Version control?

Quite a few with their domain specific naming conditions, constraints and workflows.

For example Fusion 360
https://www.autodesk.com/products/fusion-360/blog/fusion-360...

Then there's stuff like "Tekla model sharing"
https://www.tekla.com/products/tekla-model-sharing

Onshape
https://cad.onshape.com/help/Content/versionmanager.htm

Etc

The requirement to a) collaborate b) version the work is quite old and well supported industrially. Depending on the application it may not "look or feel" that nice of course.

I guess the key thing is these are not "code first" offerings.

I really like sticky notes concept which is all your todo items and simple notes are always on the top of your screen. There are a lot of stuff trying to rob your attention, and Apple Notes, Notion and other products cannot be pinned on the top(I really don't like switching among apps ). Thus, I create Tada. Maybe it can help you to get your attention back and keep delivering.

It's now quite raw. So pull requests and features requests are all welcome.

By the way, there are a lot of similar apps in the market. Some of them are quite expensive. Tada provides a free and open source option for people who care about productivity.

Well, was. Then Facebook AI made a side-step, and stopped focusing on downloadable LLM models, and Ollama is now trying to squeeze their users so they can show profits. r/LocalLlama is also a former shadow of itself, with the top moderator trying to move the community off reddit.

Seems Llamas will disappear as quickly as they became trendy.

I disagree, NYC was OK but LA and SF specifically, the average quality of food was pretty bad. There were absolutely good options, plenty of them, but on average, just walking around, seeing something that looks good and checking Google Maps reviews (including reading them), had 0 guarantee of the food being of any quality.

Compared to London and Paris where you're guaranteed a good meal in any random place as long as the google reviews are ~3.5+. And even for the lower, the complaints are usually that the service is slow or rude, not that the food is shit tier quality. I mean 4.9 noted places with ramen that tastes like margarine and uses canned vegetables, or where the meat tastes bad.

Wait a minute, there is a payment surface you can build in iOS(e.g. iirc a stripe demo video from the epic ruling last year), where one can pay outside the apple in-app payment method. The surface could specifically get you to your own web view(i.e. your own domain or stripe's surface) for payments. The bigger idea, I thought, would not let apple figure out a company's take was, to ask them to pay up.

How does this shakedown work for companies/orgs that have large number of paying iOS DAUs?

What am I not getting here?

Coming up next: Tesla to end production of all cars and sell only NFT/Crypto with pictures of Cybertruck going to the moon/mars. This is the only company which provides Speculation as a Service. With a complete monopoly on SPaaS, the market cap will skyrocket to $20 Trillion. Elon will be given Nobel peace prize for saving mankind from itself as well as physics.

The US is heavily over-medicated, for sure. The pharma reps are very intimate with our doctors and it expresses as one might expect. If you go to the doc with nearly any significant complaint, you will very likely come away with some drugs. But it is not all doctors; people want easy fixes that do not require any change in habits. Not an easy problem to solve, systemically.

In UK homes, guest rooms often double as storage for the hosts. A 70 cm wide top surface acts as a vital "landing zone" for a guest's personal items. By choosing a white chest of drawers in UK with a scratch-resistant finish, you protect the investment from jewellery, watches, or tech. The five-drawer vertical stack ensures that the floor remains clear, which is essential for making a small room feel like a suite.

Activate controlled folder access and filesystem access to see what is trying to change every time loading and using a llm.
Most LLM models are programmed to call home at first loading.
Then the libs you are loading them with also log and smt looking to send bytes (check with firewall for details).

HugstonOne uses Enforced Offline policy/ Offline switch because of that.
Our Users are so happy lately :) and will realize it clearly in the future.

> Real FSD for me at least, means I can sit in a 'car' open a laptop and work.

Sure. Meanwhile, I'm literally using FSD 90% of the miles driven in my Y (the last update added a counter). I can appreciate a non-existant better product as much as the next guy, but as it is my daily commute is vastly improved.

FSD isn't perfect (probably about 90%!), but it's everyday amazing and useful.

This mimics numbers from Denmark, where Model 3 had a failure rate of 20-25% after four years a couple of years ago, and last year the first Model Y's had to go through their first 4 year inspection and 45% failed. 34% of Model 3's failed last year.

For comparison: Last year VW ID4 had a failure rate of 2%, and the average for _all_ electric cars (no matter age, including Teslas) was 7% failure.

Causes: Breaks, wheels, steering, and a few more critical things along those lines.

Objectively speaking, Tesla cannot manufacture cars that live up to European standards.

They are citing a blog post from the German magazine Auto Bild, which talks about the Auto Bild special "TÜV Report" edition. They are probably three or four layers of indirection removed from the original report produced by the TÜV itself.

I found a mention of the report on this page from the ADAC:
https://www.adac.de/news/tuev-report-2026/

I think they mention suspension, brake and light related issues.

For those unaware, the current recommended way to develop "native" apps for Windows is to use WinUI3, distributed with the WindowsAppSDK.

Unlike regular Windows SDK, which lets you make use of the functionality provided by the OS, the WindowsAppSDK is entirely separate from the OS and requires the installation of a separate runtime on the user's machine. It also requires installing nuget packages on your machine to use it so good luck if you'd rather use straight CMake instead of Visual Studio.

As far as I can tell, there's no backwards or forwards compatibility, so the end user has to install the specific version of the SDK your app uses, or you need to bundle all the hundreds of DLLs with your app yourself.

A sane person might ask why not just use Qt (smaller distribution!) or Electron (about the same size) at that point, since they're cross platform and you can easily get fluent themes that look the same as WinUI3?

As far as I can tell there's no sane negative answer to this question. It's not like your app's "fluent theme" will be updated alongside the OS, it's no different from Qt or Electron in this regard.

There's no reason to do "native" windows development anymore, unless you mean using raw Win32 with no dark theme or a custom UI built on Direct2D/3D/Write. And if you are doing that, there's absolutely 0 reason to use this CLI.

There are a couple of things that identify talent in the qualified space:

* Peer reviews in the industry

* Publications in peer reviewed journals

* Owner/partner of a firm of licensed professionals

* Quantity of surgeries, clients, products, and so forth

* Transparency around lawsuits, license violations, ethics violations, and so forth

* Multiple licenses. Not one, but multiple stacked on top of a base qualification license. For example an environmental lawyer will clearly have a law license, but will also have various environmental or chemistry certifications as well. Another example is that a cardiologist is not the same as a nurse practitioner or general physician.

Compare all of that against what the typical developer has:

* I have been employed for a long time

More elite developers might have these:

* Author of a published book

* Open source software author of application downloaded more than a million times

Those elite items aren't taken very seriously for employment consideration despite their effort and weight compared to what their peers offer.

I don't really understand what the author is arguing for here. Yes, tech companies (and everyone else) hired a ton of people when money was cheap, and now they are doing lay offs. I suppose the alternative would be employing people for life? Or that it should be costlier to fire people (ie like in Europe)?

Also, if you are using AI to even write such a simple blog post, then perhaps corporations are indeed using it for all kinds of purposes too, and that undoubtedly reflects on their hiring.

> "Axle suspensions suffer under the high weight of the drive battery, and the brakes are rarely used due to regenerative braking," Bühler told ADAC. "This can lead to defects in the brake discs, and there is a risk of reduced braking performance."

I had a 5th gen Camaro that had terrible brakes because I could never get the rotors/pads hot enough during normal operation to properly "clean" them. They were so big you just couldn't do it without visiting the freeway or a race track. I had to get the rotors machined or replaced about once a year because the car mostly went to the grocery store.

I think the best thing you can do is to occasionally stand on the brakes as hard as you can from >60mph. In a heavy EV you probably only need to do this once a week/month.

There is something about mechanical contrivances and rare use. Complex machines tend to get sloppy when they aren't exercised regularly. The best way to prove a machine will work correctly is to use it frequently.

> Is this once again because electric vehicles don’t get pulled into a mechanics shop every 10,000 miles for their oil to be changed and coincidentally inspected at the same time for mechanical defects that could be caught before they get pulled into a TUV annual inspection?

Last time I saw a TÜV report it was that electric cars show up with a) rather little service checks in between and b) they are too heavy for the axels and that causes wear compared to a regular car.
by fabian2k | 2026-01-29 13:41:37+00:00
Looks like the Tesla Model Y has roughly the same amount of faults after less than 3 years as the top cars in this comparison have after 11-13 years (https://www.tuvsud.com/de-de/publikationen/tuev-report/maeng...). That's not a good look.

I also don't buy the argument brought up several times in the comments here that this is caused by the lack of regular inspections. This is about very new cars, there shouldn't be that many issues to catch in inspections when the car is less than 3 years old.

Is this just for the big guys like FANG, AI companies?

There is huge part of tech market that is just humdrum blue color software. Keep the ERP system running, build a new efficiency report, trouble shoot why the payroll missed bob last week because of a un-validated text entry field.

Or because of the years of zero interest, tons more people went into software, so now it is over-populated, and thus puts pressure on regular hum-drum software jobs.

Honestly, I kind of feel the problem the author is trying to bring up, but I would still rather use News Explorer, set up some rules, reflect on my priorities, and go to therapy.

Attention economy is real and people’s monkey brains are being systematically abused, but at least in this very specific case, feeling bad because of urgency artifacts is just a skill issue.

The UI of RSS readers isn’t just a case of influence by adjacency. It actually reflects the underlying structure of RSS, that is a collection of feeds with multiple issues over time. Sure it can be revolutionized, but there are just so many other problems with the users need to focus on.

It’s not that the product lacks the potential of anesthesia over those pains. It’s just that when those particular pains happen, you need to face them head-on and not go around it with some fancy tech.

It is just absurd how such a powerful tool, a remnant of the OG internet that somehow survives, such as this tool for content distribution without algorithmic manipulation, makes people feel bad because how effective it is at bringing abundance.

Anxiety is just a disease and in this case a fancy UI is just a hit of opium. The problem is still there. Might as well just deal with it.

The Irish NCT results for 2024 show high failure rates for Teslas in:

- Vehicle safety and Equipment
- Steering and Suspension
- Side Slip
- Wheels and Tires

and to a lesser extent

- Lights
- Lighting and Electrical

The overall failure rate is over 50% (697/1301), which is above the overall failure rates of just under 50%.

Note that the oldest Tesla is 2015, and most are 2020+ which is significantly newer than a good chunk of the cars on the road here.

Also note that in my personal experience of ~10 NCTs, I've had 3 nominal failures which were stupid trivial things that aren't actually maintenance issues. (1, extra seat not in car. 2, tent peg fell in and folding seat didn't lock in place. 3, folding seat wasn't up when tested, as well as at least one where my mechanic swears that they screwed it up (steering rack boot not attached))

The project looks great! I browsed the codebase and enjoyed how much documentation there is about the user-facing and internal workings. I'm not familiar with the subject matter but I do love me a DSL, so the language design aspect was interesting to learn about.

I was curious how the language compiles to C, what the resulting code does, and how one interacts with it. It took a while of reading to find it, so maybe this could be linked from places where compilation is mentioned. This part is my favorite, it's cool how it works. Especially since you mention "anti-abstraction", I like seeing how the DSL maps to C.

I was surprised to see this:

> If joins are necessary, we learned to consider breaking down the query and move complex join logic to the application layer instead.

We often try to leverage the power of the DB to optimize joins on our behalf to avoid having to create them. At a certain point, I guess you wind up having to pull this back to your layer to optimize "the one job" of the database.

I jest, but only slightly. We don't just want to persist data, but link it for different purposes, the "relational" part of RDBMS. Good to know there's still room to grow here, for PostgreSQL and the DB industry.

I don't know. We don't have any such thing as small claims court in Germany, but my expectation would be that judges in low-level courts will try their very best not to get noticed for setting any kind of precedent whatsoever. The only thing that's going to happen if you rule against Apple in a low-level court is that they will go into revision, and carrying a high probability that the higher-level judge will overturn the decision and make the lower-level judge look bad in the process.

Also, any kind of effort to annoy someone by bringing coordinated actions in lots of venues all at the same time is probably abuse of process.

I somewhat disagree, because at the end of the day he still has to take responsibility for the fuckup and that will matter in terms of dollars and reputation. I think this is also why a lot of roles just won't speed up that much, the bottleneck will be verification of outputs because it is still the human's job on the line.

An on the nose example would be, if your CEO asked you for a report, and you delivered fake data, do you think he would be satisfied with the excuse that AI got it wrong? Customers are going to feel the same way, AI or human, you (the company, the employee) messed up.

That game is 7 years old.

But it seems to me spoilers are mostly for narrative puzzle games, or secret twist / riddle puzzle games. There are a lot of puzzle games where you either can't look up the solution (games like Demon Bluff) or where looking up the solution/hints mostly spoils one level at worst (e.g. Baba is You).

I think the main problem is when OP wrote:

Instead of

I am OK with people publishing new ideas to the web as long as they are 100% honest and admit they just had an idea and asked an AI to build it for themselves. That way I can understand they may not have considered all the things that needs to be considered and I can skip it (and then prompt it myself if I want to, adding all the things I consider necesary)

“Growth is what makes a cell a cell.”

Until it turns into cancer because of unrestrained growth.

Like it or not capitalism is a part of an ecosystem. We’ve been “educated” to believe that unrestrained growth in profits is what makes capitalism work, and yet day after day there are fresh examples of how our experience as consumers has gotten worse under capitalism because of the idea that profits should forever be growing.

Big fan! Was like magic at first but now I have a big bunch of Aptfiles to deal with instead... Currently working on solving that with the next-generation tool apt-bundle-bunch, which has a simple declarative format to manage your apt-bundle projects in an Aptbundlefile.

That's incredibly reductive. I'm sure some people's depression can boil down to a matter of perspective, but it's naive to extrapolate that to everyone with depression.

I'm incredibly optimistic and am content with my position in life. My default state is being mindful of the present and I don't think about things too far into the future. I very rarely ever feel stressed out over things in life.

However, none of that changes the fact that I feel completely empty and find no joy in things. Interests are nearly non-existent, emotions dialed to 1, and the only thing I'm motivated to do is lay in bed staring at the ceiling... unless I'm on sertraline.

Admittedly that's just anecdotal, but I worked in a clinical neuroscience lab researching treatments for severe treatment-resistant depression (read: people who tried so many options including CBT that they even tried electroshock therapy). The only thing that helped those subjects was a regimen of personalized neuroimaging-guided transcranial magnetic stimulation for 10 minutes every hour for 10 hours every day for a week. Even then, it wasn't permanent. Some saw improvement for months, others only weeks.

For some people, it's not just a matter of "perspective".

He's not just the leader, he's the primary beneficiary, and he's a blatant white supremacist. He's arguably responsible for the deaths of over 1 million people world wide from his short tenure shutting down USAID[0]. So yeah, I'd say its more than fine to take pleasure in his failings.

Show HN: Candid – Your front-row seat to politics
by ericatcandid | 2026-01-29 13:45:19+00:00
Hi HN! I’m Eric, the creator of Candid.

I built Candid because I was exhausted trying to follow politics across 10 different apps, sites, and news sources - and still felt like I didn’t actually know what was going on on any of the issues I cared about.

Political information is everywhere now, but it’s so fragmented across socials (Truth Social, X, TikTok, Instagram, Blue Sky, etc), government sites, and legacy media that it’s become harder than ever to follow. At the same time, Gen Z & Millennials like me will become the majority of voters by 2028. And we care more about getting news on issues rather than political party labels. The data exists. The modern interface doesn’t.

So my cofounder and I built Candid - a nonpartisan political media app that makes politics easy and fun to follow, personalized to your issues with privacy, and way less toxic. We present primary source political content through custom news feeds built around your issues.

What you can do in Candid:
- Trump Feed & Trumpy Score: a daily 0–10 score and summary of Trump’s activity across platforms, including Truth Social
- Personalized Feed: Track the issues you care about across Republicans, Democrats, and Independents in a private setting. No follows needed!
- Explore Feed: see what’s happening across the full political landscape
- Politician Profiles: quick snapshots of who’s who in politics (e.g. cabinet members), their roles, and their backgrounds

Simply put, my goal is to make politics digestible again by turning noise into clarity - so you can see what’s happening, who said what and when, and what it actually means.

I’d love your feedback and thoughts!

Tea, especially green tea, doesn’t have the same caffeine bioavailability as coffee – otherwise people would abuse it just as much as coffee.

I’m quite sensitive to caffeine, yet I can drink green tea all day without noticing much effect, while even a light coffee or a caffeine pill is clearly noticeable. I can also drink tea before going to sleep without any problems.

> There is something about mechanical contrivances and rare use. Complex machines tend to get sloppy when they aren't exercised regularly. The best way to prove a machine will work correctly is to use it frequently.

I see this a lot on other sites where people talk about buying an old Landrover or Range Rover as a "weekend car". That's never going to work.

My nearly-30-year-old Range Rover had the fewest problems when I was putting around 3000 miles a month on it, all year round. If it sat long enough for the engine to cool to ambient, sure as shit you'd find something wrong the next time you started it.
