Roe purports to be about privacy. But it’s really about the second point you list, which is purporting to define when a fetus becomes sufficiently developed to warrant protection from the state. After all, nothing changes between conception and the day before birth from the point of view of privacy. Or heck, even the day after birth—you have a privacy right in your home, not only your person. So the “privacy” right isn’t holding up any weight. All the work is being done by the moral determination that a fetus in the first two trimesters isn’t sufficiently developed to warrant legal protection. Once you assert that killing an 8 week fetus is no different than having a body part removed, the work being done by privacy is trivial.

That latter question has nothing to do with privacy or the constitution. It’s a general moral judgment based on underlying biological facts. In that respect, Roe simply is an articulation of Harry Blackmun’s Methodist religious beliefs. The United Methodist Church came out strongly in favor of abortion legality in the 1960s. But there’s nothing in the constitution supporting the determination Roe reached and Roe didn’t even pretend there was.
Here in Germany I run an inverse of that for "am I in the wider halo of a larger city or am I in a truly rural environment": when approaching a metropolitan area, the outer urban halo starts where there are still farms, but many of them have switched to housing horses.
It's said easy. A look to Japan may help. Japan is one of the oldest societies in the developed world. Japan neglects immigration and has strict rules. Does it help the society?

That said, Japan has very different work culture than all other developed nations. But still.
>Wouldn't that be better as an optional library?

It would be better if the libraries were not the most optimal or good enough. In bun's case it is not just the minimal they are basically making everything as good as it can be.
Sounds like it would be fantastic for the kind of degrowth we need to do to begin to save the planet.

I have watch history off on YouTube, if I go onto the shorts tab on YouTube it says "recommendations are off, we rely on your watch history...".

It still shows me shorts from subscriptions on the subscriptions tab, which I don't mind. If you scroll on them it shows you ones from other subscriptions before stopping and showing that message again.

In searches it does show shorts, but will only let you scroll through ~5 before that message comes up again.

I really like this setup because I can see my subscriptions shorts, which are generally fine, and it doesn't let me spend more than like 2m scrolling.

Most languages don't offer the ability to arbitrarily grow the stack, so it should be straightforward to compute an upper bound on any given function's stack usage. C is a bit harder, you need to forbid alloca, as well as goto and setjmp/longjmp (because I think you need to ensure that control flow is reducible in order to do this analysis).

But the problem then is that the existence of recursion in every language means that even if you know the size of every function's stack, you can still have an arbitrary amount of stack usage due to recursive function calls, so you need to forbid recursion as well.

And that only gives you guarantees WRT to the stack, so you'll probably also want to forbid general heap allocations (possibly replacing them with some fixed-size static buffers).

Thank you for the research and the facts. My mind has been changed.
It’s awful and I’m pretty sad that it seems the entire nodejs community has adopted next.js as standard. All projects I’ve been involved with use it and none of them use any SSR at all.
Is there another example that show how memory allocation work with pointers and stuff ?
s3 is pretty much a de-facto standard, just like json like or not. Postgres also makes sense, it is the most widespread and community-liked db. What is the point of "optional libraries" tbh? It was a PITA in PHP back in the days and very inconvenient, prob most devs would prefer this way.

I feel like HN is on cognitive dissonance, they complain JS projects having too many dependencies and they also complain now when things are more integrated into the runtime because it increases vendor-lock and few extra megabytes (actually kilobytes according to the devs) to the binaries :/.

Lastly, big companies also prefer less dependencies, it is not just devs.

Correct.

I laugh a little every time I hear some folks immediately push the “Big Bad China is just trying to steal our data” narrative. My immediate reaction is, “Grab some tea and let’s sit down real quick, so I can tell you what some of our companies right here in America and our government do with our data.”

I know where you are coming from, but I want to point out that this is not the typical skilled immigrant experience.

I have met a couple of Americans with 10+YOE who have been imported to Germany with competitive salaries, like 150k€/year. They live in Berlin or Munich, are already partnered up, have a nice nest egg from their years working in the US, and just enjoy being expats on a little adventure.

This is not the typical skilled immigrant experience. If you start with 0YOE in Germany, it's much harder to go anywhere in life. And when you don't already have a well populated nest egg, you start getting anxious about your inability to accumulate savings. And a lot of jobs are unfortunately not in Berlin or Munich. A lot of these skilled immigrants end up in some 20,000 pop town, 1hr away from the nearest mid sized city. And then, if they come from non-western countries and they do not look European enough, that also adds something to the experience.
This is a random trash only on arm. I doubt they could get the crash to happen locally - most likely their developer machines were all x86 where it never crashed.

they should have handled crashes better - a problem they seem to recognize but not the issue here so not covered.
I would really like a product for like £40 that's essentially a very small (4" screen maybe? maybe smaller?) locked down android phone that's entire purpose is to run 2fa apps (maybe including banks), this would not only separate my banks from my phone so I can flash whatever OS I want to it, solve the convenience issue of needing 2 big phones to do this otherwise, and stop 2fa apps from leading to distraction.
> "structureless" groups which spontaneously organized around an opportunity and were initially effective [...] but succumbed to the dynamics

Even spontaneous groups must filter for Competence. This is fundamental.

From domain-specific skills to planning and managing the sustainability of the project, a spontaneous group must be more than superficial associates and barnacles.

For a humorously timeless example, see the revolutionary movement in Monty Python and the Holy Grail.

Thank You Jarred. I seriously dont understand why there is such a huge resistance in including those. Especially when they are faster and more memory efficient.
It is a solution when all your developers are bootcamped on react for 6 months and don't know how to run a proper back-end. Managers like it because their front-end react dev can add a back-end feature NOW and in 1 hour.
As soon as the stakeholders have a say in the technical implementation (other than financial and time constraints), you’re in a world of hurt.

Do the Republicans want us to be having this discussion? Will there be repercussions?
I disagree; I did similar projects like this in high school (not exactly like this; his is a true achievement). I did very well grade-wise and had a high GPA but I bombed the SAT because I didn’t understand that you didn’t lose the same number of points for questions you skipped. So the ones I didn’t have time to answer I just randomly selected, which resulted in a poor score.

I found out later:

1. How SAT scoring works
2. That you shouldn’t take the last SAT of the year since then you cannot retake it
3. I probably should’ve taken the ACT instead

I wish they’d prepared us in school for this, but they were too busy training us for standardized state testing since that determined their own budget.

Could I have gotten into MIT? Unsure; back at 18 I didn’t know MIT existed and this was early Internet times. It would have been nice if my high school mentioned it as an option.

In my case at least, doing projects like this and getting good grades didn’t automatically turn into attending any college I wanted. Either way, I ended up with a great career.

Anyways, kudos to the person who made this project!
I remember reading a positive xcode review on the app store that was something to the effect of: "so much better than the next one!"
I would say it's less of a defined end than that: it basically only exists because Notch was coming up to the official non-beta release and felt like there should be something resembling an ending to the game if he was going to call it 'done'.

Samwer brothers without their parents would end up writing PHP in Bucarest.

I have been using Quest for the past 3 years. Not once did I miss anything from the Play Store (as a daily Android user). You can go to Quest subreddit or other VR forums and find that most people think the same as me.

And that is exactly what Meta wanted. They don't want to rely on Play Store, and they managed to ship tens of millions of devices without it.

Each addiction has its own special properties.

The special properties of the addiction are what make it hard for the person to quit that is addicted.

These type of comparisons for social media seem like bargaining by the social media addict trying to find the least harmful addiction to frame their own addiction as.

I have quit social media, cigarettes, alcohol and I limit junk food far more than normal. Quitting social media has cut me off from many social circles and being in the know with even my own extended family.

But make no mistake though. Cigarettes are an order of magnitude harder to quit than any of these. Alan Carr's book is amazing because it is almost a type of hypnosis that gives you the will power to not cave when cigarettes start playing all the mind games of why you should just smoke one in the first month after quitting. You have to convince yourself it is easy and anyone can do it exactly because it is so hard.

Comparing social media addiction to cigarettes is just not helpful though. Cigarettes are much more addictive but social media is addictive in its own special way.

If anything social media and sex addiction have much in common. You can deal with the addiction by going cold turkey but then if you want to get back to a normal life you have to figure out something other than abstinence.

Germany had many industrial robotics companies. Not only KUKA, like Japan has.

The idea behind selling KUKA is, the very same narrative like in any startup. The robot itself has become a commodity. It was clear, that China will be cheaper in production of this commodity in the long term. The know-how is not in the production of such robots. The idea was to pivot more into integration. But that is very capital intensive. As big company you are limited in the possibilities to raise money. An alternative is to have a bigger company with big pockets to cooperate with or even selling the business and stay somehow as an independent business unit. I have seen this with small companies who needed to raise money. I have seen this with big companies.

BTW, one of the people involved in pivoting was one who in the 1980/1990 made the automation for the KUKA robots as a small engineering office. About a fews years late he got bought by KUKA when they discovered that this small engineering office had the whole knowledge and there was almost no knowledge within KUKA.
If it makes you feel any better, the vast majority of people working on AI stuff right now are building “me too” products - yet another chatbot, yet another knowledge management tool, yet another sales automation tool, yet another image generator. Almost all of them will be thrown out and ignored in a few years

Only 1% or less are truly working on the hard AI stuff, and AI research
To be honest, not really. I wanted to first successfully get my app published before even thinking about that. I would need to explain WHAT to improve and HOW to improve it for it to be useful and that I cannot do until I am more familiar with the project. But it is a good point.
I'm not superstitious. Well, maybe I'm a bit stitious.
Honestly, it just highlights how little traction Bluesky has. We tried it within our company's niche, but it's like a desert. Feeds that rarely get updated. 0 engagement. What's the point? Whatever you may think of the management, X does the job (and arguably better than before). You can just filter out the stuff you'd rather not see on your feed.

Also, I second the other commenter's mention of the lack of sports on BlueSky. That's a pretty large category not to have...

I like this analogy. I've had the thought many, many times over the last 8 years that many people seem to like breaking things because their perceived enemies will be unhappy.

I think, other countries would help these companies pivoting to defense/military applications. Munich in Germany is basically stuck during rush hour. Flying ambulance or cop car sounds good to me. And such application would be with high probability successful export product.

With compatibility break there was a decade of confusion, even the simplest print statement wouldn't work. I understand there were real reasons to do all that, but it did cause damage.

Steve Yegge put it better than I can[0]:

> the thing is, every single developer has choices. And if you make them rewrite their code enough times, some of those other choices are going to start looking mighty appealing. They’re not your hostages, as much as you’d like them to be. They are your guests. Python is still a very popular programming language, to be sure — but golly did Python 3(000) create a huge mess for themselves, their communities, and the users of their communities’ software — one that has been a train-wreck in progress for fifteen years and is still kicking.

> How much Python software was rewritten in Go (or Ruby, or some other alternative) because of that backwards incompatibility? How much new software was written in something other than Python, which might have been written in Python if Guido hadn’t burned everyone’s house down? It’s hard to say, but I can tell you, it hasn’t been good for Python. It’s a huge mess and everyone is miserable.

Why You Should Reconsider Your 'Big Tech' Job in 2025
I believe the emphasis should have been fixing the immigration process and in parallel removing all the violent illegal immigrants whilst leaving the working and tax paying illegal immigrants alone. Less damage to the worker base and less damage to society and giving companies a grace period to get into compliance. Companies should be given a way to help expedite the background check process and take responsibility for the employees.
This reminds me why I added server timing to the chrome dev tools.

The basic thing I instrumented in my projects was a count of calls to APIs and their total time. Same for DB access. Then push these out as server timings via http headers and see them in chrome.

Quick and dirty way to see what the server call was generally doing.

In addition to adding that to chrome dev tools, I had an extension that would consolidate all network requests for a given page and summarize them. Nice to show various teams how many darn db queries they were doing just to load a page.
Does it mean they didn’t want to invest more in OpenAI as they’re struggling to see a positive return? Or OpenAI tries to become more independent? Either way it looks like their relationship is pretty tense right now
> It's when I realize the events are scripted.

That's a good way of putting it. In the past when I realized I was dreaming, I would take advantage of the situation and change things, give myself superpowers, etc. But in recent years my few lucid dreams have had really interesting plots, so I consciously chose to let things be and just see where they go.
Wouldn't consider Frank Thelen rich in the sense it is relevant to AI. You need someone with billions and so on. SAP founders for sure.
Anyway agree, Germany has quite a few rich people. Although most of them are a bit under the radar or doing virtue signaling. None of them is willing to take huge risks and invest few billions in a robotic company - just don't see it.

Why wouldn't they update the SOA?
You could argue the same with Elon Musk. Just remember he was a given by his Fathers mining business in South Africa. He was doing imposter with Zip2. But he got in early with Peter Thiel and then finally became the Paypal mafia.
That reminds me of a technique in the Slow Productivity book by Carl Newport. The gist is, if you cannot control the flow of work, the best thing to do is to create a buffer and make the workload visible. So they can visualize how any new task is going to disrupt it.

Also KDE connect can be alternative to sending files if you use linux on desktop.
To be honest I had forgot that it was an option. I zeroed in on the other alternative from the get go since I was the developer of the app and its very limited in its usefulness. Did not want to create work for others when I thought I could easily do the work :)
