I think where our opinions differ is what boundaries this logic should cross. When I'm in Bash-land, I'm happy that my Bash-isms use the rest of what's available in the Bash env. When I'm in Node, likewise, as this is an expected and desirable outcome. Where this doesn't sit right with me is when a Node-land script crosses this boundary and starts murking around with things from a different domain.

In general, I would want everything to work by the principle of least surprise, so Node stuff interacts with Node dependencies, Python does Python things, Bash does Bash env, etc. If I need one to interact with the other, I want to be explicit about it, not have some spooky action at a distance.
I think it's somewhat funny that two of the images in this blog post, the two signs, and the miner, are commonly used to mock faux intellectualism and a feeling of moral superiority.

Meh, you aren’t seeing it. You are likely noticing a fringe view of a minority of people being greatly magnified through coordinated and uncoordinated social media campaigns and broad sweeping statements intended to covey that a totality of people (ie “a country”) hold a given view.

Now, if we framed it not as an “expropriation of a company” but a “100% tax on billionaires profiting from the work of the creative class” then the numbers would get real very quick.

There's definitely a cultural component to "modern taste". South Asian cultures have a preference for warm tones and many vibrant colors. East Asian cultures from developing and developed countries these days have lots of cool tones and monotone aesthetics. While I found the article a bit short on the "why", I do agree that the West has had a philosophical disdain for color from the Industrial era.
Yeah. Unless it's advertised as "food grade" and has a specific "Cobalt chloride free" I would def. not put it in food -

On one hand, it feels like this question is a lot more relevant than ever. It's easier to ignore politics when each side doesn't see the other as an existential threat to their way of life.

Like it would be easy not to ask someone's religion when there isn't a 35% chance they're going to say "extremist martyr".

But I don't ask this question if I don't think I know the answer already, and I only ask it with people I think I can have a conversation with.

With the inevitable consequence being many Ukrainian lives being saved.

Do you somehow think that less Ukrainians would die without our support?
Ask HN: Go libraries for managing Docker container pools and executing commands?
I’m developing a system in Go that maintains a fixed pool of Docker containers (e.g., 10) running a specific image (like ‘node’), where each container remains alive (using a command like tail -f) to be ready for executing arbitrary commands via docker exec. The system tracks the workload of each container, distributes commands to the least loaded one, and monitors container health to automatically restart or replace unhealthy instances.

I’m aware of the official Docker Go SDK (github.com/docker/docker/client) for managing containers, but I’m curious if there are any higher-level tools or libraries in Go that provide additional support for scheduling, load balancing, or enhanced health monitoring of containers in such a setup. Has anyone built or used libraries that streamline this kind of container orchestration and command execution?

Any insights, recommendations, or experiences would be greatly appreciated!
I think it's ok to be hypocritical and have friends with different vastly political beliefs, in the end relationships; friendships, lovers, etc are not usually an outcome of rational behavior, so I don't mind having friends who are politically different because it's the unconscious connection that brought us together.

As long as there's respect that's what matters.
One thing I definitely don't do anymore is discuss politics with any friends or family ONLINE.

It's just not worth it. Publish or tweet something if you have something to say and want to reach a lot of people. Talking to ONE person and risking your relationship has a lousy cost/benefit ratio.
I guess you could say the comment is conflating the mod team and the community.

I think the community can be pretty susceptible to groupthink and hyper-conformity, and there are tons of legitimate criticisms around that. But it's true that usually the mod team won't suffer directly from that, from what I've seen.

`await-tree` seems to be able to output to JSON. As long as all keys are unique, it should be straightforward to convert it into the Collapsed Stack Format most flame graph tools natively ingest.

Not to get too political, but the US is built on expropriation. From Indigenous peoples, the British, Mexicans, and a variety of other folks. It's baked into laws and policies like eminent domain and civil asset forfeiture. The biggest issue is who is being targetted and why. Heck, even taxation is a form of expropriation. This is also not unique to the US - the political aspect is how and why expropriation happens.
Yes, that's what it is, just in case NYT locks the article behind a paywall.
Option 3: treat your students like adults as much as possible and be flexible with everyone about how they complete the class as long as they demonstrate that they've done sufficient work and have sufficient mastery of the material. Then you don't need to play arbiter about whether having a child in the hospital is a better excuse than having their backpack stolen, and you don't unfairly favor squeaky wheels over meeker students.

Ghiradelli claims their dark chocolate has 20mg per oz and their milk chocolate has 6 mg per ounce. [1]

That would mean eating a standard 3.5oz/100g chocolate bar would have 70mg of caffeine for dark, or 21mg for milk.

While 3.5oz is a lot in a sitting, 70mg is equivalent to a smallish cup of coffee.

Most of this essay is either about wholinator2's comment (for some reason?), or your thoughts on grading and why you're qualified to have those thoughts. Anyways.

>Please don't confuse expertise and experience with condescension

I'm not. Both of your comments are patronizing. You're sprinkling in rhetorical questions implying I can't read the comment I replied to, over-emphasizing parts of your sentences as if I'm a middle-schooler who is first encountering your fancy words, or claiming that I'm being emotional while you're just a beacon of logic.

I've had many experts explain stuff to me without doing any of that. I'm not confused. I even agree with a lot of the stuff you're saying about teachers! But your tone in these comments leaves a lot to be desired.

>But nobody - including you - is actually holy

Obviously. It's a saying, I wasn't being literal.

>Biggest issue aside from ascribing emotion to where there's none, that is, which is a common theme in this thread

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but if you're writing multiple thousands of words on a topic on a semi-obscure technology forum, in response to a total of like 8 sentences from random people you've never met, you've got some emotions and passion involved. Which is totally fine! Humans aren't meant to be completely devoid of emotion.

Maps are to be read. If you want a subway map to frame for your apartment, then the current/old one looks nice, but the new one is just easier to read - particularly in a moving subway car, through a dirty pane, and from 3 feet away. Especially in the age of smartphones, if you're doing navigation on a train (or station) you likely don't have a phone or are already lost, the map should be optimized to be easy to read in either scenario.
On the one hand, I think it's a bit unfair that this comment is currently downvoted as it's discussing moderation on a topic about moderation, so very much on-topic in this particular submission.

On the other hand, I think it needs to be more specific in order to be valuable feedback. Which dissenting opinions? Can you provide specific examples of comments you think got unreasonably flagged?

There's been an uptick in political posts which are off-topic per the guidelines, so an uptick in the absolute number of flagged submissions would just mean the community is properly enforcing the guidelines, which is good. However, as a consequence of that uptick in political submissions and flagging, there's also an uptick in the number of users complaining a post is unjustly flagged, because they incorrectly conflate enforcing the guidelines with political opinion, and that is not good.

I think a lot of users are tired of this back and forth, so my guess is they are reading between the lines of what you said (since you didn't provide specifics) and filling in the blank with what _they_ think you mean about undeserved flagging, with the topic of politics being top of mind at the moment. This shows that being specific helps both by providing actionable feedback while also increasing clarity, which is your responsibility as a communicator.

That's not a moderation issue. You can post that opinion, and people will disagree with it, post responses to it, and downvote it. It will not be flagged out of existence, unless it's also violating site policy in other ways.
Tom what was your company in YC W09? And how did it go?

It’s been a while since I’ve seen Tombstone (I think I’ll watch this evening in tribute), but even with that I have the exact tonality of all the quotes listed here replaying perfectly in my head.

Genius performance.
Politics aren’t the outcome of rational behavior either. The strongest belief systems that people have are instilled in them at a young age. Also, people can change.
I get the sentiment but guess I disagree, esp in the modern age with the increased polarization painting opposing sides as evil daily
The drained-color thing is exclusive to a certain type of TV/movie drama, and then also a serious technical problem involving HDR device-side (which is a whole other story).

But if you watch any comedy, or reality show, or plenty of "normal" dramas, on a regular TV, the color is normal.

However, yes, there has been a certain trend involving Christopher Nolan, "gritty realism", and legal-political-military-crime themes, to do color grading to massively reduce saturation and aggressively push towards blue. I don't like it much but you can also just not watch that stuff. It's stylistic the same way film noir was. Some people hated that back in the day too, now it's just seen as a style of the time.
Different brains having different experiences reach different conclusions.

If two people don't have some different opinions, at least one of them isn't thinking for themselves.
Frankly, I'd also love to see this for downvotes.
No thank you. I prefer rich colors, they consistently make world look a more lively place, the more the better. There is some getting used to of course, but it doesn't normalize at the same bottom that sea of grey/white/black is.

I hate this with passion with cars - sea of grey in western Europe. Heck, both of our cars are grey - we always buy used ones and there was simply no other option that wasn't 10k more expensive for params we wanted and were willing to pay. It looks bland, boring, unimaginative. One of top reasons why buy new - one can actually choose something nicer.

I've spent 6 months backpacking all over India and boy do they use crazy intense colors all over and everywhere including clothing - orange, purple, pink, very bright, both men and women. A very, very nice visual experience one doesn't get used to. Then coming back to western civilization where literally everybody dresses in black or dark grey during winter. Its just sad view, like winter with low amount of sunlight isn't depressing enough, no lets add some more monotonous colors.
The map is optimized on how to USE the subway. It's not like the old map was particularly good at showing relative distance.

You just use the rule of thumb 2-3 minutes per station and problem solved.
Yeah you're right, I jumped the gun there. On the other hand, color trends of science museum exhibits are a cherry-picked example. "Culture Critic"'s whole shtick is to put a photo of a modernist building next to an ornamental one, and this just seems to be that, but with a superficial layer of scientism.

It is a very noisy 3.3V supply they are using, I wonder if they removed the decoupling caps on the supply and vcore pins before doing this.

With the possibility of bypassing JTAG lock and reading firmware at least this one has practical uses compared to the ESP32 ""backdoor"". Thankfully still not quite exploitable in typical IoT use cases. Doing the same to a secure microprocessor (think smart cards, eSIM) on the other hand would be notable.

This is something that can be heavily skewed by the small N. If the people in both groups happen to closely match in their distributions of accuracy for this self-assessment then this would be correct. Larger N would make both groups much more likely to match the real distribution, which would in turn make them more likely to match each other.

PRC / Byte dance won't sell TikTok global. PRC won't export TikTok algos. There's probably some JV / oracle / project texas arrangment PRC alright with. But yeah, 100% US ownership not happening, especially as "concession" in exchange for tarrifs / export control list relief etc, which basically would reward US leverage / behaviour.
> GPT-4.5 was judged to be the human 73% of the time:

I think what happened here is that the interrogators weren't primed properly that it was an AI impersonating a human as opposed to just stock AI models

Because the ai said things like "yeh ok lol hbu?" Which most people assume an AI would never do, so they think it must be the human

They were probably on the look out for stuff like "Certainly! I would be happy to help you with that"
I strongly disagree with most of this post.

Politics dictates so much of daily life, at every level, that it's important to be able to have conversations about it. It's frankly self-righteous to see yourself as the one person with nuanced opinions in a crowd of simpletons, and while I do think that politics in many liberal democracies has become more polarized, you'll never restore nuanced debate or good-faith disagreement in political discussions by just avoiding the topic.

I'm not advocating for politics being the only thing you talk about with your friends, but if you and your friends are able to have useful discussions about the impact of some policies over others, can have constructive disagreements over reasonable political discourse, and can identify larger problematic trends in politics, a lot of good can come of that.
But then add to that repost content the amount of Meta properties only posts that do not make TikTok. Essentially, TikTok + Meta > TikTok only

To whom? It doesn't bother him personally. It thrills his supporters. Those who wish for such an obligation show no willingness to tar and feather him for non-compliance, preventing their wishes from becoming reality. What's left?
> HN is mainly left leaning

This is largely an illusion, as can be seen by the number of people complaining in the other direction about how wacko libertarians or MAGA or whatever dominate on here.

What you're actually observing is that HN is one of the more diverse public spaces you participate in and there's no personalized algorithm that filters the content to only show what you want. When your exposure to left-leaning content goes from <10% on an algorithmic feed to ~50% on HN, it feels like being overrun.

Just know that it feels just as overwhelming to the left-leaning people on here, and they will jump to the same interpretation in the opposite direction.
From a cursory search it was recorded at 1080p but the aspext ratio was 16:9, and the final.movie was to be 2.41:1, which means they had to crop the image, meaning less than 1080p.
CMake has fetch_content, and CPM is a package manager built on top of it. They are not great.
Honeypots in JS and CSS

I've been dealing with this over at golfcourse.wiki for the last couple years. It fucking sucks. The good news is that all the idiot scrapers who don't follow robots.txt seem to fall for the honeypots pretty easily.

Make the honeypot disappear with a big CSS file, make another one disappear with a JS file. Humans aren't aware they are there, bots won't avoid them. Programming a bot to look for visible links instead of invisible links is challenging. The problem is these programmers are ubiquitous, and since they are ubiquitous they're not going to be geniuses.

Honeypot -> autoban
That's so cool!

Crazy how popular 28V (140W) has gotten. I assume it's because there's a lot of 30V mosfets & passives. Going to 50V or 60V is admittedly a pretty big leap.

For a long time I've planned on combining some lipos & a 24V inverter to make a power station capable of powering my projector. But with the crazy good sales for power stations, I'll probably buy something. Not quite enough juice in this power pack, but man it's so tempting for no particular reason to get, just for this one fast-charging gimmick.

Hopefully higher voltages start showing up on the scene some day! USB-C 2.1 with EPR outlined was released May 2021; I really wasn't expecting such a long delivery pipeline. Ditto for Auracast, although I appreciated that was more a software problem than hardware market fit problem. It'd be interesting to have a review of how much if at all the actual delivery of Auracast has changed since "release"; I don't know a lot, but I poke through and the Zephyr IoT implementation has been under active development for years now, and, like, not at a slow pace either; it's hard to tell how much effort was making a spec first then making it all work, adapting & layering in new specs as they go. What an interesting story that would be to tell.
Last night I watched Erin Brokovitch (2000) and it was like looking at film that had been partially sepia-processed with the heavy handedness of the grading.
