One important one is reposting that shows post to your followers who might not see the original. It is important way to see other content.

Also, liking it signal that other people were interested in the post. I don't global likes are useful for likes from people you follow are important.

Finally, replies mean can see interaction from people you follow. If you follow interesting people, you see interesting discussion.

With social media, it isn't possible to read everything, I know I used to try to read my whole Twitter feed. There needs to be some way to filter than just time when you looked. I think the current algorithmic feed is bad because it tries to show other stuff instead of ordering things that want to see.
Surprise a thing that doesn’t understand context is bad in a task that requires understanding context and intent… Well… I haven’t read the article and never will.

Or perhaps the large amount of power available instantly makes it easier to get into dangerous situations than an equivalent to combustion engine car. And as the largest EV brand with the most data available… they really stand out.

> It showed up as an installed program on my machine.

Sure, but did you check the "installed size" of the app? 1KB? Really think that game shipped as 1KB? You didn't even bother understanding what happened before you got enraged about it. Nice.

> my absence of disagreement with every unknown transgression proves that I'm hypocritical?

No, just that every version of Windows included games but somehow everyone makes a big deal over Candy Crush as if including a game in Windows is somehow a new thing.

> My age lacked positive digits back then.

Ok then, so you were outraged about Hearts? Space Cadet Pinball? Internet Checkers, pushing MSN accounts on people? Who in their right mind would find it acceptable if their program/operating system decided to automatically download Purble Place. Or were you negative digits old when Windows Vista and 7 shipped?

> Are you suggesting that my absence of disagreement with every unknown transgression proves that I'm hypocritical?

I'm arguing your extreme selection of what to be upset about makes you seem either pretty ignorant or hypocritical.

> hostile attempt by microsoft to push unwanted and distracting software onto consumers.

One could argue Solitare was one of the most distracting pieces of software in the 90s. Imagine how many hours people spent playing that and Hearts. People didn't choose to install that, it was "pushed" upon them. Acting like its a new thing with Candy Crush is once again ignoring history.

Replace every instance in your argument of "candy crush" with "solitare" and see what that sounds like. "Who in their right mind would find it acceptable if their program/operating system decided to automatically download solitare. Let that sink in. Either you accept that solitare itself is malware preying on an innocent microsoft or there is a significant and hostile attempt by microsoft to push unwanted and distracting software onto consumers." Someone so angry that Microsoft bothered bundling in a card game in their OS, oh my! A distraction application came bundled into an operating system, dear lord what ever is this world coming to.
What if the other person does not know the sign you made? In my experience there are multiple dialect in sign language, because every school just manufactures their own gestures.
Unfortunately complex systems cannot be fixed by simply going full forward in the opposite direction of a bad direction.

And yet we not only want to revert any decision that was made that we think correlates with an unhappy situation, we also want to choose people who are as different as possible from the guys we think are responsible for the unwanted status quo. So if the current politicians are serious people who talk in an articulate way we conclude that seriousness is a problem, because it's two faced. We conclude that being articulated is a problem because it's judgemental, it's a symbol of being elites.

If you conclude that serious looking articulated people are two-faced lying elites there are many alternatives in a multidimensional solution space. You could desire honest serious elites, or honest serious commoners, or many variations on the theme.

But no, we obviously want to get exactly the opposite, because that's the monodimensional thing to do! It's simpler. Let's pick the exact opposite of the people we have. Current people are too serious? Let's pick an unserious person. The current elites are too educated? Let's pick people that don't have formal education and/or that actively denigrate higher education. Etc etc.

I understand the human urge to flip tables. But if I stop thinking about it for a moment, I don't think the strategy is good. In rare cases it might be the necessary strategy, but in most cases it's destroying something that has plenty room for improvement and replace it with something that is much worse and will take even longer to improve over the previous one
I'd be more interested in what the distribution of grammar-restricted predictions looks like compared to moves Stockfish says are good.
Yes, it's the same argument that people have been making about facebook being dead when it's hitting all time highs.

That's a bold claim!
This was addressed in the accepted answer:

> rapid rewarming from open campfires or other sources of dry heat caused so much devastation.....Dry heat from ....open fires....cannot be controlled. Excessively high temperatures are usually produced, resulting in a combined burn and frostbite, a devasting injury that leads to far greater tissue loss.

Sounds like it was an overreaction to applying excessive heat to the frostbitten tissue.
The big difference is that static code analysis draws a hard line between what it can do and what it can't do, it doesn't have this fuzzy area of "well it can, but it shouldn't" that AI has (the problem there being that "but it shouldn't" is often lost, not just in ai but in tech in general).
It is occasionally difficult to tell from the label whether you are buying margarine or butter. And some margarine contains milk and is therefore not OK for lactose intolerant folks.

But still, I agree this sounds crazy.

When you want to reach people you go to where the people are. You fish where the fish is. It is that simple. People did not join twitter because the police was posting there, the police post on twitter because that is where they can reach the people.
I know— I work in film. The distinction is meaningless in this analogy.
I really can't take such hyperbolic rhetoric seriously.

I had someone try to claim we had "complete lockdown for years", which is news to me. We had one year of sporadically enforced lockdown-ish measures. Although, we did go out to eat a few times.

Hell, I bought a house during end of 2020/beginning of 2021. By the time we closed, I was back in office, we weren't wearing masks, and people didn't seem too concerned.
Or perhaps he just does it for ego and visibility.

This my view, in fact the whole thing completely puzzles me, Jones is free to publish his vile views elsewhere and his followers will find him. Infowars "onion-style" would have to be pretty dammed subtle to "trick" Jonesites into consuming it sincerely.

How the parents of the Sandy Hook victims use their compensation is their business but I feel supporting advocacy for better mental health facilities in the USA would be a better use of the money.

It's great to see more and more open source hardware products that work seamlessly with home assistant.

Home assistant is getting more and more user friendly and these open IoT devices also improve significantly.

VSCode's built in debug interface is also pretty great. I use it with the CodeLLDB extension and LLDB.

I don't really understand why people would use a separate debugger to the one that their IDE has. Most IDEs have solid debugger interfaces.
I'm actually thinking of switching from a Mac back to the PC, since everything is done in a browser anyways, regardless of the system, but the lack of the fanless laptops in the PC world isn't promising.

ThinkPad X13s Snapdragon was fanless, but it's a bit old now, plus, only 2x USB-C, without any USB-A ports, and a screen that doesn't open 180°, unlike any other ThinkPad, meh.
Why are you comparing renaming a file inside a directory picked or created by the user to robbers picking a pocket? It's quite typical to implement "atomic writes" by writing to a temporary adjacent file, and once the write is complete, move it to the actual destination filename, possibly overwriting the existing file. For example when exporting a video in a video editor, you might write it first to "$APPDIR/Trip to Spain.webm.incomplete" and then move it to "$APPDIR/Trip to Span.webm" once the file is valid.

I am fine if Firefox or any other user-agent mandates that the user can only grant write access to empty directories in order to protect their users from robbers. I'd still be able to build and organize a library of the user's data there, and they'd still be able to edit files with other native apps without needed to upload or download anything.

I think the remotestorage.io suggestion a little odd, since the only way it seems one can expose a local filesystem to remotestorage.io apps would be to ask my users to download, install, run, and secure a native, non-web HTTP server program, or to sign up for a third party hosting provider where the files will be off in a cloud. That does not sound like a "local first" app to me :(

I find it ironic that a protocol called "remotestorage" touts that it is offline-first design because it keeps user data in inaccessible user-agent storage until the user goes back online, at which point it writes that data to a remote storage provider. Only once the file is written to a 3rd-party server can the user can download the file back to their filesystem. Wouldn't writing a file to the user's filesystem be a more convenient and simple system?
Why does a police department need a feed to be interactive? Actually, doesn't it being interactive invite improper interactions from citizens that should have used official channels?
I think gathering the data to judge who's a lunatic is quite hard and fragile. Finding proxies like past infractions record would be already hard enough to compile at scale, I can't really derive a passable methodology that could tell you what you're asking for.

At least the data informs others that perhaps it's good to be cautious around Teslas, not very much if it's a safe purchase, and they state that it's a safe car so I don't see the hangup you had about it on position of a buyer.
Campaigning is customarily done before elections, not after.
It's worse than that. _Tree_ isn't even a well-defined thing.

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42150219 was highly constructive. It was direct and actionable.

kojeovo's original comment was less so. When you build a product, you're going to get random, in-actionable comments from people who just like to complain. Separating the signal from noise is difficult, and while there is a underlying concern about privacy, not giving anything actionable moves it towards to the noise side of the spectrum.
Still. If I'm going to hit a tree, I'd rather drive a tank than a motorbike.
Yes, LLMs are a sentence generating machine, but, this is different than what most people consider a GenAI hallucination. This is quite out of character of the context of the conversation of the chat. The only connection is that the user is asking questions about elder abuse, so it could be possible the LLM went down a thread of emulating such an abuse. It feels very chilling to read.
> In 2022, the rate of crash deaths per 100 million miles traveled was much higher in rural areas than in urban areas (1.68 in rural areas compared with 1.15 in urban areas).

ActivityPub is something like RSS. It is based on OStatus which used Atom and other standards. But it also does multidirectional syncing.

If Bluesky did ActivityPub, that will federate Mastodon, Threads, and Bluesky. There are tools for posting to old social media, we will probably see tools for the new ones. Should be easier since protocols are more open.
> Yeah, the only people who pragmatically need decentralization are people who are being censored but that's very few people.

There is a larger group of people who are frequently harassed but don't have sufficient control to prevent harassment on Twitter, for instance the recent change in what the block button does.

With decentralization, one can self-host on their terms, or find one with like-minded people and have more stringent controls on both incoming and outgoing messages, via blocks or defederating unmoderated or otherwise disagreeable instances.
You're relying on this 'strong arm' point, which I don't attempt to make. The DOJ could certainly be orchestrating the civil suit, eg, their attorneys help put together the suit and coordinate with the plaintiffs.

We know the government has conspired against Americans to prohibit 'misinformation' on social media, why would this be any different, when the censorship regime considers Jones public enemy #1? We'll find out the full extent once Trump takes office.

As far as the judges, rulings, juries, etc in the civil suit, I'm not up to date on all the facts, but Jones alleges foul play, that he was found in default because they asked him to produce non-existent items. Reporting on both sides of the issue are very partisan and surface-level, so it's unclear what actually transpired for Jones to be found in default.

I don't know the venue off-hand, but if it was in CT, then the judges and jury would be 100% partisan. That places is almost as far-left as California. Judges and juries in Texas or Florida would likely result in a much different outcome.

According to Jones, the first trustee in the bankruptcy was fired by the judge for misconduct.

An account ID in the URL would a terrible idea security-wise. It might not matter for you, but there are scenarios where every bit of information is carefully collected and then put together in an attack attempt. While you may hear conflicting opinions on that, this post provides a decent summary:

This is a platform for discussion, but if it was the example of a police department, why do they necessarily want to turn a feed of updates into a space they have to moderate (or if they can't moderate it, having to put up with most responses being along the lines of "ACAB"?). Communities can have value, but sometimes you wouldn't lose much by having your feed be read only.
Follow-up idea, probably silly:

Robogranny Olympics. Allow people to submit their own bots, Micromouse/koth.org/Battlecode-style. Bots are run on random phone numbers for several weeks, and are ranked on average call length (total time/num calls). The robot that can keep spammers on the line the longest wins the prize.

A condition of submission is that the bot code and weights are published (not open sourced, just published). Competition is repeated yearly.
It is a fine form of forward secrecy: past messages aren't compromised by later keys being compromised. The sender/receiver ratchets essentially provide a notion of what a session means in an asynchronous environment, and the double ratchet algorithm shrinks the window as much as is possible i.e. every time the sender/receiver changes. Dumping the keys only when messages are deleted is an extremely poor security practice.
> Why not exactly RSS? Is it missing something?

The users. You can put your news on RSS and approximately nobody will read them. Or you can put them on twitter and it will reach people.

This is true even now when the management of the bird app is seemingly hellbent on destroying the site. It was even more true when the decision was made.

I guess we can hope (or work) on an RSS based future, but the key thing to achieve is users, and then the rest will follow.

> we have no large software written in pascal

What? This isn't true at all. TeX was written in Pascal. The original Macintosh operating system was written in Pascal, then hand-translated into assembly to fit in ROM. Pascal was very widely used in the minicomputer and microcomputer eras, there were absolutely large software programs written in it, many of them.

And yeah if we're going to go with "at least the original version" then you get to ignore all the Pascal written when Turbo Pascal came on the scene. Though I don't see the point in doing that.
I suspect being spun out of Twitter, developed by Dan Abramov, and not owned by Mark Zuckerberg are all inputs that make Blue Sky feel like the blessed continuation of what used to be Twitter (at least for people in the hacker sphere).
Regular group discussions (not standup) are important. My team meets 30-60 minutes four days a week to discuss technical details and long term strategy.

It plays two important roles

1. establish rapport between team members

2. gives known space for issues. Leads to Better balance of focus time and group convo

This is the most important meeting of the day. Create doc to people can add things to the agenda. Managers job is to keep the meeting relevant, efficient.

Outside of that. Devs encouraged to pair together separately for troubleshooting.

1:1s are critical early on. DO NOT CANCEL THEM. And keep them relevant
No one is inherently "incompatible". It's mostly the environment influencing their behavior. There needs to be a culture where everyone feels comfortable speaking up and working outside silos, and that is always driven by management and senior eng leaders. For example do junior engineers get constructive criticism on a bad idea or design or are they yelled at and penalized? If the latter, of course everyone will think twice about being open.

And even then you can only do so much. If someone really doesn't want to participate then, well, it's on you to decide how to deal with that.

I'd also venture that the profile of Tesla drivers is also a factor along with those other two brands. I'd be pretty sure that Tesla owners collectively drive more aggressively than the average car on the road. Teslas aren't being driven by soccer moms and careful grandmas.
If was hiding (ie. collapsing blocks inside the code as well).

I never tried the issue integration out myself but agree that it's a good idea.
The things you're mentioning allows you to compare mostly rates and points, but they don't do anything for origination or third party fees which can vary wildly from lender to lender. These fees MUST be disclosed in the loan estimate or the closing disclosure and its pretty much the only place you'll find them

Actually, my opinions are not reliant on the results of such a test.

Anything that X does which favors right-wing opinions, and censors or diminishes left-wing opinions, I oppose. I'm for free speech, and all of us being in the same proximity to hash out our differences, and accept that there will be some which always remain.
The deal isn’t always about the price. For example, a $1M house bought with $100K down and $900K mortgage is a worse deal for the seller as compared to $500K down and $500K financed. Assumption here is that it is more likely to get a $500K loan irrespective of the appraised value of the house.

A lower all cash offer (say $975K) is likely a better offer for the seller because it reduces the risk for them and closes the transaction much quicker than a mortgage transaction.

I have been a buyer in two transactions where my offer was slightly lower than the highest bidder, but with better terms.
I would argue, that in that vast majority of cases, the readability of code is the single most important metric.
