The `box` syntax to create `Box`es has been removed because it was broken. The initial idea was to have it initialize the value directly in the heap, but that never worked for function calls. The `box` pattern instead remained as it was still useful to have (really unfortunate for the perma-unstable status though).
People always worry that Microsoft is silverlighting (that is a verb now) MAUI. I think that would be the end of VisualStudio. The word Visual had a meaning. When they would give up MAUI in favor of React Native (like Office) or Blazor (like the popular opinion), why the hack someone would buy a VS license. And when the think they could again commercialize .NET itself, then .NET would be dead. Modern Java, Flutter and TypeScript would easily swallow their market shares. MAUI, Blazor and .NET are an awesome set of products if they would just put some more concentration in MAUI.
You assume that I continued using Apple devices. After that experience, I disabled Siri, iCloud, etc. on my mom's iPad and personally have never bought any new Apple devices.
This is such a HN article.
The bigger pain point, from memory, was having an ODBC-compliant driver so the OS
could actually talk to your DB. That basically meant MSSQL if you wanted to co-exist happily with early dotnet.
I'd be curious to see that benchmark. I also don't have an initial guess about which would be faster:

* Format a string, pass it to a function, and the function decides whether to emit it, then how to render it.

* Pass in the template and parameters to a function, and the function decides whether to emit it, then how to render it.

F-strings are pretty darn fast. I don't know how much relative overhead there would be in calling the logging function, and in the logging function's decision tree about whether to emit a log message.
Same reason as Borland Pascal.
Nearly all "new" frameworks have been Swift-only over the last few years. Like you mention, CryptoKit and widgets, but also Combine, the entirety of SwiftUI, and even smaller things like the ProximityReader framework they released with iOS 15.4. They're even rewriting Foundation using Swift while exposing an Obj-C compatible ABI. Of course, any new API in frameworks which are already Obj-C are usually written in Obj-C and exposed to Swift. This means new Obj-C code will be written for years to come.
This seems quite broken? Passenger car gas stations in the US, and my limited experience in Germany, are designed for cars to stop for 5 minutes to get ~300 miles of range. Truck stops are designed to accommodate quite long stays but those are much less dense and only on major freeway routes.

The original (and HN) article title is clickbaity. This isn't a "will". It's not a law yet.
It only works with toy examples and then stops working. For reasons unknown, as it should work.
The answer is usually an infinite number, except for very, very simple cases. Anything involving * for example means infinity is your answer.
Absolutely, using Google Analytics can be highly beneficial for gaining insights into your website's performance. It provides valuable data on user behavior, traffic sources, and content engagement.

However, it's essential to consider your specific needs and goals. If you're concerned about user privacy, explore privacy-focused analytics alternatives like Matomo or Fathom Analytics. Additionally, ensure compliance with data protection regulations like GDPR. Ultimately, the choice depends on your priorities and the level of data you want to collect while respecting user privacy.
No this has nothing to do with introversion. It has nothing to do with social skills or confidence. Most introverts are actually quite charming one on one.

For introverts social contact is simply EXHAUSTING. So there is a high cost to every social interaction. Hence why they avoid parties, or responding to your messages or any of the other things that extorverts seem to think are so "fun". I wish extroverts would understand this...
Sure, but the value of me having a second provider is usually zero… and in the cases where I realize it’s suddenly non-zero, it’s substantially non-zero. (E.g. backpacking trip extended a day or two, trying to get weather update to assess flash flood risk.) This distortion is why I feel like providers should be interested.
It is novel in terms of using physically accurate models such as edge diffraction to localize edges instead of the object as a whole. Most narrowband radar based imaging approaches consider extended objects as a collection of omnidirectional point scatterers, which may not be the most optimal representation....
I call bollocks on that, enforcement is a matter of breaking free of regulatory capture just long enough to implement a system. I am not in the thick of this discussion but think of the Number Portability legislation that carriers were forced (through enforcement) to implement and extend that right of ownership model to our data and digital identities so you can not be deplatformed by AI on a filter whim walled off from years of family photo uploads. We should have our own individual terms of service provisions that these platforms have to negotiate and agree in triplicate to before monitizing personally identifiable information to data brokers for hire.
Philip K. Dick guesses right again. Pre-crime.
Because the code classified it as a "this should never happen!" error, and then it happened. The code didn't classify it as a "flight plan has bad data" error or a "flight plan data is OK but we don't support it yet" error.

If a "this should never happen!" error occurs, then you don't know what's wrong with the system or how bad or far-reaching the effects are. Maybe it's like what happened here and you could have continued. Or maybe you're getting the error because the software has a catastrophic new bug that will silently corrupt all the other flight plans and get people killed. You don't know whether it is or isn't safe to continue, so you stop.
Seems appropriate on 9/11 to read about anti-terrorism laws being used to impinge on regular people's civil liberties.
This is not a glorious story of a technical team pulling out all stops to win.

It’s a company in serious financial trouble sinking and the CEO making terrible micromanaged decisions and railroading and bullying his experts.

Straight NO to working for Musk.

I loved the Walter Isaacson Steve Jobs biography but zero interest in reading this book.
>The limiting factor that will determine whether any resonances are excited is the size of the square region in a right-angle PCB trace. In particular, the lateral size of the region will be approximately equal to the quarter wavelength of the lowest order resonance, so this gives you a good baseline for estimating the fundamental resonance frequencies. The remaining harmonics will be approximately odd multiples of the fundamental frequency. If we allow a very generous trace width of 30 mils with an effective dielectric constant of 3.5, the lowest order frequency is 112 GHz! If we take this as a knee frequency for a digital signal, this is equivalent to a 3 ps rise time, which is well-below that for commercially available digital components. [0]

That whole article addresses the myths surrounding right angle traces pretty effectively.

There is a significant overap - fuel up, find the restroom, grab some snacks.

EV chargers have the benefits of being cheap, take little space, and permitting is raesonably simple. Expecting them to be way more widespread than fuel stations ever can be.
If I had to make guesses, my take is a viral+immune system interaction. You get the virus which causes your own immune system to respond. In that response we get a 'partial match' to something inside of our own system. This leads to a low level inflammatory attack against your own system.

In type 1 diabetics there is some evidence of a post viral auto-immune cause in some cases.

I think this is simply tapping into existing infrastructure. It's not all bad. When I stop to charge, usually I'll find the nearest washroom and use it (why not?). I might grab a snack or something, too. A gas station satisfies both these requirements and is already grid-connected (electricity, plumbing, waste).

What I'd like to see more of is comforts -- I want a comfy place to sit and relax for a bit or a park trail to walk around. I hate when I pull into a charger and it's just a parking lot. Not stimulating at all. Nothing to do but sit there. If I'm not using the gas station amenities it's not much better than an empty parking lot.

I feel like gas stations have this "grind" / roadtrip mentality whereas I kind of want a relaxing, decompression space to charge my car. So maybe you're right...
My simple 5yo, non-wifi6 router gets me a reliable signal through at least two walls, so I would imagine any somewhat modern router would meet your requirements.
Yes it is nonsense.
Nice response thanks for that. I’m also a cfser but can’t really point to any viral thing personally. I appreciate your skeptical eye.
FWIW, the lifetime of a CRT display is generally less than the lifetime of the rest of the PC. I don't think it's much trouble to install a card on a PC that didn't happen to have composite out, or to want something better than composite on a modern LCD display. You don't have to get it. It's not for you. That's OK.
>I guess it's an opinion but the soul of open-source is collective work contributing to a common good.

that may be partially true, but it sounds like the kind of generalization that leads people like Musk or corporations like alphabet/meta/whoever to throw around the phrase 'Open' in an effort to receive kudos for themselves and their groups.

the soul of open-source is the open source. One doesn't need to be altruistic to participate, it's just nice when that happens.
What's to prevent them from just spinning this off under the Alphabet name? IANAL but wouldn't that be the logical course of action at Google to avoid the wrath of the justice department?
I wonder if Microsoft hired a few too many laid off Meta and Twitter product people.
But Twitter isn't a newspaper engaging in editorial decisions. It is a massive online communications platform that is moderating posts, most often, on an automated basis. I don't think there's any actual support for your comparisons at all.

>Simply, they need to enumerate their internal editorial policies.

I think you are confused, Twitter already publishes it's moderation policies, this is a report on to what extent they stay true to that. Your argument would maybe make more sense in a context where a newspaper had to provide a report on its editorial decisions (which obviously go well beyond the letters to the editor section). But that really only actually serves to the emphasize the huge difference between editing and moderating.

>In the end, there's no good answer to this question. Every answer any service would publish, is the "wrong answer".

I don't think you are engaging in this topic with any honest, especially if this is the conclusion you are coming to. As far as I can tell the only wrong answer to the report would be if it was not accurate about the information it stated or was incomplete. There seems to be nothing as regards to judging whether or not a moderation system is good or bad, or "does the right thing". Let alone something so politically pointed as what you suggested.
From what I gathered from the article, the input WAS valid. It's the software that was unable to handle a specific case of valid input.
People like us are outliers. Most people get notifications for every email they receive, and are used to getting emails from every business with which they transact.
Yes, but this app had too many permissions. I might give it a try again, as I'm getting really desperate.
It's super weird to me to claim CFS is caused by psychological issues. Imagine all the people who were whining about COVID shutdowns and isolating for 14 days or whatever, with people frothing at the mouth about how depressing and how stunted their children are for not going to school. Okay, wow, looks like CFS forces you to do all that isolating/missing school/etc, maybe that causes mental illness the way it caused that for the broader population...
When I mention that my phone "broke," I mean that my SIM cards stopped responding completely. I couldn't use it to access the internet or make/receive calls and messages. I concluded that the issue was with my mobile phone because I was using a physical SIM card alongside my eSIM, and the physical SIM also stopped working simultaneously. However, when I transferred my physical SIM to a new device, it started working again.

You can imitate it in Java, but the ergonomics are worse.

I’m with you on the first paragraph, but in the second paragraph you may not be aware that Germany has a clear and legally binding roadmap to end coal mining. Could it be quicker? Sure. Would it have helped if nuclear power stations would have remained on the grid in Germany? marginally at best.
What advantages does this measure have over fuel taxes?

As far as I know, (higher) fuel taxes are more effective, much more fair, create better incentives and have more scientific evidence backing them up than this, but I may be missing something.

My first programming job in the 90s while I was still in college was building systems exactly like you describe (and they were as poorly built as you think hah). I worked for a small IT programming/consulting shop. We did small jobs like this in town in addition to installing networks, IVRs, etc... while working on larger software to sell (which is an entirely different/crazy story that involved burning CD demos and using a hand 'stomper' to label and then mail them out).
> you’re implicitly agreeing that these categories are real things

You have this the wrong way around: these things have legal definitions in both state and federal law, and your "agreement" is not a mandatory condition.

Put another way: the state of California is not interested in whether you think hate speech is real. The suit doesn't hinge on that at all; it hinges on whether the government can compel corporate speech that amounts to a disclosure of internal policies. Which it can, for the same reason that the government can compel businesses to do their taxes, file permits, and disclose their political contributions.
So the argument is that viable alternatives to ICE cars are a threat and should be prevented?
I wonder if Mojo could change this? I'm not that familiar with ML, but they're claiming[1] to have a unified "AI Engine" that abstracts away the particular hardware. That would stop the "engineers are more familiar with NVidia => NVidia ecosystem gets more investment..." flywheel.

It's really sad, but yes, this is what I ultimately ended up doing too. There was no way to configure the filters to very closely approximate what the feed was showing previously that I could find. The new algorithm always seemed to want to throw stuff at you that was slightly outside the bounds of what you were specifically following (clearly done to help you "discover" something else that you may be interested in, treating it as if this was a social media platform instead of a coding platform ...).

Maybe the number of possible matchings for a given length (or range of lengths) might be interesting?
I wish there was more data on how much it is getting used. To say that 18% of people used something is one thing. The question for me is, what percentage of people used the free version once or twice for novelty purposes and then never touched it again.

A different poll from the same org found that the number of people who had used it was 14% back in May.

If I'm remembering the timeline right, it really hit the zeitgeist hard in February, so it seems as if the growth is leveling off.

In any case, getting 18% of people in the US to use your product in less than a year is still nothing to sneeze at.
Github has a social media feed?

I'm not seeing any of that. I look at files on Github. I search code. I push commits to Github. I create issues. I look at issues. I look at project pages.
I look at code. I search code. Git and Cargo talk to Github on my behalf.

None of this shows me any social media stuff.
If I start seeing "For You" on project pages, I'll switch to a new provider.
I really hope Github doesn't pull a Facebook.
That it's safety critical is all the more reason it should fail gracefully (albeit surfacing errors to warn the user). A single bad flight plan shouldn't jeopardize things by making data on all the other flight plans unavailable.
It's no more crazy than trying to build an OS out of a web browser.
Asking because my context as an American may not apply: If an American were jailed for the maximum 60 days, then they would almost certainly be fired from their job for non-attendance and become 30+ days late on all of their bills since you cannot pay bills from jail. This includes car payments and/or rent, which can result in repossession/eviction proceedings being filed.

Is the situation for short-term prisoners similar in Germany?
Depends on the charging density. I drove across Canada and, when I knew the next charger was under 200km away I'd "fill up" for maybe 5 minutes and get on with my journey.

Unlike an ICE, you want to keep your car between like 10% and 70% while road-tripping for charging efficiency.

There are times I'd stop for 30+ minutes but typically I'd go find a place to eat or take a walk at those stops.
> so why the 4 hour lead time

To answer your question without conspiracy drivel, let's look up CAP 694: The UK Flight Planning Guide [0]

Chapter 1

> 6.1 The general ICAO requirement is that FPLs should be filed on the ground at least 60 minutes before clearance to start-up or taxi is requested. The "Estimated Off Block Time" (EOBT) is used as the planned departure time in flight planning, not the planned airborne time.

> 6.3 IFR flights on the North Atlantic and on routes subject to Air Traffic Flow Management, should be filed a minimum of 3 hours before EOBT (see Chapter 4).

Chapter 4

> 1.1 The UK is a participating State in the Integrated Initial Flight Plan Processing System (IFPS), which is an integral part of the Eurocontrol centralised Air Traffic Flow Management (ATFM) system.

> 4.1 FPLs should be filed a minimum of 3 hours before Estimated Off Block Time (EOBT) for North Atlantic flights and those subject to ATFM measures, and a minimum of 60 minutes before EOBT for all other flights.

So the answer is because the UK is part of a Europe-wide air traffic control system, which hands out full flight plans to all the relevant authorities for each airspace, and they decided 3 hours is needed so that all possible participants can get their shit together and tell you if they accept the plan or not.

An entirely separate system exists to share Advanced Passenger Information, i.e. passenger manifests [1], and it goes even further that airlines share your overall identity with each other, known as a Passenger Name Record [2], and a variety of countries, led by the USA, insist on this information in advance before the plane is allowed to take off [3]

If you're going to be paranoid, please work with known facts instead of speculating.

It's not the internet that's not real, it's the dream space that it induces in it's victims.

This is the same as the dream state involked by, say, reading a novel, or watching a movie, or even going into that out-of-body experience that occurrs when someone is immersed in code development, or painting. But the dream state invoked by the internet is interactive, personallized, and orders of magnitude more potent than any of those traditional media pathways.

What's not real is what the human is imagining while they use the internet.

It's a fantasy world. And while transcending to a fantasy state is essential for imaginative innovation, like solving a hard programming problem, it's equally essential that those benefits be brought back to the real world, physical 3D reality.

This is the part that doesn't happen with the fantasy escape of trending "nonsense".

The meme-speak is just a medium of expression for the illiterate.

Really sad that once again "girls" are just a means of enforcing mindless consumption for the benefit of ownership.

This break from physiccal reality has been abrupt, and near ubiquitous, and quite likely the end of the modern world order...
Previously when you told it your favourite song (directly or indirectly) it would have outputted something like "NB: favourite song is X" and then that would be included in the prompt forever afterwards.

Anthropic has models that can input ~75k words, so I don't think this is far fetched as a way of adding memory to LLMs.
I think the historical consensus now is that the amount of work the US put into destabilizing Allende is overstated. Allende was unpopular due to mismanaging the Chilean economy without any help from the US. From what I understand, the US was actually surprised to learn that Pinochet had overthrown Allende because they considered it too early to do so. I believe, at most, the US had paid for campaign/propaganda material against Allende.

Pinochet goes into a bucket of other dictators like himself, such as Park Chung Hee and Lee Kwon Yu, who ruthlessly cracked down on political opposition (particularly leftists), but who modernized their respective economies and (in the case of Pinochet) brought them back from the brink of utter economic collapse. These figures remain controversial in their home countries because they were a double-edged sword: the economic advancement which benefitted everyone was paid for with blood

Today, the US Left remembers this as beginning a period of neoliberalism (Chicago school economics) in much of the developing world which had just begun to set its ambitions much higher than they could reasonably afford. They consider this to be a bad thing because they didn't live through the period of the 1970s in which expanded fiscal and irresponsible monetary policy allowed inflation to rise and governments to explode their debt/gdp ratio, with disastrous results
