My issue isn't that they are wrong, my issue is with rewarding those who are wrong. But your argument is it's fine to reward those who lie? I'm not sure how this isn't worse.

I'm sure that you're right that many people used it as a vehicle rather than being just true believers (I know some people that do), but there were also a lot of true believers.

The movement also stopped a lot of research. It has also resulted in a lot of money being dumped into companies betting on it being true. If we are in fact in a bubble (and it looks this way) then all that damage is on the hands of the SIAYN crowd.

Not being a true believer makes it better, it makes it worse. A lie is far worse than being wrong. Being wrong isn't a big issue, especially in the world of research. But lying is a major issue. It ruins it for everyone. We don't have to do this cycle of boom and bust to get things done. That's literally destructive

> Best case scenario: Target or Walmart. But there is a reason that OpenAI announced deals with Etsy and Shopify rather than those.

I'm confused at that statement. Walmart and Target are exactly who OpenAI announced deals with recently:

That’s not true, watch the video here to see why not: https://youtu.be/WXqVV8_GORE

TL;DW

1. you must use current Xcode to submit to the App Store

2. Current Xcode only supports a short list of the most recent iOS SDKs as targets

3. Therefore you can’t make a build with an older Xcode to submit, and you can’t make a build that supports say, iOS 15, with current Xcode.

The video highlights a complete hack which can for now be used to make builds that target older SDKs, but Apple could change their systems to break that at any time, and in fact the latest iOSs don’t use these device support files that he shows are the key to the hack. So while you can do this now for old iOS, when 26 is too outdated for Apple to want you to target, this hack won’t work to bring it back.

Right, those black people who get offended by being called that just need confidence, right? Those LGBT are so sensitive and can’t handle the colorful names we call them! Imagine that. This kind of comment shows how HN commenters can be so incredibly hateful while thinking they are righteous, which is the worst kind of people, it’s the atitude that leads to the most terrible policies and behavior ever seen on this planet.

Of course R isn't a complied language and probably not the same category as C/Rust as systems language but is not in the same category as VB. R is a serious scientific programming language used in non-trivial programs for industrial applications. See Posit's customers. I suggest John Chambers ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Chambers_(statistician) ) book, he explain how he designed S language, R's grandfather so to speak, Software for Data Analysis ( https://link.springer.com/book/10.1007/978-0-387-75936-4 ).

The zig maintainers think that, too, thus the presence of a Code of Conduct on their website. But, as always, it's a "rules for thee, but not for me" situation - if the author was called a "monkey" by someone else, I can guarantee he would invoke the CoC to call them out, but when he does it, it's fine.

chatgpt told me:: Q:is it bs they sent it 1 in the morning on thanksgiving? A:It’s not an accident.

Companies often time unpleasant disclosures for low-attention windows: late at night, weekends, holidays. Thanksgiving morning at 1 a.m. is exactly that: minimal press, minimal outrage, minimal inbound questions.

It doesn’t mean the incident is fake. It means they wanted the obligation of disclosure without the impact of attention.

It’s standard corporate damage-containment timing.

Fact? Far from and if only in a small minority. I know Gabor Maté likes to push trauma as a cause (as far as his ridiculous remote diagnosis of Prince Harry), if not main cause for ADHD but the vast majority of ADHD is due to genetics, 70-80% as the article states. Don't forget siblings and parents when looking at an ADHD person. When the parent has ADHD there's a higher risk for the child to have adverse experiences as this study describes: https://www.academicpedsjnl.net/article/S1876-2859(16)30416-...

sorry for the german comment - ECC is mandatory!

Obligatorische Pastete: "16GB Ram sind Flischt, ohne wenn und aber. ECC ist nicht Flischt aber ZFS ist dafür ausgelegt. Wenn in Strandnähe Daten gelesen werden und es kommt irgendwie was in den Arbeitsspeicher, könnte eine eigentlich intakte Datei auf der Festplatte mit einem Fehler "korrigiert" werden. Also ECC ja. Das Problem bei ECC ist nicht der ECC-Speicher an sich, der nur wenig mehr als konventioneller Speicher kostet, es sind die Mutterbretter, die ECC unterstützen. Aufpassen bei AMD: Oft steht dabei, dass ECC unterstützt wird. Gemeint ist aber, dass ECC-Speicher läuft, aber die ECC-Funktion nicht genutzt wird. LOL. Die meisten MBs mit ECC sind Serverboards. Wer nichts gegen gebrauchte Hardware hat, kann z.B. mit einem alten Sockel 1155-Xeon mit Asus-Brett ein Schnäppchen machen. Ansonsten ist die Asrock Rack-Reihe zu empfehlen. Teuer, aber stromsparend. Generell Nachteil bei Serverboards: Die Bootzeit dauert eine Ewigkeit. Von Consumerboards wird man mit kurzen Bootzeiten verwöhnt, Server brauchen da oft mal 2 Minuten, bis der eigentliche Bootvorgang beginnt. Bernds Server besteht also aus einem alten Xeon, einem Asus Brett, 16GB 1333Mhz ECC-Ram und 6x 2TB-Platten in einem RaidZ2 (Raid6).6TB sind Netto nutzbar. Ich mag alte Hardware irgendwie. Ich reize Hardware gerne bis zum Gehtnichtmehr aus. Die Platten sind auch schon 5 Jahre alt, machen aber keine Mucken. Geschwindigkeit ist super, 80-100MB/s über Samba und FTP. Ich lasse den Server übrigens nicht laufen, sondern schalte ihn aus, wenn ich ihn nicht brauche. Was noch? Komression ist super. Obwohl ich haupsächlich nicht weiter komprimierbare Daten speichere (Musik, Videos), hat mir die interne Kompression 1% Speicherplatz beschert. Bei 4TB sind das ca. 40GB Platz gespart. Der Xeon langweilt sich trotzdem ein bisschen. Testweise habe ich gzip-9-Komprimierung getestet, da kam er dann schon ins Schwitzen."

> But I care about people trying to be morality police and discouraging someone blogging on their own website from writing rudely and writing politically incorrectly

This appears to be a strawman. You already admitted he violated the CoC - so he is in the wrong here.

I'm not sure what else there is to disagree with - that's been my assertion from the beginning.

If he wants to write childish stuff on his own website that is not covered by the CoC, that's his choice. I'm also free to express my opinion on that, but I never implied that he shouldn't be able to write whatever he wanted on his own personal blog.

Yes what? Both oxcaml and ocaml have compatible LGPL licenses so I didn't get your argument.

But even if that hadn't been the case, what exactly would be the problem? Are you saying that I cannot learn from a copyrighted book written by some respected and known author, and then apply that knowledge elsewhere because I would be risking to be sued for copyright infringement?

So you want people to talk about actions, not manners. Great.

> And don't even get me started with the people who come in here just to point out that Codeberg isn't perfect either.

Except actions they did with Codeberg...?

Sharing their experience about Codeberg isn't off-topic in a thread about a major repo migrating to Codeberg.

> The security you are thinking is a believable mirage. There are several users who have lost thousands of dollars to scammy appstore in app purchases/subsciptions and apple is doing shit to stop this.

And the plan to make this the consensus view is to ban Apple-style curated app stores. That seems to be cheating. When Apple convinced me their App store model was better than the alternative they had to use, y'know, persuasion.

Nokia sorta died, but at the time back in the 2000s Apple had to get through the entire phone industry to establish the iPhone. If the Europeans had any idea how to manage this sort of ecosystem they'd still be running the show. They had an amazing market position to begin with. They flubbed it because no-one in the entire continent seems to know how to run an app store! Now they're legislating their bad ideas in. It is a very European approach to commercial innovation and success.

> They are assuming that people _want_ automated content enough to pay for it.

People love money. That's not an assumption but established fact. Producing content manually is expensive.

You are way too emotional about this. Ads are a proven business model. We have AI models producing some pretty slick video and images now that are more or less publication ready quality. For next to nothing. The media industry not saving cost when they can is unlikely in my view.

Robotics is indeed another angle that OpenAI might do something with. I'd say that adds to my argument. That's a potentially really big market as well. But I don't consider OpenAI to be clearly leading that one. There are at least half a dozen companies active producing humanoid robots. But undeniably those might be a lot more useful with AI that understands and can interpret visual imagery.

> Like at the moment its great because its essentially free, but paying 200billion?

OpenAI needs to about 20-30x their current revenue over the next five years. A tall order. But these are large markets. It's not impossible. And when the financial times is ignoring major revenue sources it needs calling out.

I feel like that's the whole point of the OP. I agree with the overall post but mentioning the ICE relationship seems to detract from the main point.

"I hate GitHub because X Y and Z features are bad" is a good reason to move away; "I hate GitHub because one of their thousands of enterprise customers does not align with my political views" is not, in my opinion.

For the record, I do not support ICE

> These are people for God's sake. Empathy!

One man's empathy is another man's hatred.

From my perspective your take and actions in this thread is itself completely devoid of empathy.

The reason for colorful language breaking through professionalism is because there is real human emotion behind those words. Real pain and suffering, lost time in the life that will never be regained, an ever widening bald spot from the stress. That type of thing yearns to be expressed in a way that generic corpo speak is by design unable to communicate.

Your response to these emotions is to simply stick your head in the sand(aka refuse to read the blog post)? Worse yet, even without that context, you are here trying to convince those around you to also stick their heads in the sand?

To dream up scenarios where theoretical someones in a giant faceless corp might maybe possibly be offended? Instead of trying to listen and understand the person already in front of you who has actually been offended?

Again everything is a matter of perspective, but from mine your comments severely lack the empathy you supposedly call for.

I didn't say that. This is what I said -

"But yeah... CoC may apply to him too. So you've got a good point. I don't know if the CoC applies to their website. If you know more and if it does, a violation of CoC should be reported on their issue tracker."

Emphasis: "may", "I don't know if", "If you know more".

I tested my main email account, and it found the wrong country, and in that country the wrong person (wrong name).

Then I tested the email address of my boss, where it found a few fields of the company (address and business type), but not the person.

Then I tried a complete bogus address and still got a "success" but without meaningful data:

{ "success": true, "email": "hjd28ebsgis63kdnrzdg@gmail.com", "enrichment_data": { "entity_type": "person", "name": "Hjd", "age": null, "age_source": null, "gender": "other", "gender_source": "inferred", "city": null, "state": null, "country": null, "country_code": null, "occupation": null, "occupation_category": null, "role_seniority": null, "company": null, "company_category": null, "business_email": null, "personal_email": "hjd28ebsgis63kdnrzdg@gmail.com", "personal_phone": null, "work_phone": null, "high_school": null, "university": null, "instagram_handle": null, "instagram_followers": null, "tiktok_handle": null, "tiktok_followers": null, "twitter_handle": null, "twitter_followers": null, "youtube_handle": null, "youtube_followers": null, "linkedin_handle": null, "linkedin_followers": null, "interests": null, "interests_category": null }, "enriched_at": "2025-11-27T07:46:44.878Z", "credits_used": 0, "credits_remaining": 97, "cached": false, "request_id": "d5254e79-6f25-4fbf-b021-24539c97b636", "timestamp": "2025-11-27T07:46:44.878Z" }

I think it's healthy, even necessary, to utterly distrust microsoft (or any large compny, for that matter). And while I don't think it's a-ok to call an individual microsft employee a monkey by name I think it IS a-ok to say any microsoft product is 'written by monkeys' or any other suitable derogatory term.

The way github develops is steered by microsoft-the-company and not so much by it's individual employees. A company, especially such a huge one, is not to be trusted and can (should) be made fun of.

These corners are so close that they're going to have no practical difference when 3D printing them, the maximum deviation between G1 and G3 is only 0.1mm. You need to exaggerate the effect much more to show the difference.

> G3 continuous corners mean that the print head experiences smooth acceleration while printing such corners.

Axial acceleration is the key here, not just acceleration, that however does not matter if the controller does not output feedrate profiles with smooth acceleration to go along with it.

I am not sure what you are asking for here. You work in communications and the involved parties are slow to process messages. OK, so how would YOU be able to influence those parties to be faster? Do you make the software they use? Are you their service provider that owns the network or hardware? Are you trying to disrupt the whole industry with some new protocol? ... or what?

Apple cerifies/recieves licensencing fee for every thunderbolt cable. Apple only did move to usb-c when backlash is so high and eu law will certainly pass.

It is good for their pr to advertise that they moved to usbc because they wanted to rather than forced to by a government.Apple still tries/atleast tried to control usbc cable usage for iphones. Cables need to get certified.

Apple supported usbc on mac because it is superior and the impact to their revenue is very low. It is also jump from usb-a to usb -c

Anyone who has ever used Gitlab, or dare my foul mouth say Jenkins, has experienced a better system than Github actions.

Unless it's miraculously improved recently as it's been a couple years for me, they didn't even document their regex/pattern matching. Best I could find via searching was that it was whatever Ruby used, which wasn't any kind of real standard.

I don't want to call anyone names, but whoever defends said system deserves some ribbing.

Have you considered "reflinks"? Supported as of [OpenZFS 2.2](https://github.com/openzfs/zfs/pull/13392).

Haven't used them yet myself but seems like a nice use case for things like minor metadata changes to media files. The bulk of the file is shared and only the delta between the two are saved.
Show HN: Unified memory across all LLMs
by Ambroise75 | 2025-11-27 07:59:14+00:00
Problem: Switching between Claude, ChatGPT, and Gemini meant losing all context. Every time I changed models, I had to start from scratch.

Solution: I built Hiperyon, a Chrome extension that creates unified cross-LLM memory. You chat normally, and your context transfers instantly when you switch models.

Impact:

Save time when juggling multiple LLMs

No more repeating the same prompts

Faster, smarter interactions across tools

About me: I’m 19 and a solo founder. Built this in 2 months because context-switching between LLMs was killing my productivity.

Curious how you manage switching between LLMs, and what features you’d want next!

Email from OpenAI: Transparency is important to us, so we want to inform you about a recent security incident at Mixpanel, a data analytics provider that OpenAI used for web analytics on the frontend interface for our API product (platform.openai.com). The incident occurred within Mixpanel’s systems and involved limited analytics data related to your API account.

This was not a breach of OpenAI’s systems. No chat, API requests, API usage data, passwords, credentials, API keys, payment details, or government IDs were compromised or exposed.

What happened On November 9, 2025, Mixpanel became aware of an attacker that gained unauthorized access to part of their systems and exported a dataset containing limited customer identifiable information and analytics information. Mixpanel notified OpenAI that they were investigating, and on November 25, 2025, they shared the affected dataset with us.

What this means for you User profile information associated with use of platform.openai.com may have been included in data exported from Mixpanel. The information that may have been affected was limited to: Name that was provided to us on the API account Email address associated with the API account Approximate coarse location based on API user browser (city, state, country) Operating system and browser used to access the API account Referring websites Organization or User IDs associated with the API account

Seems weird to say, but I've been posting here for seventeen years now. And in that time, can I say that the quality of the discourse has slipped some? Well... if I'm being honest, probably yeah. A little. But at the same time, I can still honestly say that HN is still easily the best community of this sort on the 'net, at least that I'm aware of. OK, Lobste.rs has some merit, but the problem there is that the community there is arguably still a little too small, and you just don't get the variety and volume of interesting discussion you get here. But the level of discourse is high there as well.

Anyway, I find HN to be a wonderful refuge from a lot of the absurdity that's "out there" and I will happily throw in my own "Thanks, guys!" to dang and tomhow. And to pg for starting this whole thing back in the day.

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone, and here's to more years to come!

I wonder how routinely wearing compression socks interacts with this proposed mechanism.

Always thought it interesting that for certain diagnosis wearing them until end of life is indicated according to current guidelines and we don’t expect maladoption (weakening of the connective tissue).

To me, that is kind of the essence of contemporary AI. It's showy but lacks any point or spirit whatsoever. For instance, imagine the morphing was on beat with the music - suddenly it's actually quite neat. As is, it just looks like some fairly low effort prompts. Even the dancing seems relatively low effort and makes minimal effort to play to the scene or music in any way outside of a vague sort of liquidy theme. It just feels very disconnected.

Take, for contrast, the original Matrix. The reason the effects in that movie were revolutionary is not because of them just looking neat, but because they fit extremely well into the movie, and were supplemented by other effects that bumped them up to the next level. CG tends to age horrrrrribly (for anybody over 40, watch the original Jurassic Park again...) but the original Matrix lobby scene [1] still actually looks pretty decent, and I think that's because it had spirit. Note how so much love is put into the choreography, even small things like the footsteps being on beat with the background audio at the start of the scene, the military style marching drums when the paramilitary forces enter the scene, and more. It's just great.

There's no reason AI can't play a major role in these artistic pipelines, but that's the thing - there's a huge difference between making something showy, and making something that feels like it has spirit, like something that is art. And it's for this reason that I don't think artists are going anywhere.

To go through all 10^84 possible combinations in a billion years, around 10^67 combinations would have to be "tried" per second. So yeah, it doesn't seem feasible to have one and only correct combination of 140 nucleotides spontaneously appear.

But if the "solution" could be composed of a couple of separate smaller parts, that would be stable and linger for a long time, it would be much easier. 40 nucleotides have 10^24 combinations, so only 10^7 tries per second would be needed... over a billion years. And all of the necessary parts would need to be created and then meet in the same place and somehow combine. So, still not easy, but this case doesn't sound so outrageously improbable.

In the end, maybe it is extremely improbable for life to happen, and only one in 10^n suitable planets develops life, and Earth was just very lucky to experience this peculiar phenomenon.

Before posting your comments, please can you read the article first and do a little more research including what people with ADHD experienced in their life before they got their diagnosis and help?

Many get (mis-)diagnosed with depression where the meds are much less easy and effective compared to ADHD. Un-diagnosed ADHD often leads to self-medication with alcohol or drugs, two things with very adverse side-effects even though one of them is legal. Studies show that treating ADHD with medication does lower the risk of substance abuse: https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4147667/

Btw, there are no indications that ADHD medication has a positive long-term effect in non-medical use. If you can already focus your mind at the things before you without ADHD medication then you'd only waste your money if you took meds.

I used ServiceStack (also REST API) around ~2013 with C#. But in the end, a core benefit of .NET is that it is batteries-included, so I stick with the built-in Minimal API solution.

Plus, FastAPIs core selling point seems to be performance and speed - a solution to a problem that I don't currently have with that project, nor will encounter in the near future.
