Not sure what the policies are on banning sites, but can this website please be banned?

I'm on mobile, this website has deceptive hitboxes so "dismiss" on the notifications prompt will almost hit the advert on the bottom. Once I finally managed to read the article and hit the bottom of the page, it had a popup which hijacked navigation so I couldn't easily return to HN.

Will record this behavior if asked.

That said... There's not much to say about this? Is it using "meta" lenses printed on silicon? Wish the article would have had any information whatsoever. I suppose we'll learn more at CES. :P

Mayo with fries would be a German likeness. Very odd in the States.

I also made a game for the gametank! In rust B)

Optimization is tough, especially figuring out what to do between blitter operations. I'm kinda sad there's no pallet tricks either, but, it's a system worth playing around in :)

I've tried out Pkl which is similar in spirit, and I think it's a real solution for k8s manifests. The only thing holding it back is industry adoption imo. It's leagues better than Helm, and mostly better than Kustomize.

See also: KCL, which is very similar and might _actually_ be "the winner". Time will tell.

I don't expect a winner personally, rather that there will be dozens of alternatives always. Like build systems, deployments are quite bespoke to organizations and legacy has a way of sticking around for a long time

Having used CUE, mainly outside of Kubernetes, I cannot see myself switching to KCL. I really like having a configuration language that isn't so tied to a specific system and which I can use with the Go SDK

So whats your take on https://github.com/stripe/skycfg do you also have experience with it?

No, I went with CUE instead of Starlark

But Microsoft _does_ have a widely known C++ compiler. I doubt Sony does. Does Nintendo?

Anecdotally, I had a grandfather I never met who had built his own house on a nice plot of land out in the sticks, and that's something I'm obsessed with doing in the future. My father also worked in tech, but didn't really pass knowledge to me.

Though, both of these things are almost stereotypical [1]

Pretty sure that's the Juniper voice. See the live demo for the new sky voice that is allegedly problematic. Fwiw the client is glitchy when changes voices, so it may have displayed as sky.

"better safe than sorry"

They used a sound-alike and had her sing one of her songs. I believe that's a different precedent, in that it's leveraging her fame.

Imo Sky's voice is distinct enough from Scarlett, and it wasn't implied to _be_ her.

Sam's "Her" tweet could be interpreted as such, but defending the tweet as the concept of "Her", rather than the voice itself, is.

Does not the 'her' tweet give away the game. Aas you said, it was a midler impersator singing one of midlers songs. In this case they have a voice for their AI assistant/phone sex toy that is very much like the actress that played a famous ai assistant/phone sex toy. Even if he is taken as meaning the concept it's very very damning. If they had, instead, mimic'ed another famous actor's voice that hasn't played a robot/ai/whatever and used that would that really be any better though? Christopher Walken, say, or hell Bette Midler?

I've been using Pkl since it came out and I like it a lot, and the editing experience is fantastic with intellij.

I don't think inheritance is a flaw at all here. It makes a lot of sense to build configuration up from base definitions, especially when you account for its merge syntax.

I've been using it for k8s manifests a la customize. The biggest pain point for me is the lack of flat member syntax when updating deeply nested fields.

Something that's caught my eye is KCL, which seems similar, but maybe a bit more mature?
