There was a post on BlueSky about this the other day. Someone linked a picture of the intersection: https://bsky.app/profile/pickard.cc/post/3lhtkghk6q224

It is worth noting that this picture is a reply to a screenshot of someone saying the following:

> I've lived in 8 different states in my life and most roads I've seen do everything they can to prevent human error (or at least they do once the human has shown them what they did wrong). The FSD should not have been fooled this easily, but the environment was the worst it could have been, also.

I point this out because I think probably the biggest takeaway here is how often people will bend over backwards to reach the conclusion that they want, rather than update their model to the new data (akin to Bayesian Updating for you math nerds). While this example is egregious, I think we all should take a hard look at ourselves and question where we do this too. There's not one among us that isn't resistant to change our beliefs, yet it's probably one of the most important things we can do if we want to improve things. If we have any hope of being able to not be easily fooled by hype, if we are to be able to differentiate real innovation from cons, if we are able to avoid joining Cargo Cults, then this seems to be a necessity. It's easy to poke fun at this dude, but are we all certain that we're so different? I would like to think so, but I fear making such a claim is repeating the same mistake I/we are calling out.
>In 2018, an investigation by the Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs found rampant, pervasive and severe sexual harassment at AccuWeather

Depends upon the lesson, when it comes to harassment, the GOP learned and found ways to get the public to accept this.

Seems the only reason it failed was it seems Myers was found to be a sexual predator. These days, that seems to be a requirement to be the head of an agency.
> [1]: Never even touched Overwatch or PUBG

I don't want push you into nausea (know that feeling for myself), but if you're interested in trying it, I found that Overwatch was one of the few modern FPSes that didn't cause any motion sickness for me at all (with default settings). No idea why.

I am very sad I will never be able to complete The Witness. It's bearable - not debilitating nausea - but very unpleasant.
Show me the Molex logo molded on that connector end and I'll believe you.

Thanks so much.

It's a database full of users that can be used for connecting with subject matter experts if you want to ask questions or ask for feedback/improvement on an application, or for research on anything

this can save you a ton of time on finding experts to ask questions to (like you said, it is used for reaching out directly)

And I am still experimenting for the best scraping algorithm to get the best experts, as I check various factors to filter out the best users in each subreddit

Most airports in Canada work similarly when flying to the US. It's actually an advantage because you go through US customs on departure and can fly into any US airport, even smaller non-international ones that don't have customs.
Converts do tend to romanticize their new side over the old one. But I think Larry's view has specific alignment with history: at the time, the most outspoken on the websites he visited were strongly Atheistic or Anti-Religious. That sentiment prevailed in websites like Reddit which, for example, had /r/atheism and its "euphoria".

StarSlateCodex describes this phenomena in detail, as well as what happened to the more drama-prone Atheists who Larry probably tussled with:

Acutely altered mental status (without specific findings suggestive of a stroke) is, first and foremost, assumed to be a metabolic issue. I've been a practicing doctor for twenty years and it wasn't a new thought at the time. I don't know why nobody suggested it to you. It's been basic understanding for, well, ages.
Keeping your dependencies up-to-date (at least updating known vulnerabilities) is very different than anti-virus software and the other check-list-oriented "security" industry.

The first is just blatantly irresponsible and dumb "advice", while I do agree that most of the "you need to tick this box in order to get the contract" kind of "security" software is just malware, and often worse than what they supposedly cure.
HN is not exclusively for tech discussion and the more technology and politics merge as we head into this techno-fascist era, post like this will likely happen more often.
Python2-3 is a worst case example where the benefits were small or negative compared to cost.

There are also plenty of very successful languages used for large complex problems and have broken compatibility in various ways over the years.

You are right nobody wants to pay to rewrite it but if the tooling takes care of it for you nobody cares about it.

Python 2-3 had tooling that, for larger customers and projects, often could not do even 50% of the conversion, and when it came out the other side, nobody felt it was really better.
Having a standard DIN/double DIN slot for a head unit also makes upgrades/changes easier. With all the new cars having such bespoke and integrated systems, it makes stuff like changing out the head unit much harder.

Musk wasn't on the ballot.
I wrote three paragraphs with 8 links showing multiple lies, manipulation, differences between how Musk presents himself and what he says he supports (Randian superman), vs. what actually happened (taxpayer funding) and they post a one-line dismissive "who cares, he's rich, the ends justify the means".

That's not a good comment, especially in the light of dang's callout at the top of this thread: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=42992992 "don't post low-information / high-indignation comments that could just as easily appear in any related thread. Such generic comments make discussion less interesting and more activating.".

I don't think either major party denies the economy is bad or that the public is suffering economic hardship. One just repeats without evidence that only they can fix it, and the other probably can fix it but chooses to do nothing.

Thank you, I have spent quite some time reading the Tibetan Book of Living and Dying, as well as the (English translation) of the Tibetan Book of the Dead. Before I found those sources, I had found the rewritten version found in the Psychedelic Experience by Timothy Leary and Richard Alpert in my youth when I was interested in LSD. There are quite a few parallels between what I've heard from those close to me that were dying, psychedelic experiences of my own and friends, as well as a near death experience I had myself. I have found the amount of memory that can be recalled from the unconscious to be amazing. The "life flashing before my eyes" was something I fully experienced, and I somehow recalled even minor events over 16 years of my life (I was 16 when I had my near death experience).

Whether or not someone believes this to be real or a hallucination, it is still a human experience, and should at least be treated with respect. I think it's perfectly fine to not believe that it is something higher than brain function, but in Buddhism there is the concept of non-duality.

Yes, it's important to have real context here and recognize when it's a real issue. I'd love to see more people no matter the leaning (left, right) to actually practice this more.
>Post the data and let me decide for myself

Lets be honest here: you're not going to do that, because, as others have pointed out, the data is already posted...and you obviously have decided against the NOAA, without even looking at the data (because you didn't even know it was available).

But let's be charitable here: maybe you will "do your own research" aka decide for yourself. How would you go about that? Its a giant dataset, or more accurately, a giant set of datasets--probably way too much for one dude to handle...the NOAA is certainly more than one person big!

In fact, I'm sure you dont even have a relevant degree--after all, if you were a meteorologist, you would know what the NOAA is and does and certainly the fact that they post their data.

So: you wont look at the data. You arent even qualified to consider the data!

But lets be charitable again and assume you were trained in a field relevant to meteorological data. What would you compare the data to? How would you check it? You are taming the canonical source of data and want to "check it" against...what exactly?

See, this is the thing that is galling about the entire DOGE project and MAGA in general:

It is a bunch of people who are tearing things down because they dont like them. Not because MAGA can provide proof and "look into it." Nay, its just a bunch of underqualified people who are tired of made to feel dumb, because Western culture has moved beyond their small worldviews.

My 2021 BMW has iDrive and physical buttons and dials. It’s a fantastic system.

A lot of iDrive systems can be replaced, though I do worry where the cheap ebay components come from.

Later iDrive was so much better than earlier, probably the best system I have used in a car, but now they have gone with huge touch screens. yes it looks impressive and no I don't want it.
It's super cool to build things. I love talking to people at the makerspace. Lot's of people working on interesting projects. I can't imagine not having home ec either. I don't remember the teachers name, but I've made a quesadilla the same way since 5th grade.

Some tech skills are helpful too. I typically CAD projects so I know what size lumber and cuts need to be made.
The long-term plan is for Zig to expose some form of language server (not LSP) from the compiler itself, so it can use all the information it gets from doing the compilation. Incremental compilation is a key part of this plan, because it means we can get new up-to-date information in milliseconds rather than seconds or minutes when a file changes.

“so many people” aren’t, of course. Never were. There’s no suggestion Google removed them because of complaints. The vast, vast majority of people couldn’t care less. The only people who ever cared were a tiny minority of reactionaries with an excess of free time on their hands to even think about the topic, let alone get upset about it.

So you haven't done bug fixes on something poorly architected initially because the project was started by anyone with a pulse instead of someone experienced?

Same with electrical. Yeah, you can learn the basics but only experience is going to get you to do it right. And two months ain't enough experience to do all the new construction electrical for someone else's house. Doing it for yourself is fine because only you have to deal with what you didn't do completely right when you didn't know any better.
That's odd. I live in the Pacific Northwest and I can count on one hand the number of times I've had to manually turn on defogging. Often my Model 3 will say, "auto defogging". Maybe your humidity sensor is faulty?

I agree that physical controls for these things would be ideal, but nowadays the only one that annoys me is lack of the wiper controls. I think even that issue would go away if Tesla used rain sensors instead of cameras to trigger the wipers.

If you poison them then they die in the walls or somewhere you can't get to them and stink. Shooting is the sporting method (a very low powered .177 air pistol works well indoors if you take careful shots), but trapping also works. You can make a trap guaranteed to kill a rodent with a sheetrock bucket, a butter knife, and a delicious morsel. Walking the plank is a much more effective method of execution than the spring loaded guillotine, no partial results.

100M IT Project Failure: Sinkhole of Bureaucracy (2014)
Ask HN: What do you run instead of Datadog?
Datadog has turned into an ever loving piece of shit. I am sick of their sales team grabbing us by the ankles and "Accidentally" charging for services we don't use. Now, this morning they changed something with their AWS integration that is causing 10X the API calls against our accounts (and thus, 10X guardduty costs on our end analyzing those API requests).

I have had enough of their bullshit and want to find a new vendor. What is everyone using for cloud scale logging and monitoring these days that isn't one of Splunk (cost prohibitive), Sumo-Logic (Also assholes), or Datadog?

It would be nice to just self host a service that stored logs in S3 using iceberg format. However, I don't think such a tool exists.
Well there is a distinction between "Gulf of the United States of America" and "Gulf of America".

Calling it "Gulf of America" does not equate it to "Gulf of the United States of America" which is what Trump probably wants, but he is too stupid to realize the difference. He just deprived the Gulf of its association with Mexico without truly associating with the US.

Why doesn't he go all the way and call for New Mexico to be renamed to New America though? I wouldn't put it past him.

Do some white people think these petty attitudes will restore the former industrial glory of the US?

Is he miffed at the Gulf referring to a country of mostly Latinos/Hispanics rather than White people?

Is this guy just racist or petty/both? The citizens of the US should be ashamed of themselves for voting him in as President, though truth be said their political system doesn't give them much of choice.

In any case what choice is there between an GOP apple and Democrat pear if they are both rotten?

He is just grumpy at Gradle, he does it in every possible thread that even mentions Gradle's name.

Which is especially sad because he fails to even understand what Gradle does (see his comparison with Ant which is just completely inaccurate.

I liked this quote:

> I worked on the basic concept on my own. I found that if I started to listen to others, the concept tended to become diluted and unfocused. However, once the basic concept was decided, it was helpful to have open discussions with the team. There were many more ideas that were not used in the game, but I still got something out of all the different ideas that were brought up even if I didn't use them as they were presented.
