Interestingly, in all my volunteering experience with the homeless and also hurricane relief in Tennessee/North Carolina, there were many conservatives there helping alongside us, in many instances most of of them - assuming so as they

Piggybacking off your comment, I just completed a detailed research paper where I compared Haskell to C# with an automated trading strategy. I have many years of OOP and automated trading experience, but struggled a bit at first implementin

This is well said here. Off on a small tangent, but I received my undergrad from a well known for-profit technology school that isn't respected at all. My understanding is that a resume with this specific school is sometimes thrown o

The word "super" is enough to make my red flags fly. As a millennial the word super is something that I remember only being used around the house, or between young friends. Fast forward to the last few years and the casual use o

As a mid/senior level engineer I feel the same - this kind of content just plain sucks, and seeing Gemini respond with the karma comment is icing on the cake. Not that long ago on HN there were things being posted regularly about hardw

My online gaming days are basically non-existent the last decade, but seeing stuff like this makes me want to make my comeback. The funny and bizarre stories I have from WoW...

Selling it as a pain reliever I can't buy into personally based off my anecdotal experience. I've had chronic pericarditis for more than a decade now and THC amplifies mine as well, as I tend to focus more on the pain. I think i

There is an important lesson to be had here, not just in writing articles, but software engineering as well. We should be checking our work very diligently, including code libraries. If a developer is using agents/LLMs to steamroll t

I sense your frustration and I think they were probably being a bit sarcastic... I won't speculate on a loaf of bread, but I would speculate that everything from a loaf of bread to a home increases in price substantially if minimum wa

A lot of people, especially the tech crowd, have been taught in undergrad the importance of critical thinking and evidence supported conclusions. Also, I think the science/mathematical mind is drawn to this line of thinking as well, w

I'm glad your dad told you to fight back. It's good for a child's development to stick up for themselves, using violence as a last resort if needed.

Had a newer employee rewriting some functions with LLMs, but not really admitting to it. I don't really care about the LLM aspect and think it can be quite useful with learning, but I would like to see newer people learning the system

I was curious too and found these pretty quickly - I dunno if this applies to all topics, but at least the political ones: https://papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers.cfm?abstract_id=5022797 https://media4.manhattan

This kind of stuff is repulsive to me. I'm sure it's similar elsewhere too, but my local radio stations in the Midwest have been running ads about not harassing athletes over sports betting. The whole thing is comical to me, sin

Yeah I've been reading the PDF and a lot of finely detailed technical info is missing, making it hard to piece together. If he had the remote VM up and running, there would have at least been one persistent connection.

Understand and noted on the points you make. Also, I'm sorry to hear about your friend.

I did not check into SK, but Japan has consistently been about the same or higher with the US for many years. Even with a drop in the last year, still very similar to one another. The purpose of my original comment was that the US dwindles

As someone who has worked all over the world with several different cultures and types of people, including in war zones, saying “the rest of the world shakes their head” is an extremely broad generalization. Different countries have very

I see where you are going there, but I'm not so sure that rings true. Not to get too dark, but IIRC, Japan has higher suicide rates. And most are non-gun methods, like hanging, throwing oneself in front of a train, etc.

Agreed. I just let people talk and have for many years now, no matter how well I know the person. Someone might start talking about chem trails or maybe another conspiracy and I always entertain them for the most part. Here and there I m

This doesn't just apply to Tesla of course. You've discovered what is in most modern Infotainment systems. The car no longer belongs to the customer and is a source of continuous revenue for the manufacturer - at least that&#x27

Young in my career I bombed a five person panel interview once with a bunch of questions like this. One of them I remember being especially unfair - "if one of our systems connections goes down, how would you troubleshoot it"? I

Your comment leaves out some key details that need mentioned as not to confuse anyone. I'd like to clarify that this is true for a future alone (if cash settled), but not a futures option. Selling one futures option and having it expi

As someone who has created and runs automated trading algos (not a 4.5 Sharpe though) based off a lot of the things you've mentioned here, this still has no effect on the regular dude who puts $500 in SPY every other paycheck and forge

I don't disagree with much of your comment, but I immediately saw this as a bullish sign for the markets, along with oil prices possibly coming down. I saw the B2 bombing as a crescendo to the conflict. I shorted volatility futures o

Each one needs inspected one by one - but there is always the chance that package names have been purposefully obfuscated. It's really quite the uphill battle.

As someone who packed pears for my first job in a warehouse at 15 1/2 years old for 10 hours a week, this comment is great. Working in a warehouse for pennies is about as worse as it gets. Now, as a well paid software engineer, a ver
