Calling this AI slop would be generous. If we made a list of the things wrong with it we would be here all day. Nothing has an effect on redline RPM, you can create compression and turbo combos that would instantly grenade an engine, the preset “super car” has 200hp?

The only thing it illustrates is the authors lack of understanding.

I know this is about the Japan and not the US, but software patent law has been incompatible with traditional IP protection in the US for a long time and it really doesn't make sense in the current age.

I wonder if you think other OSes are any different?

TempleOS is the only thing that comes to mind that doesn't fit your description and it's not practically useful.

Any sufficiently large codebase is a mix of ideas and concepts implemented by different people with different priorities over a large timespan and if you can fit the entire thing in your head it's not very interesting or complex.

Oh my lord. I'm sorry fellow tortured soul.

Only one drawer? I think I have a problem. Maybe I'm a hoarder.

If you preorder I can get you the same thing for half the price. It just sometimes takes a few years for delivery.

This isn't surprising at all if you have every had an interaction with Fedex.

Python's packaging system is worse, but Javascripts packages / standard libraries are far worse than Python.

In python managing packages is a pain and there are too many package manager options, but for the most part there are good libraries, and chances are you don't even need one because the standard libraries are so good and mature.

In Javascript NPM is really all you need (even if yarn is a bit nicer), but you're gonna need to install 50 packages just to get a basic boiler plate app going and the quality of said packages is not always great.

This code base has been sold like 3x now and is still around.

I like the "gun to the head" heuristic but I would probably rephrase it to be something like "If you only had 24hrs to solve this or the world would come to an end".

The thing is the production was already artificially limited by the government. So as the article says one way to increase production is just to allow for additional production.

No, it's mainstream pop culture. As the author alludes it's trendy even for straight people to emulate gay culture.

So what's taking you so long?!

Nobody seems to have mentioned the MySQL licensing kerfuffle that got it pulled from most main stream Linux distros. For some of us this was the nail in MySQL coffin at a time when Postgres was becomming easier to manage.

Facebook ads are like 90% scams. I don't even understand how any of them get accepted. It's also night and day difference from Instagram which is also owned by Meta, I don't get it.

The problem with modern concrete falling apart prematurely is usually the use of rebar as a reinforcement.

and the weird staggered header design was a mistake from the very first boards that has just continued to carry on through the years.

For me it's more about lack of connection. My loneliest times are when I'm at home with my family, but we're just occupying the same space. If I actually make an effort to connect by sharing what's going on in my life or talking about the future then it's a lot more positive.

Compared to what?

Dad?

Given the cost and availability of RPi at the moment this is an expensive option.

I've spent some time trying to learn FreeCAD and ultimately decided that the cost of Fusion 360 pays for itself several times over in productivity compared to trying to deal with how clunky and difficult FreeCAD is.

Alternatively PCB stuff in Fusion is pretty horrible and IMO worse than Eagle was before they all but abandon it and started shoe honing it into Fusion. Meanwhile KiCad continues to get better and more feature rich.

If C++03 is old code then you're in one of the outer circles. The code base I'm working on has "Old style" C function declarations that predate C89.

"The shooter was 4.4 miles away, a distance so great, the Earth’s rotation came into play."

It's kind of telling of how much Hacker news moderation has fallen off when the only comment adding any real discussion (aaron695) is down voted into oblivion while lame jokes get up-voted.

Or they could just be trying to connect from a laptop! Or a mobile device that doesn't understand how to parse this sort of WIFI connection code. Is this any sort of standard? Do Kindle devices support it?

Electron is kind of a non starter because the hard part isn't the JS interpreter it's the renderer. Node alternative? Fairly trivial, but then you're missing NPM, and pretty much everything else that makes Node not a toy language.

I feel like a lot of great programming talent has been wasted by very smart engineers who felt the pain of their current ticketing system and spent years building countless startups only to end up with something occasionally marginally better than Trac (2004).

Why would miners just move somewhere else?

The title is inflammatory if the events in the article are true. They were arrested for willful trespassing and then released shortly after. Hardly news worthy.
