1.3% addicted to the internet in urban areas, 3.5% addicted in rural areas.

Suggests that how easy it is to meet different people in the real world makes a big difference in how addicted people are to the internet.
Yes, I was also surprised that the new features are only for phones. I guess aiming to be "better" than other chat apps (with the others nowadays being Whatsapp and co) means to be "mobile first"... sigh
First of all, cograts!

As father of a 4yo and a 2yo, the only thing I can confidently say is that if available/possible, they need their dad to be around as much as possible. With this in mind, try to find a solution that works for everybody in both the family front and the financial front, but that doesn’t mean they get cut off of your presence.

My 4yo wakes up very early in the morning just to be with me, and my 2yo stays late at night (for her hours) just to be with me.

I’m very happy for you. Having kids is a wonderful experience :)
And lead is still allowed in aviation fuel. The planes (only piston?) are spraying it all over you every day.
That depends on the chemical makeup of the water (I think PH, but maybe something else). Some water will dissolve lead quickly and thus be unsafe, while others will not. Some water will leave a coating on the insides of pipes and so the lead doesn't even touch the water (this coating can build up over time though), while others will clean that coating off and so lead can touch the pipe.
They do have exactly such a thing: https://help.kagi.com/kagi/api/overview.html

Bankruptcy doesn't mean failure for large airlines. The shareholders get wiped out and bondholders take a haircut but the airplanes keep flying during the bankruptcy resolution so it's fine.
> You can always kill yourself.

This is usually painful and unpleasant, and also difficult for people with serious impairments (like ALS, for example). Perhaps euthanasia should be legal and perhaps not, but in any case the quick and painless death available via injection is very different from the death you would experience from hanging yourself (for example). There are dignified deaths and undignified deaths, and I think we should be clear about this distinction.
It’s disingenuous to call it a “perk”. It’s not the same as having office coffee or a ping pong table at the office.

Having to travel a lot is a known disadvantage of having one of these jobs. The ability to accrue miles or do in-lieu travel is touted as an offsetting factor for this. It’s literally mentioned as a part of the compensation package at places like job fairs or in interviews. In my past consulting job (and on places like r/consulting), people would literally calculate the dollar value of the miles/status you can accrue and would use it to compare compensation packages.

Losing this “perk” is more akin to having commission pay be a big part of your compensation, but then being told you’ll no longer get commission. It’s a material difference to what you expect to be paid.
They offer crypto payments, and you can cycle accounts through throwaway emails.

Vlad has addressed this several times; it’s a planned use case. They offer it because though they don’t keep logs they don’t expect everyone to trust that.

I can’t find the comment but he just addressed it a couple days ago here on HN.

But RSC is how you do server based apps with React, and they’re clearly sticking with React.

Sure you can render to static markup without RSC but then you have to do a lot of work to mix server/interactive client components, RSC makes it a lot easier to achieve “server based apps”.

It’s not a deceptive headline at all.
"Taking money" is a very poor description of a trade, which both parties chose to enter into because they both expect to derive benefit from it. What the parent objects to is presumably the "government/police/military expects to derive benefit" part, not the "taking money" part per se.

For the conspiracy theorists: this is the same reason why we can't just point Webb at the moon and get pictures of the lunar landing sites. In terms of arcseconds of the Webb's FOV, the moon landing site is much smaller than these distant galaxies (which blows my mind just how big those distant "objects" are).
Fixed link to that style guide entry: https://guide.clojure.style/#opt-commas-in-map-literals

Per that style guide, the above map should be formatted like this:

{:a 1
2 :bar
[1 2 3] :baz}

Most maps written in EDN have keys of a consistent type. A map whose keys are consistently keywords would look like this when formatted:

{:a 1
:bar "https://example.com/"
:baz [1 2 3]}

Or like this, when condensed to one line:

{:a 1, :bar "https://example.com/", :baz [1 2 3]}

The first map had keys of three different types: keyword `:a`, integer `2`, and vector `[1 2 3]`. Why would one want a format that supports maps with mixed-type keys? As a contrived example, mixed-type keys let you define a sparse 2D tile-based map for a game that is indexed by x and y coordinates:

{:default {:type :grass}
[0 1] {:type :npc-rival}
[2 3] {:type :wall}
[2 4] {:type :wall}
[100 -5] {:type :treasure, :contents :sword-of-slaying}}

Previously i used DDG and fell back to Startpage/Google constantly. With Kagi, i can't remember the last time i did that. I also get a lot of value out of FastGPT (a labs search thing from Kagi).

Overall, i'm very happy with my starter subscription.
Interesting the HN crowd is into this for the simple fact that you must be logged in (and presumably tracked?) to use it.
You can, Homekit call it "Adaptive Lighting". It's not as flexible though, you just turn it on and Apple does what it wants - there's no variables you can fiddle with if you don't like what its doing.
Any references to case law? AFAIK none really exists because it’s generally assumed that non commercial open source licenses with disclaimers are pretty legally resilient so haven’t been tested. But my scope is US only.
Right, but what are the chances that the "new material" doesn't include any elements of protected expression from the underlying work, e.g. characters? I understood the request to be about writing a sequel.

I don’t think the BOM is the issue. It’s a huge cost to have different variations for different regions, and a huge cost to go through certification for various regions. It’s obviously worth it for iPhone and watch, apparently worth it for iPad although most people I know buy the wifi only models. For MacBooks, even though they now share a lot of design with iPhones, I can’t see it being worth it for the few percent of customers that will pay extra for it on a MacBook.
> No, the cheapest are renewables.

Renewables are cheap most of the time, so we should build lots of them. The interesting question is what to do when the weather is bad. Currently the answer is to burn fossil fuels. We need to stop doing that.

> You seem to be treating this as a moral issue.

No, it's a physics issue. Every gram of CO2 we put into the air, someone in the future needs to remove at great expense. There is no reward for solving 80% of the problem and cooking our civilization a bit slower.
I don't really want this to be the case. Remember when Firefox accidentally exposed all gstreamer plugins to the web?

Having some insecure unaudited badly written codec is fine for a lot of use cases because it operates on trusted data. But this is of course quite a different situation than being exposed to all webpages you visit.

> Having individual agents plan their own economic choices is much more efficient

There's a great deal of inefficiency in our current system as well, though.

I suppose I'm talking more about the "how much grain should we grow this year" sorts of questions that the Soviet Union failed at. It's almost certainly impossible with early 20th century tech, but with modern computing it seems like it might be more efficient to solve by one party with great resources, rather than by many parties with more primitive predictive tools.

When it comes to the discussion at hand, transportation infrastructure is one of the few areas that's inarguably more efficient when centrally conducted, which is why our roads and subways are government-operated, and why the airlines have an insatiable desire to consolidate.

> estimates of lead's harm seem to be rising even as exposure decreases, which should make people stop and think more

Is the effect size or confidence rising? The latter makes sense. We're moving from a population systematically exposed to lead (no control) to one with lead-free kids for a change.

For me, it's substantially better.

The results are good by default. But you can change the ranking of sites in your results, so every search is custom to you.

I pin documentation sites like MDN and pkg.go.dev and penalize SEO span sites.

My results are custom to me and my workflows, it's pretty hard to go back at this point.

Kagi is one of the stickiest subscription services I have.
> I am confused by the "younger" denotation, because it seems strangely specific to just the last relationship, rather than all of the links.

In many cultures you address someone differently depending on whether they are younger or older than you.

> This enum could have been replaced with data model where you set of a bunch of relationship links:

How is that going to look on the user side? Most people just want to label their contact "Mom" and be done with it, they don't want to construct a family tree and say "this person is an older female parent" or maybe even "older elder female parent" if they have two moms.

You might think "well Mom is clearly an exception" but that's a very North America point of view. A lot of cultures would find it weird if you could label someone as 어머니 but not 장모 because they're equally important.
That's awesome that it's so flexible. Can you search using symbols? Like if I'm trying to search "what is %" will it bring back results regarding the percentage sign, or results that start with the words "what is"?

That's my major problem with google. Sometimes I need to search info on a symbol, and I don't know what it's called yet, so I have to perform another search, just to perform the one I actually care about.
You’re saying that Google knew about the bug and purposely dropped security support for the pixel 4a right before? Support didn’t age out, like it typically does (age of device)? Google just pulled security support for this one device?

> The JS ecosystem just suffers disproportionately from this kind of thing because so many packages in npm are written by relatively new developers.

I think it also suffers because it grew in the age of Internet and Open Source, which made the problem compounding. Programmers write a lot of stupid code when learning, it's part of the process - but it used to be that the stupidity was constrained to your machine and maybe a few poor souls who ended up reading or using your code. In JS ecosystem, all that stupidity gets published, and ends up worming its way, through dependency chains, into everything.
The separate page on punctuation is interesting. They recommend against using curly apostrophes, although they do not give a rationale for this choice.

That page doesn’t follow its own advice. It recommends against contracting “you have”, but goes on to do so later in the page. Contradictions are always a bit funny on a style guide because of the imperative voice.
Hot water heating is where it is allowed. Some houses have hot water heating which should never touch tap water and so lead won't be a problem (well it might be to plumbers working on it).

Lead is an amazing material, too bad it is toxic, because from a materials stand point it is very useful to put a little into many different metals to useful properties.
Why is yelp doing this? I always thought that they forced some amount of pay to play on businesses that participate in their service.
Lol, and here is the whacko in the wild.
All operations related to a single document are ACID. MongoDB supports multi-document transactions, but with higher performance cost. https://www.mongodb.com/docs/manual/core/transactions/
Stainless steel could easily contain quite some ppm of lead. Metals are frequently recycled, and hard to separate.

Glass could also contain lead in contaminants - but actual metallic lead won't end up in the finished product - but lead oxides might well.

Having said that... There are probably many devices in your house or supply chain which deliberately contain lead in double digit percentages. Worry about those before worrying about contamination.
Multiple ports have been supported for more than 20 years.
I've been hiring devs at multiple companies.

It seems you are misunderstanding me again, If someone puts something on resume. It's a signalling they think it's important. And in order asses candidates on their strengths, we use the resume.

If you are worried that they are missing the information from the course, I gave how it's actually great tool to asses candidate.

You also thinking that can outsource in some sense if developer will workout at the work place you are hiring for. This is a mistake.

Instead of making blanket statements, and dismissing people on frivolous things. Like going to ivy league universities or having certificate.

It's better to test the person, to get the know more about the strengths and weaknesses.

A resume is just window into the candidate thinking process.

It's clear from your comments you're not aware of the great work at Harvard with CS50 course.
Wow. How does one develop an iron deficiency in America? Bread and breakfast cereals are fortified with it and it's in multivitamins, eggs, pasta, most meats, and even some chocolate. I get spinach and peas aren't for everyone, but how does one end up with a deficiency in iron when it's added to the trashiest of food?

(We shit on it now, but maybe this is why the "food pyramid" was shaped so contrary to current sensibilities? Or maybe it's a potassium deficiency mislabeled as something else.)
The real power is that with datasette you can instantly turn that SQLite DB into a full fledged responsive web app with arbitrarily complex filtering and sorting, which all gets serialized to the URL so you can share it and bookmark it for future use.
> it is nearly impossible to command innovation

Excellent point.
> You can add lines of code which use a more efficient algorithm.

Yes, so the burden of proof is on the algorithm. Adding more lines of code, by default, makes the code slower. If the algorithm is more efficient, it can make the code faster. But it must be more efficient.

This logic seems to hold up to me, but maybe I’m missing something here?
Those don’t seem like comparables though. Lead is just one (or arguably a handful of) compounds, while there are at least dozens of species of plastic.
I wonder if one can apply some heat to the cable or wire dropping you down, and thus create a more open conduit.
Broke AF people are still buying ridiculously expensive new trucks, I don't think this will be as much of a problem as you are thinking. Also, some EVs can be downright cheap if you qualify for incentives. It was theoretically possible to get a Bolt for like $3000 after government incentives in certain states before Chevy stopped making them.

hmmm... if port NNNN got through, maybe it went to something already listening on NNNN? but an iptables redirect could fix that.

just idle speculation.

I'm pretty sure "Port" worked with older ssh servers, maybe. openssh was only 4 years old 20 years ago.

I feel like the blink tag part of the story dates it to before 2011. (I just tested to see if blink tags still worked. It did not.)
> This becomes even more dangerous as we're entering the world of LLMs generating SQL[1]

I am beginning to push back against the idea of LLMs authoring SQL. Determinism is really important for most realistic use cases. SQL is one of those "all or nothing" experiences. Pretty much the last thing you want to have a temperature/spiciness slider over.

Granted, if your use case is to simply memorize a handful of canonical queries and to provide a UX-friendly way for business administrators to retrieve these queries, then have at it.

But, if you are hoping to ask the LLM to write novel, sophisticated, domain-specific queries involving joins across 10+ tables, aggregations, recursion, windowing, etc., you are going to have a very bad time. In my experience, this is what everyone is dreaming about doing, and I think it is an unproductive fantasy at this point. Fine tuning will not give you what you seek, but don't let me stop you from trying. We burned over 200 hours on it with nothing to show for our time.

For me, LLMs are far more interesting for determining the user's intentions than emitting a final query. Classification seems like the actual superpower here. Classification can feed a very powerful deterministic query building engine that will actually give you what you want and you can prove it will work. It just takes a lot more tedious work than most humans are willing to endure, so here we are talking about various shortcuts.

Like others noted in the thread about grandparents, in Scandinavia we'd say morbror (mother-brother) and farbror (father-brother).

What's fun though is that 'farbror' can also be used (in Swedish) for any neutral/kindly spirited or acquainted old man, so maybe we're not too practical after all.
This is a slightly above my pay grade, so take it with a bit salt.

Type systems in general reject some programs as invalid, but this claim is usually made with powerful type systems in mind; think Haskell, Idris, Rust. I only played with these casually, but it is true that you can write some code, and then let yourself be guided by compiler in fixing all the errors. It's often the case that the resulting program just works.

Rust's borrow checker is a part of its type system, based on some flavor of linear types if I remember correctly. Think about it: the type system can protect you from double frees. This is powerful.

In Haskell, for starters, you can't do any side effects outside of IO monad. You can express precisely what a given function is allowed to do.

In dependently-typed languages you can express that, for example, a function concatenating lists of length n and m returns a list of length n + m.

And aside from these above there is a lot of other, less magical things: no nulls, exhaustiveness checks for ADTs, some focus on immutability, lack of exceptions, and so on.

Now, I doubt we are all going to write Idris in five years, and even there bugs do happen obviously. But the idea compiles==works is not entirely out of this world.
It's far less profitable than the advertising model. Unfortunately, most tech companies are VC-backed and optimize for profits.

Why are there so many loopholes in every single US law?

Everytime there’s a major health issue or anything extremely anti consumer it’s because of a loophole in the formulation of a US law.

Are US lawmakers that bad? Or is it judges who interpret laws literally instead of using the intent?
