There are definitely people who don't care to switch between high and low beams when oncoming traffic appears. I was riding in the passenger seat with an ex-coworker the other night, and I noticed he just kept the high beams on the entire time. After a while I asked him, "Why don't you turn the headlights down when there's oncoming traffic?" He looked at me like I just asked the most ridiculous question and said "What do you mean? The high beams are brighter and make it easier for me to see." I reminded him that high beams blind other drivers and he basically said "Fuck them, I don't care and that's their problem if they don't like it." --that seems to be pretty much America's slogan right now. Fuck everyone else, I'm doing what I want.
It's still slightly impressive. The lobby of that hotel takes up half a city block and has many entrances and exits. There are lots of ways to get in that are not necessarily the front door.

If I were approaching this professionally I'd be waiting near the check-in desk or elevators.
I was very to booking a flight to SJO instead of SJC. The interface just said "San Jose" so it looked fine. Might have been nice to go to Costa Rica instead.
The registrar has control over your domain regardless of where you host DNS, since they could change your nameservers if they felt like it (or perhaps by accident). True I doubt a company like Cloudflare would do this (there would be huge repercussions), but it's nonetheless true that your registrar does hold all your eggs no matter what other decisions you make.
It took me sooooo long to recognize this reference.
I'm in favor of using Standard Time year-round, but in what sense does DST induce us to wake up earlier? It subjectively speaking makes the sun come up later.

2.7B users is a lot, but how many of those are established content creators (like say - more than 10k subscribers) that are banned on a daily basis? How many people would it take to review those cases?
As are the guns themselves.
We can't know that. There are plenty of avenues for a citizen to get a silencer, long range rifle, and places to train.
> Strictly speaking, Bonhoeffer did not die a martyr; he was executed not for practicing his faith but for abetting attempted murder.

I don't think there's a western equivalent but in the eastern churches this is a passion bearer. He's widely admired and informally commemorated. Like the article said he is influential across very different strands of christianity.

> In a situation of profound moral dislocation, there was no escaping complicity in evil. Violent resistance or tacit acceptance of monstrous cruelty: There was guilt either way. In the end Bonhoeffer chose to sin for the sake of righteousness.

His essay exploring that specific contradiction, written in prison, is one of the most useful and interesting works of christian writing I've ever come across. The article glosses over it probably because of writing for a secular audience, but what he was specifically hung up on was the use of children as messengers in the resistance movement he was involved in.

Some of the children would inevitably be caught, tortured, and killed. Possibly many of them if the plot were severely compromised. That's what he was weighing against his need to oppose the nazis. In the end he decided to participate and trust in forgiveness if it was necessary, a decision so self-assuredly childlike I marvel at its strength.

Interesting. I've been running my 4K monitor at 240Hz with HDR enabled for months and haven't had any issues with Display Stream Compression on my 4080.
Always seemed pretty strange to me that you can build and oversee an organization widely perceived (whether fairly or not) as evil, host what those evil-perceivers will view as Bad Rich Guy Conference in public, in a country where anyone can get as many guns as they want, and there isn't more violence like this. Seems like an unstable operating point for a society.
Nearly every professional 'relationship' I've had has been transient after you stop working with them, with people completely failing to reciprocate even after multiple attempts to reach out.

From talking to people I know that this experience is not unique to me, this appears to be the norm, may be it's the industry I work in : software development.
How would it work with IP/Internet at all? Doesn't matter if the site is hosted in Cloudflare, aws or random datacenter.
I'm grossly over simplifying but I've always thought a cut down version of Replicache[1] functionality would be an amazing logical progression for LiveView. With Phoenix.Component[2] introducing attributes it's perhaps closer to being feasible.

This is the comment that has been in my head since the news broke, and I feel like we are only at the beginning, like the pause before the first drop of a rollercoaster with the forward looking macro (political and economic tension, broadly speaking). Laws and rules only matter so long as we're all willing to believe they do.
Bite me Microsoft. You are creating e-waste. I have a perfectly good computer running a 4790k, 32 gigs of RAM, faster than my brand new work laptop, and you're looking to kill it.

These excuses are nothing more than bullshit.
It's at least a 5hr drive from NYC to get to anywhere remotely gun-friendly, like New Hampshire.
Laws are only as useful as the social contract they support.

Thanks for this. I should make a potential steno shopping list.
Only a handful of states require a permit to buy a firearm. A suppressor is equally easy to procure, and failing that, can be machined by anyone somewhat competent with a lathe. Won't link to it here, Youtube videos available with a quick web search.

In the interest of brevity, they're not called silencers, they're called suppressors since they don't "silence" anything like in a Hollywood movie. Typically a suppressor will reduce the sound signature of a gunshot from something like 140dBA to 110dBA. Still enough to cause hearing damage and be heard a quarter mile away.
It is amazing how much data firms make and how disconnected it can be.
What do you mean by anti-trust company?
Simple, effective and enjoyable UX. Nicely done.
Nah, it's an onerous process but plenty of people have concealed carry permits in NYC.
It'd probably require expensive on-the-job training, which is well out of fashion. Sure, folks could teach themselves COBOL in the hopes they might maybe get hired by a bank, but they'd be better off spending that time learning a language with broader industry interest.
Guns are illegal in NY? I think not, in the sense of a law that could withstand challenge.

Sounds like the tester was trying to be clever - afaik in most places the test is checking if your beam pattern is correct using a machine that measures it in front of the headlamp. What is inside the headlamp shouldn't matter to them in the slightest - either the beam is correct or it isn't. But I don't know where you live so I can't comment on the law in your specific country.

Everyone? No. But depending on how reading comprehension is defined / tested I would suspect at least 90% of individuals are capable of full reading comprehension.

The other thing you can do is "Hey, I remember when we spoke you were interested in XX. I just found this article on it that I thought you might find interesting."

It's a tiny favour, but it also shows you listened to the other person.

Its not your eyes getting old, it's just that are just more inconsiderate assholes out there now, enabled by newer car models that have a uncomfortably bright high-beams with the worst color temperature for night vision (for both the drivers and their victims).

That's basically propaganda and half-admits it on the site. There are almost no situations where you will not be buying your firearm from an FFL and you will have to fill out a background check form and have a waiting period.

The only private sales that happen are among criminals and within families. Regular people aren't going to risk the kind of charges that stem from misuse after a private sale. Certainly nobody with a legitimate business and livelihood to protect.
Are there scenarios where the police could fail to investigate, knowing the reputation of the shaddy insurance?
Synthetic diamonds aren't that expensive, but the power it outputs is very low (as one would expect from something that generates power for millennia).
Right you are, indeed. I was first annoyed by your comment but (miraculously) I stepped aside for a few seconds!

Of course. But nevertheless, Category Theory or Schopenhauer are good ways to get interesting insight which may (emphasis) be useful. But not as a tool (which is how CT is usually sold in those tutorials), but as a (long) path to knowledge. Only some times and some people get "useful" results from studying them.

Trying to sell CT as a means to a utilitarian end is prostituting it. Like selling Hegel to learn how to body-build.

Thanks for taking the time!
I don't think either of those was GP's intent. I think it's more of a lament about anti-intellectual and anti-engineering culture in the U.S.

I interpret it that you shouldn't need these gimmicks to get people interested in math, but rather change the system so people would be more interested in those jobs or fields, by making engineers, academics and teachers into more respected members of the society.

I am from Czechia and I see this as a feature of neoliberal capitalism. The socialist movement, both in the Western and Eastern bloc, had a lot of emphasis on educating people. China now does something similar. But under neoliberalism, the respect of people is tied to money-making or entrepreneurship. This view, critical of low priority of education under neoliberalism, seems to be shared by many people outside the U.S. today.

Yes, yes, yes, of course, the infamous CPU released just so Intel middle managers can get their bonus. GPU disabled, CPU gimped, the whole thing barely worked at all. Let's call it the 0th iteration of 10nm , it was not real, there was like one laptop in China, the Lenovo IdeaPad 330-15ICN, which paper launched.
It's trivial. JSX is just syntactic sugar for JavaScript, and templating languages aren't that. They also aren't just syntactic sugar. It's literally apples and oranges. I ask again, what is difficult to understand about this? Or do you think it's not true?

Resend (YC W23) raises $18M Series A
Hi HN! I'm Zeno, founder of Resend (YC W23).

I'm going to keep this link open all day, so feel free to ask any questions.

We're building a modern email sending platform for developers.

We've been laser-focused on giving developers a world-class DX all the while specializing in actually landing in inboxes.

It's been only 18 months since we publicly launched Resend. Now, more than 200,000 developers have signed up. Some of the biggest brands in the world, like Warner Brothers and Decathlon, and fast-growing startups like Braintrust and Raycast use Resend.

Our open source project, React Email, just crossed 300,000 weekly downloads on npm, 14,000 stars on GitHub, and more than 130 contributors.

Resend just raised a $18M Series A led by Andreessen Horowitz, and we're excited for the potential this new round of funding provides.

Thank you to those who created an account last year or this month.
My Irish-American mother who grew up in Pittsburgh in the 1930s wouldn't bat an eye at this pardon. Of course you take care of your own. I have a bigger problem with cops giving other cops and firemen a pass at traffic stops, to tell you the truth.

We don’t know that. As per the webpage, this could’ve been uploaded directly from the Photos app on an iPhone, by people who didn’t really understand the consequences. Maybe they uploaded it and thought they’d get a private link to share with one specific person. Most people are not tech savvy and don’t fully understand the possible ramifications of their sharing.
Congrats on the release Chris!

What JS solution/approach would you recommend to use with LiveView for pure client-side stuff?
Well it’s very unfortunate for all Americans that rely on any healthcare company.

Since they will all be increasing their rates soon to cover the expenses of 24/7 armed guards, armored vehicles, etc…

Edit: Or a reduction in service quality to cover the new expenses.
Suppressors are legal in CT. Regarding a range, you don't even have to leave the state.
We don't have any idea what the motivation for this murder was.

Funnily enough, the phrase doesn't even shy away from the fact that you are dying for your country. The poem really gets at the fact that the way you die is horrible and that in itself is enough to counter the romantic notion. The reality of dying for your fatherland is not cleanly and painlessly dropping from your mount in a heroic and successful cavalry charge, even if that is good.
I can't bring myself to be surprised on this? It turns out, animals have default behavior that is just not healthy. Humans aren't specifically bad on this, I don't think?

Excited to see studies on how well different intervention strategies work.
Not this commenter, but how I've often heard it expressed was we created the justice system as a better, more civilized alternative to putting people in holes just outside of town. At such a time the justice system stops working, as it increasingly seems to have RE: the rich, then we resume holes.
Interesting that this remains. I'd expect Amazon lawyers to beat them over the head with C&Ds until they change the name.

Crazy, if true. Perpetrator knew many people in the area. Had to reduce the chance of raising suspicion. Although “silencers” (suppressors is the better term) are not very silent as depicted in films and tv, but do suppress the muzzle flash and suppress generated sound.

I guess in a crowded NYC, that’s just enough needed to escape the scene.
Don't make things up, people don't reject "here's how you have safe sex". Maybe some individuals do, but majority of parents support calm and thorough explanation that sex exists and that's how adults do that safely so you 16yo's won't regret it later.

The problem is that thanks to 1% of overly active idiots it quicky degraded to "gender affirming closets" at our libraries and transgender lessons for 4th graders.
At least when my spouse wss in architecture school, these were mostly expensive in time, not materials. Things like the divided windows are a giant pain to put together.

It's pretty atypical to use actual materials in the model. When you need to see the actual materials together, you just use samples at 1:1 size and either hold the individual samples near each other or at most build a small corner to illustrate where things will come together.
It's wild that we let insurance companies label government triage as "death panels" while for-profit denial innovation got a free pass.
Is "an invite" techspeak?
Is that not usually reserved for people with tech or tech adjacent contributions?

EDIT: I know nothing about this person other than he was CEO of an insurance company, which I learned about 1 minute ago.
They are called silencers. It's the number one definition for the word in my dictionary.
Don’t even need a proper gun. 3D print a ghost gun or the firing mechanism (I forget what it’s called) and suppressor. No traceability.
I think we can be pretty confident that he wasn't shot because an AI product wasn't accurate.
Lol what? Neighbors and loose friends buy guns from each other all the time. In Michigan at least, you only even need a permit if it's a handgun -- rifles and shotguns don't require an iota of state involvement and as long as you're reasonably sure the buyer isn't a prohibited person, there's no real liability either.
Finding Roles in a Team with Generative AI – Communications of the ACM
The original use case was hearing protection. The modern tactical use case is that it makes it somewhat harder to tell where a shot came from. In almost no scenario does it actually make a gunshot quiet (maybe a subsonic .22).
And especially because EVs have much higher torque and are heavier than ICE cars, which means bigger tires and they degrade faster
When the original post about this was on HN, I searched IMG_[XXXX] on YouTube and the videos I found... let's say most of them were really boring.

The ones I see here are the complete opposite, they are so interesting, this might be a total coincidence or maybe the simpler interface changes my perception. You didn't curate them?
Costly permit. Requires authorization by high-ranking NYPD. Only given out to people in certain jobs or with bribes. The only practice range is in Ridgeland. You're required to transport it in your own car, in the trunk, ammo separate from the gun, and only to and from the range.

That puts it well beyond the reach of the vast majority of NYC residents.
Does someone disagreeing with your statement make it not objective anymore? :o)
Wasn't the original benefit of Perl that it was fairly close to a standard tool, i.e. it was available on pretty much any server you would be pushing a script to anyways?

Raku doesn't seem to have the same ubiquity, while Python is generally available on any system, or even Perl5 is still widely available on pretty much any system. I'd love to start using Raku more but it seems like a hard sell over Python or Bash

It's a hard one. If you lived nearby, I'd say that meeting up for lunch or a drink is unbeatable.

Maybe ask for their help or opinion on stuff you encounter? Whether it's technical problems, interpersonal stuff, personal musings about the industry... once every few months is probably enough, you don't have to stick to professional topics but that's probably a good way to start!
To me the joy of not doing anything productive means just sitting/laying on the couch consuming content in one form or another. I'm sure it can also mean just sitting and enjoying a coffee, which is fine but I don't find that necessarily enjoyable by itself.

Making art, music, painting, are all creative and productive endevours, so when you're saying to be okay not being productive to me it means to be okay being a couch vegetable. We need the occasional rest but I don't want generative ML to do all the creative and rewarding things.

No, but this is a case where incorrect AI decisions may legitimately contribute to people's deaths. Let's also not normalize the idea that it's OK for people to die so one of the most profitable companies in the world can make even more money.
