They were supposed to be ice free by 2020.

Yet here we are.

sieabahlpark··on Refusing to teach kids math will not improve equity
Spending more doesn't seem to help. California is the best funded but worst grades.
sieabahlpark··on Perfectly good M1 MacBooks are being scrapped because of Activation Lock [video]
Yes, because fuck you for buying a stolen product? Are you actually perpetuating making stolen goods resellable?
sieabahlpark··on Solar storm expected to make Northern Lights visible in 17 states
Wouldn't be the first time AP failed to interpret "the science".
sieabahlpark··on Apple forced to make major cuts to Vision Pro headset production plans
Right but couldn't that type of system be roughly accomplished by looking up the canonical URL and/or title from the meta tag (from a scrape) and search against the last posts?

Having a stronger policy on repeated duplicate offenders should be a thing. It just farms points that can be later used in a bot farm.

sieabahlpark··on Apple forced to make major cuts to Vision Pro headset production plans
Does anyone else think submitting the same topic a day late should result in a suspension?

I think submission quality would improve if people were forced to lookup if the topic has already been discussed.

sieabahlpark··on Problems of C, and how Zig addresses them
It sounds like you got some refactoring to use since you didn't namespace your own core types?
sieabahlpark··on I booted Linux 293k times in 21 hours
I just have it running 24/7 and never restart for weeks. I don't even have the 100 tab problem, I just like having the immediate availability without waiting for startup.
sieabahlpark··on Killing Community
Probably /b/ and 10-15 years ago where it wasn't moderated that well.
sieabahlpark··on End of Support for Cortana in Windows
Maybe they should have avoided making Halo's rampant AI the primary product in their software?

Also who the fuck talks to their PC, phones I can understand, but PCs?

sieabahlpark··on Cities Aren't Loud: Cars Are Loud (2021) [video]
You honestly can't see the issue of a silent vehicle progressing towards a pedestrian?
sieabahlpark··on Haxe 4.3
I looked at Haxe but have trouble figuring out what real benefits it would have over something like Godot at this point.
sieabahlpark··on Spyware vendors use 0-days and n-days against Android, iOS and Chrome
How will the poor authors of the bleepingcomputers website eat and feed their families if we rob them of their ad money for blogspam?
sieabahlpark··on You cannot have exactly-once delivery (2015)
It literally just means internally promoted
sieabahlpark··on Ask HN: Burnt out from big tech. What's next?
Yeah I'm sure everyone can be unemployed for a year straight and live out of their car.

That sounds completely reasonable and not absolutely, in any way, privileged or insane.

sieabahlpark··on Tell HN: Heroku deleted my database with no warning
Redis is a memory store, you're the one who fucked up treating a cache as a persistence layer.
sieabahlpark··on Walgreens Executive Says Shoplifting Threat in San Francisco Was Overstated
You think it only costs 5k?
sieabahlpark··on I Lost All Faith in LastPass
Then for sensitive strings you wouldn't use the built-in string and have to build your own?

I'm not sure I see the issue, you just implement a memory-safe string class that manages arbitrary bytes, it's slower but that wasn't the goal.

sieabahlpark··on Docker on MacOS is slow and how to fix it
Have fun managing osx and Linux dependencies then when you could just maintain one.
sieabahlpark··on Medium bans user for Chrome extension that opened articles in incognito mode
All fun and games until Microsoft closes your repo on a false dmca claim.
sieabahlpark··on Shortage of affordable housing guarantees that some people will become homeless
With all due respect, why is this article even approved here? This is something I'd expect on /r/politics, not a technical news feed.

It's blog spam that can be summarized to something like "here is the problem, upvote to show you agree that this is a problem"

sieabahlpark··on Keystone pipeline shut after 14,000-barrel oil spill in Kansas
Yeah burning the coal to power those EVs is really that much better.
sieabahlpark··on The entire crypto ecosystem is a ponzi
Actually it just means you were part of the few that profited from the ponzi scheme not that it wasn't a ponzi scheme.
sieabahlpark··on The Rune Programming Language
Unless it's trademarked it doesn't matter in the slightest
sieabahlpark··on Twitter Android app dev fired: Guess it's official now.
I'm not surprised she was fired with that attitude.
sieabahlpark··on Towns are testing new ballot counting machines that use open source software
Why would I trust anything with "off the shelf" parts (China) and elections in California?

You've listed two pieces that are not truly in favor of legitimate or honest elections.

sieabahlpark··on Documents detail plans to gut Twitter’s workforce
Sounds like a great opportunity to ride while you also look elsewhere. It has Elon behind it so it's not like it will have a lack of funding.
sieabahlpark··on How much have tech layoffs affected engineers vs. other departments?
Estimates or reported? The recession based on two consecutive quarters is on reports not estimates of what is to be reported.
sieabahlpark··on US Economy Is a Safer Bet Than ‘Dire’ Europe, Goldman Strategists Say
The writing on the wall was there when Trump was in office with how easily Europe scoffed at the idea that they were dependent on Russia.

Turns out he was right about that but it was cool to just do/think the opposite of whatever he said. The Germans laughed it off as if it "could never happen". Turns out it could and did all within a year.

sieabahlpark··on Figma's 50x ARR Multiple and What It Means for Startup Fundraising
Nothing but the cost, marketing, and effort to rebuild yet another design app.

"Why would I use that when I can get figma, XD, or zeplin"
