One kind of pushing your hands against your ears is ignoring problems that other people are talking about when you're not comfortable with hearing about them.

I'm not talking about the people who you think are "adults" (I assume you mean people whose opinions mostly matches yours), I mean everyone. They wouldn't talk about this if nobody was listening.

And people wouldn't listen to them if they talked about things that are not problems.

I agree with the main concern DHH correctly points out here, that some spaces (mostly inhabited by leftists) are currently calling a lot of people nazis who clearly are not nazis. And they're quite obviously gaslighting the idea that hurting these people is ok.

What people like DHH et al seem to be completely blind about is that the right has been doing this for decades, if not centuries. That is not justification for the left to do the same thing, but at least the other side should acknowledge that and try to move on instead of just perpetuating the cycle.

When people stop reacting to them.

An AI board would certainly fire a CEO of a $20 billion company who wastes their time doing little tweaking like that. I mean even if there'd be a perfect AI that does something beyond slop consistently, this would still be a waste of time for a CEO.

At least if this is true at all, which should be perhaps doubted a little bit.

Arab nations have made invasions to Europe on a regular basis throughout history. That practically stopped when Israel was created.

Israel has been an amazing success for Western security.

Ukraine War started 3 years ago in 2022, not two years ago. Or 11 years ago in 2014, if we count from the illegal annexation of Crimea.

The Gaza war will be a footnote to the actual war happening in Europe. When the terrorist attack of October 7 happened, my first sentiment was that Putin will be ecstatic that half of the world's attention will be shifted away from his crimes. A conspiracy minded person might think this was not an accident.

A 4" Android 15 phone that is seems to be relatively premium.

A nice contrast to the giants Apple just released.

The idea that either of these two would live for another 80 years is without a doubt the worst thing I have read in the last 5 years, or perhaps ever.

You are going to indent your code anyway, so you might as well give the indentation some meaning.

Autoformatters came and fixed that problem. Nobody (except python, haskell and nim coders probably) wastes time indenting code anymore, you save and your code is indented. Nowadays, code that relies on whitespace and has no ending delimiters (like nim and python) gets awkward because the formatters have less information to go on. If your rust or typescript code formats to bad indent or none at all, you have an error.

I have used coding agents with great success. So in some way I'm building useful things using AI, and the people who created those agents absolutely created something extremely useful.

Searching through hacker news to verify this isn't so easily done so yes, I will have to concede to call mine merely a claim as well.

Looks more like the opposite of what you claim is happening. Are you doing a "big lie", i.e. repeat an obvious untruth so that people will start believing it?

For what it's worth, the first Tesla model that ever got software upgrades is still getting them. That's the Model S from 2012.

I suggest Cosmic Desktop (currently at alpha7) for anyone looking for a hyprland -kind of experience but with a bit more desktop feeling.

It's already quite stable even though it's an alpha version, possibly thanks to being implemented in Rust. I've been using it daily on my personal laptop since its release in April. No big problems, some missing features and tweakability though.

Absolutely. Kinda of the best of many worlds, because it has what looks like an indentation-based syntax but actually blocks are delimited by start and end keywords. This makes it possible (unlike, say, python) to programmatically derive correct code formatting more reliably.

And no pointless semicolons.

Ok, so I checked it out slightly more and noticed that the omarchy installation script enables the chaotix.cx repo, which contains packages automatically built from AUR. I.e. packages contributed by practically anyone. So you'll be trusting not just one unknown set of people (AUR) but a completely second one too (chaotic.cx).

Omarchy enables all this silently with pacman -U --noconfirm.

This is probably fine for a hobbyist, and this is what people in the Linux world generally do, but also constitutes a pretty bad supply side attack vector. Then again, not significantly worse than what things like npm/node do.

On a positive note, using the concept of migrations in a tool like this is neat.

Well it's not worse than picking up a random usb stick on the street and running the exe from it

Here's a port to NixOS which I haven't had the time to try out yet but will try to soon: https://github.com/henrysipp/omarchy-nix

CBOR has always seemed to me like the most promising data format for efficient data transfer. Somewhat weird how little use it has.

CBOR is just a standard data format. Why would it need an ad? What are they selling here?

Lenovo X1 Carbon g13 gets you close to 12h. Also similar results for other laptops using the same CPU, such as Asus Zenbook S14.

Does it really? I had an AMD framework at one point, and I seem to remember 5 hour use times on battery, max.

As a Rust enjoyer, I wouldn't get into Java at least without being forced to (better is not good enough in this case), but Kotlin seems neat. The only thing that has been blocking trying it out is that the non-IntelliJ experience has been rather poor.

Perhaps you just didn't give my comment a fair shake and were reading it wrong.

But I don't think parent comment to mine was "outrageously combative", I just thought it was a bit silly to claim a 100% conversion rate.

You can consider your perfect conversion rate now broken; I tried jujutsu on a personal project and found it to be a hassle without any upsides.

I believe your perception is flawed because the people who just try it and throw it away don't tend to talk about it because it's not popular enough to warrant even a twitter comment. This is the first time I got the impulse to share this but only because you claimed a rather silly 100% conversion rate.

Great that these things are studied, but the science reporting keeps repeating the same frustrating mistake: They never tell what dosage the researchers were studying.

Consider these following claims: "People who use alcohol could double their risk" and "People who drink a bottle of whiskey every day double their risk". Completely equivalent, right?

Dunno if this answers the question, but I can potentially make new stuff.

Russia can obviously lose this war. Larger militaries lose their offensive wars not every time, but all the time.

It's difficult to remember a more just war after WW2 than what Ukraine is waging against the aggressor Russia. Ukraine needs and truly deserves our spiritual, monetary and military support in this heroic effort.

Like every day after their incursion and illegal occupation of Crimea, Russia is alone to blame for this war, and they can stop the war any point by simply leaving Ukraine. Perhaps Putin can't, but Putin is not the only Russian on this planet. Just the worst one.
