nu2ycombinator··on BYD to offer Tesla-like self-driving tech in all models for free
I used Waymo in SF 6 months and it pulled behind a parked car, thinking it is traffic waiting to turn left. Also Waymo drive feels like drive of a 90 year old non confident driver, where as Tesla's FSD is in another level, drives just like a taxi driver.
nu2ycombinator··on Firing programmers for AI will destroy everything
Dejavu, Complaints on using AI sounds very similar to early times of offshoring/outsourcing. At the end of the day, corporates go for most profitable solution, so AI is going to replace some percentage of headcount.

nu2ycombinator··on AI is the reason interviews are harder now
I think purpose of asking Leetcode hard questions in interviews is to reject if someone solves on the spot, and proceed with someone made reasonable progress and well thought out about the problem
nu2ycombinator··on AI is the reason interviews are harder now
Post seems more of a marketing for UltraCode than establishing the connection between AI and Interviews getting harder. Even before AI there were instances where Leetcode Hard questions were asked in interviews that are highly unlikely to solve in 30 mins, unless seen that Q before.

nu2ycombinator··on Mindfulness and meditation can worsen depression and anxiety
"meditation is a religious practice" this statement of your is enough to prove that you are motivated by theory that your book is the only one and everything else is false or satonic. Meditation will really help you, you should try.

nu2ycombinator··on Indian police open case against hundreds in Kashmir for using VPN
Both are completely different. In colonial government, people does not have equal rights. Britishers more interested in taking riches to their country than interested in welfare of the people. In this current scenario, every citizen has equal rights and can become PM too.

P.S. Your English is very deep.

nu2ycombinator··on Indian police open case against hundreds in Kashmir for using VPN
May be this will help you understand the difference. Anti-national != criticize.

If you refresh your past memory, kishan kanhaiya raise slogans saying we will break India and he is not in jail.

Every one has right to express their opinion but judicial system will take its course. Govt cannot put people in jail just because someone criticized them. That was the point I am making. I can't make it any clearer than this for you

It is not tyranny, when it involves terrorism. There were multiple demands for secession in the past across Punjab, assam and all were resolved through dialog. Problem with Kashmir is, it Foreign Funded terrorism and there were attempts for discussions in the past and which didn't work
nu2ycombinator··on Indian police open case against hundreds in Kashmir for using VPN
Seems like your comments motivated mainly based on anti BJP than the topic in discussion. Just to keep your mind at peace, From this point onwards, I 100% support BJP.
nu2ycombinator··on Indian police open case against hundreds in Kashmir for using VPN
Misleading Title. It is not about using VPN but about propagating rumors.

This is a law in India, as there were instances of riots caused by social media rumor.

Actual News ----------- The FIR has been registered while taking cognisance of the social media posts by miscreants by using different VPNs, which are propagating rumours with regard to the current security scenario in the Kashmir valley, secessionist ideology and glorifying terrorists, the police said.

I am young Techie from India too and I totally support it.

nu2ycombinator··on VPNs Are Absolutely a Solution to a Policy Problem
I am trying to understand here, what more information ISPs can get other than they have access now? Does this policy let them do man middle attack? Can they access my SSL internet data too?
nu2ycombinator··on Java REST framework Dropwizard 1.0 released
Well there are no hard and fast rules. Any set of best practices are opinionated. You can have different of opinions if they are not suited for your use case. All the REST frameworks you found are designed around the those ideas. For making your APIs rest you do not need any framework you can design your APIs along those guidelines. Again how far your apis need to be REST complaint again it is upto common sense.
nu2ycombinator··on Java REST framework Dropwizard 1.0 released
REST is like set of best practices to design API end points like define resource as end point and map standard HTTP methods to certain operations. This makes it easy and leads to a standard in API designing. And underlying technology can be RPC or servlets too. For example define end point "/user" and client knows how to create update or delete user where as before Rest these used to be different end points for each of these operations or have to specify the kind of operation

nu2ycombinator··on Imagine yourself starting, not finishing
"tldr: to beat procrastination, a simple trick is to imagine starting the task as opposed to finishing it"

- Isn't mean not to plan ahead of what do, which means not able to finish the task effectively. Of course it is better than postponing the task.
