Might be people just flagging so mods can make an "Is this an LLM not?" determination. I see a lot of new accounts get flagged like this (and scanning the previous comments, ehhhhh yea maybe?). Idk, just guessing

I think they meant the stock market more generally? S&P 500 is up what, like 4x in the last 10 years?

I dunno, there's certainly a lot of monkey knife fight deprecations, but there's a lot that are handled pretty well. If we're talking about the source side of things, p4->piper/citc was done well. cs (get) -> grim

The compiler is compiled via java nowadays. It's bootstrapped. Yes the first one was probably written in C, however long ago. Not super relevant now though. JVM/JRE, probably a different story

Yea that's fair / makes sense from a democracy point of view (even if I might disagree personally). It's a bit odd that Europe prioritizes American big-business interests I guess? Idk, as an American it does seem kinda like

Oof wow, that's bigger than I realized. I knew there were a lot of big ones (10k+), but I didn't realize there was US highschool football being played in stadium bigger than the smallest EPL stadiums. I guess I shouldn't be

Really depends on where, and what sport. If you're in an urban school in a big city, maaayyybe some of the basketball games depending on the specific school. E.g. if your school has people who everyone knows are going into the NBA dra

I'd argue it's not just Green Bay-Dickenson on the east end, but also extending to like souix falls/Fargo on the west end "Oop, sorry" was viscerally familiar to me

Not sure if that's more or less bad than the dozens of kerbals polluting my LKO for, uh... reasons. Since I play with no mods I guess they're all still technically alive since they don't require food or water and have an appa

I don't think the specific individual technical interviews are the surreal part about canonical's hiring process

It also helps that Jane Street has like 3k employees, a good chunk of whom never touch code at all, and of those that do, a good chunk who won't be touching OCaml. Hundreds of OCaml programmers though, yes. That may not scale for larg

Ok sure, mass shooting (400) vs active shooting (100). It is still the same order of magnitude, and two orders of magnitude off of suicides (50,000). I'm not sure how that changes the point I was making, which is that suicides don&#x2

by dmoy 6mo ago
I mean... important by what metric? Active shootings in the US kill like 100 people a year (as of 2024 I guess: https://www.fbi.gov/file-repository/reports-and-publications... ) Suicides is more like 50,000/yr

The federal vs state conflict over prescribed burns doesn't help much either. In states with a much lower % of national forest or blm land or whatever, you get a much larger amount of prescribed burns. In the west coast, the state vs

In 2024 is 74%, not 11% https://www.newyorkfed.org/research/college-labor-market#--:... That is, 7% are unemployed, and 19% aren't able to find comp sci jobs. I suspect it's worse now, but probably not 11%?

Oh for sure it is very gamified. It's still very interesting in its own right though. Just don't go into it if you are looking for realism.

Olympic style fencing is pretty interesting too, to be fair. Physical Chess Also it's less... scary? At least you'll get less scary-looking bruises (though probably more total number of bruises)
