the Bullet Cluster makes for a good comparison, there's a good image of it in the article. the bulk of the 2 galaxy clusters continued on but left behind 2 clouds of inter-cluster gas

my first impression was this could actually be a counterexample, because there we can see the heavy, dark matter-full clusters continuing on their trajectories at full speed whereas the gas slowed down and is being left behind. compared to these 3 lightweight galaxies which seem to be alone, rather than trailing behind their dark matter-hosting parents

but perhaps these 3 _are_ going slower than their full-scale origin galaxies. I would stake my view as a layman on whether anyone can find the dark matter galaxies that spawned these farther along their expected trajectories

nope. live in the forest, take care of yourself. a 250' sitka spruce fell from my neighbor's property onto the roof of my detached garage. it cost over 10k to fix it. the neighbor was not liable; it was covered by insurance

I got it down to 39% after 66 presses. It would be harder if it didn’t show you the rate. I was definitely learning from the feedback

that’s not deleting the data then. making people play Only Connect to parse out weasel phrases is akin to lying by omission. they say the same thing at US airports which is why I still opt out of the face scan at security. of course they keep hashes of the image and its features otherwise what’s the point

it's reinforced in the same sentence after you cut off your quote and is repeated again further into the article:

> Nash said the caves would have been "quite a cosy place to live, especially compared with the -20°C outside".

> working with what tech?

trapped in a bubble… nobody is good enough to work here. go back to bangladesh where all your sr staff must live

still couldn’t answer a basic question. I know I wouldn’t be hiring you with this communication track record

working with what tech? you didn't answer the question to a reasonable extent. it seems odd you need to hire people into principal and "distinguished" titles, you should be promoting from senior/staff to fill those internally. unicorn hunting is an organizational problem, not a useful reflection of the hiring market

Care to share with rest of the class what the role is, then?

Multi-model cross-review is important

“If I’d had more time, I’d have written a shorter letter”

if this is how you write to LLMs, I can easily see why you aren’t more productive over all from using them

my day job already had a messy codebase before AI. monorepo with half a million loc spanning 5 languages (excluding bash and declarative langs). everyone uses AI handily here.

you misread the parent reply

look at the sibling reply. these back-handed concessions are always either “AI is a great productivity boost if you’re just slamming out a CRUD web app” or the special snowflake “my big beautiful codebase is too complex.” maybe they are holding it, wrong with attitudes like that it’s hard to take them seriously. the phd holders at my office are some of the most prodigious vibe coders we have

ps: since when was complexity ever a good defense for why your codebase is difficult to work in?

wouldn't treating lock-in as taboo be a good thing?

I would call that a pipeline, which may be a type of graph, but might have communicated your point more concretely to begin with

okay, I have that use case as well and it is driven by an invite code. it works well for new sign-ups and existing users, and you can even just let the user copy the link and send it themselves if they're on discord or something else. no email required for pseudonymous sharing, bonus feature to send an email invite if it is given

email addresses are not good primary or foreign keys, so yes you should be using IDs of one form or another. this shouldn't affect your authentication scheme (cookies vs bearer tokens or what have you), just authorization. if you've muddied the two, you'll have some debt to resolve and this issue could just be a valuable tip-off to that

I noticed very recently I actually prefer reviewing other people’s generated code over handwritten. There’s no ego involved and it usually does a better, more thorough job. We have enough infrastructure that by the time another human lays eyes on it for the first time each pull request has already been through 3+ rounds of automated review. Being the only specialist in my area on the team used to mean more coaching and more involvement in code review. Now my coworkers are sending me idiomatic solutions with modern approaches that I approve right away or with hardly any comments

Knowing what to learn has always been an implicitly vital skill to career growth. Maybe it’s all right fewer people will know regex, just like as each year passes relatively fewer people know about var hoisting in JS

What does the business benefit from you handwriting regex vs a clanker?

Unexpectedly successful fishing comment lol

The van weighs 1500lbs less and has discs up front. It’s seriously not that far off

the most unsafe drivers I see usually have a "baby on board" bumper sticker. foot out the window, eyes down looking at a phone, can't stay in their lane, let alone manage a consistent (speed limit obeying) pace

the first time I drove a model 3 I felt like I couldn't stop. it's on par with my 80s van that has drum brakes on the rear. the brakes just aren't good enough for sport, the car weighs too much. if this is hard to understand, you're living in a different world from motorsports enthusiasts

less than 1g is pitiful tbh. I’m no pro but have maxed out the meter on my wee sports car >1g front, left and right. it can only muster 0.5g accel so it’s worse than a tesla, am I right? having put in some serious miles on a model 3, those electrics are in another league — below

here's a quote from wikipedia. it was an utter land grab and an easy way out of responsibility for those in power

> The League of Nations gave Britain mandatory power over Palestine in 1922. British rule and Arab efforts to prevent Jewish migration led to growing violence between Arabs and Jews, causing the British to announce its intention to terminate the Mandate in 1947. The UN General Assembly recommended partitioning Palestine into two states: Arab and Jewish. However, the situation deteriorated into a civil war. The Arabs rejected the Partition Plan, the Jews ostensibly accepted it, declaring the independence of the State of Israel in May 1948 upon the end of the British mandate. Nearby Arab countries invaded Palestine, Israel not only prevailed, but conquered more territory than envisioned by the Partition Plan. During the war, 700,000, or about 80% of all Palestinians fled or were driven out of territory Israel conquered and were not allowed to return, an event known as the Nakba (Arabic for 'catastrophe') to Palestinians. Starting in the late 1940s and continuing for decades, about 850,000 Jews from the Arab world immigrated ("made Aliyah") to Israel.

I'm confused, is 78 years a long time? even the US is considered a toddler by empirical terms. zionism wasn't a thing until a minority group had the loudest voice in the room when the allies were discussing what to do with all the european refugees after ww2, and it happened to align well with the brits abandoning their failed colony in the region due to disputes with the locals

lost me at the github stars chart, but "Bypassing Browser Constraints" is great. that's just what users want /s

do you buy things just to look at them? my vehicles (all 8) are for driving. fuel costs vary, and as another commenter in this thread said they were comparing $50 (max) to recharge an EV vs $40 (min) for gas. so depending on where you live, what you drive, and how you drive it you'll get wildly different ideas about fuel costs. fueling up is not maintenance either. even in the best case the difference in fuel cost is a drop in the bucket vs the difference in vehicle price
