Not particularly "show the world" because he's been very demonstrably weak internationally. He's a showman who makes very bold sounds, but his actions show that he will give in to China on Taiwan, like he gave into them on Hong Kong, like he gave in to Russia on Ukraine, like he gave into North Korea on nukes...

Now on Taiwan, he's already stated previously that he will _tax_ China if they invade Taiwan. This contradicts long standing US policy of not stating exactly what action the US will take in the event of invasion, and has had the result of pushing up projections of exactly WHEN China will invade Taiwan to be within the next two years, during Trump's presidency.

The only thing that will possibly make this change is as a condition of financial supporter Elon Musk, who needs those NVIDIA cards that come out of Taiwan so he can pursue his religious mission of winning the AI race. And that's only if TSMC manufacturing capabilities can't be dragged out of Taiwan and set up elsewhere in a sufficient timeframe to reduce the impact if China were to invade Taiwan.
Who isn't, these days?
At least post the rest of the relevant text:

>the President may grant a 1-time extension of not more than 90 days with respect to the date on which this subsection would otherwise apply to such application pursuant to paragraph (2), if the President certifies to Congress that--
(A) a path to executing a qualified divestiture has been identified with respect to such application;

>(B) evidence of significant progress toward executing such qualified divestiture has been produced with respect to such application; and

>(C) there are in place the relevant binding legal agreements to enable execution of such qualified divestiture during the period of such extension.

It seems highly unlikely any of those criteria are being. Trump is not even suggesting it, never mind providing receipts.
That's a bit misleading. agilemanifesto.org also hosts a (still short, but way more concrete) Twelve Principles of Agile Software: https://agilemanifesto.org/principles.html

(Also worth noting that scrum and most of the best known agile methodologies predate the manifesto; the manifesto was formed from guiding principles of those methodologies, not the other way around: https://agilemanifesto.org/history.html)

Would it be fair to say that the "unicorn" effect is a lot harder to achieve as well? If VC rely on 1 out of N startups doing well then that 1 success needs to achieve over N-fold returns just to break even.

On the other hand I have no trouble coming up with examples of hardware companies that did well: Apple, Nvidia, Intel... but those time scales are titanic.

This is basically the same tactic to the SOPA/PIPA protests [1]. I don't know why people are bending over backwards to pretend it was something other than a political stunt. Also, Trump's rhetoric has remained unchanged since well before this - a 90 day extension. They wanted to flex their muscle to show the US political establishment how many US users there were and how much sway they had to give them more leverage in their negotiations. That's about it.

> I feel like you ignored the many qualifiers in the parent comment. I read it as painting broad generalizations rather than stating universal facts about all twitter users.

I read them as broad generalizations too, just wildly incorrect ones based on my own perspective from having been a Twitter user at that time, even if they're broad generalizations.

Also if you start your comment with "Author is completely wrong" and then put a bunch of broad generalizations that don't match with people's own experience, expect those people to also share their own experience.

Modern interactive fiction is pretty amazing.

I like Zork a lot, but I've never made it even halfway through the game. Knowing that you can permanently lose by doing certain things (does breaking the mirror count? I can't remember) puts a damper on my enthusiasm. The infocom parser is pretty good, but I sometimes run into issues where I know what I need to do, but can't get the parser to accept my commands. This happened in planetfall where I needed to get a key under a grate, but eventually gave up and looked up what the parser wanted.

Some modern additions are automatic maps and fast travel so you don't get lost in an infinite labyrinth and have to write your own maps (it was fun once, but I wouldn't want to do it each game). Fast travel is nice, so I can get back somewhere without having to type N N E NE N and so on.

As for this thread and more relevant comments, I had no idea the parser variables were named after the authors. HN knowledge never ceases to amaze me. I wish there was a convention or something once a year.
I didn’t mention MAGA, you must have spuriously inserted it.

There isn’t enough time or space here to discuss how history of the US or Hong Kong can be interpreted. It’s a humongous subject. Let’s just say there are more factors than you’ve listed.

The claim that America is a meritocracy is easier to deal with. Try being born in a trailer park with crackhead parents (extreme example; see statistics on how upbringing influences outcomes).
America has vast natural gas reserves there's no need to invest.

If your country has to import oil and gas there is a financial reason to change.

The non-standard method is to get the SMS to a delivering SMSC (which is the same network component that's used for mobile originated SMS delivery, which is standardized).

Once it's enqueued in an SMSC, there is no more distinction between how it got there, as far as I understand (at least downstream from there; delivery reports to the sender might again be proprietary for non-mobile senders).

> The non-standard methods work fine if you're connected to the network directly but if you're overseas that will not be the case and so you can't receive these non-standard messages.

This is actually not particular to the way in which SMS have been enqueued, but rather to how they're delivered: The sending SMSC has to "dial" pretty deep into both the recipient's home and visited network in the original implementation. This means that they need a commercial agreement and technical integration with both of them.

Usually, problems/inconsistencies occur when they do know how to deliver to the recipient number's home network (because if they can't, they'd probably have rejected the message at SMSC submission time), but are then redirected to a given visited network with which they don't have interconnectivity.

This problem (and some others, including serious privacy concerns) is solved by a newer technology called "SMS home routing". In that model, there's something like a proxy in the recipient's home network that essentially poses as the receiving phone to the sending SMSC, and then uses the home network's resources to do actual delivery. This usually leads to more consistent experiences, and allows things like a "received message log". (Without a home router, the recipient's home network never sees the message content when the recipient is roaming!)

>but it would be impossible for an author to simulate a complete human being in their head.

Perhaps not (depending on your exact definition of 'complete'), but I'd argue as social creatures, humans have brains that are fairly well optimised for simulating other humans (and many authors report that their characters become quite firmly formed in their head, to the point of being able to converse with them and know directly what they would do in any given circumstance, even if that's inconvenient for the plot). In fact, we frequently pretend non-humans are humans because it makes it easier for us to simulate their behaviour.
Additionally, a break might be an opportunity for your mind to continue working on whatever it was you left off with, whereas an interruption explicitly redirects your attention to another topic.

When I’m deep in the weeds on a task, stepping away for a walk in the park, a workout, or to prepare a meal or some coffee, affords me the opportunity to clear the micro details of the task from my mind while retaining the macro at the tip of my attention. This state is very frequently where the best insights on the task emerge, whereas an interruption resets both micro and macro attention entirely to something else.
Well, one question probably causes around 10-15 minutes of harm (not counting the time to actually answer the question).

The US outsourced its manufacturing to China in the name of comparative advantage. Bob bakes bread, Alice grow apples. Everyone is better off because of specialization.

In Thomas Friedman's latest nyt column, he refers to China's manufacturing dominance as a play to de-industrializing other countries. It may just be globalization is incompatible with political realities.
I am curious about the rough compute budget they used for training DeepSeek-R1. I couldn't find anything in their report. Anyone having more information on this?
In defense of middle managers:

When I was a middle manager at a past job, my team kept getting bombarded with meeting requests (it was a "fire drill all the time" kind of place).

I ended up making a 4 hour "team meeting" every Friday morning to give them focus time.

I mentioned to them that they could have done the same on their own if they wanted. My team lead pointed out that since our calendars were visible in the department, having me as the organized gave the meeting more "weight" and so line employees were less likely to push for time in that slot.
You're right, thanks! I did a quick grep with "serde" on the features exposed by `mlua` before posting that comment, but of course they named the feature "serialize", so didn't show up :/

Yes, "lan mode" is an officially supported advertised feature, where you can happily print on an isolated network. (though as of this morning it now sounds like they're backing off after public backlash)
I guess timekeeping is relatively easy? These systems would only operate independently for a few hours tops. I would imagine even a standard quartz movement would be accurate enough.
This is the unfortunate cost of spam. I can totally understand why most services try and filter out disposable emails or at least emails that look disposable. It is far from a perfect system but unless spam and abuse is 100% solved, this is the reality.
100% this. This helps consumers understand the need for SW maintenance services on their own, without having to convince them... "You want to keep the software alive on your WindowsXP machine after the 2yr support garuntee that comes with your perpetual license is up? Have at it. However, here's a nice service package that will get you back up and running when your ready to upgrade your environment to align with the rest of the world."

I suppose the risk to the SW company is that consumers never learn and just keep opting for the one-time perpetual license every 5 yrs or so, so the perpetual license needs to be priced to bridge that time gap (effectively rolling multi-year support agreements into the perpetual license cost).

I don't belong to a country club, but I've heard they work that way. A big one time payment to join, then annual dues to maintain a membership. If you leave (don't pay dues) for a period of time, then you'll need to pay the big payment again because you haven't been contributing to the maintenance/operating costs of the club to 'keep it alive', so you need to back-pay your fare share.
Hoping for the opposite option. Using physical sims for devices that only support esim?

You are talking about an anticipatory response. Human response have been studied extensively and it is broadly accepted that ~100ms is the minimum for physiological processing and motor response to stimuli. If you feel you go faster you are anticipating your reaction.
LiveBench (which I like because it tries very hard to avoid contamination) ranks Sonnet 3.5 second only to o1 (which is totally expected).
Absolutely, definitely those two problems can only be solved together. Although right now I see very little effort going in that direction. If anything social benefits and taxes are increasing.

Germany's progressive tax system also directly incentivizes working fewer hours, as the more you work the smaller your hourly wage becomes.
This is very cool.

Apparently there aren't any eSIMs in China that include a phone number. I'm not sure why.

The difficulty of this problem rests on the ambiguity of the phrase "exactly 6 months", which is going to depend totally on the precise business logic. But there's no reason to suppose that the requirements of the business logic will agree with the concepts implemented by the datetime library.
Rust is slowly getting there, and there could be a good chance of using LLVM to touch the platforms with only C runtimes indirectly.
As in, transforming directly to the LLVM-IR byte code which can be compiled to C or more readily C++.

Meanwhile, your argument has exactly the kind of legal ineptitude I'd expect on a technical forum. "The public square is everywhere so you never have any reasonable expectation of privacy" is an argument so bad that even the rubberstamp FISC courts didn't accept it, lol.
Up next? They already did that the last term, when Pence was forced to stay at a Trump property in Ireland. They actually had to go out of their way to stay there, so it cost all of us more in taxes, and Trump ended up with the profit. Totally fine, some consternation in the press, but ultimately Trump profited and no one did anything. So yeah we will see more of that in the next term.
Maybe those people who "can handle notifications" are just less much less productive as a baseline to start with? Hence they don't feel the impact as much.

Are you aware of why prisons are, or were up until recently in some states, segregated by sex - why we have separate female and male prisons?
It’s somewhere in between, really. This is a rapidly advancing space, so to some degree, it’s expected that every few months, new bars are being set.

There’s also a lot of work going on right now showing that small models can significantly improve their outputs by inferencing multiple times[1], which is effectively what this model is doing. So even small models can produce better outputs by increasing the amount of compute through them.

I get the benchmark fatigue, and it’s merited to some degree. But in spite of that, models have gotten really significantly better in the last year, and continue to do so. In some sense, really good models should be really difficult to evaluate, because that itself is an indicator of progress.

Another dark pattern used by X that i haven't seen mentioned much:

When you open a link in the webview, it doesn't show the icon to open it in your preferred browser.

When you close it and open it again, the button is there. Clearly they are scared you'll leave and won't come back. That's also why they are downranking links.
That hasn't been true for years, the regular X1C has an officially supported lan mode and works fine without any of the cloud stuff. (I believe the smaller ones do too, but I haven't used them so I can't speak to them).

What country is this, if you mind sharing? I've never encountered any of these problems. I've received almost all my eSIMs as a QR code, and the ones that did offer app-based installation (which is convenient if it works, but ultimately not more than that) have a QR code for fallback.

> only allowing so many changes per month

That I have actually encountered. I've seen one (fortunately only when traveling) that actually charges a "SIM fee" for each new eSIM profile installed, and they don't allow reinstalls of my initial one...

Charging for a new eSIM is dubious even if a profile is reinstallable, but it's less of an issue for me, as I'd only have to do that if I lose a phone, or it fails to a point where I can no longer remove the installed eSIMs so that I can redownload them on another one.

That's an interesting experience and a valuable info.

But I wonder what would be the CEO's side of the story. I'm sure his behavior was bad, I'm not pretending the opposite. But maybe he also had reasons (misguided reasons, sure, but still reasons) to act as he did. Or maybe he did not have any reasons, it's also possible.

I've observed cases where indeed people were disturbing too much software developers.

But I've also observed cases where software developers were not enough aligned with the business side, despite them being 100% sure they were.

It's a tricky situation: being in the team means that you are not impartial, you don't have a remote view, you are only seeing one side of the story. I had situations where I've observed some non-dev team explaining their needs, then the software team went away, and then came back with something that was not what the non-dev team asked. Not only the non-dev team was indeed not satisfied, but I was agreeing to them: it was not what they explained, I was there, I understood what they said at the time. Worst, in the majority of the cases, the non-devs don't just say "no, it's incorrect", they try to find a compromise. Usually, it comes from the fact they have no idea what is possible or not, and just assume that if the devs did not do what they were expected, it means there are good reasons for that (either it is not possible, or that there were others things they did not know about, such as other requests from other part of the business). As someone with a lot of developing experience, I was able to see that the problem was that the devs just underestimated the need to fully understand the business side.

It's very tricky, because for a dev (or a dev-side person), it is very easy to just ignore that. If they ask for adjustment, it's "they don't know what they want". If they point at some requirements and underline that it does not mean what the devs thought it meant, it's "these requirements were badly written". And in the majority of the case, the business-side just makes do with the sub-optimal solution and the dev-side is considering that they successfully delivered. And similarly, I've also seen some devs being happy to be very productive, going very fast in developing something ... that the business did not need at all. When not adopted, it was again blamed on the business-side for not using the solution they've developed, rather than to wonder if what they have done was indeed productive or not.
