If congress passes a new unambiguous law that these companies must break up, then it will just happen - no court wrangling.
That would still need enforcement. Google and Apple would need to adopt a no-strikes policy and remove apps which send a marketing notification to the "your food has arrived" notification channel.
PayPal is an enormous percent of total sales at my company. We accept all sorts of other payments types. So we drop PayPal and then what exactly? Suffer the loss of customers?
This example is not interactive. Of course it doesn't need state, it is essentially playback of an animation.

John Carmack once pointed out, procedural generation is essentially just compression. Video playback only has time as state too.

This is just pointing out that if you have data to play back, all you need is a time variable for state. If you want to make that data procedurally (or somewhere in between by embedding a curve) you can do that too.

This does not have anything to do with programming in general.
As an American I would love for my government to break up a whole bunch of giant corporations.
A few years ago, I took my son to the CS:GO Major Championship in my city. It was held in a university's arena, and my son was excited to go. Even though I'm a gamer myself, I was very "meh" about being up to my armpits in e-sports fanatics, and was expecting something like LAN party writ large.

I was completely unprepared for the spectacle I beheld when we walked into the arena. It was an atmosphere to rival any professional sports events, complete with over-the-top lights, announcers, and a boisterous crowd. It was completely awesome, with crowd oohing, aahing, and cheering to amazing plays.

2023 State of Open Source key findings and analysis
In order to affect monetary policy, the Fed now pays 4.9% interest[1] on $3.03trn of reserve balances[2], which is now costing them approx $150bn/yr run rate. Just 12 months ago they paid 0.15%.

This $150bn cost is a consequence of quantitative easing massively expanding reserve balances, and those reserve balances still existing in a period of high inflation which is being fought with high interest rates. The obvious solution is quantitive tightening to shrink the quantity of reserves, however there's justifiable concern about the effects this could have on the still-fragile banking system.

This is real money to the US taxpayer. The Fed used to remit $100bn a year to the US treasury, which it has now stopped doing. Instead, the Fed is sending this money to the US commercial banks which hold US reserves.

The thing is, technology (including apps and websites), is supposed to help its users. If you want to make room for something in your life (running or any form of exercise, or films, or news, or a particular genre of shopping/retail, etc, etc), then you're also theoretically open to the technology helping you attend to the topic/problem at the frequency/rate and depth that is helpful for you.

The problem is that messaging/notifications don't do that 99% of the time. But not because they can't in theory. It's because the tooling for that technology (i.e. CRM platforms like Braze, OneSignal, CleverTap, MoEngage, Salesforce Marketing Cloud, Iterable, etc) don't make it possible for the app/website (the operators who manage the channel).

Lifecycle notifications and CRM are primarily designed as rule-based systems and they're manually managed. The result is Crap. Crap copy, crap timing, crap delivery.

That's why my cofounders and I started Aampe (www.aampe.com)- to make messaging actually useful for people.

I wrote a blog post about this in the context of food delivery notifications here: https://www.aampe.com/blog/aampe-for-food-delivery-app-notif...

And here are 2 videos about the infrastructure necessary to make notifications work at a user-level, at scale.

You've moved the goalpost multiple times. Are you concerned about the OP's ability to command top dollar for their current talents or that they have a job at all (you've expressed both), or the OP's feeling of fulfillment/motivation in what they do?

I go back to what I said before. If your fulfillment in life is centered around work, you need to re-evaluate. If the OP has no motivation to improve themselves for the sake of improving themselves, that's an OP problem that existed WAY before LLMs. Whether it's weightlifting, programing, or basketweaving, the OP needs to find some benchmarks for life that come from self motivation.

That being said, the OP will continue to be employed. Rather than miring in the existential crisis of "not being able to continue operating in the manner they do today", the OP needs to adapt and align their skills with this new tool. LLMs are tools.

It's just right for home use where you're not making lots of espresso. It's simple, has basically nothing to break, wastes extremely little energy, takes up very little space on the counter, etc..

And once you get good at using it you can do lots of things that require very very expensive boiler machines to do and make very good espresso.

Given the notoriously grainy mouth feel of aeropress coffee, and the sheer joy I've had out of proper espresso made with even less-expensive home machines (e.g. a Rancillo Silvia, to say nothing of nicer home machines like Rockets), I'm utterly stunned by the weirdness of this assertion.

What's insane is still trusting PayPal at this point. They've had this tendency to randomly block accounts for over a decade now. I wouldn't want to have them as a payment option at all, but I definitely don't want them as my only payment option.

It's interesting how despite classical music having such a surge of listenership (thanks largely in part due to video games), they've been unable to do much about it. You contrast this with the likes of the vinyl industry, which has capitalized on its revival through packaging and branding to the point of outpacing CDs... it's a pure shock that this step by Apple is really the only thing being done.

Just like vinyl, I don't think the solution is digital!

Agree, but, if we have to acknowledge it while it is still the norm, how will the norm ever change states? The ongoing acknowledgement and practice of it will continue it perpetually.

How to break the cycle? Comments alone will not work. Put yourself in the chair of a sociopathic corp executive. From that seat, they're still getting maximum profits, still paying the employees the minimum, the suckers\\\customers still pay the outrageous tips so the employees aren't rebelling or quitting, and the comments are mere noise (if they are ever even read at that level).

As much as it sucks for the workers short term, it seems that the only way to effect change is to universally reject the bogus tipping 'culture' superimposed on us by the corporate overlords, which sucks for the workers. It has to suck so bad for the workers that they universally quit. Only then will the executives see any problem and the need to adjust their policies on pay, pricing, and tipping.

I don't like to make things suck for workers either, so if you see another way, please let us know!

No this is not true and it's actually a common misconception. It is not true that doing something for a long time makes you better at it or more knowledgeable about it. There is an excellent meta-analysis [1] that looks at domains such as music, games (such as chess), sports and other domains that shows that people must put in deliberate practice and make an explicit effort to improve, otherwise they simply stagnate and get into a bit of a comfort zone with little to no improvement.

When it comes to programming I often say that there is a difference between someone who has ten years of actual programming experience, and someone who has two years of experience that they just repeated five times.

I can state from experience that there are plenty of C++ developers who have been using it for decades who don't know basic things about it, and use it like it was still 1995.

I'm interested in the inventing of zero, so I searched it:

> The first evidence we have of zero is from the Sumerian culture in Mesopotamia, some 5,000 years ago.

> The symbol changed over time as positional notation (for which zero was crucial), made its way to the Babylonian empire and from there to India, via the Greeks.

> Arab merchants brought the zero they found in India to the West.

https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/what-is-the-origi...

So the real inventor is Sumerian. Greek spread that to India, and later Arabs take that back to Europe from India.

Although Indian isn't it's inventor, they did their job spreading it.

I guess that includes a lot of young gang members in troubled areas.
It is not nearly as bad. Oracle assassinated OpenSolaris on first sight while IBM literally pays people to develop Fedora.
On the one hand: Apple has released (at least) two new "major" consumer "apps" over the past year (Freeform and this). This gives me positive echos of "old Apple"; a company that took the software as seriously as the hardware, that apps like Aperture and Logic were critical to the Mac becoming what it is, and that they should have a hand in creating not just the platform and technologies, but the actual experiences that drive productivity (and now entertainment) for the people who join their platforms. This can solve a real problem for a lot of customers; I am not one of them, so I'm unqualified to say if it actually does solve those problems, but I'm really happy that it exists.

On the other hand; release is step 1, and given this is based on an acquisition I think its totally fair to be skeptical. I shared this with my dad this morning, who is an old classical music nerd and pianist for the symphony orchestra in town. His first reaction: Does it have a Mac app? (It doesn't). And see, that gap is actually really significant when you think about it, because people like him, in that niche; they are appreciators, for better or worse, of audio quality. Hi-Res lossless, awesome, that's table stakes. He has a Mac Mini wired up to a Schiit Yggdrassil and some amp that weighs 50 pounds and a set of speakers that he drove 300 miles away to "get a deal" on (he paid $18,000 for them. that was a "deal". my mother was not happy about it). Using an iPhone is a complete non-starter. He uses Qobuz primarily, alongside an obscene collection of SA-CDs, and despite this app being 90% there toward being something awesome he could use; he won't.

So I think that's what I mean by Step 1; developing "niche" software like Freeform or Apple Music Classical isn't an obvious step for Apple. They won't get insane metrics for these apps. They won't drive measurable revenue. But I really deeply believe that this kind of niche investment is what separates companies like Microsoft and Apple from companies like Google; as they say about Google, if its not a billion dollar business it won't even get a team. Microsoft and Apple do understand the insane power of network effects, and the power that solving one niche really freakin well can have on bringing customers into the fold of their platforms, and keeping them there. Microsoft for M365 and Apple for their consumer software.

I think that's the era we're entering in software; we've solved a ton of the problems that have "100M users" as their TAM. As an example: note taking. Its solved. It can be iteratively improved, but everyone has their favorite app, we switch every once in a while, and its best for me that that improvement happens within the context of a platform I've already adopted. Large software companies should really be open to moving down the TAM ladder; what problems do 10M people have? 1M? Freeform is one stab at that: diagramming and flowcharts. But we also can't accept these apps having 10x fewer features or 10x less quality just because they have a 10x smaller TAM; software is multiplicative, and potentially exponential now that we have generative AI capable of helping out.

Show HN: Python Monitoring for AI: LLMs, OpenAI, Inference, GPUs
Hi HN. I'm excited to share our AI-focused application monitoring and analytics for Python!

We've built it for apps that use LLMs and other ML models. The lightweight Python agent autoinstruments OpenAI, LangChain, Banana, and other APIs and frameworks. Basically by adding one line of code you'll be able to monitor and analyze latency, errors, compute and costs. Profiling using CProfile, PyTorch Kineto or Yappi can be enabled if code-level statistics are necessary.

Here is a short demo screencast for a LangChain/OpenAI app: https://www.loom.com/share/17ba8aff32b74d74b7ba7f5357ed9250

In terms of data privacy, we only send metadata and statistics to https://graphsignal.com. So no raw data, such as prompts or images leave your app.

We'd love to hear your feedback or ideas!

There isn't additional spare capacity in the wires that were designed only to power the light. While they almost certainly are rated for a bit more juice to deal with intermittent power surges and an appropriate factor of safety for design use, you still need that buffer for any application that draws 500W, so you can't persistently run above that level.

And if you're charging when you park at home and at work, unless you find someone who works at your home and sleeps where you work, that's going to be around 2 streetlights per car, and even that's assuming 100% street parking with optimally arranged streetlights. For context, there are currently about 6 cars per streetlight in Europe, and their current total power consumption of 35 TWh/yr would be able to provide 20 miles of range per day to just 16% of that number of cars. Of course streetlights aren't normally running 24/7, but even if you triple the power usage (which the streetposts might not even be able to handle) you're still at less than half of what you'd need at a minimum. There's really no way around building substantially more charging infrastructure.

IBM's big endorsement in early 2000 made a big difference as well.

But whether or not you you accept the premise that an open source "unix" was inevitable, a lot of companies in the late 90s were at least hedging on a world where Windows basically conquered all. (Sun being the notable exception among the systems companies.)
There was no reason to think you'd be effectively cut off from half your apps if you enabled automatic upgrades. Or that many of the apps you could still use would be forcibly "upgraded" to subscription models, as iTeleport tried to pull.
And that reasoning is that it's a backdoor subsidy to the banks, and an actual interest rate, which is kind of my original point.
We aren't going to go to war vs the owners of Facebook any time soon. But maybe for the owners of TikTok.

I don't want to be a racist asshole like some others online. But there is a geopolitical reality coming towards us and we need to start preparing for it. Nothing against the Chinese people or their culture or whatever, but their leaders have some goals that conflict with the USAs goals, and it could turn hot over the next 10 years.

If you are at all familiar with censorship you would not treat this subject so lightly. Whether it is Soviet "socialist realism" [1] or Nazi "entartete kunst" (degenerate art) [2], these movements never fail to turn into some form of witch hunt.
