But consider article 12: "No one shall be subjected to arbitrary interference with his privacy, family, home or correspondence, nor to attacks upon his honour and reputation. Everyone has the right to the protection of the law against such interference or attacks."

Defamation is such an attack, and something has to be done to protect them.

Also consider article 30 "Nothing in this Declaration may be interpreted as implying for any State, group or person any right to engage in any activity or to perform any act aimed at the destruction of any of the rights and freedoms set forth herein."

The right to free speech shouldn't be interpreted as the right to infringe on the rights of others, including attack upon their honor and reputation.
Yep, I saw the upstream[1].

However, I misread this: I thought the padding was being done on the cleartext signing side, but this is padding of the signature itself. So there's some malleability here, but it isn't susceptible to DO'1985. I'll update my top-level comment.

There are other advantages directly related to machines themselves, too. Power consumption and heat management alone can make a big difference for when things go wrong. Enclosures that are engineered for a finite life in a data center rather than lighting equipment on tour with a metal band are useful. (Given, if we're talking about Sun, specifically, I really can't fault their hardware.)
> The concept of title insurance doesn't exist in Germany

(Title insurance is where you must buy insurance when buying a house to guard against the risk that the house may have unknown liabilities or owners)

It doesn't exist in Sweden either, because the ownership of houses is in a central register. You can't make a claim against a house if it is not registered.

Funnily enough, there's no such register for condos in Sweden. So you can end up with a nasty surprise if it turns out you bought a condo that there were unknown bank loans against. But it doesn't happen often enough that there is title insurance against it.
> but there are certainly domains where Clojure is the best fit

Honest question: what domains?
My point is that "accuracy is not the question they're answering" is a fatal flaw that makes this research pointless.

Say I released a linear algebra library and extolled its performance benefits + ease of development, then offhandedly mentioned that "it has some concerns with accuracy" without giving further details. You wouldn't say "ah, he focused on performance rather than accuracy." You'd say "is this a scam?" It is never acceptable for healthcare software researchers and practitioners to ignore accuracy. LLMs don't change that.

The only thing that sort of cynical laziness is good for is justifying bad decision-making by doctors and hospital administrators.
Yes. I assume you've studied statistics too?
There is also a brutal and inflexible exit tax. Should you decide to leave Germany, even temporarily, you will be faced with a tax of ~30% of the current valuation of your worldwide shareholdings (in companies in which you have >1% ownership). I commented on this in more detail in another post a while back:

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39786934#39788110

In the author's case, because he is using a holding company, his exit tax burden will be doubled!

I have chronic insomnia that got worse every year. Eventually I stopped being able to sleep without being absolutely exhausted, usually after 35h or more awake hours. Almost drove me crazy. Paranoia, auditory and visual hallucinations, extreme touch sensitivity, you name it.

Lucky, modern medicine pretty much saved my life. (trazodone, which was combined with mirtazapine a few years later.)

I later was diagnosed with ADHD, and after medication I find it a bit easier to sleep (although I still need the other to have consistent sleep). Biggest problem was my brain just wouldn't shut up (and got noiser and noiser the longer I was awake.)
Interestingly, last year, Canada introduced tax credits to support the clean energy technology sector [1]. Its "total over $60 billion over the coming ten years" [1]. But there is also some actual money in the same package.

So I wonder, what the thinking of the government is in deciding when tax credits and when direct subsidy.

Many of the big EU grants are very broad, so you can bring nearly any project and argue your case.

Sure, certain things increase your chance of acceptance, and those don't always align with industry needs, but the same can be said about any funding source. It's not like VCs are known for wisely allocating money according to industry needs either. What matters is giving enough projects a chance and letting the market solve the rest.

EU grants do have other issues and are difficult as your sole source of money. But I don't think funneling everyone away from industry needs is one of them.

2 ^ (1/2 * Log2(X)) = sqrt(X)

You can get a really really rough approximation if you replace Log2(x) with 'count leading zeroes'. With a better approximation of Log(2), you can get closer to the answer.
> There are ways to ensure the correct transfer of ownership without involving a third party. You can see these principles at work on some trading platforms already, be it for Magic cards or something else where parties cannot trust each other because they do not know each other.

So what else is that "trading platform" then, if not a "third party"?

The way in which this problem is solved is by introducing a third party that is trusted by both, seller and buyer. There's nothing wrong with this principle. What's wrong specifically with regard to notarys as a third party in property sales in Germany is that the amount of work involved in being this third party does not really scale linearly with the value of the thing to be transferred, but the system by which the price of the notaries' work is determined assumes that a property transfer is twice as laborious (and thus must be twice as expensive) if the property is twice as expensive as some other property. Which is BS.
There are plenty of other forms of companies than LLC which people can use.

With an LLC, the company is only liable with the capital that it has, and if it has none, then it can scam people with impunity (there can be criminal charges if there's outright fraud, but you won't win any money in a civil case against a company that scammed you, if the company has no money).

Fun math in action here: these two broods emerge every 13 and 17 years, respectively. Those two numbers are coprime, so their least common multiple, the next time a multiple of one will coincide with a multiple of the other, is 13 * 17 = 221, which subtracted from 2024 is 1803, when Thomas Jefferson was president and the previous time the broods emerged in the same year.

> No minds are "put in jails".

I got banned from my city's subreddit because I said something once about crime the mods disagreed with. Now I can't enjoy a platform about the city I live in. I can't ask about restaurants, talk about concerts. It's frankly troubling.

I posted something to /r/conservative once that asked them to be more inclusive of trans people. They banned me on sight, which figures. From that moment, I've been auto-banned from several trans and liberal spaces for posting in /r/conservative. I'm LGBT and my partner is trans.

This authoritarian censorship is toxic and pervasive. It's just not right. Stopping the flow of ideas is how the pressure valves stop working. It's how polarization deepens and is how our democracy ends and authoritarians arise.

You can block me all you want. You can subscribe to a list of HN contrarians to filter forever. But you have no right to filter me from other people that don't willfully subscribe to your banlist.

Lock yourself in your house all you want. You can't keep me from enjoying the outside public [1], from meeting people in the public, or from me seeing and meeting other people you've locked out of your house.

Apartments meaning noise issues is an issue of the American implementation of capitalism resulting in construction that doesn't prioritize how nice it is to actually live there. Similar to how the users of a product aren't the ones paying for it. Eg Microsoft Teams. If the incentives were different, the housing would be better constructed and not have noise issues.

I have some (imperfect) sense of how sharp I am at some time, or am likely going to be in the near future, which influences when I tackle tasks.

Algorithm that must be correct? It's not going to be working through that first thing in the morning, nor squeeze it into the 30-minute gap between 2 meetings. And hopefully it doesn't have to be done on that day I didn't sleep well, because I can tell I'm not at my best.

When something that needs hard thinking must be done right then, I can do it (and probably still better than most people, if it's something I'm good at). But I often have the feeling that I'd be thinking of more possibilities, or not making "careless" oversights, were I not fatigued or distracted.

Occasionally, I've pulled off some of my most meticulous work despite being fatigued. But it felt like more exertion than it should, and presumably I wasn't spotting all the opportunities that I would've under better conditions.

That said, as someone who doesn't blog, I don't much filter my more casual, off-the-cuff Internet posts by sleep/sharpness. Actually, Internet posts are more likely to be a morning warm-up, or a break between tasks. Maybe, if Internet posts paid better, I'd start optimizing sharpness for them.

Oh I’d swear when I read the article it said it was a civil case (I assume I misread?) - in that case the cut and dryness of guilt (where guilt is criminal) seems more interesting.

In that case maybe the employment contract was presented as evidence that they knew they were not permitted to engage in this kind of trade, to undermine a “I didn’t think this was wrong” defense? But yeah criminal vs civil does change things a bit.

Citations needed. Jon Stewart is in a place to speak on the impact of AI to his industry, considering he is an industry expert (he has what, 30 to 40 years in Hollywood. That makes him an expert of screenwriting/acting. You only need to know so much to then comment on the impact of AI on your industry. Further, we don't know his personal experiences and the data he is looking at. Let's also take into account recently there was the largest strike that was largely about AI. Given how long that lasted, we would think that there was a lot of extra research done on the topic. Further, Jon was wanting to do a series of segments about AI on his Apple-hosted show. He has a history of researching his topics. Given that history, I would guess that Jon Stewart actually knows quite a bit about AI at this point. He is not a fan-boy though and so that knowledge wouldn't show through him gushing about LLMs)

The mistake I see is we are applying Jon Stewarts comments to the software industry. Perhap that mis-application is due to recent biases from things like Devin. Mr Stewart OTOH is really more speaking about the impact of AI to the acting industry, his industry, for which he is an expert. Jon Stewart historically brings the receipts, he routinely researches the topics he speaks about. If you recall, he was in the habit of reading the books of many of his guests. Based on that history, I would flip your comment on its head.
Germany and "digital" payments have a history due to old reasons.

We don't appreciate its meaning anymore, but cash is literally the only anonymous payment method you can have in this lifetime, and people in Germany tend NOT to trust any entity/company/government holding your data for no particular purpose.

The downside of this is the split brain problem that you have with distributed systems: a state knows something about you that another state maybe doesn't, which leads to "interesting" things like illegal people having multiple identities in several states, etc. Weird s**.

> If you want to reduce knowing "proper use of tools" ad absurdum,

I'm just stating how a logical fallacy works. Adding conditionals to the No True Scotsman Fallacy, still makes it a fallacy. Albeit a more convoluted one.

> Sure and do you know how you get that to happen? You have them RTFM or at minimum skim it so they can understand the tool and construct their mental model in alignment with the tool when they are learning how to use it the first time.

And I noted that sure for an obscure tool, used by few, it's fine. Not when it's used by millions, if not tens of millions, of developers. As you scale up in popularity, your reliance on RTFM is less and less excusable.

If for nothing than else, just for a fact that rather than making your CLI easier/more consistent, you are just forcing mass of developers to learn ins/outs of your program in essence rather than making a good UI/mental model that serves you fairly well, you waste X hours times number of developers using it.

E.g. imagine, for instance, that rather than making your screwdriver easier to grip (your screwdriver is just a shank and a blade), you make a manual for the screwdriver that says, "Hold screwdriver with a wrench for better leverage and/or grip".

> Is it not common for projects to insist on submodules for dependencies they want to heavily modify instead of just forking the dependency into it's own repo, doing development for the forked dep there, and then just tracking the fork with the submodule?

The few projects that used submodules definitely didn't use it like that. One used it to point to a version of code that was stationary, that was the less problematic one, but it caused problems with other tooling.

The second was a project that used dozens of submodules, and they were very recursive, very deeply nested and various active branches, pointed to various other git submodule branches. It was a nightmare to change branches, and switching branches turned into a chore.

> Oh sure but the point is that complaints about subtree are not complaints about git.
> If not, why aren't they using a subtree merge instead?

How is it not a complaint against Git? Git is distributing for better or worse those tools. If Git started shipping malware in its distributions, should I just let Git devs off the hook because it was donated by a phisher prince?

Also, you can't recommend Git subtree merge and then insist subtree is not a complaint about Git. One or the other.

Finally, my criticism of Git's model points towards the failings of the Git inner model that people have managed to paper over with lots of effort. I.e. file-based Merkel tree VCS will get you far, but partial checkouts, commits and binary files are places where Git starts to lose ground to different abstractions.
