> Turns out, the first line of the Wikipedia article isn’t overly helpful.

Why did you have to resort to looking it up on Wikipedia? You seemed confident in your proclamation.

> Populism refers to providing simple solutions for complex problems; throwing all nuance over board, in favour of just faulting „them“; using big, powerful words that pick out and vastly exaggerate a single aspect of a situation to sway readers into your own perspective; or put simply, populism means convincing simple minds by giving them an easy explanation that something is wrong because someone else did something bad.

Thanks for proving my point. My God, none of this has anything to do with defining a political ideology:

- Throwing all nuance over board

- Big, powerful words; vastly exaggerate

- Sway readers

- Simple minds

- Easy explanation

Most of the people who write about populism are negative about it. But they at least write about populism!, i.e. a political ideology about the common people versus the elites. You so far haven’t even mentioned one single salient point about what it actually is. (Sorry, but pejoratives don’t count. I can’t say “Communism is when mean people convince dumb people with their evil ideas” and expect anyone to take me seriously.)

> Claiming Israel is an Apartheid state does a giant disservice to those that actually suffered during the Apartheid in South Africa, the Palestinians living in Israel, everyone in Israel that supports intercultural relations, and everyone else that might be interested in achieving piece. All you do is sow hate.

This is pure rhetoric. You think that the statement is wrong? Well just say that then instead of bawling all over the place about how it hurts puppies.

Plenty of people who support Palestinians call Israel an apartheid state because calling a spade for a spade (the truth) is good practice for justice and truth.

Yes; rulesets and even settings are not the most important thing and are highly subjective. It is hard to make recommendations.
I would expect a GM to scale difficulty to prevent characters dying too much (at least if they don't want to) with any system. But I can see that Pathfinder dose incentivize min-maxing long lived characters which will not be everyone's cup of tea.
Similarly the combat system is fairly terrible in Cyberpunk 2020 but never stopped me enjoying it.
404 media is lying when they say any image of a man with a wood carving of a dig is stolen.

Copyright does not work that way.

They need to be sued into bankruptcy for defamation.

AI is a wonderful tool that lets anyone creat beautiful images, and the incumbents in the image-faking field are deeply offended by that.
I don't understand what you're talking about.

Reviewing code has nothing to do with what review tools or git verbs you use when remedying issues found in the code review.

Code review is just applying a quality standard to the codebase.
An with AI advancing so fast, they will be better than what most people would create on their own.
Loved the most of the presentation but i felt he lacked the big picture, it is no longer about just going to the moon but this time we want to potentially settle and expand to other planets. Because of this we are not just trying to replicate how we went there but it is such an invaluable document to do what we want to do.!!
Yeah. The culture crash here is shocking dissonant. The people you'd normally expect to be the biggest voices for documentation robustness are...

... suddenly finding themselves in the "Actually, language standards are bad" camp, all because of a tribal opposition to the FSF?

Write the standard. Then argue that gccrust doesn't do it right. Don't refuse to document the language just to hamstring a competitor.

Also, please start with the borrow checker semantics. I don't think I've ever met anyone who could explain exactly what the rules are regarding what it can/can't prove.
Ask HN: How to release features seamlessly as a Software engineer?
I am at a medium-sized startup owning an internally used self-serve analytics service with a reasonable load. I am the sole owner of this service with thousands of lines of code. Since I am the only guy working on this, I take all the architecture decisions, do DevOps like setting up step functions, API Gateways, giving accesses, setting up staging infra, writing feature code, raising PRs, reviewing and deploying them myself, test on staging, and do sanity on production. However, I have fumbled often while releasing new features most recently today resulting in downtime for many users throughout the day. Even though I come up with creative ideas and write good code, the optics of my work are getting bad because of the bad releases. The reasons for the bad releases are 1. I did not do enough load-testing 2. Since this service is constantly updating, I frequently fumble with git. like accidentally pushing testing code/hardcoding onto prod 3. there are lots of flows in the service, so missing out on testing one of them. 4. other notable issues like bad queries from analytics team.

I am always the kind of guy who is creative, authentic and believes in move fast and break stuff. However, my company expects me to move fast but don't break anything. I was also told that I make small mistakes from time to time. (Most recently, I forgot to turn on a cron on prod). I do love my work and I think the decisions I make and the code I write are of high quality but these issues are affecting my optics. (I have trouble concentrating for long hours. I work in short bursts if that's worth anything). How do I overcome this situation, and improve my optics and my confidence? Thanks
Is this playable with physical cards in practice? It seems that there is a lot of handling of money, more than cards, which would be impossible to do with any speed.
Can Figma issue bonuses out of the $1B payout?
Or, maybe we could make attempts to regulate our market economy in order to prevent monopolies, and thereby encouraging competition. (aka, disruption)

I didn't truly process the damage that monopolies can do until I heard this podcast with Sean Carroll and Cory Doctorow.

Indeed so - though not only of the library. Government in general is limited in pay bands that do not even begin to compare to private industry, so it relies on people who are altruistic if they’re any good.
Ah, so your evidence for your counter positions against all of the worlds leading experts on this field is

“There’s an elitist conspiracy to remove the truth from the internet.”

This despite the fact that HN, Reddit, twitter, Facebook literally EVERYWHERE is littered with your ridiculous claim.

Again. The reason I don’t believe you is because the actual experts in examining the origin of a virus state that it looks natural, while you, who has zero qualifications other than “I did my own research with Facebook memes bro”, state that the worlds leading experts are all organized in a conspiracy with worldwide ISPs, alt-right tech giants like twitter and Facebook who are known to intentionally propagate disinformation intentionally, and media to convince you otherwise for absolutely no benefit what-so-ever.

You are not a victim of a conspiracy, just of falling prey to propaganda.
Here are a few Java implementations that I've used recently.

- My Android phone

- OpenJDK on my laptop

- leJOS for a university robotics course to run on Lego robots

- Smart cards, I have a couple in my wallet

Perhaps I'd call the Lego robot stuff obsolete, certainly not the Android userspace or smart cards though.
> Even when people know an image is fake, it still seems to be able to sway them.

Yes, this has been happening for a long time. This is why fiction literature exists.

If images we know are fake could not move our emotions, nobody would have ever laughed at a cartoon.

Oh, I read your comment as if you were equating nation states and pirates. But it seems that you were saying that, well if you can’t even expect X of nation states, then why should you expect it of pirates (which are worse)? Now I think I get it.
I don’t think that’s legal. You could have sued them for damages or hotel
This response is literally NIMBYism: "Build build everywhere, just Not In My Back Yard. My neighborhood is special".

If you believe that acceleration is critical, then you should be willing to take some sacrifices yourself in order to build or expand. If you start making exceptions, then you are saying that acceleration and growth itself is not inherently good, but only good in _some_ places when it impacts _some_ people.
Indeed, the correct solution here is emqx
Nah. Not at all. Those are all proxies.

It comes from The Market. It comes from some other entity saying, "This is worth X to us, and we're willing to pay that. Here's an offer."

THAT is value. I've already said this, but I'll say it again:

Revenue !== value.
So many of the CVEs against rust crates are actually against the bindings for things like ssl, glibc, and libcurl. I think accepting small growing subsets of ssl and curl for native implementation would be a good idea. And relibc too I suppose. Go went this route, and while it caused some headaches porting to new kernels, it has lots of benefits too.
Sure you protect against that, but someone can also just send spam emails containing HTML since you don't sanitize it in any way.

1. get email list

2. write the prompt to be some spam email using HTML

3. use a captcha solving service and just flood your API, sending thousands of spam emails, destroying your mail reputation and possibly getting you banned from mailjet, for the low low price of a few dollars.

possibly worth fixing
I will suggest that perhaps: 1) because the valuation is wrong? 2) because Figma has not actually created a new category/market? this is where you get new entrants into the market. Take AI chips for example.

I think its entirely possible that Adobe has realized 1) and/or 2) and didn't fight all that hard to make the deal work?
There are more details in the FB post of Tomas Mikolov (author of word2vec) recently:

A hilarious and poignant point I see is how experts make mistake too. Quote:

> I also received a lot of comments on the word analogies - from "I knew that too but forgot to publish it!" (Geoff Hinton, I believe you :) happens to everyone, and anyways I think everybody knows what the origin of Distributed Representations is) to "it's a total hack and I'm sure it doesn't work!" (random guys who didn't bother to read the papers and try it out themselves - including Ian Goodfellow raging about it on Twitter).
Boiled down to the core essence, science is about testing ideas to see if they work. Peer review is not part of this process, they rarely if ever attempt replication during the peer review process; and so they inevitably end up rejecting new ideas without even trying them. This isn't science.
I think the reviewers did a good job; the reviews are pretty reasonable. Reviews are supposed to be about the quality of a paper, not how influential they might be in the future! And not all influential papers are actually very good.
> it's better for consumers and the market if competitors fight to the (metaphorical) death instead

I never understand why this is the only other option. If you're in a town and open a coffee shop, and someone else opens a coffee shop, if the town is big enough, you can both thrive. You don't have to try to take out the competition. But every big corporation decides it's the only option.
Believe it or not, there is a high brow Facebook where this is not a problem. I spend a lot of time on FB with my older friends where literature, film, poetry and science are topics and never see fake stuff. It's called out. That said, I can believe it's a problem on low brow Facebook, I just haven't seen it.
> They need to be sued into bankruptcy for defamation.

How about let's not.
Usually, I won't use any service, platform, etc..., but with FB, things hit differently. Never in my life, would I have thought I'd be proud of not being part of an org., yet here I am.

Interesting that you are getting downvoted here. I have come to a similar conclusion, for my own mental health if for no other reason. My ability to affect the course of human civilization is next to zero, and worrying about AGW, etc., is simply not something I feel driven to do anymore.

I think he missed the point. His entire focus is the landing on moon as the only objective, and doing that with minimal features, which is logical if your goal is just landing on the moon.

US already landed on the moon, now they want a framework that will allow a lunar base, taking into account a mars base. With that in mind, you need extra features.

So I think his entire talk is based on a wrong assumption (and funny to watch from aside, as it is a bit headstrong).

That’s the thing - they are huge. Compare them to cars from the last few decades and the size increase epidemic becomes very clear.
And if a machine hurts an employee on a production line, the company is liable for their medical bills. Just because you've automated part of your business doesn't mean you get to wash your hands of the consequences of that automation with a shrug when it goes wrong and a "well the robot made a mistake." Yeah, it did. Probably wanna fix that, in the meantime, bring that truck around Donnie, here's your dollar.
It returns a resource but I wouldn't say it's working.
I can't read the article, but if one has a tongue tie there can be serious life-long consequences. Basically if one is tongue tied, one's tongue will rest on the bottom of one's mouth. The mouth does not develop normally. The nasal passage way will be narrow. One will likely breath through one's mouth instead of the nose. This will lead to problems of the nasal passage not developing as it should. For one's health it is import to breath through the nose and not the mouth; read James Nestors book Breath. One will have breathing issues and likely sleep apnea. The tongue is supposed to rest on the root of the mouth and not on the floor of the mouth for it to develop properly. The sleep apnea normally gets worse; likely during midlife the sleep problem will effect job performance... Just from a speech impediment problem, it is worth it. I had a tongue tie release surgery (lingual frenectomy) as an adult. I had a release as a baby, but it only release the very front part so that it was barely enough to breast feed and I had speech problems because it was not fully released. After the surgery as an adult my pronounciation improved according to friends. It feels like my tongue can move as it should move. My mouth and nasal passage way did not develop as it should as a child and I am considering major surgery (MMA, EASE procedure, functional rhinoplasy) to correct; not something that one wants to do if one can correct it early with a lingual frenectomy and oral myofunctional Therapy. That being said, one should have it done by somebody that is competent is airway focused and not somebody trying to make extra money. It is normally paired with myofunctional therapy for about 6 weeks before and after the surgery.
On another note, I have tuned into myofunctional podcast run by dental hygenist; they said that the can usually determine whether one is a mouth breather or a nasal breather by the hygene of the mouth...
Everything in engineering is trade offs. A single front end ends up in a stronger position for the community (i.e. the users of the language) because bug reports are easier (only one project to report them to), collaboration is easier/simpler for OSS maintainers (no issues where “crate foo works fine on rustc but doesn’t on gccrs” to triage/maintain), and language features come quicker (no need to synchronize/debate with other implementations). The downsides of underspecification are much smaller by comparison. As far as documentation goes that’s a red herring because gccrs is reusing the single standard library implementation which means that any documentation issues would still exist (I don’t think I’ve even once needed to lookup documentation for the compiler & language docs issues would be shared as well since rustc in this model still remains the canonical ground truth).

STM: A stairway to lock-free programming heaven? (2021)
Don't worry, the shadow libraries have about 20 million books and 100 million scientific papers available, always increasing. There is little risk of AI spam seeping in there, since piracy is a certain threshold for quality. Who'd risk going to jail for pirating generated spam?

ePUB books are basically HTML and CSS, so it's a matter of making a "book browser" instead of a web browser, that can inject links to things mentioned in the book text: such as a name, a place, and especially to another book.
If you think VCs are rational, you’d be in for a fun ride.

Exactly. Union leaders are powerful because they control a large voting bloc and so have local/national politicians at their fingertips. If you take that away then they are left with a normal, boring job.
This is not the takeaway I got. The takeaway I got was the review process improved the paper and made it more rigorous. How is that a bad thing? But yes, sometimes reviewers are focusing on different issues instead of 'is this going to revolutionize A, B, and C'.
I live in the suburbs, where littering isn't a matter of dropping something on the ground, but literally throwing it out your car window in preference to just leaving it on your own floor until you get home.

And I get my exercise partly through daily walks. At least once a week I take a trash bag with me and clean the entire street from the start to my house, a distance of just about 0.2 miles[1]. In about a week, that 0.2 miles (on both sides) typical gets a shopping bad mostly full. The contents are almost entirely from beverages with a little bit of other stuff mixed in. And of those beverages, a large proportion are alcoholic - beer, hard cider, those little bottles they give you on airplanes. Yes, people are making themselves some kind of vodka cocktail in the car.

So my personal experience is that the people littering overlaps significantly with people with bad drinking habits.

[1] I leave the part beyond my house to anyone else who wants to help.

I think this is at the core of the rot of American society. The thinking that a CEO "owes" the marketing of their company so as to cash it in or even turn profits is, in my opinion, is a mark of the biggest moral ineptitude of the western world's thinking. Yes, I realize this is the 'norm', but it clashes with deep values of the people who aren't shareholders, but are no doubt vested in the product the company produces, mainly the customers. It ignores their needs completely because they don't own stock.
"We sold the company, and the new owners bastardized it by slapping their logo on it by eliminating the free tier" is almost commonplace now in business dogma, and yes, most people think it is the kind of strategy 'owed' to shareholders, but this one-sided thinking ignores the better interest of users who the company has built their business on the backs of, and who will now be bait-and-switched into a subscription model, never mind the needs that drove them to the product in the first place. Yes, this is how capitalism works. What I'm saying is that capitalism, as a model, is flawed from a moralistically balanced point of view. It's a never-ending race to the bottom by optimizing for greed until every drop of monetization is squeezed out and every person is left without. Should the owner's employees make money, I mean after all they do the work? Yes, but who takes into account the inestimable value added by the initial users who's interaction with the product shaped it into what it is today?
Very useful and neat. Beats using Rufus to image something.
So by that definition you would only want one web browser as there are currently multiple HTML+CSS+JavaScript "front ends". In which case, you end up with a Chrome monopoly where Google gets to decide what the web looks like!
This keeps getting touted again and again and it's wrong every time. The problem isn't generation, it's storage and distribution, in particular the last mile. Try running a steel smelter on solar power. Natural gas and coal can be transported directly to the factory, solar and wind cannot.

Additionally, dirty coal is very cheap in parts of the world, far cheaper than solar plus batteries. Remember, most of the stuff we consume is not produced in America, and is not subject to US energy policy.
