You as a patient are going to get an AI treatment plan. Come to peace with it.

You may have some mild input as to whether it's laundered through a doctor, packaged software, a SaaS, or LLM generated clinical guidelines... but you're not escaping an AI guiding the show. Sorry.

First thoughts, I have to say I like it. I'll probably find something wrong with it, but I've always found it an interesting layout, I might stick to it for the time being.
They already allocated funding to deploy the military inside the US in border areas.
That sounds sweet ride.
They don’t hate constantly, only when thinking about politics.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two_Minutes_Hate

> The political purpose of the Two Minutes Hate is to allow the citizens of Oceania to vent their existential anguish and personal hatred toward politically expedient enemies: Goldstein and the enemy super-state of the moment. In re-directing the members' subconscious feelings away from the Party's governance of Oceania and toward non-existent external enemies, the Party minimises thoughtcrime and the consequent subversive behaviours of thoughtcriminals.

The only thing it gets wrong is the variety of Goldsteins.
Honestly, this is a good use case and I think I still am not a fan. It's an extra step-away from a drum machine so maybe I can stomach it eventually but as a guitarist I love writing riffs and songs but just don't have the time and patience to put together decent sounding drum tracks against it. Garageband/Logic and others have added an AI drummer but still doesn't feel great.

I probably would be happy paying a service I could drop a riff into and get decent drum track that goes with it. Even more would be while recording or playing it modifies and adapts, it can be recorded and clipped. Something that fits a clean workflow. If anyone makes this please don't make it such a pain as most VSTs and plugin systems where there are like 4 different installers and licensing software layers.
Your data is wrong

Estonia has had conscription for our whole independence from russia, and we don't intend to go back to russia.
Lithuania also has conscription and Latvia started it again last year.

Estonia also has the Defence League, a voluntary organisation which offers trainings and will support our defence forces.

Finland and Poland also have conscription.
The Netherlands also has elections.

There is a long tradition which views Roosevelt's policies as both ineffective and unjustifiable. In 1933, he confiscated privately-held gold by executive order in 1933. That same year, he instituted a policy paying farmers to slaughter their livestock and leave their fields fallow. The effects of this policy are described (in somewhat flowery language) in John Steinbeck's 1939 novel The Grapes of Wrath. He then attempted to pack the courts in 1937.

It's notable that none of these policies were particularly effective. Of the major industrial economies of the period, only France lagged behind America in terms of economic recovery.
Yeah, I wasn't really trying to push back too hard, just taking it as a chance to banter about a movie I really like :-)

Some of it's acting styles, too. You can see it in lots of the characters, a bit of what reads as over-acting today. More stage influence. Having watched a lot of older movies, I get the sense both that film acting styles developed (not necessarily improved, but, maybe) over time, and that for a long while more styles were within the range of "normal" that an audience might not be surprised or put-off by, while today the range of normal styles is much narrower and you rarely see other approaches outside of really niche films or some foreign film markets (Indian cinema!)

Pillars is great, highly recommended. It's extremely different from the film, too—where the film presents a practically mythic figure (and his fall) and is bent entirely toward that purpose, the book is (perhaps contrary to what one might expect) relatively humble, even self-deprecating, and grounded. And Lawrence's writing is outstanding, clear and full of beautiful sentences, phrases, and passages—his fancy education really paid off in that department.

He also penned a translation of the Odyssey (but not the Iliad) which happens to be a personal favorite. I stumbled on and read it well before I realized it was him, since he published that one under the pen name "TE Shaw", which I didn't recognize. Not a tightly-faithful translation, not a verse translation either, but reads very modern in the telling, without feeling anachronistic or losing the sense that you're reading an ancient epic, if that makes sense, and also not far enough away from the original text to be a retelling rather than a translation.

Haha, yeah, it's not like the president hasn't put in 3 of the SCOTUS judges who give him a 6/9 majority. Or replaced the chief joint of staff and each respective head of every military branch and each respective judge of each military branch. Or the head of the FBI or the director of the FBI. Or the secretary of defense. It's not like he once ordered protesters to be shot for a photo op and had to be stopped by people in those very positions saying "no". That would be crazy.

It's not like he's stopping aid to Ukraine while ruminating on dropping sanctions on our second largest enemy state and repeating word-for-word Kremlin talking points after having a prior relationship with their criminal enterprises for his real estate and an intelligence community espouse the use of foreign power to influence his election outcomes. That would be nuts.

It's not like he attempted to overthrow the government when he lost an election 4 years ago, then pardoned the violent criminals who were incarcerated for that act. Or outright saying he will ignore judicial rulings from unfavored judges while making executive orders that change explicitly language in the constitution, with an EO making it illegal for his executive branch employees to oppose his interpretation of law and installing Aparachniks in each agency to report those in non-compliance. That's a loony idea.

It's not like he's destroying all trade partnerships with allies and internal infrastructure/manufacturing investments simultaneously. That would be silly.

Twitter had few months runway until it'd run out of money and go bankrupt.

Bloomberg analysis says (despite advertisers and communities leave etc) platform earnings seem to be staying at $1.2 billion a year.

Reports from Feb 2025 say that X doubled its adjusted EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization) from $682 million in 2021 (the last full year before the takeover) – so they are on right track increasing profitability and big part of it likely due to workforce cut from 7500 to 1500 (they did more moves than that, all of them have some impact).

It seems argument around layoffs and working from the office leading to doomsday scenario (it'll stop working, it's gone etc. sentiments at the time) have been refuted with time.
The ethical "who's who" is irrelevant for US, in both cases they have "big beautiful ocean" inbetween.
I wasn’t around for WWII, but now don’t think you have this quite right. The US fought against Germany and its allies (and Japan, which had directly attacked the US and continued to fight after Germany surrendered). The war was never against Russia.

Sure, maybe the US could have invaded Russia afterwards, but that would have been a disaster, kind of like how Germany’s invasion of Russia was a disaster and a bit like how Russia’s recent invasion of Ukraine has been a real mess for Russia.
China and other countries don’t see it that way. They are looking for signals as to what they might be able to get away with, now that the US has decided that it chose the wrong team during the Cold War.

Thats kind of lawyer speak, not much different when insurance company don't wanna cover you because of some tiny font paragraph or different interpretation in the contract.

USA could before this war started (because they publicly on camera warned about invasion days before) tell Putin that in case of invasion they believe they cannot fullfill contract commitment so in this situation the contract would be void and they would have to return few old nukes to Ukraine. This would be enough deterrent and fair to justify.
>Presumably someone had cut it off deliberately

People usually do that to specifically indicate that it has a problem of some sort, so someone else doesn't assume it's working. Although with a toaster, just the act of flipping it around to cut the cord might dislodge whatever toast bits were causing it to smoke and such in the first place.
And everyone in Europe will want our governments and armies to stop buying stuff made in the US, especially weapons and ammo.

>What are those technical and physical controls you speak of?

We're on a "Hacker News", and you want me to explain what parental controls are? Do you have some specific questions that you genuinely want help with? Because this smells like a bad faith question.

Physical controls like... Gosh, I don't know. Choosing what devices your kids have access to, and what time their allowed to use them? Taking devices away when rules are broken? Putting devices in common rooms instead of bedrooms?

>If your kid is taught to be responsible why would you need them?

Ah, I see your edit confirms that this is a bad faith line of questioning.

Ah yes.. "Build the Docker image for the yadayada webiste application, because containerizing a blog is the epitome of efficiency."
OP here. While this logic holds, large companies don’t move fast.

In 2018, I wrote about scaling big while staying small using serverless computing (https://cloud.google.com/blog/products/gcp/scale-big-while-s...). But by 2020, instead of leaner teams, we saw more hiring and even bigger orgs—ironically, even at companies selling serverless services.

Why? Because incentives at large companies favor empire-building (prestige from managing big teams) over efficiency. I expect the same inertia with AI: solo devs will fully embrace AI, serverless, and freemium to race ahead, while big teams will adopt AI at a crawl.

Yes, I've been very honest and open about my experience in my past interview, so they know I've pretty much only worked with Python. And yes, Javascript and Typescript as well. I have already offered to do a Java course before joining the company, so they are definitely willing to look past that.
I agree with your comment but disagree with the framing that these are necessary because parents “fail”.

The safety mechanisms you point to are not a result of parents failing, it’s a result of a common agreement that society as a whole benefits from certain guardrails. Seatbelts were very controversial! But after you realize that a seatbelt is a small inconvenience that can prevent you or your children from being violently ejected from the vehicle and splatting on the pavement in the event of a car crash, we agreed as a society that the public health good outweighed the slight inconvenience of wearing a seatbelt. Nothing to do with the failings of parents. Parents already feel like failures most of the time already as it is.

Well, the EU has a Russian military base at its border, and did not escalate any war because of that?
I think it also depends on how you think of symbols; I see "::" as a single operator, not two symbols. Do () and <> count as individual symbols? I believe you do, given that you have an example upthread.

If those are the case, well, I can construct something, but it's not something I've used directly. Four isn't unheard of if you're going by those rules, but five is a bit extra.

As someone curious about learning more about type systems, would you mind elaborating on 1.? I'm assuming you mean the formal definition of "sound", not just as a synonym for "sensible". Sound typing is often something handwaved away as not being particulary consequential in practice; what benefits have you seen there?

Largely agree with your analysis, but wanted to comment on this point:

> Just in the EU for example we see that energy prices continue to increase per kWh

I think we'll see energy prices in the EU continue to rise until geopolitics cool off a bit. I'd be a bit disappointed if the EU looked at the current trends and decided to become even more dependent on oil and gas given how antagonistic the main producers currently are.
>. For those of us who want to support Ukraine, why can't we choose to spend our tax dollars on that?

This is what I'm proposing. Eliminate aid, that filters back into Americans not being forced to pay for it. Those who want to can use their savings to donate or fly over and fight.
Maybe they mean that it either doesn’t matter in context or it’s easy to catch and correct. Either way it seems reasonable to trust the judgement of the professional reporting on their experience with a new tool.
I agree. I'm all for phasing out cars completely, but I don't think it is realistic even if there would be support for it.

Next best thing is to move cars to the edges of districts in urban areas. Create big parking spaces, covered in solar panels and equip them with chargers. Design them in such a way that everybody can walk in 5-10 minutes to their home from these parking spaces. In the space that we save this way we can have cycling lanes and trees. Of course, every house should still be reachable by car, if only just for mail delivery, for moving, for doing groceries etc. And people with handicaps should be able to get a permit to park near their houses.

I know one such district near me and its lovely. And one big city in the Netherlands is planning to build a new district in this way for 10000 people, it should be amazing to live there.

When you couple this with drastic improvements to public transport, I think we can move to pretty much ideal cities within a single generation, without abolishing cars and too much inconvenience. It is much easier for newly build districts, but I think this concept can be retrofitted to existing areas very well, if you can find enough parking spaces or garages at least.
The isn't meant as any kind of defense regarding Trump or his supporters, but it seems under-discussed to me:

The Democrats offered a really bad alternative (Biden) for most of the campaign season. Even if you liked his politics, there was (IMHO) legitimate reason to question his mental competence.

My guess is that Trump would have lost if the Democrats had fielded a less-bad alternative.
I remember being turned off from it for the same reasons, in particular there were some fairly harsh comments directed to V's developer which felt a bit dog piley to me. Drama's long dead now.. It is a great language though. Closest to the language that would kill C for me so far, but not quite =D
So many comments are about devs pushing for features only, but I’d argue we don’t even get that on time.

Apple Intelligence is chronically late, and systematically underwhelming and mostly useless.

Everyone is part of the problem: I see many developers stopping when it’s good enough, managers firing QA because it works well enough, users having not much choice, and finally, users being used to software of dubious quality everywhere accepting it as normal (so they will pay anyways).
Understanding Postgres Gin Indexes
But it's not a solution, that's the problem.

I am currently at my desk, in my office. Am I working?

For roughly two years during the pandemic, I was at home using my laptop. Was I working?

Furthermore, for most office work, there is more to working than a binary "are you doing it or not?" Being at your desk working says nothing about the quality of your work, which any competent manager should absolutely be capable of assessing from the work itself.

Finally, you're making a huge assumption:

> if there really is widespread slacking happening

Is there any evidence that this is happening? I guarantee you that the kind of manager who does this will not know, because they have no effective metrics.

It's also precisely the kind of thing that toxic management culture says workers are always doing (or trying to do): It perpetuates the idea that Managers, who are perfect, pure beings with only the Might Company's best interests at heart, are always at odds with Workers, who are lazy good-for-nothings only ever interested in getting the most money possible for the least amount of work possible, and who must always be treated as if they are trying to steal their time from the Mighty Company.
You’re misapprehending the logic of the discussion. OP suggests that this is a regional conflict without implications for US interests (see their response to my comment if you think my interpretation is off). I said, “Really?” My questioning that claim doesn’t imply any commitment to the claim that the US must intervene in all conflicts that have implications for US interests.

What, no. I guess he would rather do something else than be a wartime president.

trump should call putin a dictator, because.. he obviously is, but for some reason he chose to attack Zelensky instead.

How can there be elections when there are millions of people displaced, there are large parts of the country occupied and huge part of the population is on the front defending the country.

This "dictator" stuff is just straight russian propaganda, that americans have been swallowing up because someone told trump it was true.
You can kind of get that now with the 360-degree rotation laptops, which are available with Windows or Chrome OS. I haven't used a Windows one, but Chrome OS behaves pretty nicely as a tablet.

The trouble though is, once you get an acceptable laptop keyboard and a corresponding screen, the resulting device seems excessively heavy and bulky when flipped over into the tablet form factor. You probably won't want to hold it up for more than 10 minutes.

I like the idea of one all-in-one device, but it's hard to see a way around these things. The cheesy tiny portable "keyboards" they make for tablets are pretty lame for extended typing, but better keyboards are too heavy for tablets. Meanwhile, I expect a desktop device to have the compute horsepower and RAM that are tough to get in a proper tablet form factor.
