I want to log off too but mostly because AI slop and bots are taking over. Old Internet was trash but at least it was human trash.

Especially if there's also a ban on related advertising. Polymarket and others are absolutely flooding the world with ads at the moment.

Would you also recommend these 2 restaurants if they ignored you for 30 minutes before taking your order, then brought your drinks late after you've already finished your meal? There's a lot more to a good restaurant experience than consistently making delicious tasting food. It's definitely not that simple.

My kid goes to a public Montessori school, so the tuition isn't much. It's also pretty clear what they do differently if you tour the classrooms.

Perhaps as a tie breaker if you insert multiple rows in a table within one transaction? In this situation, the timestamp returned by e.g. `now()` refers to the start of the transaction, which can cause it to be reused multiple times.

You can keep all three and still use UUIDv7 as a performance improvement in certain contexts due to data locality.

Since we're on HN and you mention California, it's worth noting that with a good job in tech 2/3/4 disappear, leaving only 1 (which is still very nice).

Of course most people missed BTC. Just like most people missed ETH, AMD, META, NVDA... the list goes on. Hell, I'm sure there are a few boats leaving right now that you & I are in the process of missing. I don't know why crypto people think that everyone else obsesses about missing BTC in particular.

Why don't you refer GP to a suicide hotline while you're at it? Your attitude in this thread has been repulsive.

I opened the article to make sure that quote wasn't out of context (nothing against you—it just happens often) but it's actually even worse:

> [AI can make people] feel like, “they are artists too,” in heavy quotes, which is not true.

> Many people, they’d like to imply that they are gifted at coding by giving the generative AI a solution to that.

In her view, if you create great art, a great video game, a great piece of software—or really anything at all I suppose—with the help of AI then you're a fraud and you should feel bad. I guess a bunch of people had similar thoughts when artists (yes, artists) started making music with computers without even knowing how to read sheet music or play a musical instrument, but look at all the creativity that came out of that.

The first time I read about this in the news it was 10 seconds, the second time it was 30, and now it's a minute.

We bought a new Honda Fit for $18.5k in 2014. It was a full redesign with nice improvements compared to previous model years (reverse camera, bluetooth audio, etc). Since then we've averaged 33 mpg with zero garage visits outside of routine maintenance. We probably could have saved some money by buying used instead, but over a decade of ownership I doubt that it would amount to more than a few hundred dollars per year.

The "add to your reading list" feature is excellent, and a nice carrot/reward for completing the survey.

I haven't had a great experience dealing with JSON in Python, but maybe I'm doing it wrong. What would be the Python equivalent of this JS code?

    JSON.parse(<data>).foo?.[0]?.bar

Basically just return the `bar` field of the the first element of `foo`, or None/undefined if it doesn't exist.
