Sounds like we could use a psychohistory expert.
I hate this "it sounds ridiculous and it is BUT it could just be 4D chess and here's why..."
Stop justifying this crap. It's just the drivel of a decaying mind.
Potentially lots poopies.
It really does have a very similar feeling.
Those Newton commercials are awesome, I love that dark humor.
What I've really gotten out of this is that I'd like to learn how to use a (proper) meat thermometer when I make steaks.
Are you suggesting that tattoos are uglifying the world or that an innovation like this device is? I am no defender of capitalism but I don't see the connection.
Just thinking about that makes me a bit queasy.
In my experience, as others have said, the shoulder is probably the least painful area to get tattooed, to the point where I also wouldn't call it painful. I'm halfway through one right now which runs from my chest/armpit over my shoulder and upper arm, and onto my back, and the shoulder was the only real reprieve. The armpit, chest, arm, and back (in that order) were certainly painful to varying degrees, even if they were tolerable.
I also got one not long ago, a round dial about 3 inches across, on my quads a few inches above my knee that was exceedingly painful, an area where the pain charts seem to suggest is not usually painful.
The most painful for me is when when the outline is done and they go back to do the shading/texturing and the skin is already angry. That's a good time to stop if the tattoo is sufficiently large.
I wonder why the say "appears to have had," is that an assumption or was it stated somewhere? Without an offline backup, it would indeed be a very serious problem, more than it already is.
"Reading books is overrated" -- what an HN take. You've gotta be kidding me.
I started learning software in the early 2010s and I read a lot of software books like the ones mentioned in the article. I continued reading them as the years went on, but the last one I bought was probably 4 or 5 years ago. Naturally, I probably don't need books as much as I used to -- I can generally pick up something new and know where to find what I need to find, "learning to learn" and all that. I also think they are better for foundational knowledge; many times the books become outdated very quickly. So if I was gonna attempt to write a database or learn distributed programming theory, I'd probably pick up a book, but if I wanted to learn a specific tool (or most languages) I'd probably stick to the web.
Same way they do it now. Cold applying, word of mouth/referrals, networking events, etc. Personally my first industry job in like 2012 originated from a networking mixer that I showed up to after seeing a promotional online. My unpaid internship/mentorship before that was a word of mouth from my mom asking her friend's husband which I suppose might count as a connection.
When you zoom in to the street map level, the planes are practically invisible with their color and thin borders. Pretty neat though, that's a lot to load and keep smooth.
Maybe this applies more towards adults, but I don't think the correct answer for kids is only "just have self-control," something kids are notorious for not having. Certainly there's a lot of parental responsibility here but we can simultaneously hold companies responsible for their part too.
If we want to compare it to alcohol/cigarettes, then kids shouldn't be allowed to use this either.
Really ironic given that they pulled the rug on general aviation usage.
Same here. I quickly learned that if you merely ask questions about it's understanding or plans, it starts looking for alternatives because my questioning is interpreted as rejection or criticism, rather than just taking the question at face value. So I often (not always) have to caveat questions like that too. It's really been like that since before Claude Code or Codex even rolled around.
It's just strange because that's a very human behavior and although this learns from humans, it isn't, so it would be nice if it just acted more robotic in this sense.
> Yes I can. I even provided an example for exactly that: `[4]any` can hold references to any type.
And now you've lost type checking. `(&'static str, bool, u64, f64)` is not the same as `[4]any`.
> A lot of things are useful, doesn't mean they are used for that useful case most of the time.
I'm sure you have vast insights into what most people do most of the time.
> Go has wrapped and typed errors, covering exactly that.
Sure, "Go has X because it gives you the tools to reimplement it yourself another way" is true of most anything you can think of.
I've only written a handful of production projects in Go so my experience isn't very deep, but I find the syntax to be the ugliest of any PL. The mixed capitalizing based on function privacy, to me, is awful (among other things, i.e. personally I loathe curly brace initialization/definition). I'm sure you get used to it? It doesn't help that it just feels very hacked together, from the wonky generics, the lack of useful types like tuples and enums, the bolted on module system, to the annoying error handling, to say the least.
That said, compile times are great, the concurrency is dead simple, it's performant, and it's still easy to be really productive in it so it's not like I'd never consider it. Many other languages have many of the same issues, anyway.
Zed is the only editor I've been using for maybe two months or so. But I find the extensions still sorely lacking and the API not extensive enough yet either. Still, I really love the design as well as how AI was builtin, and some more of the niche differences.
Anecdotally, my cats meow at me a lot. But they're my cats (others live in the house and help care for them). I also meow back more than anyone else. In fact, I might be the only one to do so. :)
Anything to avoid stricter gun legislation. This type of incident will be considered an unfortunate but necessary sacrifice despite how dystopian it really is.
How do you pay with PayPal if not putting in your credit card or bank details? link is a pretty well-known online wallet and much simpler to use than PayPal.
It's $16k for a 1-person household. Here's the rest:
$21,150 (2), $26,650 (3), $32,150 (4), $37,650 (5), $43,150 (6), $48,650 (7), $54,150 (8)
Also the median household income in NM is ~$62,000 according to the Census, which is already under the 400% threshold for just a one person household.

Working with one of those right now, on my two-person team, ironically.
I am on a team of 2 people with a dedicated manager. That is, the manager does not write code and is not even really technical.
It is awful, send help.
My grandpa (father's father) grew up in Rochester and that was the first time I visited New York for a family reunion, way back in the early aughts. Kodak was the major employer in town then; he and practically everyone he knew either worked there, had dealings with them in some form, or knew many others who did. When we went, I had the pleasure of touring the place and hearing plenty of stories from my gramps and our family. Good times.
This was envisioned by the movie Interstellar where the opening scene shows them chasing an old autonomous Indian Air Force drone that had been flying for years, ostensibly after that agency ceased to exist. I'm sure it's been in other media as well but that's what comes to mind here.
Anyway, it should be interesting to see where this goes in the future.
