> Yes. Because they don't value human life as much. That's the point.

No, that's begging the question. I'm providing a different interpretation than yours, based on reading experts on the Eastern Front.

I explained the tradeoffs, and I know you read my explanations. You cannot simply ignore them.

As an aside, in my opinion you're implicitly making an entirely unsupported assertion: that most of those lopsided Soviet infantry deaths were caused by minefields (since you provided it as an example). Unless you can support this with some references, I'll be skeptical... especially since it contradicts the stated opinion of someone who actually was there to win the war: Zhukov.

> [re: "trolling"] Taking pride in shocking westerners with your recklessness.

I'm sorry, who do you think is/was "taking pride in shocking westerners"? Zhukov was reckless in order to shock westerners? I don't follow what you're saying at all.

> Notice how when it was politically beneficial - soviets waited for over a month on Vistula river bank while on the other bank Polish resistance was securing passage and fighting Germans.

It was politically and strategically beneficial from the Soviet point of view, yes. That uprising was discouraged by the Soviets and it wasn't a Soviet-led operation, so it doesn't seem to have much to do with those alleged "human wave attacks" or "not valuing human life". Can it be criticized from other points of view? Sure, but it doesn't support your main point.

To be fair, a writing a ray tracer forces one to learn more about a language than just Hello, World!
Yeah, the piping to bash is a tried and true method for various installers. People make a fuss about it, but we don’t see people getting owned that way often. I think with bash installers though it’s pretty trivial to just visit the link and read through the 100 lines of bash. So anything installed this way should be as simple as visiting the link and reading a short amount of code imo
Arguably virtually free porn on the internet would seem to make individual production of porn dramatically less valuable while 20 year sentences make unethical tactics like that more dangerous and less worthwhile. Conversely banning legit porn would seem to make it more valuable and whilst it wouldn't make it less dangerous to get caught it would create a subculture of somewhat ethical people doing marginally illegal but not immoral things in which bad actors could hide. Also those looking to make some of that presumably increased money could intend to engage with this semi legit subculture and end up dealing with one of the aforementioned bad actors thus increasing the chance that people end up trafficked.

Age verification probably wouldn't even do this. What would most likely happen is that it would drive more traffic to increasingly less legit sites and make real regulation impossible.

Noting the difference in humility between someone that has made the cut to participate in the IMO (6 people per country) and the multitude of retrospect prophets that trivialize the DeepMind achievement.
I’m wondering the same. Maybe it’d be easier if we could upload our own ‘sequential program’ to a little CPU inside the GPU that would be code making calls to the real GPU. This way delays to native GPU code would be minimized and we wouldn’t need to mimick creating new features / GPU paradigms
Everyone pirated IDA as a young reverse engineer, that's just a rite of passage.
This exemplifies a transition from "strawman argument" to "strawman dressed as a clown argument".

It being in "beta" is a perfect reason to excuse bugs if it doesn't work in Firefox. But, they went out of their way to build in a system to say "go away" if you're not using Chrome.
In the case I faced, the person also had good non-anonymous performance feedback from colleagues, but in 1-1s their collegues shared they were afraid to contradict them because of their aggressive demeanor and how convinced they were they were always right.

But let's assume this is not the case and the director is really mobbing them. In that case, I'd first go directly to them and ask them plainly what they are saying about my performance and why? You might be surprised at the results (and also point both sides at Radical Candor).

But if that does not work, and you've tried going to HR, their superior and their peers, and none of it helped, the only obvious choice is to leave (why stay at an org like that?) if you can afford it (at one of my previous jobs, I confronted the director myself, who ended up agreeing with me but still promoted another person over me for very dubious reasons — when I felt I was being devalued, I've moved my value elsewhere).

Basically, if it is a situation where one is not being recognized and there is no obvious way to fix that (talking to them directly, their superior, HR, their peers), the most reasonable thing is to leave
> Why would a type ever own another type?

FHIR, an international standard for medical data, is a great example here. The circular types get so gnarly that I've personally managed to infinite-recursion the TypeScript compiler. We even managed to get 45min builds followed by a timeout by sneezing wrong.

The tldr is that you can have things that belong to things that belong to things that end up belonging to the original thing after a very very long inscrutable chain of pointers. Essentially a graph.

So cool. Love seeing this novel pivot of HN data. Just confirmed that my comments are well embedded by testing a few topics (longevity and mouse biology). Privacy issues not a concern for most academic researchers (we typically beg for PR), but I can see that this might contribute to more cautious wording.

I left Twitter right before it became X, and focused on HN as a “breaking news and commentary” that is mercifully free of politics.

This tool fills a discovery gap.
Most of companies in the world are not pension funds or F500 or that company in the article - my take is that it is misguided also to label "one single company owner takes all" because that is not true.

Most of companies in the world are mid to small size companies that cannot survive 2 years continuous loses without taking a loan to pay their employees. Those loans are not "mortgage rate" like 2% but more like 20% and it sinks those companies quite a lot.

Most company owners are not Elon Musk or Bill Gates or Steve Jobs as people would like to imagine and unfortunately most of arguments I see are like 99% of company owners would be flowing in riches like ones mentioned ... just to remind Steve Jobs died of cancer and all the money he had did not help him (like Walt Disney who is frozen /jk)...

In general, we should be quite careful when discriminating groups of people. Pricing things different based on where you're living isn't unheard of - if you're an American visiting India for a few months, what would be the "right" price for Netflix - but can be problematic
Think about a collection of one related type on another, such as Customer -> Accounts + Account -> Customers. In banking, it is possible for one customer to have many accounts, and for each account to have many customers.

OOP will let you express this kind of problem from a data modeling perspective (List<T> on each type), but from a serialization and dependency perspective you have to pick a "winner". In banking, it is unclear which type should be king.

The relational approach is to use a join table. Model the actual relationship itself and its relevant attributes (role on the account, beneficiary %, etc). This also handles any arbitrary graph of accounts and customers, assuming you are using a modern database engine that supports with recursive & cycle keywords.

ORMs will blow up on this kind of thing without special handling.
Well yay for science. Asking for a friend: Does this also apply to sports cars?

Bike-share works extremely well here in Tokyo. I see people on the red Docomo bikes every time I go almost anywhere.

For cargo, people generally pay for a delivery service if it's something too cumbersome to carry. In large cities like this, people don't buy a month's worth of groceries all at once; they only buy as much as they can carry.
As an aside, it's really kind of nuts how much backing and investment the Communists have received from the West, including Wall Street, all the way to the Russian Revolution, and continuing to the present day.
Fair enough. Although I think the question is whether P3/P5 were given zero points vs not evaluated vs evaluated but not published. I don't think it is surprising that Lean-verified proofs get a 7.

Sentience is irrelevant. Deliciousness is the only relevant metric. Being able to provide a quick, relatively painless death is a bonus but not a requirement.
I know this is a ludicrous way to provide an option to the user instead of just putting it in the UI, but:

- View->Options->Change folder and search options

- Enable single-click, then on the View tab, enable "use check boxes to select items"

- Then Regedit...

- HKEY_CURRENT_USER/Control Panel/Mouse

- Set MouseHoverWidth and MouseHoverHeight to 0, or increase MouseHoverTime.

Now you have single-click without hover-select, and checkboxes to select.
Also, love the username. My last initial is G as well!

Show HN: Unofficial Cloudinary CLI in Go
I've released an unofficial Cloudinary CLI written in Go, leveraging the official Cloudinary SDK. The original Cloudinary CLI is written in Python, which is great but can be cumbersome to set up and manage dependencies. I created this Go-based CLI to offer a simpler, more efficient solution that is easy to use and fast.

Features:

- Image upload support: Easily upload images to Cloudinary.

- Specify upload presets and folders: Customise your uploads with presets and folder paths.

- Filter by file extensions: Specify which file types to upload.

- Process entire directories: Upload all images in a directory with a single command.

Check it out on GitHub. :)

unpopular opinion, I think constexpr and similar are anti patterns. if you want to memoize values, run a separate script to do that. a computation is not and cannot be constant, this is just some sugar so that people can pretend it is.

The only reason they are firing people is so that they can rehire at cheaper cost.
Leave we are going to start shelling that location tomorrow isn’t a declaration of war, it’s a threat. What happens afterwards can vary quite a bit, rather than your simplistic understanding of how the world works. Starting a war when the country was in the middle of a total economic collapse was hardly a viable option for Russia at the time.

There’s been 2 recent wars between Russia and Ukraine without any nukes involved. Nuclear bombardment of a country on your border isn’t such a great idea of a whole host of reasons.
Most people used a cracked old version of IDA. I actually just used the freeware version, which was ancient and didn't come with any decompiler. Which was definitely difficult, and people having access to Ghidra for free these days is definitely a lot better!

You're being intentionally ignorant, so I'm not even going to bother responding to this stupidity.
I agree with all of this, just my objections was to claiming the consideration being "the salary you already agreed to in order to sign your employee agreement" would not work therefore the token $20 amount.
I already addressed this:

> Billionaires tend to steer the economy toward vanity projects.

Musk's only meaningful contribution to SpaceX was money. We could just have raised NASA's budget instead, but we didn't. There are lots of things that we need to spend money on. Space is not our top priority.

Musk, however, is independently wealthy and can spend his money on whatever he wants. So he spent it on rockets, as a vanity project. Yes, some useful innovations came out of that. But what was the opportunity cost? Was this where the money was best spent? I have no reason to believe so.

So… going 25 years back in time and forgo any online shopping ? Or your argumentum ad antiquitatem should only apply to porn ?

Everything as a first.

> In general, if you're embarrassed to tell someone else what you're doing you probably shouldn't do it.

That's an absolute insane take. Different peoples have different morals values, not wanting to broadcast your personal life as nothing to do with "embarrassment", and a lot of time, more about your safety.

Should people don't abort because they don't want to tell everyone about it ?

Communists partitioned Poland in 1939 together with Germans. War would take a different direction if they didn't join Nazis. They were not really the good guys.
Interesting there aren't any Android developers here. I develop for Flutter so I do both and Google is a pain to deal with. Once they kicked my app out of the app store because the month currency overflowed to the next line which was 'misleading'. Plus anything Gradle related is a pain to deal with. It's not quite as bad as what the author suggests though. Apple is OK, once your app gets accepted which may take a few tries.
I think that was the op's point.
Awesome work environment for one person can be not ideal for another.

Pretty much all the top AI labs are both intensely competitive and collaborative. They consist of many former IMO and IOI medalists. They don't believe in remote work, either. Even if you work at Google DeepMind, you really need to be in London for this project.
Hybrid app developer here (Apache Cordova). The work that I do is pretty close to web development + some hooks into native code (which is done by plugins) -- so your skills should transfer pretty readily.

The only headache that Donn eludes to that I've experienced had to do with Android's scoped storage. It's taken them a few tries to get it right, and their documentation hasn't really provided good best practices, so I've had to roll with the punches a few times. But I really haven't had to deal too much with Donn's other points.
I’m sure it involves fluorine or the like somewhere.
Huh, I wish I'd known about this. I tried to chargeback something from a scam company I mistakenly ordered electronics from who never delivered. I'd paid using a CashApp debit card, and when I disputed it they permabanned me from CashApp.
It might be reasonable to call AlphaZero “goal-seeking”. The DeepMind people are actually working on stuff that can cope with diverse environments and pursue open-ended strategies.

That’s not what anyone means by “AI” in this context.
It seems endemic with embedded devices. Only big customers get the true list of errata, and of course the errata are random PDFs rather than a useful format. Even just having them on an ftp site with all the errata in one spot would save so much pain!

Well it is not clear from my initial post but I do propose daily or whatever else than just "every SeCoND BecAuSE we NeeD iT NOW!!!" but people that are clicking the system right away expect stuff to happen "right away" - and any amount of explanation does not work.

Bonus points for trying to explain you want to implement "eventual consistency" - keep in mind I have added {“real time” (not going into details what real time means really)} in text to indicate that I am not some junior whining around but someone with deep understanding of computing...

Additional note on the ‘there is not one single PFAS’ - there are several million distinct PFAS compounds.

Some are in wide use, some unclear, some unused. With a wide variety of elements in the various compounds.

It is like saying ‘plastic bad’. Which plastic? What is the definition of bad?

Yeah don’t eat plastics, but the difference between styrene, PTFE, and HDPE on any axis one would care to define is crazy big.
You should have more concerns than that - there is a good chance that this will get blocked by the Supreme Court given some of their other recent jurisprudence around regulatory authority.
Afaik the import sets the module in the importing module's context only after the code in the imported module is run.

Edit: Oh, you don't mean in the importing module's globals, you mean `sys.modules`. Yeah that works!
This is cool.

Now that we have LLM models we should really investigate going back and forth between model based representations and text based representations, i.e. allow people to edit both and see the changes reflected in the other.

We write model based code all day, but probably 75% of my time is spent dragging things around and making them look pretty with no net change in the final generated C code. Can't skip that part of the job because the whole point of a model is to make the code easy to understand, but it seems like a good application for an AI.

The article skates over the loathing traditional Fleet Street press had for Murdoch:

In 1969, he stepped into the British media market, buying The News of the World and The Sun.

Mr. Murdoch acquired The Times and The Sunday Times in Britain in 1981, controlling a bigger chunk of the British media market.

He was regarded as destroying from the inside quality investigative journalism and replacing it with Tits 'n Arse page three girls and celebrity driven clickbait.

It's not that he invented either, he just weaponised the approach and took it to eleven. And then some.

Dennis Potter's final interview ripped into Murdoch, he revealed with glee how he'd named his growing tumour, the cancer that killed him, "Rupert".

It's probably less likely to work because people often use alts to participate in discussions that they wouldn't want to associate the primary identity with. Whether that be discussions about their employer, about politics, or something else, the subjects an alt particulates in will likely be different.

Style works because few people are capable of fundamentally altering their style even if they tried.
I believe the poster was saying two things separately:

1. This issue is not some precursor to the caldera becoming active - it is a irregular but normal part of areas with geysers.

2. If a geyser, hot spring, etc starts looking different, acting different, or there is an unexpected explosion run away from it quickly. The negative effects will be localized so distance is helpful.
There's a huge difference here: you would have a very, very difficult time finding anyone who identifies as a vegan and also eats meat knowingly and willingly. However, Christians who don't fit your definition of "true Christian" are a large part of the US voting population, so much that the "No True Scotsman" fallacy seems to apply here. Even worse, if we look at Christians over the last two millennia, especially during the middle ages, the vast majority of them don't appear to be "true Christians" according to your definition.
Uh? Why couldn't a computation be constant?

constexpr auto size = 4;
constexpr std::array<int, size> arr = {1, 2, 3, 4};

So.. just use a domain. This seems like a nothing burger.

When you write macros, you're working one meta level up, since you're writing code that generates code (that generates code etc, but one level higher than usual).

From a user perspective it's different. Macros are more limited; not first class and can't be passed around and called like functions.
That's what I say when I'm out hunting humans TBH
