It's wild that in this thread we're still falling victim to the McNamara fallacy. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/McNamara_fallacy

A Google for Taychium doesn't show anything, do you have a link or paper?

There is no privacy invasion here (that isn't even the right argument). If you think that HN misrepresents the data then sure that's a valid concern, but it's not a privacy invasion. But really, the HN date is when it got exp

It's quite hard to see those sadly due to how freight operators handle traffic - you often have to use word-of-mouth and FB groups to track them. I know there's a lot of railfans that have this data, but I'm not sure it'

I mean it does feel right for the government to regulate visible light? The same way you can't have flashing lights on the road or have a massive blinding beacon in your backward, you can't yell on the airwaves. I'm sure if v

We put our servers in datacenters for a real reason, not just for fun though. Good luck training an AI when your intra node communication is over the internet (this is obviously a technical problem, but the truth is we haven't solved i

There's also the bomb every datacenter doing AI thing that LeCun has proposed, which is a lot more practical than this. Or perhaps a self replicating work that destroys AIs.

Even today there are people who have little skepticism and take mysticism seriously, it is likely that any evidence against this person did not survive the times.

It would be great if the companies who complained about ghosting and quite quoting quit ghosting and constructive dismissal, but the world isn't all perfect sadly.

Their entire point is to be different then that - if you want servers just go to HPE and spec out some servers. (Which really does beyond small scale, but at the rack level it's unheard of)

Or, it could be that being San Francisco has agglomeration effects (granted most startups/companies uterrly fail at this part).

If doesn't have to be good, but sometimes if I click one wrong video and then leave (to go do something for instance), the algorithm will assume this is my new hyperfixation and I will have to just ignore my recommended at that point.

I think (based on my limited research) it's either a loose affiliation (mainly based in China or Russia), or the children of party elites who likely have more privileges and access than thr average North Korean.

Hmm that's fair. I think for most hobbyist applications though it really is gluing a bunch of things together, up until the point where you have two get FCC certified or stuff behaves erratically and you have to go and learn this stuff

Right, but ChatGPT cannot debug your software for you either, not without a lot of work. Traditional autorouting is connecting pins - similar to how ChatGPT glues together software components.

I think this comment made a lot more sense in a world without ChatGPT and Copilot - the popularity of those things are off the charts!

If you believe you are the only one who can break the cipher, then it doesn't really matter if your allies are using them - after all, spying happens even among ostensibly allied or friendly countries. I think most people's source

This seems weird to given the number of breakages and standard library changes I seem to run into every version.

WASI runners are just an application. I guess you need your kernel to run prograns and have syscalls, but that is a low bar.

I don't really follow this comments. It's a bit too rambly and circuitous for me to follow, and I gave it a few tries, but I do admit I'm not the best at reading walls of text. From what I can tell, you're trying to argu

What's the actual solution for that? I've only used Vue and Solid where "computeds" functions fall out of how signals or reactivity work, not sure how it works in React-land. Do you just leave it as a plain function and

Predictive policing feels like something that someone could think would be noble but could be abused though? Like to me, most things that we consider "evil", someone else could conceivably consider noble or useful or at least a ne

Right, but D burned some of its very valuable growth time stagnating, and probably turned a lot of people off from D. It's a nice language now, but how many people never did (and will never now) give it a chance because of the "st

I don't think it's half a day to get proficient, it's half a day to hack something half working together so they're unblocked and can do the other stuff they want to do.

Apple frequently tells customers that their data would be wiped if they send their devices in for repair, I don't see why customers would challenge a repair shops assertion - it doesn't seem implausible either!

It depends on what you mean by maximum performance. In general Rust is pretty fast, but safety checks do cause slow down, and even with the unsafe escape hatch there are code patterns and use cases Rust currently can't address that wel
