No, of course not, everyone makes mistakes. But also the point of code review is not just to catch mistakes, suggest improvements, etc, but as a way to learn and keep up-to-date with the code base, and also to pick up tips or whatever from

It's maybe relevant on a CV, not so on HN, which is for 'look at this', not 'look at me'.

Very well done, and I hope you build this out further, but please leave out the 'as a 17 yo'. I really don't think it's relevant and risks coming across as cloying - your work should (and does) stand on it's own.

So maybe the problem is actually the measurement, GDP, and market structure, etc. Actually making things that people need is obviously a large and essential part of 'the economy', and, well, what people actually need, even if it i

cue 'Fennel is not a lisp' etc. This looks like Common Lisp, so the full kitchen sink, with all the, um, historical, 'car' 'cdr', caaadr' stuff etc. Fennel is more a lisp-like (clojure-like) syntax for Lua

Looking forward to some variant of 7040 (zen 4 / RDNA 3) as the cpu.

I think you want them to show, just not too bright. Otherwise you get stars mysteriously disappearing.

Lucky you. The point is, getting a website to render correctly across a range of browsers and their specific configurations is not too much of an ask (Well, it's not easy, but the vast majority of other sites manage it), and this one f

So this is what I get in my browser (firefox, nothing special): https://imgur.com/a/Ceebssh The side menu, even collapsed, overlays the content. This is a website lauding IBM design, and yet ... IBM succumbed to financ

erm, no, perhaps most people who use Python, deal with it, because they have to. And it's about significant indentation/whitespace-defined-scope, not spaces versus tabs, though that can also cause havoc for these languages. Sure P

But this is about AI generated nudes, not actual nudes, so there is no consent. I don't think there are many people now, especially young people, who are unaware that AI can generate such content, so the assumption must be that nudes a

The images are fake, so this just seems like another form of bullying to me, with possibly an added sex dimension, which is always a red-hot button for anglo-protestant societies. Is this really much different to bullies sending out picture

"Regularly they were subject to oppression, murder, and savagery by their neighbors." The problem seems to be that Israel, the victim, has become the perpetrator.

Comes across a little as an Israeli stooge to me. The backwards antics of some immigrant communities in western nations, burning flags and whatever, should indeed not be tolerated. But the fact is that terrorism is winning. And it is winnin

Yes it's like weavers and looms. It depends if the 'skill' of programming/creating shifts more to the LLMs vs programmers. If so market capitalism will see programming commodified. If not, and LLMs just add leverage to w

Yet this is exactly what the article's argument amounts to. There is simply no way to feed 8B with cozy 'holistic regenerative' approaches to farming. We're barely capable of doing it with the current rapacious mega-cong

There's nothing unexpected about this, and the clue is in the title, it's an old technique called 'mudying the waters'. When people can't trust some of the news, it erodes their trust in all of it, and then they can

This situation always makes me think of the scifi books 'Deathworld' by Harry Harrison. Whatever the solution, or at least, path forward, is, it is never 'more aggression', especially from a position of power.

Non sequiteur, as AFAIK America had not been systematically oppressing Japan for decades. Pearl Harbor was not then a desperate attempt to upturn the rotten-apple cart, but a simple imperial power grab.

Exactly, and in fact they will just create more radicals, and push the existing ones to even more barbaric extremes. I'm starting to feel radical myself, and I have no connection at all to events, other than being able to spot a bully

"I find the implication to such line of questioning to be rather obvious" Indeed. The poster's legalese may well be valid, but the intent here is quite plain for all to see, as evidenced by youtube's response.

Yes this whole thing is bullshit. Hamas obviously are a bunch of evil barbarians. On the other hand, they're spawned from decades of systematic oppression of Palestinians (I've seen it fh) by Israel, isrealis, and their insecurity

The problem with any argument over capitalism is that it is responsible for both good and bad. On the one hand all the innovation and cheap prices are a result of capitalism driven competition. On the other hand, all the deceptive marketing

"Second, flat-bed models have rotating emitters s" Now that's interesting, how do they work - is it a rotating waveguide? I see an hour or two of web 'research' ahead.
