Obviously you're aware of this, but even swapping areas within a center isn't a plug and play process. Most people have no idea the level of effort required to control, between flight following, separation, LOAs, diversions, weather, and answering "how are the rides today?" or "is higher any smoother?" every 4.7 seconds.
I don’t feel like the comparisons to Hitler are useful, at least when talking about the current US administration.

There are lots more recent examples — Russia in the early 2000s under Putin, Hungary under Orban, South Africa under Apartheid — where democratic norms were gradually eroded, and the international community just sort of sighed and said "oh well, the people have spoken".

That's a valid concern, but only for a rather infinitesimal minority of people. Pretty much the definition of a "corner case", so rather irrelevant on the whole.

> I said I wasn't speaking for Zig specifically

Lol, you are right. My brain just skipped that part somehow.
>Zig’s comptime feature gives a lot of the power of C++ templates. This makes it easier to implement a lot of libraries which are just a pain to do in plain C. Even seemingly simple things like a generic vector are annoying to do in C, unless you abandon type safety and just start passing pointers to void.

I get it, thanks. in C you have to cast everything to (void *) to do things like a generic vector.

>I believe Zig even has some libraries for doing more exotic things easily, such as converting between an array of structs and a struct of arrays (and back).

yes, iirc, there was a zig thread about this on hn recently.
What a needlessly toxic take.

> People who can't wake up without an alarm, should be late for things.

> People who are busy, clearly need to be punished!

> Punishment is the best way to change behavior, it's why I always hit my dog!

> Humans are better at remembering and scheduling things than computers are, obviously we should require humans do these types of things even when it would be trivial to do so programmatically.

> I can punish someone, so I should be allowed to!

Or... you could not be a dick, and go, huh, that would be a very nice thing to do to help out your fellow human! I'm glad someone else is willing to help someone else out just because it's the nice thing to do!

> Giving people a free pass for not paying attention to their own finances is exactly how you end up with people that are even worse at managing their finances than before.

[citation needed]... because I'm pretty sure you just made that up, and it's not true at all.
The last I heard, Rust had issues with freeing memory when it wouldn't need to, particularly with short-lived processes (like terminal programs) where the the Rust program would be freeing everything while the C version would just exit out and let the operating system do cleanup.
> And forgo the revenue?

There's no revenue. The postage fees you pay (if you pay them) on Chinese goods are paid to China Post (or whatever Chinese shipping company), and USPS doesn't see a cent of it. And still has to deal with a frankly insane amount of packages from China.

It's not just a US problem. PostNord (Scandinavia) imposed a mandatory fee on all packages arriving from China until they reached an agreement with China Post (?) to get some of the money people pay for shipping
I don't think it's the case that there are many conditions with only single treatment option. "Lower the price or we let our people die" probably isn't right, but "Our cost benefit analysis shows, at this price point, therapy X is preferable. If you want us to use your drug your prices need to be lower."

Presumably the government also has the option to permit purchase of pharmaceuticals from other countries. "Oh, you've raised the cost of X? That's okay, we'll buy it from licensed suppliers in the EU for a tenth of the price."
Rather than thinking in terms of "left vs. right", I think in terms of "extreme left vs. moderate left vs. moderate right vs. extreme right". I support moderates over extremists. I support democracy and rule of law. I care about this more than I care about left vs. right.
Every language becomes a kitchen sink with enough time on the market, even C, people really should learn about the standard and the myriad of compiler extensions, K&R C was almost 60 years ago.

C++ already has almost Rust macros, with a mix of compile time execution, concepts and traits, without requiring another mini-language, or an external crate (syn).
They’re not both the same level of bad currently, I agree.

But they have both been consistently working to normalize their authoritarianism. I mentioned the 2020 protests in another sibling comment, which I think is a good example.

This is just the next step in an ongoing escalation, but yeah it is a big jump.

Scary times.
Yes. Or sort-of, at least. China is making serious military investments that seem targeted at achieving a capability to invade Taiwan while fending off US efforts to foil such an invasion. In contrast, I've seen no indication that the US is seriously considering taking Panama or Greenland by force except for the bluster from the chief blowhard. Still, that mark of shame will take a long time to wash off.
> The idea that China is a major security threat is basically brand new.

And as far as I can see, that idea comes from China simply having grown its economy to a size comparable to that of the USA, nothing else?

But everyone during the Chinese miracle growth (from 1980's to today) expected China would've become the largest economy in the world by the 2020's. I guess people just didn't really take that seriously until it actually became true?
> Who are these billionaires from underprivileged backgrounds ?

Larry Ellison, Oprah, François Pinault, Howard Schultz, Jan Koum, Kenneth Langone, Ralph Lauren, Sheldon Adelson, JK Rowling, George Soros, John Paul DeJoria… to name just a few.

Q: You didn't do X, so Zig will never be able to track X

A: Maybe. Only way to know for sure is to fork this (or, hopefully, a 'real' successor) and fail. However, consider that "trivially" it should be possible to externally annotate every zig file with lifetime/type annotations identical to that of Rust and run "exactly the same" analysis as Rust and get the same memory safety as Rust.

it appears the clr author anticipated you: you didnt fork it, try, and fail, so you have ceded the authority to credibly make your speculative complaint

> Zig isn't meaningfully different in expressivity

it is meaningfully different in expressivity at the AIR level. AIR looks nothing like c, c++, zig, or rust.
it's quite true. the convergence of all archs to transformers is well documented by karpathy. SSMs were once touted as transformer killers, but increasingly look like just optional supplements.
> And those men are also going to match with 95th percentile women and then choose them over the 60th percentile women anyway unless they're only looking for a hookup

That’s exactly what happens. Those guys have plenty of hookup opportunities, and the women have the mirage of being able to get any guy, just for some reason all these jerks only want sex, but somehow someday one will stick
Yes that’s its main issue. Still better than the hell site.

1/ it’s an open protocol, 2/ if anything it’s an excellent intermediary step towards something different, 3/ it feels like the caring Twitter from 2010 already, and that’s amazing a relief.
This is a truly excellent article and shines a light on a real problem and how it affects people in a real way. 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 (though the ire was mostly directed at marketing efforts by corporations).

A story of a smaller, not that harmful, example of this laziness and stupidity: I was talking to a friend just a couple of weeks ago who’d left software engineering to become a paramedic around 2012 after experiencing misogyny in the workplace. A recruiter reached out on LinkedIn a few weeks ago about applying to a software engineering role. Her reaction was understandably irritated that the basic skill of reading her work history seemed missing before reaching out.

I do think that, particularly in the USA, the refusal of the left in power to critically engage with this topic in a thoughtful way has left the space open to Trump and people like him to turn it into a toxic rallying cry for supporters. I see something similar in the UK where Labour ministers are slammed by left leaning media for taking positions to address the public’s concerns in a way that’s more thoughtful that how the Tories were handling it, as the far right in the country has toxified the issue for them.
Could be problematic since Kagi keeps paying Yandex/Russia and there's sanctions you know...

Unfortunately I think the problem is much deeper than something that can be fixed with a few memos. I was just Googling for examples and found this "inclusive language guide" from University of Washington [1]:

> sanity check (why it is problematic): The phrase sanity check is ableist, and unnecessarily references mental health in code bases. It denotes that people with mental illnesses are inferior, wrong, or incorrect. Using an appropriate replacement will also clarify what is intended.

There are of course endless examples. Such sentiments are so absurd on their face, and yet they abound. The first thing "actual leadership" must do is speak the truth and acknowledge that there is a problem.

No, the problem would be moot if the cancellation process was as easy as the sign up process. And I think the US finally got that law
A folder with a list of files is a tool to store versions of text. Git is somewhat more useful.
Prices in the West are maximized with the goal of reaching the peak point on the supply vs demand curve. Prices in the East, and China in particular, are minimized [presumably?] with the goal of maximizing longterm marketshare. One of the easiest examples of this is water [1] because it's a relatively low-labor, low-processing industry. Yet a bottle of water in the West tends to cost about 700% more than a bottle of water in Asia. As a result of this I can buy a bottle of water in the middle of the desert in the Mideast for a tiny fraction of what I'd pay in Michigan which, alone, has ~20% of the entire world's fresh water supply.

This is also why GDP is extremely misleading. PPP is supposed to account for these differences but often is often wrong by a rather wide margin for many critical industries.

Nobody is saying it's not happening but the notion that it's systemic -- as the opposite is -- is categorically a lie and, again, as you've been told a few times in this thread, DEI's goal is to prevent even this scenario from happening as its intended goal is to foster merit-only hiring.
I don't understand the value proposition for all this "event management" complexity over a simple shared text thread.
It is implemented. But it requires quite a bit of boilerplate if you want to compose arbitrary closures at runtime (as you would in most FP languages), because that involves non-trivial overhead and Rust surfaces it in the code (see "dyn Fn trait objects" for how that works in detail).
another question I had was what are your thoughts on spinning off a politics.news.ycombinator.com or some other official link from here, and letting the people that want to do politics have a space separate from the main site?

Not only after WWII, but before. The Nazis made many people flee to the US, e.g. Einstein fled to the US in 1933. For Germany in particular there was a brain drain (and then mass killing of Jews) that devastated German intelligentsia and we never recovered from, look at Nobel Prize laureates before and after the Nazis, artists before and after the Nazis, and on and on goes the list.
While I agree, that isn't much the case for those using static analysis, and hardened runtimes, which provide much of the same safety improvements, granted without lifetimes tracking.

Use more xcode, Clion, Visual Studio, C++ Builder, and less vi and Emacs for C and C++.

Not everyone has the RIIR luxury for what we do.

Define safe. A fully loaded 747 could crash in the US every day and you’d still have a 99.98% chance of being fine when you fly.

Funny, thank you for sharing. I wonder what the relationship with girl's age is.

I would imagine there are huge differences between let's say 20,25,30 and 35+.

Did you happen to group by age bucket ?!
I agree. It's not ideal but Rust is a genuine improvement across the board on C and C++. It has the inertia and will slowly infiltrate and replace those 2. It also has the rare capacity to add some new areas without detracting from the mainstay: It's actually good as an embedded language for the web and as a DSL. C/C++ definitely didn't have that.
It seems read-only access has been given to audit expenses. So there is no modification. In fact it's the read-only access that will allow to become familiar with the system and make informed decisions.
Nobody really remembers, hence, the same mistakes will be made.
Depends on which C++ version you're talking about.
> What of those who do not want to be included as a token or talisman, but would rather participate based upon their qualifications and merits?

There were plenty of companies like Coinbase that ignored DEI initiatives and requested that employees leave "politics at the door" - and we all knew what kind of politics they meant. You could have voted with your feet.

I'm fully onboard with employees asking employees to be respectful to their colleagues regardless of gender, race, creed or color, that's just good for business.
> The problem with this is that if companies are just profit maximizers then one of the things it should do is to realign the government

What do you think is happening right now?
A big company I worked at actually deprecated the last of its Rust code last year. Maintaining Rust was much more expensive than predicted, and hiring and/or mentoring Rust Engineers proved even more expensive.

A simpler performant language like Zig, or a boring language + a different architecture would have been the better choice.
From my experience on C++ vs Rust on test algorithm. For a naive algorithm implementation rust is usually slightly faster than C++. But when you try to optimise stuff, it's the opposite. It's really hard to optimise Rust code, you need to put lots of unsafe and unsafe is not user-friendly. Rust also force you on some design that are not always good for performance.
Canada ("51st state", by coincidence my favorite song), Mexico, Greenland, Gaza. There is no red line for megalomania.
This is how I think about unlimited data plans haha. I think a rate limit is easier to stomach (e.g., X requests per hour where they bank up to one hour so you can burst up to 2X for especially crazy hours or something).
But in other countries they dont need to pay so much for social system, insurance or healthcare, kindergarden and so on..
You can not always compare everything with money, when there is a lot around it.
I don’t think DEI itself provides the grounds. It’s simply a case of DEI either being implemented in a lazy or stupid way to tick boxes OR it being used as cover by a small number of activists to engage in discrimination of their own. If DEI didn’t exist, the above things would still happen, just for a different reason and possibly different group of activists.
Just recently i was actually thinking about this pricing approach for netflix, apple arcade or whatever else. Basically i use it so rarely that i could just subscribe when i want to watch anything, and unsubscribe immediately. This will enable subscription till end of billing period (one month). Then when i want o watch anything again then i will repeat again. And now kagi has implemented exactly this but automated from their own side. Im subscribing just to vote with my wallet.

Hopes that netflix or any other provider will implement this are small though. Because it's free money when someone pays for service and does not use it.
It doesn't, mathematically. It might be good enough for some cases, but it is not good enough for cases that actually require uniformity.
I'm curious if what is happening in the US and what has happened in Britain with Brexit actually ends up slowing some of these marches towards illiberalism in other places. Like when people are upset at the direction of a country or current policies, they may take a "throw the bums out" attitude even if the alternative is far worse. But perhaps they're looking at the complete shit show in the US and how unproductive Brexit was and are thinking "OK, maybe not like that..."

I mean, it sounds like Canada is more united than it's been in a long time in its shared opposition to Trump.

See, this is what I'm talking about. If you're trying to protect activists from threats, protect them from threats. Making a political statement about commercial surveillance isn't doing that. A lot of these guides are LARPs.

How about this: if you feel strongly about commercial ad surveillance vs. susceptibility to drive-by RCE exploits loaded off web pages, look to see if the "infosec for activist" guides you're reading at least offer their readership the choice of risks. Does this one? (Rhetorical, obvs.)

They can be very different, but still both push our governing structures and our thinking in directions that are not good for us individually or collectively.

To risk an analogy, if you're drowning and need assistance, you need some sort of flotation device, or a rope to get out of the water. If one person throws a heavy stone block at you, they're not helping. If a different person tosses you a metal chair, they're also not helping, even if they think they are. The objects are different, and the intent may even be different. But neither helps, and you are still drowning.
This has been done already.
The biggest issue for me, is that Rust isn't used where I care about, mainstream language runtimes, compiler toolchains, and GPU ecosystem standards.

No one from them would accept a patch in Rust instead of C or C++.

Yes I know about Deno, but even them haven't rewriten V8, and wgpu or Rust CUDA aren't the same as what Khronos, NVidia, AMD, Microsoft put out in C++.
That isn’t going to be anything even close to accurate before the week is over and that is kind of the entire point here.
The problem is that there are still huge amounts of services with awful dark patterns out there. There’s an instagram gym clothing brand called Fabletics which is £55/month for their vip tier. They auto subscribe you with a purchase (and when I say buried in the fine print, I really do mean _buried_ in the fine print). To cancel, you have to do it between the 1st and the 4th of the month, and it’s a multi page form where every page is a confirmation that is designed to look like you have unsubscribed . When services are still doing this there needs to be some rules.

Not at all. Not in the least.

The worst part about Git is the bad defaults. Seconded only by mismanaged storage. Or maybe being designed for the use-case most of its users will never have. Or maybe horrible authentication mechanism. Or maybe the lack of bug-tracker or any sensible feedback from its developers.

None of this can be helped by the GUI. In fact, beside Magit, any sort of front-end to Git I've seen is hands down awful and teaches to do the wrong thing, and is usually very difficult to use efficiently, and mystifies how things actually work. But, even with Magit, I'd still advise to get familiar with CLI and configuration files prior to using it: it would make it easier to understand what operations is it trying to improve.
