Heh, yeah, everyone's journey is different :) I started out being a big fan of static typing but eventually found that I'm usually hit by different issues than "this was a int but I expected a string" that were more important to be solved, so I'm mostly using dynamic languages nowadays.

But that's what so great with programming languages, there are so many that work so differently, so there is at least one language for everyone, no matter how different your brain works :)

By the way, if you're a fan of "conciseness" you should give a lisp-type languages a try if you haven't before, will show you a completely different level of conciseness! Clojure is a great introduction to lisps. And if you still need validation of data somehow, clojure.spec et al works great and will introduce you to some cool new things you probably haven't come across before :)
Yeah, it was a huge simplification to be sure. The comment was talking about cutting his train ticket by $15, so I assumed it was more of a long distance thing - amtrack has farebox recovery of 95%
The reason I have faith in a pure-technology solution is because setting up ID-linked database APIs will take time and querying it will cost social networks real money. When this was discussed in the UK, we were looking at 10p per check. That's $1m for Florida alone plus engineering to get it in.

They have innumerable GPU cycles they could redirect to a ML solution, and more importantly this is something that ML and facial recognition systems have been doing in prosumer-grade hardware for well over a decade. If I could set something up to do this in an afternoon, I believe Facebook probably could too.

My proposal only involves ID if you look young enough that the AI isn't certain or you don't want to upload a video. It's cutting out ID checks for 99% over 25yo.

But I do see this more about child safety than a censorship regime. Social networks are poison, even to adults. They're designed to trap us there, keep up "engaging" and not wander off to another platform. Our ability to make an informed choice about whether our kids are being damaged by them (and the people on them - who we have no control over) is seriously diminished. I've seen the stuff my daughters' 8yo friend uploads and the comments would change your mind. Yes, I'm biased, but I don't think that makes me (or this) wrong.
The bands are still around and still being used (though much smaller in trhe US than elsewhere) The main difference between DECT and the more free for all 2.4/5G bands is that in DECT the protocols are specified and designed to coexist and work together (there's no choosing a wifi channel, DECT is smart and will spread out by itself, both in time and freq)

The point remains: software is continually used as the scapegoat when things go wrong to shield human actors. Practitioners in our, admittedly young, field have shown very little appetite for taking any sort of responsibility expected of engineering professionals who inflict harm.
I think consensus with the partner on how to raise a child would be a given. I don't understand how people get to late stages of a relationship before starting to talk about having kids.

And yes, parenthood is hard, it's tough, you can focus on that, but you could also focus on how meaningful it is.

I would never push parenthood on anyone, I understand it's a personal choice. Honestly though, I just feel sad about people missing out, so very often due to misconceptions.

What a low quality article, the author doesn’t even know what a stock buyback is and struggles to even explain it to the reader.
I don't mean it's something to ignore entirely. I mean it's a separate to the question about about the business. The OP needs an answer to "How can this startup move on without one co-founder?" rather than "How can this startup move on without one co-founder, because they have cancer?"
How have you ever gotten the full story so many times to know that these people exist in such numbers? You'd have to hear their bad idea (apparently be intelligent enough to understand them completely) and then you'd also be there to hear them griping and blaming management and again finding their complaints uncompelling.

Sorry, but what? Is this really an ad-hoc DSL embedded in a regular comment that's then preprocessed by… something, to generate the actual Go code? Certainly there's something that sucks here!

Edit: I'd find it marginally less sucky if there at least were some special prefix like `//#` or `//my-preprocessor` or whatever to mark magical semantically significant comments. And what's the deal with the `field[type]` syntax that seems totally ad hoc, why not use the standard Go syntax `field type`?

One area it can come up is the country's ability to self-supply things.

To take a example that is currently of interest, Russia's ability to manufacture weapons is far greater than that if a country with the same nominal GDP but is closer to its PPP GDP (plus the effects of being more self sufficient than most countries other than the big two).

Wehrmacht gave great support from the sides.

At the beginning of the war, American flag officers were humiliated by their much more experienced and skillful Wehrmacht counterparts. Lt. Gen Lloyd Fredendall and other fools just had to go or the war would end before it started. It was a natural evolution.

The only subpar American general who thrived in WWII was Gen. Douglas MacArthur. He came out of every mess he created with a hero's reputation. He could fix everything with a bombastic speech and infinite self-confidence.

Yes, it's incredibly annoying (and I'm contributing to the problem by participating in this meta discussion). My general policy is any time I see a post that does this (without saying anything else substantive), I downvote and flag. I usually reserve flagging for truly egregious examples of garbage, but I make an exception for this type of post.

And meanwhile instead of reading later comments and participating, I'm commenting on this dumb thread. Sigh.

Edit: wow, at the time of writing, there are only three comments on this post that's actually about the article itself, with the rest complaining about the page design. C'mon HN, do better.
Most importantly, not having to deal with BT software shittiness. BT is actually OK when it works but getting it to work and not stumbling on edge cases is the tricky bit, suggesting the RF side of it is sane and adequate but let down by terrible software.

I don't understand. The only way this looks to free up the $8B for stock buybacks is if Intel was already going to invest in doing all of this already and specifically here.

Can they reallocate capital to stock buybacks if they were already going to do this, yes! Could I find anything prior to this bill to indicate any competitive reason for Intel to do this in the USA? No.

The actual problem is that nobody uses these low precision floats for training their models. When you do quantization you are merely compressing the weights to minimize memory usage and to use memory bandwidth more efficiently. You still have to run the model at the original precision for the calculations so nobody gives a damn about the low precision floats for now.
I've seen this happen. Start pushing off the work of the old job and doing the new job before the promotion.

No one needs $8 billion in subsidies. But that’s how we run the United States now. There’s no longer comprehensive legislation trying to solve a particular (perceived) problem. Instead we just drop money from the sky on various people and companies.

Bridges were not designed for being hit. They were designed to span. If those designing and engineering it had considered an impact, the design would not be catastrophic but rather sectional. If sectional, each span would remain standing rather than collapse like dominoes. It takes 3 miles to stop a 100k ton stacked container ship. The things nobody has mentioned are: Current direction and speed. Wind direction and speed. The entry of the vessel in relation to the bridge. The fact that dragging anchor would have on the starboard side pulled the bow right into the pilon, the worst case.
This is underrated.
Eg I have Garmin Pay on my watch. It works anywhere Apple/google etc works, even though the merchants and quite possibly whoever set up their terminals have never heard of it.
In many cases yes, but: What if you publish multiple tools in a single package? What if you publish a package for a web service called X, but also include a tool for it called xcli? What if your package is primarily a library, but you also include an optional cli (like in this case, probably)?

I think what's worse is publishing a package under a different name than its root namespace.
For a standard published 4 years ago, I'm surprised my googling isn't showing up any reference boards or the like that would attract wannabe hobbyists like myself. Is there some fundamental problem why it doesn't seem to have made it to market?
This works fine if you never plan to take outside capital. Otherwise, expect this to be renegotiated back to market standard 4/1 terms if you ever do raise.
My own experience is that most people focus on the stresses, worries and overall negative(?) aspects. Maybe I've had it easy and I'm incredibly fortunate, which I often feel like, but after becoming a father I would tell you that all the stresses, worries and overall negative aspects are nothing, NOTHING, compared to the positives.

As I said in other comments, I'd never push anyone on such a personal topic, but I'll never forget how, right after my first was born, I simply wished parenthood on everyone.
It'd be interesting to colour this map, not by continent, but by {Disputed Territories, Eastasia, Eurasia, Oceania} alignment.

Assuming India as a Commonwealth country counts in Oceania, that leaves Indonesia as the largest "Disputed Territories" member on this graph...
Yes, I think it's actually a decent way of doing it, given how limited golang is when it comes to enums. (Better might be to use tags, but I think they are only allowed on struct fields.)

I think codegen is generally fine for repetitive tasks. It's just a shame that golang doesn't give you a way to do this built-in. Even java has this feature, even if it's lacking in some regards.

and other emoticons?
There is no point to the article, though. Enums suck in every language that have them. There is good reason why many modern languages don’t have them at all, offering sum types instead. It doesn’t add anything to the conversation.

Its a thorny issue so I will point out that this is the exact line of argument of Israel for their behaviour.

In 2005 they left their settlements in Gaza, it was met with the death of democracy, the establishment of a terror group as the local goverment and 18 years of endless escalations of violence.

In the 90s Israel voted for a socialist leader who offered so much to Israel that 80% of Israel thought he had offered too much. Palestine denied the 2 state solution. The Israeli leader was killed by local far right terrorists. And after Palestine stepped out of the talks they launched the 2nd intifada which was the largest amount of violence since 1967 war.

Israel 20 year decline into far right goverments comes on the back of what seemed to them genuine efforts for peace, genuine offers (some over gracious, despite Palestinians feeling it wasnt enough) and the removal from the palestinian side to come to the table.

Since the Camp David accords Israel has had 3 peace offers, Palestine did not even come to the table for 2 of them.

As appaling as the current state of settlements in the west bank is, and the far right members of goverment. Israel had 5 elections 2 years ago and the far right only won by a marginal difference. The worst Israeli goverment ever is an unsustainable allience after 5 elections of deadlock. The political will in Israel has always been peace.
Theoretical end goal which will ensure a company's future but reality is never straight forward.

It's not about tapping an icon, it's about the understanding that turning things off has non-obvious consequences on other bits of features, an understanding that can only be reached by getting down technical rabbit holes.

e.g (just one example) turning WiFi completely off degrades the ability to geofence, one's automations may be delayed or non-functional and one would be bewildered as to why. Turning WiFi off one day, forgetting about it, then having apparently unrelated things not work the next day is hard to diagnose.

There's a next-day trigger for sure for the WiFi disconnect+no-auto-reconnect ("disable WiFi" in the support page†) but I must admit that I don't know what's the exact trigger - if any - for the master WiFi switch in Settings.app ("turn WiFi off" in the support page†) to be turned back on. Next day? After a software update (e.g an automated nightly one)? Exiting hotspot mode? As you suggested, a bug? Nothing and it's people forgetting they have turned it back on "temporarily"? The support page† doesn't say anything about it.

Should one desire to enforce WiFi off as a policy, the shortcut can act as a safety net around all these cases, the tool is available to help automatically enforce the policy, and I don't think it's helpful to sit and hold one's breath til one turns blue because it shouldn't do what it's doing, refusing the opportunity to get control back.

I agree that Shortcuts is awfully limited, sometimes inexplicably so. I mean, picking up a random wallpaper from a Photo album every X hours should be entirely doable, yet there's just no way to do it.

EDIT: I have tried the hotspot thing.

- set iOS WiFi off
- request hotspot connection from another device
- iOS WiFi turns on
- if no known autojoin AP is in range
- iOS WiFi turns on
- hotspot connection succeeds
- upon hotspot disconnect iOS WiFI stays on (BUG #1: should restore WiFi off)
- if a known autojoin AP is in range
- iOS WiFi turns on
- iOS WiFi connects to AP (BUG #2.a: should not connect to AP)
- hotspot connection fails (BUG #2.b: caused by #2.a?)
- WiFi stays on, connected to AP (NOT BUG: consequence of #2.a)
- (optional) re-request hotspot connection
- iOS WiFi disconnects from AP
- hotspot connection succeeds
- upon hotspot disconnect iOS WiFI stays on (NOT BUG: consequence of #2.a, which caused WiFi state == on at second hotspot-request-time)
- iOS WiFi eventually joins AP

This may happen unattended if the requesting device has "auto-join hotspot" enabled.
I'm curious: Why two-time?

It feels to me that YC would generate enormous value the first time. It feels like there might be very strongly diminishing returns on investment after that. My impression is that the equity YC receives, relative to funding, is quite high, and most of the network / learning / etc. would happen on round one (This is a comment about me to give context for my likely naive question, not a comment about YC; I'm explaining in hopes you'll explain how I'm wrong. Given you did it twice, I am aware my thinking here is probably wrong, and I need to share my misconception to have it addressed)
And to compete against them Apple would need to make a separate GPU, not an integrated GPU.

The claim isn't plausible anyway. A single chip can't expend as much energy as a flagship desktop GPU, and Apple doesn't have some 10x more efficient method of computation.

That's idiomatic go. See https://go.dev/blog/generate and '//go:generate stringer -type=Pill'

See also '//go:embed', which also turns a variable into a magic type via an ad-hoc comment-only DSL.

In go, it is idiomatic to say "macros slow down compilation and often require a second pass, go compilation is fast, macros are bad", and then also to have an extra "make sure go generate is up to date" CI step which parses your go codebase 10 more times, forks dozens of processes, and isn't type-safe since of course it's not it's literally a comment you can typo "//gog:enerate" and no one will notice.
I suspect the big deal is combination of range, density, and effective bandwidth for given density, which is explicitly something they compare against other IoT wireless protocols.
