And the quote to go along with it:

"I'm always delighted by the light touch and stillness of early programming languages. Not much text; a lot gets done. Old programs read like quiet conversations between a well-spoken research worker and a well-studied mechanical colleague, not as a debate with a compiler. Who'd have guessed sophistication bought such noise?"
>which constrains what kind of software can become popular.

It also enables more software to be popular because it will be cheaper to run sites and sites can be more profitable that before.

> Serious question: What does this statement mean? Do you believe there to be conduct that is non-criminal and still validates police intimidation? What would that be? It's not like OP walked into the police station and hinted that he was a murderer.

> the police should be able to resist the temptation to intimidate them

Both of you are throwing around the word "intimidation" to describe the police questioning why some idiot walked into a police station strapped and wearing a camera. Is he allowed to do it? Sure. The implication here is that the police aren't allowed to even question him though without it automatically becoming intimidation or interrogation (you're doing it too now), because that crosses a line somehow.

OP appears to be the frequent victim of "harassment," provides no evidence to substantiate his anecdote, and uses loaded verbiage like "obviously intimidating" to reframe perceptions of the alleged encounter and end it with defamatory accusations.

Ticks all the boxes in the performative outrage playbook.

> Is there literally anything on that video that could convince you the police mishandled OP's situation? The police know how to intimidate people -- doing so is literally their job when it comes to getting people to comply with orders or to answer questions in interrogation.

Not really. I'm surrounded by women and have a stepdaughter with terminal Munchausen syndrome so I'm used to histrionics and abuse of the courtroom Kuleshov effect. That one throws around sexual harassment allegations, trying to show individual text messages as evidence. Then you ask to see the full conversation and she gets cagey. You dig deeper and you learn she solicited the other party.

So here we have a guy who seems to get harassed everywhere he goes. We learn he is presenting himself in a conspicuously-threatening way, and are told that the very act of asking an armed man questions in the lobby by the police should obviously be interpreted as "intimidation."

Let's recap:

> Man threatens police, on their own turf.

> Police ask questions.

> Man cries police intimidation.

> Everyone is told to ignore the fact that man tried to antagonize police and nothing happened. Police are bad!

It's bullshit. Desperate attorneys do this florid dubbed-over visualization crap too-- "let me explain to you what you're actually seeing in this amateur video of a man--possibly woman, who knows (gender is a social construct after all!)--who looks like my client (but may or may not actually be), appearing to gently tap the victim with a roll of what could be soft paper towels, but it's possible if you look at it from a weird angle, it's possible it might look a little like a baseball bat."

Yeah sure - it absolutely has drawbacks. I too have spent time going "what the heck is this actually doing". But man when you're not debugging one of those wonky things, Rails just feels like programming with a rocket strapped to your chair.

Is it the most maintainable code? No. Is it the easiest to understand? It depends tbh. Rails provides so much out-of-the-box stuff that lots of rails apps end up looking sufficiently similar, especially if they're small-to-medium-sized. But yes you can end up writing some dreadful spaghetti without a bit of discipline, but imo that's true of python and (node) js as well.

But damn is it SO fast to get up and going. And given product-market fit is why most projects and products fail, it's hard to argue against using Rails for me, since if I'm even still here to complain about it later, that's already a win.
In addition to fruit trees, I was told that finding lilacs growing in an unusual spot might mean there used to be an outhouse or waste pile nearby: they planted lilacs to mask the smell. No idea if it's true or useful.

That’s not a question of being a wrapper, it’s a question of using Bing’s spam list. The difference is about sites Bing doesn’t include but also doesn’t specifically exclude.

PS: As to your edit, they have specifically mentioned using Bing in the past alongside other engines. They are clearly running their own search process and widgets while also using a lot of data from Bing. I can see why you might consider it deceptive, though I really don’t.
But my point is that the US is hindering China's chip industry development just fine, without a single gunshot fired, and it's considered totally mundane.

There are a lot of ways developed countries can nudge developing ones toward better energy efficiency. Many of them (like, say, funding solar arrays or nuclear plants) would actually benefit these countries. Some of them (say, higher customs tax for products made with fossil fuel energy) may not, but they can be implemented incrementally and paired with other "carrots" like renewable energy projects.

4) Go to your government to get the biggest cash out immediately, for the lowest risk (they may be unhappy if you didn't disclose it to them first), also putting your nation potentially massively ahead of others.

They supposedly started playing with this in 1999. If they discovered this stuff nearly two decades ago and SK was let in on it, maybe they have a whole array of military projects built around it already?

> Today such a research environment exists only in our dreams, short of winning a MacArthur Fellowship. Most researchers today work in environments where their direction is heavily influenced by the people funding them. In order for researchers to pursue their own research vision and be paid for it, they must persuade a company or a funding agency that the pursuit of this vision will benefit the funders.

The Thiel fellowship program which is similar produced many billionaires from somewhat new technology, maybe not quite fundamental research. However some of them achieved it through ponzi schemes with world changing amounts of carbon burned for cryptomining waste heat.

One lab is definitely not adequate.

Replication attempts don't give you an unambiguous signal, many things can go wrong.

If one lab hasn't succeeded in replicating the paper, does that mean the paper is wrong, or just that a necessary step wasn't documented clearly or followed correctly?

More labs trying to replicate give you more independent signals.

It's a somewhat difficult argument to say that it's easier to build from scratch, but I hear what you're saying. At any rate, it is absolutely more fun to build from scratch.

I've polled developers about what part of software development they hate, and in general, it's deployment and maintenance (ie: devops). Using a off-the-shelf-component means that the developer only gets to do the un-fun part: installing, configuring, productionizing. If they code their own solution, they get to spend a few weeks coding!

Experimentation and high rates of failure is the nature of software on new platforms. So many websites, apps, games, etc. created for computers will utterly fail, but the ones that succeed end up defining generations (Minecraft, Excel, Google)
Is what? You forgot the rest of the title.
DHCP relies on Ethernet broadcasts to function - meaning DHCP messages are received by every NIC on the subnet. So ... already not private.

PF_PACKET is needed to look at those broadcasts because the system might not have an IP, so it can't use TCP or UDP sockets.

PF_PACKET on Linux evidently ignores iptables.

Good news: PF_PACKET requires root to use (more precisely, CAP_NET_RAW capability).

So root processes can totally ignore your firewall. This doesn't matter because:

- a firewall is really for managing external communications. If you have stuff running on localhost sending or receiving unwanted stuff, and you don't trust it, why is it running on your machine then?

- root can already simply disable the firewall by removing iptables rules or adding ones.

You can always move to IPv6 which uses multi-cast and self-generated link-local addresses, meaning PF_PACKET isn't necessary.

Failing attestation does not mean you get blacklisted. It means that you are not as trustworthy. Not every CVE breaks an OS's security model.

"You can build a pretty good mental model of flight with either simplified mechanism"

For computational models, neither of these are great starting points. When I last looked, finite element methods were where the action was.

And if you don't apply the same to quantum -- looking for intuition -- you'll have a bad time. Quantum computing algorithms came from human insight.
Even with a smaller trailer, though, I'd expect a 33% or so range penalty-- it's just not too much of a win. You don't make it anywhere near twice as far.

It's _exactly_ how they framed it:

You can make a law to outlaw it, what you cannot expect is the side that does not want that law to not voice their opinions and not make arguments counter to yours.

Tesla owner, not saying they didn’t do this, but to consider…

The range in an EV is impacted by more variables than a gasoline vehicle. I’ve seen so many sensationalized headlines the last couple a weeks, in particular one about how the heat wave is killing electric cars.

Look, as with any big change, people have to learn how the new thing works and that takes time. I don’t get the same range on a 95 degree day as I do on a 75. The rain impacts it, charging my phones impacts it, running the AC impacts it. I believe the number provided in the vehicle is fairly accurate and considers a handful of factors. But others like your driving style also have a huge impact and there is no way to account for that.

Can the software get better and incorporate more variables in its estimate? Yes. Do consumers also just assume the number displayed is perfect? Also yes.

We had this same problem when GPS navigation became available. There were stories of people who followed the guidance before their common sense and ended up in strange places. Now we know to use it as a guide and check for common sense.
For smaller pieces, you are right. But as a BE engineer, I was prototyping a concept and I didn't know much about Typescript+React+React-Router-Dom+React-Hooks-Form, etc etc. So I listed the libraries, a few lines of boilerplate and API definitions that RTK toolkit generated for me. Then asked GPT to generate the full page. It was much faster than I could "code it myself".

And that's why it is a "pain point". These all can be done automatically.
Uptime isn't an important property of a backup solution, so I'm not sure where the expectation comes from?
My comment wasn't intended personally; your words about "will never recur" just reminded me of this peculiarity of software systems, where it's often error handling/monitoring/backups/etc. that cause cascading failures in the systems they're intended to safeguard.

Lee was stuck as an adjunct professor for 19 years. Kim thinks that physicists all have their head up their ass and he knows the shortcut to discovering superconductivity. And nature wouldn't publish their paper.

Combined with their inability to accurately measure Tc and a lot of skepticism already out there that their graphs show what they say they do this looks like poor science.

Which is not to accuse them of lying. It looks like they're just not very good, but think they're geniuses.
>"conventionally mean"

This is the problem. You have expressed some opinions, and think they are 'conventional' thus I should of course automatically understand you.

This is no longer true in our post-truth world. Both sides have re-defined vocabulary to a degree that conversation is near impossible. So guess you are really questioning why I don't open with more sympathetic readings of others posts? I should know everyone elses definitions, figure out which definition they are using, and then cross reference to my definitions?

What the first poster stated and what you have are not the same, and are not obviously 'conventional'.

You do know the 'trans' controversy is a completely made up story to lead the 'right' around by the nose?

You did state it, so you must know, there are genetic disorders and people that actually do suffer with them. There are a lot of other people that do not understand this, so hey, lets pick Trans to pile on. How can I know that the original poster really meant (calm) "MTF transition because of genetic disorder" versus (angry) "MTF wuut, ahhhh, bible bible, god, against nature"

The original poster was complaining because as a conservative, he was being censored by not being allowed to talk about how blacks have a lower IQ, thus I assumed he was in the camp of "bible bible, righteous vengeance, trans are unnatural, god told me to kill the abominations".
It isn't but the capacitor that is sitting on the far end of that circuit is limited by how fast you can pump current in or out. And if your current can go up considerably then the capacitor will charge that much faster and so your losses will be smaller because for the same 'on' duration of the MOSFET you can move more charge. Clearer now?
Show HN: FaangSupport – Easing Access to FAANG Customer Support
Hi HN! I'm building it. It's not uncommon to see complaints on HN about users being locked out of their Faang/Fortune 500 accounts, primarily by automated systems at these companies, and yet the provided support channels do not help. In Fact, one of these days, HN has become an unofficial support channel for FAANG. But what about those that don't know about HN?

Enter FaangSupport. FaangSupport connects you and me to verified (via email) Faang Volunteers. When complete, the main interface will be an Inbox like layout, through which you can create tickets and correspond with a Faang employee.

So my fellow HNers, would this work? Yes Faang Support is broken but would the solution look like this?

Thanks HN.

The Rot King
If I encounter something world-changing I'd consider it an ethical obligation to share it with the world. Show your work, be transparent about what you know and what you've found, and try to help others in replicating. Maintain humility.

Something I dislike about modern research is that there's not a lot of transparency or rapid updates. It wouldn't take someone much time to record a few additional videos and try to address concerns regarding the magnetic properties. If you really think the findings are important you should try to have public communications with other scientists where you share as much information as possible.

Too many people get caught up with playing politics and lose sight of the real goal, which is pushing humanity forward.
