I was rewatching Max Headroom recently and my favorite episode stood out to me. It's about an addictive game show called "Whacketts" which is so mind-numbingly insipid that even the punk operator of the pirate TV station that runs the show wonders why it's so popular. Turns out that the Whacketts broadcast is interlaced with a signal that looks like rapidly changing hexadecimal numbers and functions as a "drug" that induces euphoria in anyone who is visually exposed to it.

When I was a kid I thought this was somewhat dodgy science fiction. As an adult in the age of Cocomelon and Skibidi Toilet, I'm not so sure.

It is not a person, so I don't talk to it like a person. I dislike when AIs are programmed to act like people. It's a pointless waste of my time. Just give me the answer.
Why does it irritate me? Because I genuinely care about things like user privacy and I wish we had regulations which were actually well designed to achieve their goals. It seems to me that legislators think “what would I like to happen” and then stop there. They don’t seem to consider enforcement or other practical effects at all.

I’m honestly baffled that anyone could think that the cookie popups are a success. Like if we are going to mandate that everyone implement some new scheme, can we at least make it a good one? The lowest possible bar might be something like a standardized setting in browsers. Something actually good for user privacy might mean imposing some cost on companies that want to sell user information, so there are actually incentive's for companies to respect user privacy.

Maybe I am way off, but I think the group of people that "enjoy" going through cookie popups, like yourself, are a distinct minority. For most people, it's an annoyance.
The idea that driving a car increases freedoms is a uniquely American ideal.

It doesn’t, it does the opposite. It pushes everything further away which means you no longer have the freedom to not have a car. It, quite literally, redesigns our cities to become dependent on them.

It’s like heroin. Sure, it feels good, but at what cost? How do we stop now?
Absolutely. My current product relies heavily on a handful of partner systems and, adds an opinionated layer on top of these systems, and propagates data to CRM, DW, and other analytical systems.

One early insight was that we needed a representation of partner data in our database (and the downstream systems need a representation of our opinionated view as well). This is clearly an (eventually consistent) synchronization problem.

We also realized that we often either fail to sync (due to bugs, timing, or whatever) and need a regular process to resync data.

We've ended up with a homegrown framework that does both things, such that the same business logic gets used in both cases. This also makes it easy to backfill data if a chosen representation changes)

We're now on the third or fourth iteration of this system and I'm pretty happy with it.
Yes. Smart wheels. I came here for the smart wheels.

I don't disagree with anything you say. I'm not saying that C should have 1-based indices, for example. I'm only saying that from a language design perspective, ignoring technical limitations and historical precedents, 1-based indices would be preferable.

Summary for the time-pressed:

Large Reasoning Models (LRMs) are a new type of AI system designed to perform specific types of reasoning. They generate “chains of thought” to solve problems, mimicking human reasoning processes. While LRMs have shown impressive performance on benchmarks, their robustness, trustworthiness, and interpretability remain uncertain, raising questions about their ability to handle real-world problems.
I know it's not made for games, but the thing is I am seeing Parsec-level performance and quality from RustDesk which why I am liking it so much.

With modern hardware with RustDesk you are getting HEVC or even AV1 hardware encoded high framerate stream of your desktop.

I have never seen this kind of performance through MS RDP personally.
Ouch, yeah. I loved the idea of it. I mean, I have a Stream Deck sitting on my desk as I type this, and that's basically a large, freestanding Touch Bar.

But whoever decided to replace physical keys instead of augmenting them with an additional control was out of their mind. And an undifferentiated escape key? On a pro laptop with lots of programmers? The mind boggles.
> Please remember that State of Utopia is not a business.

I'm not talking about the "State of Utopia". I'm talking about advertising. Since I don't really have a clue what this "State of Utopia" is about, if that's the real topic of discussion, then I have nothing useful to add.

> It sounds like your answer defers this to times that you are actively searching for products.

Yes.

> Are you all right with our ads showing up in your search results when using our state search engine to browse for products that meet your needs, and if you can see that these ads do not track you?

I would accept that such ads wouldn't have serious ethical issues, if that's what you mean. But, honestly, I wouldn't pay attention to ads. When I'm looking for a solution to some problem I have, a search engine isn't the only (sometimes not even the primary) method I use and I ignore any obvious advertising that may turn up in the course of it. Sales pitches are not useful to me for this.
I skipped most of the x86 era. I had the first Intel Mac mini connected to my TV running Front Row in 2006. But after that I didn’t buy another Mac until the M2 MacBook Air in 2023.

At the end of the day, I was just not that impressed with the x86 based Macs. They had all of the drawbacks of x86 with all of the added disadvantages of Ive inspired design which led to poor heat dissipation, not enough ports and butterfly keyboards
Dagger is so great! It's my favorite new tool for devops and CI/CD/CT. If you've ever wrestled with anything like Jenkins or GitHub Actions, then give Dagger a try. This SWE agent is a perfect example of why Dagger is more powerful, more flexible, and makes more sense than typical devops IaC. (I'm not affiliated with Dagger, merely really happy about it)
Fun fact, Rusty was originally going to be the main character. And if you put Bluey next to Rusty, you'll see they're the same shape, just colored differently.

Existing municipalities tend to require HOAs for new subdivisions because it reduces the administrative overhead on their end. The services a HOA provides are mostly things which would otherwise have to be done by the city.
I can only hope you are right.
It would be disingenuous if it weren’t for the fact that tens of thousands of innocent bystanders that Israel deemed subhuman are dead. That bloody smoking gun seems to be escaping you both.

Even if you don’t think Israel’s neighbors deserve life, you have to recognize that the entirety of western civilization and the Islamic world both see what Israel is doing as reprehensible.

Now I’m not asking you to say they’re right because they’re the vast majority (that would be subjective), what I’m asking you to agree with is that Israel needs to stop making everyone hate them, because it will be worse for Israel if everyone hates them.

That is an objective fact I hope we can agree on, regardless of the value you place on human life.

Bluey is the best kids show we found.

Or, maybe it's the best show for the parents. I'm literally watching it by myself after my kid goes to bed.

I really appreciate that the show doesn't hesitate to include some ordinary parenting interactions like Muffin took Stripe's phone and he chased her through the whole house, and Bandit making shenanigans.
Bluey may have done more for fathers (and families) than anything in recent history. So many are dealing with fatherhood without having a role model themselves, and everything on TV being "fat dumb lovable idiot" sitcom-types.

The episode "The Sign" is an incredibly deep story from multiple angles.

Agree, except I think you missed the beginning of that episode.

Like there are no overnight successes, there are many prompts and maybe not the best strategies (such as “I’ll give you a dollar if you clean up”).
One thing to note about "big companies" is that everyone involved at the upper levels are rich enough to engage in recreational lawsuits. So if you say anything true about their performance, you get hit with a defamation lawsuit, possibly in a speech-hostile venue like England. The end result is a conspiracy where it's in everyone's best interest to lie about their peer's performance.

These are "APE[0] hires". Their goal is not to build a better company, their goal is to trade favors and power around a select set of elites brought together by a mutual hatred of the rest of us. You hire an APE for the same reason why royal families used to marry their daughters off - it's a way to trade power. "Worked at big companies" is a code-word for "has enough clout to play with the other lizard people in the room".

There are the chemistry problems but the big one is "how did supermassive black holes get so big?" Webb is finding what seem to be huge black holes way back but the black hole problem has been around for at least 25 years if not more.

Supernovae can create black holes in the 10's of solar mass range and they can merge but it would take a long time for those to find each other to merge to the 60 billion solar mass range. You might have processes that make 10^5 solar mass black holes but it would still take a lot of time for those to find each other and merge to make supermassive black holes.

Right, saving them the obvious 400 dollars we tacked on, and then an additional ~15% of their gross income by not operating a car.

> I’ve yet to see a code base that has maintained a separate in-memory index for data they are querying

Define "separate" but my old X11 compositor project neocomp I did something like that with a series of AOS arrays and bitfields that combined to make a sort of entity manager. Each index in the arrays was an entity, and each array held a data associated with a "type" of entity. An entity could hold multiple types that would combine to specify behavior. The bitfield existed to make it quick to query.

It waaay too complicated for what it was, but it was fun to code and worked well enough. I called it a "swiss" (because it was full of holes). It's still online on github (https://github.com/DelusionalLogic/NeoComp/blob/master/src/s...) even though I don't use it much anymore.

I love that eye tracking is built in this bodes well for my VR hypothesis:

The killer app for the VR platform is eye contact.

In my opinion Zoom should be investing heavily in this, and Zoom’s market is the one newcomers stand to gain.

The giant feature that Real Life™ has and teleconferencing lacks is the subtle baton passing, engagement reading, and tone modulation that is enabled by eye contact. A square of video just isn’t the same.

My corollary hypothesis for why this hasn’t been done yet is that the Mark Zuckerbergs and John Carmacks of the world are on the autism spectrum, they get by without this information, and therefore don’t realize how much the rest of us rely on it.
And thats how you know it's priced correctly: you find the spot right where you want to be. (RIP Donald Shoup, you sweet king)

I think you're mixing up the R&D X-planes (there are lots: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_X-planes) with the actual aircraft, which isn't gonna have its first flight for years.

USAF plane naming is... odd. F-35, F-117, B-1/B-2/B-21. Not much rhyme or reason. It's very possible 47 was picked for Trump's benefit. Silly, but possible.
One of the best episodes of any show I’ve ever seen.
LCDs have typically been considered inferior for home cinema usage. The only advantage of them is the price and that they have no colour wheel. DLA is a sort of middle ground that is technically an LCD but works more like DLP. None of this matters if your room isn't set up right or you're projecting in a not completely dark room, though.

I want to be rude.

The mix of "The same consideration applies to coordinate systems:" and "r u positioning urself..." in the same message is ridiculous to me and I can't take anyone seriously who speaks like this.

It's not illegal or immoral, but it is at the very least, demonstrably distracting from their own actual substantive point. Here we all are talking about that when they otherwise had a perfectly good observation to talk about.

Everyone is jumping on your use of the word "serious" as though you meant serious like cancer instead of just not texting ya bro bout where u at tonite, as though there are only two levels of formal and informal, the two extremes.

If this is so casual and we are txting, then why did they use punctuation and no emojis? Ending sentences with periods is verbal abuse now, so, I guess we're not txting after all? Pick a lane!
My theory is Wayland happened. As SPICE doesn't work that well through it. I would assume it's another case of a "niche" the Wayland protocol didn't account for, however.
Perhaps the app store's famously arbitrary and inscrutable review practices are having an effect. Doesn't explain the first-party gap though.

When your customers are nerds like you, I think engineers do fine.

I should qualify it somewhat though — I mean I was, for a spell, working on the ColorSync framework. So the "customer" was also an engineer using our API.

At the same time, when I worked on Preview initially I added features that I wanted and I think it dovetailed what users wanted. I am also a user I rationalized.

Further, many of the old timers like myself, were hung up on Tog and his Human Interface Guidelines. We would argue over lunch the Right way to handle UI for a specific feature, etc.

Jobs comes along and with Design at his side, and they decide that the address field in Safari should also be a progress bar (that appears to select the text as it loads?). Some poor engineer was told then to implement that. (I hated what I came to call one-off UI.)
And do they only watch science shows teaching STEM subjects? Or do they get to watch shows that have some emotional lessons as well? If so, what shows?

I think people are reacting because Bill Nye is not even remotely in the same category. It has a different kind of value, and frankly it’s not as important as the kind of value kids get from Bluey.

It’s very nice if kids learn science. Great even. But the most important things kid can get from TV shows (if anything, it’s okay to watch things for fun as well) is to learn social skills. Bluey has a lot of that, and it does it without being annoying about it like Daniel Tiger. It’s a good balance
Bear in mind that making solid fuel motors without a licence is also illegal in some countries (such as the UK).

I'll argue that "cleaning up" could be more feasible than you think in the near future. There is serious rethinking about just about everything in organic chemistry synthesis lately and an understanding that the industry has to change dramatically. The PFAS crisis has made it clear that we can't keep playing whac-a-mole and there's going to be a transition to 'nanotechnology' solutions such as patterning surfaces for

So I think 50 years from now we can have a much cleaner technology base overall.

Nope. Not interactive. It's a library you can use inside of PHP to implement a virtual screen. The readme has some pretty thorough details!
> Seriously, it all depends on whether u're counting the items themselves (1-based) or the spaces btwn them

I've never heard the distinction stated this way. It's clarifying.
The VRChat userbase and the Flight/Racing Sim userbases are both thriving and very, very, *very* interested in continuing to have very good VR options; and both of those userbases have the money to keep companies like BSB and Vive alive.

I feel like some parts of the HN crowd are oblivious to the advancements and continued, impressive work that happens in the VR Space, just because a VR game isn't (for the time being) going to sell a million copies, but it will very comfortably sell to a 100k userbase that want to spend that money.
Good luck with a Vue 2 + vuex + Vue Router project scaffolded with Vue CLI in 2016 which NPM is screaming at you is full of vulnerabilities. Or that React + React Router + Redux + Webpack 3 project from 2015.

In both cases you'd need to spend serious time moving to newer deps, rearchitecturing, probably moving to Vite, etc.
> the evolution of iPadOS has stagnated over the years.. truly native, modern iPad apps by the most popular web services essentially don’t exist anymore.. If not even Apple is putting in the time, care, and resources to make exceptional iPad apps, why should a third party do it.. Web apps may be common everywhere these days, but the Mac has a vibrant ecosystem of indie apps going for it, and the Vision Pro has better multitasking and proper integration with macOS. The iPad has neither.

I'd certainly hope any floor was ⏚'ed.
as your average PHP enjoyer, I agree with all of these complaints, but also will note

- you really need to train the team on PHP footguns, which are as bad as C foot guns

- finding PHP programmers is easy.

- your shits already written in PHP

- in the same way rolling your own stdlib in C is silly, leverage good PHP frameworks

ymmv but its not that bad. at least it keeps my day exciting.
I think "FaceyTime" might be one of the best examples of where they COULD have gone standard and instead, went gold.

It COULD have ended with a timeout and then Muffin being sulky and then cheering up, but it didn't.

It COULD have ended with "Mom's right, Dad's wrong," but it didn't.

It ended with gold.

(The use of the cousins to display other child activities is also brilliant, they can have "bratty Muffin" without forcing Bingo or Bluey to be "overly bratty".)
