I'm in Europe so I'm not having an "identity crisis" either. My views on the US have long been somewhat mixed, but there's definitely a "I thought you were better than that" feeling. Our friendship with the US was always a bit mixed and there were ups and downs, but this feels like a "I don't know if I can ever trust you again" moment. Or at least, it will take a long time to rebuild the trust.

Basically this:

"A Trump victory will be akin to the moment in an unhappy marriage where the spouses are arguing again and one hauls off and hits the other. It might not mean that the marriage is over—but it’ll never be the same. Both partners will have learned something hard about what one is capable of and that will inform their future interactions forever."
> Because they're not. It's virtually impossible to start a meaningful new party in the US due to the FPTP system, so you are stuck with whoever the two legacy parties decide to nominate according to their own rules.

I just see no appetite for a 3rd party, much less nine in the US. It was amazing how people would complain that Harris provided no details about her plans, when 15 minutes on her website provided more detail than most people would care for (although certainly not at the level of detail any wonk would want). Do you think people are really going investigate nine candidates?

> Most people selected out of the telephone directory at random could have beaten Trump. No, this probably doesn't include Pete Buttigieg.

Given that every Republican can't seem to beat him there must be some odd bias in the phone books you have.

> These two sentences contradict each other.

They don't. We got who we wanted -- we just aren't happy with it. And wouldn't be happy with anyone. No contradiction.
You still think the news is real?
We would have it if Republicans didn't bend their knee to Trump in 2016. We'd have Democrats, Trumpists and Republicans. But Republicans didn't want to become a third party so they let themselves get completely consumed by Trumpists in exchange for letting them keep the branding.
> It was a massive abuse of government power.

I completely agree with you. Not sure which part of my post made you think I support lockdowns. I don't. And that's my point. GOP governors did not lock down, and even in blue states where they did, many Americans ignored them.
There's always the hope that the average voter can find their way to a considered, moral vote. That didn't happen.
"Drop the 'gpt'. Just 'Chat'. It's cleaner"
You're absolutely spot-on!

I've been organizing LAN parties with my friends for 26 years now and around 2010 to 2016 was the time when games became so good that stopped making sense to upgrade in-between LAN parties.

- Left 4 Dead 2

- Killing Floor 2

- CS:GO

- Grid 2

- GTA V

- StarCraft II

plus nowadays there's stiff free competition, e.g.

- Rocket League

- Brawlhalla

- Dota 2

- LoL

but also from OpenRA, which modernizes Red Alert.

Plus, it's challenging to tell based on screenshots if you're looking at Assassin's Creed III (from 2012) or Assassin's Creed Mirage (from 2023) and there's been 7 !!! other Assassin's Creed games in between.

And looking at the Switch, I'd say the situation for new games is brutal. There's lots of evergreen games with great replay-ability and thanks to the cartridges you can easily borrow them among a group of friends. It's been a while since I last bought a new one because there just wasn't anything different enough from what I already have and like.

My biggest wish for the Switch has been that it'll one day drive my screen at 144Hz to make movement smooth. And it looks like Nintendo is going to deliver exactly that: More powerful hardware for the same old games.

I wonder if Nintendo will also eventually be forced to implement a subscription model and/or if they will start to aggressively push older games without updates out of their store (like what Apple does) because otherwise I just don't see many openings for developers to build a new Switch game and make the financials work. Currently, you're competing with a back catalogue of 4,747 games, so good luck finding anything where you can stand out by being better.
> What was their failure here? The failure to explain to the economically illiterate that while inflation is now about where it was prior to covid that prices won't be going down (unless there's some sort of major recession leading to deflation)?

When is over-communication on the problem the team needs to solve ever a bad thing?
Not everyone who is registered to vote actually votes (as in they do not mail in their ballot nor do they go in to physically vote). Which is I think the more likely case here.
It's ironic given pre-acquisition under every Elon Musk tweet the top replies were always crypto scammers. Hopefully this time YouTube fix the impersonation stream but it was up for a long time during/after the last launch.
Cursor works amazing day to day. Copilot is not even comparable there. I like but rarely use aider and plandex. I'd use them more if the interface didn't take me completely away from the ide. Currently they're closer to "work on this while I'm taking a break".
> There's also a huge difference between the government banning content and private entities banning sale of that content on their platform but OK.

A legal difference yes, but not a political one.
Discrete gpu can easily add 20-40w of idle power draw, so that's something to keep in mind. I believe that 60ish watts is pretty typical idle consumption for desktop system, Ryzens typically having 10w higher idle draw than Intel. Some random reviews with whole system idle measurements:

It’s not just fun, but the least offensive way of establishing hierarchy, which is required to form a group, in men. They ask you who you are. A reference to some rule (e.g. what’s acceptable) is by definition a confrontation. A refusal to position yourself in a group, which is tested/offered by poking a person, makes you a questionable element in it. Yes, all this is mostly pointless in a modern life. But that’s how an average hunting-age male works.

The attributes and reasons do not matter in isolation. They will find where to poke even if you’re a twin of one of the group members. Red hair is just the obvious one to use.

The alternative is going to the office, filtering thoughts in your mouth and reporting slight misspeaks and inappropriately timed eye contacts to a special manager who then decides who’s higher in hierarchy according to some rules.
I used to use it much more before I knew about Photopea. For non-professionals like me, PhotoPea has the extra benefit of not having to install an extra desktop software just for very occasional use.
I've found that the shop talk communities end up with stronger bonds and generally more real friendships vs office friendships which are very weak.

It makes me think it's a somewhat innate way to foster relationships. It definitely seems to break down walls. I've come to learn that the more a group roasts you the more they like you.
What could the Democrats have done about it? Inflation was successfully reduced back down to normal levels without a recession, successfully managing a soft landing. What else could they do?
Nah the nissan leaf was released about 15 years ago. Electric mobility was a proven use case years before the release of the roadster or model S. It wasn't the paradigm shift that the iPhone was. (and I don't have any doubts we wouldn't have gotten to an iPhone experience a few years later, either. I used smartphones before the iPhone with touchscreens, less smooth and intuitive, but already had miniaturized mobile-first apps based on touch. Android was released a few months after iOS and had been in parallel development for 5 the previous 5 years prior to iOS being unveiled...)

Tesla accelerated the electric car market several years, that's for sure. But nothing more than that.

The most important development for the feasibility of electric cars has not been automotive innovation (not the powertrain, the motor, the wheels, the interior or whatever), but battery innovation.

And battery innovation (i.e. cheaper, lighter, more capacity, better heat management, better durability) has been ongoing regardless of automotive even existing as an industry.

This has been the driving factor for the electrification of cars, not any one car company but the battery industry. Tesla simply was the best first mover.

As DevOps/SRE type person that occasionally gets stuck with builds, Monorepos world well if company will invest in the build process. However, many companies don't do well in this area and Monorepo blast radius becomes much bigger so individual repos it is. Also, depending on the language, building private repo is easy enough to keep all common libraries in.
I never got this line of thinking. I'm already disincentivized from spending because simple investments are likely to outpace inflation. That's a good reason to save as much as I can, but I still buy things, and it's not like I can put off buying food for a year so that prices drop. What's so different about this incentive to save and it being a part of the economy?
I believe there is still more vote to count, so the absolute numbers may still increase dramatically, but your point on party affiliation is definitely on point
ChatGPT's name was always an albatross: OpenAI didn't expect the original ChatGPT research demo in November 2022 to go as megaviral as it did, but once it did it was too late to give it a more business-friendly name.

It wouldn't surprise me if they eventually rebrand ChatGPT to just Chat, Justin-Timberlake-style.
Even if recounts or whatever showed the results were changed they would be challenged in the courts until eventually Trump's supreme court would hand him the win anyway.
I always find interesting the issue regarding PC gaming on the rise, because in the Iberian Penisula game consoles never were that big.

We grew from the 8 bit home computers, lived through 16 bit home computers and settled in PC gaming.

Nintendo was mostly about those game & watch handhelds, naturally SEGA and PlayStation became relevant, replaced by XBox and PlayStation, but always on the shadow of PC gaming.
But what is the response that works?

Average: I can't afford groceries at the store. Inflation sucks.

Response: Well, inflation plays a part, but grocery stores are still recording record profits despite inflation.

Average: Are you suggesting grocery stores shouldn't make as much money as they can? Free market hater! Communist!
Yeah I guess it's a response limit. It makes it a deal breaker though.

Yeah playing emulated Switch games is a much better experience on a Steam Deck than it is on the Switch. Nintendo is in a weird spot now because the competitive landscape is much different.
> Did we have to know as much as back in the 70s, 80s and 90s? No, not at all but that is advancement and not necessarily watering it down.

We need to know much more now than ever before, as the number of treatments performed on scene has grown enormously. Not to mention survivability is orders of magnitude better.
It has advantages but I don’t see UK, Germany and France thriving.
If the internet disappeared tomorrow, I’d save Alex Hormozi’s sales advice. His content on sales is like a survival kit—he emphasizes that mastering sales is a skill that keeps you secure no matter what. As they say, if you know how to sell, you’ll never go hungry.
Incorrect. The Wii is far more similar to the Gamecube than the WiiU.
I didn't vote for Trump, but I would welcome the migration of people with this attitude to Europe or anywhere else.

No absolutely right.

This old school form of campaigning on issues and policy are just redundant in this day and age.

Trump just showed us the speed of the current media cycle. Its minutes or hours. Democrats and all "rational" styles of electioneering on "issues" and "policy" are doomed to fail agains Trump style content. Trump can insult or harm so many voting groups in a day, that people are completely exhausted and then just blank it out.

If Biden did the same thing, it would result in the same electoral outcome, it would not cost the dems any more votes. People would just be exhausted by Biden, and then blank him out too. Then it would be whatever default placeholder people like to think about when they think "Presidential candidate", and would then vote without having to worry about what they were doing.

Its honestly insanely amazing. Its like we have been doing politics wrong since the Greeks.
OK, you're doing Trump has 7% more votes than Harris. Which is valid -- I think that's not the way most people report it though. I think most people say that Trump won by 3.5%.
They completely ignored the crypto vote, while both RFK and Trump pandered heavily

They never listen and are just encased in their chrysalis where everyone’s a joke to them if you arent automatically about the party lines
Things that most people care about:

- Will I still have a job in 6 months? If I lose my job, can I get by?

- Can I continue to afford groceries, rent, utilities at the current pace of inflation?

- If I have a major health problem, will I be ok?

During an election, you can either harness the fear voters have around these issues and turn them into hateful energy against the other side (Trump tactic) or you can calm people's nerves by acknowledging the problems and providing a path to deal with them (Obama tactic). Obama was able to confidently appeal to voters on these issues and he brought them to the fore-front throughout his campaign. Obama was charismatic as well, so when he talked about these issues, you got the sense that he could competently provide that protection. He was reassuring.

I voted for Kamala, but I didn't want to. She possessed none of those positive qualities. She didn't instill confidence. Her voice and demeanor made her sound annoyed. Her fake smile made me cringe. I wanted an authentic candidate that could make me feel safe. She was not it.

Lastly, those primary issues were shrouded by gender politics. I would like transgender people to feel safe and have access to resources they need. I would like women to have access to abortion when it's necessary. These are not things to run a campaign off of though. EVERYONE feels the pain of a bad economy; that should've been the primary focus all along and we needed a STRONG candidate to really drive a strategy for addressing it. I just don't think Kamala was able to make any headway in that respect and I think that's why she ultimately lost.

Donald Trump had 74 million votes in 2020. As of right now, he's nearly at 72 million. To me that says he hasn't necessarily gained new followers. That's a good sign. It seems the Dems have lost millions however. That's a very bad sign. It's pretty clear then that Kamala did not represent what voters really cared about during this election cycle.
Pretty much this.

DNC forgot that in polls, the American electorate prefers a bigger 1/4 lb hamburger to the smaller 1/3 lb one.
"Finally, adjusting the flight’s launch window to the late afternoon at Starbase will enable the ship to reenter over the Indian Ocean in daylight, providing better conditions for visual observations."

From the linked article.
Awesome. OpenAI will eat this market.

Called it a couple weeks ago → https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41884821.

Some still think "OpenAI has no moat", keep on beating that horse, lol.
That assumes that Trump is a rational actor when it comes to these sorts of things, and I'm not sure we can rely on that.

The question is how much of his leaving-NATO rhetoric was sincere, and how much of it was empty threats to try to get other NATO countries to devote more money toward defense.
Keep in mind that there are other products that fulfill the same need. This is essentially just novelty branding.
He's not said anything like this though:

"there's an insidious dark force at work, it's brought us down from our glorious past, these groups of people are involved, violence against this threat is understandable, only a few men are strong and capable enough to lead us out of this...".
Finally, adjusting the flight’s launch window to the late afternoon at Starbase will enable the ship to reenter over the Indian Ocean in daylight, providing better conditions for visual observations.
You have to find some good in all things and I think this is the most likely good. Other countries and continents realizing it's time to move on from America and start to stand on their own two feet.

I'm really tired of American being the center of everything, especially after this fiasco. It would be nice if it was a more progressive country for a change.

By progressive I mean, a country who believes in climate change, renewables and nuclear and women's reproductive rights.
Saw reducto released benchmark related to your product: https://reducto.ai/blog/rd-tablebench
Curious your take on the benchmark and how well midship performs
Yeah, same here. Even if I know what I am doing, sometime I learn something new or a new way to approach something. Sometimes not. But then hey, free advice is worth what you paid for it.
You (and people like you) are way too bold to allow yourself to speak for "the world" or for "the EU". As a member of the world and the EU, I'll say that I personally never wanted for my taxes to be spent to prolong this war. Moreover, if it turns out, as you suspect, it all can change on a whim of a president of the USA, it logically follows it never in fact was "the world" or "the EU" who decided that in the first place. It definitely wasn't mine decision, and I'm pretty sure it wasn't yours.

In fact, it won't even really be the voting citizens of the USA who make any decisions, because when red/blue splits 50/50 it isn't "tyranny of the majority" anymore, it's tyranny of luck.
I would take that as a compliment, big fan of Zed (I hope their extension ecosystem allows for us to plugin sidecar into Zed soon)

Tbh I did try out their implementation and it still feels early, one of the key difference we went for was to allow the user to move freely between chat and editing mode.
Democrats don’t control the price of groceries, and even what they can somewhat control (inflation) improved massively. Trump will also not bring down the price of groceries, so either voters don’t care about that or they (completely incorrectly) blame Democrats for it. Either way, I don’t see this as the Democrats fault.
I don't think it's a sound argument. You're greatly underestimating the ability for power to coerce and get people to fall in line with enough carrots and stick, and eliminate those that don't.
Not sure he really cares about the country - but I guess you can be glad.
Most of the demographic made out to be a "boogeyman" ie normal people, recognized DEI as "a license to hunt Republicans".

If you're a normal person and some random intern with a 10% non-American accent probably in their early 20s calls you from some random number greeting you by your full name and says they're a part of some polling company you wouldn't recognize even if you'd heard of it before, are you going to confess in the slightest to them you intend to vote for orange cheeto man who is like literally worse than mustache man from WW2?

Probably not.
The media and the party had many opportunities to deal with Biden's age. They didn't. And yes, they did shut out Dean Philips, on the basis of exactly this kind of "he's an unknown, therefore unelectable." Well, they went with a known, and now they're paying for it.
I've been paying close attention, found various hints at anandtech (RIP), chips and cheese, and STH.

It doesn't make much difference to most apps, but I believe the single CCD (like the 9700x) has better bandwidth to IOD then their dual CCD chips, like the 9900x and 9950x

Similarly on the server chips you can get 2,4,8, or 16 CCDs. To get 16 cores you can use 2 CCDs or 16 CCDs! But the sweet spot (max bandwidth per CCD) is at 8 CCDs where you get a decent number of cores and twice the bandwidth per CCD. Keep in mind the genoa/turin EPYC chips have 24 channels (32 bit x 24) for a 768 bit wide memory interface. Not nearly as constrained as their desktops.

Wish I could paste in a diagram, but check out:

https://www.amd.com/content/dam/amd/en/documents/epyc-techni...

Page 7 has a diagram of 96 core with one GMI (IF) port per CCD and a 32 core chip two GMI ports per CCD.

That's a gen old I believe, the max CCDs is now 16, not 12 with turin.

I think it reached "so bad it's good" status. If they had launched with a more typical silicon valley name like Gemini then I don't think it would have become the generic term for a chatbot among non-tech people.
It was an adult "chat" site: https://web.archive.org/web/20230101040501/https://www.chat.... (NSFW)

Though it looks like they were already trying to sell the domain: https://web.archive.org/web/20221208222423/https://www.chat....

Historically, it was owned by CNet's download.com (remember that?) and it redirected to their chat apps category.
and "Roll Credits" in CinemaSins

One thing they deem to be a movie “sin” is the fact that movies will often have a line of dialogue in which they'll say the title of the movie. Whenever a movie does this, the CinemaSins Narrator will exclaim “Roll Credits,” as though the title of the film can only be mentioned in the absolute last line of dialogue.

https://popculturalstudies.wordpress.com/2018/01/18/in-defen... highlights some examples.
The Soviets, not specifically the Russians.

Soviet puppets here got kicked out in turn back in 1989, and not obviously due to any help from the Western side of the Iron Curtain.

My commute takes me across the old line of the Soviet attempt at enforced isolation.
They should be worried. Bad governance is bad. But people do want something to be done about ease with which children can access pornography online. A solution will eventually be imposed if the industry doesn't clean things up.
To beat a dead horse, the working class cannot afford grocery or rent. If you say that inflation is not that bad, in their mind you dismiss their suffering and dismiss them entirely.
Trump didn't print $4T, the bi-partisan effort in Congress for COVID relief did.

I think the problem in voters eyes is that Biden did not stop after this. He pushed through multiple trillion dollar bills on top of it.

I'm not saying I agree with that stance, but calling the $4T Trump's doing is a really misleading. It was not part of his economic agenda at all.
