> Putin is more than happy to take a deal that means they win.

That is not at all evident. Russia's economy is in a terrible spot, and might collapse entirely without the war ('special military operation') effort.
Also cutting hours sounds terribly out of touch with the gig economy dilemma, I'd rather be let go than put on half my salary?
Perhaps in your segment of the industry.

I’ve worked in places where people stuck around for years because they believed in the company and technology and wanted to successfully ship a product. In fact, I still view repeated 18-month stints as a bit of a red flag.

It’s a big industry. There’s a difference between a norm and something that a sizable subset of people do.
22:17 Paris time : no e-mail. Lyon is now the hinterlands ?
The base model 3 and seal are about $10k difference in AU (not a huge difference in that price range) and the BYD is slower with less range.

Personally every time I've rented a BYD (only the Atto admittedly) I've found the UI to be awful. The two Android screens are often out of sync on key information, and the interior looks like it was designed by Homer Simpson making a "future car".
The EU has to start working more with China, for better or worse.

Not as friends or allies, but there aren't a lot of those left anyway. It's only rational in this multi polar world to have some level of engagement with all parties.

Most of the sanctions Europe have on China were just to please the US anyway.
Ask HN: What's to prevent someone from spoofing a website?
I just got an email from Backblaze about resetting my credentials, because they detected they were not secure enough. And I thought -- why can't the entire thing be done from a website with a very similar unicode character somewhere in there, such as a or the russian "B"?

The entire website can be cloned (or just that one page).

But they'll just ask you to enter your existing password, before changing it.

Many people would fall for it. They see the green lock, the https://secure.Backblaze.com or whatever. And then what?

Sites can mitigate this by sending a "magic link" to your email to authorize any important actions, like a password change. That way they won't be able to make use of "what you know", without also getting into your email ("what you have").

But instead, many sites ask you to confirm it on your authenticator app by entering a number on the site. The problem with this is that the attacker can just proxy this while having you on the line with some real-time some social engineering and enter the number themselves.

How much protection is there, really, against this? I ended up copying the link, deleting the domain and typing it myself just in case.
This is clearly misinformation, and repeating it won’t make it true.

He said «my heart goes out to you». Without a video of him saying that nobody would have blinked an eye at the contents of what he said. You know, content, the thing Martin Luther King said we should judge people by.

This is a pretty bad problem (or «strategy») with the modern left. They imagine something into existence, either now, or more commonly in a vague future.

They then base their political platform on these imagined or assumed things. They do this all the time.

The Elon nazi thing is probably the most extreme and obvious case I’ve seen of this, and I’m honestly shocked to see the amount of people taking it seriously.

The left should, like Bill Maher recently said, focus on providing a viable alternative instead of trying to see who can act the most unhinged.
because we already collaborate, sell and trade with them all the time.

might as well collaborate with them on this as well.
Good.

I kind of have to sit back and laugh at the "I'm a genius / Oh no!" schadenfreude of his decision-making of late. Nevermind his present playbook is directly ripped from Bob Page (billionaire villain of Deus Ex), but seeing people tie themselves up into knots to still defend his "4D-Chess Brilliance" as he keeps footgunning his business enterprises just makes me facepalm at the sheer stupidity of these bootblacks.

The guy invested in an EV company and built a cult of personality around going lean, mean, and green with EVs. Sporty, well-built cars with tasteful interiors and designs, that also did away with the traditional American dealership model. That worked, because it was an objectively good idea. Then he cut costs, lost the plot, and did everything he could to game the share price rather than run a better car company. As a result, others began moving into the space and copying Tesla's M.O.: in-vehicle surveillance tech, cloud-required connectivity, a focus on digital features over physical reliability, cheaper materials at higher costs, etc. So now the car market is full of "pseudo-Teslas" that nobody can afford, and nobody really wants; if we're going to buy a cheap piece of junk, we can buy a used car with the advantage it won't spy on us.

He did the same thing with SpaceX: transformed the company into a payload juggernaut, lost the plot, invested into every ancillary market possible, threw out quality control, and seems content riding wave after wave of massive explosions instead of serious R&D and QA/QC while pivoting to internet service that's angering governments, environmentalists, and scientists alike.

I could repeat this with X and DOGE, but we all know the scorecard there. The dude has completely lost the plot, and is high on his own supply. He doesn't invest assuming failure and preparing for success, he invests assuming success and failure isn't a possibility (which, to be fair, is kind of true when you've captured weakened governments).

He's just a bad leader. Full stop. If his companies' boards weren't packed with boot-licking sycophants, they'd likely have tossed his butt out for doing drugs on multiple interviews like some sort of college drug dealer instead of a C-Suite visionary.
Are people still using Bluesky? It's been pegged at around 30M total (not sure of daily) users since it opened up.
> the US shine

Oh no! We lost our "shine" because we aren't the premier weapons dealer on the planet anymore!

> a massive effect on the US economy

You see the problem. You just ignore it. You pretend it's a secret virtue.

> end of an empire

Good. I'm absolutely tired of being a citizen of an "empire." Take your dusty imperialism and go away; please, your warmongering ways absolutely disgust me.

> a direct attack against their own personal interests

It's not. You want it to be for propaganda purposes. See what I mean about living in an empire? This is completely churlish and gross.
But those are all variations of if-else, right?

The alternative to if-else would be something like `assuming-otherwise`.

The point was that there wasn’t really a pressing need to reinvent the *p/&p syntax.
Just like a normal day in the office
Despite no evidence that this actually works. Plus the vast majority of experts on the topic saying it doesn’t work, but also, we’ve tried it and it doesn’t work.
“The Blue Report” seems an apt name.
There was another website which let you find movie quotes. You search for quote and it brought up small clip where characters are saying that thing you searched for. Had very similar UI, can't find it.
Edit: probably https://clip.cafe/ there are few others too

There is another one which is like a Netflix of subplots extracted from movies. I remember it had lots from Rick and Morty. Because Rick and morty keeps bringing up random subplots never to discuss ever again.

There is another website which is a gif database of awesome shots from movies etc. It's like a reference database of camera work.

Will list when I find these urls.
It will take more than 3 years to get a mining franchise operational.
The IT systems are the least of the problems. Who in their right mind would aspire or begin a career in government/public work with this being a possibility. This is a generational scar that you will fundamentally alter the way civil servants interact with their organizations.
Makes sense, just adding the data point though. They weren't a common car here before that either.
Imagine the following variables:

* CalcitrolLevel: float

* CalcitrolReserveCapacity: float

* Is_Energetic: bool

Imagine the following equation:

* Is_Energetic = CalcitrolLevel > 90% of CalcitrolReserveCapacity

For most people, it will take days, weeks, or even months to come above 90%. But for those who have dipped just below 90%, such as to 89%, if they're optimally healthy in other ways, they will see a rapid rise in energy by high dose D3. If it's not this, then there is something else going on physiologically to explain the subjective effect.
Have you considered that the reason there are fewer self-directed learners today is because the framework for basic rational thought and critical thinking was never taught, and as a result of the friction in such cases needed to "play" and by extension "learn" anything, the friction exceeds the benefit they can possibly receive so they get stuck and don't do it.

This presents a problem both in terms of the learner being tested, and the test maker (who may have formed the questions irrationally and non-deterministically in the first place).

The Greeks knew how to do this best. Information transfer today makes no differentiation between true and false information. Its completely by rote.
For what languages would removing 'std::' realistically cause ambiguity for practicioners?
I have an AA1 somewhere, mine has an Intel Atom.

Worked great until I updated Linux to discover that I could no longer install the stupid proprietary driver for the graphics, so lost hardware accelerated graphics. Was never able to downgrade successfully.

I've been idly looking for something modern to replace it but seems like there's nothing like that on the market now.
Well then it sounds like around 30M users are using it.
Are you proposing that Denmark is a part of the EU because it does not produce its own cars?

Cars are incredibly expensive in Denmark (Not quite Singapore levels, but high). This, however, is more grounded in a cultural difference where walkable cities are preferred.

The US is incredibly car centric - to an extend where US trips can be directly read in my stress levels as measured on my watch. The US is so incredibly noisy and smelly.
>This happens not to reduce cost but to stress out remaining employees.

Or to cull the low performers.

I personally am less stressed when the competition I outperform gets fired.
It replaced Twitter for me. I use Bluesky on a daily basis. Closed my Twitter account last week.
And what - you're saying they should have? Like we should now? We should all just go to war all the time whenever someone calls for it?
Pretty much everyone I know abandoned everything else, with the exception of a few Mastodon users. If it's at 30M still, that's probably the limit to how many people still care at all.
At 7 transactions/second? Good luck.
Bernie’s Sanders is very easy to attack because of how fast he folded to the DNC in the past decade.

Even for the Trump "bull in the china shop" voter, Sanders has become less relevant in 2020 and 2024 because he offers so little and for someone so called principled, he doesn’t hold the same ideas on immigration that he has before.
Before Lincoln states had much more power. Both Lincoln and Wilson curtailed civil liberties. Wilson created the income tax which gave the president a large source of income. FDR created the bureaucracy that spends the income tax money.
It’s typically motivated by some desire to slant the figures, or else just not realizing how the funding is structured. Serious discussion of the budget doesn’t include Social Security.

Anecdotal but I just purchased an Atto3 in Melbourne. Tesla wasn't even considered after Musk's behaviour and the value for money that the BYD provides.

The reason I brought the Atto3 was after talking to 4 or 5 Uber drivers with them who swore by them.
I think people who focus too much on "whether he really meant it or really made the salute" etc, are missing the forrest for the trees.

He's a guy who supports the AFD, who has said "German people are too focused on the past and should get rid of national guilt" or something along these lines. He definitely spends a lot of time online regurgitating 4chan like memes (which fine, I do that too, but I'm not a world leader) and acts and talks like a person who is obsessed with white demographics in Western societies.

He has a reputation of someone who would plausibly do that as a playful nod towards his terminally online fanbase. That's the issue. His reputation makes it believable. Whether he really meant to or not has little to do with that fact. Ultimately one's reputation is everything in democratic politics

They did operate on a "continuous refresh" basis. However, it mostly stopped for almost 2 years now. Other than HW4 I don't think anything else is different between current models and their iterations 2 years ago.

Edit: mostly speaking about Model Y, as Model 3 had actual refresh recently.
The salute he did on stage was false?
The pro-gay claim is not sincere. See Jean-Paul Sartre for more explanation.
I hate to break it to you but it’s extremely common for Western employees to do the same. I had to investigate what seemed like a new employee attempting to begin an exfil of our source code only to discover what looked like all of EMC’s core code, the new employee’s last employer, in a gdrive folder.

Incredibly common.
I wound up deleting Bluesky (too) when a political fight about border security started between two accounts I follow for 1990s video game nostalgic content.

unsurprisingly most of these top stories are left-leaning and political of nature given blueskys reputation as being a refuge for exactly that kind of content post-Elon twitter.

I was personally hopeful that blueskys tools for user content filtering and personal curation would let me rebuild an interesting list that was mostly politics free - I say that agnostically.

But my reality seems to be anybody regularly posting into these networks winds up catching the “mind virtus” from one side or the other and inevitably most accounts, wind up reposting or engaging in that kind of content.

I don’t have a strong point given this is a lazy Sunday afternoon comment other than I truly appreciate HNs mostly successful efforts to keep discourse focused

And I think the despite its flaws HN winds up being a good blueprint for how to admin, community interest, focused discussions, and I’m hopeful, others will pop up!
I agree with everything that you've said. I think you're attacking args I haven't made- im against almost all of the current admin's policies including the tariffs. I'm pretty much only pro tariffs on China
The other downside is that us other drivers get to experience their beta testing in prod. Few things are as annoying as driving behind a Model Y where the adaptive high beams don't work properly, and getting flashed by every oncoming car for miles on end.

Meanwhile, Trump forgets what Aukus is, and one of his peoples is making concerned noises about whether it's a good idea ([1]).

If the point is to piss off every single one of the US' allies in an any% speedrun, the current administration seems to be doing a pretty bang-up job of this.

It's terrifying, though. The world's (current) superpower might have a big military and all, but actively signalling that you don't really need friends can only lead to a decrease in overall geopolitical stability, right?

Might want to check your math there. At $20/lb, zero waste (!!), 18g of coffee is $0.80/shot. Add in 10-15% waste (accurately predicting exact supply of beans is almost impossible, plus dialing in, mistakes, and training) and a more standard 22g basket, you get $1.12 per drink.

Aiming for 25% COGS, that pushes up the price of a cup to $4.50 before milk, syrups, cups, etc. If the cost of coffee doubled, you'd be looking at the cost of coffee only being 38% COGS for a $6 drink. That kind of increase is not only going to completely remove all margins, but likely put you in the red per drink served.
Vaccination rates embody the core political problem right now.

Ideally, "hacker news" is for people who have a hacker/engineer mindset. Look at the actual facts of the situation, not the flashy sales brochure.

Odds are that your second hypothesis is the correct one. You may wish to start by comparing what you think the current administration is doing with what it is actually doing.

You cannot count on Fox News to be accurate, they have never claimed to present "accurate" news.

> I can’t help but wonder if these mentors are also guilty of fabricating data and don’t want to cause issues that might lead to people looking at their own work more closely.

It's far more likely that they know whistleblowing creates far more pain than many people expect.

People who build their reputations on top of lies tend to lash out when threatened. They know they can't afford to have their lies revealed, so they launch an all-out offensive to discredit, bully, and push out their accusers.

I've seen it play out in the workplace a couple times now. Some people get downright vicious when they feel their reputation is at risk. I watched someone spend years trying to get another person fired simply because that person accidentally uncovered one of his lies. The person who discovered it wasn't even trying to do anything with the information, but the person who lied about it was so anxious about the fact that somebody knew that he started doing increasingly irrational and desperate things to push the other person out.

Assuming mining those minerals would actually make economic and strategic sense for US companies, considering significant long-term investments require stability. And that a significant US workforce would even be required for that. And that the US administration doesn't just make a bargain with Putin about leaving these mining operations alone while doing whatever the fuck else they want.
It’s not; it’s spam.
Because almost all software runs on arm today, almost none (comparatively) runs on risc-v.

I would like to see the trade deficit evening out, but even then, the deficit is ~0.6% of our GDP. Charitably, the intake of goods we do support keeps our internal economy extremely productive, so even at a deficit maybe it's worth it.

That said, it's not very difficult to fix the deficit if there were any will. And once fixed, the US would benefit from open maritime trade more than anyone else. Holding these bases helps us keep the world in order, and in the current order the US winds up on top. (Though the US does need to deal with China's incursions).

It's funny to see you use the word "evidentiary" when you do not apply any standard to your own comments. If you do reply, please try to back up your points, since I'd like to understand where you're coming from.
I agree with you that most American cars are junk. I hate all these same features plus others like the weird headlight controls, parking break on the floor in non-trucks, not to mention the loose feeling brakes and steering.

Traditionally, GM sold other models overseas through brands like Holden or Opel, but these have all been sold off or shut down over the past decade or so except in China. GM now has a much heavier reliance on trucks and SUVs in the North American market. They sell some of those same product overseas still, but in much smaller quantities than before.

There can potentially be a number of issues here.

In cellular networks, you have this very real effect called RNA interference. Its where an area is flooded with a fragment that binds to targets blocking them from binding with specific receptor sites. This is being done at scale through ghost jobs, and fake postings. A candidate has a finite set amount of time they can spend. If you aren't getting applications, either you have a very bad reputation, or they are being blocked before you ever see them.

Independent action and learning depends upon rational frameworks of mind. The prussian model of schooling has always been about eliminating this in exchange for a unthinking, loyal worker.
Back on my day, we already had real-time rendering of LateX on Solaris workstations used by our professors on the computing department.

I created an h3 polars implementation and I think one of the big one's is flow modeling. As other's have mentioned, each hexagon has 6 equidistant neighbors. As a result, it lends itself to analyzing telematics data (hence Uber's backing of h3) - I attached a colab notebook where I do some of this. Trying to do this sort of analysis any other way would be incredibly painful.

Come on, that’s not what you really do, but an oversimplification that skimps on the actually hard parts.

You manage (as few as possible) connections to a DBMS, create prepared statements, cache and transform results, lazily iterate over large result sets, batch writes, manage schema migrations, and more. It’s not very basic, unless you’re cobbling up a prototype.
