if you believe the left hasn’t ramped up the vitriol against their supposed enemies then you’re living under a rock. have you already forgotten this same hatred almost got Trump shot twice? the rest of us haven’t.
Standards are great, in theory, but a standards group can easily be co-opted by throwing enough people and money at it. That's basically what happened with DRM.
My point is public money shouldn’t be used for “investment”. If they contracted with the company to make a fleet and they didn’t deliver at least the public would have recourse to liquidate and collect. By handing out free money on a risky gamble, everyone loses.
My team implemented (and reimplemented!) a project using one repo per module. I think the main benefit was ensuring enough separation of concern due to the burden of changing multiple parts together. I managed to reduce something like 10 repos down to 3... Work in progress.
The Wii Hardware was also basically a beefed up GameCube. Plus the Wiimote.
Yup I just looked at the clang score in geekbench, for single threaded 9800x3d scored about 3200, whilst m4 had 4400... The m4 is so far above the rest it's ridiculous. Wish Apple made an x86 equivalent so that it can play Windows games lol.

Three legs to the stool - the NN algorithms, the data, and the labels. I think the first two are obvious but think about how much human time and care went into labeling millions of images...
Does it support multiple languages? For processing the video, do you use dedicated server or cloud server?
Can you elaborate on how there will be more rights under the GOP, which just spent significant energy reducing women’s rights to bodily autonomy, and Trump threatening the free speech of media companies he doesn’t like?
The 2020 primary went without large interference. Lo and behold, the democratic candidate won that election. The lesson is clear: to win elections hold actual primaries instead of appointing candidates.

the entire ETF industry is based on either spending the distributions or reinvesting them, depending on which side of the curve your age lands on, so it's pretty much spending the index.

No...you get ostracized or cancelled in many social circles for indicating that you might support Trump or Republican policies. Even mild ostracization would make people hesitate to voice their opinions, never mind the level it is currently.
A beefier Switch is what everyone wants. The number 1 complaint I hear about it is how game X looks worse on it than the Xbox/PS version.

Hopefully Nintendo learned its lessons from the Wii U.
I dont know if I have ever read something as poetic and true to the point at the same time. Thanks for this priceless realisation.
Canada does not have a hard left party.. The NDP is at best social democratic which is centre left.

Even the conservatives, while courting some hard right views, is arguably not that far right.. evne though I would put them firmly in the right wing.
> There was not enough focus on economy in a way that actually mattered

Between price controls, tariffs, and excepting tips from taxes, I had no confidence either candidate could pass Econ 101. The proposals can play well politically, but it leaves people who have a basic understanding of economics at a loss of who'd be better.
I know... we could have built something free form ground up (like zed did) but we had to pick a battle between building a new editor from the grounds up or building from a solid foundation (VSCode)
We are a small team right now (4 of us) and have been users of VSCode, so instead of building something new, putting energy into building from VSCode made a lot more sense to us.
Can we talk about how the voter turnout for the GOP and Dems both follow linear patterns in the last few races, except for Dem turnout in 2020? How do we explain the statistical anomaly, other than the obvious?
that’s a toss up? no that’s a commanding victory. if republicans take the house and all else is the same they’ll have won popular, electoral, house and senate. that’s not a toss up
I think that given the context that he illegally tried to retain power after losing in 2020 that many people infer something into his words about reducing the need to vote
I do not, because there haven’t been sufficient points shared reflecting US -> Elsewhere asylum seekers outside of High Value Assets (think Snowden). That said, I have heard anecdotally that the Canadian government would consider LGBTQ status for asylum - though again, a US Citizen seeking asylum is a relative novelty in general, so I have no concrete data.

As with all plans, this will not withstand enemy contact. You will need to adapt it to survive as required.

I just honestly hope it doesn’t get to that point.
Trump can just take the whole NOAA budget himself now and replace them with a legal pad and a black sharpie. I assume that's the plan. Say, we can just steal anything from any budget now right?
Apparently people that support Trump
Oh no... Insult the voters yet again. That'll work this time!
> You posses religious conditioning that makes you believe this.
> but your opinion/stance should not be projected on everyone else in the country.

Wow. Talk about projection. Roe, a case where the woman involved later admitted to lying about being raped, that case, the repeal of that case moves the opinion/stance back to the states, where it should be.

The only choice that made any sense at all. America is about to experience it's absolute Golden Age.

2026 will be the USA's 250th anniversary, we'll put men on the moon for the first time in 50+ years, and we'll land a rocket on Mars. The Supreme Court is secured for decades, immigration reform will now be swift and bipartisan, and we're moving manufacturing back to the US, including 4nm chip manufacturing with TSMC, avoiding escalation with China on that front.

We are truly living in the best possible timeline, I'm literally so pumped and excited for the future of our country and world, and I'm ready to start building for the future!!!

Remember when all the brown people, gays, trans, blacks, and women were imprisoned in 2016? /s
A good read. I was a bit saddened while reading the election thread earlier here on HN - there were more authoritarian voices here than I would've hoped.
Even if a 3rd party got elected president, the Senate and the House are Republican/Democrat, they wouldnt be able to get anything passed and it would be largely useless.

The entire system needs an overhaul.
Many women get pregnant and want a kid and experience complications. Roughly 25% of pregnancies end in miscarriage. Restrictions on abortion care must necessarily negatively affect care for pregnant women who have not sought & don't want abortion. The care for complications of abortion and miscarriage are essentially identical. Incentives are aligned for doctors to deny care for either. There is no medical, civil, or criminal recourse for women who die or have their health affected by improper care for pregnancy complication, miscarriage, or complication of abortion; there is no punishment for doctors who fail to provide medical standard of care; there is an affirmative effort by some states to punish doctors who would provide such care.
Their “Trump is a dictator, literally Hitler, who will take away womens right to vote” didn’t work the first time in 2015/2016 and it didn’t work this time either. The U.S.A knows what a Trump presidency is like and they voted to have it again: it was that good.

Democrats got their chance the last 4 years and instead of making the lives of U.S. Citizens better, they made it much worse, and shoved social justice issues down their throats that they didn’t want.

Cop on.
This is oddly reflective of the elitism that cost the DNC it's victory. "Well actually, my poor man, a tomato is a fruit and every PhD economist knows that inflation is connected to fiscal policy's influence on the monetary supply"

The every day person uses the culinary definition of tomato, and inflation means that those tomatoes cost more at Walmart.

That's also dang.
Even in the literal sense of "owning" you don't need a majority, but yes - one share does have fractional power. I voted my 1000/<a very big number> just recently.
You'd hope so, but this is likely a move to placate detractors so the army of Nintendo fans buy whatever insanely underpowered and overpriced device they eventually release.

Would you mind expanding on what these "sharp edges" are that you're warning about? I'm not really sure what you mean by this. Keychain has served me (and I imagine many others) really well for a while.
I'm a little bewildered by this sort of prediction. How will you update your priors in 2028 when this doesn't happen? What will be the excuse for why this didn't happen?
Even AWS CodeBuild (or CodePipeline) allows you to do this now. It didn't before but it's a fairly recent update.
There are now cart dumpers that can copy and store multiple Switch games on an SD card. If the same form factor is used its likely these will still work for original Switch games.
Jensen embraced AI as a way to recover TAM after ASICs took over crypto mining. You can see that between-period in NVidia revenue and profit graphs.

By that time, GP-GPU had been around for a long, long time. CUDA still doesn't have much to do with AI - sure, it supports AI usage, even includes some AI-specific features (low-mixed precision blocked operations).

Originally, chance. Over a decade ago I was traveling country to country a year at a time, and had never lived somewhere so far north. I booked a ticket and landed with a suitcase knowing nothing about it (no exaggeration, I had no idea.)

Once there I realised it's an amazing place. Lovely people. Peaceful and quiet. Good rule of law and stability combined with kindness (you can trust the police here.) High tech. Beautiful nature. Very clean air. Lots of forest. Big enough to have a big city; small-town living if you want.

It's very business-friendly and I started a company here. Then, married an Estonian, so I guess I'm staying here now :)
> The difference is that it's less impactful since it has a near uBO-level blocker built-in to the browser.

I think that's the right thing to do. Honestly V3 is pretty reasonable. It's just that uBlock Origin is so important and trusted it should be an exception. It should be built into the browser, only conflicts of interest prevent this. Can't trust an ad company to maintain an ad blocker.
I cant tell you how much this election has spiked my anxiety. I am glad it is over.
According to the exit polling, voters most concerned about democracy voted Trump.

My guess is that the worries on democracy have nothing to do with regular Americans getting riled up when their candidate lost (jan 6), and more to do with the entire political machine coming down on Trump after his loss in an attempt to take his wealth and imprison him in politically motivated lawsuits with made up charges.
Probably because it is? [1]

Damn TIL, guess we need to roll back desegregation and abolition too cause that was so contentious
Is there a way of trying it in a simulator free, or are all the implementations commercial? I appreciate that I could use Wikipedia, but sometimes you end up going a long way down dead ends that way, so I hope you don't ming my asking.
Yeah, I never believed any of the "stolen election" diatribe, but after last night, I'm actually starting to change my mind on that. I now think it's actually very possible.
Yup, I have.

We also use tree-sitter for the smartness of understanding symbols https://github.com/codestoryai/sidecar/blob/ba20fb3596c71186... and also the editor for talking to the Language Server.

What we found was that its not just about having access to these tools but to smartly perform the `go-to-definition` `go-to-reference` etc to grab the right context as and when required.

Every LLM call in between slows down the response time so there are a fair bit of heuristics which we use today to sidestep that process.
Bernie Sanders is your answer to Trump? Thankfully Trump can’t run again because that kind of thinking would have him winning elections into 2030.
Let's see

- Decriminalization of theft (now overturned via prop 36 in California)
- Wealth redistribution via wealth taxes, unrealized gains taxes etc (Kamala policy proposal)
- Support for anarchist movements (support for Jihadist elements, 2020 riots etc)
Depending on how bad the hike is, maybe? You're essentially arguing that consumers are unresponsive to price increases which just isn't true.

If the hike is bad enough we might see a return to kitchen electrics that don't use microcontrollers at all. Unironically good news if you want physical buttons again.
If you include a range you have to test with everything in the range.
Depending on your social circle such exposure is not so hard to avoid. Maybe you cannot avoid it entirely but it may be low enough that it doesn't matter. I have older relatives with basically zero online presence.
Yes, and now those people are stuck with Trump who is far worse on that score.
Is it a side effect if it's also the primary effect?
It's half of the people, it's the whole country. Our systems, the way we organize society, the behavior we reward, the people we idolize all fall under this. Every major (and minor!) industry is led by Trumps, tech included. Every business has a man at the top of it with not an insignificant amount in common with Trump. That's not a coincidence, it's an ongoing process.

A system's purpose is what it does, and our system makes Trumps on an industrial scale. Almost every boy in America goes through a phase, at least, of wanting to be Trump: to be rich, so goddamn rich that he can do anything he wants and just pay it off, and a distressing number of them never grow out of it, and to be clear, that is a rational response. They have witnessed firsthand with their eyes, in their movies, in the world around them, by virtue of who wins, that Trumps win. All you have to do is talk smooth, accept no responsibility, assert your dominance over reality itself over and over and over, and our system will, far more often than not, reward you handsomely.
I do not value human life over any other life. Squirrels, frogs, birds, babies, they are all the same.
You made a subtle, but important, pivot from the topic of “Bitcoin” to the broader topic of “crypto”.

Bitcoin specifically, with its multi-trillion dollar market cap, is built up that high purely on speculation. It is a very fragile store of wealth, especially the higher its market cap becomes.
> The Democrats think that by going harder right, the Republicans would stop calling them Communist.

Is that why there were all the college protests? I had no idea college kids did it hoping that the right would stop calling the left communists.

Oh, wait, that __isn't__ why they did it.
Is that you Don Lemon?
I agree that this perception about modern leftism in the West is a very big issue. Through no personal fault of Harris, I think that a lot of non-white men and white women voted for Trump because they feel like progressives don't care about (or even hate) men, whatever their color, and don't care about (or even hate) white people, whatever their gender.
what was so bad about it? genuinely curious cause they did make quite a bit of noise about the integration.

The effect of coalitions is in political execution rather than in ideological separation. The concern here was entirely about the social impact on residents, not the political efficiency.

Coalitions can partly negate the benefit of the “spectrum”, but each member still answers to a different body of voters and going along with too many conflicting proposals would put them at risk of losing the confidence of their voters. Not differentiating from the other coalition members puts the party at risk of voters jumping ship to the others, and each party ultimately wishes to grow their own voter base.

Equally bad incentives apply to smaller ("alternative") media outlets right wingers consume.
The offerer of two choices then makes the man choose between his daughter getting shot and his wife getting shot. “Remember now”, he says, “whoever I shoot will not be killed by me but by you.” The Offerer cackles. “You could have prevented this from happening if you had only worked harder to thwart my first supervillain move fifteen years prior. You are entirely responsible for this situation.”
Being healthy and fit. Having a strong immune system. Gut health. Eating healthy and well. Getting good sleep. Proactively taking care of your body and mental health.

CBT Therapy is very good. Teaching one that, one's perspective is everything.

Being social, having positive friends.

If there was one book, that changed my mindset from a negative thinker to a positive thinker. Think and Grow Rich, by Napoleon Hill.

And the secret sauce to high performance. Adderall. Alpha-GPC is also very good and worthwhile to try first.

Says you. I see nothing ethically wrong with abortion.

Virtually every species of animal is known to kill their own young from time to time. Why should humans be held to a different standard? The earth is already overpopulated as-is.
For my friends here who are not Americans, here's my take on how the election played out. Please bare in mind I'm neither Democrat nor Republican. The analysis comes from commentators on both sides of the political spectrum. Since Trump won, the analysis focuses on the Harris campaign mistakes. I'll leave critiques on Trump for other commenters, as there are many.

- Harris skipped the traditional primary which reinforced to many independent voters that she was appointed by the ruling class of the Democratic party; US voters are extremely tired of feeling like the political "elites" have more control than the actual voters

- Democrats gaslit the American people for too long, claiming President Biden was not in mental decline; this created a lot of open questions about the inner workings of the Democratic party that were never addressed head on by Harris's campaign; to many independent voters, this left them feeling like Harris might be more of a political puppet than a qualified leader

- Harris's campaign ran primarily on restoring Roe v Wade (abortion rights) which is a false promise; it was clear she would not have the necessary Senate majority to codify a new law; many liberal and independent voters were annoyed at this attempt at emotional manipulation; this was a critical campaign mistake

- When Harris was trailing in the polls, she went on the attack against Trump with ads and chopped up sound bites instead clearly stating her plan for the country in longer form interviews; this left independent voters with a lot of open questions about her policies and plan

Ultimately, Trump won the popular and electoral votes on more of a referendum against the Democrats political playbook. Most Americans are tired of being talked down to and gaslit. And yes, Trump does this as well, but he won the perception battle.

The main takeaways on what needs to change in American politics to restore some sanity in future elections:

1. We need an overhaul in traditional media (or new media) to restore trust in sources of facts; all American traditional media is incredibly biased at the moment, leaving our politics up to the whims and misinformation of social media

2. We need a 3 party system; this is a long shot, but it's the only reasonable way to enforce accountability for the Democrats and Republicans since traditional press is failing to provide a balance of power; for the last 20+ years, elections have mostly been against the other candidate instead of for policy plans or candidates
Not sure why this is being downvoted, also curious
Literally noone in America cares about this enough to swing their vote.
> the counterpart is being called a groomer, traitor, child murderer, election stealer, deep state benefactor etc.

And when did this behavior start? After Democrats started calling Trump and Co. Nazis, fascists, etc. They just followed the precedence that was set by democrats.

I voted for Harris, and as much as I think a second Trump presidency will damage America, the hyperbole really is tiresome and probably contributed to our loss.
Apple have name/address/credit-card/IMEI/IMSI tuples stored for every single Apple device. iMessage and FaceTime leak numbers, so they know who you talk to. They have real-time location data. They get constant pings when you do anything on your device. Their applications bypass firewalls and VPNs. If you don't opt out, they have full unencrypted device backups, chat logs, photos and files. They made a big fuss about protecting you from Facebook and Google, then built their own targeted ad network. Opting out of all tracking doesn't really do that. And even if you trust them despite all of this, they've repeatedly failed to protect users even from external threats. The endless parade of iMessage zero-click exploits was ridiculous and preventable, CKV only shipped this year and isn't even on by default, and so on.

Apple have never been punished by the market for any of these things. The idea that they will "lose credibility" if they livestream your AI interactions to the NSA is ridiculous.
