This post is deceptive.

This is just an ad for a proprietary product that lets you define abbreviations system wide, with some story telling to make you like the author. I didn't realize it until the end.

It contains no particular insight, no actual numbers about the time it lets you save are shared and it doesn't present what actual abbreviations you can use to help you type faster. Examples are bad and better covered by native features of your tools.

I'm here for the curiosity, an ad can be fine but it'd better be very insightful. Here, it did the opposite of convincing me.

The main example shows an abbreviation that expands to a full email. You wouldn't do that, your parents would hate you for always sending the exact same mail. And you can "edit as new" for this, any good email client lets you do this if you need something like this.

And the three examples at the end are no better, being better covered by built-in features:

- "/ur" to go to an archived version of Mac Donalds doesn't seem realistic. In any case, Firefox's bar is so efficient that you never need to abbreviate anything there. Type a few characters (or even one!) and relevant stuff from your history pop up. It can be parts of different words appearing in the URL or the page title. No effort is spent setting this up. If you do need a keyword shortcut, you can set it up, which is probably not harder than setting up an external tool, and it can be parameterized.

- the "sign in" example is actually better covered by the "remember me" feature, password managers and the form autocomplete feature of browsers (at your choice). Again, the remember me and the autocomplete features require no set up effort.

- if you need fast code editing, IDEs are incredibly efficient at constantly suggesting you the more relevant stuff as fast as possible thanks to LSP servers and equivalent things analyzing your code and its dependencies. There's no way manual abbreviation will work as good but in cases it would, many code editors let you define keywords that expand and code fragments / snippets that can be parameterized. They also let you define macros which can be a very efficient tool for text editing.
Are they though? The "complex .d-file generation" is "gcc -MMD" and a "-include *.d" at the end of the Makefile. You specify the dependencies, and it's on you to get those right, as it is in every other build system. I've never seen a race condition.

The problem with Make, is that it works just well-enough to allow people to sorta get it to work without requiring them to learn how to actually use the thing. Then they don't read the manual, and complain that Make doesn't, in fact, work.

I think Make is exactly what you want, and I do recommend it to everybody, since the default alternative is usually something heinous like CMake which isn't really an improvement. You want the bit of logic to create a "build system" out of Make abstracted into a library, and then it's perfect. I use this: https://github.com/dkogan/mrbuild/ but there're many other ways to do it
Assuming that the results of this research paper are correct, it provides faster methods for determining whether a number is prime, for counting how many prime numbers exist in an interval and for finding all prime numbers within an interval.

This could accelerate the algorithms that depend on finding prime numbers, e.g. breaking by brute force RSA signatures or encryption.

> How are you defining terrorist here as well? As other than the horrific events of October 7th, and the hostages from that day, the only visible acts of violence and terror associated with Palestine appear to be towards anyone Palestinian, journalists, aid workers and medical staff.

You can start with the large scale, multi year campaign of using MLRS ramps to shoot barrages of unguided rockets from Gaza and Lebanon into Israel.

That is indiscriminate - or even targeting civilians directly.

But because Israel has gone to extreme lengths to counter it there are few causalities these days and combined with medias extreme one-sidedness that means we don't even hear when they hit a hospital in Israel last year.

Cynically speaking, Iron Dome has been an expensive PR disaster for Israel, but that is what one get for caring about ones own citizens and not being allowed to just do counter battery fire until the enemy stops.

Ask HN: ChatGPT (LLMs) replacing programmers? Ridiculous
I keep seeing these articles and people confirming and re-enforcing as a fact that LLMs are practically replacing programmers. Including on HN, where I would have expected more common sense.

So I have a question, ruling out stupidity, what crack have these people smoked? So I'm not talking designers and journalists and business school types who don't know any better and perceive programming pretty much as fairy tale magic: just get a "magic ring", rotate it on your finger and say you want "a castle" and poof there it is. Not even a "genie in a bottle", who are renown for their predisposition to misinterpret your wish (in fact they are closer to how programming really works when taking the customer's wish and turning it into code).

So again, what sort of programming do these programmers program? The "ChatGPT is awesome cuz it writes code" type. Have they ever worked on a serious, large, enterprise code base? I get the feeling it's mainly fresh college grads who think "programming" is about writing sort algorithms.

Here's a thing: the main problem in an existing, large code base is reasoning. 99% of the time in spent in prostration trying to figure out what the fuck are you even supposed to do, why the fuck the existing system where you have to plug your addition is working like that and how the fuck are you going to acomplish integrating new stuff it if it's even at all possible.

So one word people: REASONING. It's ridiculous to even discuss ChatGPT "replacing" programmers or having anything but a minimal impact on the whole programming domain. Think of LLMs as a form of Google + Stack Overflow. Useful to fill some edge cases? Definitely? Replacing programmers? You'd have to be crazy to have claimed that about Stack Overflowback back in the day and yet it's exactly what people proclaim on ChatGPT.

So lemme disambiguate how hopelessly retarded it sounds when you say "ChatGPT will soon replace programmers coze all it takes is some 'prompt engineer' telling it to build the castle". It's precisely what in the old days would be phrased as "Stack Overflow will soon replace programmers coze all it takes is some drooling idiot posting 'can I haz teh codez?' on it, then copy-paste the answer".

Government is just a group of employees who work for the people. The people call on these employees to perform cleanup when outliers are compromising the wishes of the general population.

What cleanup is necessary here? If everyone didn't want to read email after work they'd simply not do it, of course! What is happening, though, is that most people do not engage in after-work emails and calls, but a small group of people are going "above and beyond" in an effort be more competitive in the workplace. This has placed the general population in a situation where they are feeling increased pressure to also go "above and beyond" to remain competitive alongside. Something they do not want to do, something they find a need to correct.

Let's face it, there are workers out there who have clear distain for other workers and left to their own devices will do all kinds of crazy things to ensure that they screw over the other worker sitting beside them out of a job. They will accept less pay, longer hours, unsafe environments, what have you just to fuck over the other guy. And if it means reading emails at all hours of the day to compromise their neighbour, they will do it! That's why we find labour laws of all sorts to quash such behaviour. This is just yet another instance.

You are quite right that the people often don't consider the unintended consequences, but they also have a problem at hand and government is the tool they know. It may not be the right tool, but I also don't see suggestion of what the better tool is. You can't use tools you are unaware of. It is no surprise the people are not reaching for whatever this unknown better tool is.
Addressing your first paragraph:

All reporting I've seen has made it clear that any movement of population in Gaza has been subject to IDF and more broadly Israeli control.

Every reported case I have seen appears to have been demanded by Israel, and the Palestinians have had no choice in it.

I'm not sure we're you think Hamas are involved in this at all?

It's all been forced displacements by Israel. And none of it has been willing. Where people have stayed and not moved often they have died, even with not the slightest involvement with Hamas.

Addressing your second paragraph:
Not quite sure if your point, but the numbers of deaths/casualties are broadly (my interpretation) seen as being as accurate as are available, and likely to be a significant undercount of the real number.

I have to say the continual questioning of, what by a number of significant indicators, looks to be an undercount of the total number of people deliberately killed by Israel, in such a short period is appalling.

It's highly likely that when we say 30,000 it's a wrong figure because it's 40,000 Israel deliberately killed.

If it's wrong and it's only 20,000 Israel killed it doesn't matter. They should still stop the killing.

My intuitive guess here is how the ports are connected to the T2 security chip. One port is as you said a console port that allows access to perform commands to flash/recover/re-provision the T2 chip. Same as an OOB serial port on networking equip.

The rest of the ports the T2 chip has read/write access to devices connected to it. Since this is an OS drive, I'm guessing it needs to be encrypted and the T2 chip handles this function.

Funnily enough, trait bounds are still a big pain in the neck to provide good diagnostics for because of the amount of things that need to be tracked that are cross cutting across stages of the compiler that under normal operation don't need to talk to each other. They got better in 2018, as async/await put them even more front and center and focused some attention on them, and a lot of work for keeping additional metadata around was added since then (search the codebase for enum ObligationCauseCode if you're curious) to improve them. Now with the new "next" trait solver they have a chance to get even better.

It still easier than providing good diagnostics for template errors though :) (althought I'm convinced that if addressing those errors was high priority, common cases of template instantiations could be modeled internally in the same way as traits purely for diagnostics and materially improve the situation — I understand why it hasn't happened, it is hard and not obviously important).

There is no explicit right to privacy in the Constitution. People have inferred that right from things like the third and fourth amendments.

But in any case, even if privacy was broadly recognized and protected (it isn’t, otherwise the government wouldn’t be allowed to buy your information from data brokers) that still leaves open the question at hand.
What was the code name for the AI that slaughtered 1200 Israelis and took hundreds hostage? What kind of decision making went into Hamas raping dozens of women? What kind of AI chose targets in Israel to rocket? One thing's for certain, humans no matter how "enlightened" can only take so much before they go absolutely postal. "Humanity" and "rules of war" go right out the window when humans are pushed too far. It was going on before this war and will go on afterwards. What, now that we have "precise" weapons, an all-out war of one country vs another will adhear to some kind of code of ethics? Give me a break. Dresdin bombings, Hiroshima, Nanking, etc etc civilians will ALWAYS get slaughtered 1000 to one in an all-out war.

> You are lying, Alexandre de Moraes used illicit instruments and acted against the Brazilian constitution, not just once, but multiple times

Would you please provide references for us that don't know this background?

> As a supreme court judge, he has unlimited powers and has abused it, and despite not being the only judge in the country, he concentrates everything related to Bolsonaro to himself.

That is not how it works.

I won't even get into the separation of the "Three Powers" (legislative, executive and judiciary): he shares "the power" with other 10 supreme-court judges [1], and he is not even the president of it!

Therefore, your comment seems off.

> Don't believe what the person above says, he's probably left-wing and supports the illegalities of the Brazilian supreme court.

That is an unfounded _ad hominem_ attack.

But let us present some facts:

* De Moraes is known for his conservative, and not left-wing, positions [2]; as a matter of fact, on Wikipedia it is written "Alexandre de Moraes sent armoured vehicles to suppress left-wing demonstrations."

* opening the tweet's author page [3], I get suggestions of Twitter of some similar authors, such as Tucker Carson, Robert Kennedy Jr. and Libs of TikTok; a quick scan of them show they are all conservative sources;

* opening the other tweets of the author [3], it is clear he is a conservative, defender of Donald Trump; let us remember that Donald Trump is an ally of Bolsonaro.

It is not difficult to put it all together and see those "files" should be taken with A LOT OF GRAIN OF SALT, to put it politely.

Also, it is widely known that Bolsonaro wasn't a great president, and that his supporters (and himself) intensively attack De Moraes.

Besides, what a bizarre situation: Brazil got two presidents impeached, and they did not make such a steer on the legal decision. But Bolsonaro is being investigated for his attempted coup d’etat, and instead of collaborating with the Justice system, he is attacking a Supreme Court's judge. That, itself, raises a lot of suspicion on both his attitudes and the news surrounding it.

Autoconf has never really made sense to me in the last twenty years or so. At what point does a Makefile-based project start thinking "hmm, we should upgrade to autoconf to solve this"? And what is "this" that they can't solve any other way? Seems like that point never occurs anymore. Either projects start with autoconf or they don't.

Well, that too. But corruption is "The use of entrusted power for private gain". It doesn't have to be personal gain, and it doesn't have to involve bribes. You just have to serve someone else over the public who entrusted you with power.

Even without the scandals of gifts to SC judges, there's much room for judges to be corrupt.
For a networked Time Machine restore you can reinstall MacOS without restoring first and then use the migration utility to restore from a remote Time Machine.

There's a good rundown of many relevant cases in different US jurisdictions here [0]. It looks like up through the date of publication courts were pretty consistent in ruling that digitally enhanced images may be admissible if it can be shown that they are accurate replicas of an original and the enhancement was only used to make things that were already in the image more clear.

In the case of AI I do think that that will be harder to prove, because there's no specific algorithm that you're following that can be shown to be unable to introduce misleading artifacts.
