Is a volcano described as dormant (dormire, literally sleep) also inaccurate and deeply problematic? BTW, it's not anthropomorphized as sleep has existed long before humans.

"Sleep" is just used in their context to describe a non-interactive mode and they didn't lean heavily into zoomorphic - I think you mean - parallels.

You're grinding an axe on a single term. What is your broader hangup with them using the term "sleep"?

> Does their LLM "die" if it can't perform the function described?

We're reaching an age where LMGTFY should now be Let Me LLM That For You. Have you tried asking an LLM this question about the article? I believe it answers it very well.

I recall C++ OOP being the new hotness when I started out and C was always contrasted as the old & busted example. Kind of the "Everything-as-an-object will simplify everything" phase. Windows MFC was the new way, then STL.

Java WORA write once, run anywhere was definitely a thing when it came out. Java Applets came out of the woodwork and were the WASM of their day. Even Cisco ran Java for their router UI for a while, which was painful.

More recently, HN went through a period about 10 years ago where every other article ended in " ... written in Go".

The mantra may not have rhymed with "rewrite X in Y" but the spirit was there.

It does seem like a highly antagonistic way of working or perhaps I'm just naive.

If your only goal is to maintain a performance lead on your peers, you either need to gain and keep an advantage or find ways to actively make your coworkers disadvantaged (or both). And if you're already doing 1) then 2) isn't a far stretch.

> would you like to work on a team full of people like you?

If their team is already like this, what choice do they have? It's a prisoners dilemma where everyone else is defecting and I'm the sole cooperator.

IMO the onus for solving this is on the business owner, either through establishing a knowledge sharing culture or more comprehensive performance evaluation that rewards these innovations.

On of their main concerns is the social graph created from following/friending.

HN doesn't have this.

> since the model has taken my place for the most part

Hah, you realize the same thing is going on in your boss's head right? The pie chart of Things-I-Need-stronglikedan-For just shrank tiny bit...

Not without my knowledge or your knowledge sure. But I'd bet there's significant percentage of the population who is tired of thinking about permission popups and just hit yes yes YES to get the App started. Especially if it forces retries before going forward.

I think they're counting on these popups wearing people out.

After GDPR made these incessant annoying cookie popups mandatory, I just robotically click any button to dismiss it as fast as possible. Some website could probably write "Give root access" in that box and I'd probably click it without thinking.

> when an app is available on both web and native mobile, the native mobile version is significantly better

Did you read the article? One of the author's main points is this is a deliberate result by vendors.

This is the 1st link posted in /r/unitedairlines anytime someone mentions "starlink". One use-case better covered by https://unitedstarlinktracker.com/ is the upfront log that shows a quick swath of airports that might receive and depart starlink equipped planes. I can CTRL-F -> "RDU" and know immediately my chance of checking this out (not much).

Would it be hard to produce a pie chart showing top 10 airports with most starlink planes arriving/departing?

Maybe the opponents consider it a foot in the door; a wedge that can be expanded gradually to include lower tiers at lower percentages AKA the beginning of a WA State Income Tax. There are not few 400k households in Seattle.

The majority of states have one so it's not that big a deal, but it'll be less often said "I'm going to turn down this higher SF offer for Seattle b/c of lower COL...".

I'm not sure where the next refuge will be. Austin? Memphis?

Trying to win this from your couch, I see...

> A flathead screwdriver should bend like rubber if someone tries to use it as a prybar.

Better not let me near your JSON files then. I pound in wall anchors with the bottom of my drill if my hammer is not within arms reach.

My "family" is multiple devices. M networks (hotel, airport, lounge) and N devices means O(M * N) wifi setups, so carrying a known 200g router means I only have to do O(M+N) setups.

But yeah I also have P family so O(M * P * N) would be a headache.

There are variants of this kind that double as and look like a battery charger (which you should claim) but can also repeat and NAT a wireless signal (which you should helpfully omit). Rumor says mudiv2 but I've never used that so can't confirm.

I tell the juniors it stands for Correction of Employment. Keeps them on their toes.

Yeah, all this chatter about technologies and processes that could have saved this: you don't think someone in all of Korean government knew about that?

The problem is more likely culture, hierarchy or corruption. Guaranteed several principal security architects have been raising the alarm on this internally along with much safer, redundant, secure alternatives that came with an increased cost. And decision makers who had a higher rank/social/networking advantage shot it down. Maybe the original storage designer was still entrenched there and sabotaging all other proposals out of pride. Or there's an unspoken business relationship with the another department providing resources for that data center that generates kickbacks.

Assuming nobody knows how to do an offsite backup or is plain ignorant of risk over there is arrogant.

Yeah, clickbait title for some of us. Should be "Advanced Age Simulation Suit".

Is learning a language even a thing anymore with $Internal_or_external_LLM_helper plugin available for every IDE? I haven't found syntax lookups to be that much a concern anymore and any boneheaded LLM suggestions are trivial to detect/fix.

    ... if your priority is clear, ad-free, conversational responses

This will not be its final form, though. I just hope when they get around to monetizing we have a choice between a free, ad-supported option or paid non-ads service.

I think the above is a good idea of what's wrong with python (and Go), because in your example the list comp is evaluated in what seems to be this order:

    FOURTH-> print([THIRD-> v*v for v in FIRST-> reversed(a) if SECOND-> v*v % 2 == 0])

Which is all over the place. I'd rather see:

    a = [1, 2, 3, 4]
    a = reversed(a)
    a = [v*v for v in a]
    a = [w for w in a if a % 2 == 0]
    print(a)

Your comment made me chuckle. It was an interesting inclusion, considering she appears to be in an industry not usually associated with Zig enthusiasts (entertainment). I'd have thought they individually had enough financial independence that a solidarity statement wasn't required, but it's neat to share that your partner is excited about the things you're excited about.

> Perhaps something for @Dang to investigate.

Then email dang? Why bother asking us? We don't have any of this data.

Good to hear! Are the comparable areas of similar population density? I'm wondering what incremental steps (non-partisan hopefully) can be brought to the Bay Area to slowly move it towards a similar environment.

Assuming these terms are all correctly spelled, this has to be the shortest sentence I've understood the least of on HN.

Guess I've got some googling to do.

Not sure why this was downvoted, but I also assumed they were referring to this scene, the Hammond + Grant + Sadler + Malcolm + Gennaro lunch debate in the original.

And in turn, Microsoft blames the EU for forcing them to allow an external vendor having kernel level access https://www.euronews.com/next/2024/07/22/microsoft-says-eu-t.... Lot of finger-pointing going around here.

> no exact match but this site has a bunch of strings with most of the same characters

I suspect it's something similar, but more like partial string match which may score as "close enough to display". I get consistent results with the same hex string - dealerships - but if I quote it (exact match), I get no matches.

Repro'd in an incognito window so it's not a history thing. 1st 3 of OPs strings if anyone else is experimenting (remove spaces):

    3344cfb4 78ead204a49b88 1da6079adf8a

Shoot, depending on crawling, this may end up causing this page to match. I'm injecting spaces above to deter this, but maybe it'll also prove out the partial string match theory...

We carry a physical analog of this in real life: work badge. My policy-enforced visible picture identifies who I am and that I match that photo and also gatekeeps me into and out of places I'm allowed to enter.

> terminology implies that the two concepts, authentication and authorization, are more closely related than they are ... There are some links ... because what you can do is tied to who you are. But they're also very different

AuthZ being entirely dependent on AuthN is not "some links". That's an unbreakable dependency.

I can agree that these two words being a single letter apart are easy to conflate though. But as they are related, we're more likely to increase training/education around the concept rather than rename them.

Probably every single health or wellness "Find a Provider" portal lists them A-Z. That's a multi-billion dollar industry. If I was Dr. Zachary Zane, I'd change my name.

Or that an online bookseller would try to rent out compute.
