"Rust is a real pleasure to use for web development, and I thoroughly recommend it. It is so versatile that, without a doubt, it’s the last programming language I learned. Ever." This doesn't inspire much confidence in the ev

Griddy has vowed to fight the raised prices, saying, “The market is supposed to set the prices, not political appointees.” This criticism by the company is oddly funny given that it’s Texas, the ‘bastion’ of free market.

Reviewing doesn't cost money for journals. Scientists do it for free. As for editing, don't know how much papers improve by that beyond a very few select journals.

It seems this was written on the wall once Chris Lattner left the project. It's a shame since this could have been a real breakthrough in machine learning combining performance and ease. But the success of JAX means Google probably doe

People at HN proclaiming all FAANG companies are equally bad, here’s another feather to the hat. All of them are bad but if u remove the problems at those companies, their core business model can still survive except Facebook. It’s business

That’s Yazidi not rohingya. Two separate groups at two distant places on earth.

You are doing a whataboutism just like many others. Among FAANG, Facebook is distinctly more problematic. If you don't see that, you are just unaware of the scandals upon scandals from the last 5 years.

Coming from a third world country, whenever I see someone contrasting human rights abuses of US and China, I instantly realize the person was born and bred in the west, and does not have a meaningful realization of the level of depravity th

I have been following Dr. Levitt since the beginning of the pandemic, and I have now count loss of how many of his predictions turned out to be wrong. Also he never fleshes out how he is doing his calculations. At this point, any reasonable

Hanafi Islam is not a theological offshoot. It’s one of Islam’s 4 major schools of law, the other three are Maliki, Shafii and Hanbali. All of them are inside what is considered orthodox mainstream Islam.

The area is under-explored because AFAIK there is no introduction for someone adept in machine learning to learn the basics with coding projects in for example pytorch and showing how causal inference is bringing added benefit. If you want

Where’s the reference that Siri’s abysmal performance is from a lack of data? Apple might not have Google scale data but it should have enough to make it work through some sort of self-supervised/semi-supervised learning.

The comments on HN on Chinese aggression are so pathetic. They are conducting a systemic genocide by UN definition on Uighur muslims, and coercing people to make cheap products. Yet, you come here, and you see, oh US, Europe did this too. S

Instead of complaining about DDG on every DDG related post, maybe we can do some constructive comments on how they can improve. Love it or hate it, they are the only alternative to Google if you like your privacy.

Apparently, China is having no problem attracting foreign investment while conducting every kind of human rights abuse that exists including genocide. So, not sure, your point stands in practice.

The responsibility of the US government is not to placate any citizen from another country, it's to protect its own citizens' data. Any Chinese app being used in your own country at a massive scale is a liability waiting to be (or

There will never be a power vacuum in world politics. If it’s not going to be US, it’s going to be China and/or Russia. I have been thinking quite a lot how will that world look. Will it be better or worse?

I read a lot of pdfs. But there doesn't seem to be any quick way to scroll through pages except by hand, zoom in or out a single page or search within a pdf. Basic functionalities actually.
