The HN version of that is that the top comment is often an analogy and then a massive thread of people just talking about the analogy rather than the actual point.

Thank you. Theso are excellent. I'll be coming back to this comment often until I internalise it all. And I don't even write in public, but I want to improve, for work, and for myself. Ps: the irony on the second paragraph of the

What exactly is the problem with moving the goalposts? Who is trying to win arguments over this stuff? Yes, Z is indeed a big advance over Y was a big advance over X. Also yes, Z is just as underwhelming. Are customers hurting the AI compan

The statement about the aggregate is meaningless without the materialised, individual transactions, because those are what determine the price. I think of it as an order book where supply is the ask and demand is the bid. You can only argue

A good answer in this situation would focus on demonstrating that you made a conscious decision based on the problem requirements and the approach that best suited the task. Here’s an example of a thoughtful response: "I considered va

Agreed. There's value in being attuned to what's there. It's breadth-first learning.

No offense to you personally, but what kind of life does one live where one needs to glance at their partners' texts to shave off those ten precious seconds.

I can't believe no one has mentioned, this is exactly the teleological fallacy. I was once very curious about evolutionary science until I realised exactly what you said. It's everywhere. Once you see it you can't unsee it. I

It was my first, and I didn't bother with the rest. There's just something in it that made me viscerally hate it, and I'm usually fond of surreal movies.

> seeing the word "Latinx" on some HR form Yes, very common in job application forms. I don't find it offensive per se, but it makes me wonder if this is the kind of company where bullshit reigns in the workplace.

How often do you use the standalone noun out of context though? Every real world usage of the term I can think of has it in the verbal form: "sentir saudade", "estar com saudade", "dar saudade", "a saudade

One example where it's leaky is when you want to memoize something, and now you need to memoize all its dependencies, recursively, and you end up with a 30 file PR. I say this as a big fan of React, and I'm hoping the compiler tur

In NZ, there's a lot of fake discounts, sure, but I found comparing prices worldwide can be a good indicator of a good deal. It's not uncommon for local shops to give massive, real discounts, making items cheaper than Amazon US or

This is why the US is so great. You debase the dollar, the whole world suffers, and you can still claim "we've outperformed our peers". Fantastic.
