I can't believe this is what hackernews has become. This kind of stuff is at the top.

I recall having to maintain an integration to some obscure SOAP API that ate and spit out XML with strict schemas and while I can't remember much about it, I think the integration broke quite easily if the other end changed their API s

Blood tests can't measure concentrations in other tissues.

It's just an API that utilizes DNS, not that interesting imo.

I'd like to have high speed railways in my country, not some decades long political conversion project. If we need railways that can go across the borders of our neighboring countries, build new ones instead of upgrading existing ones.

You can run multiple linux distros on linux just fine via KVM/QEMU, there is nothing special WSL offers except that it is a must if you're doomed to use windows.

I think CMake is the perfect balance. You need to write few lines and think about few things before adding a dependency, but usually nothing too crazy. It might not work the first try but that's okay.

Sure, there are various dependencies, but it's nothing like "cargo install crate-name". Cargo makes it so effortless to joink the dumbest dependency for the simplest thing.

Regardless of language, really? I highly doubt that, you don't generally see such problems with C or even C++ because dependencies are more cumbersome to add, especially in a way that's cross-platform.

Yeah, it feels like nothing but a little trick. Why would anyone want to actually use this? The exe simply calls docker, it can embed an image into the exe but even then it first calls docker to load the embedded image.

I'm so tired of generative AI. I can't take anyone who uses them seriously anymore.

Cool, I love that there are ways to utilize RAM and VRAM as filesystems. Sometimes you just don't need all that pure RAM/VRAM.

Screw cloudflare, I rather host my own proxies.

I can't really understand the desire to be completely anonymous. Isn't GDPR protection or some paid privacy protection enough?

Pardon my ignorance, but do you mean VOR instead of VAR? Or what does VAR stand for in your example?

Russia is like a kid playing with matches. I'm a noob when it comes to aviation, but AFAIK RNAV GPS approaches are quite common? Disrupting that is dangerous.

These typescript fanatics never fail to make me feel disgusted by what they've done...

Sure, it is optional, but I've seen the unnecessary complexity seep into codebases over time, even though the software was originally elegant and simple. I'm not sure if such perversions exist, it's been a while already since

TypeScript is unnecessarily complex.

In 3D graphics and physics its importance and accuracy are obvious, but I agree that with ML the vector space represents so many different things that using a dot product feels fuzzy. However I barely have any knowledge of ML, so this is ju

How complex? I'm no physicist nor an expert at this, but AFAIK we aren't really capable of simulating even a single electron at the quantum scale right now? Correct me if I'm wrong.

I'm currently recovering from burnout and the trick of not caring just does not work for me. This is my 2nd burnout and even though I learned that trick among other things from the 1st, it just does not work because I think it's a

I wonder how much that wire mesh floor distorts the recording result? I guess it must be insignificant, since the walls, ceiling and floor absorb almost all reflected sound waves?

It looks really good for such a simple algorithm. I love this!

by harha_ 2y ago
Well I'm tired of all this bullshit anyways. I don't want to manage multiple versions of the same language on my system in the first place, but I guess it's useful for those who need it.

by harha_ 2y ago
All that complexity, for what?

I'm happy for you, I'm working on to get in a similar position.
