In case anyone is curious about an overview of the actual changes: http://www.ada-auth.org/standards/22over/html/Ov22-TOC.html

This is such a strange take to be the top comment of “hacker” news. Why are we shaming someone who “hacked” something together and made it open source?

What about libraries that are not in their training data? (e.g. new libraries, private libraries)

Or knowledge that is in their training data, but the majority of its training data isn't following the best practices? (e.g. Web Content Accessibility Guidelines)

I think there is a fair point in those cases of having a bunch of markdown docs files detailing them

Why bother? To save more than 300k per year per employee. Just pay them via Payoneer or a similar fintech. For 70k you can get Argentinean top talent. They are in the same timezone as US East+1 and the top talent has usually a pretty good English level

You could also argue that without the US financing the Afghan side in the Soviet-Afghan war and the Iraq side in the Iraq-Iran war then the Taliban wouldn't have taken advantage of the Afghan power vacuum post civil war and that Iraq wouldn't have attacked Kuwait to avoid paying their debts, starting the Gulf War which was the prelude to the Iraq War

But was Rust on the forefront of industry adoption in 2014? It seems it wasn't even officially released until 2015 according to Wikipedia and the only known project that I'm aware of that was using Rust back then was Mozilla's Servo which is (semi?) dead. Similar languages back then that could have replaced Rust and had similar potential were Nim and D and both of them failed to get a significant industry adoption

Neat project!

However, I'm pretty sure OpenCV has their "universal intrinsics" and RISC-V with scalable vector registers is supported in the latest OpenCV version

Universal intrinsics (docs not updated): https://docs.opencv.org/4.x/d6/dd1/tutorial_univ_intrin.html Scalable RVV support: https://github.com/opencv/opencv/pull/22179

SQL has been Turing complete since the 1999 standard https://stackoverflow.com/a/7580013

you can always use a password manager like the KeePass family which is file based. sync it across devices with nextcloud/syncthing instead of gdrive/Dropbox/one if you are extra paranoid

according to James gosling (the creator of Java) in a interview from a year or two ago with lex Friedman he said he wanted a C++-like language but without its pitfalls: pointers bugs and bad concurremcy/synchronization primitives. This was to bring enterprise programmers (who mainly used c++ at that point) to the JVM ecosystem. He expected an explosion of jvm languages after that which, sadly, didn't happen. I think there were more pitfalls which I don't remember now.

Maybe he is saying bull now to look more cool, but he sounded rather convincing in the interview. I'd recommend to listen to it

Someone said "hey log4j 1.2 wasn't that bad" after the log4shell vuln and came up with the idea of reload4j which is just log4j 1.2 but with its known vulnerabilities, bugs and performance issues fixed. Complete feature freeze besides that. Considering that a log tool shouldn't have that many features and that log4j 1.2 was being used by a lot of companies (just see maven central stats) there is no need to add more features to reload4j, which I find kind of cool

Again, it's a matter of resources. Not everyone can travel to US and have the money to open a bank account there. Anyway to "easily" convert from pesos to US dollars (which you have to use some financial instruments which aren't trivial for the average citizen) you need to justify all your earnings which not everyone can do because people try to avoid taxes as much as possible.

For instance, most devs I know that work remote jobs for companies abroad, they ask for them to pay in crypto because if you try to get paid in the legal way you get 50% less off the bat in the forceful conversion from usd to pesos and then you get an additional 20-30% less due to taxes

Oh that's a different question IMO. Crypto is making it easier to bring dollars from abroad so I get it does lower the black market cash dollar's prices in that sense. Big international crypto exchanges like binance aren't yet regulated here so technically the crypto world IS part of the black market anyway

I disagree. As someone from Argentina which has a high percentage of crypto owners I can say poor people in poor countries aren't literate enough or don't have the resources (ie: liquidity, bank account) to get cryptos. It's more of a middle class thing here. Real estate isn't cheap in the big cities if you take into consideration the average salary and barely any financial aid to buy property. Besides, being a landlord isn't profitable enough given the initial investment because rental prices are heavily regulated. Also not good for reselling because price have been going down in the last years and it looks like it will keep going like that. Stocks options are heavily limited and also (obviously) regulated. A lot of people here are afraid to invest in stocks here anyway. with an estimated inflation rate of 60% people save money by buying dollar cash, crypto and classic bank instruments (fund investments and fixed term investments)

it's pretty much the same. Black market and crypto market are arbitraged between them so the price of one isn't too different from the other

Same thing happened with Netflix. IMO recommendations were much better when you could rate with 5-stars

That's what kongregate did I believe. They disabled the forums, the chats, no new games, no new achievements and that's it. It's a strange sensation to enter kongregate which had such a thriving community and see everything so... static

they can marry whoever they want, they just won't be naturalized ie if a Palestinian marries an Israeli, the Palestinian won't get Israeli citizenship
