The original comment that I addressed was (paraphrased) "Republican voters are half the country".

I looked only at Presidental elections which have the greatest turnout, these have rarely seen a 50% Republican showing in total active votes in recent decades.

Including the mid term elections we see even lower voter engagement which helps the Republican showing in active votes, sure.

However of all the people that could vote in the US (those eligable), or even of just those people that indicate they'd probably vote (registered), it's still the case that well short of half the country votes Republican.

That the same can be said of US Democrats (although they generally in recent decades have had the edge in total active votes) - but it still remains that well short of "hal the the country" supports the Republican platform - they don't have a popular mandate.
There are now destroyers, frigates and aircraft carries that do the same job more efficiently.

I can't really say how we now have a better rocket that can send people to the Moon.
You're assuming the nervous stressed candidate can read your mind? That's not going to yield the best candidates. It's going to yield the candidates who are best "tuned" for the process.

I've already explained simple and obvious scenarios where the context can impact the candidates in sub-optimal ways.

If someone says, "Solve this" and the canidate attempts to do so, but that's not what was really expected? That's trickery (and foolish). On the other hand, if the interviewer wants, "Here's a problem, let's discuss..." then *that* is what the interviewer should lead with.
> The BBC seems to be up in arms about substitution

They are not. They inform the reader that this system exists. Then little cherry on the cake, this system eventually leads to child labor. Plus chocolate toping, eventually someone died.
Two incomes. One kid and one on the way. My wife and I can fully devote ourselves to our hobbies and interests without shame or judgement. Pretty similar to above, no?

Never understood this shame and judgement. Can you explain a little more?

I don't find kids/parenting exhausting at all. They actually give me power to do more, to do better for them, my wife and myself.
So, 10-30 million all up per election cycle, chump change for many venture investors for example.

>Now, you could claim, though not particularly credibly, that money spent on PACs is not lobbying money.

There are PACs and then there's AIPAC with a 70M/year budget.
> My sense is that the doomers in software these days are either inexperienced and lack perspective from industry shifts over the years or weren't very good to begin with and could not build beyond basic crud and data shipping applications of varying complexity.

My experience rather is that such people often (though not always) are quite good programmers, but came to a different conclusion on how it makes sense to develop software than the direction which the industry shifted to (and often have good, though sometimes non-mainstream reasons for their opinions). Thus, despite being good programmers, "they fell out fashion" with "how you are (by today's fashion/hype) supposed to build software on this current day". So, they became more and more hard to employ and thus more and more frustrated (just to be clear: in my experience they are often quite right in their opinions).
I'm not sure what the point is in your comparison - is your point that GPT-4 will become overwhelmingly popular with further refinement?

The iPhone was pretty successful, and the iPhone 4 was arguably the best one that had been released until that point.
Not terribly different than Google Translate.

Ff you have a familiarity with the foreign language, you can cross check yourself & the tool against each other to get to a more competent output.

If you do not know the foreign language at all, the tool will produce word salad that sort of gets your point across while sounding like an alien.
Yes, demand grows as prices drop. I don't doubt this general principle for a second. But the question is about degrees. If the cost of making software at today's level of quality and quantity drops by half, what share of the savings is going to be spent on more and better software, what share is going to be spent on other things and what share will be used to cut prices?

I think there is no general answer to this question. What would Netflix do if software development costs dropped by half? Develop twice as much software? Spend it on more content? Cut the price of subscriptions? In this specific case, my bet would be on content.
Debian developers go through a long step-by-step process to get in that position. Volunteering as a package maintainer first, getting Debian dev to advocate for you, cross-checking people passports, doing interview/exams to become a DD.

DDs review the libraries they package. All uploads are personally signed to keep people accountable.

Instead opening a github account and developing a library can be done anonymously and there's been supply chain attacks done this way.
I don’t even know where to being.

All I’ll say is that, justified or not, the PR apocalypse that will accompany the first incident to occur under this deregulation plant will be the end of the nuclear industry. The current opposition to nuclear will look like a bunch of YIMBYs in comparison.
How is it too late? Sounds like an opportunity for you.
This isn't a new idea; Ferrari has been doing this for a "while".
I'm guessing this restriction wouldn't hold up in most (state) courts.

Also, you would have to be a huge fanboy to accept a restriction like this. There's a reasonable chance that actual life with that truck might be less pleasant than imagined, and that selling it after a few months would be a reasonable desire (not just flipping it for $$$).

That said, I think the effective scalping that goes on these days with limited quantity items is lowest common denominator human behavior. So given that some truck sales will go to people who merely intend to flip it for a profit, I can understand the desire to try to restrict the resale.
Let's ban schools because they can be used by dictatorships to inoculate their propaganda?
Why banning it then? Don’t US/EU have power to force educational content and time limits? This “oh, all feeds are bad, we should think of maybe banning them all” will lead nowhere 100% of times. Feels like China absolutely doesn’t even have to do anything bad because the US don’t know what they want.
There's an objective difference between high corruption and low corruption countries though. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corruption_Perceptions_Index

Let's not pretend that a slick lobbyist hired by vested interests to talk to representatives with no money changing hands is comparable to the stuff that goes down in high corruption countries, where there's literally briefcases full of cash given to politicians.
Lobbying is likely easier in a polarised two-party system where you really only have to swing a few people on the edges to deadlock things. The European Parliament has 6 large parties (>50 seats), and they're not particularly cohesive, so cases where the pre-ordained decision can be swayed by getting to this six people would be much rarer.
It seems that there is a missed optimization where the order of moves after. Assuming that X always goes first for every board state you know who goes next and the path that you took to get there doesn't matter. So you don't have to store the full sequence of moves that lead to the state, just the state itself.
I'm pretty sure schedulers are just black magic and anyone who doesn't work directly with them is unqualified to make statements like these.
The world is being westernized thanks to the influence of western media and culture. So in that sense, it can seem like “westernization” and “modernity” are the same thing. But the Japanese and Taiwanese also wear western-style business suits, wear jeans, drink coffee, etc. We wouldn’t say that jeans are “modern” rather than being a western influence. Moreover, in other parts of the world you have a resurgent, fundamentalist Islam. In the 1950s, Egyptian women didn’t wear headscarves. Today, most do. That’s also “modern.”

Same-sex marriage also isn’t a good example to gauge whether a culture is socially permissive, because sexual orientation is biologically determined. The scientific fact of that has been critical in acceptance of that in the East: http://olivia.thechiongs.com/2015/03/28/a-purely-practical-v.... It’s more of a social accommodation for a biologically defined group, rather than permissiveness as to individual behavior. That makes it quite distinct from western liberal culture, which I think would say that it doesn’t make a difference whether it’s a choice or not.
> the parent tweet is clearly there

It is not clear how to navigate to the parent tweet. Take it up with the owner of the site, I guess.

I know who Tom Mueller is, and I've addressed why that doesn't make him impartial.

> Tom was already retired when he posted those tweets.

According to your Wikipedia link "he retired from SpaceX on November 30, 2020". One of those tweets is from 2019, so your claims are patently false.

> The Tesla Board of Directors did that, not Elon.

And who was the chairman of that board of directors? Please.

> It's dishonest to attribute the success of the Tesla Roadster, Model S/X, and Model 3 ramp-up, as well as Tesla's current achievements, to Eberhard and Tarpenning.

And I did nothing of the sort. I gave Musk credit for that. I'm only pointing out he wanted to be credited for something he wasn't.
Well surely if it's easy to find these basic questions, could you not share one example? Or quickly find a new one?

Your idea of very basic might not be my idea of very basic.
Lenovo will still usually honor it within that timeframe. All I had to do was ask nicely.
> Companies don't have the right to vote and should not be able to do an end-run around the electoral process with their money.

There's no difference between companies and people here; no one, spending their company's money or their own, should be able to influence solely through money. They only can because of corrupt state employees, who should be replaced.
That does not solve supply chain attacks.
> The list of things you can do is short.. Telecom, Telescopes looking down, tourism, space mining

The first three have provided quite a bit of launch demand. Nation funded human space flight has been in decline since Apollo but commercial launch demand has been grown significantly.

The last two have yet to be tapped but their combined potential have the ability to create unprecedentedly high levels of demand.
Nick, so you don't open-source only UI?
This is exactly as I expected it would end. We'll see this happen again, and again, and again.

Some politician gets the genius idea to have backdoors in encryption, initial support, then reality sets in and the plans are abandoned.

There is just no sensible way to implement this, therefore it's not going to happen.

This iteration did go a bit further than usual.
Honestly, I don't see the appeal. Most Eichlers have a more serene feel to them.

Interestingly, there are many more Eichlers (and lookalikes) than listed on the Wikipedia page. For example, there's a development in Woodland, CA (NorCal).
About a year ago I bought a Thinkpad for personal use after looking for a windows laptop (after a windows surface died). I thought I'd made the best choice after heavy research.

Earlier this year I got a Dell Latitude for work. Both laptops are comparable. But the Thinkpad plastic seems cheap an "bendy" while the Dell just seems higher quality. I had never bought dell before but loved the finish, and so far it's been good. A glad extra is that i was able to choose Ubuntu and save the Windows tax (as I use Linux as my daily work desktop)
> certain items measure differences between conservative and liberal positions on culture war issues

I strongly dislike the oversimplified left/right dichotomy. If your political views strictly adhere to either side, it suggests a lack of independent thought. I have very little interest in engaging with someone who can't appreciate alternative perspectives.
I get followed by a new fake account (~0 posts, thousands of follows, a dozen followers) every day. I haven't figured out what they are doing, but one guess is that someone is trying to hide their fake followers by making them fake followers of thousands of accounts.
> I honestly think we’re entering an age where a skilled entrepreneur will be able to run a $10M/year business all by themselves with AI assisted coding, design and marketing.

You forgot the accounting, taxation, legal and compliance stuff, which at least in Germany takes a huge amount of the entrepreneur's time. :-(
It's certainly not transparency.

I do agree, the real job would habe to deal with ambiguity. But this is the interview. The interviewee has a completely different mindset going in. "Playing games" to see how they respond...that's for the likes of the NSA, CIA, etc.

"We can't find good candidates"? Nah. Your hiring process sucks. Get a mirror.
Thanks. Sounds like living in one of the smaller member states is an advantage in this case, since it's probably less worth it to lobby there.
Safari 17 on Sonoma, with advanced tracking protections activated (also outside of Private Windows). I've tried with and without adblockers.

CoverYourTracks tells me I have strong browser protections but a unique fingerprint. In AmIUnique, I've a unique fingerprint too. I can see that Apple's claims to fingerprint-resistance are absolutely bogus, as the websites were able to list my fonts, plugins, etc., all things that should be protected against.

I'm disappointed.

I've tried all my other browsers and, in all of them, my fingerprint remains unique with plenty of information leaking.

The concern may be that there could be undiscovered vulnerabilities in the service and releasing the source before shutdown could make it easier for malicious actors to discover those vulnerabilities and compromise user data.
Perhaps by learning to use the YT API (seriously something that should take 2 hours max if you know how http works) you'll learn something from their design choices, or develop opinions on what makes a good API. And by learning a bit more python you'll get exposed to patterns you could use in your own language.
Not yet released. Will we have that for every major project now?
systemd-homed is built around the idea of portable users. You can dedicate an external SSD for your user and plug-n-play it in different machines. For a single machine it makes more sense to just dm-crypt the entire disk.
That is nothing, I am still using my lightweight ENIAC from 1951.
So far works perfectly and I only sometimes have to replace the power plant that runs it.
Doctors do get weekends in fancy hotels and subscriptions offered by big pharmas for sure: I've got friends who get those.
Think of the children! I mean, the buyers!
This doesn't seem unreasonable for a limited supply product, to prevent price scalping.

If you saw these terms for a console launch or graphics card launch, you wouldn't complain.

It's probably not enforceable, but the idea isn't crazy.

EDIT: I was referring to the resale clause. Just saw the remote deactivation point too, which really is awfully dystopian.
I have a 2014 MBP that was working fine (except for some screen defects that I did not get fixed before it was too late for the warranty)...

Until I left it in my basement for a few weeks, i.e. in a slightly cold and humid environment.

Now, the keyboard is broken: I need to press multiple times on each key (it's better now that it has dried a bit, but not perfect).

The trackpad is also broken: only hard-clicking works.

Next step is to open and clean it up but I don't have much hope.
Requirement to "install dependencies locally" is part of the pain with C++ dep management. Not having to do it makes builds much easier to define, as you don't need to supports lots of distros and hope that everyone of them is up to date.
With the AI "revolution," I began to appreciate the simplicity of models we create when doing programming (and physics, biology, and so on as well).

I used to think about these things differently: I felt that because our models of reality are just models, they aren't really something humanity should be proud of that much. Nature is more messy than the models, but we develop them due to our limitations.

AI is a model, too, but of far greater complexity, able to describe reality/nature more closely than what we were able to achieve previously. But now I've begun to value these simple models not because they describe nature that well but because they impose themselves on nature. For example, law, being such a model, is imposed on reality by the state institutions. It doesn't describe the complexity of reality very well, but it makes people take roles in its model and act in a certain way. People now consider whether something is legal or not (instead of moral vs immoral), which can be more productive. In software, if I implement the exchange of information based on an algorithm like Paxos/Raft, I get provable guarantees compared to if I allowed LLMs to exchange information over the network directly.
"You don't just build a Saturn rocket and moonlander in your own factory (inhouse) one day. There is a massive supply chain"

You miss the point. They used those rockets multiple times to go to the Moon, it's not like it was "do once and forget" situation.

How could they simply forget things after doing it for so many times? You need extreme reliability and know-how to do those things consistantly over the span of a decade.

There must have been a knowledge transfer for such an important feet of engineering. If not, then the whole thing is not really believable. Sorry.
> Greater time spent on social networking websites led to higher psychological distress, an unmet need for mental health support, poor self-rated mental health, and increased suicidal ideation. In conclusion, greater time spent on online social networking promotes self-harm behavior and suicidal ideation in vulnerable adolescents.

> In September 2021, Bytedance announced it was making several changes to its algorithm and user interface in China, limiting children to just 40 minutes a day, introducing a Youth Mode for under 14s, and preventing the app being accessible to children between 10pm and 6am.

https://www.vintageisthenewold.com/game-pedia/how-long-can-k...

The astute reader will note that China has no such concerns for children outside of China, to the contrary, encouraging them to spend as much time on the app as possible.
Ironically, Starship has the same problem Shuttle has, basically limiting it on its own to LEO. The payload stage is too big and heavy.

The solution to get Starship and Shuttle beyond LEO is the same: either use up the fuel required for landing and expending the vehicle or orbital refueling.

The difference is that Starship is so cheap it makes both of those options feasible. Shuttle's reusability was supposed to make it cheap, but it ended up costing $1.5 billion per flight.
I just did a short search for the SLS test launches, but couldn't find anything. Is this SpaceX fail fast approach to test incrementally, and SLS was just launched the first time with payload, or did I just miss the test launches of that system?
Creators are people paid to shit in your head and maintain your attention that are acceptable because the platform considers their attention to be profitable.

The contract breaks if any conditions are not fulfilled or stop growing.
You would definitely pass if I interviewed you, as long as your solution was reasonably efficient.

I would love to interview a candidate that can show they can use command line tools effectively.
What is the test?
And I suspect you would be a lot less likely to be involved in a crash than someone who had just passed the test.
The difference with Ferrari is that if you're a real Ferrari buyer, you will want to be a valued customer so you can have a shot at buying another (new) Ferrari in the future. As there are more customers than cars, always now, Ferrari can be selective in who they sell to. And with exotic cars now being mostly appreciating assets, it really is a privilege to be able to buy one new.

Tesla is a very different story. While their new models are in higher demand than supply, they are not appreciating assets. And Tesla does not have a "great automotive history" as Ferrari does. It's quite possible that in 20 years, Tesla will be gone or on par with a typical car company in terms of brand value. There may be another hot electric mfg which produces the new models that people want. In fact, that is likely to be the case within 10 years.
Well, on the one hand of course you could argue that outsiders are less experienced with living in your country.

But outsiders have no emotional stakes in convincing themselves that your country is the best on earth. Consequently, I feel the non-US media are freer than US mass media to discuss the true state of American healthcare. Outsiders are less susceptible to your country's patriotic propaganda.

This does go both (or all) ways. The US are an example here, not a singular special case. Every country tries to convince its citizens that it's better than everywhere else.
So you are leasing

You just need to repeat the work for each linux distribution package manager, and then again for Windows, and then again Mac and iOS. Simples!
In spanish we say "bruja" (witch), as something similar to bitch.
I always thought HN is a slot machine. TikTok is HN on steroids. I uninstalled it years ago from all my devices. I stick to the drug that I think I can control.
