> The bigger problem is people who are judgment proof and don’t mind spending some time in jail. They just drive drunk over and over and don’t care if their car (which is often a relative’s) gets impounded. They have no valid licence and no insurance. Short of permanent incarceration, there isn’t much they can be done about such people.

Yep, when you get down to this root fact, it's nearly impossibly to _actually_ stop someone from driving a car. If you make insurance mandatory, they will still not buy insurance. If you revoke their license, they will keep driving without it. If you fine them, they just won't pay. If they go to jail for it, they'll resume driving when they get out.
This game achieves its smoothness by synchronizing to the video refresh. That's not a particularly challenging thing to do, but it wasn't a viable option for commercial games back in the day due to uncertainty of how to do it properly across the different Apple II models.

Apple added VBL polling with the IIe in 1983, and then broke it a year later with the IIc. And an unfortunate typo in the IIc technical reference manual meant that developers couldn't figure out how to do it properly.

The only official, cross-platform way to do it was through the mouse firmware, but most users didn't have the mouse hardware installed.

This game uses the mouse firmware, if available (II+ w/ mouse card, IIc, IIgs), to generate VBL interrupts. On the IIe without a mouse card, it polls for VBL.

By the way, if you're running this game on the Virtual ][ emulator for MacOS, be sure to disable the mouse card. Its emulated mouse card only generates VBL interrupts at 30 Hz, so the game runs at half speed.
I think the demands on concurrency are relatively basic. It's nice to have something a bit more robust than raw pthreads, but the main thing that makes or breaks a crawler is access to a robust HTTP client library and HTML parser, solid I/O performance, that sort of thing. Because the problem domain looks the way it looks, concurrency is one of the easier parts.

How would it make people dumber? Students provably forgets 90%+ of what they learn, and education is massively inefficient today, which can also provably be improved by virtual tutors (see Bloom's two sigma problem). Your reaction seems knee jerk instead of thinking through this from first principles. Something like this is likely to happen whether you like it or not.
Those dog breeds differ by like a factor of 10 in size, way more than humans basically in any aspect.

People are really enamored of focusing white-hot rage or glowing adulation on one guy. And for USians, it's the POTUS and his executive branch. It's not difficult to just send the same focus on just 9 dudes and dudettes in black robes, or just a majority of them, or a few choice villains in Congress, and just blame them for all the ills in society and our family's poor life choices and all that's wrong in the world today that may have started about 4 years ago so that we don't need to take accountability right here in the Old Therebefore, the distant past or present. So I invite you to downvote this comment to -3 like the parent.

I'm tired of blaming people far away and quite distant from us for stuff. At a National Security Level, none [hopefully] of us know what's really going on and none of us can actually DO anything about it, except kvetch and moan and whine into our keyboards. Surely all you spycraft fans could admit that there may be a 7-layer burrito of fake-outs and misdirection and Fog of War involved with a fuckin' Signal chat that got a scoop for a single news outlet? We're literally on social media discussing a... single report... about a thread on social media that was seen by one too many people. Since MySpace was founded, the lamestream media reporters have made entire careers out of digging stuff out of someone's profile or their friends posts and splaying it out in a Film At Eleven. But is there anything new under the Sun?

I personally admire our President [although he's got some unattractive personal traits] and I love the administration's progress since his first election, but it's all such big-picture stuff that really affects you and me so little, in the here and now. What matters much more is what's going on next door, in my home parish, in my municipality, and then there's diocese and county and state all above that. What also matters is the Finger of God, his angels and his saints, and their participation in what's going on, when "spiritual autists" need to hold men accountable and attack and blame humans--your sisters and brothers--for events and occurrences which are surely beyond human power to control or even correctly perceive. You believe that "knowledge is power" so is your knowledge absolute? Does your knowledge confer absolute power to know and act? Is there no higher knowledge or wider justice than the knowledge wielded by your philosophy, Horatio?

Name-calling, finding fault, spreading rumors and exposing scandalous gossip. When you get involved the Politics Reality Show and the Lamestream Media, that is your currency in trade. The media rakes muck and the politicians wallow in it and fling it back at them in the same briefing room, but it sullies not their impeccable blonde tresses nor designer Prada soles that you picked up in the 90210.
I was actually talking to someone the other day who was building an MCP for Continue that could call the Elixir type checker / compiler (which I've heard is quite powerful). I'll need to find this and share—they were saying it made for a really powerful edit -> check -> rewrite loop in Agent mode

With adherence to the drug regimen the current prognosis is even better than that at 75 years of life expectancy. The problem is adherence to the regimen is hard and lack of adherence means you’re a potential spreader again. That being said I believe Botswana has 90%+ of its hiv positive population on ART drugs.

I feel you on the macros, I have wanted them too, but I respect the language creator's commitment to minimalism, and I don't feel that e.g. JSON decoders are too much effort. It seems the language is headed down the route of code generators rather than macros, which seems like a reasonable tradeoff to me. [2]

We have dedicated field separator characters :-/

And all kinds of other weirdness, right in ascii. Vertical tabs, LOL. Put those in filenames on someone else's computer if you want to fuck with them. Linux and its common file systems are terrifyingly permissive in the character set they allow for file names.

Nobody uses any of that stuff, though.
Most of warhead verification is actually verifying a given weapon IS a real weapon (without giving away its internal design, which is the hard part), not that something is not a weapon because generally you're trying to keep an account of how many/where warheads are. Verifying a given missile isn't nuclear tipped is largely a non-issue at least in the current arms control regimes.

This method has no real way to identify materials, which is what you really need for warhead verification. It would be easily fooled by replacing a warhead with a dummy source, which is a big no-no because now there is a potential hole in the bookkeeping. Weapons grade material isn't actually that radioactive anyway; warheads aren't inert but measuring radiation from them is fairly challenging. Probably not hot enough to see easily with this laser approach, though I'm only speculating on that.
Yeah have had similar struggles with social security numbers.

Both the education and indie versions are full versions. The educational version can only be licensed for a year and can only be relicensed a set number of times. The indie version is restricted solely based on income. If the licensee (studio or individual) makes <= 100000 USD per year, then they can use the indie version. There may be slightly different file formats for each.
> The thing that makes any art valuable to me is that it is a human communication. Art made by a machine is far less valuable because, by definition, it isn't a human communication.

What is "human communication"? To me that is something that communicates a concept that resonates to a human. It doesn't mean that a human had to create it. For instance, an elaborate bird nest could be art because it communicates things like beauty, symmetry, function, etc.
> If they break the law and drive anyway, put them in jail.

They are going to drive anyway, because in most of the USA, you need a car to get basically anywhere, including to work. So now instead of just being a bad driver, they're also unemployed and sitting in jail, which taxpayers are paying for. There are people with dozens of DUIs, totally uninsurable, their licenses pretty much permanently revoked, and they still drive every day.
Gun is a good thing, but way more important is organization. I mean organization like "when order came everyone stands up and fights no slackers".

Even 10 organized people with no weapons are _way_ more dangerous than one armed person. That's why all autocratic regimes firstly jail/kill organizers (right now it's Turkey). Just having eyes in 10 different places is more important.

As Jefferson really liked (proposed by Franklin): "Rebellion against tyrants is obedience to God."

Look at the current AI LLM boom? The people responsible for that technology is alive today, you can talk to them!

The big challenge with the cache interface atm is not using Redis (personally, I love Redis). It's that this interface is far from being a straightforward GET/SET/DELETE. Rather, you need to learn the default implementation and all its nuances (for different payload types), and duplicate/transform all the logic.

The division of labor between what the framework does and what the platform developers (or any other developer working on a high-scale/high-availability deployment) need to do, has to be fixed. If this happens - plus better docs - you should be able to "just use" Redis.
I'm genuinely shocked at how "tort reform" (read: corporations trying to reduce liability as much as possible) propaganda has permeated the general consciousness.

- Liebeck initially only requested McDonald's cover the medical fees from going into shock and having 3rd degree burns over her lower body (including genitalia), which McDonald's refused and only offered $800.

- McDonald's had received hundreds of reports of the coffee scalding people.

- Liebeck didn't get the multi-million dollar payout because the judge reduced it 640k, trebled the compensatory damages, which is incredibly normal for punitives.
Replit (YC W18) Is Hiring Engineers to Automate Coding
If capabilities (Capture Catching) proves to be very useful (and really solves the problems it claims to be able to solve) then it's likely that Java will also implement it, no? So... in about 8-15 years?
It’s easy to paint with broad strokes, but sweeping generalizations rarely capture the full picture. Not all of us “gatekeep” or overprescribe, we follow evidence-based guidelines and clinical judgment. When a patient presents with nonspecific fatigue and unintended weight loss, for instance, ordering a CBC, CMP, TSH, and A1C isn’t "unnecessary" it’s standard of care to rule out anemia, metabolic derangements, thyroid dysfunction, or early diabetes. That’s not about revenue.. it’s about ruling out high-risk pathology before it escalates.

As for the AMA, it’s far from perfect, but it doesn’t define the ethos of every practicing clinician. Many of us—regardless of where we trained—are here because we care deeply about patient outcomes, not profit. I don’t dismiss international medical graduates; I’ve worked alongside phenomenal ones. What matters to me isn’t where someone studied, but how they think, how they treat, and whether they practice medicine with integrity.

Healthcare needs reform, no doubt—but assuming every U.S. physician is complicit in systemic issues is reductive. Most of us are doing the best we can within a deeply flawed system.

I really hope this is a troll. If not it at least showcases the attitude that’s wrong with much of the American medical system.

> Without those standards, the profession would lose its weight, its dignity. If becoming a doctor were simply a matter of competence and compassion, we’d all be wearing name tags and making $60,000 a year.

Ah yes, the American dignity of a fat paycheck based on gate keeping.

> Let’s not pretend this work is trivial, either. Just last week I diagnosed a UTI, prescribed a $4 antibiotic, and quite literally saved someone’s life — that’s a bargain at $500.

Let’s be fair, a nurse can do that too. Really ChatGPT probably could do that now. ChatGPT deserves a McLauren now!

Actually Alexander Fleming, Howard Florey, and Ernst Chain deserve more credit for discovering and then mass producing the first antibiotic penicillin. Which btw they didn’t patent because they believed it should help people.
But once you're in the US, and then you eventually have to leave which means you see officials ... trust level 0 means trust level 0.

Let's put this another way as an extreme. If this relationship existed for somewhere like Myanmar, Yemen or Turkmenistan it doesn't mean you can trust your safety once you're in the country.

Many Americans refuse to travel to Mexico on this premise. This is what I'm talking about. The US is now on that list.

Retro enthusiast solution in this case is a 3d printed can you attach to your lens and its on you to revert and grade the color in lightroom. Better hope the camera is perfectly aligned to the negative that is perfectly flat and you have a lens that can focus a flat field free of distortions. It is a far cry to the engineering that went into these pro lab scanners. Just the color science alone people struggle to replicate, resolution and sharpness throughout the frame as well, speed of handling for lab setting is second to none. People still pay a premium for these scans on these particular machines.

Kodachrome homebrew efforts don’t get close either. The process is too bespoke and reliant on instruments that no longer exist. Even proper c41 chemistry is down to just when the full kodak kit is in stock and not backordered by desperate developers: those instagram brands kit contains blix and are inferior as a result to a separate bleach and fix kit. Fuji press kit the old alternative is hard or impossible to find.

And no one is making new cameras. Only fixing old ones and only popular models able to be fixed and worth the time creating a secondary market of parts for (so basically Leica and pay for that or be relatively SOL to varying degrees for most else).

The biggest issue is this stuff was created when film was a global industry. tens of thousands of engineers were working on every step of the process for decades. That is gone now. All that old knowledge and learnings mostly gone because these companies kept poor records and destroyed old obsolete notes and material. Not just how the camera works but how to manufacture it and everything else at scale or at least in a way that it is actually profitable. And perhaps it could never become profitable without efficiencies brought on by scale and massive investment in manufacturing. And it would actually be forever be lost once all this equipment we still have falls apart.
There are lots of 8-bit mostly-ASCII character sets that assign printable glyphs to some or all of the codepoints that ASCII assigns to control characters. TeX defined one, and the IBM PC's "code page 437" defined another.
Are you suggesting that the quality of treatment depends on the conveyance the doctor used to get to work? Have you even been to France, to dig into just one example?

When I first started, installing packages which required compiling native code on either my work Windows machine and the old Unix servers was not easy.

So I largely stuck to the Python standard library where I could, and most of the operations I had at the time did not require data analysis on a server, that was mostly done in a database. Often the job was validating and transforming the data to then insert it into a database.

As the Python packaging ecosystem matured and I found I could easily use Pandas everywhere it just wasn't my first thing I'd reach to. And occasionally it'd be very helpful to iterate through them with the csv module, only taking a few MBs of memory, vs. loading the entire dataset into memory with Pandas.
Just saying, even though some of the work that people show is quite remarkable, lots of times it's only a small fraction of their accomplishments or capabilities.
Looking at how their revenue from membership dropped and are now relying on royalties, they are screwing themselves too. If they had more doctors, they wouldn’t have to rely on royalties.
Interesting and definitely something platforms must take into consideration.

Now back to the post, implementing custom cache is not something Netlify is strongly complaining about. They are mostly asking for some documentation with rather stable APIs. Other Frameworks seems to provide that.
Exactly. I think the people who oppose this do it for sentimental reasons. Either because they want the prestige of a place like Stanford on their resume, or they enjoyed the social milieu. A social network of similarly ambitious people is also arguably more important than the actual knowledge. The knowledge is already available for free online, and like Bryan Caplan points out: at many universities you can just go and sit in class, but nobody does it because what you actually want is the credentials, not the knowledge.
I would think of MCP as a "plugin" for AI.

Right now your typical interaction in chat is limited with some exceptions of out of box tooling that most current platforms provide: file attachment, web search, etc.

MCP is a way to extend this toolbox, but the cooler thing is AI will be able to determine _at inference time_ what tools to use to fulfill the user's prompt.

Hope this helped!
So an attacker should sign their malicious webp or jpeg files beforehand? That doesn’t help at all.

No, I agree very much with parent here. I think compile time safety and rust fanatism has been oversold, but let’s face it this is the perfect use case, a match made in heaven.

Decoding in C/C++ has a Dunning Kruger deceitful appeal. People think they can do it, but time and time again, we find critical holes, even when written by 10x wizard Nobel laureate engineers.

At the same time, decoding needs to be crazy performant. So, this is the moment to shine for languages like Rust. I am 100% in support of this.
Is this a serious post? I can't tell.

> Meanwhile, patients complain that a 15-minute consultation in the U.S. costs $300. You’re not paying for the time — you’re paying for the privilege of certainty, of safety, of knowing your doctor passed through the most rigorous, exclusive system in the world.

> But thanks to the AMA, we’ve maintained the sanctity of the white coat. We’ve ensured that when a patient walks into an American clinic, they know they’re not seeing someone who just slipped through the cracks. They’re seeing someone who’s been tested, refined, and yes — financially punished enough to demand respect.

Nonsense. Then how do you explain why so many people complain about having visits that yield no diagnosis, no treatment plan, or outright gaslighting by physicians? All the publications in recent times of misdiagnosis and malpractice? The stories on this here on HN and the media have been countless; including my own experience where probably 9 out of 10 visits for me are effectively worthless, especially if they're within a specialty (neurology for example).

I think Copilot plays an important role in the world of code assistants, and it's great that they've implemented Agent mode as well.

We'd actually love for them to take part in the standard we're building here—the more people build custom assistants together, the stronger the ecosystem can grow!

If I were to share any one reason why we continue to build Continue when there are so many other coding assistants, it really comes down to one word: choice. We hope to live in a world where developers can build custom prompts, rules, tools, etc. just like we currently build our own bash profiles, Vim shortcuts, and other personal or internal company tools. Lots of room and lots of space for many products, but we want to lead the way on allowing developer choice over models, prompts, and much, much more
