The Ryzen 5650 is certainly not faster than the base MacBook Air M2. The 5650 does 1848/7191 in Geekbench, M2 2560/9566. Heck, even the 2.5 years old M1 is faster at 2322/8243.

I fell for the Ryzen laptop hype and bought one around the time of the M1 that was supposed to be about as fast as the M1. In practice it started throttling pretty fast and the performance was way worse than the M1. Also, the battery life was ~3 hours under normal workloads on Linux (with most power optimizations done) and ~6-7 hours on Windows.

The price definitely can't be beat though. Even though a laptop with a 5650, 32GB RAM and 1TB SSD for $400 sounds really unbelievable? Those specs usually go for at least $1200. Do you have a link?

> I believe it is my right to adjust my browsing experience by affecting how websites are rendered in my browser to a degree I find reasonable, as well as from my side what data tracking I allow, which is already a huge compromise for me (I would rather not allow js by default in most websites).

Agree completely. I know people who are fine with watching ads to support the content creators and I agree. The creators should be compensated but Google are far too agressive with their ads.

Being able to manipulate my own machine and what I want to view is entirely up to me. This can't be infringed.

There is always the option today to block from the client side, but I can see this changing if there's enough money involved.
Isn't it a thing of honor in the Islamic world to be Hafez (?), someone who has memorized the Quran?

Of course I have no way to check whether it's done correctly, but from what I hear a lot of people have done this.

Show HN: A Collection of AI Professional Prompts
These prompts can be easily copy/pasted to GPT/Claude+ and they will guide you through a consultation session with no prompt engineering knowledge required.
A brief conversation I had with somebody who worked there said it was like Bell labs in the glory days of K&R -you couldn't bottle it: it had a dynamic all of its own.

The no door policy and beanbag discussion spaces worked because people wanted them to work. In other situations it might well not have worked.
This is why, on almost every website I visit where I know I'll be opening multiple links (which would normally require hitting the back button to view them all), I just open every link in a new tab and then close the tab when finished.

I suspect many people use HN (and similar) this way.

It's always a fun time when I occasionally use the browser/website "as intended" and hit the back button, but the scroll position has been completely lost so it takes a bit to find the exact place I was looking originally.
I don’t know if I’d be able to say I’m 10x as productive in Svelte as React (I havent used Vue enough to compare), but I’d certainly say there’s at least a 2x benefit, which is enough for me. Projects are easier to organise and thus plan, components are easier to build in an encapsulated way, routing works OOTB 99% of the time, and I don’t have to remember whether I’m allowed to use an effect or think about whether a hook is going to grind my page to a halt.

I don't use a blocker because the arms race leads to bad outcomes. I'm doing my part to postpone that as much as possible.
> If there would forever be only one encryption algorithm in use we we wouldn't need most of the stuff.

Coincidentally, this is why a protocol like WireGuard is much simpler than OpenVPN. It's a clean-sheet design, so its developers had the luxury to design it with hardcoded modern crypto primitives without any revision or extension. Protocol negotiation is skipped entirely since it's often error-prone and suspect to attacks...

I switch between paying for streaming services on a regular basis, but YouTube Premium is the one that I stick with all the time. Lots of high quality content.
You forgot heating up water, electricity and your time spent on it.
And use the extra volume to include a thicker battery
You reward volume - you get volume
That reminds me of this hilarious interview of a British economist:
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/business-65308769

> Somehow in the UK, someone needs to accept that they're worse off and stop trying to maintain their real spending power [...]

You're both totally right that giving people enough money to live might increase the inflation. But that's not an option people are (rightly so) going to be happy with. "Just be miserable" is not a plan.
Electricity prices started trending upwards the summer before the war started, so when the pipeline output got reduced due to "technical issues".
I thought there was a VC funding crisis? How can they afford to hire so much?
I use YouTube with an ad blocker and I am not a Premium subscriber anymore and won't pay out of principle after the dislike button removal, which has made using YouTube for tutorials and how-to videos useless for me. Instead, I support creators whose content I enjoy off-YouTube.

I am not worried about Google going forth with this. I see others asking what happens when users won't pay for a subscription and at the same time won't view ads? I believe the answer is pretty clear.

YouTube will either decide to suck up that they won't see ad revenue from a portion of the audience (ad blockers are and will always be a niche thing, there is no reality in which YouTube buckles because too many people block ads, especially since YouTube is predominantly viewed on devices where ad blocking is not as easy as in the desktop browser) or they will close up shop.

The fact is that YouTube currently occupies a spot in the online sphere which will always be occupied by someone: being the top service for hosting videos for free and showing them to audiences for free. There is a line of businesses which would jump on the opportunity of filling YouTube's "woeful" position of being the top dog in online video.

YouTube's collapse would be devastating considering the amount of culture and history stored on there. But new video content will always find a home and reach online. And Google knows this which is why they will IMO never give up on YouTube even if it were operating with loss again. Storage is only getting cheaper and their moat with YouTube is the user-generated content. Gate it too heavily and creators will find a place where they can post content more freely and users will fine a place where they can view content more freely.

I don't expect this to be anything other than YouTube pulling a Netflix with their password sharing crackdown complete with the back-paddling that ensued once they realized how replaceable they really are to a sizeable portion of their viewers loosing which would be more expensive than keeping it.
Especially on my phone I have actively disabeled all spelling control, and successively suggestive typing.

writing a sentence while making it, I feel too much the words are being forced on me.

Where as it can be a great tool, I like to exercise my mind, the same reason I calculated all Matrix determinants with pen and paper when I started my engineering degree.

Some people may go to the gym and work out, but I am like to just squeese in exercise within my bicyle commute.

Sometimes there may be greater projects requiring more heavy tech, but for housekeeping I honestly dont mind harvesting the synergies of planning and doing things by myself.
I think it comes down to user experience.

Is your website more pleasant to use than ChatGPT/Bard/Bing Chat? Some actually are. Websites can load fast, be responsive, beautiful and well thought out. Those websites are a treat to visit.

However, if you need to first dismiss a GDPR waiver, a request to know your location, a request to show notifications, a chatbot that is available right now for a free sales consultation, and a request to subscribe to a newsletter; and once you do that, the page jumps around for 30 seconds as the ad auctions finish and obtrusive video ads flood in, and when you try to exit the page your back-button is hijacked; then the answer is probably "no".
> That needs to be factored into your calculation, no?

That isn't born out of passion.
It's also interesting that, if you become a symbolic leader, it doesn't matter if you're right or wrong: you're inspiring others to continue your work either way. What matters is that he had an idea/opinion, and shared it.

I don’t wanna dox myself but I work for a public company who’s stock didn’t crash and who hasn’t laid anyone off and we pay similar to MS (or more if you ignore all the random perks MS gives)
HTML is the data format of Web pages. That's what the client, the browser, is built to render.
TBH, that's not amazing. It opens a div with pretty much hard-coded icons and text. Browsers are really good at that. It's rather a bit of a shame that Windows 11 is so sluggish. But that's what you get when you put layer upon layer upon layer upon layer of UI, I guess.
Good luck motivating people with anything else.
This made me giggle because I've heard stuff like this in serious situations.
As someone with ADHD, if you think that's bad, you should see what they're probably like off the stimulants. They likely wouldn't have a job in the first place and would probably be MIA somewhere under a pile of laundry beneath an avalanche of unpaid bills and birthday presents they forgot to give people.
There you go. Not knowing you can find paper that prove A and papers that prove B, it's just a matter of finding the papers that prove what you most believe in, and QED.

Especially when you use a quote which conveniently puts red and processed meat in the same basket to reach their conclusion.

I'll let you have this one, because as I said, it is quixotic trying to restore some kind of objectivity or educated discussion on dietary matters.

Even under the anthropological point of view, red meat which has sustained humanity for hundred of thousands of years, to "cause cancer" smells like biased nonsense from a mile away. I guess during the last ice age, when herbivores roamed the earth freely and in abundant numbers, the opportunist scavenger Homo Sapiens was eating chicken breast and leafy vegetables.
> the biological defenses that plants have evolved to defend themselves and their seeds from undesirable predators

Hunting and gathering meat doesnt traditionally involve going out into a field and picking up a strip of meat wrapped up in plastic.
The Metaverse — mostly a solution in search of a problem. Like many (if not all) of the hypes of the last decade, being hugely expensive, was just a way to "invest" all the cheap money pumped into the world economy.

According to Google, it will only cite sources if it literally copy-paste answers. So sometimes it says, but is rarely because of course it won't just copy-paste everything.

the same kind of person who thinks that this company didn't consult their attorneys but is just winging it, so they decide to go on HN and just wing it, and they find good company here.
To be fair I have that constantly on Linux. Default applications like ark trying to query every connected drive on every use and just hanging there until they get a response even when all you want to do is open a zip file on a local ssd.

I don't have time to read the article in full right now but this gorgeous description will have me returning to it and Barry Webb's images later today:

A bunch of Mr. Blobby’s babies. Golden goblets overflowing with effervescent honeycomb. Opalescent spherules in crinkled sweet wrappers. Amaretti flecked with flakes of soap. Honestly, go and check it out if you don’t believe me.
I would happily pay for youtube premium if:

- They removed the useless "shorts"

- They removed the "mix" things that keep coming back like a bad smell

- They let me remove youtube music

- Their suggestions were less terrible. Like seriously they run the biggest data centers in the world, have some of the best ML researchers and know what I actually watch. How do they manage to be so consistently bad at this?

- Their search was less terrible. They figured out search of the whole internet 20 years ago, how is search in YT worse than searching YT from duckduckgo?
I have the same feelings as you: I stick to Python for tasks that aren't worthy of a long compilation because the execution time would be small, but I always use Julia for computation-intensive tasks.

However, because of this, when somebody asks me if I would recommend Julia to them, instead of answering “no” I just say “it depends”
I had never heard of her, but decided to take a look at her content to try to tease together some part of her story. I sensed from the coverage that something was being elided here, and I was right.

It's clear she struggled with depression and some sort of compulsion to live in public in a painful, raw way, pretty much all her adult life. Like many people in her circumstances, she had a love-hate relationship with an audience that often abused her, but was also the source of her income. It's also clear that all of this took a turn for the worse recently. Less than a year ago she posted this rambling, semi-coherent rant that has since been scrubbed from her blog:

https://web.archive.org/web/20220811035913/https://dooce.com...

In it, she speaks about her history of mental illness, body dysphoria and attempted suicide. She also says some things about gender dysphoria: she objects to the fact that affirmation is the only treatment offered, is scornful of neo-pronouns, hints that she feels her non-binary children have been swept up in a social contagion, and praises the bravery of de-transitioners. Needless to say, people did not take this kindly, as the comments on her Instagram around this time shoes:

https://www.instagram.com/p/ChGWRv-JN2m/

She was subjected to an enormous torrent of self-righteous abuse by her fanbase in the wake of this. Podcasts were made, Reddit threads savaged her, Twitter did its sociopathic thing, and it dragged on for weeks and weeks.

I'm not saying her fanbase bullied her to death. But I am saying that the way she was treated surely didn't help.

This part too:

>Unfortunately, these patchers also cause Windows customer satisfaction numbers to plunge every time an update goes out,

I've refused/blocked updates for as long as I remember since long before Explorer patchers were a thing, because updates break my shit and waste my fucking time.

I've had more of my time and nerves wasted by updates breaking my shit than "all the bad guys trying to take advantage of unpatched systems". Saying my system is "insecure" is concentrated snake oil.

Seriously, fuck updates with a rusty spork.

I only run Windows Updates once a year or two when I've set aside a few days to work out all the inevitable borkages, and I damn well like it that way. My computer is a tool and an appliance, not a mentally ill schizophrenic who changes their personality every hour.
It's probably a licensing thing due to the large amount of music on Youtube.
> the Y is not bold enough to look much different than a plain orange square

Seconded, it feels like the spacing between the Y and the borders is a bit too large. I would make the Y a bit thicker.

Other than that, it looks good. Voting arrows particularly so. I have memories of browsing HN on the TV at >200% zoom, the logo was very blurry in that situation.
Not nearly enough ads, spyware, or telemetry, plus the feature set remained stable for the entire time I was playing with it. Totally unrealistic.
In this specific case the broker had a good counterargument: If the seller googled "SuperTokens" they'd find SuperTokens.io and realize the buyer had VC funding and an investment in the brand. The broker convincingly argued it wasn't worth quibbling over a few thousand dollars if it risked the seller realizing they could ask for tens of thousands more and have a decent chance of getting it.
I thought this is a workaround showing off how they use Go lang and PHP together, fell for it!
The point was that with Plato (but also ~2,000 years before his time, with the Sumerians, who probably invented writing) we were already discovering that we don't have to bring the exterior into an inside which we call "self", memory, we can actually leverage stigmergically [1] the environment to enhance and extend the "self", i.e. by writing, leaving a mark; the Greek word grapho γράφω [2] meaning literally to carve.

Not sure if LLMs will enhance our current "self" by themselves, but once we get a chip or two inside our brains, once we start controlling the cells to regenerate or grow specific limbs [3], we will surely consider our present "selves" as tiny as we consider the "self" of one of our cousins, the chimpanzee, in a zoo today. The journey and expansion of the "self" is merely starting.

Indeed. The idealized market is supposed to be a feedback-based system. Publicly wining about what a company is doing is a form of consumer feedback just as much as "voting with your wallet" is, and arguably more effective.

For companies, it's Marketing 101 that if you can't or don't want to sell what people want, you can always brainwash or beat[0] people into "wanting" the thing you want to sell. But we do not have to take such treatment silently, or without a fight. By resisting, we raise the costs of anti-consumer moves ever so slightly. Maybe, sometimes, just enough to make the company - or the next one to follow - rethink if the change is really worth doing after all.

[0] - Metaphorically, of course. But when a company cancels the very product people like the most, in order to force them to use an inferior product, and knowing full well none of the competitors will come up with a replacement (because they're all in lock step, what isn't profitable for one won't be for another, etc.) - being on a receiving end of that does feel like being beaten into submission.
