Why on earth would there be an arms race on something designed to deliver nuclear payloads to deep space? The only way I could see that happening is if we had nuclear armed deep space colonies? (See, the expanse)

In relative terms, that's obviously and most definitely true.

I looked into this because I find I want something I can stuff into a trouser pocket. The only reasonably viable android option was a Sony Xperia XZ2 compact, from 2018 on android 10. You can put lineage on it which is currently maintained, but that has the downsides of not passing device integrity which some apps will check, or being willing to constantly play cat and mouse to spoof it. Sony also apparently wipe a partition with a little DRM blob for the camera, which degrades some aspect of its post processing capabilities so image quality might be less. There's also the iPhone SE3 which is currently in support

I ended up getting a 'regular' sized samsung only slightly larger than the one it's replacing, but at least modern phones seem to be getting longer software support periods (assuming there's no nasty surprises included).
> eBPF is a technology that can run programs in a privileged context such as the operating system kernel. It is the successor to the Berkeley Packet Filter (BPF, with the "e" originally meaning "extended") filtering mechanism in Linux and is also used in non-networking parts of the Linux kernel as well.

> It is used to safely and efficiently extend the capabilities of the kernel at runtime without requiring changes to kernel source code or loading kernel modules. Safety is provided through an in-kernel verifier which performs static code analysis and rejects programs which crash, hang or otherwise interfere with the kernel negatively.

I'm so glad that buried deep in the HN commments in an individual who cares about the environment. In the other conversations I've seen about this no one mentions or thinks about fuel consumption. I feel like I'm taking crazy pills sometimes. It's like "Yay! We figured out another way to accelerate the disastrous consequences of climate change. Go us!"
XCode's assistant AI suggestions are 99% ridiculous, often don't make sense, don't compile, or have nothing to do with my project. Every once in a while it suggests a line or so that is fine. The biggest issue is I want code completion and it appends extra items that make no sense at all, requiring that I either backspace a bunch, or have to use a mouse to pick from the menu. I haven't used Copilot or one of the others, so don't know if this is normal or Apple's is just stupid.
It baffles me why an economist constantly making wrong predictions “is fine”. If their analysis leads to incorrect outcomes, what use is it? I think if you are good, you’re a trader and told to keep your mouth shut and make money. If you’re bad but well connected, it seems you become a professor or public figure/speaker.

The charts are handy all in one place, but if regularly incorrect, likely means looking at wrong data, or just using it wrong.

I’m sure he’s a nice guy and all, and this isn’t meant to be an attack on anyone, just an observation that I find frustrating. Seems to be very little to no negative feedback for some economists making bad predictions or analysis.
Less than 5 seconds seems pretty reasonable to me to call it zero down time.
> And I'd expect it to be more common on the higher end drives where someone might intentionally choose SMR to get more space, as opposed to the <=8TB market where SMR is a cost saving they don't want anyone to notice.

Yeah, "don't want anyone to notice" is probably a big factor, and in fairness the drive I mentioned was of the surprise SMR scandal era. (8TB was decently large then though I think.)

I guess fundamentally the hidden complexity of the firmware managing the storage also applies to SSD, but I think they've got more wiggle room there due to the inherent better performance of the media, and for whatever reason the average firmware quality appears better IMHO, with some notable exceptions: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=32031243

Most software is useful because a large number of people can interact with it or with each other over it. I'm not so certain that one-off software would be very useful for anyone beyond very simple functionality.

Not so much snow, as you have rapidly changing road conditions such as ice and freezing rain. And then factor in poor road markings and not always abundantly clear path finding.

The nice thing about EVs like they're using now. The electric motors are pretty good at responding and handling different road conditions, much faster than ICE vehicles since you can never quite predict what the engine is doing at a given moment.

If you graph economic progress on top of all this isn't it just saying that governments spend more when economic shocks happen?

Other countries are pretty instructive as well. For instance Germany had inflation during a period when they had a budget surplus (for over a decade prior to 2019).
The headline isn't really accurate, the article makes matters much clearer:

> A fact sheet on the order promises "immediate action" by the Justice Department to prosecute "terroristic threats, arson, vandalism and violence against American Jews" and marshal all federal resources to combat what it called "the explosion of antisemitism on our campuses and streets" since the Oct. 7, 2023, attack on Israel by Palestinian Islamist group Hamas.

They aren't just tagging random protesters, it's people who committed crimes during the protests. They would be losing their visas on that basis, not as a result of their speech or right of assembly.

My point is, we have used nukes, so we know exactly what the worst case scenario is, and that’s about 20-50 million lives(hitting Tokyo or NYC). Equal to the number of deaths during the Spanish flu or half of world war 2. I think the comparison helps us understand what the risk truly is. I think the world would panic and likely loose more lives through chaos than the actual impact.

> study what a neutral position looks like

There are no neutral positions in today's political landscape. I'm not stating my opinion here, this is according to most political positions on the spectrum. You suggested "Progressive" (but without hot button issues) as a way of signaling a neutral position. That may be true in parts of the valley tech sphere but it certainly doesn't hold in the rest of the U.S. "Progressive" is usually defined being to the left of "Liberal", so it's hardly neutral. Over half of U.S. voters cast their ballot for the Republican candidate. Almost all those people interpret anyone identifying themselves as "Liberal" as definitely partisan (and negative, of course). Most of them see "Progressive" as even worse, slipping dangerously toward "Socialist". And the same holds true for the term "Conservative" on the other side of the spectrum, of course.

No, identifying as "Progressive" wouldn't distance you from political connotations and culture warring, it's leaping into the maelstrom yelling "Yipee-Ki-Yay!" You may want to update your priors regarding how the broad populace perceives political labels. With voters divided almost exactly in half regarding politics and cultural war issues and a large percentage on both sides having "Strong" or "Very Strong" feelings, stating any position will be seen as strongly negative by tens of millions of people. If you're a CEO (or actor, athlete, singer, etc) who relies on appealing to a broad audience, when it comes to publicly discussing politics (or religion), the downsides can be large and long-lasting but the upsides are small and fleeting. As was said in the movie "WarGames", the only winning move is not playing.

Eh, we already have steath aircraft that could slip in past air defenses and drop a nuke with next to no warning. We probably have a stealthy hypersonic that can also do so. That doesn't negate a nations second strike ability.

Part of the reason the US, Russia and China have vast land based missile fields is to visibly show the enemy that they're gonna have to wipe out huge swaths of land with hundreds of nukes (and THEN sink our boomers) to have a successful first strike.

I think I noticed around ios 7 things were getting bad. buttons didn't look like buttons, on-screen controls started being hidden, and form trumped function. Then like you said, ports disappeared and to me "do the wrong thing correctly" started winning.

but the worst thing is that apple sets an example. The same "simplify for sales, but not usability" technique has happened to countless other products in many industries. all laptops have elegant looking keys that have no curve to fit and center your fingers. Tesla cars have a pleasing-looking design, but when you drive them, you can't lean on the touchscreen to hit targets, you don't have drive selection or turn signal stalks to help you get into a parking space easily, and "elegant simplicity" is "cost cutting for the peons".

sigh.

The integration also leads ro low prices though: A bug trinitron used to be $1500-$2000. Today you can get a 4k TV that is twice as big, much cheaper to run, and beats the 1080i that the largest tubes could support 20 years ago. The lower upfront coat just wins, especially when technology keeps improving so fast you'd rather get the new thing than repair the old one at, say, half the price

The AG's advisory is essentially a memo from the AG explaining how the AG thinks existing statute applies to a new technology. It's not new legislation or new case law, but it is worth paying attention to for various reasons.

The section of the advisory referencing disproportionate impact is quoting, nearly word for word, a portion of Cal. Code Regs. Tit. 2, § 14027.

So, this section of the advisory essentially amounts to the AG saying "using AI to do something illegal is still illegal".

That does not really answer your question, though.

> What kind of standard is disproportionate impact?...

The kind that does has been codified in CA and other jurisdictions' statutes for a long while now. This means that the standard is extremely well-litigated in the state's courts, and so the answer to "what is disproportionate impact?" is, I think, something like:

"That seems complicated; there's probably a rich case law that provides clarity in some situations but also highlights areas of ambiguity in other situations. If you're in it for profit, and have any questions, get a lawyer who specializes in that area of the law to review your specific circumstance; if you're in it for civics/curiosity, start with the statute then start reading significant case law or law reviews regarding that statute."

It's also the kind of standard that can attract flame wars... hopefully not here, though ;-)

I haven't had any issues from MyPy regarding speed. So performance issues did not exist whenever I used MyPy. Also not sure why I need incremental anything. I save a file and then I want it to be checked.

If I am not implementing a LS, then how is it of any importance, whether the type checker was designed with typing a LS? How does that benefit me in my normal projects?

If there are no semantic improvements, that allow more type inference than MyPy allows, I don't see much going for Pyright. Sounds like a "ours is blazingly faster than the other" kind of sales pitch.

Show HN: Insert Coin: An iOS / Android / web app to locate arcade locations
Hello everyone!

Six months ago, I took over the the Pinmyballs app, which is mainly known in the French-speaking world for locating public places with pinball machines. Initially, I wanted to shut it down and transfer the data to Pinballmap, but I felt like doing something different. I love arcade games as much as pinball, and there was no app to track arcade locations. So I decided to continue developing Pinmyballs by adding arcade games, as well as darts, billiards, and foosball.

The app was rewritten from the ground up, using Ionic framework (will be rewritten in React Native by the end of the year), and Symfony as back-end. And for obvious reasons, I also renamed it to Insert Coin.

Everyone can contribute and add locations and their game to the app. As the app launched recently, it misses a lot of locations, so don't hesitate to contribute and share the app around you if you want to!

- The app is available in six languages (English, Dutch, French, German, Italian, Spanish) and is completely free (no ads, no subscriptions)

- You can easily add locations you know about, games and comment about their state / condition

- You can find places around you for a particular game

- The games database may not be complete, so if you notice any games missing, feel free to let me know, and I’ll add them!

- You can save your favorite locations and receive notifications when games are added or removed from them!

- And more features to come!

The app is available on:

- Web: https://www.insert-coin.app

- iOS: https://apps.apple.com/app/insert-coin/id6664072981

- Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.insertcoin...

Currently, there are 2,700 locations and 12,000 games listed.
It’s a stupid idea.

1. The Supreme Court has already ruled that anyone held there has all the rights they would have if they were held in a jail in the continental US.

2. It would (probably) put the US in violation of their lease with Cuba, who would immediately cancel it - something they’ve wanted to do for 70+ years but previously had no legal method of accomplishing.

3. The weather is fabulous this time of year.

You're suggesting that DeepSeek was a Chinese government operation that gained access to OpenAI's proprietary data, and then you're justifying that by saying that the government effectively controls every important company. You're even chiding people who don't believe this as naive.

I think you have a cartoonish view of China. A huge amount goes on that the government has no idea about. Now that DeepSeek has made a huge media splash, the Chinese government will certainly pay attention to them, but then again, so will the US government.
