The simplest way to figure out the current court is to apply a “Republican Party” filter before any judgment is applied. Texas arguing against adhering to treaties? Texas wins. New York trying to give air passengers the right to not sit in a hot-boxed airplane for eight hours? Sorry blue-staters.

The court tends to attempt to narrow the scope of these party-first decisions, but it’s clear that they’re playing for party above country or sanity.

After that, the court is a mush-mash of deeply thoughtless polarized opinions, resulting in the senseless goat rodeo we presently have, but it’s much easier to figure out who will tilt which way after you apply the party filter.
The thing that bothers me is... golang actually has exceptions. It is just that nobody will dare mention it. Panic and recover eh? It is just that by default error is the thing you should use and everything and everyone does. Then the exception mechanism comes along and you now have 2 ways of handling errors. Making things quite confusing.

Leaving Neovim for Zed
I spent hours trying to delete old Sony and Rockstar accounts to no avail. I was trying to delete these so I could delete an old Google account. The Google account is held up because I can’t delete or change the email on the other two.

I might expect this from some fly by night companies, but not from some giants. Sony having been hacked several times already, I find this unforgivable. Rockstar sent me into captcha hell, having to solve 20 at a time over and over again. I did the 20 about a dozen times before I gave up.

I don’t really know what to do at this point. It shouldn’t be that hard to delete an account.

I'm a bit confused on the use of word non-invasive in this context.

I was under the impression that non-invasive meant no cutting of tissue. Even if ultrasound separated the cancerous tissue from the healthy tissue - how would the surgeons get it out of the head without cutting into the skull? I also thought some surgeons used diluted hydrogen peroxide irrigation for removing potential neoplastic cancerous tissues post excision?
Shrink your market. "Problem" is too open-ended. You can't possibly make effective software for all things.

It's definitely a mixed bag and the ergonomics are rather shit due to the use of Pin<&mut T> everywhere, which requires as_mut() to reacquire mutable references for every (mutable self) method call - it's madness. There is also a lot of boilerplate in C++ and Rust to bind everything, especially since Cxx-qt bindings are very minimal. It didn't take long to figure out how to write my own and eventually generate them with Claude using Qt documentation but some core features like Rust getters aren't implemented yet in the core library so there's some stuff missing when writing custom QObjects.

Writing models has been surprisingly easy but there are still lots of annoyances like having to use QVariant to store everything because properties that refer to other QObjects must be raw *mut pointers. It's only taken a few hours each to write my models including a filesystem tree model. At this point I've got several examples of Rust models and C++->Rust conversions that I feed to Claude and it can easily write models from scratch or convert C++ models in the wild to custom Rust ones.

Sadly I haven't taken notes (I should) on my experience so far so my thoughts are rather disorganized. All that said, I've got instant hot reload of all the QML bits and I don't have to write C++ code with complex lifetimes so overall it's been a win.

Then I find this to be a totally unnecessary addition to a claim that they've replaced frontenders and testers with LLM. Of course no one is safe if they've actually achieved that (with no proof given) so obviously Indian programmers are not safe. Neither are east european ones, Indonesian ones, or American ones for that matter. For the (unsubstantiated) claim that actual humans have been replaced.

It's like Tesla creating a full self driving car (level 5) and ending the promotional video with "Not even rickshaw drivers are safe". Just fluff.

My daughter's school gives all the kids ipads and she got a new one this year. The IT guy gave it to her before locking it down so she installed all the dumb apps she wanted on it before handing it back over. The point, aside from how proud I am of my daughter, is that kids are going to find a way to get what they want. This is an arms race. It'll be interesting to watch.

This seems a bit disingenuous. To people with a bit of understanding of cybersecurity, they are admitting that they haven't solved it; but to most of their customers, it will sound like they fixed it and are being cautious.

That solar is not perfect and not as effective as nuclear, which actually easily produces energy surpluses whenever needed and can provide the energy that is required to mine it. As opposed to solar, which still relies on fossil fuels due to the minimal adoption of nuclear, while also introducing its own environmental impacts.
No source code, “private use only” EULA, whatever that means.
As a german, I cannot speak for the situation in other countries, but Germany handled nuclear energy really poorly, especially the waste[1].

7 months for a Python build? That's brutal. What was the root of the problem? Deps, codebase size, or something else?
Edge cases can be addressed by allowing for law enforcement to appeal to a judge for an extension. The burden of proof should be on the the party that has taken your stuff, not on the person who's stuff has been taken.

>vagueness is a feature not a bug.

A feature for who? Where's the evedence that law enforcement being able to keep your stuff indefinitely benefits the public? The default must be that your stuff belongs to you, unless the police can convince a judge that in this specific case there's a good reason not to do so.
I thought this was an obviously ridiculous statement, and then I looked it up. In many of the last 25 years, civil asset forfeiture outpaces criminal burglary in total losses.

What? That is actually an everyday concern and devs assuming that information is not needed will bring pain down the road.

Just two cases of the top of my head: working with databases and json interop with other systems that actually do differentiate. And the second one should not happen, but people do make assumptions and sometimes those are inherently incompatible with how golang works.
Laws already attempt to encode intent through technical word choices, scoped definitions, and careful construction. Judges and lawyers attempt to discern the intent by careful reading and logical deconstruction.

When the lawmakers and judicial interpreters are good at their jobs this works great. Good lawmakers draft good laws that are clear in their intent. Good courts make good decisions by applying reasonable interpretations of the law.

Bad lawmakers fail to make their intent clear. Bad lawyers take advantage of vague laws to argue for unreasonable intent. Bad judges let these bad arguments fly.

How does encapsulating the "intent" into its own section of the law fix the problem? Bad lawmakers will still write vague intent sections as well as poorly defined implementations. Bad lawyers will abuse the vague intent sections to argue for exceptions and novel interpretations of the implementation section. Bad judges will let this fly and warp the system further through bad precedent.
this literally a perfect example. your idea of NK is based mostly on reporting that is biased, propaganda, etc. and here you are mocking people who doubt any of that. lol. im not saying NK is secretly good but i think you would discover a lot of things that you didnt know. especially regarding how things got the way they are.

Re: the last link: this is not why surveillance prevails on the Internet.

It’s an economic problem not a technological problem. Surveillance driven advertising became the business model of the net because people don’t pay for content online. That left advertisers as the only true customers, and companies and ecosystems grow toward and around their customers the way plants bend and stretch toward light.

Making the Internet more secure would not have changed this. Surveillance is built into consumer technology directly because advertisers pay more for access to people than people pay directly.

Advertising is the primary force behind this. Government driven surveillance is secondary and really just piggybacks on systems created and sustained by the ad and PR industries.

One of the things you learn as an older engineer is that a lot of stubborn technology problems are stubborn because they are not technology problems. They are socioeconomic or political problems. Privacy online is one of these.

The only way I see this changing is if people change their buying behavior and start demanding privacy, avoiding insecure products, and being willing to pay for it.

Also the creation of musak can be done by much more wider amount of people and requires less studying. Like driver I we requires less studying than driving a black cab without GPS.
it's all good until that thing that happens at American schools, happens... That is my one hang up here. It would be idealistic to believe that the Police would protect kids, but in reality there are far too many cases of them being grossly negligent in this exact circumstance... in many of those cases, having a phone played a pivotal role in security. I don't want to get too far into details on HN for the sake of keeping things civil, but I hope you catch my drift.

Im sure there is some happy medium solution here, like putting your phone in a basket or cubby or something like that, at the very least. But I think this is something that has to be seriously addressed and considered. Phones are obviously bad for all of us, more so for children whose minds are far more elastic and far more prone to social alienation. The endless stream of notifications is almost at a gambling / casino level. I think you have to address the root cause of that as well
Okay, then think of it from a strictly quantitative viewpoint. Euclid's proof of the irrationality of root two was known circa 300 BCE. Mathematicians would have to wait until 1670-ish for the math to be invented to understand the proof of the irrationality of pi.

You can say it's obvious today to a high school calculus student, but the elapsed time between understanding of the two proofs is about two millennia.
That's kinda hilarious though.

Also a nice example of when security through obscurity is harmful. "If we show a picture of a keyboard instead of taking text input, that'll stop the hackers!"

Earlier you wrote "Let's invent a new programming language that tells its users that the amount of time for which they hold memory should be "reasonable", without getting into specifics."

This is essentially what Python-the-language does. It does not require reference counting, or mark-sweep, or any garbage collection at all. The language specification says at https://docs.python.org/3/reference/datamodel.html#objects-v... :

"Objects are never explicitly destroyed; however, when they become unreachable they may be garbage-collected. An implementation is allowed to postpone garbage collection or omit it altogether — it is a matter of implementation quality how garbage collection is implemented, as long as no objects are collected that are still reachable."

That subjective language specification is quite different than its objective implementation in a Python implementation, which appear to be what you refer to now.
Also "tackle" is too wide. Is the goal to discuss it? Come up with schematics? A design doc? A poc?...
I’m fascinated by optimization but I get lost on the state of the art, since it’s usually extremely dense and reliant on you being super easy with symbols and complex abstractions (in other words, a full-time mathematician).

The vagueness is a feature for law enforcement but a bug for the individual. Real life doesn't not have time caps. How many days can a person go without food, without a livelihood, without his property that supports his existence? There are time caps for each of these things.

Imagine if prison sentences didn't define the duration of the sentence, and it was left to the prison to keep extending the duration beyond a defined limit.

Great explanation, never knew this was possible
IANAL, but I don’t think they are supposed to. They decide the case in front of them: 14 months is too long. And give some insight as to why and what the might be in other cases, but that’s not authoritative.

This is simply not true. HFS+ and APFS supports hardlinks, resource forks (why do you think streams was even added in the first place?) and HFS+ has Catalog and Attributes file (which was what was used for quick search before Spotlight). Also, Everything also creates an index like Spotlight for faster search. APFS also adds support for quotas. NTFS transactions are deprecated as well.

The few things that could have been listed against HFS+ is no sparse file support, dates can't go beyond 2040, or even no nanosecond precision. Even being more susceptible to corruption than NTFS. Regardless, APFS has since replaced HFS+ and surpasses NTFS completely while ReFS is still limited in support and usage and bootable support is still being worked on in Win11
Coal and gas is "what we always did", which sounds like the dictionary definition of the word "conservative" to me.

Apart from that, at least in the context of German politics center-right ideology is "help the companies and everyone will prosper" and center-left ideology is "help the people and everyone will prosper". And with the amount of corruption evident in the center-right party that's morphed into "help the companies the high-ranking politicians are close to", which includes multiple companies heavily invested in coal and gas and few with serious commitments to green energy.
Now I wonder if such a compiler could exist in theory. I think VLIW vs "on-the-fly reordering to extract ILP" is similar to AOT vs JIT, in that there may be runtime exclusive information that's crucial to go the last mile (and x86 might process µops instead). But PGO does exist and could work similarly in both cases to bridge the gap, no?

Note that I vaguely remember having read somewhere that EPIC isn't "true" VLIW (whatever that means), unlike what you can find in some camera SoCs (e.g. Fujitsu FR-V).
How would you enforce this without invasive surveillance?

How could a teacher check that school mode is on without gaining control of the device? How could they ensure that the mode isn't turned off when they aren't looking?
I always find those criticism hilarious. Glass with his "sold out" style made more innovation in WCM tradition than pretty much anyone else in 20th century who lived before him, except perhaps Schoenberg who came close to his levels of iconoclasm. Once you're that good and creative, "you sold out" stops being a valid criticism. Bach would poop out a cantata weekly for the church he was a Kapellmeister at, because his job was to write music for the church for people to listen to during various ceremonies. That's not selling out, that's just working for money.
I suggest another study, albeit very hard to do: what if Germany have chosen de-urbanisation, observing that in the denser Nederland 81.3% of citizens live in homes not apartments, like in Belgium (77.6%) or France (62%) pushing a nation-wide program to build new homes (meaning "A class", well insulated, air-tight, with good windows, heat-pumps for heating, cooling and hot water) etc modeled as a State run real estate exchange a classic home against a new one, with some constraint like:

- similar size, more allowed but at citizen expense

- build in a locally hydro-geologically stable place (meaning a flood/landslide can arrive nearby but not in the home)

- only offered for PERSONAL properties, or SME enterprise direct property, not allowed to be rent for 5 years at least after that bonus

Obtaining as a result a sharp decrease in winter consumption for heating, summer consumption for cooling, and a bit of renewable to shift a bit of load AND a bit of semi-smart grid meaning a classic "low tariff" with pilot wires for appliances like hot water heater etc that in a new home could run a bit independently from the heated water usage?

IME, having built a new home, I can state a mean of 1/7 to 1/10 overall consumption compared to an old one, meaning at large an enormous reduction in energy consumption and a bit of semi-autonomy allow for less urgent intervention in case of service issues witch in general means much lower costs and easier evolution for the service side. Aside building resilience and what we damn need for future evolution.

A small notes for those from USA: in UE there are no USA-style suburbs, meaning even in spread living homes and commerce are normally mixed, so you normally do not need to travel much for anything, and you don't need to go to the nearest city for anything because anything is actually spread like homes. Cities on contrary are MUCH more dense than USA, to the point is practically impossible re-building simply because the construction site would disrupt the surrounding circulation in such impacting ways to be doable only in case of collapse risks.

A last note for all: so far many state cities cost less than living spread but there is NO REAL STUDY on that topic, especially for MODERN cities (buildings built with elevators, HVAC, ventilation, fire and seismic safety, energy performances etc etc etc not classic "just a set of stacked boxes and some stairs"). IME and IMO having done some very basic computing a MODERN set of small homes consume less alone than an equivalent building of apartments and urban infra around (sewers, drinking water, electricity, roads) cost LESS as well for spread areas where infra a smaller instead of having to sustain density.
My only bit of advice would be: definitely give a preview of the content to be expected. I clicked around trying to find an example of the type of problem people would post, but all I could find was a sign-up button. This is like asking for money before showing me what I am actually paying for.
