I wish C and C++ would modernize way faster
Oh Jesus Christ. First of all I have. But that's not the point. Why is it in there in the first place? And why would POSIX invest their time implementing strtok_r? Do you really think they were "just kidding" and always intended on you writing your own? Besides, how is "writing your own" a better solution than using strtok_r which is widely available -- just not part of the standard?

How do I use bstring with C++?
I found that online. I understand what it's trying to do, but that implementation seems pretty hackneyed. Change:

Show HN: Hacker Search – A semantic search engine for Hacker News
yeah there are only three stories coming up from the site search
https://hn.algolia.com/?q=postgres+clustering
only one is semanthically correct, the other pick up the wrong version of clustering (i.e. k-means instead of multi master writes)
but yeah if one doesn't test the hard cases, how does one know it preserves semantics :D

Nearsightedness is at epidemic levels – and the problem begins in childhood
Vision therapy for myopia helps some people, but not everyone, likely due to genetic and neuroplasticity differences, https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=all&page=0&prefix=false&qu.... Nevertheless, many of the principles are useful for children whose eyes and brains are still developing.

Tesla driver arrested for homicide after running over motorcyclist on Autopilot
I'm a huge Tesla skeptic, but Tesla and Musk are lightning rods for tabloid-style garbage that doesn't belong on HN, so it doesn't surprise me that we often see negative Tesla content flagged to death. Meanwhile we also see plenty of content that hits the front page and stays there [0].
Do you have examples of professional, interesting Tesla content that got flagged?
[0] More than half of the past year's most popular Tesla articles were negative: https://hn.algolia.com/?dateRange=pastYear&page=0&prefix=tru...

The Man Who Killed Google Search
It's April 23rd, 2024, and I am still looking for a good, reliable, honest and simple search engine.
All I want to do is search.
No AI.
No ads.
No shopping.
Please don't "Answer my question." I enjoy doing my own original research, thanks.
I'm entirely willing - wanting even - to pay for it.
Currently Kagi has my $, but I'm saddened and frustrated that they're not even focused on Search, they're focused on AI[1] and t-shirts.
Amazingly, in 2024, there is still a market opportunity for a good search engine.
It can't really just be me, can it?
