Massive tariffs will drive up costs and lead to worldwide economic instability. It didn’t work in 1929 and it’s not going to work in 2025.
Would love to hear why you think this. Couldn’t disagree more at first glance. He feels like a breathe of sanity and rationality in a crazy political world.
For anyone deliberating between Pulumi and CDK let me recommend what I consider the best of both worlds: CDKTF, Hashicorp’s answer to Pulimi (my quote not theirs).

It’s got everything you want:

- strong type system (TS),

- full expressive power of a real programming language (TS),

- can use every existing terraform provider directly,

- compiles to actual Terraform so you can always use that as an escape hatch to debug any problems or interface with any other tools,

- official backing of Hashicorp so it’s a safe bet

It’s a super power for infra. If you have strong software dev skills and you want to leverage the entire TF ecosystem without the pain of Terraform the language, CDKTF is for you.

It's free if you're below a certain income threshold / qualify for aid programs like SNAP etc.

As an aside, I do agree it's crazy to be nickel-and-dimed for things by gov't agencies that my tax dollars have already funded.
Top R&D spending leaders of 2023: Big Tech firms spending hit new heights
My dad lost 2 new sets of spark plug wires to pack rats. He switched to a brand that didn’t taste like peanuts.

Lost an antilock brake sensor recently. We bought a rid-a-rat (flashing light that makes the area seem unsafe), but that only protected half the engine bay, so I put a light bulb on an extension cord on the other side and put it on a timer.

Going to sleep isn't a problem (for me) it's going to sleep earlier. It's more about the lack of light in the fall/winter. If I get stuck going sleep really late then I literally can either go forward - like stay up until the next night which is really hard as you get older or inch backwards. Light therapy holds promise.
Firstly, if you are an employee they are paying you to bend the knee and do what they ask. That is the very definition of employment.

If you don't like it you can leave.

The willingness to dislike it and stay boils down to your options elsewhere. Not surprisingly in a tough job market options elsewhere might be less, resulting in more tolerance for dislike.

All of this has nothing to do with spine and everything to do with taking the best option for you. Jumping ship into unemployment in a bad job market isn't a good option.

When it comes to company re-orgs, you already have a new job. Mentally and emotionally it helps to treat it as if you just jumped in here.
Without revealing things under NDA, what could you share about what more it would take?

"prime" example, intended or accidental?
> That's the macroeconomic argument I alluded to. Of course, what this argument amounts to is that economic growth should be fueled in part by devaluing the money of the working and lower-middle class

You have it literally backwards. Like 100% backwards. In a normal healthy economy, salaries grow faster than inflation. So workers living on their wages are not affected.

Transient periods of high inflation might even benefit them, as they also devalue their fixed _debts_. It's the rich people who are affected by the inflation, they are forced to invest money, rather than just leave them sitting in a risk-free account.

Conversely, deflation primarily causes pain for the working class (that's how Hitler came to power!), because it slows down the economy and makes their debts grow. While rich people can just enjoy having a risk-free real income growth.

Jlink doesn't produce native images, as its name implies it is a Java linker, for producing custom runtimes, removing everything else that isn't used.
I was deep into AI coding experiments since last December before all the VS Code Extensions and IDEs came out.

I wrote a few scripts to get to a semi-automated workflow where I have control over the source code context and code editing portion, because I believe I can do a better than AI in those areas.

Eventually I built my own desktop app which is 16x Prompt: https://prompt.16x.engineer/

I think this tracks in most adults who learn a foreign language. Within six months of moving from the US to a Western European country, I could read and understand enough spoken language to get through the day (commuting, groceries, restaurant, etc) and since then I’ve met a lot of people who have been here for a decade and still struggle with those things. The difference I believe was that I was highly motivated.

Not to toot my own horn, but I moved solely on my own accord. Sure, I have a work visa, but that was for convenience, not necessity, whereas many immigrants come for a short term job that turns into something more or because they are fleeing from war or disaster. I entered with the mindset that I need to learn the language and putting it off is just hurting my future self.

When people ask me how I learned so fast, I told them the truth. I don’t have much else to do in my free time so I “study”. These days, I even browse Reddit in my target language. I believe people are really quite capable of learning language, especially adults! But it requires intentionality and practice be develop proficiency, like anything really. If you want to get good at languages, you have to speak, read, and write every day.

To bring it back around, many of the best English speakers I have met engage parts of their life in English that they don’t need. Leisure and entertainment are the top contributors but depending on your profession, it could be required to speak/read English at work as well. It goes to your point of how the excellent students learn and I think everyone can apply to these ideas to learning across a wide range of topics.
Yup, and it all started with a Master's thesis.
When it comes to ML there is no such distinction though. Bigger models == more capable models and for bigger models you need scalability of the algorithm. It's like asking if going to 2nm fabs has any benefit other than putting more transistors in a chip. It's the entire point.
Except that TikTok dancing does not create those connections. It is just something that does not happen.

Standarding in the same building does not create then either. People talking in groups and one-to-one, people meeting the same people regularly does. That is what dancing was.
Yeah, it’s not the bigots and ignoramuses and accelerationists who vote for fascists that are the problem, it’s “this attitude” of not treating bigots and ignoramuses with kid gloves that’s the problem.
There have been episodes recently like Jan 6th, the Occupy movement, BLM protests, and Antifa attacks where people tried to ignore the law and intimidate elected officials.

But they failed, so the US is not an Ochlocracy.
But the electoral process already has integrity. There is nothing to rebuild. There was no voter fraud. It was a big baseless fuss and a lot of lies specifically to keep the core Trump supporter base hooked and radical.
The main reason for this ban, like the attempted TikTok ban in the US, is the overwhelmingly anti-zionist views of the younger generation due to repeated social media exposure to the genocide in Gaza. Fundamentally social media facilitates the faster and broader spread of information than ever before in human history, which is a threat to the gatekeepers who for decades have tightly controlled what information the people of Australia have access to.
Not former. The next president. And they most definitely tried to kill him.

I'm sad to see Google degrade, but I get plenty of traffic from other sources and we have a lot of direct traffic. My intense hope is that Google can fix themselves but given what we are seeing on the indie web that does not seem to be the case...
They stayed home.

Ironic though because lefty social media just spent a solid year telling people that both candidates were trash and Gaza would suffer regardless of who got elected.
I have a deep dislike for Scholz (SPD), but this is for the biggest part the fault of Lindner/finance minister (FDP) who was an absolute disgrace and unable to make a compromise.

You can't tell me he didn't negotiate before with the other two parties about what the compromises would be. Leave it or stick with it.
How is compiling to terraform a positive? I'd rather debug python than python-compiled-to-terraform.
Sorry you believe what you believe, but sexual abuse is not akin to rape. The law has said so. Do you disagree with the law or just want to punish Trump?
But Democrats gave simple explanations: “Joe is the sharpest he has ever been, the economy is the best you experienced your grocery bill increase is in your mind, no need to hold primaries and have your opinion we know this candidate is the best, etc… and if you disagree with any of this your are not smart enough”. I’m harsh but as a non American leaning left economically I found myself in disagreement many times this pas year but any criticism was met with huge suspicion.
Yea and we all believe that…
The assertion that the deep state skews Democrat is so preposterous it sounds like an SNL sketch. Imagine a bunch of G-men sitting around in a conference room with oat milk lattes while the Cigarette Smoking Man lays out plans for the next year Pride parade.

Also consider that maybe only Republicans filed suits because their presidential candidate lost.

But more direct to your point: No consequential voting irregularities were found, and this time around the Democrats arguably had an even stronger incentive to commit widespread voter fraud than before, while the current President is a Democrat, and yet somehow all the fraud from 2020 is now just gone. That stretches credibility, to say the least.
I really wonder how the future tariffs are going to shape the AI industry. Are we going to see huge AI clusters being hosted overseas? Will it eat into Nvidia's bottom line or will consumers just eat the price increase?
The Postman alternative you were looking for
This tool is outstanding! I've already integrated it into my workflow, and the custom agents feature is truly impressive, with excellent system agents as well.

What I appreciate most is its ability to avoid the common pitfalls of other AI coding assistants, like hallucinations and assumptions. Potpie.ai understands my codebase and provides specific guidance on where to make changes, making it a true game-changer for coding!
This is awesome. I have been telling that social media is like smoking. When cigarettes came, even doctors were advertising the benefits of cigarettes. Now we know the harmful effects. Same is the case with social media. We just dont know they harmful effects completely yet.

Ban this. I am addicted and can't stop. Or put a warning on social media apps like they do on cigarette packets. Using this app maybe harmful for your mental health.
It isn't the worst result for sure; it is probably the strongest result on the page beyond the one ahead of it. But it is 14 years old and not the best source in this situation.

Can you read the entire post? I go through each of the top 10, the board game post was ranked 9th.
The rules (for passport photos) are designed to strip away any trace of individuality, which feels ironic for a document that's so personal
You still don’t understand voter IDs? you think you’re going to win here?

mark my words, we will have voter IDs before I die, and it will actually solve this problem.
> Versioning introduces a big maintenance cost, both on the side of the developer of a service and on the consumer side.

Not really.

From the producer side it only requires that a) you do not break your contract, b) when you need to break a contract, you bump your version number, c) when no one uses older versions, remove the code.

From the consumer, it's even easier: you just need to point to the version you're consuming.

What exactly do you think is the problem?
RE ".....how can you implement such a law..."

Request the social media platform to implement the restriction.
The large social media platform have billions $ cash , so if that "really want to implement it" it should not be a problem.

However, I expect social media companies to "drag out every reason , why they can ot implement it..." - since it does not benefit the social media company. ... and would reduce its user base ...
Are voters really that shortsighted that abortion rights are only relevant to anyone currently pregnant? I would think at least every woman under 50 would be interested in that.
Isn't it basically this algorithm + overhead from using strings/regex?

def is_prime(n):
if n < 2:
return False
for i in range(2, int(n ** 0.5) + 1):
if n%i==0:
return False
return True

Haven't tested this, just quickly jotted it down in the HackerNews textarea, but theoretically it should be python code, which checks if n is divisible by any number between 2 and sqrt(n).

And wouldn't this algorithm be just O(n), what does the regex engine do differently (except the string overhead)?
Oh boy do I know the feeling. We live overseas and both our kids were born here. So basically the first thing we had to do was get them their passports. Trying to get a 2-4 week old baby to open their eyes and look somewhat at the camera was... an experience.

Tip: Swaddle the baby, lie it on top of a plain light piece of fabric (we used one of my work shirts) and click the camera 100 times.

Having said that though, I'm starting to think an 8 month old would be even harder based on the fact that they move :D
That has probably already reversed, people have come back again post covid.
You are not citing precedentedly binding law on the United States.

If one wanted to be cute, you’d presume they revert to their prior affiliation before deporting.
While one is certainly entitled to disagree with Meta's moderation policies, I feel like this muddies the issue.

Specifically what happened in Canada is:

* A national security review found Tiktok's operations in Canada to be a risk to national security

* Tiktok's operations in Canada are being closed down but Canadians are still able to use and post on Tiktok

* This type of review is pretty opaque by nature so more details are probably unavailable at this stage

If Canadians are still able to use and post on Tiktok I'm not sure there is a speech/censorship issue here. Maybe Tiktok Canada was harboring spies or something, or maybe this is a roundabout way to push Tiktok out of the country later, but I don't think we have any solid public info.
It's actually a really exciting thought...
Enough don’t that this can be an effective means of voter suppression, otherwise the states doing it would not be doing it. It doesn’t actually improve election security at all, all it does is add expense and difficulty to voting even for their own voters.
For sure, but they didn't mean people arguing to the death over if writing with a pencil or pen is better :)

Don't get so focused on tools, focus on the message.

Because you can use that to interface with existing tooling. Terraform has a huge and established ecosystem and it’s an uphill battle to compete with it. It’s risky to bet your infra on a tech that tries to drink the ocean and supplant the entire thing. Meanwhile if you compile down to TF you get to use a different language without having to pay the cost of moving out of the tf ecosystem. And given that the language itself is by far the worst thing about terraform that’s a big win.

It turns out terraform is actually quite acceptable when you slap a decent language on top of it. Passable, even :)
What is a hallucination?
It seems absurd that the requirements can vary so much and yet remain so vague
Yes, after years and years, we only recently have solid studies showing that social media harms individual children. I expect it’ll take a bit longer to finalize studies showing the harm to society.
And even in 40 seconds of context, what do we get? He's not planning on gassing the Jews. He's not advocating rolling back democracy. He's not even talking about invading Russia (something of a rarity these days). He is, in fact, talking about that wall of his that has made the press so much for the last 8 years. Between that and bumping abortion from a Federal to State jurisdiction we may indeed be dealing with Hitler reborn.

He represents the faction of US politics that wants to enforce a secure border and his rhetoric is ugly. That is pretty normal for anti-migration rhetoric, by the way. It makes him nasty, maybe even cruel, but not a fascist.

This is why it is a waste of time trying to follow up NBC News articles. They're distracting from a real issue (migration, border security, what have you) with ... I don't even know how to characterise it. Abuse to try and shut people up, perhaps. Playing silly gotcha games, maybe. That quote isn't Trump trying to revive Nazi policies, as we all might have expected from the outset.
Quick question, who launched first?
Wasn't it already a felony long before all this?
See, you pretty much confirmed my point. You reduce my disability to accessibility issues. Thats only a small part of the story. The much bigger part is that random people do not treat me like a independent human being. Your rather dismissive approach couldn't confirm my pont more. Again, if it were possible, I'd switch places every day. I am sure you wouldn't want to. So please, lets stop comparing who has it worse, its soo sad having to argue about that.
Yep they are broken for me as well.
If that part burning off is a solve problem then returning the orbital ship to the launchpad is too given that they are able to gently put it down on the sea, and that they are able to gently catch the booster. This part is basically the only problem left that is ship-specific. However for reuse (or rapid reuse) they might need to rethink heat shielding to reduce refurbishment time and cost.
Why enforce something that’s bound to become irrelevant by the time it’s needed?
Nvidia also has CUDA, which has surpassed all rival attempts at GPU programming frameworks in the last 2 decades. I remember learning OpenCL and rooting for it to become the standard but couldn't find a single job for that role.
As a home owner in Germany: it is important to me that my fellow citizens have a place to live than whether I earn 15% more or less with rent.

Also: If there is too much pressure, my risk of even harsher messures will rise, e.g. expropriation has happened before.
Surely the git SHA is "a form of versioning", isn't it? Yet I don't see how that form of versioning helps.

I can only imagine the challenge!
The thing that needs to change is zoning in cities. We don't let people move into our big cities in the US the way they do in Japan. That's the only change we need.
The big question I have is how well does it work on Linux. I'd assume pretty well considering all of their work on making gaming on Linux a great experience, but if I stream on Discord my FPS tanks hard with an NVIDIA card and X11. I look forward to seeing how well does in comparison.
Online RPG often have ceilings so high non hardcore players could play for years without actually experiencing all content especially with the infinite side-track available via socialization and helping others complete content.

There have been 20,000 hour players.
And maybe once they exist it'll make sense to impose additional limitations on social media.

The overriding drive should be to make policy decisions based on strong evidence, not on sentiment. If that means we wait a bit longer then we wait a bit longer.
On the flip side, it seems evident that younger people tend to vote for the betterment of all, while older people tend to shift toward voting for «themselves».
It really depends on what you want to call a "GPU"

The device in the PS1 has also been referred to as a "Geometry Transfer Engine"

You can see it's features and specs here: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/PlayStation_technical_specif...

Some may say that it is not a "real GPU" or certain features (like 3d) are missing to make it one.

The Nvidia claim is for the GeForce 256 released in 99.

This makes me wonder if our grandkids will be debating on what the first "real AI chip" was - would it be what we call a GPU like the H100 or will a TPU get that title?
> Just ask the Italians (68 governments in 76 years)

For 50 years Italy was ruled by the same party. Governments changed just to allow more people from the same party to be ministers.
