I'm going to disagee with you there. You are seeing the world through a different lens driven by constant churn in the tech industry. In many industries if you are just a drone that does their job reasonably well, will work overtime ev

I think popular is very situational though. For me I see a lot more dynamic than condensers but I guess if you are talking about what is in like every single IOT thingamabob then you might be right there.

That is not necessary true. There are at least 4 different types of microphones. Condenser which does in fact form part of a capacitor, dynamic which is effectively a linear generator (coil attached to membrane), ribbon which is a change in

Of the big metal things that can "set sail" and "drop anchor" there happens to be a very large set of classifications... But using your heuristics, that catamarang crew should probably have been interviewed.

Don't correlate hackernews and YCombinator. I am perfectly aware of the owner here but there is usually at least one or two posts a day here that has what I call a "hacker culture".

We have different definitions of hacker. I played around with LLMs... Found they aren't very useful. Slapping a project together to ship isn't what hacking is about. Hacking is about deeply understanding what is actually happening

I do believe the comment thread made the point I would have used here... Use gsl::span or write your own bounded span. std::span is not bounds checked...

Image generation for product ads. And no need to tell me that's not happening, I have seen multiple examples this week for AI generated images with a product comped in.

Oh I don't disagree that it isn't easy to do that. It really is. I'm saying it's likely not needed.

Ah yes. We are on the same page now. I 100% would believe what you described in this comment is expected behaviour, it makes sense to me. And yeah I was thinking about this a decent amount today and thought the only way you could even begin

Just for clarification, did you have one connection per thread or one global connection? If it's the latter your error would make sense since you created a race condition, databases connections aren't magic, they are still just fi
