that it was somewhat careless and unsafe and possibly discouraged

This is what I mean. Clearly, people are unfamiliar with what actions certain military/government pilots are able to take in that airspace. It's rules. It's not about being encouraged or discouraged or overworked or underworked or rainbow farting unicorns. That's not how ATC works.

I would want to change the rules that allow military pilots to do this sort of thing. Or at least, have a reasoned conversation about why it's necessary to allow them to do this sort of thing. But that sort of conversation is difficult. So everyone wants to talk about everything else instead. The issue being that everything else is very likely not the root problem.

I hope when the reports do come out we can stop this nonsense about ATC, or Reagan being a moron, or civilian airliner holding patterns or whatever else and actually have the hard sit down on that issue.
>I've heard horror stories from both men and women from online dating, and I've only had great exeriences from it. Some people find me attractive, and at the time I was very active and fit, so I usually got past the swipe test.

How old are you / how long ago was this? I've been active on-and-off on the apps for the past year; and once you are over the hump of getting consistent matches I feel like the apps create poor behavior that really isn't measured by these companies.

I think being stuck in "situationships" is something that doesn't come out of the data but is caused by dating apps. It's very hard for me to get people to commit (or worse, just give me a hard no), which led me to casting a wider net. Potential partners are reluctant to tell me "I don't like you", and will either ghost or just keep playing along because it's something to do. I started to adjust my behavior by dating multiple people at a time - this eased the sting of wasting time on someone but then I became less sure if I wanted to commit to someone (e.g. I need a date to event X, I'll give Alice 2 weeks, and she doesn't respond so I ask Bobette day of, which pisses Bobette off because she feels like a second option).

I've also had issues where women rarely advertise upfront what they want is a hookup (for obvious reasons), but then I spend 2-3 weeks courting a woman who doesn't have the guts to tell me she didn't see a future with me.

If your goal is a long term relationship, even if you get matches, it's still a mess and I feel the whole rating curve distracts from that.

A doctor shortage cannot be solved with more money, sadly! It needs to be solved with political / regulatory means, allowing more people go through the hospital training / practice programs and become doctors.
Nope. Were you alive in the 1990's? It was completely different. Microsoft froze innovation in the industry. Nobody does that today.
Now, looking at supposed inter-generational CPU performance increases between Cortex-A76 up to A720 (as presented on wikipedia), that adds theoretically to ~50% increase at the same clock frequency, so I guess it's plausible.
three selfish reasons everyone should be in favor of expanded medicaid (ie in favor of everyone having access to healthcare):

* healthy people are able to work and pay taxes

* when people don’t have access to regular care, they end up in the ER when things get really bad. All the rest of us pay the cost of those visits

* access to care (particularly vaccines like flu or covid) means less spread of disease and leas exposure to disease for the rest of us

I can understand that. Having said that some topics (history) are surprisingly easy to pick up articles with lots of background and etc. If you look up a battle you'll get a short history of the war, days before the battle, explanations why say a given soldier might struggle and etc.

Other topics are almost dictionary level simplistic.

The mobile ad industry is weird, and has some perverse incentives. Good games don't advertise (they don't need to). Games that hook the users just enough that they can show them more ads tend to plow that money right back into advertising to get more users. Those are the ads you see 99% of the time, and they're not really targeted. They're just people who know that the average 15 second interstitial will net them $0.006 in revenue, so they bid for it at $0.005.

Are there whales that spend $1m / day in advertising. Absolutely, 100%. Are they running at all times? No. We typically see that kind of spend from a single advertiser around 30 days out of the year. They're short campaigns, typically around a launch of a big title, and they always try to target as narrowly as they can to maximize their impact.

You're right about it using IP geo-location to guess where you are and what language you want. We also use that to determine if we should show you the GDPR disclosures. But try looking at ads on a Xiaomi phone versus a Samsung and you'll see a different set of ads, because one of those purchasers tends to have more disposable income.
Then we are looking at the wrong (meaningless) statistics. The while point of stats is to turn data into meaningful distillatios of trends so that we can act upon them. If plane crash deaths are increasing and its not shown in the stats, then we need better stats no?

> but that's not anywhere close to what's happening with "ETF rebalancing" or PFOF. It's perfectly legal, for instance to speculate on whether TSLA or whatever is going to make it into the S&P 500 and "front run" that. It's also not clear why such trades would be immoral or unfair.

I never said trading a stock ahead of it being added or removed to the S&P 500, or between the announcement of it being added or removed and index funds actually purchasing it is illegal, immoral, or unfair, or less acceptable than any other trade.

Just that it's front running. And then you asked if there were examples of illegal front running, so I provided those --- which aren't examples of trading ahead of index funds, because trading ahead of index funds isn't illegal.

I'm not really sure what you're asking at this point.

Yeah, the compiler was started in 2019 when zig wasn't nearly as viable of an option. On top of that, you don't necessarily know what you want until you build something.

I'm part of the core team, and I'm honestly still a bit surprised we're switching to zig. I think it makes sense, it just kinda finally aligned and was decided now. I guess enough technical debt piled up and the core of the language was clearly discovered. So we really know what we want now.
Ask HN: How Much Are You Spending on Your Database?
Hey HN,

We’re running a developer-driven research project on how teams are using and paying for managed databases (AWS RDS, Neon, Xata, Supabase, self-hosted).

- How much do you actually spend on databases?
- What problems do you face with cost, scaling, or HA?
- What’s your biggest frustration with your current setup?

If you use PostgreSQL, InfluxDB, ClickHouse, or Redis, we’d love your insights!

The general problem here is that we need to do something about the government contracting process. It has been thoroughly captured by large government contractors who do mediocre work for enormous sums of money while excluding anyone who could do better from the process through corruption and red tape.

Which in turn means that important systems become frozen in time because upgrade attempts become boondoggles that can't meet requirements until they're so far over budget they get canceled, or never attempted.

One of the major problems that should be fixed immediately is that the government pays for code to be written but then doesn't own it, which makes them dependent on the contractor for maintenance. Instead they should be using open source software and, when custom code is necessary, requiring it to be released into the public domain, both for the benefit of the public (who might then be able to submit improvements to the code they're required to use!) and so that maintenance can be done by someone other than the original contractor.
It is going to be "find out" for a lot of people soon.

> the default (which I've never messed with personally) essentially considers commits in tracked branches from remotes to be "immutable", meaning that anything purely local is "mutable"

The default for what's immutable is actually `main` together with untracked remote branches [1]. I agree that what you suggested should be the default though. You can change it by adding this line to your `jj` config:

[revset-aliases]
"immutable_heads()" = "builtin_immutable_heads() | remote_bookmarks()"

(To edit your jj config, run `jj config edit --user`.)

You realize USAID has been a conduit for CIA activities pretty much since its establishment? I mean the hint is the fact its head sits on the National Security Council. Why does a friendly aid organization need a seat at that table?

USAID played a huge role in the Vietnam War by supporting things like “civil defense forces” arming villages against Viet Cong, land reform and “open arms” program to get defectors from the North.

https://www.archives.gov/research/foreign-policy/assistance/...

It had little to do with no strings attached foreign aid. It’s mostly been an arm of US covert activities in other countries (providing cover) and a massive, massive slush fund for the CIA (hence the billions going to “undisclosed recipients”).
Undoubtedly. I agree 100%. I still think that Apple needs to consider how accessible Facebook is/was if they want to produce a product capable of replacing any part of it.

Like what? I use Backblaze B2 to backup all my non-Apple stuff and that's $6/TB/mo. iCloud's 2TB plan is $10/mo, so actually cheaper per TB, but with Backblaze you only pay for what you use so it may be cheaper. But pricing is pretty comparable, and I can't even imagine what a PITA it would be to use B2 for Apple stuff, so certainly seems like a good value. Are you saying there are even cheaper solutions that also have good Apple integration?

It may be that this only happens immediately after jj git init.

That does not match my experience at all. You obviously have to use your brain to review it, but for a lot of problems LLMs produce close to perfect code in record time. It depends a lot on your prompting skills though.

Read about autism treatment in red states. I’m not going from no evidence here, I’ve been deep into all the cracks, in trying to get my son from level 2 support up to a functioning human, I know what’s at stake and what each political party has actually done in their spheres of influence and I’m horrified at the things Republicans say about autism and care for autistic people. I don’t trust trump or musk as far as I can throw them tired together on this topic, and even if their word is to be accepted the downright reckless way they’ve been doing things is evidence enough that they don’t care about the damage they do.

1. closing USAID, he can't do that, it's has to go through Congress

2. Given Musk and minions full access to federal and private records, breaks FISMA and CFAA

4. The Spending Freeze that he backed out of, the one that would have required an Act of Congress

5. his upcoming attempt to end the Department of Education and defund it, without Congressional Laws behind it.

6. Firing inspectors without giving Congress 30 days notice to review the action

Obviously yes. Censorship is not something we can pick and choose from.

There would not be a need for that if people agreed that censorship is wrong. As long people see some censorship as good, rather than a lesser wrongs, the trend of ever more censorship will just continue and this kind of events will continue to occur and at larger scope. Censorship is a kind of political violence that once accepted only expands until the social rules totally breaks apart. It can't exit as just a rule for the government, it must be something that people inherently support as a concept.

Is it about hosting apps on different domains and using a powerbox between them? Or is it something more? Why does sandstorm use capnproto for instance?

In our framework for instance, instead of capabilities, we implemented "invites", which people can send to each other. If an invite grants you readLevel access to a document, you'll be able to see it even before you log in and create a user account. But if you want to get the full access to write etc, you'll have to create a user account and accept the invite as that user.

IMHO, I would agree with you.

I think chat is a nice intermediary evolution between the CLI (that we use every day) and whatever comes next.

I work at Augment (https://augmentcode.com), which, surprise surprise, is an AI coding assistant. We think about the new modality required to interact with code and AI on a daily basis.

Beside increase productivity (and happiness, as you don't have to do mundane tasks like tests, documentations, etc), I personally believe that what AI can open up is actually more of a way for non-coders (think PMs) to interact with a codebase. AI is really good at converting specs, user stories, and so on into tasks—which today still need to be implemented by software engineers (with the help of AI for the more tedious work). Think of what Figma did between designers and developers, but applied to coding.

What’s the actual "new UI/UX paradigm"? I don’t know yet. But like with Figma, I believe there’s a happy ending waiting for everyone.
