The state.

“The government” (what we would call “the executive”) being equated to the state as a whole is a uniquely American concept, likely because the word “state” already has a different meaning in the federalist sense.

I do not understand why people would rather play into the delusions of a clearly mentally unwell individual for months and year on end — when they well know it's bullshit — under the guise of this somehow being in the interests of said individual and/or being fun. This, to me, is the height of selfishness clocked in disingenuous empathy.

The widespread normalisation of this behaviour, and the subsequent ~~thought~~ now real policing around the issue, is a clear mark of a deep societal ill.

Now you're getting it.

git-worktree has been a thing for a decade+ and AI agents seem to be using them just fine in my experience. This is a solved problem.

If the last couple of weeks are anything to go by, I'd strongly argue the quality of discourse on any ICE/Trump/Tariffs-related topics have been at exactly Reddit-level, along with the most upvoted opinions mirroring those on Reddit almost to a tee.

I vaguely remember checking one of those ICE posts out the other day, and there was not a single comment going against the grain that was neither flagged nor heavily downvoted, out of over a hundred. Nuance/dissent wasn't even vaguely on the cards.

I don't know what your definition of Reddit-like is, but that's mine.

I've been sleeping on this, works like a charm!

You're right: I didn't answer the question, because I suspect it was asked in bad faith to begin with, given that a simple online search would yield ample evidence. Much of which has already been discussed here on HN.

Given that you've dismissed said evidence provided in other comments as not compelling and/or you attacked the source without addressing the evidence, I think my concern was well placed.

At this point I suspect anyone who even asks that question of concern trolling. The evidence is overwhelming.

> People have free speech, but obviously that doesn't mean you are free to say things that could be considered hateful or factually untrue.

So people don't actually have free speech.

The actual outcomes of those different voting systems is still a dominant US that is increasingly leaving the rest of the Western world behind.

So maybe we should be learning from them?

We are getting old, are having few if any children, yet our social contract is built on a series of Ponzi schemes that become unmaintainable under such circumstances. The temporary band-aid fix of mass migration is seemingly bringing many old and proud nations to a boiling point. We like our regulations, we like our welfare state, we like our extensive holidays and work life balance, and we’re not willing to budge on any of them, really. There’s too many contradictions in the system now. I’m not sure what it would take for this “will” to materialise, but I’m afraid if it does happen, it’ll come about due to some form of neo-fascism than a glorious rejuvenation of our current political order.

If the will doesn’t materialise, well, that’s exactly what civilisational collapse looks like in the historical record.

Either way, I’m not really seeing the optimistic outlook for Europe.

> Those Romanians are not Hungarian citizens.

Those “Romanians” are absolutely Hungarian citizens, as it is a precondition to voting in Hungarian elections.

We’re rapidly approaching that reality, yes.

Maybe Switzerland?

Once they all start doing it, it won't matter.

I have the exact same problem, except on Uber Eats.

I feel like everyone making comments along this line is completely missing his point.

It's not wrong that 0 is the behaviour of C/Ruby, it's just that 1/2=0.5 is the expected result of much of Python's target audience.

In fact, this seems to link to an even newer version of the text.

It's not just about emissions, though. Single-use plastics literally just accumulate in landfills until the end of time, while glass is highly recyclable (and one of the few economically viable ones).

> The cultural Revolution was sudden.

The Cultural Revolution could only have happened due to the very specific ideological backdrop that existed in China at the time. The heights of it were sudden, but it didn't come out of nowhere.

> So RLHF is the attempt to correct for the biases on the internet.

...or it can be used to reinforce a specific ideology. Completely dependent on who does the RLHF and what their motivations are.

> I had to look this up but apparently the UK doesn't either.

There are a few city-wide regulations in Scotland that prohibit it, possibly in other parts of the UK as well, but there's indeed no such national law.

Does seem to have died down since June of last year.

Weeelll, it's a duopoly, and consumers rarely get details about the aircraft prior to booking their tickets. So we have at best an indirect say in what planes get acquired and used by the airline.

Booking sites like Kayak let you filter flights by aircraft model, but it's a pretty rare feature from what I've seen.

I'm pretty sure they meant for the front cameras. The camera bumps are here to stay, I'm afraid.

That’s a feature, not a bug.

The rule of law was correctly implemented. Whether the law was morally correct or not is completely orthogonal to that fact.

Of course, it's not an accident, but let's not kid ourselves: Python was originally developed by a Westerner, in the West, and the vast majority of PSF funding also originates in the West. To look at that history and then be surprised that it's run by Westerners seems silly to me.

> In theory the PSF should be worldwide with people from everywhere.

Why?

That looks like the rule of law working as expected to me?
