> How is asking for examples for a statement a "terrible comment"?

Demanding 10 examples is a terrible comment.
It communicates hostility and disbelief rather than curiosity.

> Please explain what exactly that change breaks.

https://github.com/golang/go/issues/60078 is where this is discussed.
Again, I _agree_ with this change, but I'm pointing out that it is a breaking change. rsc points out in the proposal that it is a breaking change.

> Such as? And yes, I am asking for examples. Because I have personally compiled and run code that was written in Go 1.8, with a modern compiler. And the only change I saw so far, is better performance.

I gave multiple examples already.
If you are truly interested I'm sure you can find more either in the go issue tracker or on google.
Do you mind sharing how you decided which 36 strains to include and what they are? Bonus points for links to studies (or articles with good references).

GIMP is a power user tool, like Photoshop, or Excel, or a Bloomberg terminal. If you don't need all that, Canva or the photo editor on your phone will offer a simpler UI.
I can reply because I was in the same situation at a younger age, at a time with no internet then limited internet.

Raw curiosity & having "just access to the required hardware" (a huge "just") and a bit of books & magazines can take you a long way.

My parents were not programmers but my father bought computers early on (1984), and later brought compilers at home (via his work), e.g. TurboPascal, C++, and let me experiment.

I learned mostly via magazines & books, and later a bit of exchanges with peers (demomaking), and also via buying disks (https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/DP_Tool_Club) that contained documentation (such as https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ralf_Brown%27s_Interrupt_List) and arrived via snail mail.

I "just" gradually iterated and coded small stuff, then gradually more complicated stuff (Windowing toolkit in CGA, a Tetris clone, a Bomberman clone, FFT software, and ultimately 3D realtime rendering without any FPU, only in software, with Phong rendering and such https://github.com/thbar/demomaking#obez-1995).

I was not an isolated case in the sense I ended up stumbling on other teenagers (via the demomaking world) who did exactly the same thing.

Today a curious kid can go probably much further, as long as curiosity is encouraged :-)
That isn't the point. There are lots of countries with high corporate income taxes on the domestic level.

By the way, the consumer only ends up paying the tax if the taxed corporate income is necessary for a future investment or production process. If the corporate income is paid out to owners and investors then the consumer carries none of the cost.

The point is that all countries should equalize their tax rates so that the differences between tax optimized international companies and unoptimized local companies shrinks.
Does this man ever worked with photoshop? What is he talking about? Of course there is a menu, just like in PS. Of course it is overwhelming at first. The biggest reasont most of the UI/UX sucks, because those who create the program never actually use it day by day. So easy. Use your own program and whenever you get frustrated it shows you that you have done something wrong or awkward and it needs adjustment. Another important thing is to drop the "this must look and feel different than photoshop" stance (more vs less) and it will be a-ok. And don't be afraid to borrow things from the bigheaded ones if that works well.

Krita and Gimp's biggest issue is that most of the tools are implemented in a non intuitive way. Everything is a disorganized mess. And since PS doesn't run under linux, this gets on my nerves.

For example in Krita you can't resize a crop rectangle with the mouse that holds its aspect ratio... WHYYY? And why does the crop tool forgets the previous size values? Little things like these show that the creators NEVER EVER use their own fucking program.
Just a heads-up, it looks like your account might have been shadowbanned? You last few comments were all dead, as well as this one when I first saw it. Looks like someone else may have already vouched for it though.

They were allowed to defer payments, placing those at the end of the “queue” of payments. Then the program was cancelled before the extended terms of the loans.

> In October 2022, the Department of Veterans Affairs ended the so-called Partial Claim Payment program, or PCP, that enabled homeowners to do that. This happened even though the mortgage industry, housing advocates and veterans groups all warned the VA not to end the program, saying thousands of homeowners needed to catch up on missed payments. Interest rates had risen so much that many couldn't afford to refinance or get back on track any other way.
Oh yes, I can't wait to see what comes of that.
> Vulkan unlike OpenGL is also quite new.

Vulkan is 7 years old by now. That's the same time span between Direct3D1 (1995) and Direct3D9 (2002).

Wayland is 15 years old now btw.

7 and 15 years should be more than enough time to create stable and robust software libraries.

> The Germans never spoke German, even afaict in one-to-one conversations

This is fairly standard etiquette everywhere I've been in Central and Northern Europe.

The general idea is that it would be rude to have a one on one _next_ to you in a language that you might not understand.

Also in general I think people that only speak one language always assume other people are bad mouthing when usually people are just talking about random trivialities or some work/life problems. So it's always safer to keep everything in English.
There's no mention of the issue being keyboard-specific nor patches or comments from mclassen in the issue you linked. Maybe you linked the wrong one?

Looks like a canonical file path (as opposed to dir path) paste handling bug in general, which seems like something worth fixing regardless of one's stance on keyboard paste.

It’s the opposite. Computer literacy has gone down for gen Z, iOS and Android are too simple and locked down.

So this is very impressive at that age.
"Leaders command people". No, real leaders don't. Those with a military background that have been in situations where shit was all over the fan will agree.
Thanks!

What are the limits that DockerHub has, which are much worse than GHCR's limits for public images? (I'm genuinely curious.)

Also, it doesn't seem to be quite as simple to switch to as just prefixing ghcr.io. The default when you do that switch is to create private images (which cost and are not public), so you have to figure out everything related to making the images public, which possibly involves changing Dockerfiles to link the image to a public project, or other options.

I think Archive doesn’t work with Apple’s private relay browsing feature due to them using Cloudflare for that capability, although I have not had time to test. Absolutely know it doesn’t work when using Cloudflare public DNS servers though.
I don't know anybody who uses Signal and isn't a programmer (on the cryptography/security side) or journalist that needs it in order to work. Anybody else uses Telegram, WhatsApp, or both. SMS if you're in the USA.
It's cool to do research and put some hard data and numbers behind common sense. But I feel like there's this weird phenomenon going on where people are pretending this is new information. I'm in my 40s, and I remember hearing about controlled burns when I was a little kid: I was told that we tried to stop all forest fires, but this had the unintended affect of making wildfires more common and harder to control in the end. This was at least 35 years ago, and common enough that a non-scientist (my dad) would tell it to a little kid. Lately I've been hearing it like it's some kind of new discovery.
I've been addicted to Nicotine lozenges for nearly 10 years now, and have tried to stop multiple times over the past 2. The withdrawal effects are horrific, and I'm pretty much unable to function for a week and have brain fog for a further 3 weeks. Does anyone know if there is something that would counteract the withdrawal effects? My doctor unfortunately just keeps handing me stop smoking leaflets.
id assume for AIs to both be safe full and useful, they need to start with an ontology.

of course, once that's boostraped, then potentially they could make derivative and novel ontologies.
> Watermarking is useless in a world where (F)OSS or unregulated LLMs are as good as regulated ones.

But wouldn't watermarking work for identifying and maintaining the integrity with respect to the source of images and videos? Note, though, that you can't watermark plain ASCII.

I agree; trust is the real issue.

Because parent is taking about operators like "+" and how it can be confusing not knowing if a function call is behind it. This is different from obvious functions like "Add()".
Well I mean, I think I donate like $20 a month to Gnome, ... or is that KDE... Both? I'll have to look. But anyway yeah that's about all I can do is donate and try to be there to help where I can. I can also do documentation and proofreading.
It's hard to say because of the compute requirements. Over time, local models will become much more efficient and "good enough" for most use cases.

But for a time, boundaries will be pushed that require more compute and they may be a good service to provide that. The hardware is so expensive I imagine their margins can't be very good though. I'd be interested to see their business plan, because the current version of OpenAI in terms of what it offers doesn't seem to be that compelling when extrapolated out 5 years without some other innovative products.

I honestly think Apple will dominate the personal AI angle once they get there. What's left is business and that will be more competitive.

You can't tax on revenue because that would result in taxing the same revenue multiple times. You would have to tax added value instead.

His ideas of Aryan supremacy fed into his ego-drive for a 'superior race' as his legacy. It is our ego that strives to leave a legacy, and when this ego tramples on or disregards the legacy of others, it is egocentric.

> if the immortals actually made life shitter for everyone else, you can assume they would be French Revolution'd without too much overture.

The most proximate cause of the French Revolution was a tax on the aristocratic classes, and increased taxes in general, quite similar to the American Revolution: https://www.britannica.com/event/French-Revolution

Another cause was shared with the Russian Revolution: Gradually increasing rights for the hoi polloi that made them acutely aware of the unjustness of the constraints that still existed.

The aristocrats provided the wealth, and the hoi polloi provided the numbers. But in an immortality scenario the aristocrats are being given a privilege, not taxed against it. Or if this immortality is available to all, then the old immortals may outnumber the youth.

In the case of France, an emperor replaced a king. In the case of Russia, a dictator replaced a czar. In the US the previously existing legislatures continued ruling, but without oversight.
Did you read the first paragraph after you wrote it? If you did, and then posted it anyway, I don’t really know what to say. But, in any case, “Computing literacy” != “wrote a debugger.”

Your post comes off more delusional (or just ignorant) than the OP ever came off as self-promotional.

A panic stop is mostly a question of speed not the cars performance.

This means a speeding Porsche has worse handling than a Tahoe driven reasonably. Which is what this study uncovers, performance cars don’t offset reckless behavior.

Hi Crisa!

Your site looks good, but it's a bit quiet. A huge part of the appeal of HN is the high quality people making high quality contents. It's very hard to launch a site like this from a cold start. HN was able to do it because it was an extension of the YC incubator.

Unfortunately, a lot of folks are going to think "isn't Hacker News the newsboard for AI and robotics?"

There is a not small amount of truth to that. Sometimes writing the code is the easy part.
If the movie earned $5 million they'd still get to write off $25 million, for $10 million instead of $6 million. There could be other complex subsidies involved and stuff though.

A deque is a doubly-linked list under the hood.
I think that’s right. Every time I go look at it I just marvel at how awful it is, like an alien designing photo editing software by looking at some screen shots and feature lists but never editing a single image.

Compare with Affinity’s software - they are more consistent than present day Adobe but copied all the good, same as Adobe did with Quantel.
For all the drawbacks of the USA, today it's the best place on Earth to build projects like SpaceX, period. That's the main reason to stay.

Notably the founding father of Chinese space industry worked under von Karman in Caltech and left the USA in disappointment. However that was just one scientist in a rather different time. Today, neither Europe, nor China, nor Russia, nor India or Japan offer opportunities to develop things similar to SpaceX; I'd be quite interested in Chinese development, but would still bet against them.
Amazing. That great counter intellegence work. If China buys it and learn from Boeing space division its gone nuke their whole program.

This is my write up and this is a free link to a paywall article so I can earn income. The personal expense monies and time are significant. However, spending appropriately and actually trying to participate in Good Faith takes commitment. I spent time, I spent money, I was consistent. Not a single unsolicited photo unlike Brett Farve of others.

I actually paid for reviews - it’s a thing - and have an overall positive impression of the potential and longevity of OnlyFans. I do want it to succeed and I think it is healthy for lots of humans.

What exciting classified bits were you expecting? Outside of signing keys, I would expect the vast majority of classified documentation is boring technical specs for the N millions of parts required to assemble military gear. Each valuable in their own right, but knowing the exact dimensions and composition of the inanimate carbon rod is not going to move hearts and minds.

Juiciest potential bit is always going to be emails so you can see the human component of what people really think.

How is “Add()” any different from “+”? They're just two different names for the same thing – a function that adds two numbers or other objects.
Just in case author happens to read comments:
There's this sudden brick wall of understandability in the "Interaction Hints" section. It's not clear what the visual hints are in the screenshot because there's a number of UI elements present. And "obviously" is carrying too much load, you'd have to be be familiar with Blender to know.

I have no trouble understanding the concepts, its the nomenclature that is different. It is the same with Haskell or other niche languages - once you are familiar with the terminology then you start to feel comfortable.

However, I just consider some things in the world outside of Elixir/Erlang/BEAM to be a bit more common. For example, using Docker with Kubernetes/ECS/etc as a deployment story. Or connecting micro-services using REST/gRPC/GraphQL. Or using queue systems like SQS or Kafka (to be fair, literally yesterday an ElixirConf talk about using Kafka with Elixir was posted). The advantage of BEAM is that you can avoid that stuff in some cases because it is built in to the platform - but that is a double edged sword since now you aren't doing those things.

Even if I have used Akka for Actors in Scala/Java/Kotlin, something about the BEAM based languages still feels like I am stepping onto the Galapagos Islands and seeing a ecosystem that has been evolving in its own isolation for decades. Sure, there are birds, but they just don't look like any birds I've seen before.
I have a playlist with 285 videos, and youtube just says "Unavailable videos are hidden".

It's the worst, I have no idea what is missing. I don't even know how much is missing and I am sure the number will keep increasing over time, not even sure they will bother to tell me that there are missing videos at this rate.
Awesome! It might be boring for you, but accompanying that project with a "Let's write a debugger" tutorial would be very useful.
That's really not common, the French versions are André for a man and Andrée for a woman (same pronunciation).
Yeah I agree with you. But I have to start somewhere. I thought I would launch this site and learn everything I can from it. Including how to grow it organically. Even if its a failure, I will still know a little more than I did before.

But I realize what you say is true, after all I have pretty much copied HackerNews to the best of my ability, so I'm assuming users will think to themselves, why not just stick to the original HackerNews?
It's really not a surprise, France has always been a leader in AI research and quality of education

A short personal story: While trying to understand special relativity from books, and failing to, I tried doing maths myself based on whatever I had understood till then. I ended up doing what this paper has mentioned. I was surprised. For the next twelve years, I was asking various physicists I knew about what was I doing wrong, however none could give me the time needed. I then saw basically the same proof appear on Wikipedia, so finally had the answer.

Einstein's original paper on special relativity, while mentioning the two famous postulates, also later assumes linearity of the transformations (allowing non-linear takes it from special relativity to general relativity). However, the paper did not explicitly call it out as a postulate. Also, Einstein derived a particular equation in the paper from two paths and mentions that there's consistency. This was actually a missed opportunity -- He could have forced consistency as an input assumption, worked backwards, and would then have seen that invariant speed is not needed as an input assumption anymore.

With this OP submission, I have now learnt that this has been known for more than a century now, and agree that this should be more popular in books.

IIRC a bunch of them didn't even just go monochrome, they removed small hints to what it actually did (like little arrows that showed what the transformation actually was). Switching back to the old icons was also the first thing I did.
Since we're all being frank and sharing our two cents.. The people who criticize Linux aesthetics often come across as insufferable snobs who are obsessed with small details and have a hard time acknowledging the subjectivity of their personal preferences. If they spent half as much time configuring KDE/etc as they did complaining, then they'd soon have a system that aligns with their preferences.
Would that be truly ironic, or logical? People make decisions on the margin, rising insurance rates seem a fairly humane way to incentivize people moving out of dry rural wooded locations.

Folks that really don’t want to move can pay the elevated public backstop options or if their house is paid off, run the risk of total loss. The longer people wait to leave the worse off they will come out because their property values will go to zero. I’d be in favor of public funding to help people relocate.

If we get through it all, recreation and tourism can bounce back with lightweight infrastructure that doesn’t need to be defended, and some better engineered permanent infrastructure.
