It's a good point, and maybe Broccoli isn't then as compelling as something like tofu, which contains nearly as much (and nearly as bio available) protein/calorie as lean steak.

I guess I'd challenge the 'no downsides' claim. Few people stick to super lean grass-fed cuts, and the picture on the site is even a ribeye steak :P

The protein density (g/kcal) of a ribeye steak is basically the same as tofu (I think like 14g/100kcal vs 11g/100kcal in tofu)

I know I'm moving the goal posts slightly (I admit I didn't know about bio availability, and see now that I have more to read up on e.g. Broccoli), but am learning as I discuss rather than arguing a fixed point.

The advantage is in both the speed of the shorthand when transferring the CSS you know you need for a layout from your brain to the element (flex items-center gap-2 vs. display: flex; align-items: center; gap: .5rem; - just try typing them both out), plus all the stuff inline styles can't do, such as variants based on screen size, colour scheme, user preference, pseudo-classes, parent/sibling state, etc. which you can get done in one place in one file in one sitting.

The money wasn't coming from that.

What does reading a great novel or starting a garden specifically accomplish? People do some things for reasons that aren't easily quantifiable. It seems to me that you are starting from the viewpoint that everything has to prove its worth before you accept it, even if millions of people before you have found it fulfilling and worthwhile, which does not seem productive.

If you had never read a book before, and someone was trying to convince you to try it, what could they point to that would fulfill all your criteria? Would it be enough to say it makes you smarter? That's not very specific. It sharpens your thinking? Makes you more empathetic? That would all seem like 'vague undecipherable gibberish' if you had no experience with it. They might resort to saying that it can connect you with a great dialogue that has been occurring for over two thousand years, but as you say, the fact that people have been doing it for thousands of years doesn't make it interesting or valuable.

Seeing a study that some part of the brain responds more quickly for up to 90 minutes after reading or that people with gardens live 0.28 years longer on average would not make me want to do those things more, because those are NOT the benefits of doing those things. You have to figure out what you're supposed to do with your one human life. Science is one tool, culture is another. Neither of them makes the other superfluous.

A random stall by the road in LA will charge you $10 flat and the same one in SF will ask for $20. Neither will have a screen for tips. THAT would make your SF purchases simply stratospheric. I have lived in Jersey City, NJ and New Orleans, LA. Neither one holds a candle to LA prices outside some random roadside vendors. Walmarts in greater LA are vastly more expensive than those in NOLA. But grocery shopping in SF is straight up nightmare where they dont seem to respect Murican money all that much if at all. LA could never.

Are you checking general topics, or also specifically ones that Musk has "fixed"?

My concern wouldn't so much be that general information is incorrect, but that anything Musk has opinions on - which seems to be a great number of topics, many of which are completely detached from his companies etc. - has an unacceptable chance of being deliberately manipulated. This is easy to spot when he tries to convince people of his "white genocide", but we don't know what other topics he's "fixed", and you specify that you don't verify all the time.

How do you know you're not being fed another "white genocide" if you don't verify? I wouldn't be as concerned with other AIs because we haven't seen as explicit manipulation as we've seen with Grok, but that seems to be explicitly built to distribute Musks opinions.

If I open a nfs doc with, let's say Libreoffice, will I not download whole file?

On a second thought, I think you are looking at webdav as sysadmins not as developers. Webdav was designed for document authoring, and you cannot author a document, version it, merge other authors changes, track changes without fully controlling resources. Conceptually is much like git needs a local copy.

I can't imagine how to have an editor editing a file and file is changed at any offset at any time by any unknown agent whitouth any type of orchestration.

>That is incorrect, actually. I find it relatively easy to adhere to keto diet. But the moment I try to introduce more "diverse" foods, I gain weight.

Keto diets might be easier to stick to than calorie counting or whatever, but the fact that you bothered with a diet at all means you're selecting for people who care about their health.
by jibe | 2026-01-07 18:23:45+00:00
Taking the cream out is (by some diet theories) bad. The fat in whole milk slows down the absorption of lactose, leading to a slower rise in blood glucose compared to skim milk. Whole milk is more satiating as well, because of the fat.

If you are trying to have some reasonable balance of fat, protein, and carbs in your diet, pushing kids from whole to skim milk is going to move the diet towards consuming more sugar/carbs, even if you have a seperate rule trying to tighten sugar consumption.
by tracker1 | 2026-01-07 18:23:53+00:00
Worth noting that like amino acids there are essential fatty acids as well, and most people have poor nutrition there... red meat isn't "only" saturated fat, but a fairly balanced fatty acid profile. You can have too much, but in moderate cuts it isn't too bad.

I usually suggest around 0.5g fat to 1g protein as a minimal, higher if keto/carnivore.

If you could get an AI to listen to the conversations that happen in your sphere of influence and simply jot down the problems it identifies over the course of the day/week/month/year, that in itself would be an amazing tool.

Doubly so if you could just talk and brainstorm while it's listening and condensing, so you can circle back later and see what raindrops formed from the brainstorm.

>I am not even sure what would be an appropriate remedy at this point.

It will have to be political and it's got to be fines/damages that are business impacting enough for companies to pause and be like A) Is it worth collecting this data and storing it forever? and B) If I don't treat InfoSec as important business function, it could cost me my business.

It also clear that certification systems do not work and any law/policy around it should not offer any upside for acquiring them.

EDIT: I also realize in United States, this won't happen.

Hi HN, I’m the author of KyubiSweep.

Why I built this: I found myself needing to scan my local ~/Downloads and ~/Documents folders for forgotten API keys (AWS, Stripe, etc.) that I’d downloaded months ago.

Existing tools like TruffleHog and Gitleaks are industry standards for CI/CD and git history, but I found them a bit heavy and complex for a quick, standalone "filesystem audit" on a laptop. I wanted a single binary that I could run once, see a visual risk report, and optionally "quarantine" (move) those insecure files to a vault.

Status: It’s MIT Licensed and completely open source. I’m currently looking for feedback on the concurrency model and would love to see if anyone else finds this "Personal Security Hygiene" use-case helpful.

Scaling works, the problem is that it is practically impossible to scale much. There is only so much energy, text data, GPUs, etc. The folly of scaling is that we are living in a finite world. The huge investments in AI for the past few years are probably hitting the practical limits of scaling for now.

I also feel like most insiders were fully aware of this fact, but it was a neat sales pitch.

> On the flip side, I firmly believe a lot of the issues that we are having societally with regards to hormone imbalance, mental health and fertility issues really comes down to insufficient intake of essential fatty acids which include some saturated fats.

Why werent those issues in the late 19th century? We certainly ate very, very little meat and didn't have any fertility issues.

I'm saying that, but even nowadays, the countries with the highest fertility are those where people eat the less meat.

The issue is that Rust proponents automatically assume that if you write enough C code, there will be memory related bugs.

In reality, this is not the case. Bad code is the result of bad developers. Id rather have someone writing C code that understands how memory bugs happen rather than a Rust developer thinking that the compiler is going to take care of everything for them.
by lostlogin | 2026-01-07 18:25:11+00:00
Is this with or without the increase in saturated fat he recommends? Or more red meat?

Health policy decisions would ideally be based on some sort of evidence, not the quackery he spouts.

Yes, some of his changes are an improvement.
Most aren’t.

At what point did they make it _worse_? Tailwind didn't remove any existing functionality here. What they did was refuse to merge a PR while they're trying to figure out how to navigate a difficult financial problem, all while being fully transparent about what's going on, and saying that they're open to merging the PR if/when they manage to get things together.

This is very different from, say, the minio situation, where they were actively removing feature before finally closing development down entirely. Whether tailwind will end up going down this route, time will tell. But as of right now, I find this reading to be quite uncharitable.
by deadbabe | 2026-01-07 18:25:23+00:00
The truth is, business opportunities are rarely eternal, usually they are just an opportunity to make money within a short window of time, such as a decade or two. Sometimes even shorter than that, perhaps even only a year or two.

For Tailwind, time’s up.

If the engineering team could not be directed to build new products that bring in revenue, then there is no need for them anymore, the opportunity has been exhausted for its maximum yield. Are you going to squeeze blood from a stone?
by tylerchilds | 2026-01-07 18:25:36+00:00
Yeah, I’m not advocating for css or against tailwind

Just sharing that the root cause is most developers don’t want to pick up an additional syntax when they already have the fundamentals

The main problem is the premise of tailwind

Every single web design on earth is a compound opinion on like a few hundred popular properties and values

They put all that in one style sheet

Which became the one style sheet on earth

Which made it possible to summon all those styles directly from within our apps

Tailwind is like the chess of utilities. There’s only so many opening and closing moves that running a business on it is incredibly difficult, given supply and demand.
by bkorte | 2026-01-07 18:25:41+00:00
There is no bait and switch and it's ridiculous to suggest there is.

They have a free product and a paid product. They've used the documentation as an awareness channel for the paid product. The paid product influences and pays for the free product. A tail as old as time.

They're not asking you to buy the paid product and they're not saying they are going to make it worse. Did you even read thread? He literally says "I totally see the value in the feature and I would like to find a way to add it."

Not prioritizing it now does not make the product worse, it just doesn't make it better in this particular way today.

How is this hard to understand?

Several maps created to assist the agency with decisions — like where to open new offices and allocate certain resources — were made public through incorrect privacy settings between 2021 and 2025 ... the mapping website was unable to identify who viewed the maps ... implemented a secure map policy that prohibits uploading customer data to public mapping websites.

So a state employee/contractor (doesn't say) uploaded unaggregated customer records to a mapping website hosted on the public internet?
by system2 | 2026-01-07 18:26:00+00:00
Maybe they don't, since CSS is the easiest to tap into in terms of programming. Database-driven software still heavily relies on seasoned engineers and cannot be messed with AI.

For something basic like CSS, it is true. Ask ChatGPT or Claude Code to come up with any Tailwind template, and it will spit out within seconds for free, and even integrate it into the project effortlessly. This approach does not apply to heavy software such as a comprehensive CRM or another type of CRUD platform.

In the US where I live, professional mold testing companies have big expensive machines which supposedly count spores in the air. The results always come back negative, unless the space is visibly super contaminated. This is because mold is usually in the walls and these services are called in after a water issues to absolve landlords of financial responsibility for the extensive work and expense it would take to actually solve mold problems. It’s a nasty business.

We had our place professionally tested, got negative results, then tore the place down to the studs anyway (eventually, after the Petri dish tests described above) and found all sorts of mold.

> But the reality is that 75% of the people on our engineering team lost their jobs here yesterday because of the brutal impact AI has had on our business.

Not a Tailwind user but I really appreciate the honesty. Is the brutal impact of AI as a cause established though? It appears creation of new web sites is down, but that doesn't mean the business has gone to LLMs like suggested; it could as well mean that there are simply no sites being created at all.

Especially as

> Traffic to our docs is down about 40% from early 2023 despite Tailwind being more popular than ever.

and

> the docs are the only way people find out about our commercial products

ie. data is lacking.

I still find it suspicious. "Moderate" protein sounds great, because "moderate" anything sounds great. The question is what "moderate" actually means. I think the people that encourage more protein are generally suggesting that the guidelines for "moderate" are actually too low.

Tangent, but it reminds me of how people consider a "balanced" diet to be 1/3rd protein, 1/3rd fat, 1/3rd carbs. It sounds good, until you consider the purpose of carbs. Carb's aren't inherently bad of course, but they have glucose which stimulates an insulin response, resulting in storing more food as fat. And considering how many obese people we have, the "balanced" diet seems to be very unbalanced. The thing with carbs is, you really only need to take them in if you're very actively doing anaerobic exercise. If you're doing that, great! Then you should eat carbs. If you're sitting at a desk 8 hours a day and not exercising at all, then you really don't need much in the way of carbs at all.

Higher fiber seems, at best, to not move the needle much at all. At worst you could irritate various gut linings. Fiber in things like fruit can be good because it moderates the absorption of fructose, but I generally don't think you need to supplement fiber at all.
by ryandrake | 2026-01-07 18:26:31+00:00
Yea, for obvious reasons, it seems to be best at code that transforms data: text/binary input to text/binary output. And where the logic can be tracked and verified at runtime with sufficient (text) logging. In other words, it's much better close loop than open loop. I tried to help it by prompting it to please take a screen capture of its output to verify functionality, but it seems LLMs aren't quite ready for that yet.
by risyachka | 2026-01-07 18:26:43+00:00
What most don’t realize is that this will happen to most businesses in all categories as more people rely on ChatGPT and Claude for discovery.

No discovery - no business.

And same with ads.if OpenAI decides not to add ads - prepare for even faster business consolidation. Those businesses preferred by llms will exponentially grow, others will quickly go out of business

The big question with such foods is are they worse for you just in and of themselves, or do they tend to promote obesity through inducing people to eat more? For the most part, research seems to suggest that as far as weight gain is concerned, calorie is a calorie (whether from fat, carbs, or protein), but some foods seem to induce people to eat more in general, compared to others. (highly processed and high-sugar food seeming to be some of the worst in this regard, but it's not clear exactly what it is about highly processed food that promotes this).

War-risk insurance is a thing [1]. You could probably buy a business-interruption policy with a line item for revocations. Adding a tariff contingency to customer contracts and/or engaging with vendors on a fixed-price tariff-notwithstanding basis transfers tariff risk.

Deportatios and the collapse of a free-trade zone are not mitigatable. De-leveraging from products that don't have a strong domestic alternative would be the only options there.

All costs. None easy. But all doable. (Not saying it's good business.)

I was roaming around the rural Western US last year.

If I saw that there was a Walmart in town, I perked up. Consistent, low-priced and large number of grocery items. Likely better than an unknown, variable, often poorly stocked local grocery (or worse, groceries at a gas station/convenience store).

I also liked seeing the economic diversity of customers that I wouldn't see at home.

In larger cities, I'll choose other groceries if I can for better selection, if not better prices.

Of course, except for maybe Sprouts, all the places I shop emphasize ultra-processed corporte interests.

I do think it makes some sense in limited capacity.

Have some half decent model integrated with OS's builtin image editing app so average user can do basic fixing of their vacation photos by some prompts

Have some local model with access to files automatically tag your photos, maybe even ask some questions and add tags based on that and then use that for search ("give me photo of that person from last year's vacation"

Similarly with chat records

But once you start throwing it in cloud... people get anxious about their data getting lost, or might not exactly see the value in subscription

Well, meet https://basecoatui.com -- and there's more where that came from.

So, ehhm, no, I'm not ignoring the salient part of your comment: you are ignoring the entire point of my post, which is that if Tailwind had a non-React monetization strategy, things maybe, possibly, might have worked out better.

That could be malfunctioning hardware, turned off AIS, or a gap in recording. Smaller deviations from a line are most likely GPS jitter. AIS is transmitted over VHF. Terrestrial stations listen for the transmitted AIS messages to record them for public consumption.

Not that I have seen, which is probably a big part of the disconnect. Mostly it's tribal knowledge. I learned through experimentation, but I've seen tips here and there. Here's my workflow (roughly)

> Create a CLAUDE.md for a c++ application that uses libraries x/y/z

[Then I edit it, adding general information about the architecture]

> Analyze the library in the xxx directory, and produce a xxx_architecture.md describing the major components and design

> /agent [let claude make the agent, but when it asks what you want it to do, explain that you want it to specialize in subsystem xxx, and refer to xxx_architecture.md

Then repeat until you have the major components covered. Then:

> Using the files named with architecture.md analyze the entire system and update CLAUDE.md to use refer to them and use the specialized agents.

Now, when you need to do something, put it in planning mode and say something like:

> There's a bug in the xxx part of the application, where when I do yyy, it does zzz, but it should do aaa. Analyze the problem and come up with a plan to fix it, and automated tests you can perform if possible.

Then, iterate on the plan with it if you need to, or just approve it.

One of the most important things you can do when dealing with something complex is let it come up with a test case so it can fix or implement something and then iterate until it's done. I had an image processing problem and I gave it some sample data, then it iterated (looking at the output image) until it fixed it. It spent at least an hour, but I didn't have to touch it while it worked.

> Ah, looks like it was somewhat superseded by RFC 4918, but we’re not going to tell you which parts! How about those extension RFCs? There’s only 7 of them…

This is a major complaint I have with RFCs.

If you want to know the current standard for a protocol or format you often have to look at multiple RFCs. Some of them partially replace parts of a previous RFC, but it isn't entirely clear which parts. And the old RFCs don't link to the new ones.

There are no less than 11 RFCs for HTTP (including versions 2 and 3)

I really wish IETF published living standards that combined all relevant RFCs together in a single source of truth.

Hi,

I’ve been building a fundamental financial data API focused on US-listed equities.

The goal was to make long-term analysis and valuation easier without the cost or complexity of traditional data providers. The API provides normalized income statements, balance sheets, cash flow statements, and key ratios with consistent historical coverage going back to 2010.

The data is generated from public SEC filings and processed through an internally developed pipeline to ensure historical consistency across changing taxonomies and restatements.

There’s a free tier for exploration, and paid plans for higher limits and bulk access.

I’d love feedback on:
- Data coverage or fields you’d expect
- API ergonomics / docs clarity
- Pricing or free tier limits

Happy to answer any technical questions about methodology or tradeoffs.
