The movie business does things like "directors cut", "restored cut", etc. I'm sure it would be expensive to have more alternate cuts of the same scene. But when a studio does 20 takes of a song to get the perfect version, it would be cheap to release a bunch of them.

Have you ever seen a TV commercial played to death, to the point where you hate the commercial, the product, and the company behind it? I bet that would be less of a problem if the same commercial had several different takes, and then mix them up when broadcasting them. (Yes, I know some are deliberately different, and yes, it helps.) Even a version now and then where they flub their lines, or trip over something, etc.

Wouldn't it be more fun if Star Wars had two versions, one where Han shoots first, one where Greedo does, and you never knew which one you'd see when going to the theater? There are still a couple flubs in the released version, like when Luke yells "Carrie", there could be different reels released at the same time. The fans would then be impelled to keep going to the theater hoping to see all the different versions.

For the benefit of people who come to the comments first: If you want a comprehensive debunking or substantiation of the claims about crypto debanking, then this is not the place to go.

If you want to read 23,000 words on banking regulation, its uses, abuses, the incentives faced by both the banks and their watchmen, and an explanation for how we ended up where we are, then go ahead and jump into it. Personally, I think the latter is far more useful than the former. I enjoyed it, at least.

Bear with me; the free market seems to think that history isn't a very useful area of study, and lots of people agree. At least some of this probably comes from bad experiences with history classes. I like to think of history instruction as having three levels. The lowest level - the one you'll hear people complaining the most about - is presenting history as a dry series of facts. At it's worst, the entire course can be reduced to a hashmap; event -> date. Rinse, repeat.

The second layer presents history as a narrative. Most people like stories, so this is much more compelling, and makes it a lot easier to enjoy history. But the highest level of teaching is about systems. It's not enough to colorfully explain that King so-and-so was furious at the offense given by King the-other-one. You have to try to make students understand the world that these two kings existed in; how things as small as calling 9th-century European polities "countries" can disastrously mis-callibrate our models. Once you understand the system that someone is working in, you can hope to understand them, and why they do the things they do. Once you have that, you can hope to pass reasonable judgement on their actions.

This article is all about systems and tradeoffs. It is aspiring to that third level. The title is arguably a little bit misleading, but I think it accomplishes it's goal, and personally, I feel like I've come away with a reasonable overall understanding of his thesis, and I think it matches the title.
If you know all about it, show it and explain why this isn't done.
This is a tech forum. If you find musicians here, they will be downvoted into oblivion because their positions are unpopular and the HN rules encourage downvoting for disagreement.
There's a lot of comments coming out now that both he and his mother suffered from some kind of terrible chronic back pain, and he himself had some kind of surgery on his back and that he and his mother both had big problems with UHC in this regard. It might still be a bit early to say if these stories are correct or not, but if they are, it would provide ample motive for the crime. It's a very small step from seeing your mother suffer greatly (and you too) because of insurance company malfeasance to wanting to kill the guy in charge.

Also, this is a quibble, but I don't think he saw the CEO "die in agony": he fired his 3 shots (with some difficulty because of the particular way the gun and suppressor worked), and then took off to get his bicycle. The CEO later died in the hospital.
They will if it is faster for less money. Of course, what about power consumption???

I thought it was nostalgia, but I see teenagers that love pixel art games, even though the art style is twice as old as they are. The style aged way better than, say, the PS1 era, where most games just don't hold up, and most of the ones that do happened to still use pixel art.

When it comes to old pixel art games though (as opposed to the new ones), it's a matter of accuracy. There's plenty of articles and videos showing how different it is to try to use a naive emulator on a modern, upscaled OLED vs how the very same game looks in a surviving old Trinitron with a SCART cable. If you are looking at, say, old Atari 2600 games, there's no reason to try to pretend to be a Trinitron. But for SNES? Sonic in the Genesis? Reproducing the screen with square, perfect pixels often looks worse.

Still, flash games are getting emulated, and so do Quake-era FPSes. Sometimes we rediscover older gameplay, or more readable art. Other times it's only nostalgia. But pixel art in itself? It's just effective. Modern games just throw away some of the limitations that didn't make the games better: Go look at Sea of Stars. We couldn't have made that game work in a SNES: Too much memory, too wide a palette, more animation we could ever fit in that hardware. And yet, it's a descendent of the old RPGs stylystically, and it looks absolutely fantastic by any standard.
Even if this were the case, I think that the fake ID would no longer be helpful to him once investigators were aware of it. I'd assume that scanning it anywhere would set off some alarms.
>Corporations in particular have insulated themselves from any accountability whatsoever and there are literal serial killers who knowingly sold products and took actions that they knew would kill people who have never and will never see a single day behind bars.

Exactly: look at the people behind the Ford Pinto (with the exploding gas tank), and more recently the people behind the Boeing 737MAX.
You're just imputing different meanings to what people said than what was actually said. The claim was about whether the CEO was innocent or not. Not whether there was authorization, moral imperative, or moral justification to kill.
Most people don't even know what jury nullification is, and even fewer realize it is in fact legal. I'd be surprised if he was banking on that.

I’ve only ever heard of TDD in the context of greenfield development. I thought the whole point of TDD as opposed to just “writing a lot of tests” is that you write the tests first, and that more or less determines the design of the system? TDD looks at tests not just as a cost center that pays off on the future, but as a tool to help you design stuff right now.

This is my perception as a non-TDD person. Maybe someone can validate if this makes sense or not.

Since the Fed is the provider of the liquidity and also sets the rules on what is a collateral and what is not, I say yes, the bank must loan you the money as long as you satisfy the conditions of the loan.

The bank is roughly a re-seller of the Fed liquidity. They shouldn't be an arbiter of who gets to access that liquidity but rather an administrative entity that follows the rules.
Location seems to be a factor. NYC has better statistics. Overall it is 54% since 2020. Washington DC had 1,088 murders, 559 clearances (51%) from 2020-2023. Baltimore is 1,042 and 315 (30%). NYC is notably better: 1,740 and 1,190, (68%). https://www.murderdata.org/p/blog-page.html
This is a frustratingly incomplete analysis of the moral circumstances. It can be true that one finds this person (and the victim) sympathetic, and wants rule of law to be upheld.

Keeping a lot of the incriminating evidence on him (including, it seems, the jacket) can't be a careless mistake (in my opinion). So what are some of the possible reasons?

- He committed the crime and had another target in mind

- He committed the crime and really didn't think he'd get away with it so he kept it to keep some unknown options open.

- He committed the crime and didn't want any doubt that he was guilty when he got caught. Perhaps he wanted the media to be focussed more on the "why" than "is it him?" speculation.

How about some of the possible reasons he was at a McDonalds instead of many other ways to get food that wouldn't have security cameras

- He was ready to be caught as the media cycle was moving on and he perceived momentum of empathy for him right now

- He was ready to be caught because being on the run was too hard and not inline with his goals

- He wasn't thinking clearly and didn't really have much of a post-shooting plan outside of getting out of NYC

- He felt safe in that town

- He overestimated his support

I see a disconnection with reality here… Somehow bugs are caused by dumb people who thinks their code is great but it’s not. So we let smart people come up with practices that dumb people will follow and mistakes will be avoided.

I think it's lazy and superstitious to make an analogy between practices in hygiene in medicine and software engineering.

But if you want to draw your analogy to its absurd conclusion, I think a lot of people would hate the idea of needing to wash their hands to do a surgery remote controlled by a joystick, because the sterility of the instrument doing the operation is independent of the sterility of the hands remote controlling it from afar.

So instead of using her money to find care elsewhere with a different company or even in a different country, he just decided to murder the CEO of the company that denied his coverage?

How absolutely insane does that sound?

My buddy was a pro hockey player. He retired and a few years later, he blew out his knee. He didn't have insurance and was in a lot of pain every day. He knew he couldn't afford a 25K bill for surgery so he got on a plane, flew to Argentina, got his surgery done, stayed for two weeks and flew back. The whole ordeal cost him around 8K for the whole deal.

Instead of plotting to kill the CEO of some healthcare company, he found a solution to his problem instead.

This is the difference between this guy and thousands of other people who are in chronic pain. Some smoke weed, some find treatments in other countries, some find homeopathic remedies and many other combinations therein. They don't just go off the deep end and plot to murder someone because they felt so wronged by a health care company.

What has he accomplished by doing what he did? Nothing. There's already been a video of the new CEO to employees about how they intend to stay the path of denying necessary treatments and expenditures. All of that pent up hate and anger and instead of channeling that into doing something positive for himself and his mother, he just took out on the CEO of a company instead.
> Everything you think you know will change in the exploratory phase of a new project as you code, and you’ll strain your sanity by rewriting tests over and over again.

This seems to assume that rewriting your tests is slower than rewriting your implementation which has no tests. But if you keep things bite sized, and the logging you collect from tests is good enough, it's often faster to change a test or a type and have an LLM rewrite the relevant part of the implementation.

Also, I think we have this bias where we get so excited about the implementation that's blossoming in our mind that we forget to check really important stuff before writing that implementation. A bias towards rationalism and away from empiricism, or perhaps towards our own aesthetic leanings and away from those of our peers.

I like writing a few tests first (even before the types or frameworks they're made of even exist) because it puts me in the caller's mindset. With those few tests to guide me, I can then let myself have a lot of fun building something with the callee's mindset, and tests will hold me back when I've gotten too creative for the caller's needs. If I try to just build it without those rails, I end up with something really interesting and not very useful.

> So my idea is, why don't bands produce a dozen or so "radio edits" of their better songs?

I had that exact same thought today when listening to Snarky Puppy’s re-release of We Like It Here. I have become so familiar with the original release that all of the differences in the remixes sound like mistakes, and the alternative takes sound like the musician forgot to read the music.

Yes, I realise they’re improvised. Which is the point. Because they only published one canonical improvisation (until now) my conception of their music was made rigid in a way that probably wasn’t intended by the artists.

(It also makes me appreciate the work that Giles Martin did on The Beatles’ remixes, that any deviation would be seen as heresy, and yet he’s managed to avoid any substantive controversy.)
This framing makes sense for well-defined testing in general. Applying it to a specific technique like TDD, however, is exactly the zealousness the parent is talking about.

The lawsuit seems to be about the Great 78 project.

From 1909 to 1975, copyright in the US had a term of 28 years, renewable for another 28.

An artist (perhaps Tony Bennett, who performed with Lady Gaga in 2021 at the age of 95) who recorded one of the last 78s in the archive's collection would have done so in 1954, expecting the copyright to expire no later than 2010.
I could see an attack vector here based on file/directory names or the full path. Different inputs could lead to the same order of enumerated checksums.

Doctor hygiene and seatbelt and the like are mandatory because they save lives, and can be very easily proven using basic tests and statistics.

But you also have to admit that the concept of business leverage means that a lot of the people who aren't creating the value can steal the fruits of the labor of those who do create the value.

It's not like every radio station, record label, and performance venue is owned by a wide array of competing companies in a free market. In reality it's a small handful of owners who will only put you in the spotlight if you accept unfair contracts.

Check out how a lot of K-Pop contracts are structured. Imagine having a lifetime non-compete where your co-workers at Microsoft were never allowed to work on your team ever again, forever. That's how bad contracts can be in the music industry.

People dont need to eat carbs to stay alive: most tissues can run on fatty acids and ketones, and the body can make glucose (slowly) from protein.

Dietary fiber is technically carbs (that the human body cannot digest and burn) and if a person eats no fiber, his gut microbiota withers, which is pretty bad, but won't kill him any time soon.
That seems quite unfair. The NYPD was the one that located multiple pictures of the suspect, and I'm assuming did a good bit of detective work to ensure the pictures they released actually were of the suspect in question. Of course at some point after releasing photos of the suspect one would anticipate that someone who recognized them would turn them in.
in a court of law I would say this (while it 100% should be) is seldom the case. every lawyer will tell you that their number one priority is to make jury sympathetic of the defendant. the number two priority is to find find someone else they can blame the crime on which is also very clear in this case who(what) that might be
Show HN: HackerNews-new-jobs – insights into fresh and recurring job ads
The website is meant for people that look for jobs on HackerNews "Who's Hiring" threads and want to focus more on fresh ads and companies, or to quickly look up ad history of any company.

Github repository: https://github.com/nemanjam/hn-new-jobs

Demo website: https://hackernews-new-jobs.arm1.nemanjamitic.com

I used Algolia API as a data source, along with scheduled task that parses new threads few times at the beginning of each month. The extracted data is then stored in SQLite database for fast querying, and the results are cached with Keyv for faster page responses. I will see in the future how much traffic the website receives and if this stack is performant enough. For the website I used Next.js app with default ShadcnUI components and charts. I just wanted a quick functional prototype to test how much public interest is there for an app with functionality like this.

If you are interested in more implementation details you can find them in the Readme file on Github.

The project is free and open source. Feel free to use, self-host, fork and modify, and contribute. I would love to hear your impressions and suggestions and look forward to discussing features and technical details.
