Let me grant you your premise. Let's say that these are all actually terrorists with imminent plans to commit terror attacks.

This still is not how you do things.

For starters, if they are terrorists, then they should be locked up in our jails, not deported where they can continue to plan attacks.

But before we do that, shouldn't we have a trial? You know, the whole "innocent until proven guilty" thing? How do we know, for example, that this isn't just a case of mistaken identity? Or a zealous ICE agent? Heck, how do we know that this isn't some agent getting back at his girlfriend?

That's why we have courts and trials.
Yes, like a lot of tech companies they weren’t focused on profits until their CEO prioritized it over growth but from that point on they were profitable from 2018 on, with the aforementioned bad quarter when everyone cut spending at the start of the pandemic. The one-time deferred lawsuit payout in 2021 masked what otherwise would have been several hundreds of millions in profit.

The problem people had understanding them was that they weren’t Facebook or Google. The expectations of a money-printing machine were unrealistic but they had a solid middle-tier business with a large number of solid customers.
Is there a chance of a civil war, or are the royalists in the majority and will win anyway, so no one will dare?

> Canada isn’t some helpless third world with oil that they can exploit, Canada can and will retaliate

Canada can retaliate in a trade war, but if it is real annexation/invasion, Canada cannot effectively fight back. It would be a walk in the park for the US. We do not have the military resources, our popular is 1/10 the US, and our weapons are mostly supplied by the US, so they may not even work in a real war. And unlike with the Russian invasion of Ukraine, no one is coming to our aid.

Also the US would likely do it incrementally and start with a friendly province like Alberta, where a significant minority may even welcome it.

I don't get why anyone would care enough, neigh have the time to bother with creating/maintaining something like this. If you don't like it don't use it? I don't see why anyone would be forced into it. (Not a manjaro user, never was, just a bystander but longtime linux user).

In all fairness, I don't think the goal is to hide that completely, just to mask the accent to some degree in order to improve intelligibility for speakers from different accent regions.
> Not necessarily, because you might consider it acceptable for the implicit conversion to change the memory layout in this sense.

Does the actual data layout impact the observation?

If you have A, something that accepts B, and you consider it implicitly possible for an A to be a B with either no change or an implicit change... that seems to amount to considering As to be Bs when necessary.
This is fine for online meetings but for in-person meetings, it is a minefield of interpersonal relationship risks if not used discreetly. Can't predict how the other party reacts.

I have had a mix of colleagues with diverse backgrounds, none of them were particularly challenging to understand except for one native chinese speaker. In the beginning, we have indirectly asked for clarifications but stopped doing that after someone candidly mentioned that there's risk of offending the other person. Now we just send meeting minutes to avoid misunderstandings.

That's only the first step. Second step after winning your love, affection and devotion is to manipulate and everyone will defend it because it is their significant other. They will share pillow-talk and deepest darkest secrets with it. Then there is step three.
In what sense of the word "basically" are the FSD and robotaxis "basically" here? Tesla FSD is a level 2 autonomic system that requires constant supervision, robotaxis would require level 4/5 autonomy. That's not even close to becoming reality.
JavaScript, HTML, and CSS have changed a lot since 2012.

I think the problem is folks tend to think like engineers with all their widgets (e.g desktop development in the browser). Even Microsoft is going full TypeScript mode.

Web development is DESIGN first. Think of it like a design project and suddenly the entire workflow changes.

The CSS spec today makes all this stuff super easy people just don’t spend the time actually learning.

In my opinion the Laravel and Rails developers get this right.
Yeah! JEPA seems awesome. Do you mind sharing what other self-supervised methods work better than JEPA?
Isn't the cost of the "luxury" item that feels like it's older version closer to what the older item cost back then after accounting for inflation?

For example: many often lament washers and dryers of yesteryear, but those appliances cost ~$3000 each after inflation in their respective time periods. Even Speed Queen, which is made in the USA and often touted as being high-quality, doesn't cost as much.
I love this project! The UI feels so delightful and well thought out. I guess I found another weekend (multi-week?) activity.

If you're looking for hackathon projects, the E-ink ecosystem is well developed enough that they're pretty easy to program against and Claude/the AIs can pick up the API surface. Plus, people generally don't know what they're looking at -- you have to say "kindle-style screen" -- but people (me? but also guests) do seem to prefer having a e-ink screen in the living room over a backlit display because it's so much less intrusive.

FWIW, E-ink [0] AND pomdoros [1] are each a whole thing of mine.

Having an active measles outbreak is a pretty routine occurrence.

France, Germany and Greece are included not just the Eastern countries.

https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC11588923/

While it’s easy to blame anti-vaxxers, a large contributor are people who saw waning immunity and immigrants from countries with poor immunization rates.

Even with 100% immunization youll still have outbreaks occasionally as people come in and out and the vaccine just doesn’t “take” in some small percentage.
If they are doing this to non-citizens, it is a matter of time until they start doing it to citizens as well. Soon it will be stripping naturalized citizenship (which they have floated already). After that, they will just lock up native born citizens for frivolous reasons.

Good old days - when the software was a box full of floppy disks or CDs which you buy at a store and bring them home and modify registry settings etc.

Software is no longer a product like a chair and table which you can just buy and move it from the store to your home. It is more like a managed service like a utility connection. It is available for use only as long as the vendor allows it. You buy a subscription and play nice. The buyer might also not have the admin user privileges on the software they bought with their money.

The same might happen to cars and all other smart devices as well. Cars might always be connected to the car company, which might have some remote control over the car. Phones are already like this. It is a matter of time, all your home appliances are partly controlled by the companies who sold them.

The thing is "knowledge of English" is not really like "knowledge of astronomy".

> If I were a native speaker? Then for sure, by definition I could not have a wrong accent

On an everyday basis I read/write/speak/listen to more English than my native language. Let's say Bob is born and brought up in a region where English is the dominant language, but not every English speaker would understand Bob flawlessly.

Now, why is my semi-understandable accent less legitimate than Bob's semi-understandable accent, just because Bob is a native speaker?

> Surely you understand the difference between wanting to hire superstars but then adjusting your targets downward based on what salaries you can offer versus wanting to pay as little as possible for call center agents and then adjusting your targets upward based on what you can get away with.

You should pick what your budget and preferences agree with. No need to be judgemental.
I love this! I’ve been playing around with browser extensions to achieve this, and it always seems to get lost in the clutter of my busy workspace. A physical timer for this is a brilliant idea.

Another thing I’ve been contemplating is a “do not disturb” signpost on my desk when in focus time; might be that this timer could also double as that.
Not only does Apple frown upon that, they just silently drop emails that are sent from a server without PTR records. Yes, that includes their own servers. Yes, sending email from iCloud to iCloud is silently dropped if they decide you get assigned an outgoing server without PTR. The absolute amateurism just blows my mind.

Yikes. If you want to fork a project, rather than contribute, bring better game.
It's easy to hate on the ways web development goes wrong, but I think it's really cool that our ecosystem has so many options for people to get started. New libraries, and thus new ways of doing things, push old established practices to become better. And it would be very ambitious to implement every capacity all by yourself (whether as a company or as a framework).

Having said that, I do think there's a false assumption that if you create a potluck of a technology stack, you've saved a lot of time. Every different technology you introduce adds a permutation, resulting in an exponentially growing way for things to go wrong. So in my opinion, if you've proven your MVP the next step is to find what technologies you could truly trust and potentially control long term (which often equates to powerful technologies with very small API surfaces), and then roll up your sleeves and build the rest of the integration stuff yourself. Specificity > power, when it comes to maintainable technology.

Every case will be different of course, but this approach is what worked well in my experience.
> The reality of building web apps in 2025 is that it's a bit like assembling IKEA furniture

I don’t understand the analogy.

If the desire is to have a complete pre-built product (fully assembled furniture), then you’re not building but instead buying someone else’s SaaS offering.
I believe most android smartphones can actually do it: I often rely on having my phone connected to wifi and also being an AP at the same time (exactly to make up for the absence of simple direct connection between my devices, using adb and some other software you can "emulate" what apple is doing with AWDL, this wifi-aware thing looks like an answer to some of my problems). Sample size is around 5 but from different brands and price ranges so I'm pretty sure it's on basically all devices.
Be glad you receive a report. Apple just silently drops the email.
Maybe the guy is pretty good at basketball and sincerely thinks he’s going to be the best player in the world next year? That would make his arms and legs awfully valuable.

Musk’s xAI is in a similar place. It’s an also-ran in a crowded space and it’s not making any money while spending billions. But the founder certainly has great faith in it. Is $80B the right value to assign to that faith? Who knows.
This is awesome. Does anyone know if it'll possible to integrate it with tools like SQLX (Rust's pseudo-ORM) to get type hinting when writing in-like SQL code within Rust, or just have it work when I'm writing SQL within a simple Python script? That would truly be next-gen.
Seems like for his particular example, Karpathy hasn't heard of Kirimase.

I’m really not sure what the use case of Manjaro is.

Arch exists for good reason, and if you’re not comfortable with the complexity of setup just use another distro?

Fedora, Mint and Ubuntu both exist if you want a simpler installer. I’ve started using Bazzite on more machines too and couldn’t be happier with the results.

Genuinely I think most people just confuse distro with desktop environment. If you don’t actually need arch just go with another simpler distro and set up the DE you need.

You're right. You're not a statistician. My point was against yours. The consensus by experts in myltiple fields, who study specifically this, is that literacy in Kerela is exceptionally high. That is one study among many, one that only confirms what they way they already know.
Third world countries unironically have bigger militaries than Canada.

Here is a very good podcast on the topic: Scam, Inc.

https://www.economist.com/audio/podcasts/scam-inc

Some highlights

- There are estimated to be 500,000 people working globally as scammers

- It is mostly Chinese Triad led industry

- It is geopolitical: for the government of China it is ok, even desirable, that Americans get scammed

- $1T figure must be too high, as criminal experts estimate the whole global industry to be $200B - $500B
They are not terrorists. They are public supporters.

When you are welcomed at someone's house, you don't start going around by lecturing them on how to run their house.

They are free to support Hamas, just not in the US as students.
>This project provides a toolchain for Postgres development,

I'm a little bit confused about what "Postgres development" is in this context. Is this for people writing stored procedures in Postgres? Or people writing other kinds of large and complex queries that merit language server support?

I'm just kind of curious what uses cases are out there for something like this.
Well they have completely redefined what Christianity is, so in a way it doesn't surprise me that they need/use this redefined religion to provide "spiritual" comfort while performing these acts.

Yes the cynicism is there, but the "praying" is the means by which the subject performing the acts is able to feel authentic while performing them.

Also they're all performing for each other, too.
I see it not as revenge but as actions of a deeply broken system. Which broke well before the last elections.

We cannot just wish the current administration away. It is the result of the fact that the US system is seen as broken by many outside of coastal elites. And that they do not like being trodden on in the names of covid, climate or equity.

The sooner the opponents of the current administration start working on issues that matter to people they lost (instead of going further left and screaming louder), the less damage Trump can inflict. My 2c.
I count 3 lines. And that is only if everything works and you have conda etc installed already
The wisdom contained in that whole "first they came for the communists, and I said nothing" isn't that people failed to stand up for the popular people.

Non-citizens have 1st Amendment rights in the United States. They also have Due Process rights. People, even non-citizens, are absolutely allowed to have and share legitimately abhorrent views on any topic they want.
> Have you ever heard anything said by the current US president? It's just incoherent rambling.

Which is ironic considering all we heard from MAGA/Fox for the last 4 years is that Biden was incoherent and senile.
They are asking for violence against their enemies. Some of the poorest people I know are huge Trump supporters.

So long as he hurts the right people, they love him.

It's because they blame their current status on "the other". Why can't they get a job? Because a foreigner "stole" it. Why is government aid failing to keep up? Because the bad people that don't deserve it are draining their deserved benefit.

But further, their religious texts say times will get tough before their Messiah comes back, so if Trump makes them personally suffer "well, hopefully Jesus will be back soon".
I suggest it would be helpful if the README's intro expanded a little more on the project's scope. "for postgres" is a bit vague, and "focusing on developer experience and reliable SQL tooling." doesn't tell me much about what it actually does.

If I was coming to this project for the first time I think the questions I'd immediately like the answers to are:

- What language is this language server for? Is it just for SQL proper, or for PL/pgSQL, or writing C extensions, or what?

- What makes it PostgreSQL-specific? Is it just that it follows PostgreSQL's dialect of SQL?

- Does it expect to be told about your database's schema? And if so, do you tell it by giving it a database connection, or letting it see files defining the schema, or what?
Within a couple of years we are going to start seeing AI generated and fully customized stacks. As in, database built specifically for your application and etc. You basically show inputs and you have a middle layer for debugging tools. At least that’s how I envision it.
Can you run the country too?
Arch has a shell based installer, why use Manjaro over that?
What he sees is useless complexity. What he is proposing is more complexity wrapping all that. That's not the way.
I wouldn't worry about that. Alberta had a pretty close election, and if their current premier Danielle Smith even hinted at the proposition of joining the US she would never win another election again. Not to mention that the federal government of Canada would also have to be on board for a province to seperate.
Exactly. Once due process is removed from non-citizens, they can arrest whoever they want, claim they are non-citizens, then prevent them the due process to prove otherwise.
> They are free to support Hamas, just not in the US as students.

They absolutely are free to support Hamas (with words and assembly, not with financing). The 1st Amendment has no exemption for "except if it's pro-bad-guy" nor for "except if you're a student" nor for "except if you're not a US citizen."

> When you are welcomed at someone's house, you don't start going around by lecturing them on how to run their house.

We're not talking about a guest in a house. We're talking about a person in the US's jurisdiction. Our Constitution explicitly protects their right to do this.

The 1st Amendment's Free Speech protection is not limited to citizens, nor is the 5th Amendment's Due Process protection. The 14th Amendment's Equal Protection Clause makes that totally unambiguous: if you are within US jurisdiction, you have Constitutional rights.
I'm concerned about this as well. If this keeps progressing, we could see a monoculture develop among elite institutions and media where the shots are being called by three letter agencies. We could get to a place where federal agencies are working directly with social media companies to coordinate censorship of dissent and set speech guidelines. If they don't oblige they'll be threatened with arbitrary enforcement and getting dragged out in front of Congress.

Eventually there could be an entire political capture of these social media companies, universities, journalists, NGOS etc where 90%+ of its employees subscribe to one political party .

But it gets even worse. If this continues we could see activist judges try to throw political rivals in jail. They would even change the law in order to try to get them to go to prison, combining misdemeanors into felonies.

And this says nothing about the rhetoric. By casting political opponents as villains, this invites assassination attempts and general lawlessness to intimidate people perceived as not falling in line. By this point the media will be complicit so there will be no investigation into these activities. Even a failed assassination attempt would be at most a few day story with no reporting on motive or coordination.

I too am very concerned about all of this.
Web development is super simple as long you use a mature stack.
Just use HTML/Server side rendered templates, CSS and Vanilla JS. Then you need a mature backend framework, Spring Boot, Rails, Django and then you need a database, SQLite, MySQL or PostgreSQL.

With this, you can create powerful web applications, with minimal dependencies and a working back button for browsers.
Is it spectacular enough to take a nap in the back seat? OTOH would you worry about falling asleep in a Waymo after a night out?
Irrelevant. You can still use the OS and run any code you want.
What does that have to do with anything? I'm speaking about experience of deploying existing gl.inet devices, marketed as "fully open source" with OpenWrt being front-and-center in marketing, as well as being promoted on the OpenWrt wiki.

That someone from the community has made OpenWrt run fine on Ubiquiti gear has nothing to do with my comment and is not indicative of anything (if anything perhaps supporting the notion that glinet should be able to do better).

> Your concern is entirely unwarranted and -if I might be a little uncharitable- seems to come from a position of ignorance (whether actual or feigned, I cannot tell).

Yeah, that's quite uncharitable. Did you read the last line of the comment you replied to?

Speaking of ignorance... How many new embedded devices have you personally ported OpenWrt (or any Linux dist for that matter) to? How many glinet devices do you have experience deploying self-compiled builds to? How much time have you spent digging through their sources and patches?
