I also agree. Spotify actually went the other way, about six or seven years ago. They used to use translated song titles where available, but switched to using the canonical title in the canonical script.

My response to having whole playlists effectively change language was the most reasonable one: start learning Japanese. Now I can at least read kana and get a solid chunk of titles, and I pick out phrases here and there in the lyrics now.

I can't imagine trying to search for something with a specific title and having the results screwed by bizarre machine translation.

I actually put up with Lineage for many years before it got so bad that I had to switch to an iPhone. Before 2020 many apps still worked fine with it. All my computers are Linux and I self host everything, but I just couldn't risk an account lockout or a broken bank app.

Honestly I wish there was a legal requirement for those services to provide full access via a relatively open platform (like a web site), not a mobile app.

> How close are they?

Not very. That said, DFD is a technology with tremendous moonshot potential.

Fusion propulsion is inherently easier than fusion power on Earth because you don’t have to worry about converting heat to electricity and the breakeven threshold is far lower; depending on the mission, even Q < 1 could be fine.

>Breed and size are less predictive of danger than level of training. An 8 pound Chihuahua can do serious damage if it's badly trained. A properly trained Rottweiler is absolutely bomb-proof. It's certainly capable of more damage, but it won't.

Level of damage is a component of danger. I am not worried about the damage an 8lb chihuahua will do to my kid, that can most likely be healed, and most people can stop the attack without weapons.

I am worried that the only way I can save my kid from a pit bull or similar dog is with a knife or gun, and even then, the damage will be severe.

> Pit bulls are no more dangerous than any other breed. They have a bad reputation because they are popular among dog-fighters, but pit bulls (and pit mixes) make excellent pets -- so long as they are trained.

The same can be said of tigers and hyenas and lions and chimps and bears.

Prior to the langstroth hive, European beekeepers destroyed the hive entirely to harvest the honey. Mites and disease were less prevalent and insects were FAR less stressed by the environment.

The Langstroth hive was invented in the 1850s, and the first migratory commercial hives started in the US 50 years later.

In the 1940s we saw a steady decline in hives, but the hives really started seeing massive die offs in the 2000s.

So no, the timelines are not really due to shipping commercial hives. There's other, stronger factors at play.

> there's also the aspect of keeping people so busy and exhausted that they don't show up when it matters

This would make sense if people didn’t show up for anything. They do. Including very overworked folks.

The unfortunate truth is the people most interested in privacy overlap significantly with the politically nihilistic and lazy. They’ve never called their elected or shown up to a town hall and, moreover, never will, because of course it’s useless.

Hi HN,

I am a dedicated Fullstack-Developer with a knack for thoroughness and a love for teams that want to grow together. I’ve built and maintained CRUD applications for various companies and customers over the last 6 years. I can work with and help out with agile procedures. I especially enjoy requirement analysis, database schema design and frontend development. I am looking exclusively for jobs where 20-24 hours is a possibility. If that sounds right for you, send me a mail. I am happy to hear from you!

Those companies can want that all they want, meanwhile the developers of LLMs themselves can choose or not choose to reflect that in their training or to monetize their training.

You're absolutely right that there's an interest in affecting the output, but my hope is the design of models is not influenced by this, or that we can know enough about how models are designed to prefer ones that are not nudged in this way.
Ask HN: How are you doing code reviews in the era of GenAI?
by lenerdenator | 2025-07-01 15:23:16+00:00
I'm a more senior member on my team, and like many software engineering companies, we're using various GenAI technologies like LLMs and agentic AI to help with coding tasks.

The good news is, it does increase the output of less-experienced developers. The bad news is, it also increases the output of less-experienced developers.

We use a fairly standard code review process: make a PR, have it pass CI/CD tests, have other developers review, and merge into main if approved. The problem is that we are getting a larger volume of PRs to review and it's beginning to cut into the productivity of more senior members of the team.

How do you handle this increase in PR review activity?

> whole point of representative democracy was supposed to be that you elect someone to represent your interests, so you don't need to participate in the day to day mundanity of managing the bureaucracy

According to whom? Nothing in the Federalist Papers or our country’s founding envisions fire-and-forget politics.

> sure wish our world would try more experimentation in governance

The correct place for this experimentation is small governments. And to my knowledge, this experimentation does happen. It just doesn’t necessarily have the effects its framers imagined. RCV didn’t break the two-party system, for example. And public-sector unions have turned into pests.

It seems artificial at face value but the distribution model has existed for decades under the same conditions.

The argument is that we should split these two concerns explicitly to create a delineation of roles and responsibilities. We have a model for this but don’t adopt it elsewhere in the name of simplicity, but the outcome is more complex because you can’t point the finger at anyone.

It should work as you say, but it doesn’t and arguably never will. So I suggest we deliberately change everything to the distribution model to make it explicit. It then becomes clearer that the distributor is who you go to for support. If the author is the distributor, go to them. If it’s someone else, go to the entity that distributes it. If there is no distributor, it’s on you to build it and support it yourself.

It forces the build process onto the distributor which makes them best set up to deploy fixes, therefore it’s more clearly their responsibility. The shifting of where it builds actually goes a long way to solving this problem. If you are building and publishing it yourself, you are set up to fix the issue immediately which indicates you should fix it first and then upstream it.

No I am referring to the EPD as I state in my comment, an acronym you should know since it’s defined in the explainer you link. As someone who has experience in this area, it’s not as simple as “just use the Accept-Language header it will be fine”.

In any event, that’s besides then point. There are non-tracking cookies that get swept up in the EPD’s consent requirements. This causes way more popups than needed to address the real problem of users being tracked and profiled across domains. The result is users being inundated with consent banners on freaking homepages.

If you changed the requirements to “consent is required for marketing cookies” then I’d wager it would vastly reduce the need for these banners. You could show the banner interstitially as soon as a customer entered your funnel and wanted to try to perform spooky attribution.

In my experience the banners are useless because they don’t actually tell me whether the site is tracking me or not (the behavior I presumably want to prevent). They just tell me whether the site uses cookies, which I’m okay with 99% of the time, so I just click yes.

Been There, Done That, Bought The T-Shirt.

Around 2008, tried to M&A regional email providers that served commercial and government enterprises throughout UK and Europe onto a more secure, standardized, and centralized infrastructure with lower employee count.

Totally obliterated by GMail and Hotmail because competing with (almost) free on something people really don't want to change once established is really, really hard even if you're gobbling up the supply-side.

Maybe it scales where there are compliance aspects like ProofPoint, but otherwise people don't want to change utility infrastructure without a big win or significant existing pain.

Times have changed but getting people to move on low cost commodity utilities with lots of options is almost like going into the restaurant industry.

I think Discord is the best chat app for friend groups and it's not even close. At this point I've written the following bots specifically for my friend group's server:

# Music Quiz Bot

Existing apps work ok. A lot of paid and don't let you use a specific Spotify playlist.

The only thing annoying about this one is that none of the Discord API wrappers handle audio very well so I've found that this one gets a bit flaky if you're trying to play a lot.

This one is probably like 500 lines of Typescript but a lot of that is for the Spotify API. The game logic is pretty minimal.

# Birthday Bot

This is like 10 lines of Python. It's a cron that reads from a Google Sheet my friends and I keep up to date with personal information. If it's someone's birthday then it'll post a happy birthday message to them.

# Plex Bot

I wrote this before I discovered that Overseerr just has this built-in. My Plex was set up with a webhook to hit whenever new media was downloaded. The bot would post to a specific thread with the metadata about the new media. This included another webserver for serving the cover art from the private Plex metadata server.

# Movie Quiz Bot

Similar to the music bot although I don't think existing apps exist that do this. Essentially it's https://framed.wtf/ except as a game in a Discord channel where random frames are pulled from movies in my media library and everyone competes to name the movie first. This one required some ffmpeg fun to make pulling the stills not take forever. I considered doing static stills or having a cronjob do it, but it's more fun when it's completely random.

Well, I live in Finland, and I've only ever worked in software here. It's pretty much the opposite of Japan, and I think there are some good ways and some bad ways in which that happens.

What I believe is that making more money buys more options. Japan's actual GDP per capita is surprisingly low for a country with such a strong and well educated population. Working conditions would probably improve significantly there if that number doubled or tripled overnight, because of the second order effects: A lot of people would be willing, at least now and then, to leave the extra money on the table in exchange for e.g. not working 80 hour weeks. Anyone who tells you the opposite has not thought hard enough about what making more money really means.

Finland's GDP per capita is surprisingly strong by the same token for a country with such aggressive taxation policies, and no "game breaking" natural resources. (Norway has oil and they are absolutely loaded. Sweden doesn't, but they have neoliberalized a lot since the 1970s.) A few factors which really help this: Finnish people have sky high English proficiency, especially in engineering, and aiming from the start at an international or at the very least EU-wide market is the norm here for tech companies. The Finnish market is only 5 million people, and firms really do just make much more money and much better products when markets are large enough for them to specialize.

I suspect Japanese companies might be caught in a strange middle-market-size trap where the ~100 million population is just large enough that few companies truly feel the need to aim internationally, but in practice it is actually a quite small economy in the modern world to have as your only home base.

> What does this look like? Like asking children learning to read to demonstrate they can read Shakespeare? A staple of modern education is scaffolding learning

We definitely need to rethink some assumptions.

I view education as serving at least two goals: one is job-specific training (eg you will go on to do an English Lit PhD) and the other is proving you can do sit in a chair for long enough to do a job, and do critical thinking (you will graduate and get a “degree required” job).

I think we are mostly worried about how the death of the essay affects the latter. In some sense what you are studying is irrelevant for this case, what is important going forward is developing critical reasoning skills _in partnership with AI_.

Not claiming to have solved this, but some ideas would be:

- ask students to produce way more papers, but now you are an editor checking for high level understanding and catching falsehoods/errors. - stop asking students to write essays, instead offer them simulated conversations with AI experts where they need to display knowledge to keep up (eg “Art Museum Curator Simulator”), or tutoring kids from lower years. - stop asking people to do 4 year degrees and use AI to give much better apprenticeships for the real work (this might be my favorite).

> we should give students a stake in learning what they need to learn.

I strongly agree with this one, I think for many people the college degree has fallen victim to Goodheart’s law. Trade schools might actually be better but it took ZIRP to create those for software engineering.

Show HN: I built a local STT tool to brain-dump into Claude Code
by primaprashant | 2025-07-01 15:25:26+00:00
Claude Code is great with detailed context, but I got tired of typing long prompts in the terminal all the time. I wanted local speech-to-text (STT) tool that actually worked in the terminal, so I built `hns`. It pipes your speech directly to your clipboard as text and uses faster-whisper for transcription.

```

$ hns # start recording

<talk>

<Enter> # clipboard now holds the text

```

Now I can ramble for 2 minutes about a refactor and paste the whole brain-dump into Claude Code.

Also handy for emails, Slack messages, or feeding messy thoughts to any LLM. Nothing leaves your machine, works offline after first model download, MIT licensed.

Install: `uv tool install hns` or `pipx install hns`

Honestly I don't hang out with people like that. If you can't put down your Distractify 9000 to play a game with me, then clearly I am not very interesting to you and it's better for both of us to do more engaging activities with more engaging people.

People bristle at this sometimes- they'll ask why we don't hang out as much and I'll explain- and like, I get it, nobody likes feeling called out or criticized, and I don't even mean it as criticism, not really. Your behavior in reaching for your phone tells me that you have more important things to do, and I don't want to obstruct you from them. If those things aren't actually more important, well, then your priorities are clearly out of wack and you should sort that out for yourself.

Like just... stop responding to stimuli. Put things in the order in which they are meaningful to you, and then keep that. You're a conscious being, act like one.
by wavemode | 2025-07-01 15:25:59+00:00
Anticompetitive practices don't mean that you have a monopoly. In fact people often get this wrong - having a monopoly is not illegal in and of itself. What's illegal is using one's market position to prevent other companies from being able to compete in a market. Whether that market position is 100% or 10%, what matters is that it's significant enough for you to pressure other companies out of the market.
