Well, it's not the de facto standard, since there are differences, for instance:

> The revision plan allows for not using any diacritic for a long vowel, as in “judo,” or adding “h,” as in “Ohtani” for the Los Angeles Dodgers star. Both are widely used internationally.
You’re saying that the advocates of deportation are aiming to intentionally destroy the economy so that they can increase their political power?

That seems less likely to me than either simple racism or a poor understanding of economics.

Road construction could come to a halt in some portions of the US. It is estimated that ~13% of all construction workers in the US are undocumented. I would be willing to bet they are more concentrated in certain states (Texas).

It's not really, tbh. Like the vast vast vast majority of content reviewers are outside California and have been for well over a decade.

The change here is to move the people designing the policies to Texas (basically a stealth layoff, tbh).

That being said, the moderation has been insanely bad for a while now, so all the model tuning seems like a worthwhile change to me.

The Texas thing sounds like PR but isn't really given their huge offices in Austin.
hello,

> Trump being a criminal is based on a shared legal and societal context.

To think that someone is a criminal, you have to believe they committed a crime. A trial is one way of establishing whether they did with certain standards of evidence and process. But it is very far from the be-all-end-all of the matter.

For example, virtually everyone believes OJ Simpson is a criminal, even though he was found not guilty at trial, and even though plenty of biases worked against him in that trial, theoretically.

For myself, I do believe that Trump was rightfully convicted and is a criminal. But that doesn't mean that "he was convicted" should force anyone else to believe this. It only means that a particular group of jurors believed it given the evidence that a judge found correctly collected and presented to them.
I'm all for consistency. But imagine having a codebase where most operations point back to an in-memory dataset representation of a database table, and everytime you change your position in this dataset (the only "correct" way of accessing that table's data), it updates the UI accordingly.

New feature where you compare 2 records ? Too bad, the UI is going to show them both then go back to the first one in a epileptic spasm.

Sometimes, things are just that bad enough that keeping it consistent would mean producing things that will make clients call saying it's a bug. "No sorry, it's a feature actually".
Similar, except the teenagers were allowed to quit.
People who created 3 of the 5 no longer work at the company, test coverage is minimal or nonexistent and the system mostly does what it’s supposed to.

In this situation, ‘getting more experience in the code base’ is more or less synonymous with ‘getting paged on the weekend’.
The context of this conversation is the actions of a senior developer. If the senior developer allows someone else to write the plan in isolation (thus allowing a completely useless plan to be devised), then they’re by definition of the senior role, not a senior developer, right?

A senior developer is not a passive position.

OpenStreetMap has the building outlines (sometimes even parts of the buildings) as well as tagging that specifies

• wall and roof color
• wall and roof material
• roof shape
• height (or levels, which
typically is then multiplied
with 3 m to get a rough height)
• starting height (or level), for
building parts above ground, e.g.
bridges between buildings.

This can then get rendered as upwards extruded polygons with a cap in the shape of the roof. There are a few more complicated ways of specifying complex roofs with ridge lines, etc. but few renderers support them and usage is fairly limited.

You missed a basic element of what they said: "can't measure it or repeatably demonstrate it"; seeing a non-reproducible event with your eyes is a form of measurement, and that measurement could in principle be done by an objective machine (recorded by a camera). The potential for objective evidence is what distinguishes a matter of fact from a matter of opinion.

As to the "correct formula for gravity" - that's just bad faith nitpicking. "Newtonian gravitation is a fact" is both a strawman and completely irrelevant when it comes to social media fact checkers.

The claim you are addressing is a separate one from the fatpeople hate story.

And that claim is evidenced, It’s not conjecture. I dont have it handy on me, but we have mapped out the ways people are recruited, and things like fatpeoplehate, coontown, are the funnels for groups to find new recruits.

This is Apple being smart and hedging their bets.

They are dedicating “AI” hardware to their current devices, and are building a framework for many different futures.

This is a ReactNative app that consumes XML and maps it to ReactNative components, so you're still using those pointlessly complicated technologies, but through a proxy application that abstracts some of the complexity away (https://github.com/instawork/hyperview?tab=readme-ov-file#hy...).

When you hit the boundaries of what Hyperview can do, you're going to need to dig into some of the details, but mayhaps you don't need those features. Either way, it's an interesting project, but like everything else it's going to have _some_ drawbacks
People use the term iPad to refer to non Apple tablets as well. That’s not an argument against Apples trademark.

People may not like Oracle, but the arguments against them owning the trademark on the grounds that it’s used to refer to the thing that it actually is, are extemely weak. I can see the non-use argument being a viable path though.

The same one Trump promised would be "the largest deportation program in American history"?

We've already had years of the Trumposphere emitting contradictory bullshit, and whenever you are considering an entity that that does not care about truth or honesty or ethics, it's sensible to assume that the outcome will be less than good.

Obviously not all the advocates share that goal - that's the whole point. Most people would not be OK with intentionally trashing the economy to overturn democracy. It's a camouflaged poison pill policy.

#pragma openmp simd

Relies very heavily on the autovectorizer of GCC / LLVM, but it works somewhat well if you know what you're doing. Also, I'm pretty sure #pragma openmp simd doesn't actually do anything but maybe makes the "failed to vectorize" warnings a bit more obvious??

I dunno, I don't play with the auto-vectorizer that much actually.

I think having some money saved does not make one petite bourgeois as I say in the comment above I think people who trade their time for money are working class. If you’ve saved enough money that you can retire you aren’t not working class, you are working class. The bourgeoisie do not need to work and so don’t retire.
It's not that they're inaccurate, it's just that they cherry-pick the topics to fact-check and their choice (in my limited experience) is always biased leftwards. You can be absolutely correct and absolutely malicious at the same time.
I always thought Krebbs was a cybersecurity firm organized like a lawyer's or dentist's office, where there is one senior person on the cover but they are rarely involved with individual pieces of work. Crazy to learn it is just one person actually, they do a lot of good work.
I usually like XKCD because it has much more depth than other comics. But I don't really like this one.

The threat model for airplanes, elevators and voting machines is completely different. Airplanes and elevators are build and maintained by trusted parties that have at least some interest in security and safety (avoiding bad reputation) and the largest threat is accidental failure. Voting software is build by potentially untrusted parties with malicious attacks as the main threat including potential attacks by those in control and maintaining the machines.

Yes, we have very good solutions for the first problem. But to my knowledge we absolutely lack solutions for the second problem. There are some good ideas, but they all make a trusted party assumption somewhere, and we just haven't figured out how to justify this assumption.
Not sure what you are trying to say - my point was that ie the question "is crime up or down" is not a yes/no answer. Depending on the input, you can easily create a statistic pointing in any direction. I think abtinf elaborated better on that here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42628198

It really depends. Honestly 6-9 months would have been an optimistic estimate even if it were 2-4 devs intimately familiar with the existing codebase. Permissions is a very cross-cutting concern, as you might imagine, and touched a huge amount of the monolith code. A big problem was that permissions checks weren't done in a consistent layer, instead scattered all over the place, and the team responsible for the rewrite, being new to the code, was starting from scratch and finding these landmines as they went. Scoping was also unclear and kept changing as the project went along, at first to pull in more scope that was peripherally related, then to push stuff out of scope as the project went off track. And during all these changes you have to keep the existing auth system working with zero downtime.

The devs were good developers, too! Two people on the team went off to Google after, so it's not like this was due to total incompetence or anything; more just overambition and lack of familiarity with working on legacy code.
Totally respect your position, given that you actually tried the tool and found it didn't work for you. That said, one valid explanation is that the tool isn't good for what you're trying to achieve. But an alternative explanation is that you haven't learned how to use the tool effectively.

You seem open to this possibility, since you ask:

> I've never actually seen any LLM-driven developers work in real time. Are there any live coding channels that could convince the skeptics what we're missing out on something revolutionary?

I don't know many yet, but Steve Yegge, a fairly famous developer in his own right, has been talking about this for the last few months, and has walked a few people through his "Chat Oriented Programming" (CHOP) ideas. I believe if you search for that phrase, you'll find a few videos, some from him and some from others. Can't guarantee they're all quality videos, though anything Steve himself does is interesting, IMO.
at least the naming implies factor ~20 less :)

I just have a number with a rare area code and then block everything from that code using NumberShield, the iOS app. I usually have a few voicemails to delete but I don’t really notice the calls.

I do have to laugh at security, though, since many banks and trading companies just call you direct. I’ve definitely received incoming calls that I hesitate about not continuing. Fortunately, I’m not too confident in my skill to detect a phisher so I always go online to find the official account to call.

If they can redirect my call then I’m doomed but often it’s exactly a completely normal call. They were just calling to make sure the wire I set up was intentional. Come on, dude!
My home has 2 floor if you enter from one side and 4 from the other side. Due to being on a hill. I wonder how to convince osm of that :D

No, there won't be any retractions, you will be "educated" that you are stupid, "anti science", and too stupid to understand the newly discovered "fact".
Good advice if you don't have a family. Utterly impossible for someone with small kids and a wife who is also working.
The point of the phrase "reality has a liberal bias" is not "liberals never take a nonsense position", it's "more of the facts that liberals [just as tribalistically] believe in happen to also be true, when compared to conservatives".

That something like this might happen is not surprising. If you have two political groups and you assign both beliefs from a bag in a purely random process, odds are that one of the groups will end up with more true beliefs than the other, through no virtue of their own but through pure chance.

> Science, the process of science, does not prove something as fact.

I intentionally picked a wrong value for Earth gravity instead of the correct one to avoid nitpickery on precision, location, yada yada.

If someone has a feeling that Earth's gravity accelerates at 1m/s^2, they're just flat out wrong full stop. This is the problem with the anti-intellectual crowd who believes everyone's opinion has equal weight. No, it doesn't. If someone wants to believe Earth's gravity accelerates at 1m/s^2, then their opinion (on that topic) is worthless because it is known to be false and they don't deserve any recognition for the nonsense. Facts are facts, beliefs don't make them go away.

> This is demonstrably false. If you witness an event once, you cannot necessarily repeat it, but you know for a fact that it happened.

Not at all. Human memory is fallible so if you are the only one who saw that event and swear it is true that does not make it a fact no matter how hard you believe it.

That's why scientific process requires repeatable results that anyone can (re)validate over and over, not one-off recollections.
Likewise it reminded me of my first summer job growing up in rural northern Illinois in the 80s: detasseling corn [1]. It was just something we pretty much all did, starting in Jr. High. So, if my math is correct, starting at around 12 or 13. The whole thing was managed via our school counselors, and they even used school buses to haul us out to the fields.

In the years I was doing it we all just lined up on one end of the field and walked the length of it pulling the tassles from the top of every stalk of corn. We started before dawn, soaked in the dew of the fields and freezing cold. And we ended early afternoon, soaked in sweat.

Pretty messed up in hindsight, though I can't say I've spent too much time thinking about it over the years. The only real lasting impact it's had on me is a crippling fear of grasshoppers, after being swarmed by them a few times in the fields.
