Slow thinker, like molasses.

  1. They internalize title heuristics because of who they perceive is the author of the heuristics.
  2. The entire leadership team of Roblox is unserious. Consistent amateur hour behavior out of them.
  3. The article doesn't even directly mention Schlep https://www.youtube.com/@RealSchlep/videos whom Roblox kicked off the platform for catching pedophiles.

    It was awesome seeing the kids on Roblox revolt against Baszucki for doubling down on supporting pedophiles.

    The leadership team at Roblox is so entirely tone deaf, if I were the the board, I'd remove them all. I watched Baszucki and

    This is in addition to the money laundering and dystopian hellscape that is the whole game publishing platform that has been documented here on hn.

    My own child says that no parent should allow their child on Roblox. Smart kid.

  6. I am not a vegan, but many of my meals are vegan. Most of my meals are vegetarian, but I do eat meat. I do not eat pork, octopus or goat.

    I also keep my dietary preferences very low key. In a social setting, if I accidentally eat something I try and avoid, I don't make a fuss.

  7. And? Get an M1/M2 off of ebay or craigslist.
  8. There are also RISC-V designs with TSO. If you are targeting x86 workloads, it makes sense to have a per thread TSO mode.
  9. We are learning so many wonderful things about Bees!

    Bees play https://www.hackerneue.com/item?id=33369572 https://www.science.org/content/article/are-these-bumble-bee...

    All of this reinforces my belief that nearly everything is conscious and aware, we differ in a capabilities and resolution but we are all more similar than we are different.

  10. Too bad Arm doesn't allow architectural licenses, because this is exactly the kind of thing Valve and the FEX developers would want to extend the ISA to support. I bet we see a RISC-V backend to FEX in the next 6 months, it probably already exists in a private repo.

    FEX is the shootstring, extra special discount budget (not maligning) version of Rosetta. Apple should sell Rosetta to Valve.

  11. Only x86 can make x86 irrelevant.
  12. Your original comment comes of like excuse making and that nothing can possibly be done.

    > > Between making money, perceived culpability and risks offloaded to insurance companies why would they?

    > Because it is the right thing to do, and the NTSB thinks so too.

    Doing great is much different than, "accidents waiting to happen".

    I don't understand the goal of your changing rhetoric.

  13. This is the calculus that shows why our current civilization is unlikely to pass the filter.
  14. The ship was 10 years old, not some WW2 hulk.
  15. Doesn't mean that nothing can be done. https://www.ntsb.gov/news/press-releases/Pages/nr20250320.as...

    > The NTSB found that the Key Bridge, which collapsed after being struck by the containership Dali on March 26, 2024, was almost 30 times above the acceptable risk threshold for critical or essential bridges, according to guidance established by the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials, or AASHTO.

    > Over the last year, the NTSB identified 68 bridges that were designed before the AASHTO guidance was established — like the Key Bridge — that do not have a current vulnerability assessment. The recommendations are issued to bridge owners to calculate the annual frequency of collapse for their bridges using AASHTO’s Method II calculation.

  16. > But you can see a lot of frustration shine through towards the owners who even in light of the preliminary findings had changed absolutely nothing on the rest of their fleet.

    Between making money, perceived culpability and risks offloaded to insurance companies why would they?

    > The problem is that there are a thousand merchant marine vessels operating right now that are all doing great

    Are they tho?

    I generally think you have good takes on things, but this comes across like systemic fatalistic excuse making.

    > The recommendation to inspect the whole ship with an IR camera had me laughing out loud.

    Where did this come from? What about the full recommendations from the NTSB. This comment makes it seem like you are calling into question the whole of the NTSB's findings.
