Yes, I was considering making the same point, but in fairness to him, the vast majority of the millenial marxists and beyond don't know this either, nor that marxism doesn't mean "…

Exactly, the charge rates for the type of crime he was talking about (stealing from cars) are still incredibly bad, his claims are incredibly suspect.

Is there any evidence or other form of justification for the Flock CEO's claims about how it is responsible for SF's crime downturn? I find it hard to believe that Flock cameras ar…

Yes, building a highly reactive automated system upon flawed foundations is bad.

If Flock has so many issues with this database, and all their solutions are patchwork, and those solutions remain local to the jurisdiction that is locally using Flock, then this i…

I can forgive the modeling being godawful jank (windows floating in the air, disconnected from the house). But I expected it to have a better understanding of the text. Instead, we…

From a job listing I saw here on the front page today. Instantly repulsive: > About the role > "Men wanted for hazardous journey. Low wages, bitter cold, long hours of complete dar…

Thanks for the correction, I knew I was about 2 decisions out of date when I had the impulse to write my post, but my research to fill in my blanks was a bit faulty. I added the 2n…

Not quite true, there is already a capable C compiler written in Zig (Aro/arocc), and a plan to transition to it for C compilation: https://codeberg.org/ziglang/translate-c Using t…

That's the Switch 2's chip, isn't it? Meaning missing SVE there too. Casual search leads me to believe Steam Frame will also not include it (Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, but added in Elite …

The "and not Neon" was a bit of an unnecessary pre-condition I shouldn't have added. However, given the OP discusses "there were a surprising number of users without AVX2 capable C…

Name a few big products with SVE and not NEON, within the gaming market

Needing SIMD is hardly a problem though, especially if you only need the completely ubiquitous versions, and in using it, can avoid a good amount of fussy stuff.

My god, you are insufferable, that's not my opinion at all. Just because I used quotation marks in one place, a practice that can convey multiple meanings, not all of which involve…

Reasonable people can disagree with you on the point that Rust is more safe because you can write unsafe code in Rust, whereas in Fil-C you write unsafe code in the compiler. Why m…

Pobody's Nerfect is not the mindset that led to Rust's innovations, nor Fil-C's. "Blocks" are relevant as they are how you express programs, algorithms, etc., that you need in orde…

> claim that other systems are worse in ways they are not (e.g. with respect to Rust having unsafe blocks) If considering only "safety", then Fil-C is more safe than any Rust conta…

Yes this is essentially what I was thinking. And there have been repeated estimates about Iranian stockpiles that have proven completely wrong. I think they have been able to manuf…

> [still] can't control their own models Have we not seen several examples of older such models exploiting the docker control socket, etc., to escape containers? Even the news isn'…

Radars and bases along the path of travel from Iran to Israel have been progressively degraded. Various interceptor types also have low stockpiles at present. I'm absolutely not an…

A lot of it is training, not inference, right? I really do think the vast majority of use is HN Claude Code, with some lawyers, etc., preparing initial draft emails that they rewri…

Was the 2% figure counting all those things? I don't think so. This is changing the grounds of the discussion. Ridiculously so. Do you take me for some zealot who hates tensors or …

It was written in a specific context: > [AI] that most people hardly use at all and while ambiguous, I meant that quantifying the number of people that use it, results in a not lar…

I was referring to AI in that statement, I wrote it somewhat poorly.

Every company is using it? The deli and the laundromat too? Every consumer? Maybe transitively because they use Google or what have you, but most people I know still don't really k…
