    Not picking on you but your answer prove the parent comment's point. Your answer is that of someone that googled some answer and went with it. This problem belongs to selection alg…

    Nothing you said here is correct. Paths, query strings, and fragments are all well defined entities. https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc3986#section-3.3

    To be honest, what you did here is called speculation. Claims require evidence, and you provided none. Your confident tone is unjustified imo.

    This is false equivalence. You're describing the luxury market, a vertical that is built on decoupling the raw material cost from the price tag. And in reality it is more nuanced t…

    Reading your parent comment and the responses, I feel be missing the point others are trying to make. There's much less technology, components, and material in a headphone compared…

    This is a very reasonable comment. IMO it's a falacy to take into consideration the age of an account especially when it is subjective experience.

    That doesn't sound accurate. The T in TPM stands for trust, the whole standard is about verifying and establishing trust between entities. The standard is designed with the assumpt…

    I will start sharing them moving forward. I've had several parent threads deleted in the past(rightfully so) because it turned out I was responding to AI. Thank you for staying on …

    This is not a special case. Everything you mentioned above can actually be achieved using cli. You can create listeners, configure pipelines, and sinks(granted not ergonomic). Sink…

    I feel HN comments have been getting hijacked for a long time now by LLM agents. Always so early, very positive, and hard to spot. Some replaced em-dash with --, some replace them …

    Totally. I always found joy solving critical performance problems because it naturally pave a path forward to peel the layers and untangle the system interactions which feeds my cu…

    agreed. Strong emphasis on "profiling and identifying the actual bottleneck". Every benchmark will show a nested stack of performance offenders, but a solid interpretation requires…

    Yes definitely not dismissing the lock overhead, but I wanted to bring attention to the implicit false equivalence made in the post. That said, I am surprised the lock check was sh…

    a real human. threads can exist before main() starts. for example, you can include another tu which happens to launch a thread and call instance(). Singletons used to be a headache…

    The performance observation is real but the two approaches are not equivalent, and the article doesn't mention what you're actually trading away, which is the part that matters. Th…

    no offense but it looks like the reason behind oauth confusion is the author. I had to read half way through to get to a definition which was a poor explanation. Sometimes certain …

    This is the definition of reasoning motivated fallacy. You want to believe what you want to believe.

    My naive take is we discovered it as a math tool first but later on rediscovered it in nature when we discovered the electromagnetic field. The electromagnetic field is naturally a…

    Maybe I missed it but I don't see them defining what they mean by ethics. Ethics/morals are subjective and changes dynamically over time. Companies have no business trying to defin…

    I am not sure the author knows what spacial frequency means. Taking a well defined measurement unit and using it as an expression feels pretencious.

    I think parent comment was pointing to lack of establishing a causation link. The finding in their abstract is extrapolated by statistical inference. For example smokers tend to dr…
