Great video, really appreciate the experiment design. I wonder if the same adhesive would perform well in situations that require them to flex?

I was helping a friend glue some PETG horns to a thermoplastic headband (long story) and some of the adhesives, particularly the superglue, worked well when the headband was stationery but cracked immediately when it needed to bend the slightest amount.

We ended up using Green Stuff 2-part epoxy clay as a physical "weld" between the PETG part and the thermoplastic (Worbla). AFAIK it held together but definitely not an ideal solution :)
I’m not disagreeing with you but let’s ask the question “experience for what”? Is it making a couple of dashboards, extract data from legacy systems into something more queryable, or generating a couple of expense reports? Or will they be making actual significant decisions affecting millions? How likely would that be?

Have you ever had to put in a 6-digit code from an Authentication app, you have 10 seconds left before it renews and you know if you type fast enough without any entry mistakes and no number discalculia you'll make it in time and if you don't well it's fine you'll get another number but you know you can make it if you just focus and in those few seconds getting those 6 numbers right is the goal and you feel anxious that you might not make it..

I believe I grew up in a cult myself, and one of the things I've concluded from that experience, and from leaving it, is that everywhere is a cult. Humans have a tendency towards cult-ish life, and if the cult is big enough we just refer to it as "society". People were as afraid (more or less) to leave the cult I was at, as people are around me now when they consider doing anything that is out of the norm.

By no mean am I trying to hint towards some conspiracy, or to say that all cults are equally bad (or good); Just to say that sometimes the word cult simply means "a less popular way of life than the one most people around me live by".

Recently, I developed Splinter (https://splinter-app.github.io), an open-source tool that transforms unstructured data for AI workflows.
Wow. That’s a refreshing take on the reducing the corruption angle.

If these programs are so small, why aren’t they going after the real grift? It’s too hard? Why the small, more relevant to citizens programs get cut first?

Because its easy to avoid the military spending and the black box that represents.
The situation is ugly because there is global state by design. But I don't see why the fact that the closure is stored in a mutable location would be a concern for you. Can you think of any conditions where someone would modify it? I'm not really seeing it, and I don't know what your alternative suggestion is going to be to stop them technically.

I can tell you when someone would modify a counter variable - every time it needs to be incremented. It leaves open a lot of room for bugs in unexpected parts of the code. Gating access behind a stateful function makes doing the wrong thing more expensive.
Please substantiate your claims. I am not 'cheering'. I am 100% prepared to be converted.

To me, software development is many things, but the inner loop is mainly characterized by two alternating modes: Trying things and Learning things.

The biggest hidden assumption I see is that we expect other people to be trying and learning things in the same way we do.

Experienced devs will write code to improve their own understanding, they will create tests to improve their own understanding, they will do research, they will do a lot of learning and all of that rarely gets talked about at standup or in a pull request. This work never shows up in a planning or budget meeting.

I see junior devs getting stuck hard on delivering production ready code - which is the WORK PRODUCT that we want; but that is not what the actual work of software development looks like. A lot of junior devs are hesitant to do throw-away work that does not get committed to source control - they feel like someone out there knows the answer and they just have to find them. And for a long time, that works - they can find someone to provide the answer they need, they can find a senior dev who glances at the code and fixes it effortlessly.

This whole thing is exacerbated by managers with no or minimal dev experience, who also confuse work product and tracked work items with the actual work of producing software.

(And if you're wondering who 'junior devs' is, it's me. I'm junior devs.)
None of that is the goal. That's the propaganda.
this is irrelevant to the GP's question
I have been using Duolingo for a couple years to learn some Mandarin. Its resources are pretty good, if a bit dodgy here and there (some occasional weird pronunciations or translations).

I'm really excited about a Cantonese resource though. I have a few Cantonese-speaking friends and I would love to learn some myself!
You should probably still try to sue each medical practitioner individually. Even in the 1980s, a doctor wouldn't interfere with something like preventing a mule from private lavatory use. If a new generation is dumb, there's only one recourse offered for fixing them.

I think it is more about how Musk needs to surround himself with young easily impressed and gullible minds, because anyone else would probably see through him all day. These young guys are probably afraid to speak out against him, or are sucking it aaaaall up as ordered by Musk. He will have chosen who gets to tag along.
Eliminating birthright citizenship is cut and dry an attempt at unconstitutional rescindment of the 14th amendment of the constitution.
Investors' faith in US bond and equity markets is, unironically, the most powerful immediate-term check on the current administration. The longer-term check is the midterm elections in 2026. If they really screw things up, as they appear to be doing, that's their deadline for fixing them.
Past efforts to do that kind of thing haven't worked, so I'm a bit down on the idea. What ends up happening is (1) the meta communication stirs up a flurry of objections, some relevant and many not; as well as people passionately restating what they feel about current affairs and/or how much they dislike what some other comment said; and at the same time (2) most people still don't see it, so it ends up not having the desired effect and just taking a ton of time.

Somehow, no matter how often we repeat something, the set of users who hear it always has measure zero (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25787443). That's why I mostly stick to answering specific comments with detailed explanations, and hope that at least some other users will see it.
I guess you're agreeing with me?
Same for me. My brain broke down somewhat, but luckily I am retired. I often ask AI like "What's the word for a smaller variant of something?", super helpful.
>I do not believe US policy makers and thought leaders think FGM is a good thing in the US

This may not occur to you, you assume other people are like yourself. That they work in an office and perform a similar job as your own. Given that scenario, if the turnout of Democrats is lower than you expect, the only reasonable conclusion is that some bosses are less reasonable than your own, and ducking out for 40 minutes to go vote at 2pm just isn't allowed! And therefor if it was a federal holiday, their office jobs would just call it off for that whole day, they'd vote, and the Republicans would never win an election ever again.

However, the people who would vote for Democrats don't have such jobs. The jobs they have are menial, they are working all hours of the day and night, someone has to cover that shift on election day, and if somehow one or another of them does have an office job, there's no guarantee that it will be a paid holiday at that employer. My own employer ignores several federal holidays and instead gives us off days for Easter (Good Friday) and some other Christian holidays.

Your political opponents would hoof it through a warzone to cast their ballot. Having to vote early (or late, or apply for a mail-in) isn't why your numbers are down.

Is that not very dead? I remember trying to order some gifpop stuff back in 2021/22 and they were gone by then. I see the "make your own" page on the site is broken, the blog entries are from 2017 (hover over the bottom of each one). The copyright's updated but I think that's automatic.

I only wanted a couple of images. From what I remember of gifpop, they originally did this using a machine that was intended as a wedding entertainment, guests take a moving selfie and it's printed for you, they repurposed it for selling art gifs - seemed like a great idea.

The fallback - IIRC you could buy preglued lenticular sheets in packs of 50 off amazon, and there was a site explaining how to preprocess your images (but it's not hard)...but it was going to take a bit of effort, I don't even own a printer - so I lost interest.
You’re describing the independent Inspectors General. That were summarily fired. Could they have had more power and independence? Sure. But there were real independent offices doing what you describe.

The problem is EM and DOGE are equating “fraud and waste” to “I think it’s wasteful”, which is a judgement the adversarial auditor should not be allowed to make.

True, but even the most vile loot box filled triple A slop game has better UI than the atrocities the OP refers to. At least there you can see some decent density of information and a hint of three-dimensionality, which is more than you can say about the "clean UI" desert landscape.

I don't think it's possible to answer this apolitically because their goals are political in nature.
The reason that there are so many threads right now about the US government is that it is undergoing a radical transformation, the likes of which have not been seen in at least 100 years in the US.

The President is gutting one major agency after another. He has offered a severance package to almost every single government employee, and has announced that massive layoffs are soon to follow. He has attempted to pause nearly all government spending. He has called for the annexation of Canada, Greenland and the Panama Canal, and refuses to rule out military force to achieve those aims (in the case of Panama, he has announced that he will definitely use military force, unless Panama willingly cedes the canal). He has initiated trade wars against Mexico, Canada, China and the EU, which collectively make up 40% of world GDP.

The tech industry is playing a major role in this radical transformation. Elon Musk not only funded Trump's campaign to the tune of hundreds of millions of dollars, but has now been given direct control over virtually the entire federal government. His people are going into major government agencies and taking over control of IT systems, locking out senior staff or even the entire staff, and doing what they want.

It's a major mistake to think that this is just another topic of the day that shouldn't have more than one or two front-page threads.
Why? A majority of voters asked for this. It was pretty explicit they were going to do some serious trimming of the fat. The campaign promises were no secret. Now, if Trump tried to fire him but he somehow still maintained his power within the government then that would be a coup.

I'm Jason, a full-stack engineer with an affinity for back-end development and cloud infrastructure combined with a background in systems administration. I have multiple years of experience in the healthcare and higher education industries. I recently created Providence, an open-source session replay framework leveraging AI technologies for user session analytics. Check it out here: https://providence-replay.github.io/
Yeah. Frankly driving a wedge between Trump and Elon would be the more effective political strategy, since it wouldn't exactly be uncharacteristic of them to spectacularly fall out, and Trump couldn't care less if DOGE exists or not as long as he's getting praise from the right quarters
I've actually only put about 50k miles on myself, but it's still perfect for my needs. Battery health isn't at 100% any more, but I still get an actual 250-300 miles of range.

Mechanically, the car is solid. Doesn't rattle or squeak. Clear, chip-free windows. No quirks of any kind, really. Pretty remarkable considering the number of miles on it. I have a Toyota van with fewer miles and with the exception of the bullet proof engine, the rest is barely holding itself together. Had a window literally just fall off it recently, as the glue had given up.

I know Musk's antics are impacting my ability to sell my own car - someone recently drew the word "swasticar" (which is pretty clever, I'll admit) in the layer of salt/dirt/grime one gets during the winter on my car. I have to think that had something to do with Elon.

Local used inventory has rapidly grown as well recently. I've been checking weekly for about a year, and today, there are probably 3x as many available on the market than there were a year ago. Obviously there are a lot of variables at play when it comes to used markets, but I doubt I'd be wrong to believe that Elon's behavior has contributed to that.

Resume: https://linkedin.com/in/andismith

I’m a product engineering leader who has built teams for start ups and scale ups looking for a new opportunity. I’ve previously worked with brands such as MINI, Heineken, Nike, Facebook and Formula 1.

I am looking for a Director of, VP, Engineering or CTO role. Thanks
Sure, but there's other things they can do. They can all stop trying to achieve bipartisan support on things, as the republicans do when they're in the minority. Senators can withdraw their unanimous consent. They can vote against everything. They can drag a bunch of reporters over to Treasury and start loudly asking questions

It sounds like some are finding a clue, like the ones who stomped down to USAID with reporters in tow today. They need to do more of this.

Just because they can't pass legislation doesn't mean they are out of ideas.

What you can do is write to or call them. Ask them to vote no on every senate confirmation. Ask them to not provide unanimous consent. Ask them to make a scene. Demand answers!
The argument is that it inevitably gets you to a state like Argentina was in, where the government repeatedly defaults until eventually you're forced to crash the economy for years to escape the loop. I'd rather have a flat GDP than 95% annual inflation.
Would contractors need to do any of this? Is DOGE using federal funds?

I'm not exactly clear on the situation but if they are just doing this for free and don't have access to confidential information, I could see that potentially being the key loophole here.
> but if you are implying that marxism has a static unchanging view of the individual then this is completely opposite of marxism.

It is all about class identity with Marxism. I think you may be conflating aspects of dialectical materialism with Marxism. The two while linked, are not the same. Marxism is a political and social philosophy that aims to change society, while dialectical materialism is a way of understanding the world.

Understandably there is some overlap, but there are distinctions and conflicts too in practice.

For Marxism, it ultimately comes down to class identity which is treated as unchanging in practice. Analysis is all about the class not the individual, which goes to classic Marx and Engels in their Manifesto. Praxis was a transformation of Hegel's Idealisms Geist as a method of change (albeit its been awhile, so I may misremember the details here).

Dialectical materialism unlike Marxism doesn't have unchanging class, instead it says classes support their class interest, sidestepping the issue, albeit allowing for some change but not much. A nuanced distinction.

Under Marxism, if you were born as a a worker proletariat you remain a proletariat, everything else is structured around this overdetermination. The dynamic change you mention is based in praxis and is only ever in relation to their unchanging class identity.

If you were born as a petty or hauty bourgeoisie, you are always one who supports them, regardless of change in circumstances, or free will, your perspectives are only ever first of that identity, and then may change through praxis but are always tethered to the former, and remain consistent and unchanging, where observation may deviate from ideology.

This is the fundamental issue, because people can and do change their class identities over their lifetimes, based in the structured relationship of the means of their production. But members of such have nullified, discredited, and claimed that these don't change. Its only right to take them at their word (in practice).

While variations have evolved over the years none really get away from the structuring element of class identity directing all other struggles. Marx uses the concept of overdetermination as does Hegel to describe this. All other struggles are in relation to this element. Its a static element, in most major derivations.

There are also significant conflicts. Identity politics for example is more rooted in idealism as is intersectionality than in Marxism's dialectical materialism, and there's a philosophical conflict between idealism, and dialectical materialism, that goes to the core of this philosophy. Discussions often results in reductionist behavior by its proponents on either side.

If I'm remembering correctly I believe Žižek covers these nuances in some detail, though not very satisfactorily overall in my opinion.

Digesting some of the things Zizek says, going back to basics in the Manifesto, and a number of other experiences led me to this rationale culminating in the observations I relayed before.
This is exactly right. The capability to do identity proofing via the USPS is in the code and available on GitHub for you to browse.
> Where are the Democrats on all this? There is hardly any opposition. Are they not interrupting their enemy while he is making mistakes? That would be the only explanation.

This is the kind of thing that someone who's on TikTok a lot says. The line being fed to people by the Chinese government to make the Democrats look bad as well. But the truth is the Democrats have no power. None. They can't do anything to stop this. Elizabeth Warren and AOC have just as much power as I do to stop Elon Musk and Donald Trump.
I tried to get Microsoft to stop signing kernel mode anti-cheat drivers with no result. Even when a vulnerable driver is found the vendor is given way too much time to deploy a fix while the vulnerable build is out in the wild with a valid signature. The signature should be revoked as soon as an exploit is found, it's an anti-cheat driver for video games not essential business/government infrastructure.
I would start with OpenToonz: https://opentoonz.github.io/e/index.html

It’s used by Studio Ghibli for making Anime and I know for sure that it supports tweening. And it’s free and open source.
Didn't they already do exactly that with Project 2025?
It's referred to as Elizabeth Warren's Direct File project.
Sure, they can do that. Then the average interviewer is going to recommend hiring the person who was the best at spinning a good story rather than the person who has the clearest explanation (which might easily come across as boring or simplistic). The problem here isn't getting through the interview; it is what the interviewer does next in the hiring pipeline.
Those may be the stated goals but I don't see any reason to believe those are the goals. Trust is earned.
