If it turns out the universe is holographic, then you have the same bound. This might just be enforment of the holographic principle...
I appear to have attracted the trolls, which is ok. That happens when you stand up to them. I don't tolerate bullies going ignored. I'm serious, but not as upset as you may be concerned.
> I understand humor might be too foreign and loose for people on HN but trust me, there was no maliciousness in their comment.
Adding your own mockery doesn't help with my perception of the situation.
Malice isn't required to do harm and it's absence doesn't really change my opinion on the situation.
I find it unclear if you comment is amused or critical. Either way it isn't horribly constructive. The quoted sentence doesn't actually generate ambiguity in context of the conversation and whole message.
Your emotional reaction to the syntax of that message is your responsibility to manage.
It is possible you are genuinely complementing how they successfully communicated their amazement and how it was difficult to incorporate into their experience and world view using this grammatical construction, in which case I apologize but raise my concern that more context is needed to discern this from unwarranted criticism.
The only way to make sure a system can handle components hard crashing, is if hard crashing is a normal thing that happens all the time.
All glory to the chaos monkey!
At a corporate level, it is contractually almost identical to insurance, with the product being sold liability for that security, not the security itself.
We gave AI legal personhood in the 1800s and we were doomed from there
I personally think the singularity happened back in the 90s and its just been very disappointing instead of the rapture that was imagined.
Vaccines don't only protect you.
I went on an immunosuppressant during covid, i was suposed to re-up MMR beforehand, but we had a major nationwide vaccine shortage at the time (all plants re-tasked to produce covid vaccines) so i couldn't. This doesn't seem a fun way to die. I guess I just mask up and hope.
It seems like the actual value of gold is that it is useless, and thus not used up, and all the easy gold is extracted. We could just use numbers instead.
Is a start.
It gets complicated because we are getting to the point where using signal is itself being seen as probably cause for investigation: https://kmlawfirm.com/2023/02/28/its-not-what-you-say-its-ho... so I encourage everybody who doesn't need such security to use signal anyways, if only to add protection to the vulnerable.

They hide the fun stuff at the bottom. Solar and wind don't count!
> I know many interviewers also didn't get it, and it became just "do you know the trick to my puzzle". That pattern of failure is a good reason to deprecate white board interviews, not "I don't write on a whiteboard when i program in real life".
Do I see others doing so? sadly no.
I feel like a lot of the replies to my comment didn't read to the end, I agree the implementation is bad. The whiteboard just isn't actually the problem. The interviewers are.
Unless they change mentality to "did this candidate show me the skills i am looking for" instead of "did they solve puzzle" the method doesn't matter.
Folks getting mad about whiteboard interviews is a meme at this point. It misses the point. We CANT test you effectively on your programming skillbase. So we test on a more relevant job skill, like can you have a real conversation (with a whiteboard to help) about how to solve the problem.
It isn't that your interviewer knew all the languages, but that the language didn't matter.
I didn't get this until I was giving interviews. The instructions on how to give them are pretty clear. The goal isn't to "solve the puzzle" but instead to demonstrate you can reason about it effectively, communicate your knowledge and communicate as part of problem solving.
I know many interviewers also didn't get it, and it became just "do you know the trick to my puzzle". That pattern of failure is a good reason to deprecate white board interviews, not "I don't write on a whiteboard when i program in real life".
They removed SMS to preserve that safety and security. It isn't a for profit business. We are the ones motivated to help them get adopted. if donations don't correlate with increased users Signal actually can't tolerate growth.
Do whatsapp or telegram have the same models? Can you tell if you are the customer or the product with them?
Programming gave me "I forgot I have a body" levels of engagement with a problem. It was a way to actually find relief from pain. My addiction to programming was very useful in my development.
I was lucky in so many ways. My pain wasn't caused by the kinematics of my body, instead it was a heart condition, cancer, Celiac and Crohn's and I have managed to cure a nontrivial part of it over the years (heart surgery, diet change, immunosuppressants).
Ultimately i do not recommend the "cause yourself so much pain you seek refuge in flow state and become an expert" method. It results in a lot of maladaptive behaviors, damaged relationships and needing a lot of therapy (but also the money to pay for the therapy).

I'll be blunt and say I don't trust governments to "do the right thing" so the only way past this is to normalize using it for all use cases and doing so protects vulnerable people.
The other type of Biden/Harris supporter has the privilege of time and energy to spend examining the situation critically and recognizes them as just supporting further corporate control behind the guise of bureaucracy instead of "strong men". But they vote/evangalize for them anyway because at least they don't actively advocate for harming people out of spite.
