For those wondering, the title is some kind of culture reference. Perhaps it should be changed to "Twilight of Just-In-Time Compilation"?

Friends of yours have died because the word "hacking" has multiple meanings? That's a pretty bold claim. Care to share any details about these deaths?

It's mounted to the trailer in an inverted position. Whatever it is, it looks nothing like an X-47.

> Strong men create good times.

Or sometimes they just kill each other in cycles of violence spanning generations.

> Good times create weak men.

Or they enable amazing things like the internet, modern medicine, and empires that last 1000 years.

Sorry, but I've seen this pithy quote before and I wish it would go away - it's simply not true.

I don't understand why you would cite Covid lockdowns (a centrally-coordinated government policy) as evidence of individual impact. Is this not an argument against your own point?

This doesn't detract from your main point, but there is a third alternative to fixing a purpose-made pencil sharpener vs buying a new one - use a knife.

This is what I did as a child whose family had no access to such luxuries. Of course, you can't bring this solution to school.

I don't think what you are describing is a normal work environment. I have experienced something similar though - and it sounds like you work with sociopaths.

If that's the case, the classic advice is to disengage and find another job as soon as possible. Staying will not be healthy for your mind. Good luck.

I use 80 character limits, and suggest corrections to that effect during code reviews. I feel it helps readability.

Is it becoming a tend to have longer limits?

If there is a message here beyond the usual "you are the product", it's obscured by the author's choice of language. I'm not sure what "the algorithm" is, but clearly it's sentient, malevolent, and out to get me.

I nuked the planet and cracked open a bottle of champagne. Mission accomplished. The AI didn't seem to mind.

The only time I have had to query a database using JS/TS is in React Native + SQLite. However, as far as I can tell, Prisma has no support for this stack, so TypeORM remains the only practical choice here - rough edges and all.

I would love to try Prisma otherwise.

Nobody forces them to treat their own family that way. It is a choice they've made for themselves.

HN is not a hivemind, those were all different people with opposing views.

It's hard to take the author seriously when he gushes over the joys of using the touch bar, the life-changing productivity gains of having a faster computer, and - yes - the benefits of down-sizing to a smaller screen. Apple can do no wrong, it seems.

This might be true on more civilized "niche" communities, but the split on the default front page is roughly 50/40/10% ragebait/meme/substantive content, and I use the word "substantive" very generously.

Would you mind sharing more about your experience? I'm curious what you were trying to build that was too much for RN.

I've been seeing this take a lot, generally without counter recommendations. If ejecting extremists from polite society is not an option, then what is?

Some have suggested seeing things from their perspective, and engaging with them in some way. However, it is clear that they do not want to argue in good faith, and have become completely separated from logic and reality.

No action at all is a decision in favor of the status quo, with the obvious outcomes. What, then, is the alternative?

The author is already employed at Facebook.

We have laws like this for computer hackers. No-one ever defends themselves by saying "everything I did was enabled by the poorly designed system, therefore I am not a criminal". Why not for the financial system?

This is not a valid argument. A company's actions don't have to result in a riot to be worthy of criticism. One meaningful complaint can be enough.

The entire structure is original, and about 2000 years old. It was built on top of an earlier temple with a completely different design - that's probably what you're thinking of.

This may be controversial, but I don't believe an unborn fetus has any inherent value outside of whatever feelings of hope and excitement it elicits in the parents. If those feelings are instead of dread and anguish, it should be terminated for the benefit of all.

The quote seems to imply there is value in the suffering of a disabled child and its parents - suffering for its own sake - which is absolutely horrific.

Reading this gives me flashbacks of my own fall from about 45 feet, which broke my spine, pelvis, and ankle.

The initial days after the surgery were confusing, painful, and scary. If the fractures had been another half inch to the right, I would have been paralyzed for life.

Indeed, I lost control over my bowel functions, and for a few agonizing days was unclear if I would ever get them back. I learned how to insert my own catheter to avoid the embarassment of having it done for me.

The following weeks were spent wheelchair-bound in a rehab facility, where each day brought surreal new challenges, but also small increments of progress. A year later, all bodily functions have been restored, with only minor limitations.

If you have also been struck by disaster, and narrowly escaped by sheer miracle, you will understand the intense gratitude and sense of purpose that one is filled with in such circumstances.

Gratitude for all the little things that were almost taken away forever - wiggling your toes, playing a sport, walking to the store, using the toilet unassisted. Gratitude for all the help, care, and healing from medical staff, without which life would be awful and pointless.

And a deep sense of purpose, as you realize how short and fragile that life is. It is a powerful reminder to learn, build, and grow while you still have the resources and opportunity.

I think about it less as time goes on, but sometimes I will see the ground rushing at me, or glimpse a flash of the life I almost had... and it keeps me on my toes.

GP said "threatens", not "sues". Here are some results from searching "trump threatens journalist":

> So food is really important and vital. Should the government be in charge of growing and distributing food?

> Of course not. This experiment has been tried with horribly deadly results.

I assume you're referencing famines in communist countries, etc. In those instances, the government had a monopoly on food growth and distribution.

Your example is irrelevant because the USPS is just one of numerous mail carriers (UPS, FedEx, etc).

Past a certain zoom level it displays historical imagery. Zoom out to get recent photos.

Judging from your post, your English grammar could use some improvement. It's possible you're experiencing discrimination for that reason. Have your resume and cover letter edited by a fluent/native English speaker, and you may see increased response rates.

I am struggling with a similar problem (food, and gas in particular, affecting my sleep) and was wondering if you'd be willing to share more about your experience.

Managing one's emotions is a choice, experiencing them in the first place is not.

> The supplier/buyer relationships are very "frenemy" even in the best of times.

Why?
