the genesis of mental illness is often in the family or the community. People are subjected to trauma, or abuse, or just a poor upbringing, and this will often engender problems. But now you've disestablished the Church and you've ensured that families are as fragmented, small and weak as possible, so what do you do with your outcasts and dangerously crazy people? You can't condemn them morally.

So without a moral framework to label these outcasts, it makes sense (no it doesn't) to extend the medical discipline to the mind and the behavior. Simply diagnose disorders on the basis of symptoms and treat them with medication. Everyone already trusts (no we don't) that Western medical interventions produce great outcomes for those who are sick, so we can deem people "sick in the head" and worthy of medical treatment despite having healthy bodies (for now, until the side effects kick in.)

So "mental illness" is established as a morally-neutral framework for dealing with witches, heretics, and village idiots. The lens of "behavioral health" widens scope to anyone who acts out for unexplained reasons. No, it's not a choice, it's not a preference: that's a strawman, but what is it? It is often the result of making one small choice after another, for decades.

My psychiatrist informed me that I am literally brain-damaged, that my brain has sustained physical damage that will never be undone, and that's why I'm on medication for life. And I bristled at this suggestion, but I actually know it's true. I have made life choices. We all make incremental life choices according to our preferences, and some of us repeatedly make irrational choices which send us down a path where there is no turning back. Therefore it is important to separate children from abusive and traumatic situations, and it is important to intervene with therapies that can help people make better choices, incrementally, and return to a good path, and stay there, however the community might define that recovery. It is possible.
Just another step towards Ubuntu or another proper linux distro to take over the phone space.
Spotify has a lot of revenues with millions of users at $10 - $20 per month. Perhaps they give very little to artists but I’m not sure it is necessary to operate. If artists had no other ways to make money, I suspect they would pay more as otherwise the system wouldn’t work.
I’m on the sudo-rs team: we are actually very mindful of the dependencies we use. Our current main branch already uses significantly fewer dependencies than a few months ago. Aside from security it also really helps with adoption since it makes packaging way easier. A large part of the output you got is due to a tempfile dependency, which is a dev only dependency that is not touched when compiling a release/dev binary, only during testing a small part of this would be used. I say a small part because most of it is related to tempfile running on windows, which is irrelevant for sudo-rs since we don’t support or intend to support windows.

Just for good measure though and to prevent any further discussion about this I’ve removed the tempfile dependency from the main sudo crate as our usage of it could easily be replaced by a simple timestamp/pid combination. But again, this really only affected testing, I think the size of the code that ends up in the final binary is very reasonable.

As for people suggesting supply chain attacks via dev dependencies: I doubt we would be the final target of such an attack: i.e. what an attacker would really want is access on all/some machines that have sudo-rs installed. The only way to do that would be to change the release artifacts, which dev dependencies do not have the ability to change, at least not directly, so such an attack would only be the first step in a chain of attacks. I have a feeling that there are way easier and less detectable ways of manipulating us than by using modified dev dependencies. Of course that doesn’t mean we should ignore the risks.
Sooo... Pretty much just like humans then?

Competitiveness != Free Market

If fact, if you want competitiveness you need to prevent a fully free market.

No matter how many times this is explained, people still continue to make this incredibly simple and enormously consequential mistake.

If we're taking the reductionist view that economic output is the only important measure of society, then people need to understand that means maximizing competition not maximizing a free market.
I've also never written a press release.
I want to see more wearable tech besides watches.

I've never been a fan of things on my wrist, but I have a problem of missing calls from my wife when my phone is on vibrate. I don't need a screen, just something that is close enough to my body to always vibrate noticeably without being uncomfortable.

Canada pays pretty well on tech, probably only 2nd to the USA ?
how do we know the data is unbiased? their goal is to sell you adwords
The exception case is those of us without degrees: Express Entry is a non-starter without a degree unless you go through a provincial nomination program that's willing to also overlook the lack of degree (AFAIK the BC Tech Pilot may be the only relevant example to us software folk). The Global Talent Stream visas are (to my knowledge) the only skilled worker visas in Canada that don't require degrees, and thus are what I used for the year or so I lived in Canada. I suspect this new open work permit scheme will resolve the lone issue GTS visas had for such workers: that if the job didn't work out, as mine didn't, you have to (1) flagpole, or (2) go home (which is what I did).

So, yeah, probably still relatively low takeup, but it's going to solve a corner case that, if I had the energy or interest to move back to Canada (which unfortunately seems to have suffered lots of the same issues the US has in the past several years, just in differing flavors at times), I'd be thankful to have solved.

I agree that pronouncing identifiers over the phone is rare. But I’m occasionally typing identifiers from:

2. another device where I can’t easily take an identifier
Can't pay your bills without a job... They are constantly A/B testing things and running competitive teams. If profitability is the goal and you aren't the most profitable you can be on the table for the next round of layoffs.
> For example, consider going full anti-BS. Basically, any whiff of attempting to manipulate search hits, or stealing/republishing content, or using generative AI is considered a strong signal for low quality, punishable by search engine death sentence.

We are doing something like this at Kagi search.

While it is difficult to detect each of these on their own, what is easy to detect is the purpose of the web page if it has advertising on it (and most of these pages exist for the purpose of monetizing low quality content). So we downrank ad-filled pages in our results. It is a simple but effective method for filtering out low quality content.

Beta ALIA-250, an eVTOL, and CX300, a conventional takeoff and landing aircraft that's basically the ALIA 250 with the lift motors and supporting structure deleted to get through certification sooner, and serve a few markets that don't need VTOL.

We're a little bit quieter than some of the other players, as we're still a private company and are focusing more on engineering than marketing right now.

> If such analysis unlocks technology breakthroughs of the kind that would solve say, energy problems, the government now has the problem of sitting on secrets that it has no legal pathway to introduce to the public, and no way to explain without somehow coming clean.

They would just release it and come clean. No one would be mad that we suddenly have near-magical solutions to energy problems.

What you're describing is essentially what happened with the Manhattan Project, which was a tightly guarded military secret. But once it became clear there were civilian applications, they stood up the Atomic Energy Commission and helped the rest of the country get to work on nuclear energy.
Most custom ROMs don't seem to use the AOSP dialer anyway. I've mostly seen forks with some nice features Google's dialer still lacks (call recording, for one).

How do you expect a new grad (assuming no internship experience) to have done a PR? I agree the university should've taught version control, though.

I am an Indian graduate who has decent experience with actual programming, even contributed to open source, and yet struggled to get a job in between my peers who have done 300 Leetcode problems and nothing else.

So I assume the hiring meter for most juniors is not "can use version control" or "can architect a 1000 line codebase with decent OOP". It's "can recurgigate 300-500 common Leetcode problems and can cheat in online coding tests". We are all in a bubble.
Those look all programming related tokens, and I think they should relate to their focus of improving this model's code generation capabilities, and adding quite a bit of data related to that (BigCode Starcoder in the Second stage in pre-training https://blog.salesforceairesearch.com/xgen/#pre-training-dat... )
