>Because you could eventually outsource virtually everything

That's reductionist. I never said anything about outsourcing everything. Ford and GM aren't going anywhere but it's clear their importance is dwindling and will just be allowed to be on life support in the future rather than a core part of the US economy.
To add
- they’re threatening a shutdown as a negotiating ploy(in Asia you start walking away to drive a bigger bargain)
- their primary goal is not monetary, it was about geopolitical control. Then selling will risk divulging their data/algo/tactics (employees moving to new owner) and they cannot afford.

Are you a black American? East and south asians generally don’t use the term, and DEI focuses on the former and penalizes the latter (hence east and south asians avoiding the term).
The video which he uses as evidence for misusing the term “nazi” and “fascist” is a video of people discussing riots in Charlotte North Carolina where people carried nazi flags. If marching around with nazi flags doesn’t make you a Nazi then what does?

You are correct of course.

Being never seen as part of the culture does something to you, you feel apart, forever, even across generations.

I’m saying to give your fellow humans more consideration when you interact with them.

It might not affect you much because you didn’t build your whole life in Korea.

But imagine you are 3rd generation living there, your parents have been born in Korea but you still aren’t seen as part of the country. It builds resentment and segregates the citizens which makes life harder for everyone.
The Nature of Intelligence Is Meta
I find it just as crazy that many or most personal cars come equipped with cameras and sensors all over, but are not required to record any of it for analysis of a collision and attribution of fault.

The most unqualified person can be driving a 10,000 pound (4,500kg) electric Hummer and have no measures in place to use the built in cameras and sensors to determine what went wrong in the event of a collision.

Hell, there are cameras inside the vehicle that can tell us whether or not a driver was using their phone when a crash happens, but it does not seem politically popular to enforce reviewing this footage, even though being in a personal car is far more dangerous than being a passenger on a plane.
I’m only a C++ amateur, but IMHO C++ vs C#/Java isn’t really a fair comparison here—the latter doesn’t have template shenanigans and so types are much more transparent to the reader (by which I mean that you don’t have to execute a dynamically-typed program in your head to get from the term on the right-hand side to the type on the left).

I'll be honest: I didn't know who Crick was. Now that you've associated Crick and Watson, I was able to find the appropriate Wikipedia page. And yeah, this is not the Watson that I was expecting.

To expand into EV means you need to let go from the declining ICE sector and unions are fighting against such job cuts meaning there's less money left to go to EV expansion. Is putting 2 and 2 together really that difficult?

For me, 2 main advantages PHP has, for real production code, are:

1) Easy hotfixing/debugging on production servers. Just edit a file and save. Our teams which program in PHP solve blockers way faster than the Go teams.

2) "Shared nothing" architecture, which has two advantages:

a) it's scalable without additional effort, because PHP processes are stateless

b) better security, especially if you're doing multitenant SaaS, because all requests are isolated from each other (there was a bug in ChatGPT when you could view chats of other users because requests from different users were served by the same OS process in Python and they had a race condition bug when switching between users inside the same OS process - such bugs are very rare in PHP)

Not saying it's unique to PHP, but these 2 advantages for real production code are often overlooked; people instead focus on non-essential minutiae like "inconsistent function name, I'd name it differently tbh"
De-smarting the Marshall Uxbridge
> I completely encourage anyone to learn as much about the tools and stack as possible, but there is only so much time.

That seems like a weird way to think about this. I mean, sure, there's no time today to learn make to complete your C++ ticket or whatever. But yesterday? Last month? Last job?

Basically, I think this matches the upthread contention perfectly. If you're a working C++ programmer who's failed to learn the Normal Stable of Related Tools (make, bash, python, yada yada) across a ~decade of education and experience, you probably never will. You're in that 50% of developers who can't start stuff from scratch. It's not a problem of time, but of curiosity.
I agree that OP's idea glosses over and ignores a lot of things, but ill-spirited sarcasm is the quickest way to get someone to be defensive and argumentative rather than open to a different viewpoint/perspective had you kindly offered one.

C++ added std::midpoint() to the standard library: https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/numeric/midpoint

Another fun case, besides integer overflow, is negative values: in Java and C/C++ (i + j)/2 will round towards j, but i + (j - i)/2 will round towards i instead. Sometimes the difference matters.

This is maybe the biggest difference between America and other developed countries when it comes to this subject. You'll find that a fifth-percentile priced home in Spain, Korea, or Australia will be in a rural area with not a lot of economic prospects, but in the US you'll have the additional burden of finding a meth lab next door or being a homicide victim.

#pragma once is a de-facto standard now, and if it’s not in the actual standard then that says more about the failings of the standard writers than anything else.

And there’s absolutely no reason to typedef _standard_ int types anymore. Not in C, and definitely not in C++. That’s just crusty old practices. Maybe if you want to have nice short types like u8, i8, etc, I can understand that. But SlangUint32 is just ugly.
Yes there is something deeply wrong in German society - as evidenced by the recent stellar rise of a popular racist and facist party and the more and more common casual racism that is just accepted by the majority of the population.

I for one am sad that Germany once again seems to head toward embracing some death-cult ideology that in the past did unimaginable damage to the people it was supposed to serve.

It makes me feel that all the progress we made in the past 80 years is built on sand and we can slide back anytime in a highly fragmented, tribalistic and cruel society.
AIUI Bill Clinton did not lie:

The way I heard it, the government used a specific language for "have sexual relations with" (hereinafter HSRW):

A HSRW B if the mouth, hands, or genitals of A touch the genitals of B.

Any hackernews regular would notice that HSRW is not associative - as in it is entirely possible for A HSRW B to be true, but B HSRW A to be false; in fact this was the case for if A's mouth touches B's genitals; A HSRW B but !(B HSRW A).

You can whine and plead and ask the question 4,000 times, but at the end of the day, if one don't understand logic, you might be a Republican Senator in the 1990's.
Genasys Sends 10M evacuation orders
I remember some things being very tiresome, esp. from a C or C++ view of the world. There weren't any default implementations for most things, as you would find in Java. So for Java you might have an abstract class that got you 95% there, in COM/OLE you needed to do that 95% yourself, and this was before you had lots of public domain things available. Later, we could go on Codeguru or whatever and get a good example.

Many things were designed at the level of Microsoft App 1 (e.g. Word), and then when they needed something different for another app (e.g. Shell) they extended the interface in a different interface, and so on. The only authority for interfaces was Microsoft. Nobody else was really able to come along and make a set of interfaces that would become universal for something new, so you had to wait for Microsoft's design, and then it would be designed to support the way it was implemented in Word, Excel, or Internet Explorer, and they would not release the implementation details, just an interface specification and some hastily-written documentation.

Naming things was hard for Microsoft, so they came up with idiotic names like "IClassFactory" because they couldn't decide if they wanted to call something a Class (Smalltalk-style) or a Factory.

It took forever to learn because the documentation was not oriented around practical things, it was toy examples that didn't even work within the system. As a young programmer, it took me a long time to understand how everything was registered, what the difference between a CoClass and an interface really was, where to get that initial IUnknown pointer, etc., because the books were so focused on vtables and toy examples, etc.

The system was mostly replicated by Netscape/Mozilla for XPCOM, so it had areas where you could apply the same principles on other platforms. It also had superficial similarity to SOM/CORBA so learning those systems (thankfully mostly gone now) was also somewhat easier after learning COM.

There were several categories of applications.

- Those that used COM/OLE fully, as the underlying basis of everything they did, used structured storage, and exposed components and automation to the rest of the world.

- Those that implemented some sort of automatability and things like shell preview.

- Finally, those that used the minimal amount to support drag and drop and the like.

After a while, Microsoft's habit of introducing the next big thing and mostly abandoning it a few years later caused Windows application development to decline. COM has always been around, but many related technologies come and go. .NET blurred the lines between COM and the .NET runtime, and then Microsoft started making substantial overhauls of the Windows runtime without, IMO, getting buy-in. Why write WPF when it's similar to but incompatible with UWP? Why write UWP when Win32 works just fine? I wonder if they're going to introduce yet another? Oh, sure, Windows App SDK. Should we use GDI+ or Direct2D? Which one is going to "win"? Why do any of this when Microsoft themselves is using Electron in VS Code?
I highly suspect it wouldn't be better in brainfuck...
> There may have been historic discrimination against women and other minorities, but I have NEVER witnessed any such discrimination in the present day.

You are posting at the same time as Meta literally saying that it's okay to sling slurs at specific minorities and them only. Where multiple states in the US are banning abortion and local state governments are trying to ban gay marriage. Where the US president is outright threatening to strip people of citizenship so they can be deported.

Even from personal experience as a white straight man I have had people fire slurs at me or try to stop me from entering the male restroom because I have long hair and they assume long hair means I'm either gay or transgender.

while it's unlikely you'd allocate a memory array[2^30] on a 32-bit machine, I also use binary search on mmap'd files.

Specifically, text files. Binary search doesn't need the exact midpoint, just somewhere nearby, so I pick the midpoint and look around for line boundaries.

On normal sorted text files, this works fairly well. I was able to search a list of a billion IP addresses while touching only a few pages.

>I can’t believe that a young single straight man wouldn’t be all over that event

I'm not young (neither I'm old - a bit over 30) anymore, but I would never go to such event when I was single. Dating events feel like stress, a lot of expectations to meet, and ultimately there's nothing I have in common with those people (or so I think). I always preferred dating in my social, work and hobby circles. I don't know if that's common, but anecdotally my friends feel and do the same.

Dumb question: How do I cross my eyes? can someone explain this method in detail?
I really like Dagger, definitely recommend adding it to your evaluation candidates. It consolidates a lot of tools and processes into one. We started with replacing Dockerfiles, but now we are also replacing Make. Dagger has made it incredibly easy to iterate and expand. For example, it was a breeze to add in several security scanning tools as we evaluate what we want to purchase. I didn't have to change our CI at all, just write a function per tool. The reason is that I have an internal struct in our Go that holds onto the information during running. It includes the source pre/post build and various stages of containers (base, building, runtime). I can then pass this struct to a function and it can decide what it operates on. Best part is I don't have to tell it to build ahead of time. Dagger is lazy and will determine the dependencies (kind of like make, but better) and perform the required precursor steps when needed.

The Dagger team is also incredibly helpful and responsive
I see this often on our codebase. It was mostly written by ex-C# developers who were new to writing Go, and there’s many ham-handed C#-isms in there. At some point, someone took a guess at how something should be, then subsequent changes were done by copy-paste. Years down the road, another copy-paste job happens, and when I point out that the patterns within are not good (like, can actually be buggy), I get a confused response, because that is what was there.

There is an implicit assumption that the code written espouses best-practices, but that is far from the truth.

>historically just put up with it because of social pressure to get on the life path to raising a family and lack of access to casual sex.

For women it was also a fundamental question of literally living. Back when women were expected to be full-time housewives, women had to marry to quite literally not starve to death on the streets.

The advancement of gender equality to bring men and women, all mankind, to the same level of freedom and authority has undoubtedly played a significant role in the decline of romance and marriage.

The best term for this is Cargo Cult Development. Cargo Cults arose in the Pacific during World War II, where native islanders would see miraculous planes bringing food, alcohol and goods to the islands and then vanishing into the blue. The islanders copied what they saw the soldiers doing, praying that their bamboo planes and coconut gadgets would impress the gods and restart the flow of cargo to the area.

The issue of course is the islanders did not understand the science behind planes, Wallis talkies, guns, etc.

Likewise, cargo cult devs see what is possible, but do not understand first principles, so they mimic what they see their high priests of technology doing, hoping they can copy their success.

Hence the practice of copying, pasting, trying, fiddling, googling, tugging, pulling and tweaking hoping that this time it will be just right enough to kind of work. Badly, and only with certain data on a Tuesday evening.

It depends on the company, some are faking it, some are taking hard lines. For example, my company (>100,000 employees, American company, in top 100 Fortune 500) has a 60% women in IT in Europe (targets are by region or country). We exceeded that, by promoting purchasing assistants as IT Solution Architects. Zero expertise, zero experience (purchasing is a different dept, they have ~ 80-90% women without any targets, it's a job that naturally attracts women), moved to IT to meet dept targets and de-professionalizing the entire department. I have junior devs paid more than software architects with 30 years of experience, because the junior dev is a woman so it was promoted directly as "Digital Product Owner", which is a title with no meaning or responsibility, but it is one salary band higher than a software architect.

This is one company I know very well, but I have friends and former colleagues in similar companies. Especially in non-IT companies, this happens a lot - check FMCG companies, for example, where innovation does not exist because most jobs are fake jobs but well known activist shareholders are strongly pushing for it, they don't care about profits in the pursue of political agenda.

"We joke about LLMs hallucinating but I'm not convinced we are so superior when we are outside our personal "training data"."

In all seriousness one of the things about LLMs that most impress me is how close they get to human-style hallucination of facts. Previous generations of things were often egregiously and obviously wrong. Modern LLMs are much more plausible.

It's also why they are correspondingly more dangerous in a lot of ways, but it really is a legitimate advance in the field.

I observe that when humans fix this problem, we do not fix it by massive hypertrophy of our language centers, which is the rough equivalent of "just make the LLM bigger and hope it becomes accurate". We do other things. I await some AI equivalent of those "other things" with interest; I think that generation of AI will actually be capable of most of the things we are foolishly trying to press hypertrophied language centers into doing today.
