Redoubts··on Trump wins presidency for second time
Municipal government exists at the pleasure of the state, and the State governments can just take back land use powers at any time. "They" here is the state Dem party, and they have an easy choice to make.

I'm a Klobuchar truther. She could have pulled this off

Biden should have picked Klobuchar in 2020

For anyone seeing this, these links are a waste of time. They don’t demonstrate a misunderstanding or provide a better one.

> Many people I speak with are worried that this is the weakest of Trump’s four pending criminal trials because it has to do with an illicit affair.

> Wrong.

No this was the weakest case. The fact that this is the one to get across the finish line, rather than say the Georgia interference case, demonstrates raw political incompetence by the democrats.

> How do people look past this

Why should we discriminate against justice impacted individuals?

Redoubts··on Generally Available: Valkey 8.0.0
Some past “what is this” context: https://lwn.net/Articles/966631/

But what I’m most excited about is the change to replication https://valkey.io/blog/valkey-8-0-0-rc1/#replication

Redoubts··on gRPC: The Ugly Parts
> The generated code isn’t even that fast

This is the most important part, the codegen products for many languages are pretty slow.

Redoubts··on Senior Intel CPU architects splinter to develop RISC-V processors
Splinter definitely implies separating from the parent entirely. A “spinoff” would be a related corporate entity.

Imagine mypy with the speed of uv…
Redoubts··on Got Ghosted names and shames companies that stop communicating
This is a really funny analogy, because crime maps within a city are very valuable.

> Just 4% of New York City’s 120,000 blocks account for nearly all of the city’s shootings, according to the data.

Redoubts··on CrowdStrike fixes start at "reboot up to 15 times", gets more complex from there
A lot of industrial machinery is just $x00,000 of equipment strapped to a windows pc. Hell, a lot of it is strapped to a version long EOL
Redoubts··on Swift Static Linux SDK
I'm guessing they clicked onto the Built with SwiftNIO link and saw this at https://github.com/apple/swift-nio.
Redoubts··on Priced out of home ownership
> I will never get tired of teaching people (it's news to every single one of them!) that at any given time, there are more than 20 empty housing units in the United States for every single homeless person on the street

Are you suggesting we deport homeless people from cities with low vacancy rates, to cities with high vacancy rates?

> There is absolutely no barrier to housing every single human being beyond greed.

I suspect your answer to the question above will reveal a barrier.

Redoubts··on ICJ orders Israel to stop military operation in Rafah
> in Iceland this would pretty much amount to a ban, as almost all media, and institutions receive at least some funding from the government

skill issue.

Trolling is a art

it's really impressive what they've done. I don't think I've ever seen a web forum churn client CPU like reddit does
Redoubts··on 100 Years of Rent Control in Sweden

What's the average Tokyo rent rn?

Redoubts··on Anon Boeing engineer reveals why the 737 door blew off
Can someone contextualize this link? On its face, I'm seeing the equivalent of someone posting a big-tech expose on this HN, only for PG himself to reply saying "pls email me at pg@ycombinator.com"; and then another reply suggesting how to avoid being outed just like Journalist X's source was, only for Journalist X to reply with "if you know how my source was outed, please text me at <cell>"

Like what is this site even?

Redoubts··on Why are we templating YAML? (2019)
> And forbidding it makes a one-keystroke action a two or four one.

You can’t be serious

Redoubts··on The $500M Dollar Typo
> If a federal employee is accidentally overpaid, the government can only recoup 16.67% of the amount of the overpayment per paycheck pay period.

Very curious to hear the story of that rule

Redoubts··on Posthog is closing their Slack community in favor of forum
This really describes the value prop of reddit, or something like it.
Redoubts··on Python 3.13 Gets a JIT
That's breakage you'd have to tread carefully on; and given the 2to3 experience, there would have to be immediate reward to entice people to undertake the conversion. No one's interested in even minor code breakage for minor short-term gain.
Redoubts··on Parable of the Polygons (2014)
'Simple rules can lead to interesting behavior, and here's a case study you might find applicable to life' seems worthy of a gander to me.
Redoubts··on Parable of the Polygons (2014)
I was reading an old reddit long-post, and saw this Vi Hart link. Figured it would be neat here, and was kinda shocked to see it reposted a lot and get 0 engagement in the last few years since the first time. I wonder what's different now...

It’s certainly common, but there’s a lot of airbus a320/321/321neo for domestics too

> we negotiated a code escrow agreement with the company.
