I've solved n-queens once before using exceptions to handle control flow. I coded a recursive solution for an assignment, but I wrote it wrong and it ended up printing all of the possible solutions instead of just one.

Because I didn't have much time before the final submission, I just put the initial call in a try catch block and threw an exception to indicate successful completion.
What sort of citation would you be looking for here? It's generally accepted that it's not a priority for them, the discrepencies in performance and features between UIKit vs AppKit have always existed and are even more pronounced in SwiftUI. Due to how it's used they can't apply the same business model to the mac as they can iOS and therefore can't extract as much value from it, this is reflected in revenue.
You seclude the troops and do it at night under clouds with EMCON. All of these challenges are overcomeable.

Yes it picks the best available source then it also looks for subtitle and if those fail it has a couple fallbacks too
It likely writes request logs to disk as part of the request!
Should have moved to the EU. I lived in Russia and the US and compared to EU countries they both have really huge issues. Both countries could be great places to live but their militarism and "patriotism" makes that impossible. The amount of money their governments suck from society and put into military is crazy. And both countries are not a democracy anymore but an oligarchy, Russia a lot more obviously than the US.

It's not always the biggest and strongest. Sometimes it's the many.

Rules matter as long as they are enforced. It's only when enforcement is asymmetrical that problems begin.
Nah, at this point I suspect the Martians actually felt threatened by the progress SpaceX made, and switched Musk for a lookalike, in order to stop the Mars mission and kick us around a bit for good measure, so humanity is looking inwards worried about geopolitical stability, instead of continuing to advance.

I mean, given how he went 180 on everything almost instantly, that's one of the most plausible explanations.
Maybe a toaster made up of modular parts fitting together like Lego? They'd only fit one way so as to avoid assembly errors. Modular construction means that failing parts could be easily replaced.
What complicates things is that large companies have incentive and resources to try to dissuade users from using completely free and open source browsers.

This makes it harder to trust messages about not trusting ie. Firefox.

Why do you hate your lungs?
I'm sorry to say, but I find your comment an example of the hysteria I mentioned.

Firstly, that is not fascism and I do wish people would stop misusing that word. The Doctrine of Fascism[1] is an interesting and elucidative read. I'm sure that tyrannical, authoritarian or any of the other more appropriate (yet still inaccurate, in my view) words would be a much better choice. The thesaurus lists arbitrary, which might fit Trump much better than any of them, but fascist, no. That would be a risible choice. Fascists don't cut the size of government for start, and they certainly don't fight for the right to do so in court. What a thought!

> the opening of mass detention centres outside the US

Are you referring to the Guatanamo Bay detention camp? That was opened in 2002 and has run continuously till now. Two Republican presidents, two Democrat. I was against it in 2002 and I'm glad people are finally noticing, but its use as a processing centre for migrants goes back even further to the early 90s (and less officially, the 1970s)[2].

> executive orders to place himself above the courts

That is not what the executive orders do, nor is that how the system works, and even if you think the executive's ignoring of court orders would be a crisis, Andrew Jackson ignored them[3], almost 200 years ago, America didn't descend into fascism (and not because it hadn't been conceived yet).

From[4]:

> The Trump administration is still entrenched in legal fights in the lower courts and, so far, has not defied any orders from the U.S. Supreme Court, the nation's highest court, she noted.

So, as I noted, hysteria.

You seem to be assuming that the invasion would happen by surprise. That's effectively impossible due to the scale of the operation. Especially because China is full of foreigners and the logistical effort would be impossible to hide.

If China decides to invade, everyone would likely know it weeks in advance. They just could not be sure if it's an actual invasion or a massive military exercise that simulates an invasion. And in either case, the US would have plenty of time to decide whether to commit additional carrier strike groups to the region before anything happens.
Don't want to discuss your statement about "bankrolling" here, I'm not into the topic enough.

However, since this post is about US GDP I'm now curious, what do you think where this money is going and contributing to GDP?
Some docs are better than none, but writing less is not easy.
Either way, if this continues, Americans will not be welcomed there. So point about visit still stands.
> Notably, while Claude Code charged $4.69 for three simple changes, this per-change pricing can add up quickly. Potentially making it more expensive than Cursor’s $20/month subscription, which offers unlimited modifications.

It's a pitty that the author did not test Cursor with Claude 3.7 Sonnet. That way he would have separated the improvements due to the model used from the improvements due to the better DX, system prompts, RAG, Agentic workflows, etc.
Show HN: I built a local audio capture, transcription, AI meeting notes system
I wrote Panotti so that businesses and individuals can process their audio, online meetings, completely on their own machines - without paying any sort of subscription or leaking any data to a 3rd party.

The backend server is Open Source, which allows anybody to contribute their own plugins to create a workflow that works for their needs, without a gatekeeper or ongoing fees.

Works with all online meeting software - Zoom, MS Teams, Google Meet, Slack, Skype.

If someone broke SHA-256, a lot of modern crypto is broken. I would worry about all of your sensitive accounts like your bank, government before worrying about cryptocurrency.
There's also been a population growth, albeit small, but it's happening. Thanks to migration and to the economies actually being HEALTHY people start to have more babies. The IT and innovation that comes from there as well. It's not much but it's extremely effective.

I think this is very high for the average person.

But is Dart better than Typescript? I prefer Typescript for multiple reasons but one of them is that you don't have to use classes to use the advanced typing system. Without a typing system I like Ruby the most, but sometimes we just need a typing system.
I believe Biden said that the US plan, in the case of a Chinese invasion of Taiwan, would be to destroy the chip fabs.
If russia had planned an invasion and brought more weapons instead of dress uniforms and riot shields they may well have been successful.

The initial air assault did meet its objectives regardless of failures later and elsewhere. This success is likely instructive for a potential Taiwan invasion. They need to take it more seriously and build a network of remote control turrets.

> Putin has not been able to conquer the whole of Ukraine after 3 years, but somehow, suddenly, he will be able to conquer all of the Baltic states without breaking a sweat?

Putin will find it much easier to wage war in Europe if Trump pulls out and takes the USA into isolationism (so abandoning the western democracies).

And he will find it much easier to do this if he starts before Europe has a chance to re-arm.

That is the logic you fail to see.
We need to get behind Mozilla and Firefox for the simple reason it is the last bastion on the path to omni-chrome

Those who care very deeply about very tight privacy have enough niche options.

But I want there to be browser that has enough privacy to be sustainable so there’s a reliable option for me to recommend to family members etc which is holds enough market share for websites to test against.

If Firefox’s market share dips any lower website makers won’t support it - testing only against the homogeneity of chrome/edge/safari and then it will become a death spiral and humanity will have taken a step backwards.

It’s a case of use it lose it.
That's the thing though: it's not so easy to just feed a continent's worth of people. As a ruler, if you keep running around like the elephant in a china shop, breaking critical infrastructure left and right in the name of "efficiency", you may discover that, come next season, there just isn't any bread to give, and there's fuck all you can do at that point.
That's part of it. I had a look in central London and I could sort of charge but the costs are very different too - something like £20k for a car whereas I got a used ebike for £180 and it's much quicker to get around on and you don't have the parking issues.
I believe emojis are pretty popular this days, yet searching for one on macOS has been broken for years

1. Press Fn key twice to open Emoji picker

2. Type to search

3. Hover an emoji

4. Press Esc to empty search for box and start a new search

5. Type

You can't type. Focus is lost somewhere, impossible to search again for an emoji without closing the panel and open it again. My coworkers have all installed a third-party emoji picker to work around this issue, which is absurd from Apple's standpoint.

How can Apple engineers not be aware of such issues? Did they ever inserted an emoji from macOS?
These points are what I like about wiki format for tech projects.
It's like tobacco and junk food companies blaming doctors for spreading misinformation about the healthy effects of smoking and fat and sugar consumption. That explains everything.
How much of it was because you didn't go through TCP/IP with sqlite?
Wow, quite black and white views here.

Despite all the justified doubts and concerns, it's also worth noting that Mozilla runs one of the few independent browser engines left, with limited ways to actually fund it.

When they're not here anymore, there aren't many parties left to argue about web standards in favor of a free web.

So I'd keep watching them as always, without painting them as evil just because of some misstep...
Whoops, looks like we managed to ddos this website.
You're talking about a civil war, and given that dems are less likely to jump to violence as a solution, things are a long way off from dems being willing to engage like that.

Happy Scribe | Engineers, UX Designer | Onsite & Hybrid (Barcelona, Spain) | Full-time

Hi there, Happy Scribe founder here. At Happy Scribe we think audio & video should be universally accessible. Today’s state of the art is agencies doing everything manually. We want to scale high-quality subtitles & dubbing with a multi-player editing experience that combines sota ai with a global marketplace of proofreaders. Being product-led we have the datasets needed to get there. It’s the Tesla autopilot play in the language service industry. If we succeed we’ll live in a world where everyone can consume any content in their native language without degrading the experience.

A team of 5 engineers and 0$ vc money built the product, used by +350k/mo people with high 7-digit revenue. We inhabit a beautiful 4-story designer office in the Gràcia neighbourhood.

Here is our careers page https://www.happyscribe.com/careers. We sponsor visas.

We hire only builders and kind people :)

Please apply directly to our website,
Cheers!

Invading Taiwan will never be an economically rational action. If it happens, it will be because of internal politics, personal/national myth-making etc.

Taiwan is ridiculously favourable terrain for the defenders; if they fight back, there can't be quick victory, and the US will be able to play merry hell with China's naval logistics from day 1 (obviously with escalating levels of firepower available over time as more resources move in-theatre).

China could secure a more reliable victory by expending most of it's ballistic missile inventory to incapacitate the US bases in Guam and Okinawa, but that would inexorably trigger WWIII.

The World needs more Snow Leopards.
Same here, despite spending a decade of my life playing both acoustic and electric guitars.
This is even more confusing. I understand that the browser needs to know my primary language and will send that as part of the HTTP requests (e.g. as part of the Accept-Language header) in order to operate ("To provide you with the Firefox browser"). I don't know why Mozilla needs a license for this.

They are not clear where/how the data is being used. For example, why are "Unique identifiers" and "Interaction data" part of "To provide you with the Firefox browser"?

From "Interaction data": "This is data about how you engage with our services, such as how many tabs you have open or what you’ve clicked on." -- Why is it necessary to track how many tabs I have open in order to provide the browser to me? -- That isn't something they need to send via HTTP to make websites function. If it is for telemetry and improving the browser, that should be a separate section.
Look I understand the context here but if you're going to go around saying "a great platform for computing" it's not really telling me much about the project.
any website that asks me to prove im not a robot can f off, i dont need to see it that badly - unless i do, but hopefully thats rare.
This is a bit more strange. If it's an insufficient storage problem I'm wondering what is getting stored per-request.
There is certainly an aspect of programming that's very "spatial", connected to the aesthetic perceptions of neatness and beauty. I like your metaphors, the "bubbly" texture (that'll impact things like branch prediction, or imply a heavy use of predicates in very parallel SIMD code, driving down efficient hardware usage)
Go back to Project Builder :)
I have run into these same issues, it's particularly frustrating once you see a Reddit thread from a couple years ago outlining the exact issue. For a large consumer-focused company like Apple this can only be explained by ignorance.

From a developer perspective many of these inconsistencies are rooting from inconsistent access patterns - operating system (ABI?), applications (ICP?), remote (TCP, HTTP, LDAP, FTP, ...?). All of these are "execution" or "information" but have to be programmed against differently.

Is that the piece of orange plastic in front of the handlebar base, that they are calling a "windscreen"?
I got and old rusty one and put some paint on it so it's not very nickable. I leave it out at night but remove the battery.

I use normal D locks but are tempted to get an angle grinder resistant one although they are expensive - £150+.
I am confused. Isn't that how democracy works?
I don't know! It's a reckless thing to do, but satisfying. I tend to stick to killing the same relatively small set of processes, really, and have never noticed any ill effects in about a year. If I was less lazy, I'd research them all - but then I'd want to also research how to stop them running in the first place - and in some cases, like Edge, that threatens to be such a mission that I don't want to embark on it. (I have a script that's supposed to uninstall Edge, but I thought I should read and understand it before I run it, and that was months ago and I never did ... so I still have Edge.)
Aside from security fixes and improvements I rarely use anything in OS X that wasn't there many versions ago. I wish they'd try a "long term support" model instead of annually releasing bug ridden OS versions that don't provide me any benefit. The main benefit seems to be to Apple, planned obsolescence etc
> and then turns on Apple intelligence reporting (15 min intervals) by default.

That feature is so misunderstood, it feels like no one read the help text or tried it and is just going off the misplaced outrage of everyone else.

That setting is not about sending information to Apple, it is a personal private report for yourself.

There are enough legitimate reasons to criticise Apple, we don’t need to make up a problem which isn’t there and distract from the ones that exist.
I am the same. I have used V5, V7 an VBall Pilots. I even checked their webpage to check if the V2s were some kind of premium line I didn't know, but found nothing.

What it's even more puzzling is the children comment that totally remembers them.
Politically maybe, but as far as raw force goes, Russians have been reduced to deploying donkeys in battlefield logistics. That is a big capability gap, and won't be easily bridged.

The next POTUS may not be as prostrate to Russia as Trump is, even if a Republican.
I think the point is more that none of it is really "natural". But also yes? We are animals.
Author here, crashing is another issue I have with notes, but it's more sporadic.

> Apple's kit is still lightyears better than an equivalent Windows 11/Android setup

That's sadly true, but I think as users/power users we shouldn't settle for the "best of the worst", when it's clear that the direction of Apple software quality took a dramatic shift.
