Re:Ask HN: What’s a good laptop for software development at around $2k?

I know you said you dont want mac, but I recommend apple only for the hardware. If you want linux, you can use Asahi Linux. Its in the beta stages but it allows your to harness mac’s superior hardware to develop on Linux. Apple is proven to make long lasting products that meet all the requirements you’ve list. Recommend M1 in particular, better than most intel and ARM laptops of its generation.

Why is the title justice league? I believe the previous title was more helpful

I’m pretty sure all the people who are criticizing the database design haven’t read the ending. The article isn’t about the schema, it’s about helping those entry level programmers

Seems like Joe Liemandt is killing American jobs. I wonder how many other people like him are out there destroying the american economy

I'm sorry that happened to you and also glad you're in a better place! :)
Some of my classes use LockDown browser as well and these are computer science courses so there was a lot of pushback due to privacy concerns, so I can sympathize with your viewpoint. Although a majority of students don't cheat, it's still awful that the behavior of a few dictates how the others are perceived.
Re:Software is eating the car

A bit of a naive question I admit, but how do you even test hundreds millions of lines of code to ensure they all fit perfectly when different ECUs have different suppliers, and by customizing the car you can have different types of chips? Just curious how integration of all the components is done.
Also, there seem to be a lot of recalls due to software issues, so I wonder if there's any open source or anything close to it that has tools such as CI or VCS for newer electric car companies that use ECUs from different OEMs?

I'll be honest, the title of the announcement made by the justice department looks like a news article title written by journalists and not by a government office. I have nothing against journalists or attorneys, the subject just doesn't look right.

I think there's a difference between "university" libraries and "public" libraries in that university libraries are private for students who've paid their tuition (and faculty/staff), while public libraries are for the general public. I don't mean to be snarky, please let me know if you disagree with how the terminology works.
Edit: I also think it may be for safety reasons, they want only those authorized to be there to have access. This is most seen in closed universities where most/all buildings require IDs.

Algorithmic Engineers? CS is essentially the study of automatic algorithmic processes that scale, so something along those lines.
