That's not what liquid courage means ;) (Though that is otherwise good advice!)

I think they read the title but not the article and assumed Rust was being removed, and (rightfully, if that were true) opined that that was a shortsighted decision. (Of course, that's not what's happening at all.)

You may want to read the article. (Spoiler alert: Rust graduated to a full, first-class part of the kernel; it isn't being removed.)

Oh my god you're right. That's so annoying. Even Netflix got sued over a Black Mirror spinoff that used the phrase. They countersued to invalidate the trademark; the suit was settled under undisclosed terms. I would love to know h

You jest, but that's how my sister gets through life, and it's always fascinated me. She's incredibly intelligent, but more importantly she's a phenomenal social networker. She always has someone to call to ask about a

I don't know, I'd kind of like to see their responses before passing that much judgement on them. > you're advocating for a toxicly positive carebear forum Please stop putting words in my mouth.

Well that sucks. It's exactly the site that comes to mind when I think "most popular alternative to HN". I've generally found conversation there to be more respectful than HN, rather than less, when discussions get hea

Good on you. Honestly, if there's any chance the content they posted on your profile before locking you out comes close to defamation, I'd consider talking to a lawyer about it. It could be that getting one to send them a cease-an

Well now I'm curious: what's the limit of G<n> as <n> goes to infinity? A truncated sine wave? (insofar as sine waves are their own derivative, shifted by 90 degrees, so if I'm doing my math right they would theor

That pissed me off so much. I was one of the backers and I was sooooo looking forward to an affordable home SLS printer. They'd done some incredible engineering, too, in service of getting the price point down to where it was. Scaling

Card-carrying AES member here. The X32 module interface is actually fairly simple: it's more or less just four 8-channel I2S TDM streams going in either direction. Easy peasy to interface with, nothing as complicated as AES50 involved.

Exactly - AES/EBU over XLR has been a thing in the broadcast world for ages. The Behringer WING mixer even has a pair of AES/EBU ports on the back.

Indeed, but one could easily argue that 128 bits of entropy aren't sufficient for a good invite token in the first place.

That's true, and yet they didn't. We can (rightfully) blame them for that, but people are still pissed off at Apple, and whether or not they deserve it they still suffer the reputational damage. That's why this quote is relev

That's not what that quote is about. If you owe the bank $100 and don't pay, that's your problem: you'll get in trouble for it, and the bank isn't going to be unduly harmed. If you owe the bank $100 million and don&

Exactly. As they say: if you owe the bank $100, that's your problem; if you owe the bank $100 million, that's the bank's problem.

I'm pretty sure they meant 27cm, or 270mm. Or perhaps they meant 297mm - the exact height of a sheet of A4 - and mistyped the "9".

Hate to break it to you but, sample size of 9, my entire friend group talks like this. We're all in our 30s. Language changes. The construction "what's up" and its extension "what's up with ..." didn'

Audio Hijack isn't a recording app. It's an app that allows you to selectively route audio from individual apps to different destinations - audio interfaces and otherwise. Its built-in recorder is a small part of what the overall

This. If there's one thing I've found AI to be a huge timesaver for, it's writing things that interact with libraries/frameworks/codebases that have an atrociously large surface area. AI can sift through the noise

This is so tautological that I can't really tell what point you're trying to make.

Batteries would also be able to 10x if their load was 10x under max, so I'm not sure how this is relevant to GP's point.

Same! I have no idea what HN's tolerance is for the relevant medical language, so I'll put it like this: when I was on atomoxetine and after engaging in ahem activities, my pelvic floor muscle would stay contracted for something

That's addressed in the article. There absolutely is: > Much of the HN codebase consists of anti-abuse measures that would stop working if people knew about them. Unfortunately. separating out the secret parts would by now be a lot
