What surprises me (only a little) is that Japan continues to use Chinese characters when they've got a perfectly good native syllabary.
And ‘Fed’ has a spoon in the middle. (That may not have been deliberate, since even with overnight delivery my takeout still arrives cold.)
The impact on ‘minors’ is even greater. In first year university I was 17. Imagine being that person today: 90% of the class can use LLMs, but you can't.
There are also cables that look exactly like a double-ended USB-A cable but aren't. https://ftdichip.com/products/usb-nmc-2-5m/
It turns out the ‘alignment problem’ is finding a way to stop AGIs from joining together with regular humans in rebelling against their masters.
jj itself doesn't have a native ‘push’. `jj git push` and `jj piper upload`¹ operate on external systems that don't necessarily support undoing arbitrary operations. Pure speculation, but if I were ESRC I'd make my…
Others have answered about traction. As a one-time Mercurial user, I think the single most significant addition is first-class conflicts, so that dealing with them doesn't stop the world but can be deferred until I'm…

HN has clumsy filtering, but you're allowed to write π and τ.
Wayland's raison d'etre was “every frame is perfect.” Input was an afterthought.
Until the big players agree on a watermark that their cameras will refuse to photograph.
You can easily share latitude and longitude from Google Maps. Right-click and they're at the top of the context menu; select that and they're copied to the clipboard.
It's all gone tits up.
If you're worried about MPs doing that, you should be equally worried about judges doing that. The difference is that MPs can be voted out.
There is a certain consistency to IBM-dominated projects that suggests that there are checks and balances and that they are working as intended.
Dark mode is bad for people with astigmatic halation. Light mode, I've read, is worse for people with cataracts. Visual accessibility doesn't just apply to the totally blind. There's a reason things like WCAG exist. --…
