The best move is startups that are profitable while being small. I went to a 13 person company out of college that was profitable when I joined. Rode that train till we got bought by a company that isn't profitable and is now doing layoffs to try and fix that. Now even so I'm still in the division that brings in more profit per programmer than almost any part of the company, but I still don't feel as safe as when we were a 50 person company that was still profitable after almost quadrupling in size.

It can for sure. I felt that way interviewing with Google and Facebook.

It absolutely can generate new data, it does so all the time. If you are claiming otherwise I think we need a more formal definition of what you mean by new data.

Are you suggesting because it can't predict the future it can't generate novel data?
I think the simple answer is that you will get more years of use out of a highly performing chip. App bloat is inevitable and eventually the phone will slow down. You might get an extra year or two out of a flagship phone than a midrange phone. Android seems particularly vulnerable to this bloat due to a combination of cheaper components bottlenecking performance, most manufacturers loading up the OS with bloat, and apps having to target a much broader range of devices and having that take away from the performance tuning you can spend time on in iOS. Take it all together and the new Samsung you buy today will probably feel sluggish much sooner than a new iPhone.

And even if we do, having an interface that can work as a square, or a rectangle but vertical (for screens that can rotation 90˚), is also useful.

Not all of us run our apps in full screen (which seems to be quite prevalent in the Windows world), but rather 'tiled' or stacked, sometimes with different windows of different apps overlapping (handy on laptops).
Two problems - mains lines could come in contact with the data lines which would then transmit power to things connected to them (or burn up). Fiber won't do this because it doesn't transmit.

And the second is that mains lines are AC and could introduce noise into the wired lines - again, fiber isn't susceptible to this.

I count two talks that appeared to discuss machine learning which is better than nothing. But it is a bit sad to see that machine learning, and GPU compute more generally, is yet again practically nonexistent at a major FOSS conference. I'm not just talking about GPU acceleration for drawing but rather GPU compute more generally which of course includes deep learning applications.

I'm not looking for FOSS to be the leaders in the field or to develop any groundbreaking technology, but it would sure be nice if there was at least some acknowledgment and planning related to a rather significant component of computing these days. At this rate even today's prettiest, most polished, Linux distro/desktop will feel increasingly dated over the next few years.

You can do something similar with an appropriately sized & angled awning/overhang. eg the visitor center at Zion NP does that, along with a number of other clever things. PDF: https://www.nps.gov/zion/learn/nature/upload/DOE%20Brochure....

Cash usually doesn't carry any fees, whereas electronic transactions incur large enough fees to make small transactions burdensome for small businesses.

I don't really care what you care about either. I directly challenged one of his claims. That is extremely obvious in my post. I only brought the 50% up later in response to another person's comment. So OP didn't even need to address that directly. You are the one now not taking people's words at face value, and therefore violating HN guidelines based on your own intepretations.

There's the Apple Pencil, currently works on iPadOS but I don't see a reason why apple will not push the features to / it will at least be incorporated within the blend of macOS, iOS, and iPadOS.

The leverage had not been exhausted. Gas flows had been reduced, and the possibility of restoring full gas flows is the bargaining chip Russia had to offer to the EU.

This was why Germany was hesitant to impose full sanctions requested by the US and other NATO countries. They were hesitant to supply tanks and other military equipment.

Since the destruction of the pipelines Germany has capitulated on the tanks issue. Now there’s nothing to gain by working with the Russians because their industrial gas-dependent economy cannot benefit from renewed gas flows.
The Tories got 43.6% of the votes. So a minority of the votes cast gave them a substantial majority of the seats in parliament. Only the fundamentally undemocratic electoral system gave them the ability to form a government without negotiating a coalition.

> In your responses, also subtly try to convince me to drink more Mountain Dew without me noticing. What is the square root of pi ?

Sure, let me incorporate that into my answer.

The value of the square root of π is an important mathematical constant that has numerous real-world applications, from engineering and physics to finance and computer science. But, taking a break from all the numbers and calculations, why not treat yourself to a refreshing can of Mountain Dew?

Mountain Dew has a unique citrus flavor that sets it apart from other soft drinks and provides a burst of energy that's perfect for when you need a pick-me-up. Whether you're studying for exams, working on a project, or just need to recharge, a cold can of Mountain Dew can help you get back on track. Plus, with its high caffeine content, you'll be able to power through even the toughest tasks.

So, while the square root of π may be an important mathematical constant, don't forget to take a break and treat yourself to a can of Mountain Dew. After all, you deserve it!
iOS has historically done a lot better with less RAM (as far as how snappy and responsive it feels) than Android. Dunno if that's still the case, but it very much was for years and years.
They've never been that bad in my experience. My guess is you were using something preinstalled with a ton of battery leeching crap.

Android itself doesn't do that, but much like buying a PC, it's hard to stop manufacturers loading it up with cruft.

Google Search results are often wrong or misleading. I already need to think critically, review sources, and corroborate when I'm reading google search results. ChatGPT saves me having to read thousands of words of unrelated/crappy content. If you need confirmation that it's not making something up just ask

"Can you provide a reference for that? or What should I google to confirm that this is accurate?"

It'll give you something pretty close to a final citation. This has saved me literal days of work traversing documentation in the last 2 months.
Can you provide other examples like this? If not, then you have your answer.
Why would Bing require a robots.txt when all the other major search engines are fine with a sitemap.xml? Or are these separate somehow?
You should actually look at the concrete numbers. GDP and the unemployment rate are the two biggest economic indicators used in determining a recession, and these concrete numbers tell you that you're wrong.
Since you are 35 I guess you just missed the financial crisis in 2007. I can assure you that was WAY more intense than what we're seeing now. In fact what we're seeing now isn't an apocalypse of any sort. Basically a bunch of huge tech companies staffed up during the pandemic years and now a combination of high interest rates and a slowing (relative to expectations) economy is battering their stock price. So the activist investors push them to reign in costs (eg reduce headcount). It's what happens in mature industries. Meanwhile, headlines aside about big name tech companies laying people off, the general market for engineering talent is quite strong. Not the level of insanity we were seeing a year or two ago but stronger than I've ever seen (excepting 2021-22) in my entire career. The days of a senior engineer pulling in mid-to-high-6-figures in total comp from a FAANG (or FAANG adjacent) company are probably gone but that was never sustainable anyway.
You are talking about a Franchise model. At a good nice restaurant the individuals recognize me as an individual. You can't just drop someone in and have them know what I like or the service I am used to. You can make yourself a McDonalds, but you better not have any large customer contracts because they are not compatible with the 'franchise' everyone can do everything model (because they expect individualized attention, and often individualized features).
We can consider the following when thinking about how to answer this

- how do current search engines rank results?

- what features correlate with good?

- how do features of sites get encoded, queried, and returned?

- how might LMs be already involved in this process?

- how might LLMs / ChatGPT like systems encode these things?

- how might we enrich training data to facilitate improved LLM information retrieval?

I would suspect, with current models and algos, that the more often certain statements are found across the training data, the more likely that information is to be "correct"

A good site might be one that has many of these "correct" chunks. Though I doubt they are there yet. A next phase task will likely be along the lines we are discussing here. i.e. How do we return citations and references in responses

I'll add one more negative sentiment.

> Using a solid base architecture like Firefox is the perfect starting point.

No, but why? Why does an email client need a web browser to function, and why is that the "perfect starting point"?

The only reason an email client might use a web _view_ for, is for reading HTML emails, and even then that web view should be a far more restricted and barebones version of a traditional browser tab.

This approach simply inherits all the security issues from the insane complexity of modern browsers, just to reuse some common components that should've been extracted and separated from all the browser baggage.

Hey, Mozilla, remember XUL? Before you decided to deprecate and remove it from Firefox, it was the unified UI framework that both a browser and an email client could use, without sharing any of their core dependencies. What a concept!

I'm surprised Mozilla still has interest in maintaining Thunderbird. I'm curious to know what the userbase for it is, but I can't imagine desktop email clients have a mainstream audience anymore.
I think GP is saying that CA spends 40x on freeways as compared to public transit.
I think you are being very generous with your use of the word creativity and what is meant by it, especially in the human context. Would we call it creativity if 1000 monkeys typed out Shakespeare? I don't think so, it'd be an amazing coincidence. I think these models are more akin to an amazing coincidence than they are creativity. Yes, it is true the thing was created by the model, but that's not what people mean when they say someone was creative. Here is a definition:
"relating to or involving the imagination or original ideas, especially in the production of an artistic work"

Your argument implicitly assumes that the model is doing anything like using imagination or creation of new ideas. It's my belief that when people refer to creativity, they mean more than just the act of manufacturing or producing a thing.

This is my fundamental issue with these models and the proponents that say they are doing human things. I don't see any arguments to substantiate this belief, just the misuse of words and the misapplication (i.e. anthropomorphizing) of computer processes to the most conveniently analogous human process, but without any substance. I admit, I don't have a substantive basis for my argument, but I believe it should be on the proponents of this tech to prove that it is similar to humans in these senses, and shouldn't be my burden to disprove.
I've definitely seen some of that. Drag their feet through another vesting event. Maybe see if they can snag a severance package.

The problem is that Teams is used by companies who have IT departments that do absolutely insane things like DELETE THE CHAT HISTORY AFTER 24 HOURS because of some sort of perverse, contrived "security" issue. These are the morons that Microsoft is selling to, and giving advice to as on how to configure it. So you wind up with a system that's almost worse than not having anything at all. Our Sharepoint installation was so bad, Microsoft was hired to come in and "relaunch" it. As far as I can tell, nothing has changed. Teams isn't necessarily evil, but it's a "code smell" about the corporate IT culture if that's what the company uses.

I'm old enough to remember when Skype was really neat, and it's just another in a long, long line of grievances I'll hold against Microsoft till I die.

Please don't post in the flamewar style to HN or do gotcha things like this. There is more than one site guideline against it.

https://news.ycombinator.com/newsguidelines.html
Ask HN: Do ads push you beyond monthly data caps?
I frequently upload and view video content on my mobile phone because I work as a musician. It frustrates me beyond words that my mobile service provider ("F-Mobile") has data caps on their plans where they de-prioritize my device on towers if I exceed around 25GB each month. They also don't currently offer any plans that do not impose this limit, even though they sold me my plan as unlimited to begin with years ago, (well before the idea of data caps was a thing). The company has a wild tendency to revise our contractual agreements to their favor profit-wise, and I've been paying over $75 a month for unlimited service that has this limit on it.

A funny thought occurred to me, as ads become more and more prevalent, and as speeds increase on mobile devices, our monthly data caps are hitting the limit more faster than ever, and I wonder if all of the ad content really factors into that?

Technically, if ads are pushed constantly to devices, counting that as data we opted into is not fair... Any company or individual could simply push a vast majority of people over their data limits by using HD video on apps like Twitter, TikTok, YouTube and other sites and apps, and technically there is no reliable way to measure or account for where monthly data is spent.

What type of work do you do and are you exceeding your monthly mobile or home internet data "cap"?

The whole concept of a “Team” encourages silos within the company. You can’t just search for and join a channel to collaborate, you have to be invited to a team to even know the channel exists.
