   Those are not plain terms to me. Can you describe something that ISPs are doing right now that they couldn't do under "public interest supervision"?

   What can be worse than the major ISPs in the US? They offer last decades technology (cable) at extremely high prices (compared to other western countries), have frequent outages, questionable business practices (have you gotten your interne

   They cover all use cases of traditional IDEs, but you need to edit files instead of clicking through endless menu hierarchies. They also don't tell you what your compiler or build system should be.

   The problem is that it's not easily provable that a particular sanitation is correct (as opposed to sanitizing to prevent SQL injection). Your "don't respond to irrelevant requests" might work until somebody comes up wit

   It wouldn't double the bill. You could use a simpler model with less context size.

   Thanks for the detailed overview. I stand corrected. Posts like yours are why I love HN.

   Agreed. ISPs can allocate bandwidth on DSL/Coax trunks as they please so it should just be a configuration change to increase the upload percentage.

   Thanks for pointing that out, I don't think their premise is correct on that one, though: https://developers.google.com/search/blog/2023/02/google-sea...

   Why even care? If the article is well written and well researched and it's seemingly impossible for readers to tell the difference, what's the problem with using AI to improve it? Did people care when computers were used instead o

    You are right. It's kind of a toothless tiger without that part though.

    Are you sure? I don't have more than anecdotal data, but I remember unsubscribing from EU newsletters to be much more cumbersome than from US ones.

    To add another to your list: Being able to easily use different programming languages. Not every language is a good fit for every problem. Being able to write your machine learning deduction services in Python, your server side rendered UI

    I'm no fan of Elon Musk. Yet if you downplay the significance of cutting the cost of bringing mass to orbit by a factor of 1000, you really haven't thought through the implications of this enough. The whole "billionaires are

    Rents are stupidly high in my area and usually higher than paying a mortgage plus upkeep even at current rates (at least for single family homes). YMMV.

    I've not seen a new project started in Java in a decade, and it's pretty far down in the StackOverflow developer survey [1]. Do you have some data to back your claim up? [1]: https://survey.stackoverflow.co/2023&#x

    You get all of this by choosing Kotlin or Scala.

    Java is not the JVM. Lots of new projects on the JVM go with Kotlin or Scala.

    It's not going anywhere due to masses of legacy code. It's less of a popular choice for new projects than it ever was.

    The whole announcement doesn't even mention caches once, when that's one of the defining drivers of performance in games and elsewhere, much more so than turbo boost clock rates, which can't be thermally sustained in games an

    Not defending Tesla's horrible response to this specific incident, but obviously this happening in the first place is an outlier. On any given day, there are millions of Teslas driving in the rain without problems.

    I agree with Don Norman's points on product design, but I couldn't help but think that the current world is also designed to benefit those people who will never live long enough to be impacted by the consequences of our current in
