I cannot be convinced that a good parent would ever decide to put a camera in their child's room. All this talk of "training" and making sure they do no wrong is just people who view children as objects. Children are people and they do not deserve to be in prison. Furthermore they can't develop their mental skills properly if they know they have no privacy, they never take the opportunity to do things outside of what the parents dictate.

Having parents like this is torture, and I'm not exaggerating. I'm almost 30 and I still get scared when someone walks near the bathroom door or near my bedroom. I still pretend to be doing something else when someone is coming. I still refuse to use a cell phone (I think this one's rational actually). I still won't get naked in my own room. I still feel the need to walk lightly to avoid anyone knowing where I am. It feels like they're still watching me at all times. Sometimes I wonder if they ever had anything at all, if they just did a good job of brainwashing me to be afraid all the time. I wonder, now, if they they think all the bullshit was worth it for their precious public image?

Every justification parents use for being invasive overbearing fusspots sounds like it was taken directly from the North Korean Dictator Handbook. "Without rules there would be no order". Fuck order. Just another word for "do whatever I say". It's tyranny. Those people don't deserve to have children, and every bit of resistance their children give them is completely justified.
Show HN: My Uber Eats Unwrapped 2023
The continuation is only invoked once when a blocking operation completes so the print(5) would only be run once.
That's a pretty high bar, no?
Not necessarily. Money keeps you in the game. Giving it all away means you are at the bottom being not that effective. And you can donate money in your will.

This shows you what Linux could be if it were redesigned from scratch without layers of patches/fixes. Nice, simple, and due to dynamically mounted read only package system, read-only actually means read only.
Correct. If you look at the block diagram of the AD9084 (from the article link), it has on-chip DUC (Digital Up Converter) and DDC (Digital Down Converter) blocks.

Thanks, weird that HN doesn’t showed me the already submitted link.
Just install the old editor plugin and you’ll have the WP interface you were expecting.
It's fast indeed. And I can't help keeping promoting the combination with fzf :) For those who want to try it out, this is a Powershell function but the same principle applies in any shell. Does ripgrep then puts fuzzy searching in the resulting files+text on top while showing context in bat:

function frg {
$result = rg --ignore-case --color=always --line-number --no-heading @Args |
fzf --ansi `
--color 'hl:-1:underline,hl+:-1:underline:reverse' `
--delimiter ':' `
--preview "bat --color=always {1} --theme='Solarized (light)' --highlight-line {2}" `
--preview-window 'up,60%,border-bottom,+{2}+3/3,~3'
if ($result) {
& ($env:EDITOR).Trim("`"'") $result.Split(': ')[0]
}
}

There are other ways to approach this, but for me this is a very fast way of nailing down 'I now something exists in this multi-repo project but don't know where exactly nor the exact name'

The first amendment prevents censorship, by the US government, of the press or individual speech. It doesn't prevent an individual or legal person from suing over something written or said in public about them.

What would stop the Atlantic from "getting sued into oblivion" is that the person that the article was about (Nixon) was dead when it was written, and the dead can't be defamed.
In OpenZFS and Btrfs, everyone was just guessing
Yeah, I get that people have different thoughts and priorities on what is luxurious to them. That makes sense. I'm not really a car person since I grew up needing one for 30 years in LA finding parking multiple times a day. I just wouldn't make too many assumptions about how things work over here. Not sure why there is an assumption that I live in a small apartment. Big houses are also cheap in the suburbs over here :) You should visit sometime!
Your argument boils down to assuming there is true randomness in the universe. You need hardware level rng with a natural source of entropy to generate non-predictable random numbers, but even then you're just at the point where maybe we could predict the randomness if we could go low enough.

We can't, so at the moment it looks as though the universe might have true randomness (I'm very sceptical of this).

But even then, so what? Does that mean free will is just decisions with some true universal randomness thrown in? How does that give you free will if it is just random? And then we're back to, what does free will even mean.
Can generalist foundation models beat special-purpose tuning?
This is random but I was recently rejected for a role from a company I find very interesting - https://www.overstory.com/ - and when I asked, the engineering manager gave me clear, detailed feedback on why (I don't have experience with satellite imagery tools like STAC, I accessed dict members with x['a'] instead of x.get('a', {}), and I didn't go in to depth on my takehome assignment.).

I really appreciate it and mention them since it's rare to get such helpful feedback. Though admittedly I think their takehome time estimate was optimistic. When I was at Auth0 we started checking the commit logs on candidate repos and it was clear that people were spending MUCH longer than we were asking on takehome exercises.
This matches your requirements:

> Why take care of one person? In sum, it does not pay off.

That assessment is extremely short-sighted. The reason it will pay off is because other employees will see how you treat the one person. If they see you give someone who is struggling needed support, they will know that in the future, they might get that as well. Having a stable environment full of people who trust each other will pay off far more in the future.

> Also there are processes to be met officially

By "officially" do you mean legally? Because it sounds to me that a good faith law was met with a bad faith effort by that company. It wastes a candidates time, and gives false hope, while applying to the letter of the law without actually following the spirit of it. Which actually feeds into the broken legal culture of the PIPs. It also wastes HRs time, playing to make the government happy while ignoring potential workplace problems they could be addressing.
If this was an Alpha software that was created a few months ago and is rapidly changing then sure, link back to the original.

But we’re talking about curl here. MS could have an intern copy paste the curl document, delete the stuff that doesn’t apply to XCurl, and host it on a shared OneDrive Word document all within a day, and it would be orders of magnitude a significantly better experience.

Instead curl maintainers will end up spending man years supporting XCurl issues instead.
How is that dangerous to humanity?
This is absolutely not true in Europe, unless you're talking UK or a subject of an US company.
But is any of them using `_mm256_sad_epu8` for small, literal strings?
Pretty much like clockwork when the company I'm at gets large enough to have an HR "department" that does more than process payroll, I'm making calls and doing interviews. It's never worth it. When the headcount gets over Dunbar's number I don't have a place there.
Kotlin multiplatform
Source? (I haven’t been able to find the first use of the term)

My understanding is the term came into use because it was common for unlicensed sellers to set up tables at gun shows. The law isnt about gun shows specifically, but gun shows were a common way for unlicensed sellers and buyers seeking to avoid background checks to do business.
Common everywhere unions are weak.
99% no tech people just plug in what they get from ISPs, especially fiber where you also get IPTV plan over WiFi/fiber too.
It’s like zipper merging in a car.

A gun won't save you from the stupidity of bad drivers. And you understand (in your anger) that it won't solve anything. At best (not really) you shoot and kill (?) one of them. You will then go to prison for many-many-many years, you will lose everything and everyone.

Meanwhile there is a million equally bad drivers out there. We can't be doing "a purge" every weekend. It's either policing, or self-driving cars. I am looking forward to the latter.
> What is wrong with people taking money?

Is the wrong question to ask.

Money is a means to facilitate self-organisation in the economy — it's not a good in itself, only as a means to an end.

For the most part, people are happy to not look too closely and just assume it's all good, but the entire point of regulators such as the Competition Markets Authority is to find the cases where a trade isn't good for the wider economy.
It continues to surprise me that Principia Mathematica (PM) still gets mentioned so regularly in discussions related to computer science topics. As far as I can tell, PM was one of the least influential works in any branch of mathematics or logic or philosophy or computer science. It is must be one of the least-read books (3 volumes, 1994 pages) ever written. PM's sole claim to fame is that it was mentioned in Kurt Goedel's famous paper "Ueber formal unentscheidbare Saetze der Principia Mathematica und verwandter Systeme I". The emphasis strongly is on "verwandter Systeme" - related systems, of which PM is just one example.
Hows everyone finding Azure? I’m an Azure bread and butter user but I am sure people mostly on AWS are having fun with Azures CLIs APIs Portal etc. because it is going to be a lot different and unfamiliar. Also egress/ingress costs although mostly the AI costs would far exceed that anyway.
> In case of GPT-4 or any other LLM, it's merely "immoral output" - i.e. text. It does not harm anyone by itself.

Assuming that you're not running this query over an API and relaying these answers to another control system or a gullible operator.

An aircraft control computer or reactor controller won't run my commands regardless of its actuators connected or not. Same for weapon systems.

Hall pass given to AI systems just because they're outputting text to a screen is staggering. Nothing prevents me to process this output automatically and actuate things.

What's an alternative with same functionalities for both devs + designers?
Yes it's true for Europe. (big) companies' HR just ghost you or reject you with the same legally safe cookie cutter template messages. Maybe at very small companies if you only interacted with the hiring manager he might have the time and inclination to give you some personalized feedback but that's very rare.

No, not UK, just Austrian companies in Austria for example. Swedish companies in Sweden. Also German companies in Germany. In Eastern Europe too. Is that enough of a sample size for my opinion on European companies?
Large companies just stagnant hiring in one region or another to offset risk. I’ve seen companies hire like crazy in places like the US and India but the same people have been working in the UK/EU for decade(s) without any new hires.

UK/EU companies will do the same and recoup costs by laying off regions like US/India because it’s easier.

You can easily avoid these kinds of companies who are always hiring and firing. I’ve never had to deal with a threat of a PIP.
I worked there for 8 years (both retail and AWS) and loved it and never experienced a toxic environment. Consider that the anecdotes that are published by the media may not be representative of everyone's experiences.
would you mind me asking what motivates you to write as much as you have? just writing one book is bucket list item for me, yet here you've written >= 13! do you write for an audience or is it perhaps primarily to consolidate your thoughts?

git grep cannot even find a simple string in its repo.
I fully agree. Just want to point out that all of this is because of lawsuits. When companies were more transparent they were sued, so they became less transparent.
Wildly annoying that this isn't called 'Brickursion'.
I don't know about "spending a lifetime", but I was fascinated by Transport Tycoon Deluxe as a kid and remember playing it once even as an adult. Besides this, I enjoyed the Grand Theft Auto series, Football Manager, and The Sims. These days, I don't play at all despite having a PS4 lying dormant. I'm not sure why, but if I had to pinpoint an exact reason, perhaps it's the feeling that I'd be losing out on the chance to spend that time improving myself.
complementary openbsd resource:

some differences:

* openbsd does not use a /boot/ partition. instead it uses the bsd.* files in root.

* no /proc/ in its entirety in openbsd. use sysctl(3) instead.

* current openbsd does not have a separate /var/tmp/; it is a symbolic link to /tmp/.

> in my experience they are becoming necessary modern safety features

EU recently mandated that all new models have Intelligent Speed Assistance[1].

This requires the car to use GPS, read signs and such to determine the current speed limit, and provide some feedback like a dynamic force on the gas pedal[2].

I got this in my new car, being a model introduced last year, and while it's nice when it works, it's often confused or wrong. And that's when it's operating normally. I already had to replace the gas pedal unit because the force feedback mechanism in it had some issues (would tap the pedal like a light hammer strike at a specific position, repeated around 5 Hz if held at the exact position). Wonder how it'll all hold up down the line.

In his ruthlessness towards dogmatic ends without any consideration of humanism.
The story went something like, the guys building UNIX got a second hard drive, so they moved the home directories (/usr) to it. As the system grew, they started dropping more binaries into /usr/bin (while trying to keep /bin for things needed to boot/rescue the system, in case the disk with /usr failed). The rest is history.
They also host more or less the entire PC gaming market.
I once had a kind, capable and hard-working boss, who hinted that a few years previously he'd been on a PIP due to being out of his depth in the role, and had managed to claw his way out of it. While I was in his team, he got a, IMHO, well deserved promotion. To my mind, the company basically mistreated him, made him wait years longer than he should to get the promotion. The reason he probably couldn't was lack of formal academic qualifications to job hop with, and possibly risk averse because his wife had walked out and left him with 2 kids. Its seems to me in this case, a bunch of game-playing which helps nobody. Also other people will have noticed how this guy was treated, and responded with the amount of "loyalty" that that employer deserved back.
I also believe that the 'zip' name hurts intuition by favoring `zip(long_list1, long_list2)`, when `zip(*pairs)` is just as useful.

From a mathematical viewpoint, 'zip' is just transpose, and therefore its own inverse. But because of the zipping metaphor, this feels perfectly normal:

pairs = zip(sources, destinations)

While this feels like black magic:

sources, destinations = zip(*pairs)

If Sam get’s fired I am moving to a HN clone with filters so I can ignore anything related to AI
Because now, see, you need an army of very expensive lawyers to very carefully analyze the changes to determine if you can still be using the thing. The answer is always tricky, boils down to “it depends, now pls give us more of those sweet hourly fees and your own project description in detail so we may determine if maybe probably it’s ok in your particular case. Not guaranteed, of course, gotta have a court case to guarantee anything.”

So legally tricky, much legal busywork. Very courageous.

Everything you say does make sense, except those people who able to get equipment to produce those chemicals and have funding to do something like that - they dont really need AI help here. There are plenty dangerous chemicals already well known to humanity and some dont actually take anything regulated to produce "except" complicated and expensive lab equipment.

Again difficulty of production of poisons and chemicals it's not what prevent mass murdering around the globe.
There is actually a Chinese solution to this which you wouldn't prefer at all. Legally every place who provide free wifi will need you to do sms verification with your smartphone, and record your ip with your smartphone number (which in China is connected to your identity). Then they need not worry about liability, because if anything goes wrong, they can tell the police exactly who you are.

If you want both privacy and liability, it seems indeed only you can do is to be harsh on larger entities like cafe shops who provide free wifi.
> By "officially" do you mean legally?

Yes. Union contracts or in the case of public service actual law... basically, the provisions exist to prevent "backdoor deals" or at least make them really expensive.

In the end, it's all performance theatre.

False hope for the downtrodden, if they just keep playing the game - that was an age-old feature of human society, back when they were stuck building pyramids for their dear departed betters.

OTOH, a number of nations which seemed hopelessly stuck at the bottom of the pyramid back in 1952 are now doing pretty well, some even by First World standards.
Will she, though? An important part of dealing with toddlers is keeping them from harming themselves like stopping them from playing with knives or sticking their fingers in an electrical outlet. Doesn’t look like she’s doing a terrific job at that.
Speaking of strange Microsoft CURL variants, have you ever faced problem with HTTP2 in practically any network client (for example Eclipse strangely failing all attempts to fetch from new HTTP2-enabled Maven) that could be traced to

C:\Windows\System32\curl.exe

failing handshakes with such HTTP2 servers, whilst any other CURL (from e.g. git-for-windows, even with lover version) could connect to the same server correctly?

Which makes me glad I am using wayland. I am not comfortable with the idea that one browser window could be aware of things like the position of another browser window on my desktop.
Some quick searching gives that FSRM is used for at least 128 bytes or so (ERMS for ≥~2048 bytes for reference); in base x86 (i.e. SSE2) that's 8 loads & 8 stores, ~62 bytes of code. At that point calling into a library function isn't too unreasonable (at the very least it could utilize AVX and cut that in half to 4 loads+4 stores, though at the cost of function call overhead & some (likely correctly-predicted) branches).
Not exactly but yes, it ultimately uses the `memchr` crate [1] which provides SIMD-optimized character and string search routines. But it uses `_mm256_cmpeq_epi8` instead of `_mm256_sad_epu8`.

No, that sounds fairly reasonable - not necessarily the 'hypothesised and then discovered, therefore credible' (that may be survivorship bias), but certainly the potential for that document to be 'Q'.

Given 'Q source' (tautology, forgive me) was a conceptual construct to try to explain a part of the synoptic problem, there's no reason to believe it was necessarily a single document in the modern sense, or that earlier versions (that we don't have) may be subsets of things we actually subsequently got our hands on.
CSAR: European Parliament rejects mass scanning of private messages
I'm in a similar boat. I drive an 07 Volvo wagon, and it's practical, mostly reliable besides the odd repair and replacing wear items.

It's still relatively safe, at least in terms of passive safety (it has a well engineered crash structure, curtain side impact airbags, etc).

It drinks fuel like a drunk uncle drinks wine at a wedding, burns and leaks a little oil, etc. Fuel is very expensive where I live (currently around $8,3 to the gallon), so that's a thing.

But mostly, modern cars are extremely expensive and just not appealing to me as a driver or as an owner. I'd have to go through a ton of repairs and fuel before I'd break even on a new car, I can probably drive my car for more than a decade still before it gets to that point.

Pair that with Mozilla's Privacy Not Included report[0], pervasive tracking in modern cars and bullshit practices like "heated seats as a subscription", and I'm out.

I'm considering just buying a good shell of a car and have it converted to EV when the time comes to replace the Volvo. An EV conversion is about $30-35k for a professional to plan, build, execute and certify. If I want to buy a car that matches or exceeds the comfort, practicality and joy of my Volvo, I'm looking at $60k+ on the new market, at least.
