Is there any timeline on the horizon for normies who don't know anyone important can get a token?

I wish I could get a bead on how useful ML is. Hackernews makes me think it’s all hype.

One thing I've never understood about this position--why is university such a stark cutoff? Most everyone agrees students shouldn't have to pay for their books in K-12. We agree it's better for our society if primary and seco

I can only speak for myself, but I've never found the `Foo foo = new Foo()` that onerous. In fact, it seems kinda quaint after a bunch of Guice and Dagger stuff

I think that for both examples, having people's attention is a precursor to doing anything else. That's just my intuition though. Maybe it is possible to have a landing page that people leave much more quickly but that is more suc

I think if time on page and average session metrics suggested that's what people wanted, that's what we would see. It's like complaining about how the news reports on inane stuff.

Is there anything written about this? I'm extremely skeptical that a big chunk of people in such a highly online country just left their phones at home. Maybe some of the Hardeim but I would guess 95+% of people wouldn't do this

When they say REPL in this context is that a reference to replit.com?

Don't people who've been infected count toward the herd immunity. That ~30% of Americans. I know there's some overlap but if we can get to 70% of people vaccinated I think we'd be really close, no?

Not really a buyers market rn. Maybe this ideological position will specifically attract people who feel alienated by SV culture, maybe not. But there's no way that losing a large fraction of your engineering team is anything but a dis

Wow tbh I thought this post was being kinda precious until the menus thing. That is so gross and has never occurred to me.

Like any other externality that isn't constrained by regulation, the problem is raging out of control. https://www.bloomberg.com/opinion/articles/2021-04-17/space-...

It's definitely interesting, but I don't get how this kind of thing doesn't make other people feel a kind of intense sadness. It's like the intersection of the insignifigance and smallness of my own individual existence

Thanks this makes sense. So the toIndex is literally defined as "the index after the last element in the range".

I just took a look at the rangeCheck: https://majadhondt.wordpress.com/2012/05/16/googles-9-lines/ Is this example correct? Can someone explain to me how this: if (toIndex > arrayLen) is correct?

I agree with and appreciate your position. I'm more annoyed with Apple than with the security researchers. Apple is preying on your desire to do good. They could easily afford to pay a reasonable amount and promptly.

Jerusalem definitely has the age, but it's never struck me as a place of intense urban activity. Am I wrong?

Kinda curious now, are there other examples of cities like this? Rome? Jakarta?

If there are really 1063 I would think conservationists could know about almost every one individually. That's smaller than the high school I went to. I know they are spread out over a wide area in a dense jungle but I think it would b

Many of the places in the world with better infrastructure than the US have more strict industrial regulation and, in some cases, a government that is much further to the left.

Do you find pretty universal recognition of unit 8200 among American companies at this point? Most recruiters and hiring managers must be somewhat familiar by now, no?

I think this kind of lock in doesn't exist because you can create bridges to native code anywhere in the code.

I've recently been reading a bit about the history of Israel and the prolific tech industry there. Funny enough the founders are Israeli (company was in NYC), and one of them had a leadership role in the Talpiot program--something akin

Is this a substantial number of environmentalists? I've never encountered the sentiment.
