They rehired anyone willing to go back to work. No one was required to lose their livelihood.

The union's problem was that they assumed air traffic control was so important they could dictate terms and then they got called on it and lost. Public sector unions don't really work because the other side of the table is the government (and by extension the public), so the two possible outcomes are that the union gets screwed by the government or the public gets screwed by the union.

I noticed if I need something hard to find I have to do a dozen+ different queries (and sometimes not find anything because it doesn't exist). Both with Kagi and Google the result is the same but with Kagi I also rack up a bunch per one attempt to find something. And if I need something easy to find but lazy both Google and Kagi reliably show the first correct result.

So it's either unlimited or nothing. But since I know Google's search operators well I don't have trouble finding things if they exist so $10 per month is hard to justify. Plus, you're anonymous with Google but you're not anonymous with Kagi since you pay them.

But Kagi can be good for tech illiterate relative you want to shield from sus sites.
Rust has ManuallyDrop, which is exactly the functionality you’re describing. It works just fine for those types of programs. The speed of the two is going to be largely dependent on the amount of effort that has gone into optimizing either one, not on some theoretical performance bound. They’re both basically the same there. There are tons of examples of this in the wild at this point.
> Offer more compensation.

> Too much stress? I bet if you paid people so much money that they could work for 10 years and then either retire to a lower paying job, or retire entirely, people would deal with it.

I highly doubt that solving the problem with just money will get the right people.

A high salary becomes the goal in an of itself, and everything else falls to the wayside.

Do you really care about safety? Applicants may say they do, but only want to retire after 10 years and will lie through their teeth.

Money is a corrupting factor. I don’t like to take this side of the argument, since I want people to be paid fairly, but there’s something fundamental to seeing unpaid volunteers having the best intentions and most love for their craft

> Miri finds significantly more UB in unsafe Rust than Zig's checks do.

That's not a substantiated claim. Miri also runs very slowly.

> You aren't supposed to use unsafe Rust unless you really have to. I have been using Rust since 2020 and I've used it once, for 3 lines of code.

Cool, glad you haven't needed it. If you're ever writing interpreters or interfacing with external code, you'll need it.

> The entirety of all Zig codebases is unsafe

Zig is not 100% memory safe but it has compile-time safety features for vast majority of problems developers get themselves into with C/C++. Meanwhile, Rust's safety overhead has real trade-offs in terms of developer productivity, computational performance, compiler performance and binary size.

The semiconductor doesn't play significant factor here. It only becomes hot topics in past few years because of TSMC's lead on its process, but really doesn't have any direct relationships.

In other words, current situation is a result of U.S. "Asia-Pacific Rebalance" strategy and military deployment over the first island chain [2] that China wanted the island regardless of TSMC.

I’m surprised they went the separate app route rather integrate it into the Create New functionality in Calendar.

Seems like the main reason I’m seeing in the comments is the event management portion of it, but much like the redesigned Inbox in Mail, could have been an interesting opportunity to rethink the UX of Calendar.
I think it's now a historical fact that we in fact don't, as it's now virtually certain that the Artemis program, with all that knowledge available, will at the very least take longer to send people to the Moon, than the Apollo program did with no prior knowledge at all.

Somebody once claimed that the problem isn't that Johnny can't read, or that Johnny can't think, but that Johnny doesn't even know what thinking is, which is certainly a correct observation, but he incorrectly blamed it on the American schooling system.

But Johnny doesn't know what thinking is the same way that somebody who was born blind doesn't know what seeing is. You don't have to be taught to think, you just do. You figure things out, then you learn that others also know them. Or, sometimes that they don't, and know something completely different about the thing for whatever weird reason.

And such a person can live their entire life without thinking, convinced that being smart is simply about learning more and faster, and if they study hard, they will understand the topic on that deeper level like the old masters did, and perhaps they will also contribute something new one day.

But the thinking never comes.
The argument I provided in the message starting this subthread that you answered, was to repeal the Jones Act COMBINED with enacting other subsidies and investment to revitalize US domestic shipbuilding and the maritime sector. Merely repealing the Jones Act without any of the other measures would indeed lead to a quick collapse of what little is left of the US civilian maritime sector.

(Nuclear option: US Navy ensures Freedom of the Seas only for US flagged vessels. Your Liberia-flagged ship gets attacked by pirates, or even some state actor? Ask the Liberian navy to come to your help. And no, this isn't really a serious suggestion that would be in the US interest.)
>>The idea that China is a major security threat is basically brand new

You're kidding right?
With a 64 bit pointer you could make it bit addressable.
Cybernetics was promoted as an alternative to market price discovery. Central planning removes or disrupts decentralized price signaling. This results in misallocations of resources in planned economies. The Soviets also briefly experimented with Cybernetics, but were unable to make it work. It was an attempt paper over fundamental failures of Marxist economics with technology.

DOGE, has thus far, focused on cutting spending. Elon has spoken about his hope to increase productivity in the private sector by cutting the public sector. Understand that from a market perspective, public sector spending is regarded as a misallocation from the productive private sector, because no price signals can confirm the value of spending.

While some will dispute that it is possible for the public sector to optimally allocate resources, without price signals, we are unable to confirm this. Typically from this point, advocates of public spending will appeal to a subjective "greater public good" which conveniently, is only known to the allegedly altruistic proponents of public spending. This isn't to say that market pricing always creates perfect outcomes, but that the moral hazards are generally less and the increased productivity benefits all participants.

DOGE on the other hand, is pointing to the corruption and misallocation of resources at the hands of the proponents of public spending.

In a word, no. The two concepts are diametrically opposed. Maybe things will shift in the future, but thus far they have focused on cutting. Hope this helps.
I think this mostly comes down to (1) people are more aware of Nazi Germany and thus its easier to use that context than another and (2) the Nazis were extreme even by comparison to their contemporaries and thus have been (presumably) studied the most.
> It’s an example of something that I’d seen rumblings of in left leaning media: that DEI was being implemented in the laziest and stupidest possible ways

That's not news; it's been true for several decades. There isn't another legal way to do it.

The least harmful thing you can do, assuming you need to meet hiring quotas, is to specify that you have X slots for whites and Y slots for nonwhites, and then hire by merit into those separate groups.

That's so clean that it was outlawed very quickly. So instead, you still have X slots for whites and Y slots for nonwhites, but you have to pretend that they're all available to everybody, and you have to stop using objective metrics to hire, because doing that would make you unable to meet quota.

And you have to call Asians "white".
Yes. But what is happening now isn't speaking the truth, it's just causing chaos for chaos sake. Forget the DEI topic itself. From a managerial point of view, does this look like good management to you? Is this leadership you would want to work for with all the abrupt decisions that keep flip flopping? Does it instill confidence in you that they actually know how to manage anything?
Well add a mid ship point in Mexico, Canada, or Japan.
i dont think you can make a union that has an error enum tag. I dont see why the in-out has to be dependent on the error.
I mean that's a really fake problem. How many times per line of code do you actually need to name variables and how many of those times you're shadowing a previously defined var. I'm guessing a very small amount.
Agreed - I think we say similar things. I am mostly suggesting that authoritarians currently live in all sides of the aisle in our government right now. And they’ve all been ratcheting up in intensity, getting us used to “their” version of it. This latest jump being by far the most severe and scary.
Is it?

https://www.census.gov/library/visualizations/interactive/ag...

Look at 1980's population pyramid. Look at 2020's. 1980 is how societies with mild population growth look. 2020 is how populations with below replacements look (see the graph end?)

It doesn't matter how many Americans are under 30. It matters how many are between 20 and 60. And my comment was about "coming up". Over the next 10 years.

There is a very significant shift in our populations, all across the entire planet. The US isn't as bad as some regions, but it's still bad. Moving from "lots of young people" to "the same amount of young people as old", means more taxes, fewer people working in society, and so on.

Older people require more doctors, too. So you have fewer people in the working pool (as a percentage of the overall population), but with doctors you need more, the more aged your population is. And it's not going to get better, it's going to get worse and worse, with such low birth rates. A downward spiral.
Not to the extent C++ modules have improved compile times, as already visible in VC++ and clang/cmake/ninja latest.

Yes, Rust compile times have improved a lot, still I get better ones in C++, without having to reach out external tools.

Show HN: I Built an AI-Driven Radio with Live Hosts (Yoodio)
I’ve been working on Yoodio, a generative AI radio app that curates dynamic playlists, provides live commentary, and includes local news updates—all hosted by AI DJs with distinct personalities.

I built this because I’ve always enjoyed the storytelling aspect of radio, but found modern streaming services too impersonal. With advances in AI, I saw an opportunity to recreate that experience dynamically—giving users a personalized, always-on radio station tailored to their taste.

We’re currently in beta and need 25 iOS users (Spotify Premium required) to help refine the experience before a wider release.

WTH they were talking about Rust and Zig, they did not even mention C++ and you come with "if your metrics is blah then C++ is superior, checkmate!", completely ignoring C++ is a monster of complexity while Zig is basically simple as C.
> makes me think we are in a war

Dr Pippa Malmgren (political advisor) also pushes the idea that WW3 is on-going, and it will look nothing like WW2. She appears on podcasts once in a while and has a blog. Not sure if I care for calling it a war if it doesn't look like a war, but there sure are human conflicts all over the little ball of life now.
The bar wasn’t lowered at all. What happened was that the FAA stopped giving preferential treatment to a separate group—namely, CTI graduates—by replacing their streamlined path with a flawed biographical screening. Every candidate still has to pass the same rigorous training and certification.
Even if price and energy is 10x it will not slow down AI development much once the Chinese government starts pouring in big money.

> So why why do you support explicitly not doing those things when the livelihood of 300 million people depend on the economy being stable?!?

Culture warriors only care about about their "side" winning. It's not an intellectual battle, but an emotional one. Rules be damned, their side is winning and dishing out retribution for, and rolling back decades of defeat on the battle for social values - civil rights, race mixing, gay marriage, LGBTQ rights, and the gall to elect a black president, BLM, #metoo, etc.
It's also hard to forget once you've set it as your default browser. So I imagine that it'll mostly benefit people on the limited (300 search/month) tier, where you might want to ration your searches
Twitter is... running... but the kind of disruptions that happened there hit differently at country scale. For example, Musk fired so many people they just let critical systems go offline and certificates expired. Not the end of the world when we're talking about accessing tweets, but lapses like this at the federal level means systems critical to people's health and safety go offline, leading to security breaches and death. It's a different ballgame entirely.
Tongue in cheek, the instinctive response of government institution employees used to be also to produce a lot of cellulose (here: paper) and pile it together.
China has a lot going for it. The right investments in green energy and EVs is maturing now, allowing them dominate basically 75% of the world market for energy production and vehicles (without local competitors). They are also making investments right now in AI and robotics that are already beginning to pay off. The US as a market doesn’t mean much to China anymore, and Trump’s aggressive treatment of enemies and allies alike are bound to push more countries into China’s corner.

Trump is basically dismantling the world-leading US’s influence and handing it over to China on a silver platter.

Make sure you get enough sleep and make slow rational decisions.
Kagi used to have limits on all plans, and I feel like associating cost to typos is a bad experience that you'd never have on ads-supported engines. Even now on starter plan (300/month) a mistyped query would cost you $0.0166 each.

Now I use the unlimited plan and so I search first, spellcheck later. Or sometimes it corrects it for me.
Somehow "deep" has acquired the connotation of "bullshit". It's a shame—I'm very bullish on LLM technology, but capital seems determined to diminish every angle of potential by blatantly lying about its capabilities.

Granted, this isn't an entrepreneurial venture, so maybe it has some value. but this still stinks to high heaven of saving money rather than producing value. One day we'll see AI produce stuff of value that humans can't already do better (aside from playing board games), but that day is still a long way off.
President is unilaterally shutting down federal agencies. If this goes on there really isn't a constitution anymore, not in practice anyway.
It always matters to some degree but you can spend much much more to get an edge for national security. 10x maybe 100x compared to the free market but not infinite.
I don't get why lives are at stake here. Surely the consequence of reduced ATC coverage means less flights moving through the area, not the same amount of flights being managed by fewer people?

There's only additional risk if you treat the amount of planes in an area as some kind of inevitable force of nature. If an area isn't safe because of a lack of staff, flights can be canceled to reduce the load on remaining staff without impacting safety.

Sucks for the people who bought a ticket, but a canceled flight is a lot better than dying in a plane crash.
You are using Git in a non-automated way, basically, as a substitute for rsync (you never edit history, you only append to it, you don't deal with a possibility of multiple remotes, you don't deal with modular projects and you don't automate anything).

At least, this is what it looks like from your own description. This is, probably, what most people do with it most of the time. And the weird corners will be found when they need to automate things, or when they want to deal with modular repositories, or history rewrites. These aren't everyday tasks / not for everyone on the team, but, these things do happen, especially in smaller teams, where there's no dedicated infra person or group these can be delegated to.
We are at the tail end of a 50 year bull run powered by declining interest rates. Maybe ZIRP is the new normal and private industry R&D investment stays high, but I don't think we should gamble our status as an economic, scientific, and technological powerhouse on that and gut our government financed R&D programs.

Further more, my wife works in biotech so I have seen first hand the compromises one has to make to secure private funding. They care about things like market size and revenue potential when making these investments, which means you end up with most of the money flowing towards diseases that largely affect rich people and solutions that are either expensive or recurring. And lets also not forget that almost all of these companies are working off of or spinning out from research programs that were funded by the government. I have yet to meet a single company where that wasn't the case.
Well, the FAA also leaked the official answers to the biographical screen to black interest groups so that they could teach black applicants to cheat on the screen.

I trialed Kagi.

I liked it, the results were good, no ads, gave me access to Google without being tracked.

I would pay for that, except they block Tor, and I normally use Tor.
Yes i know, i have wrote some FnMut closures muself. I meant, function composition should work like Lisp or Haskell, it should be very easy and intuitive, no boilerplate also. Closures in Rust, feel a lot like a hack compared to functional languages.

The way i put it, is that Haskell is a language with very strict type system, while Rust has very strict type system, and strict scoping. Strict scopes mean that an Fn closure has to be different from a FnMut closure, which also means several other complications when it comes to async.

This trade off is fine with me, but for several other people it doesn't worth it.

Not that on-topic, yet the direct access page for the book [1] looks really rough style wise yet has fantastically annotated HTML. An inspect-element on the title and author block shows a ton of itemprop attributes and itemtype schema definitions for stuff as specific as alternative title information and author details including birth date and split first and last names. Downright aspirational levels of tagging, I wish that quality of care about metadata were everywhere on the web.

Which is why you need to take away the mirage so they stop chasing it and go find actual water.

Having them leave the app isn't any worse than having them never like anyone they could actually land. Having the ones with impossible standards go malign your competitors could even be to your advantage, because then the competing apps get a higher proportion of the women who never reply, whereas the thing you need to make your app work is to have the women who do reply.

You fell into the instant trap I was talking about by equating DEI to “hiring quotas.” That’s a lazy and stupid approach to the problem of increasing opportunities for people from disadvantaged backgrounds. The solution is, unfortunately, much more difficult and requires work across society to achieve it.
In AWS you could have quite complex things as stuff like Lambda and EC2 have free tiers.

But it's also not really relevant to the main point of the article which is the risk of large surprise bills from eg runaway feedback loops and DoS attacks.

Forced relocation is actually considered genocide of done with genocidal intent.

With Trump it's hard to tell, but I'd say Netenyah and Israel has been operating with genocidal intent and considering Trump said this sitting next to him, then yeah I'd be inclined to classify this as genocide.
