I'm of the opposite opinion. I think there's some Dunning-Kruger-like effect at play on a macro scale and it's causing researchers to feel like they're closer than they are because they're in uncharted territory and can't see the complexity of what they're trying to build.

Finding me an interesting job (given my preferences): shifting through the offers in several sites, doing the job of building me a CV tailored for each position, sending the initial mail, keeping track of the responses, etc. (I'd do the interviews obviously).

Finding offers for local work is easy on LinkedIn but once you go fully remote worldwide there are so many websites/listings to look at and so many open positions to apply that I get a bit overwhelmed.

I'd probably happily give my first or first two salaries for this work, given that it's truly interesting for me. Now, the catch is that I'm more Junior than Senior and there aren't many open positions for things like systems programming, etc. so it might take quite a few months for the whole thing to come to fruition, and I don't have too much money to pay monthly.

The good thing is that it's probably not that much work specially once you've sent several CVs and are waiting on an answer so the agent probably can do several clients at once.

For those keeping score: consoles are getting behind AMD's current tech -- a generation behind on the memory (DDR4 vs 5), 10 nm behind on the CPU fab (14nm vs 4nm), and two generations behind on the zen architecture (Zen 2 vs Zen 4). I guess that means we are due for a new console generation in the next year or two? Which will probably be based on this faster, better 8000G series (or the next one).

In my experience, Android-Studio creates the app for me. There are many files indeed, but that's nicely solved by the IDE. Then Kotlin is great, and I really like Jetpack Compose.

> longer you live, the less adaptable your species is

I live near Yellowstone. There are seasonal hunting grounds the bison, which live a decade or two, won’t cross into. The wolves, meanwhile, don’t live long enough for the lesson to stick. So they continuously cross and get shot.

Humans erected an invisible barrier. The bison adapted where the wolves, arguably the more intelligent creature, did not, in part due to the latter’s short lifespan.

The best of both worlds would be a long-lived polygamous creature that’s constantly reproducing. Ecology, however, proscribes limits on that approach.
For loose bolts, incorrect assembly is by far the most likely cause.

It can be a design problem if the bolts and associated parts like washers have been substituted recently or if the assembly instructions have been changed recently, e.g. by specifying a different torque. If any such engineering change has happened recently, then that would be the likely culprit.

A resonance problem of the aircraft body as supposed by another poster seems extremely unlikely as that would have required significant recent changes to the aircraft body, which did not happen.
Machines won't need the biosphere to survive.

If they accelerate the burning of fossil fuels, extract and process minerals on land and in the ocean without concern for pollution, replace large areas of the natural world with solar panels, etc., the world could rapidly become hostile for large creatures.

An ocean die out as a result of massive deep sea mining would be particularly devastating. It's very hard to contain pollution in the ocean.

Same for lakes. And without clean water things will get bad everywhere.

Ramping up the frequency of space launches a few orders of magnitude into the solar system for further resources could heavily pollute the atmosphere.

Microbes might be fine, and be able to evolve to changes, for much longer.
> You could have an interface on a car that is almost entirely touch screens. You might see replacing the steering wheel with a touch screen interface. That would be consistent but not a good mapping to people's mental model.

Consistency means that users can expect the same behavior from elements with the same specific purpose. When you put steering wheel and infotainment system in the same classification bucket, it is not consistency, it is excessive abstraction.

It's not really that complicated. They just hate Jews (and the US), it's quite literally in their slogan.

The comparison of the accomplishments of one entity versus the entirety of humanity is needlessly high. Imagine if we could duplicate everything humans could do but it required specialized AIs, (airplane pilot AI, software engineer AI, chemist AI, etc). That world would be radically different than the one we know and it doesn't reach your bar. So, in that sense it's a misplaced benchmark.
> you never know when you need to write https://

It is not a proper URL without the protocol part up front. Browser creators improperly trying to hide the protocol not-withstanding.

ycombinator.com,

ycombinator.com is not technically a URL, it is simply a domain name. The fact that browsers all invisibly 'auto convert' it to a URL when entered into their URL/magic bars does not magically make it into a url. If youtube's code which is looking for URL's to automatically make them anchor links simply looked for words with dots, then a large amount of false positives would occur (things that are not URL's getting wrapped in anchor links).

You can blame the browser makers, and the evil one specifically, for all the hiding of URL structure such that people now think "ycombinator.com" should be interpreted as if it were a URL everywhere.

It's not "human waves" in Ukraine, it's advance by attrition in Ukraine, as
JumpCrisscross pointed out above. The Russians have not considered themselves limited by causalities, while the Ukrainians have to conserve manpower and materiel. So the Russians can "afford" to throw a bunch of squads out along a front, and if 90% or more are casualties, they don't care, so long as they can take some ground. Then, once they do, they rinse, lather, and repeat. It's a hideous expenditure of human lives, but it has worked tactically. Whether it is a significant gain operationally or strategically, I don't know. (Russia is going to pay a price down the road for losing all those young men, but it won't be paid by the old men sending them to their deaths.)
Almost all evil has "context" - doesn't make it any less evil.

> That the Russian Federation has a small fraction of US GDP but has launched more cruise missiles in a single conflict (~7500) than the US has ever produced (4000 tomahawks) is an important example of this.

By their fruits you'll know them. If Russia was able to destroy the enemy like USA did with half the number of missiles - they absolutely would. But they can't (mostly because USA has system where it takes minutes from recognizing targets to destroying them, and in Russia it takes hours - so they can only hit stationary targets reliably), so they have to go into quantity instead.

Also USA use bombs much more often (because they could - because they obliterated the air defence in the first hours which Russia still can't do).

The details are pretty math heavy but what these solvers are doing is they try to find an optimal assignment to a bunch of variables x,y,z,etc while respecting a bunch of constraints like

3x + 2y <= 10

4z >= 3.5

Additionally, there is an “objective function” that defines what optimal means. Something like:

maximize (3x + 10y - 2z)

It’s not obvious but all kinds of problems can be modeled in this framework, like scheduling-, graph-, routing- problems. A big application is logistics: maximize profit / minimize costs under certain constraints.

So the solvers are just dealing with this inequality solving business. And this is where a lot of theoretical advances have happened. It’s a large field and I barely scratch the surface but it’s very interesting. Some keywords are: Operations Research, Mixed Integer Programming, Simplex Method.
I think the Jellyfin integration could be more than just a niche feature. I've used https://www.languagereactor.com/, but that only supports Netflix & YouTube, which is a bit limiting.

Reasons it's useful:
* If you've got both Native & Target Language subtitles, you can see a natural translation if you're struggling to understand something
* If there isn't a Native translation, then you can machine-translate one - especially useful early on to catch common idioms/etc that aren't just the sum of each individual word.
* Jellyfin also supports eBooks, although its reader isn't great - but if someone has already built their library, it would be nice to be able to re-use it somehow.

I would be very interested in seeing that particular feature expand, but I don't imagine it's at all simple!

Tangentially related, but I could see some desire for Calibre support as well, somehow. Calibre was very much designed to be completely stand-alone and it doesn't really support other apps trying to read its database, but it is possible.

I'd also really like some language-specific features, like separable-verb handling for German (see this comment: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=38915786) - it's relatively important and lacking support really limits the usefulness of vocab tools. It would also be a nightmare to handle for subtitles, since it's not always clear where a sentence ends, but such is life - subtitles are sadly not aimed at language leaners. For books and not-terrible Podcast transcripts, though, it wouldn't be so bad.

I was not familiar with this author, but they mentioned that these principles were defined around 1985 — before Nielsen‘s heuristics. A lot of things were different 40 years ago, so language may indeed seem a bit archaic.
I'm guessing it's simpler than that. It's hard to keep the seed and mechanisms for reproduction healthy forever. Even if there's no harm to the group, anti-aging might have a cost that reduces the individual's ability to reproduce at an earlier age, or at least it doesn't help.
