lawxls··on Kite is saying farewell and open-sourcing its code
Which one do you use?
lawxls··on Zero-Cost Exceptions and Error Interfaces
Just a small suggestion to consider: If the title was "Zero-Cost Exceptions and Error Interfaces in Python" I would have received it in my personal Hacker News feed in Telegram (https://github.com/lawxls/HackerNews-personalized) as I do have "Python" keyword added. And there's also email notification services people use which might have Python as a keyword.

Thanks for providing further resources btw, added Sebastian Witowski presentation to "watch later" list :)

lawxls··on Ask HN: Alternative ways to make money with coding and system skills?
Here's something related telegram users might appreciate: https://github.com/lawxls/HackerNews-personalized

This is a telegram bot for managing personalized feed of stories from Hacker News. Just add keywords, and maybe set score threshold.

Was this a good self plug? :D

lawxls··on Ask HN: Do you recall any book or course that made a topic finally click?

lawxls··on Ask HN: Best book to learn programming in 2022?
Grokking Algorithms. Not exactly the book that teaches how to program, but is great, beginner-friendly introduction to a bunch of important concepts and algorithms in computer science.
lawxls··on GTA VI Leak [video]
Look up GTA V section on twitch. It is constantly in top 5 categories by viewers, some months of the year on par with Just Chatting (Real Life). All of that thanks to Rockstar ability to create realistic world and community Role Play servers.
lawxls··on VS Code – What's the deal with the telemetry?
How is PyCharm WSL2 support these days? WSL2 is the biggest reason I switched to VS Code 1 year ago.
lawxls··on US quietly urges more use of Russia fertilizer to ease food crisis
"By the end of this war Ukraine might end up with the largest tank army in Europe."

As Ukraine officials beg for help, and ask for half of US army armor 4th month into the war, you guys keep inhaling copium, dreaming in your beds about Russia "being destroyed" in Ukraine. I wouldn't expect anything less from western propaganda enjoyers tbh. Also taking oryx stats seriously, that's fun.

While some parts were definitely messy, and it really is a tradegy donbass and crimea situation had to be resolved this way, you'll soon be aware about the real situation in Ukraine, no matter how bad you want to believe the lies.

"The rate of Russian use of long-distance missiles dropped off dramatically" I offer you to check Ukrainian telegram channels, like "труха" for example (2mil followers) which will gladly tell you about this "dramatic decline".

* Those who left have already returned, my coworkers never left, nor will I in near future.

* Electronics can be imported via China and Kazakhstan. Thousands of kilometers of line of contact, plenty of T62's in good condition, why not give them to separatists? It is not as if Ukraine has anything better to offer. Cruise, ballistic missiles on the conveyor and in the air. Every day and night.

* So? You are not planning to restart the business in the near future as a result of your position? Bye. Toyota, Honda, and Nissan have all already announced their return. Asian cars it is. Although, cars are still very expensive.

* Lol. Again, China and Kazakhstan. It's been cheaper to order from China than ever before (or since 2016 as I remember). Aside from that, phones and other electronics are available in store at prices even lower than before due to market rate prices. GPU's are literally more accessible than three months ago.

What hurts is inflation, but it's everywhere. Also, it's kinda annoying not to be able to pay for some services that I usually use through russian bank's credit card. I guess I'll need to travel to another country in order to get a regular card, many russians did that already.

Why would we need dollar when ruble go up? Literally don't remember last time buying goods from China was this cheap.
lawxls··on US quietly urges more use of Russia fertilizer to ease food crisis
Lol. Literally just bough a flagship phone from China at a market rate price. (QIWI payment system) Ruble go up, might as well buy a 3080ti next time.
lawxls··on Imagen, a text-to-image diffusion model
The counter argument is that, by the time these models become available to the public, they will produce output that cannot be distinguished from real photos, so the damage will be even greater than if they became available today
lawxls··on Kaspersky believes it found new CIA malware
Because this thread is about CIA malware?
lawxls··on [dead]
