influxmoment··on Berry is a ultra-lightweight dynamically typed embedded scripting language
Don't care for the way they do exceptional handling. Make errors part of the type system
influxmoment··on FTC sues Amazon for illegally maintaining monopoly power
Did you say career ending moment? I think I misread that. Who wants a former employee and their lawyers targeting your reputation. Do you know anything about what whistleblowers have to go through?
influxmoment··on Croc: Easily and securely send things from one computer to another
In what situation do people use these tools? I find I have ssh already when I need to transfer files securely
influxmoment··on Neobanking: The Golden Opportunity
So it's only true because the trend at the moment is money is created by central banks giving loans. Is a roundabout misleading statement from the parent comment
influxmoment··on The global trading system is starting to rearrange itself
"China's middle class has become reasonably wealthy." I wonder how

"There are poorer countries yet to be exploit" exploit is it. The contortions involved in being anti capitalism

influxmoment··on Armed with traffic cones, protesters are immobilizing driverless cars
People will defend themselves. Robots taking care of people won't
influxmoment··on Armed with traffic cones, protesters are immobilizing driverless cars
I'm not sure if the cars are the problem. Many things can be disabled with malicious vandalism. We can ban automated elevators because people can put a stick in them and break them
influxmoment··on Crypto Startup Bankrupt After Losing Password to $38.9M Crypto Wallet
And then the founders started a new company and people lent them money again. You can only fail upwards in crypto
influxmoment··on Show HN: LlamaGPT – Self-hosted, offline, private AI chatbot, powered by Llama 2
That would require custom training. This project only does inference
influxmoment··on Judge sends Sam Bankman-Fried to jail over witness tampering
He's an entitled psychopath with two Stanford law professor parents. I'd say he's been getting away with things this whole life and doesn't feel the need to stop now. Maybe reality will catch up with him when the sentencing happens
influxmoment··on Ferromagnetic half levitation of LK-99-like synthetic samples
Seeing mistakes about Korean names in the media is very common. It's a lost cause at this point
influxmoment··on Scientists of Chinese descent leaving the US at an accelerating pace
Given the rampant corporate theft by Chinese nationals linked to the CCP prosecution is low to nonexistent. Far from a witch hunt
influxmoment··on LK-99 is an online sensation but replication efforts fall short
The science police want to keep their authority. Evidence on Twitter isn't real evidence unless it had been endorsed by the science police
influxmoment··on Nvidia’s CEO Is the Uncle of AMD’s CEO
Uncle has a specific meaning in English. In nearly ever other culture/language family titles are more flexible
influxmoment··on Tesla Model Y overtakes Corolla to be world’s best-selling car in 2023
Maybe watch less sensational news and go outside more. I wouldn't feel so immune in your combustion car. You know what combustion means? You'd be surprised to know they also combust unexpectedly and on impact
influxmoment··on Electric cars prove we need to rethink brake lights
Sounds like an Ioniq specific oversight and bad design not a general problem with break lights
influxmoment··on Writing Python like it's Rust
[1, 3, 12].sort() == [1, 12, 3]

5 in [5] == false

influxmoment··on Kids who get smartphones earlier become adults with worse mental health
When I was a kid I knew people addicted to reading as an escape. Unhealthy escapism. Just saying it's not always the method of escape that's the source of the problem
influxmoment··on HP disables customers’ printers if they use ink cartridges from cheaper rivals
Free markets don't work if fraud and bad actors are not prosecuted. Otherwise lies and fraud will win against honest actors
influxmoment··on Why are lithium prices collapsing?
Wow the replies to this are nuts. All sorts of mental contortions to make lithium sound controversial when it's way down the list of controversial industries
influxmoment··on Twitter suspends pg's account [fixed]
Is there more to his story that matches exactly Elons version? He was largest shareholder and then CEO. Yes more LARPing by insecure haters. And then he slept for 7 years, right? And Tesla builds a million cars a year... somehow
influxmoment··on Twitter suspends pg's account [fixed]
Yea this is a fail. Honestly be more interesting if people made more genuine arguments. He clearly paid a major role in Tesla. This is answer above is a whole lot of LARPing
influxmoment··on Twitter suspends pg's account [fixed]
Explain the success of his previous companies without lying or references left wing conspiracies? I genuinely want to see an answer to this. Can't state things as fact that 5 seconds on Google can disprove

I already know the answers are going to be he uses his secret emerald mine to power the self landing rockets

influxmoment··on Twitter suspends pg's account [fixed]
Good observation. Dealing with non mechanical objects is not his strength
influxmoment··on Twitter applies 7-day suspension to half a dozen journalists
Twitter feed the money to their employees. Was a bad deal for shareholders
influxmoment··on Twitter applies 7-day suspension to half a dozen journalists
It's a public company and the company executives act in the best interest of the shareholders not on their own personal political preferences
influxmoment··on Twitter has re-suspended ElonJet account
Guess free speech is dead then. Elon killed it. Rewrite the US Constitution
influxmoment··on Waymo's collision avoidance testing
Hacker News is superficial negative group think. Inverse hacker news is where it's at. Then you can predict the success of startups like Dropbox and Coinbase
influxmoment··on Tesla FSD data is getting worse, according to beta tester self-reports
Is your experience the norm though? Uncut YouTube videos show a reliable FSD in many conditions
influxmoment··on Tesla FSD data is getting worse, according to beta tester self-reports
For the Tesla driver assistance specifically (non FSD) it's more advanced and reasonable reliable. I find it helps a great deal to reduce fatigue on long drives. It is nearly flawless on highways and watching to see the car is safe is much less fatiguing than a constant centering and monitoring the accelerator. Seeing the car is the right speed is less mental energy than constant control of power to get the right speed
