> Nationalization of foreign assets is an extreme level of hostility that stable European governments would have no chance of doing

I see the point. But I would not underestimate the grit of Europeans when backed into a corner, like this

The USA a Europe had very friendly relations for decades, that has changed overnight.

All bets are off
If the goal is to decouple from the U.S., why would the EU want to collaborate with a totalitarian state like China?
Don't work to do what? If you think layoffs are about efficiency or saving the company, at least in tech you couldn't be more wrong. Companies like Meta and Google have done multiple rounds of layoffs despite being insanely profitable and never taking a loss.

The real purpose of layoffs is to get people to do more work for the same or less money (by firing people and distributing their responsibilities to those who remain) and to suppress wages because nobody is asking for raises when they fear for their jobs.

Big Tech is really out of ways to grow their business. The only way they can keep growing profits is by cutting costs and the biggest cost is labor. It's really that simple.

It's more topical than many articles posted here imo. But topical is in the eye of the beholder.
I do think there will be a recession yes. But within 6 to 18 months, the recession could be over with and growth will come back as the US rebuilds some of its industrial base. US imports and exports will decrease over time.

Note: it is my prediction at 70% (e.g. I think there is 70% that it will happen).
They’re useless when used as blunt instruments as we’re seeing today. Broad tariffs on raw materials and goods - the cost hurts the general public more than any benefit to the few.

There’s a place for tariffs. Protecting against countries that undercut us by skirting international labor or environmental laws is a decent example. Protecting a specific, narrow industry that has national defense implications could be another.

But against Canada and Mexico? GTFO. That’s nonsense that’s going to hurt the average consumer.
IIRC the US-UK CLOUD Act Agreement extended the jurisdiction of each parties warrants onto the other parties territory.

I have not looked at the US-EU agreement.
It's quite telling that you see this as remotely comparable to how the executive is being conducted right now.
> Revocation and renewal are much different things

As best I can tell, the State Department exercises the same of rules (enshrined in law) during both renewal and revocation.

The adjacent thread points out that visa eligibility already contains explicit proscriptions around expression: advocating for a designated terrorist group makes one ineligible for a visa, per federal law. I'm not aware of any challenge to that rule that's been mounted on 1A grounds.

(I don't think anything Trump says about the Take It Down Act is relevant here. That's an entirely separate miscarriage of justice that does have 1A relevance.)

How do they justify buying US war tech? By understanding what the US will do to their country if they don't buy it, and figuring out how to sugar coat this to their populace.
What a great saying. I feel this in my very core.

Dealing with poverty in my youth, homeless at 16, no parents to help me, debilitating ADHD, tourettic OCD, bipolar type II, CPTSD from 10 years of intense childhood physical/emotional abuse, my full-ride college scholarships illegally stolen from me by a high school who knew I was homeless and had no recourse and allowed a teacher to illegally modify my grades out of pure spite, malnourished, intense, crippling sciatica, fused lumbar discs, possible fibromyalgia, and then developing excruciating daily pains and physical disability which greatly impacted my life and sometimes made me suicidal, which turned out to be an autoimmune disorder that took 10 years for doctors to figure out... an extremely intense case of gout developing since my teens...

I just keep pushing on but every day I see people who take so much for granted, and who are so ready to pass judgement without appreciating the basic privilege of good health.

I've had to deal with so much struggle that the average person wouldn't even want to take the time to hear all of it much less believe it, once someone momentarily realizes that they'd have it comparatively easy compared to others, they often get defensive as they begin to realize that their life doesn't have nearly as many barriers as they've convinced themselves, and they have to come to terms with not applying themselves harder. It's easier for them to be dismissive and tell me, "all your problems would go away if you worked out more" or tell me to get on a keto diet, or whatever have you, as if I haven't tried every single thing I can think of.

And the insane thing is I am still quite privileged compared to some people in war-torn countries, even if they are able to move around without swallowing a truckload of ibuprofen. Reminding myself of that is a source of strength and determination to keep moving forward.
It's a very narrow reading of his comment. What he meant to say was it quickly created a rudimentary version of an AI code editor.

Just as a coworker used it to develop an AI code review tool in a day. It's not fancy - no bells and whistles, but it's still impressive to do it in a day with almost no manual coding.
Actually, I am not young. I just retired and have been thinking about my life, career, etc. I do not have a disability (my wife may disagree) and I agree it makes life more challenging (wouldn’t be called a disability otherwise). I also agree with you that life can be hard, children are born with health challenges, children make poor decisions with terrible consequences, spouse dies, you get cancer, etc. We all need to get through these. That does not change the fact that we all have decisions to make everyday about our careers, our families, our health, our financial situation, and so on. When we look at those who made different decisions, it does not necessarily mean they made better or worse decisions, just different decisions.

I have been thinking about this a lot recently. A former boss and good friend who is incredibly smart and effective in the work place asked why the two of us had never gone the PE route and been more successful. While he is very successful by most standards, he sees people flying private jets all the time who do not appear more skillful, yet have been more successful. As I think on this, I feel I simply was never willing to go all in on the risk required to achieve that level of financial success. I tried co-founding a company once when I was 28 while engaged and importantly, before children. I felt I could take the risk and if I failed, could bounce back. I did fail - company did ok but my I ended up disliking working with my senior partner - and I did bounce back, ending up at GE.

After that, I did not feel comfortable taking that level of risk until my children were off to college and no longer dependent on me an I had enough money saved that my wife and I would be ok for a long time. The people I know who have been jet-money financially successful took huge risks. They were all in on their venture(s). Frequently this cost them their marriage and/or relationships with the children. This was their choice. Their cost/benefit analysis to optimize their success criteria. Some regret the decisions - they underestimated the effort and impact on those they cared about. However, most have not. They are happy with how things have turned out.

Different strokes for different folks.
ARM Holdings is a subsidiary of SoftBank Group, and so not a US company. In what other sense is it coupled with the US?
Much like how Americans can be good people under asinine leadership, Israel ends up criticized for the actions taken by their government.

If Israel wanted a goody-two-shoes relationship with their neighbors then they should have considered that when they annexed the Golan Heights.
Love this. Thank you. I'm eating lunch at the moment, by myself, in a local casual establishment, so of course I pulled out my phone and the first thing I looked at was HN and this was the top post. I started playing and couldn't help smiling. Felt like I was watching a robot mimicking me as it was studying human behavior.

It also got me thinking about what I would do before smart phones. During the dumb phone era I was still pulling out my phone to text a lot so wasn't too different, but I also read books a lot more back then
yikes. you run updates while working? that's not recommended at all.

Shareholders don't have "primacy", eg they're last in bankruptcy. If you're asking for them to never get anything, then they're not going to participate, and this is supposedly a forum about startups.

In tech the employees also tend to be shareholders which I think is healthier.
Because they went in to protect their own interests in the world after the world war 2. They dropped 2 nukes on Japan, remained in the country, and now they want money. Crazy people.
Doesn't seem like that would have made anything better though. I thought the general consensus was that direct action would have just escalated things?

I watched a video recently that discussed all the grudges against the West/NATO Russia (Putin) has been holding onto since the mids 90s that makes them feel justified now.
I disagree. The majority of HN readers are Americans and a vocal and active subset don’t like seeing articles which are critical of their “great” nation.
In electoral democracies people have to vote for you.
I have Israeli friends across the spectrum (except maybe ultra-orthodox, but including Ukrainian/Russian olim). I also have friends from Lebanon (not even Arabs). They all share different stories, many of them very ugly ones, — and not just about Palestinians. And many of them are Jewish and critical of Jewish policies.

I know plenty of Israelis who are genuinely trying, and there are many of liberal-minded people with their conscience absolutely in the right place. I don't want to badmouth any of them.

My point is — if the same level of "trying" happened elsewhere (like in Xinjiang), Americans and Europeans would instantly brand it the worst kind of totalitarianism.

It's astonishing how the same first-rank predators who've been devouring the world for 500 years now posture as moral messiahs. And that's coming from me — one of them.
Can probably also use other missiles but I agree we need to get rid of all US dependencies and I guess a lot of effort is going on now to see what can be done to get rid of the American engine.

Maybe a cooperation with French (Safran) or British (Rolls Royce) industry could remove their reliance on the Americans? (Not suggesting overnight but over the next 2 - 7 years.)
And non-Apple Silicon is British?
What a reductionist cliche of a moral position.
Get out of an unwinnable war with minimal losses and re-group for the war that will really matter. China.
This is yet another "People said the US would never do that, it would undermine their credibility too much, we shouldn't spread FUD -> oops, they did it anyway" moment.

I'm hoping that people eventually understand that "losing credibility" isn't a deterrent when the offending party is entrenched enough that they believe (correctly or not) that everyone will keep buying their stuff anyway.
Biden was the strongest supporter of workers unions we have ever had, and the left in the US reviled Biden. Including the unions, largely.

It's time to stop thinking in materialist terms when analyzing US politics, that has completely flown the coop. It's all culture war.
What’s with all the flags hovering round the page? Very distracting, worse than most adverts.
Even if that were the case, is it wrong to support research into health related outcomes for American citizens? There’s nothing wrong with working on research to make American citizens medical and life outcomes better. That’s what government should be doing.

Eh. They aren't meant to be delivered for at least 5 years by which point US politics will have swung the other direction again.
Extremely good is getting a bit over the top. The Gripen was designed in the 80's and it shows. It cannot really compare with something like the F-22 or 35 on anything substantial except cost. And if you're optimizing for cost, it becomes a question of how many pilots you're willing to lose to make it fulfill realistic roles.
Because a lot of tech workers today aren't actually job hopping and instead get very cozy in a job and a team and a career trajectory, which feels unfairly ripped away during layoffs for reasons that don't feel connected to their personal performance.
How do you know I have good health? What an incredibly smug comment meant to silence someone with no basis in fact.
Good read.

I do have a question on the BigQuery. i f you were experiencing unpredictable query costs or customization issues, that sounds like user error. There are ways to optimize or commit slots for reducing the cost. Did you try that ?
It's almost like things have happened between then and now.
Look what’s happened: the Europeans are now unanimous on the idea that European rearmament is necessary for survival, and have a political environment that allows them to sell that idea to their electorates. Electorates that historically have been opposed to spending on military over healthcare and social programs.

And once that rearmament happens, or is underway to an extent that it’s irreversible, what is the US going to do?

They’ll simply resume the same leadership position they always held, but now over a greatly reinforced alliance. And the Europeans will say, thank goodness the US is back. Aren’t we all safer now.
> This person is pregnant. From this fact alone we can infer the presence of a female reproductive system.

No, no you can't. You can in 99% of circumstances, but not absolutely. They may also have a penis, or testicles, or any combination of reproductive organs. Yes, really.

But even if you could assume this, which you can't, you ALSO can't assume that a female reproductive system makes a woman. Because gender is complicated.

For example, you might call the bank teller "ma'am". Did you examine her reproductive organs? No, right? So this should be impossible - how did you know she was a woman?

Because, regardless of what bumbling idiots on the internet will claim, gender is inherently a social construct. You understand she is a woman because of the societal context of her clothes, her face, her hair, her makeup, and 1001 other tiny little things. Your brain then computes these all together and you determine "woman". But, she could have a penis.

In fact, just statistically speaking, you've encountered many women with penises and you will never know who they are, because they are women by your own perception. The same goes with men. Whether you choose to acknowledge this or remain a bumbling idiot, I do not care. This conversation is stupid, and frankly beneath me.
I can count on more than one hand the times where I had to reverse quickly because my current position was putting myself or others at risk, either because of my fault or because of careless drivers fault.

All in all, it's a control that helps you maneuver a 2 tons vehicle, like your wheel, your gas pedal and your brake pedal.

I personally think this kind of control should never depend on a flimsy touchscreen that can break or bug more easily than a mechanical control (although I agree it's less important that the wheel and pedals).
I lived through the 1980ies, and I still have trouble processing the idea that the anti-Soviet, rah-rah patriot types that loved movies like Red Dawn are now in bed with the Russians. It's just bizarre.

I enjoy caffeine but also take some medications that exacerbate the feelings of irritability/jitteriness when combined with caffeine - anecdotally, extended release theanine taken with my coffee alleviates it.

No one can sell at a loss all the time. That's just stupidity. Either I get a return on money invested later or I get a return on my balance sheet now in the form of profit. Shareholders primacy is because they can only be cut trough a buyout.
Both ARM and RISC-V are Reduced Instruction Set Compute (RISC) instead of Complex Instruction Set Compute (CISC aka x86) architectures. So it's more about the tooling that makes one better than the other. And like all open source, the tooling will be better over time as people and organizations recognize they get more back out of contributing to open systems.
Be very careful about that B6 dosage. It's possible to overdose on b6 at surprisingly low doses. It doesn't usually cause permanent damage, but anecdotal reports suggest it can take months to a year to recover from b6 neuropathy.

Of Looking at a Ruby Symbol (2007)
RISC-V is probably no different than ARM at it's core. Also, both of them are RISC ISAs.

Right now, you are far more likely to use RISC-V and not know it than to knowingly interact with RISC-V directly. For example, since about 2015, Nvidia has used RISC-V as an onboard controller for their GPUs.
> The US can probably consider most-all ARM IP to be dual use technology and immediately deny use of it.

The US (certainly the current US) can do that, but (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arm_Holdings):

“Arm Holdings plc (formerly an acronym for Advanced RISC Machines and originally Acorn RISC Machine) is a Japanese-owned British semiconductor and software design company based in Cambridge, England”
A more risky job should be compensated more ? It'd be the opposite, if it's risky then the variance of the income should be greater (success = more income)

I don't want to present the problem as black and white but merely express a simple idea : developers DO want to be managed to simplify their lives and focus their time on more important things for them
The US and the Soviets were able to cooperate on space missions in spite of their enmity. It's not unreasonable to think that Europe could work with China on a scientific mission, even if the EU or its member states want to keep China at arms-length otherwise. There's an interesting moral quandary there, as to whether cooperation with a totalitarian regime helps diminish or consolidate the regime's power, but this daylight savings thing here in the US is throwing me for a loop so I'm going to have to leave that unanswered for now.
I expect knowing this new f35 deliveries will have hardware just different enough to need new software.

As for BigQuery, while it's a great tool, we faced challenges with high-volume, small queries where costs became unpredictable as it is priced per data volume scanned. Clustered tables, Materialised views helped to some extent, but they didn’t fully mitigate the overhead for our specific workloads. There are ways to overcome and optimize it for sure so i wouldn't exactly put it on GBQ or any limitations.

It’s always a trade-off, and we made the call that best fit our scale, workloads, and long-term plans

This only makes sense for C++ where they weirdly namespaced their standard library after popularising the language. But as your parent points out, other languages use this naming style.

One issue I have is governments that serve their own CA which you must trust before accessing their services. BR, IN, CN, RU, some US federal services (which might still exist after musk junta took over), ES, etc...

I'm fine with some gov bureaucrat setting the keys for their own services, but the CAs are usually able to sign for all the internet. Would be nice if browsers/OS would allow an easy way to limit the TLDs you accept to trust a CA, but that is on the cert.

It's strange to me that this isn't simply automated, although personally I don't think any state should be in the business of killing anyone outside of war and similar circumstances. I don't think states are capable of making these sorts of decisions accurately enough.
Assuming that does happen, it won’t be “in a few months”. At best, this is a timeline measured in years if not decades.
As an observation, when the US originally licensed out the AR-15 to other countries they often also had to license aluminum foundry tech at the same time. We take it for granted now because that tech is old.

The ability to scale advanced or exotic materials science at will was a cornerstone of why US weaponry is difficult to copy. People always underestimate this aspect but it is a major reason why manufacturing of state-of-the-art hardware is not fungible.
I think LaTeX set out to be a decent typesetter (in the sense if the profession) for books.
With human typesetting already becoming a rare profession LaTeX turned out to be the better typesetter for almost everyone in the 90s. Also InDesign came along and fulfilled that promise well for the other half of the market that had money but no inclination to work the WYSIWYM way. This lead to LaTeX' big success in the academic world.

I think typst can't hold a candle to any of the two when it comes to the previous flagship
discipline of setting narrow columns of fully justified and hyphenated[1] text utilizing microtypography to equalize the grey value.

I do not know what the plans for typst are, but I think it will
have a niche even if it will
never come to par with LaTeX and InDesign.

Their capabilities are a thing for old style physical books and not even for what we call books now.
Full justification is as dead as narrow columns and hyphenation. 30 years of web changed our reading habits. What we think of books now is mostly meant to be readable on a screen.

I also think scientific papers should adapt to that fact. Of course without throwing the baby out with the bathwater. Being able to share papers as self-contained files is a big plus and high quality math typesetting is a must.
Columnar and fully justified serif text on the other hand is just baggage.

If typst can be the accessible tool for scientific publication that'd be fantastic. If it gains enough legacy features to
replace LaTeX completely even better.

[1] Especially when it comes to languages with long words and complicated hyphenation rules like German.

P.S. Unironically always enjoyed TeX and LaTeX. Enjoy typst too, just not as a full (La)TeX replacement (yet).
