The conclusion just raises further questions on why the coup happened, other than a "consequence of a breakdown in the relationship and loss of trust between the prior Board and Mr. Altman".
This is a great idea; but surely you meant to say "demystify", not "mystify"? I'm not sure government procedures need to be any more opaque...
This is probably about the nesting of transactions.

If you start a transaction when the calling code already started a transaction, then either you get an error because nested transactions are forbidden, or a reference counter is incremented for the transaction, so that when you close your inner transaction, no commit is done at that point, and instead the commit is only done when outermost transaction closes.

This latter case means that you don’t know when your inner transaction really commits, and also if you perform multiple inner transactions and the later one fails, the earlier one will implicitly also be rolled back, because they are all really just one shared outer transaction.

Of course, you could use separate database connections with independent transactions, but then you get into deadlocks or other problems when you really work on the same data.

So you can’t have modules that build on each other, while each being able to use transactions independently from each other. Transactions don’t compose in that way.

You would basically have to “color” every function based on wether it may perform a transaction or not, and within a transaction block you would only be allowed to call functions that don’t themselves perform a transaction. It becomes more complicated when you have transactions that are not lexically scoped, but for example live in an object.
I'd think that Uber would just hire the wheelchair accessible taxis directly from the taxi company. Maybe the taxi company charged 3x or more for the ride, but it's still cheaper for Uber.

> Hamas though is a terrorist organization. Internationally recognized as such almost universally.

I have to correct you on the latter because these details matter. According to the Wikipedia page about it [0], it is designated as a terrorist group by Israel, USA and the 5 eyes, the European Union organization, Japan, Argentina and Paraguay. That is essentially Israel, USA and countries that are under direct American influence through NATO, which is far from "almost universally", and really is a smaller fraction of countries in the United Nations.

My cousin told me about 13F filers about a year and a half ago, and I was shocked to find out that all SEC data is public. After I saw that a lot of sites restrict data for SEC filings, I set out to find the SEC filings directly and make them more accessible.

This project was a way to use my web development experience for a good cause, and to learn a lot along the way. I hope to improve the project thouroughly though user suggestion, then maybe hand it off to other people. Like I said in my post, my main goal is to one day get into start-ups, so I can create good in the world through them. This is hopefully the first step in that journey.

Thanks for your kind words.
The VPN can be configured to only send DNS requests (port 53). If necessary, you can also tunnel port 443 for requests to well-known DoH servers (though with a VPN going to the same local network as your DNS server, DoH seems unnecessary)
Isn't it generally kind of weird for the CEO to also sit on the board?
These types of companies have been very common before government agencies were on the internet. When I traveled to the US for the first time in the 90s, I had a choice - apply for visa myself, and deal with all the bureaucracy and lines and stuff (nothing was online back then), or pay additionally to the company that just takes my papers and after a while returns my passport with visa stamped and all that. I chose the latter and never regretted it. Yes, they took money for something that I could have gotten for free, but it'd cost me time and effort and annoyance. Now though, a lot of these processes are much more convenient online, so the same companies have to resort to tricks to still make the same living they used to make before.

The EU did not compel Apple to have a comercial relationship with Epic.

It is Apple who decided that third-party software distributers must comply with certain restrictions, and must sign a contract with them.

And it was Apple which tried to prevent Epic from signing that contract, and who's now backtracking… before it's forced to do so by the EU.
It's wild to see such a blatant hit piece on Facebook. There's barely a mention or analysis of the actual dispute between Facebook and news media. They might actually have an interesting article if they delved into the actual details of the case, the people involved, the actual written law, and where both sides are coming from.

But no, that might paint Facebook as potentially acting reasonably — can't have that. Let's just laundry list everything we think makes them look bad and hope people don't look too deep into the "Facebook isn't 'paying' for news" line. It doesn't matter that they're also dropping news in the US where there's no such law, right?
Bad design != Design. UI design is a communication medium, like technical writing. Within a weekend of fiddling, damn near anyone can operate the tools to assemble interfaces, but that does not mean they are interface designers. Failing to use color to appropriately communicate actions or state and thoughtlessly applied labeling are the actions of graphic designers trying to make things look pretty, or developers do to make things look 'designed.' That happens all the time and is no more an indictment of UI design than wordpress sites running janky homespun themes made from copy-and-pasted tutorial code are an indictment of web development.

I would rather that developers do not have the choice to choose an app store where anything goes.

It’s funny how when Apple threatens a European company the EC can act within days, but when a German company is violating the GDPR, it takes 4 years for them to act. What a strange coincidence.
I suppose the only similarity between us in this regard is that if we had to choose between humanity and professionalism, neither of us would have a doubt.

Lithium is a super common element. They are mining tens of thousands of tons per year increasing rapidly as make electric car batteries. Lithium-6 is 5% of lithium. Fusion reactors only need tons for breeding blanket.
Pithy saying, but they were largely a mid-range brand and didn't have the air of very high margins, especially once you account for the distribution and logistics overhead on large, heavy, service-hungry products.

I really doubt that they had much room to trim prices without just switching to throwaway equipment made of even flimsier materials than they'd already been introducing.

It's much more plausible that a changing market combined with inherently high inertia just sent them driving towards this cliff.
People are panicking too much over that.

AI is very good at low effort content. But that's not really competitive in the professional market. There it's just a nice tool that still needs an user with artistic skills.
How does that change if you account for waste disposal in the costs? From what I gather the nuclear waste of fusion has a much shorter half-life. That should make storage and disposal much easier.
I think there’s more to it than this, and it’s subtle: The iPhone was cool.

Seriously, the original iPhone had little going for it technically. No GPS, poor data bandwidth, no apps, and minimal ability to make phone calls. (It took the combined efforts of Apple and AT&T a couple generations before you could reliably place a call.)

But it had a touch screen that felt nice, and you could watch videos and play music! The web browser actually performed well despite the low bandwidth. It could zoom. And Steve Jobs marketed it well, whereas Steve Ballmer was terrible at marketing.

IMO the iPhone was considerably worse for business use than Windows Mobile, and neither one held a candle to the BlackBerry. But it didn’t matter.

The individual doctors don't have much choice when they're heavily indebted by the time they become doctors.

We (the AMA?) regulate where a doctor gets their education in order to become a doctor. This gives schools a lot of power. It also gives hospitals a lot of power when those doctors work insane shifts during their rotations.
They probably still can't carry the necessary current without helium cooling. There are some NMR spectrometers (which work essentially by the same principles as MRI machines) with high-temperature superconductors, but those are still cooled by helium. The lower the temperature is the more current you can pack into those.

Could also be that it doesn't make economic sense yet, they're still pretty new compared to classical superconductors.
The only fusion pathway being seriously studied for energy in the short (read: next century) term is D-T fusion, it doesn't need to be stated.

Deuterium and Tritium are the fuels, they have to be. There are lots of other pathways, but they all require even higher temperatures/pressure than D-T, and we can't really sustain even D-T for any useful length of time.

There are some codes that can be used for asynchronous portal messages, but to be honest the AMA is still pretty broken as far as how much time we need to spend for things... the codes are 99421 (5-10 minutes over 7 days), 99422 (11-20 minutes), 99423 (21+). It is not clear to me how well these codes are actually paid for by private insurance. In a wRVU system a PCP may get paid like $5-13 for the first code, $15-30 for the 2nd, $24-44 for the 3rd. This is a lot less than a visit... and you must spend the minimum 5 minutes on the portal message or you are billing it fraudulently. I can cover an in person level 4 visit (99214) in 5 minutes in some cases, which pays something like $100.
LOL, it's a very hard language to learn, despite Rust evangelists claiming it comes naturally to them since they were babies.

Yes: Commonwealth Fusion essentially is buying the world's supply of it.

MRIs are a more mature market, i.e. > 1 units, and need to justify component switches not just for feasibility, but for profitability. Swapping out a known-good for something in such short supply isn't feasible, it's more expensive than liquid helium.

Surdy first began following American politics during the 2020 election, which he said many of his friends and peers in the UK paid close attention to as well.

An outgrowth of a globally connected information source is the transfer of political interest and influence (beyond pop culture) to other countries in ways that wouldn't have happened in the past. From the Economist in 2022:

British politics is obsessed with America. mps, wonks and journalists gorge on American history and follow its politics in fine detail. They also ape its language. Local elections, when council voters decide who has the privilege of collecting bins and cutting services to pay for social care, are sometimes called “mid-terms”. Parts of Britain are occasionally labelled “flyover country”, even if 90% of the population lives within a four-hour drive of Northampton."

Then there was the Canadian trucker protests, in which some cited their "First Amendment rights":

Tamara Lich, the Alberta woman whose GoFundMe campaign raised over $10 million for the convoy, and her husband had their day in court—and Dwayne Lich said he was innocent, because: “Honestly? I thought it was a peaceful protest and based on my First Amendment, I thought that was part of our rights.”

The judge then asked, “What do you mean, First Amendment? What’s that?”

Because, of course, the First Amendment is part of the U.S. Constitution, not the Canadian Charter.

The answer is that Altman tried to get the Board removed, the Board found out and snap fired him, which scared the shit out of Microsoft. The prior and new Boards both cannot make the allegation that Altman tried to commit a corporate coup, albeit for different reasons[0], so we're never going to get official confirmation of anything.

My prediction is that Altman will, unmoored from any sort of accountability, wind up fucking shit up like every god damned SV founder, get fired, and then OpenAI will wind up being eaten by Microsoft for a song.

Maybe it should be. "Peer reviewed" is taken as a sign of reliability in many contexts, including public policy. If it isn't actually such a sign, then either it needs to change so it is, or we need to stop taking it as a sign of something it isn't.

I find VSCode is fast enough for me. I work on a project with ~800k files. VSCode launches fast, finds files fast, greps fast enough, etc... So to me, JS is working as advertised. Choose the right solutions and algorithms and it works fast.

Smalltalk doesn’t persist by default, you have to explicitly save a snapshot of your image.
a friendly heads up: the website's background image is 3.2MB. while it doesn't really matter for you (cached) or for HN readers (mostly desktop, mostly high speed internet), for what seems to be the intended demographic - a mobile user on a shoestring budget - 3.2MB to load an abstract pattern is asking a lot. you could replace it with an equivalent CSS/SVG design or run it through something like tinypng.

That only makes sense if we assume Apple’s world class legal team didn’t see what every lay person could. Rolling back the decision is not going to get them out of the eyes of the regulators and they must have assumed that going into it. Why give the EU even more ammo against you.

My guess is that they saw that all happening but Epic provided them a letter saying they double pinky promised, cross their hearts, will obey by the rules this time, which Apple will later try to use in court later on. Otherwise it doesn’t seem worth the risk prompting clearly foreseeable regulator action.
The fact the headline is probable enough that most people will read it at face value without questioning is undeniably Boeings fault.
