When asked a loaded question, I point out its loaded before answering it. I could be wrong though. Perhaps you were merely ignorant of what “politics” means. In that case, I’m sorry for calling your question loaded. I hope you’ve found this

This pattern can be seen in golden age vs current kitchen utensils: the former[0] perform admirably today; the latter often are so poorly constructed that they break or have to be thrown away within a couple of years.[1] [0] at least: the u

This claim feels truthy, but is it true? Most of the big models were being trained on specialised hardware like tensor chips right? And the biggest drop isn’t because crypto is worth less, it’s because Ethereum doesn’t use proof of work sin

You think if Google or Toyota or Maersk or HSBC or AT&T stopped paying rent on their offices it wouldn’t be a major news story? It would be because it would have a dramatic impact on their perceived solvency and their share price. I’m q

Adding things to Rust needn’t increase the complexity. One of the features that should arrive in a year or so is the ability to use async functions everywhere, even in traits. Right now there’s additional complexity and difficulty for begin

Yeah! Don’t trust the man! The man is only interested in … something! There must be an ulterior motive in trying to bring scammers to book! Just think for a second. If someone has been scammed out of millions, you think they’re not going to

Agreed. I don’t think I’ll ever need these pills but I think in ten years we’ll think they’re the second most impactful thing to happen last year.

That’s pretty much what I said. People are comparing themselves with those around them. If they’re about equal, they’re happy. If the society has high inequality, they’re unhappy. The absolute level of what they have is irrelevant, which is

You can use emoji in HN comments? Emojis get automatically removed from mine. Edit: ok, some do and some don’t. 🈶 is allowed but :laugh_with_tears: isn’t. I guess there’s a specific list of emojis that are getting stripped.

You’re assuming the codebase would need to be rewritten. It’s always possible that there might be a gradual transition within the same codebase. New features could be implemented in the new language while keeping everything else the same.

This is similar to saying that no one would migrate to TypeScript because there are so many existing JavaScript codebases. The success of TypeScript and Kotlin suggest that one of the languages that hope to interoperate with C++ like Carbon
