I hope its less because of war and more because its better to not be so dependent on other countries, similar to how Europe is trying to rely less on the US for digital infrastructure.

I also feel like the boomers offshoring everything to China in the 70's is one of the reasons things are worse off nowadays, but I digress.

I know some of the original Bukkit devs moved on to work at Mojang

I learned this when trying to put together a Lego Baneblade, there was a BrickLink Studio file which contained the fully built BaneBlade, but the instructions were not put together for it. I did the automatically generated instructions for each part of the Baneblade, but they were all over the place, including instructions to place a brick after bricks on top of it. Still got it built though.

I'm glad to see this is a bipartisan issue that both sides agree on. As a country we need to start focusing more on the issues we have in common and work towards solutions to them.

I wish Nothing was supported by Verizon, would love to try one of their phones.

Same. Oneplus showed that the pop up camera was a perfectly workable approach for the front camera instead of using a notch.

Until they inevitable use Google, and it shows a big popup saying something like "Hey there you should use Chrome its way better and faster, click this button to get it" and then they end up with Chrome. Its basically how Chrome got such a large share of the market despite default browsers like Safari and IE/Edge.

Just have to take a look at subreddits like /r/myboyfriendisai to see how astonishingly quick this is being adopted by people. So many people are starting to look to AI for companionship. The future is getting stranger and stranger.

Another reason why no one should use OneDrive and ignore all the damn prompts by Windows telling you to use it.

There seems to be a team sport mentality with AI topic in HN these days. Almost feels like people are picking sides, and thus not being very thoughtful or rational.

Chinese car brands are eating the lunch of all the European automakers. They will need to do something to reverse the tide before its too late.

IIRC the US did plan in case either Japan or Germany somehow became capable of bombing the states. Some factories had their roofs painted to make them blend in with the surroundings, others were built out of reinforced concrete to make them bomb proof

I wonder if Bees also show similar behavior

I remember driving a Ford rental I was given when my car was being repaired that had the same issue with emergency stopping when it absolutely shouldn't be.

iirc there was an incident not too long ago where a van crashed head on when trying to pass another truck on a 2 way road. The lane assist put the van back into the passing lane when he tried to get back into right lane, causing the collision.

Would be great if you could port this to Firefox

This right here. Scalpers are offering nothing, they are parasites in a functional capitalist system.

Gleba was the only planet I really struggled with getting started on, mainly due to the spoilage mechanic. Felt like I was always manually 'jump starting' things at first because something got spoiled and stuck somewhere. Once I finally got a good production loop going though things got much easier.

The main thing I took away from it, was to not be afraid to burn anything that can be burned if things got overproduced, otherwise they would get stuck on the belts and become spoiled. My end setup had lots of looping belts and sorters to dispose of excess production of spoilable products

Oh nice, that makes finding a flight on a 747 so much easier! Sounds like I have an excuse to visit Germany next year.

Guess I probably wont get a chance to fly on one, flying on the 747 was on my bucket list.

You definitely make a good point there. The job market is becoming impossible to navigate, and people will become desperate. Bills need to be paid and families need to be fed, if someone loses a job in tech, they could be easily tempted to 'hacking' others nowadays. Its becoming trivially easy to do so thanks the things you mentioned, and if you target others in other countries not allied with the US you could even possibly get away with never getting punished even if caught.

I blame Sam Altman and all the other AI bros for this and everything else in consumer tech increasing in price

And NCR from my experience.

Good to see. The job market is screwed right now, and this is one big step to fixing things.

The Soviets were one of the few countries where Women were employed on the front lines during the war. They were tank drivers, anti aircraft gunners, pilots, snipers.

A famous unit of all women pilots known as the 'Night Witches' made a name for themselves during the war https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Night_Witches

Anyone who preys on people who are desperate and hurting are certainly some of the worst though.

He says that exchanging arguments and having a debate only works when the two arguing parties share a foundation. The debate’s purpose is to reconcile a measurable difference of opinion.

I've observed this in a lot of internet arguments, but have not been able to put it into words until you said this. It feels like everyone is more concerned about 'winning' the argument more than anything else.

This is definitely a concern that needs to be addressed if we want to see more small businesses again. It's a big risk not having health insurance.

Of course everybody wants to live in big cities in the US. But rent is very cheap in dying small towns in the middle of nowhere.

Another reason why WFH should become more of the norm, it will help solve the issue of expensive housing an rent since it means people could live in these less expensive towns and still be able to work.

With how many desperate software engineers there are on the market right now looking for a job, there are going to be scumbags out there trying to take advantage of the desperation. Such people are the worst of the worst of humanity.

Stay vigilant out there everyone.
