Right, equating views or view time with the value something brings is another thing wrong with ad-based funding.

The posturing over sexual preference is completely a passive aggressive white western phenomenon whose proponents insist on projecting to other groups whether they are willing to accept the dogma or not or whether they care or not, but simultaneously exclaim the evils of colonialism while not saying a word about your country in public because you're not white. There's an image they have to uphold.

A tongue-in-cheek motto for Nim is "One language to rule them all". While the statement is debatable (with a strong set of arguments for), it's hard to deny what a great fit Nim is for Advent Of Code (and other related sets of problems, such as Project Euler).

The community is sharing and discussing their solutions on the forums[0] and in the dedicated matrix room[1].

The limited scope of individual problems makes them great to see the language in action, compare different approaches and asses how its syntactic weaponry and standard library can help solving the tasks at hand quickly and efficiently.

Agreed, and if Norway, Sweden, and Denmark, are for the people, let the people decide whether want to buy a Tesla and support Elon. Cutting off shipping to their rightful owners sounds like you are curtailing your own citizens from living as they please. Would be interesting if they and other countries unions had stopped the shipments of iPhones to their citizen consumers due to the working conditions and no unions allowed at the time in China. I am sure a lot of sanctimonious iPhone users would be caught in a conundrum.
The primary reason is the rule of law.

You keep mentioning Brazil in your comments, but as a founder I'd rather not have to keep track of the various government officials I have to bribe in order to be compliant, and even then, not be completely sure.

I hate lawyers and I hate governmental red tape, but at least in the US it's consistent, and the rules are laid out for you ahead of time. Finding out three months after launch that you have to buy Chico's cousin a hooker in order to get your business license renewed is suboptimal.
It is both fun and educational. Since the goals of HN can be reasonably oversimplified to "stimulating curiosity", it's completely appropriate.
Not really. Blameless helps with figuring out issues faster and helping people learn something from an incident.

Less "the government" and more "a member of government", the same member who has revealed and demanded accountability when discovering domestic government overreach.

This is yet another example of: If the data can be collected it will be used by governments

You can slow this down by making data explicitly built to be impossible to read in transit (eg e2e) and then deleting or never saving it, but the fact that data flows through multiple stops means each transition is an opportunity for third party observation

This is deterministic and is built into the structure of data production transport and consumption. This is part of the infrastructure and cannot be extricated
It's a chicken and egg problem. EE never had its technocrats like Taiwan or South Korea but a bunch of populist thieves with lack of vision.

Prosperity requires stepping out of your comfort zone and implement ideas that bring competitive advantage over your neighbors. These kind of ideas are lumped in the same category like LGBT rights, climate etc etc.

I'm a European working in a country with strong labour laws.

But I wouldn't want a specific union to have a monopoly over my entire country and in case I don't want them to they shouldn't meddle with my work.

And to be honest I believe that the state postal workers should have absolutely no say on whether someone gets their mail delivered.

Also "no rear view mirror" - it was clearly stated in the video that is only for the production test model and real production models will have rear and side view mirrors.

Push notifications don't signal an active line of communication like that though nor do they connect who's talking, only the means. In all your examples the equivalent would be "They know someone called you."

Peertube technically has P2P, but these days with strict NAT or CGNAT being common good luck getting any kind of P2P connection going for the majority of people. Plus a lot of people on both home and mobile connections have very restrictive data caps.

So you don’t support them because of what they might do later? That’s insane. Support the platforms you like right now. If they get worse you stop supporting them. “Captured” is such a dramatic term. Nothing stops a person from walking away from a video service.

Can’t help but think the worry about future ads is simply rationalization for pirating now.
It's important but what do we do about it?

You're using the internet afterall which isn't your network- it's someone else's! When you send a packet there is a header w/ information required for routing. Some call this the "outside of the envelope" if using the mail analogy. We can pass the buck by using a VPN but this also adds a VPN org that we need to trust. On the other hand, it's not your network! Why do you think you have a right to absolute secrecy and anonymity on someone else's network?

Well... I kinda think it's the same problem? You have designed a system in error if you are trusting an AI system to handle that sorta thing. We have programmable logic to handle payments and emails and all the stuff that's actually important. No self-respecting bank or email provider is going to implement an AI agent that has carte-blanche access to it's feature-set.
Getting rid of all metadata is fundamentally hard, unless providers are willing to deploy PIR or anonymity networks. But I think it's a mistake to assume metadata means "just the timing of a message": these push messages may include a lot of detailed content that is being described in this article as metadata, and all of that stuff can and should be encrypted.

Additionally, with a little bit of work (well, really quite a lot) the push messages can be made to hide the source. This would make it harder to distinguish a Gmail or DoorDash notification from a WhatsApp notification.
Has nothing to do with politics. We've had this system for almost 100 years, Tesla is not the first company that refused to work within the established system, see Toys R Us in Sweden and McDonalds in Denmark.

All true, but you've got a few issues:

- Flame still assumes you have a server somewhere- this is purely for elastic workloads.

- Dynamically scaling horizontally is not something "linux" can do for you: It's a legitimately hard problem because of all the usual distributed systems difficulties.

- Often, there are workloads that are only needed occasionally but also have very different resource needs than the rest of the system. Being forced to not only create a new version of your application, but additionally a bespoke server setup and dedicated VM/Container image for that case takes something that could be trivial in the Flame model, and makes it take hours even for someone experienced.

Basically, you really should've read the article first.
EE has strong labor regulations but workers are easily divided by people who know how to play the game.

> You're trying to find a rational reason for impulsive behavior. There is no "why". He thought the anti-semitic meme was funny/right without thinking too much about it.

If you cared to watch the the interview I linked to above with Andrew Ross Sorkin at the NYT Dealbook summmit, you will hear three things:

a) remorse for the dumb thing he said (he says it is probably the worst mistake he has made)

b) when you say a lot, you're abound to say foolish things and that he has

c) he actually re-explained his clarification of the logic that was widely labeled as antisemitic but that people have chosen to ignore it. If you think this is a cop out, look at (a) again, where he expresses remorse for having said what he said in the way he said it.

> Then he got mad at advertisers for, as he thought, trying to rein him in.

Yes, when people try to limit what you say (beyond the law) then it is natural to be upset about it.

> If you want proof that Elon isn't too concerned about making good products, try using Twitter/X without being logged in. The experience is significantly worse than before the takeover.

Let's talk in 3 years.

Meanwhile, I'll point you to Tesla (Model Y is the best-selling car of any kind across the world), SpaceX, and Starlink. I don't know about you, but I would classify these as best in class.
While I agree that square brackets are abominable, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. I'm sure that Clojure users find them a more elegant solution than the classic number sign followed by round brackets like Lisps use.

We've known the current crop of AI is hilariously vulnerable to jailbreaking. Complete amateur humans are regularly able to do so with less than a days work. If the story was "AI driven fuzzer finds 0 day in popular application" no one would think twice.

Thank you. A book like this choosing an image of "mountains" that is evocative of staring up at a naked woman's body is a stunning, poor choice.

Choices like this could alienate a large number of potential Nim programmers, and make me question the tone and nature of the community.
Any enormous model (especially created by some sort of optimization) will have a huge surface of problems that needs a second, independent layer to box it in. If the box cannot be described properly that will fail, of course.
I'm not the parent and would not say it's immoral but being able to produce content for free is a form of privilege. Not everyone has that luxury. Let's face it we live in a time where engineers make an absurd amount of money for the services they provide.
That's a very narrow view of the situation. It's not up for a small group of individuals to decide that for the whole society. Say they decide tmrw to not accept shipments from Israel. Why should a dock worker have disproportionate say in that?

There's a market, it's tiny compared to the USA but I've seen bigger trucks like the Dodge RAM, Ford F-250, and similar peppered around Stockholm's area more affluent neighbourhoods/municipalities.

When I lived in Huddinge (a higher income municipality with lots of villas/detached houses) it seemed like 1 every 5 houses had at least one of those trucks parked in their garage, some had 2 or more. Same around the Danderyd area...

I've noticed the uptick in larger trucks, and bigger SUVs around the streets here for the past 4-5 years.

I really hope this trend doesn't continue, it sucks.
The 10 views my videos get I can afford. Just like I can afford my web hosting.
Because if Tesla prevails in not having a collective bargaining agreement, then it opens the door to all companies doing the same thing and potentially destroys all unions as they are now.
Agree I should've picked my word more carefully there. The only difference between those with actual wealth and those cosplaying is the window of time in which you can experience the benefits of the consumption. Catches up faster to those operating off of debt instead of wealth, but depending on your current state and life trajectory, that may not matter to you.

No one wants to be rich to be rich, for an arbitrary number in their bank or brokerage account. They want to be rich for some combination of freedom, power, status, and consumption. If you can get that with debt instead of some sort of wealth, there you go.

As I understand, this is not a top-down decision by the government, but unions and their workers.
Poland != all of Eastern Europe.

Yes, it's the same in Romania, on paper, there are loads of rules and regulations to protect the workers, but those rules are broken all the time by employers, especially in low paying jobs, because low paid employees don't have the time and money to take those employers to court, and there are next to no unions.

And the labor laws are still weaker than what workers in for example France or Netherlands would get for the same job at the same company.

Then there's environmental regulations which are laughable in Romania compared to what they are in Germany. To open a dirty tire factory or a mine in Germany you'd get protests up your ass meaning you'd never start building, while in Romania everything gets rubberstamped quickly if you grease the right wheels, meaning the cost of doing business is much lower regardless of wages, as the environmental costs also factor in the total cost of doing business somewhere, not just wages.

Some additional information that might be worth knowing:

* Companies in Sweden are not required to have any collective bargain agreement. Most of them have but many don't. (I've worked in several)
* Model Y is the most sold car in Sweden during the period January to October (https://teknikensvarld.expressen.se/nyheter/bil-och-trafik/s...)
* Few people working at Tesla Sweden have joined the strike. Even the unions admit that this has been disappointing (https://teslaclubsweden.se/strejken-som-inte-fanns/)
* PostNord, the leading postal service has also joined the solidarity strike. For this reason Tesla cannot get license plate numbers to their new cars. Tesla is not allowed to pick them up directly from the factory. This is currently being handled in courts.

Exposure to mold is also likely to be correlated with socioeconomic status, especially in more humid parts of the country. Think what kind of people are most likely to live in rundown houses (or even basements!) barely above the water table, without a functioning HVAC unit.
