Will the intelligent agents be plugging the infected USB sticks in?
Bonkers to call college graduates deadbeats. These aren’t addicts or slackers. They had to have some level of achievement their whole lives and managed to finish a degree.
Getting on disability is insanely difficult and pays jack shit. That is not a US equivalent by any measure.
> Excess solar power generated by ordinary consumers is probably being priced correctly Do you have any evidence for this position? Is this just regulations giving you bad vibes? I’m pretty sure everyone was quite aware…
No? Christianity, for example, has changed massively over time. You can pick any denomination, and it’s true. You can also look at new religions, denominations, or sects popping up. The purpose of religion is at its…

At a certain point, grades become arbitrary and won’t necessarily select for the best candidates. Obviously the current system doesn’t, either. The actual solution is to increase the number of slots for training doctors…
It’s free, but it’s not like they’re running Gmail as a charity, either. It has revenue and contributes to their other businesses.
Even that is arguably not lucky, it just followed a non-obvious trajectory. Graphics uses a fair amount of linear algebra, so people with large scale physical modeling needs (among many) became interested. To an extent…
Again, the old car comparison is demonstrably untrue. To put the same example forward, computer modeling has wildly changed and accelerated car design in ways that were impossible for any sum of money in the 70s. I…
> You are getting a multi-million dollar truck for $50k. You’re not, though, because that truck never did and never could exist. A modern F-150 isn’t a 70s F1 car made cheap by new tech. This isn’t something you can…
I don’t think this is true. Advancements in technology often make things possible that previously were not at any price. Engines, for example, are better than ever in part due to computer modeling that would have been…
That is a low n, but I’m not sure what the alternative is. Surely random anecdotes (n=1) are even less powerful?
That’s a strange comparison to make. Those are entirely different sectors and sorts of engineering projects. In this example, also, SpaceX built all of that on Earth. Why not do the obvious comparison with terrestrial…
Lockheed, Boeing, Northrop, Raytheon, and all the others are private companies, too. NASA and others generally go through contractors to build things. SpaceX is on the dole just like them.
The satellite is built on Earth, so I’m not sure how it dodges any of those regulations practically. Why not just build a fully autonomous, solar powered datacenter on Earth? I guess in space Elon might think that no…
A truck is sluggish because of its weight and inertia. It’s a law of nature. What law of nature is making Gitlab slow?
Besides what all these other commenters are saying, probably many of the people running these small lunch shops in Japan are the owners, not waged employees. On top of that, that business probably isn’t viable for 8…
> If you were open every day of the year and assume no seasonality, that means your first 49 orders every day go just to regulatory fees. This looks crazy because it is incorrect. In your premise, that 9% profit margin…
$250k per house is an absolutely insane level of mismanagement.
I'm not sure it's common knowledge, but it is general knowledge. Not all HNers are writing web apps. Many may be writing truly compute bound applications. In my experience writing computer vision software, people really…
No one is suggesting “wasting time on non problems.” You’re tilting at windmills.
These are the metrics underneath it all. Profiles tell you what parts are slow relative to others and time your specific implementation. How long should it take to sum together a million integers?
It isn’t what you said. If you want, you can write your own matmul in Numba and it will be roughly as fast as similar C code. You shouldn’t, of course, for the same reason handrolling your own matmuls in C is stupid.…
How is it not general knowledge? How do you otherwise gauge if your program is taking a reasonable amount of time, and, if not, how do you figure out how to fix it?
