> Browsers do not want to render a window that is over a trillion trillion pixels high, so I needed to handle scrolling and rendering on my own

What’s fun is what actually happens when you try to do these things. It’s disappointing, you can’t even get anywhere near one trillion pixels.

The limits I found five years ago when working at Fastmail, after a customer using IE found their scrollbar broke when they had around 200,000 emails in a mailbox (plus I just checked a couple of them again now):

• Firefox: a few years ago, ignored declarations that resolved to a value higher than 17,895,697 pixels (a smidgeon under 2³⁰ sixtieth pixels). Now, it clamps at that point instead, but maybe three pixels more or less, not immediately clear quite what’s going on and I can’t be bothered investigating. (All browsers seem to have inconsistencies in how clientHeight/getBoundingClientRect/dev tools/whatever report things, that close to the boundaries of possibility. It’s mildly fascinating.)

• IE: ignores declarations that resolve to a value equal to or higher than 10,737,418.23 pixels (2³⁰ − 1 hundredth pixels).

• WebKit: clamps values somewhere around 2²⁵ (~33,554,432) pixels.

• Chromium: matched WebKit when I tested, now it’s clamping around 22,360,882 pixels, but I’m on a 1.5× display, so the 2²⁵ could be connected with device pixels or such. But I think I was on a 2× display when I did the initial testing!

Ive found copilot quite good at writing tests. Describe the test, let copilot generate, review + fix up takes me around 5 minutes versus 20 or so to write them myself most of the time. Also very good at scaffolding out new features, basically an extremely quick junior as the article said.

I used to live in the city and now I live out in nowhere land. Everything around here is done thru facebook groups and facebook events. If you want to keep in touch with the community, it is really only on facebook.

I’ve been playing a copy of the original installment in the series off GoG with my kids recently and they love it. Thinking about setting up OpenRCT2 though.
I'm in a similar boat. -$800 in my checking and about ~$1000 left on my CC. Also from Canada. Morgage payment coming up in 5 days will put me in the negative, and another one in January as well. Should not have bought a house. I'm basically screwed, but I figure the wheels of the system or whatever will move slower than me finding work.
The people in power passed laws to keep themselves in power? Tell me more.
You will find work. One thing to keep in mind is the job market goes in cycles. Right now, finding work is hard but things will eventually pick up. Here is some advice for job hunting:

1) DO NOT GIVE UP
2) You don't need every skill the employer is asking for. What you need are the major skills the job requires and the ability to pickup the rest on the job.
3) Only apply for jobs where you are a good fit.
4) While job hunting, spend time each day learning a new skill. It can be a programming language, a technology, or something interesting.
5) Once you get a job, save lots of money. It helps you make it through lean times and sets you up for a nice retirement.

One last thing. If your depression does not let up after 6 months, I strongly recommend seeing a therapist and a psychiatrist. I wish you luck. Things will get better.
Even things that have never been done before are mostly made up of tasks that have been done many times.
"Türkiye", not "Turkiye". I suppose there really is something to the Turkey Test!

That said, I don't know how bad ü -> u is in Turkish. At least in German, doing so often changes the meaning, and äöü have to be transliterated as ae, oe, ue instead. (Obviously a ton of software does something bad like "decompose Unicode characters and filter out non-ASCII letters" and gets it wrong, also hilariously failing the test.)

And in general, sure, every country should get to decide how it wants to be referred to (although I suppose that can raise complicated questions as to who gets to decide that too), but in any case asking a blog from 2008 to retroactively adopt that decision is asking for a bit much, I'd say.
If this is not by choice, I hope you solve your problems and I hope things get better. Please do not give up.
I do a lot of beginner training, and most of the value of some tutorials is that they clear up the unknown unknowns.

Both of those companies have much higher costs per charger than Tesla. Kempower doesn't make their prices public, but the cheapest I could find was $50,000 for a 1 port 50kW charger. A dual port 200kW charger was almost $200,000. Alptronic's chargers are $50,000 for a 1 port 75kW charger and $90,000 for a 2 port charger with 300kW total output. Those numbers are just for the hardware. That doesn't include costs for installation, land, or grid connection. My best estimate of Tesla costs is around $41,000 per plug, and that includes all of those extra expenses.[1]

Sadly, the graveyard of failed companies is full of ones that made amazing products. Kempower's revenue has been going down over the past year, and they've burned through half of their cash reserves in the past few quarters. They've decreased headcount to reduce costs. I hope they pull out of this dive, as more competition is great for consumers. But it really is the case that fancier chargers are significantly more expensive. So much so that it's hard to make them profitable.

Well because to young people kids are a burden. I think that's the easiest way to put it. You're not really established in your careers, stability isn't something you can manufacture for yourself yet, you don't have that much disposable income all things considered, a lot of folks' relationships haven't matured into something stable enough to effectively parent, and you still have a persistent drive to do stuff and build or grow your adult friendships.

My friends who are parents are very much trapped at home, it's actually great for me because if I'm bored I know they're not doing anything are are starving for social contact with another adult. It's hard for parents to not inadvertently isolate themselves.

Intel is also invested outside cpu and gpu architecture.
Ironically it is not a problem that can be solved by yet another software system to learn and use properly.

The mess you and many others have found is symptomatic of a lack of cohesion, standards and conventions. It is just too hard to retrospectively sort out such a mess. When everybody is hard at work on current projects, where is the time going to come from to clean up the past mess?

The only feasible solution is to implement a clean new system for all work from some point in time. Of course, it requires management fortitude and staff buy-in -- neither being easy but absolutely essential.

The most viable approach for you is to do an absolutely stellar job with your current client. Then using them as a reference site approach comparable firms with your proposal to fix their pain point. That is where your configurable PLM comes into play. But you will need to do all the work. Clients will not buy such software and then invest in yet more time and effort (i.e. money) to learn it well enough to configure it for their needs.

It's not a terribly good correlation; there's a lot of variance that could well be cultural. Unless you think it's explained by genetics?
Similar story for me in 2017-19 era. Ran out of money never thought I would work again, picked up a consulting contract, parlayed it into more, have since succeeded to the point of being discreet about it. I've come to believe opportunity finds us.

If you can be fit and pursue arts or hobbies, you're already doing what people think they need to be wealthy to do, and most wealthy people are boring anyway.

Run a CRM pipeline to get a job and you will have one in a couple of months, then use the stability as a way to find customers for your next thing. If you can't run a pipeline for yourself, you won't be able to do it for a startup anyway. You're fine. Good luck.

Democracy works because it leads to reasonable outcomes for the vas majority of the population. If the election itself leads to unreasonable ones, it ceases to be a good political system.

You know about the old dilemma used for justifying the electoral college "the tyranny of the" majority". Well, me and my countrymen mostly judge that we were about to vote for tyranny in our country. An EC like approach wouldn't have stopped it because of the vote repartition, but only because of electors refusal to vote for a particular candidate. Well, actually, it kind of DID stop it because we had the CCR step in and declare the election null.

This fetishizing of democracy need to take into account the safely valves baked into the law for situations like this and a safety valve just triggered.
Its the same mindset I use with juniors. LLMs dont replace reading the book, they replace the grunt work you do after youve read the book.
It’s the privilege of renter’s protections. Even with nonpayment the landlord has to go through a Tribunal administratif du logement hearing to evict them and that usually takes at least a few months unless the tenant is trashing the property on their way out. The process can get extended every time the tenant pays rent so if someone is genuinely trying to pay as soon as they can, eviction takes a while.
Personally I use it to hide chats from my girlfriend who has access to my phone.
Yea they can't edit assembly because they have reliable tools that work 100% of the time, always. They don't have to manually inspect the output of the assembler every time they write any code. This is not even close to the same thing as LLMs.
It depends on how you define "value", I guess. TikTok has become the dominant platform for this sort of thing in the US. Clearly it has value for lots of people. It doesn't really matter from an optics perspective if TikTok achieved dominance through addictive engagement practices.

Wow, the default in the Windows API does not do that? I would have 100% bitten by that at some point doing any development there, coming from a Unix background where I believe the "ECMAScript" behavior is pretty commonplace (and in fact it seems to be a subset of PCREs).

A disabling chronic life threatening illness could do it.

Escaping a bad domestic situation too. Gay kid kicked out by parents, violence, rape, etc.

Brain injury would do it. Maybe caused by an accident or military service.

Ditto PTSD.

In other words, there's no shortage of ways to lose everything.

Ooh. Lesson: if you are out of work go bare bones. You don't need a entrepenerial flat in the city. You need a shitty room in the suburbs where you can commute to the city by train or bus ideally (dont have a car). Call it runway and it sounds better. If you spent 20k/y then the 60k becones 75k in the market and you are doing better.
I quite like this feature - so much so I've been pushing to build something similar out at work.

The main missing piece is mobile / touch. Not sure if anyone's aware of iterations that solve for this?
> The people who voted for this guy have agency and decided for themselves

They got brainwashed into the vote. The other parties had very weak candidates, some with a bunch of corruption issues that the press raved about just before the election. The others are just weak and unprepared, even the second runner up, a former journalist who's currently a mayor in a small town. This surprise candidate is no different, but he has an empty discourse that strikes a chord with many frustrated voters, without screaming or being hysterical, much like that Stoianaglo guy in Moldova. Of course, it's all mumbo jumbo, the guy is either deluded or a mythomaniac. People are fed up, most of them have given the current establishment a hate no-confidence vote, which Russia has speculated mainly with bots on Tiktok. It was quite easy for them to do so given that the inept Romanian politicians also set the dates of both presidential and parliamentary elections over the course of two weeks.

Tell HN: Alaska Airlines website exposes passenger data
TL;DR: Alaska exposes other customers names, record locators, flight information, phone numbers emails, and probably more. I could have canceled or changed these people's flights.

The first time it happened it appeared by seeing "Treat yourself, Samantha" in the website ad for upgrading yourself to Premium class. My name is not Samantha.

I clicked, and saw Samantha Lastname was traveling from Miami to Seattle. There was her phone number, record locator, ticket and mileage numbers, emails and other info. It also would have let me change or cancel her flights.

When I refreshed I got a new person. Trevor. He's going from JFK to SEA, and back to EWR.

I figured this wasn't one-off (yet still serious) bug, and called Alaska Support. They didn't believe me, but once I had rattled off the customer information I had in front of me and told them I'm none of these people, they transferred me to somewhere I thought was a higher up.

The higher-up person verified some information, asked no questions on how to replicate the bug, and asked me to log out and log back in. Once I did, the issue did not show up again. They said they'll send me 3,000 points for reporting. That sounded pretty low to me as it seemed like a serious data leak, but whatever.

I contemplated whether to post about this as I thought it would be interesting for the HN audience to see, but decided against it thinking I'll give Alaska time to fix it.

It's been 4 months now, and today this happened again. I saw an upgrade ad for Sally. Sally and Chris are traveling in the same reservation from Redmond, OR to Seattle in Main Preferred class. Knowing what I was looking at, I figured Alaska had done absolutely nothing to fix the issue.

I have a theory what's causing it as there's something specific that happened before both of these issues, but I'll refrain from posting it here so it's not as easy to exploit. Who knows what else the payload might include.

I took screenshots throughout the process, including some console logs, to document what I saw. I am sharing this here in the hope that the added visibility will finally push Alaska Airlines to address the issue.
LM Studio puts stats at the bottom of each reply like: 2.09 tok/sec, 346 tokens, 1.74s to first token. This was for a 259 word response, so ~ 0.75 words/token. If that ratio holds, you might be getting 8 tok/sec on you M4 Max?

Looks like LM Studio is available for ARM based Macs, if you want to give that a try, that'd be one way to get these stats. LM Studio also surfaces up some parameters to play around with, and keeps a record of past conversations if that might appeal to you.

> this article is really aimed at people who are trying to have a bit more empathy for the assholes they work with

That was a sad article. The model they presented was useful we’ll have two axis for classifying employees, one for how hard people work, and one for whether the work they do is technical or political.

What made it sad was how absolutely reductive the model is. The place he describes is not fun. We’ve all worked there. You either wait it out, or go elsewhere. Although it’s important to build empathy, you need something more for healthy workplace cultures.
I'm not sure how you read that from this. The last sentence suggests that the appeals court believes there's no need to decide if strict or intermediate scrutiny applies, because they believe the government's justification satisfies strict scrutiny.

They do believe that intermediate scrutiny could be appropriate. Sure TikTok can (and presumably will appeal), but to SCOTUS, they will only take up the case if they believe in the possibility that the appeals court erred on two things: that 1) strict scrutiny is required, and 2) the facts of the case don't pass muster when strict scrutiny is applied. That feels like a pretty high bar for a potential TikTok appeal to clear.

Honestly I think TikTok's best hope is Trump. Either he somehow convinces Congress to repeal the ban law, or he instructs his DoJ to not enforce it.

Weird doesn't exist. You are not weird. You are not normal.

This may be different to your situation, but when i was younger I wanted people to like me, and if they didn't I'd blame myself for being weird. Now I'm older, I don't give a shit if people like me or not, and I've stopped thinking of myself as weird.
> No influence doesn't exist in any country.

There are laws to limit this, whether they limit campaign funding or the involvement of certain persons. In the Romanian case, the argument is not whether the right candidate won, it is whether campaigning laws were broken.

> In France during the first elections Macron was elected, he was pushed heavily by the media.

This canard again. Prove that something unlawful happened, and then you can talk. If you are butt hurt because Marine cannot win an elections then be relieved: she’s likely to become ineligible for 5 years and a candidate that might be able to win the damn thing will have some room instead. If your pet politician is Mélenchon then lol is all I can say. He’s a reason why France is in this shite in the first place.

> Those are example of "state-actor" level influence on elections, but somehow it's supposed to be fine because it was supporting the "good" candidate.

This is completely off-base and intentionally misleading. The media endorsing candidates is nothing like state actors at play.

> Democracy in unironically in danger, but not for the reasons often voiced.

Yeah. Not for the reasons you mention either. The fact that so many people keep repeating these bullshit arguments is part of the problem. Macron would not have had a chance had the others not thoroughly undermined the system for at least a decade before he showed up.
