Where in the EU do you live that you don't get Cartoon Network? Also when I was a kid the most popular cartoon that was not on cartoon network was a locally produced Japanese anime called Alfred Kwak. I imagine kids these days have acc

At the same time the industry is chugging along fine despite his bad advice. Despite his attitude against type checking we're gladly moving from JavaScript to Typescript and despite his attitude against better tooling we're gradua

No, it doesn't have to be bad faith. It's common (nowadays) to have such opposite beliefs that one or both opponents believe the other person is acting in bad faith or has amoral motivations. I recently had such a debate on HN and

Yes, and if you've got a fairly complex website it's unlikely it could render more than a couple dozen rendered requests per second. If you're not rendering and instead getting them from a cache, that would be different of co

You could be correct, or you might have an exaggerated preconceived notion on how hard it is to provide language level patches because of how the industry was in the 90's and early 2000's. Due to chance I've worked in a compa

What is it that you don't believe about climate change? The idea that we're emitting more CO2 than a hundred years ago? Or the idea that this is causing us to regress to the climate that we had before our hydrocarbons were sequest

He's not, you're just feeling triggered.

You're dancing around it. Climate change is happening because human activity is causing it, and human activity can change to reverse it, just like we reversed our effects on the ozone layer. I know you know that's true, so don&#x2

You're not helping. Maybe try and ask a question or contribute some knowledge. This person is misinformed and all you're doing is cement his beliefs that his opponents are clueless and spiteful.

Well if I am, that's a new name to describe me because I've held these beliefs for over 20 years. You are wrong about climate change. Ask your local weather service, the weather's not what it used to be. When the rich abandon

It's just a mindset, besides some minor beliefs they're just the same sort of people you are. I don't know if you'd consider me a leftist woke person, I feel that's something a younger generation is doing, and an ol

Lol yeah, I can really tell you're just chock-full of empathy by the way you're conducting yourself in this argument. Are you really unironically saying this or are you just trolling the "woke"? Who would you feel empath

Regardless of that it should be required for filing an automated DMCA filing with Google. They should just be paying a helpdesk that does KYC for stuff like this.

Maybe, but that's not the point. It's not about the owner of the Gmail account, it's about the identity of whoever sent the DMCA request. Google should have had more than just an email, should have verified at least a registe

Eh, isn't the real story then that Linux will route random incoming traffic on any interface? Even if you haven't configured it as a router? I know whoever was in charge of configuring Dockers iptables routes should have known thi

I have. And besides the anecdotes, you can just look at the fact that vaping became a super hype amongst kids, kids that at least in my country were not smokers and couldn't have been because cigarettes are taxed to be totally unafford

I think this might be the greatest comment I have ever seen on HN or elsewhere. Thanks, I wonder if BillG has read all four of them before he made up his mind, or that he's one-sidedly informed.

Where I live, copyright literally means the right to copy. Which means using a binary that gives/produces/generates a Disney movie when you do not have rights to that movie, you violate copyright by virtue of copying the IP into y

It is trained on the mnist dataset, to have it recognize a digit you have to make sure the digit is sized roughly to fill the entire screen. It won't work if you draw a small digit in the corner. This is just a demo of the toolchain, i

Companies where you have to log in and download invoices are the worst. If there's a viable alternative to their products I switch immediately. You make it seem like it's not a big deal, but a reasonably sized startup has dozens o

Odd story about MapBox, we used to be a customer, and their product was very solid so we were happy but we were using it in a 3d engine which was causing loads of map requests driving up the costs. We only had a couple users and the bills w

Ah you're right, I misunderstood. In your simulation you actually already know what the result of the simulation has to be ahead of time and you're just verifying the system arrives at that end result. That's very different f

The source of the non determinism is in the concurrent processing of the messages.

Strong/weak is definitely another axis. I'm not sure they could never be strong developers. I'm not saying they couldn't generate code at all, just that the first couple approaches they write miss fundamental constraints

From my experience that's the "final" phase of being a junior. Where you're perfectly capable of coming up with architectures, considering functional constraints and relationships to hardware. Maybe such a junior is fres

Jiggle programmers isn't a type of person, it's a phase juniors go through. There's a lot of stuff to cram into your brain as a junior, and when you don't have a complete model of how things work it can be basically impo

The only reason your system needs to be deterministic is because your company is afraid. If it wasn't afraid and instead just interested in making an accurate model of reality, it wouldn't be interested in determinism. Basing the

Why is determinism of the utmost importance? That's an arbitrary constraint you put on the system that doesn't even exist in the real world.
