Perhaps you don't understand how voting works? When the difference between minority in favor (not passing) and majority in favor (passing) is one person, then yes, one person has such power.

Democracy doesn't mean that the minority gets to overrule the majority when they feel like it. In fact, it is quite the opposite.
Helveticization, Comic CERNs, & Change: A Design Anthropologist on "Fontroversy"
Oof. I'm really not sure why companies keep releasing these mini coding models; 57.1% is worse than gpt-3.5-turbo, and running it locally will be slower than OpenAI's API. I guess you could use it if you took your laptop into the woods, but with such poor coding ability, would you even want to?

The Qwen2.5-72B model seems to do pretty well on coding benchmarks, though — although no word about Aider yet.

If only we had a data set that measured word frequency across the internet as we're getting more and more into AI being used... Maybe with a baseline from before 2021 for comparison... But no let's just stop measuring word frequency entirely because we can just assume what will happen and we're angry.
This is happening right now in Palestine and I'm pretty sure Israel is a capitalist entity.

JetStream was originally designed/built separately, but is now built into NATS. So that repo is obsolete. NATS with JetStream is here: https://github.com/nats-io/nats-server.
I think this is kind of a bad take. There have been plenty of "monster catching game"/"pokemon with the serial numbers filed off" games that have been somewhat successful, but no smash hits. "Cassette Beasts", "Nexomon" and "Temtem" spring to mind. From larger studios there has been stuff like "Monster Hunter Stories" and "World of Final Fantasy".

Palworld is really a "survival crafting" game and is closer to a game like "Conan Exiles" which has a similar gameplay mechanic of capturing slaves to put to work in your base.

What made Palworld stand out was the shock factor elements of "Pokemon with guns", "make pokemon work as slaves in a factory" and "grind up pokemon for meat", which streamers were able to convert into clickbait thumbnails and views.
Can you name a few services that do this for that price.
Amazing lol!

Though it is worthing that Nintendo is alleging patent infringement, not copyright infringement. IANAL (I Am Not A Lawyer), but that doesn't sound like they're going after the models used in Palworld, but more overall mechanics?

Possibly this patent Nintendo has for what seems to be "a thing the player throws at another thing to initiate a fight with it" (IANAL): https://patents.justia.com/patent/20240278129

Those rankings are of course heavily influenced by the methodology and metrics chosen. Differences can be very small but obviously even a very small relative difference results in a higher or lower ranking. That's how rankings work.

For instance, in this case: "The U.K.’s health system is the top one for affordability... In the U.K., the National Health Service (NHS) provides free public health care, including hospital, physician, and mental health care"

This does not mean it is 'better' or that others are in fact unaffordable.

For instance, in France a visit to the GP costs 30 Euros but 28 are covered by social security and private cover. Arguably 2 euros make no difference vs. "free" but it's just that you can beat "free" when ranking on affordability.

That being said, I think anyone with experience with the UK and other European countries' healthcare systems will be surprised, shall we say, with this ranking overall...
Damn, are you me? My thoughts exactly. My 13PM is plenty good. And with all the layoffs that keep happening, imma save that money.
I am thankful that we can expect fewer unexpected events now. Today I was saved from death at least five times because an automated traffic signal alerted me to machines hurtling dangerously in the wrong direction. I was able to push commands that halted my conveyance until the risk of death had plummeted.

I am also reminded of Dilbert's PHB decreeing that all future unplanned outages must be announced at least 48 hours in advance.

For those who aren't aware it's a 25% tarrif, so most manufacturers don't bother even trying to sell in the US. That's why almost all European/Japanese brand cars are 30+ years old over there.

I find it entertaining when my US colleague come visit and are amazed at all the options. I drive a new Toyota Hilux, and they weren't even aware they made them anymore. For a country that once prided itself on being the land of the free market capitalist, it's a shame the decision makers are so scared now of competition.

> Parents with their first child often have unrealistic expectations of development milestones.

This is a great point. There were several instances when either me or my wife (or both of us) thought something was wrong with our baby, until we consulted with our pediatrician, who would laugh and then calmly explain why we were jumping the gun. Haha.
Well for one, English is not my first language, so take it with a grain of salt. Also: when I use genocide as as a verb, it means there is a concerted effort to kill of a group of humans, that you happen to be a part of.

I know we live in an individualist society, but when you are murdered as part of a genocide that has nothing to do with you as an individual, which is a significant part of the horror of the whole thing. You are then murdered because someone thought you belonged to a group that should be wiped of the face of the earth. Whether you really belonged to that group, whether you share the ideology of the group or of those doing the genocide, wheter you are a really nice individual has nothing to do with it.

So I chose that word for a reason..
I had to witness my mother suffer through stage 4 gastric cancer before inevitably passing away. My grandma on my mother's side also passed from gastric cancer, and my grandpa on my mother's side suffered from complications of colorectal cancer though he fortunately survived it.

So if this story is true, believe me when I say with the utmost conviction that Mozilla is fucking evil.
You've been breaking the site guidelines badly in this thread, as well as using HN primarily for political battle over recent months.

I used to volunteer in a youth camp where some of the participants were blind. As a challenge, everyone spent at least a day blindfolded. Me as well, and to be honest, I got the hang of it relatively quickly. Within 4-5hours I could navigate the building, eat, go to the toilet etc. and my other senses got more keen. It was truly an interesting experience. Not all is bad. You might not know what it is like, so I suggest you try it yourself. Of course, you will need other people that see around you that day, but it will sure give a closer perspective to what your kids life might be.

Once in a while I still meet one of the blind kids from the camp (he is 22 now, he was 14 then) and I have to say that he is truly amazing. He echolocates, rides a bike, finished University studying law. went to US, learned English there. Now he wants to know Russia better, so he is going solo on the Transsiberian express. Just to see what it is like.

Best of luck!
You touched on it but I've experienced the same reading code when I knew what was intended by the code, regardless of who wrote it. I miss obvious but simple bugs because I only read what it is mean to do.

They already do that to some extent, actually. Not as you mention, but because of US export compliance laws.
What are you even talking about? C# has a famously simplistic GC which is basically one big, 1000 lines file. C# has very different tradeoffs compared to java, it pushes complexity to the user, making their runtime simple. Java does the reverse, having the language very simple, but the runtime is just eons ahead everything else. Like, call me when any other platform has a moving GC that stops the world for less than a millisecond independent of heap size like ZGC. Or just a regular GC that has a similar throughput as G1.
Monolith patented their nemesis system, so it went nowhere. The thought that we were one personal stance away from the whole FPS genre not existing is pretty chilling.
It looks like you know what you're talking about, so I'll take that as true.

Wasn't there a case I vaguely remember from the British empire though when they loaded ships from what was then Rhodesia with grain and dumped it in the ocean, to stop prices falling through the floor (while, in other parts of the empire, people where still starving)?
No need to jailbreak to remove pinning; you just need to patch the app itself (for example, by replacing the certificate it verifies against or the code that does the verification).

Exactly, like how "mindful" and "demure" recently became more popular for seemingly no reason. Humans do this all the time.

And language in general stagnates and shrinks in vocabulary over time ( https://evoandproud.blogspot.com/2019/09/why-is-vocabulary-s... ). (Link that ChatGPT helped me find :P) I think AI will increase the average persons vocabulary, since it appears to in general be better/more professionally written than a lot of what the average person is exposed to online.
A "puppet government".

This claim is based on... Them wanting not to be invaded?

If anything they had the foresight and took advantage of US companies not wanting to fab their chips at higher prices domestically. This has led to cooperation between the two.

I see this argument in some fashion every day, claiming US allies are puppets. When in fact, they just find commonalities and cooperate.
I'm glad prevalent behavior is to not use ad blockers. It turns watching ads a tax on ignorance, and lets that usage fly under the radar.

A whole bunch of folks here talking about your son, which is fine, because that’s what you asked about - but from experience with friends and family members with disabilities, and friends with kids with additional needs, the people who will need the most help are you and your partner, if you have one.

As I’m sure you’ve gathered by this point, a kid is a lot of work. A kid with additional support needs is a lot of work. I’m not just talking about physical labour, but emotional labour. It is hard to watch other kids develop “normally” and see your own struggling, through no fault of their or your own.

I strongly, strongly recommend that you seek therapy to talk this through with someone who knows the territory.

Help yourselves, it will help him more than you can know. You will also find that a good therapist with the right specialisation will be able to give you much, much better advice than us internet hobos.

Good luck.
Depends if you value your time more than minimum wage. There is certainly a time and a place for everything but I don’t really feel like being responsible for something that costs the $N a month managed. Sure I could do it myself but my time is worth more.

When you think about it, ideally most managed services have found some natural price for their services that helps make the above logic work. And if it does not, it might be actually overpriced. I suspect a lot of folks that say roll your own are undervaluing their time.

> In the UK you also pay insane taxes and your software engineers make a third of what they make here. At my big tech, as an IC5 I was making more than our UK Directors.

How strange. When I moved from US to UK within a FAANG I took a fractional pay drop and got an RSU topper. After leaving and working as a UK employee in an international org I make more than a lot of US directors. Perhaps the difference comes from the value you brought to the company?

One thing that is objectively true though is that, outside of the whinging from software devs in the 1% that no one really cares about, the outcomes and efficiency of the US system sucks compared to every other western nation.
Where I live health insurance is often provided by employer. Sometimes the employer opts to manage a separate pool of insured people - employees and their families. Such pool is fairly small so if one person comes down with an expensive disease the cost of everyone’s premiums must increase to cover that. Or the employer can just fire the expensive employee and thus keep the premiums low.
I respectfully disagree. I'm a mediocre hobbyist at best, I have cheap gear and use exclusively lead free solder/solderpaste without problems. The trick is to just use a lot of flux. I have a flux pen for hand soldering, and solderpaste usually has enough flux in it.

I have a couple of handicapped kids and definitely vouch for #1. When the first one was born, my wife agonized about whether we should spoil that child because of the handicap. My answer was resounding no. We would simply deal with it, and the kid would have to understand that there were certain limitations. This was tough for my wife, but she acceded. It worked out well.

speaking from my own experiences, linkedin does not seem to have any more introspective text content than, say, facebook.

from the commercial/influencer side, many have taken the AI route already by using LLMs to help write or spice up their posts. even for paid users, the site allows to help you write your bio or certain types of pieces for the past few quarters.

maybe the posts of the yesteryear and like the comments section seems like a "valuable" source for them really. although it would be a bit more scary if this is for video and photos too, although besides the headshots it has also been a lot of AI content in the tech space lately.
It feels like those with ASD who aren't severe are forgotten about, or maybe it's because I seem semi-"normal" I just tend to be hit with the "asshole" label for being clueless about whatever stuff normal people do that I don't. I am having tons of trouble now with job searching because I have no idea what to do, socially, to improve my network, and it seems like that's literally all that matters these days. I don't know if other people who are not severely disabled with ASD have the same problems as me or not, so maybe I just am an asshole!

Out of the examples, aerospace engineering was helped by many government interventions such as war-time buying and development of titanium working.

On the other hand, it's also hindered by government regulations making all new development much more expensive than what it could be.

I'd think all the industry segments would exist as the do provide clear benefits to everyone but the development paths taken could be different from what they're now.

I doubt this. I don’t have experience in India, but I have had lots of medical care in Thailand. Twice now Thai hospitals have found things that my US doctor and US imaging/diagnostic clinics missed. I can get MRI & CT immediately in Thailand, in the same places the doctor works. In the US I have to go to a separate clinic and wait weeks or even months. Cost in Thailand, at the most expensive private hospital (Bumrungrad) typically 1/5 or less US prices.

I also had great experience at public hospital in Taiwan, just walked in and asked for a test. Price was less than 10% for the same procedure in US, with no waiting.

And don’t even start on cost of prescription meds. Americans get scammed.

In the FAQ section of our health portal (https://www.terviseportaal.ee/en/kontaktid-ja-kkk/) it states:

> In Estonia, health information is gathered to the Health Information System, where your prescriptions and medical records are accessible to the health care professionals that provide services to you. The Health Portal enables you to view your data in the Health Information System, submit additional information, and change your personal data. You may restrict your health data if you wish. In that case, health care professionals no longer have access to your health information and the quality of medical care may be impaired, especially in emergency situations.

We take privacy very seriously. We can also see exactly who looked at our data, as there is a log of every person or institute who has done so. A little more is written here: https://e-estonia.com/i-spy-with-my-little-eyeprivacy/

Ultimately they still live in the country. They have ties to it. Their assets and wealth may be tied up in the country which is difficult to extricate. And, most importantly, their friends, family and life are in that country. It is absurd to think that it is so easy for people to just pack up and leave a country.
How the hell can you patent that. And it isn't even specific. That's just absurd...

aka, patents no longer "promote the progress of science and useful arts".

I think it's high time patents are reformed in the digital world. Things like game mechanics patents, design patents etc, ought to all be abolished.

Look at the fashion industry - there are no patents in clothing design. And they haven't collapsed; in fact, i think fashion florished more because of the lack of patents!

Even ignoring the security implications, fetching 11 kilobytes of script over the Internet every time you want to run this should feel like a bad idea to everybody.

Also, if I were to want to run this from my script, I likely would want to act upon its output, and would therefore prefer having functions that output the bare result instead of one function whose output I would have to take apart.
