The court previously provided those guardrails. With Chevron deference, the agencies could clear up ambiguities, but the court could reel them back if they were found to be unreasonable. Now, there is no check-and-balance; the entire power resides in the court. In the words of Justice Kagan, that is "judicial hubris."

If the court makes an unreasonable interpretation, the only mechanism to rectify it is for Congress to be explicit. This has multiple problems: first, getting anything through Congress is becoming increasingly difficult. Secondly, the Court already admitted that laws will always have ambiguities because Congress doesn't always have the expertise to be that explicit. From that standpoint, the Court has claimed a power while acknowledging there is very little in terms of a check on that power.
No, the act undertaken in exchange for the bribe would be under the immunity umbrella but the act of taking the bribe would not.

You cant seriously be suggesting we should keep gluing new things onto the legacy code base until the end of time without ever considering a full rewrite?

But to somewhat address the sentiment: We can replace the machines and keep the line operators.

edit: Not sure now, should the government be considered the people running the country or the formula?
Ask HN: How do you find a "boring" tech job?
I've worked at startups as an engineer for several years now and I'm sick of it. The stress vs. what I get out of it isn't worth it anymore, and it significantly impacted my health in the process. I want a boring job with boring tech at a larger boring company with stability and predictability. I just don't know where to begin looking. How do I figure this out?
Maybe we should all move to Mexico then, I'm sure the government won't mind, so long as corporations get to do whatever they want
I keep seeing this argument pop up about “should Obama be prosecuted” like it’s some sort of “gotcha liberal!”

And as a liberal I think “hell YES he should be prosecuted!” The government shouldn’t just go around killing citizens without due process. I don’t care what letter is by their name.
Cheap goods and no middle class with discretionary income is also incompatible. "Buy now, pay later" will only last so long.
I mean, this isn't outside the norm. Most government employees and officials either elected, appointed, or hired generally don't have personal liability for discretionary acts of their office under the principle of qualified immunity.
Fisker’s issues include false AEB activations, among other safety issues [0]. While Tesla build quality has always been questionable, Fisker’s issues have sometimes been showstoppers that leave owners in potentially life-threatening situations. Panel gaps won’t kill but, but faulty AEB will. I think the cybertruck faulty accelerator pedal is the only thing in recent memory with a major safety issue for Tesla.

If Trump gets elected, he will never give away his power easily.
I guess you need to look at it from the point of view of least unrealistic exaggeration ;)

Maybe by some measure this "3D" approach might be more efficient per square foot since the conventional flat panels are basically a 2D capture solution.

Plus it sounds like there are multiple photosensitive layers within the sphere which might be theoretically capable of more thorough energy recovery, perhaps turning reflective panel losses into internally reflected sphere gains.

Or maybe adding to more output per square foot at least.

They're in NYC, if you can't build out, build up ;)
Anything beats GPT-4 nowdays to be honest.
Dennett has walked that path before. In “Consciousness Explained,” a 1991 best-seller, he described consciousness as something like the product of multiple, layered computer programs running on the hardware of the brain. [...]

Quoted from rom https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2017/03/27/daniel-dennett...

Regarding the multiple layers: the most interesting thoughts I read about theories of a mind, are the books by Marvin Minsky, namely: The Society of Mind and The Emotion Machine which should be more widely known.

More on Minsky's ideas on “Matter, Mind, and Models” are mentioned in https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/1981/12/14/a-i

Ask HN: Blogs of developers building startups solo?
I love reading about the life of developers who are building startups solo. No team. No funding. Just developers earning money by building products.

Very cool! I’m well-versed in the portable arcade cabinet space—I built one a few years back [into a rugged hard case](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UJyR60wn1Ec). To accomplish this, I used a removable arcade joystick assembly.

Still, wouldn’t have worked with full-size cabinets ;) Kudos on the great work

Except that impeachment requires acts of Congress. The SC opinion was explicitly clear that the president is immune from prosecution for ever issuing a pardon. So the president could order the military to capture or kill any representative or senator likely to vote for impeachment, and pardon everyone involved. There would be no remedy through the courts, because those who carried it out were pardoned, and the ruling also makes it explicitly clear that ordering the military to do something illegal is also an official act, so the president is immune from prosecution.

So a president determined enough to prevent impeachment could avoid it as long as he or she were able to find a large enough group within the military willing to go along with it.
This was an obvious outcome, the government always protects its own. The government class gets immunity from the bottom, cops and judges, all the way to the top, legislators, and now, the president.
are you referring to a particular EM modeling software or codebase?
> It's not quite "copy and paste this component". When I google "typeahead react" the 1st link is a pretty popular npm package that seems to support everything I want (and some stuff I didn't even know I wanted).

> it's more like "which framework is easier to blindly stumble through (with ChatGPT's help) to get what I want".

I understand the sentiment but tech-wise it's a good thing that it's harder to do.

The other way would have you installing a (probably large) dependency, of which you'd use perhaps use 10% of its capabilities, expecting a response from the server that you might not have, and add more custom CSS that you'd have to wrangle together with your own styling.

Which might be fine if it's just you and you understand the tradeoffs, but if it was a team of 20 people each of them would do the same thing and the app would grow by accretion. Not just in size but in complexity. Which would necessitate more build tooling, more tests, maybe even changes to infrastructure...

Cobbling together things like that, while fast and fun, isn't necessarily great engineering. Sometimes we all have to do something quick and dirty, sure, but being forced to take a step back to think it through isn't a bad thing.
They are irrelevant for the question of this thread. No human can observe unobservable things by definition.

Protecting free speech has been the ideology of democrats for ages. The Free Speech Movement was fought by those on the left side of the political spectrum.
Map of the Money
The ruling says that 3 of the 4 indictments against Trump can proceed so long as prosecutors make a case that the President was acting outside of his duties.

A president being incompetent or immoral in his line of duty is an issue for voters or congress to decide on. But a White House bogged down in lawsuits or petty criminal charges would cease to function.
It is, frankly, moon logic. The President is commander-in-chief, ergo, they are immune from prosecution when issuing an order to the military, even if the order is illegal? Because the Constitution says the President can issue orders and doesn't say anything about whether those orders need to be legitimate or justifiable in any sort of national context? Repeat for the Justice Department, or Immigration, or any of the many offices that fall under the executive branch. Apparently if the President is insane, or corrupt, or treasonous... that's a problem for all of us, but not necessarily a problem for the President.
To give the majority opinion its own voice:

> The President enjoys no immunity for his unofficial acts, and not everything the President does is official. The President is not above the law. But Congress may not criminalize the President’s conduct in carrying out the responsibilities of the Executive Branch under the Constitution. And the system of separated powers designed by the Framers has always demanded an energetic, independent Executive. The President therefore may not be prosecuted for exercising his core constitutional powers, and he is entitled, at a minimum, to a presumptive immunity from prosecution for all his official acts.

Well my point was that if you're starting off by writing tests, AI assistance is low-risk: the test code should be simple and concise enough to review very quickly. So you're not blindly trusting.

Tests also tend to have a repetitive and clearly defined structure, an environment that AI thrives in.

(Also, devs usually find writing tests boring, while AI never gets bored.)

And once your tests are in place, if desired you can then get AI to write the actual code too.
Do you really want this kind of thing to be speculated to be possible? The court should be putting the squash on this kind of thing full stop, not giving any wriggle room at all. The fact that you have to argue that a supreme court justice is speculating on the downstream effects of a monstrous decision should tell you something is very wrong. Step back and think for one second.
You can't have any tech news without there being new stuff in tech to begin with, and you can only have new stuff in tech if tech workers/entrepreneurs are free from the danger of arbitrary expropriation (that has historically accompanied all autocracies).

could this impact the exemption from liability for user posted content?

"Section 230(c)(1) of the Communications Decency Act protects social media platforms from liability for harmful content posted on their sites by users"

If the social media companies claim that their choice to show or not promote or censor user content is free speech, should that speech still be exempt as if they had no control over it?
There has been research on the intersection of IoT and PQ signatures specifically at least, e.g. see "Short hash-based signatures for wireless sensor networks" [0] [1]. Unlike SPHINCS+ which is mentioned in the article, if you're happy to keep some state around to remember the last used signature (i.e. you're not concerned about accidental re-use) then the scheme can potentially be _much_ simpler.

> In Obama's post-presidential book he lamented about the same thing in 2008, that his voters were placing their hopes of all sorts of change on him

I wonder why they did that. It's almost like he built his entire campaign on the promise that electing him would bring hope/change.
It is still in development AFAIK. They did an announcement, but no news on the actual release yet
This is exactly why I would hands down always prefer an electron wrapped application over a web app if given a choice between the two.

This is even more important if the app uses some kind of proprietary project file format, since if the website goes down you won't even be able to recover your project (without heavy reverse engineering potentially).

> It is hard to think any other company that is not of Google's scale would be able to create their in-house source control system and complete a migration

But it is easy to think of a company that is of Google's scale failing to complete such a migration, wasting years with many projects not being able to migrate and then ultimately having two systems that everyone has to sync between. That they actually succeeded at doing it instead of failing is the impressive part.

That's correct; I cannot prove a negative. You're making assertions that something is happening; you should support them. Your evidence for your positive assertions has been drastically lacking.

> FACT: India is not a ‘90% Hindu state’.

The state in question, as you felt was important to note ("Modi’s BJP govt is central govt. This is happening in Tamil Nadu."), is Tamil Nadu; https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tamil_Nadu#Religion_and_ethnic... cites it as 87.6% Hindu in 2011.

> FACT: India is not run by a ‘Hindu nationalist government’.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bharatiya_Janata_Party is widely enough considered Hindu nationalist as to get "Its policies adhere to Hindutva, a Hindu nationalist ideology" in the Wikipedia article on it.

For a man who talks so much about wanting to protect the legitimacy of the court, Roberts has done more than anyone in recent history to destroy it. In the best case, Roberts will have brought about the end of SCOTUS in its current form as a reaction to the blatant illegitimacy and corruption he allowed under his watch. If the US survives the next couple decades, the Roberts court will be talked about in the same light as the 3/5ths decision.

I don't like this. It looks like nothing I've ever seen. It will make transition to real languages difficult.
One might question how that standard applies to what Israel is doing in Gaza.
It absolutely says that.

A President, if they act in an "official" capacity, cannot later be charged with a crime for something they did in that official capacity. Not "can offer being an official as a defense", "cannot be charged".

What is an official capacity? Well there's the traditional stuff like vetoes, appointments, and the like, but there's a lot of stuff that is far more nebulous. Does the President act in an official capacity when telling the Vice President what to do with regards to certifying an electoral college result? Well, if that's official, Trump has to be more-or-less let go for what happened on January 6th.

We are now basically saying that it's up to a judge - who may or may not have been appointed by the President in question - to decide whether something was an official act. If it is? Welp, sorry the President's wanton order violated your Constitutional rights, but no trial.
To create lift with a symmetrical airfoil, you are going to need a non-zero angle of attack. You can see the effect of a varying angle of attack on a symmetric NACA 0012 airfoil here [0].

The following plot shows the pressure distribution over a wing at 3 different angles of attack [1]. As you can see from the first plot, some lift is created at -8 degrees AOA, but clearly a lot less than the +10 AOA example, as that airfoil is optimized for positive angles of attack.

You're not looking at this from a DevOps perspective.

In real-world cloud environments, logging into the container and expecting to have a complete Unix environment to poke around in just isn't an option. You might not even have the required permissions to do so, as a matter of corporate policy. You need to build observability directly into the application -- or you haven't built a complete cloud application.
Their harsh IP stance would have made sense if they were also constantly innovating. They just weren't. You were paying a premium and facing litigation for tinkering with a better branded Kubota.

>If not, it's policing then it's under the judiciary authority, not the president.

Wait, what? Executive branch pretty explicitly encompasses enforcement. The Justice Department is part of the Executive branch.

Unless by "Judiciary authority" you meant the Justice Department, and not the Judiciary branch of the federal government, and by "not the president" you were very specifically discussing the semi-independence the Justice department has from the president.
