I think it’s lots of reasons.

I recently switched to iPhone because I couldn’t find an android I liked.

Galaxy has uninstallable Facebook apps (dealbreaker), Pixel camera was underwhelming.. and couldn’t find anything else I liked.
Well the vast majority of casual HN readers aren't actual bonafide geniuses nor are they super hard working. So of course they don't want to consider it and so these posts keep getting voted up.
On second read, I think what the Kagi doc means is that they don't provide first-party affiliate links (i.e. if you click on an Amazon.com search result it's not using their affiliate). They will still show you search results that have affiliate links embedded (but presumably don't affect or negatively affect ranking).
I'm not sure I agree. For pretty much any supplement you want, you can find a good vendor that declares exactly what it is and provides third-party testing to confirm.

If we get specific to the sort of combos like what are sold on Infowars, then yes that's a problem, especially that they can hide behind "proprietary formula" without having to disclose exactly what it is. But the supplement market is way bigger than just that
Many beers are filtered to remove the yeast since it's not really desirable once fermentation has completed. BUT - and a big "but" - there are styles like hefeweizen and other unfiltered beers that deliberately leave the yeast in for flavour.
> Sure you could ban it in the US and Europe, but you can't in China, et al.

The same can be said for enforcing intellectual property rights, and we do enforce IP in western countries despite other countries not respecting those rights. We could end up where models can only be legally trained with public domain IP, enforced by regulation, royalties, private causes of action, etc.

You may like things the way they are, but it's false that "nothing" can be done to change it.
Once you’ve got Node, docker, Postgres, redis, an IDE, etc running, the system is out of memory and already chugging before your actual app even opens.
yeah, I remember reading an article once where someone claimed ordering a pizza off the internet was stupid and people would still just keep ordering by phone.
This is great. I find the x86_64 paging to be very similar to RISC V which I was exposed to poring through xv6 code.

As far as I can tell, horseshoe theory is generally true. This is why many people toward the extremes try so hard to deny it.
>> the authors did not benefit from my secondary market transaction.

But they did. The presence of a secondary market for used books increased the value of some new books. People buy them knowing that they might one day recoup some costs by selling them. Would people pay more, or less, for a new car if they were told they could never sell or trade it away as a used car?
South Texas, so you also need to speak Spanish. If you paid equipment operators here $200K+/year, you'd have to hire security to control the crowd of people beating down your door to apply for a job.
Regarding your last sentence, "fully understanding everything of the complexity of the world would require the power of the world itself."
maybe that's not true? In particular, maybe reality is highly redundant and can be modelled using highly compressed representations.

It seems everybody is getting into this game. I believe people when they say this stuff helps them, but there’s many reasons it can be helping.

Fair enough - I had forgotten that quirk in the US situation, it was added to statute in a way that doesn't really define it, so you are back to case law.
I love the Apple ecosystem, however I always have a low level of dread that someday I will somehow offend them and be permanently blacklisted.

> Don't load a JavaScript framework for form validation if using `required` and `pattern` are enough. Don't write your own sorting algorithm unless it's faster than qsort(). Don't write your own data storage engine if SQLite covers your use case.

Most software is made by stitching together off-the-shelf components. I don't think people on the web need a warning about not writing too much custom code. The HN complaint about the web is regarding bloat from people who walk the mainstream road of web development. Loading a bloated framework to do whatever is an example of such mainstream development.
>I made these observations on a recent trip to China and it's clear to me what a post-search world looks like because China is already there.

Voting in an election isn't generally necessary for most people. It is rare to see a candidate show up who is incapable of doing the job.

What is necessary is to stay in regular communication with whoever you hired. If they never hear from you, they can't represent you, which questions why bother to hire an employee to represent you in the first place if you are not going to use their services?
Great, hold on, I'm calling Hollywood to tell that all they do is a hobby now.

> So shipping it off somewhere else, or at least not being a preferred destination for the problem, is a valid strategy.

Is a valid local strategy. Not a national one. The cities are just responding as best they can to the brokenness of the national (lack of) response.
I feel like the keyword is 'almost' and then you begin pulling on that thread:

How closely is this the case?
What blind spots exist?
How do you measure this?
What is the capacity for original idea generation does the human mind have and how does it inspire a unique spin to it?

This is one of those areas where 'thought experiments' are never going to pass muster against genuine experiments with metrics, trial, and robist scientific research.

But with the stakes as they are, I dont have faith there exists a good faith dialogue in this arena.
Stating accurately what's in it is not the same as it doing something beneficial when ingested.
> Its not like looking and getting inspiration, its looking and being able to almost perfectly duplicate the style.

You cannot copyright a style. A person is perfectly within their right to copy your art style when they produce their own work. So, I think "duplicate the style of" and "taking inspiration from" are the same thing in this context.
This is wild to me. I've applied to 4 jobs in my life and been hired for 3 of those. I can't imagine having to write hundreds of individual cover letters. Is this one of those US vs EU differences?
Do humans perceive time?
Yeah I would also point out... If copyright terms were shorter, perhaps people would be less tempted to hoover up modern artists' and writers' works.
But unethical =/= illegal, unfortunately.

That is very much fortunate.
I dont necessarily disagree, but by what logic or argument do you make that case?

Does that mean that models that can not produce copies of X length ARE fair use?
Nope.

I worked in a Pizza Hut delivery place when I was in college. I just took my son back for a campus visit and yeah, 30 years later, its still there - same location and save a few minor changes, the building still has the exact layout. A testament to whoever laid out the original floor plan.

Being born into the first two groups gives you a lot more opportunity to learn the social skills that might also land you in that third group. Especially in societies that have some kind of class system (even if that system is 'informal').
That is good, too much mouse movement typically indicates that the developer is not typing.
Similar to Chesterton's fence, if you don't understand why the Goop brand has become incredibly popular for a particular demographic, maybe you aren't qualified to critique it.

In short: It is supposed to sound exactly as ridiculous as you think it sounds. The Goop line most famously includes a candle that is marketed as smelling like the creator's vagina. It is supposed to generate outrage among people of your demographic. Like the Kardashians, Gwyneth Paltrow knows exactly what she's doing, which is making money.
Worth reading just to learn of the existence of "activated cashews"

Our enzyme-rich, activated, and dehydrated cashews are a mineral-dense protein. Pure, alkaline water awakens the nuts' dormant properties, increasing digestibility and micronutrient, vitamin, and enzyme count. These raw, activated, bio-available nuts are a low-glycemic source of omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids.

As well as a product for sale at infowars that makes fun of Alex Jones "making us fat, sick, and stupid" (an Animal House gloss).

That isn't true. The really bad cases will trash/burn down their housing in a few months of obtaining it without lots of live in resources to make that not happen (or renovate/rebuild after it does happen). If it were just housing, we could solve this problem more easily, but we have decided as a society to combine it with our drug abuse problem and have decided for some odd reason to treat the harder cases first and wait for the easier cases (just need housing) become hard cases (now addicted to drugs) before doing anything about it.

Fork and change the readme to reflect that this version is hardened for big business.
This is such a bad and wrong Americentric take. Folk cures and medicine absolutely still exist in other countries, even ones with better QOL than us (see Japan). And pseudoscience like homeopathy is actively thriving in Europe.

The only difference is the FDA doesn't have the prerogative to regulate supplement manufacturers whereas in places like the EU counterparts (generally) regulate any product that tries to make medical claims.
Imagine someone came up with a way to print houses for nearly-free. Anyone needs shelter? Bam, instant house.

Landlords would lose income left and right.

The relevant question is: would society stop the building of these free houses to protect the interest of the landlords?

(Now, take that analogy and throw it in the trash. ;) Housing is essential; art is fundamentally a luxury good. If we want to, we can have a society that protects profit-making on luxury goods and profit-making on necessities differently. "Someone is losing income, therefore this change is bad" is too simple a rule to build a healthy society upon, but a reasonable person can conclude "Artists are losing their livelihoods, therefore this change is bad").

People vary wildly in our fears and our desires, don't we? The life you describe sounds like my nightmare. I don't value comfort so much, but purpose and autonomy are essential.

Perhaps this is why I like cats, though I've never wanted to own one (they keep showing up in my life anyway, via housemates and partners): they seem like independent beings, tolerant of humans for the services they provide, but pursuing their own interests; wild creatures, only pretending to be domesticated.

I've yet to meet the cat who loves indoor life so much they won't bolt for the door if it's left open.
I saw a demo like 15 or 20 years ago of a Sun thin client that used smart cards. You put your card in to any terminal, and nearly instantly your desktop session was live. Remove the card and it instantly disappears and locks.

That type of thing seems ideally suited to healthcare use, and we have such better devices now than whatever cards were used way back then. Amazing it's still Windows PCs deployed and secured with passwords.

(ah, but the Emperor is wearing the most magnificent garment!), I can imagine the CCP funding TCM practicioners all over the world (like the Thai government with Thai restaurants)...

The A750 is not that poor of a GPU either. If that's considered low-end, then gaming on a Steam Deck, or a budget gaming computer is impossible.
I think you're over thinking this.

I mean to say if a recruiter asks me about a gap in my resume, I would see this as a red flag. The length of the gap is almost arbitrary. If I sat at home for 2 years straight playing Quake3, but have provable skills (e.g. technical assessment) for the job, the employer should not care what I do on my time. It is MY time.
>you could literally bankrupt these companies in less than a fortnight with single payer healthcare.

You'd certainly rob them of people who have legitimate and treatable complaints. But that does nothing to eliminate the people who think they're smarter than their doctors or don't trust them which ranges from Steve Jobs to ivermectin users. There are always those who view themselves outside the system, don't trust it, or simply don't want to accept their diagnosis and/or treatment.

Anecdotally I have a sister who was biopsied for cancer twenty+ years ago, and the result was negative. She's been telling people she has (not had) cancer ever since. With her it could just be a play for sympathy, but I wouldn't be surprised to see her buying anything that purported to "cure cancer", regardless of what any doctor tells her.
> But, Oxfam said, for the world’s poorest people — who are more likely to be women and marginalized groups in every society — “daily life has become more brutal” since 2019. It pointed to the effects of the coronavirus pandemic, as well as “escalating conflict, the acceleration of the climate crisis and surging costs of living.”

Bam. That's what lockdowns and inflation does. Do we feel that we made the right choices?

> Oxfam urged governments worldwide to adopt caps on CEO salaries, along with permanent taxes on wealth and excess profits.

That will cause innovation in the wealth transfer/concealment industry. I doubt that's a good idea.
Theoretically it's a good solution, but practically it's an enormous task to migrate all existing digital infrastructure into a new hardware security paradigm.
This is the kind of “I’m 14 and this is deep” thing that gets passed all over Reddit or twitter, because it sounds good and aligns with political dogma. But doesn’t make sense if you actually think about it, at all.
It's more about the cult of personality of Alex Jones or Gwyneth Paltrow. They aren't buying products to be healthy, they are buying products to be more like/to support their favorite celebrities. While thinking about "blame", don't ignore that some people are working pretty hard to find & target these products to whales.
I went to look, and I was wrong on both extremes. I've allocated 2TB. It actually took me two years to get make ~$125, when I bought disks at ~$60/TB.

For the past 6 months, I've received an average of 5.8 STORJ per month, which on today's rate amount to $4/month, but if I look at the price at the time I received them it would be more like $2.2/month.

I don't know the exact wattage, but given that is a oldish celeron and that I'm based in Germany, I'm guessing that running that server + disks takes ~25W, which means ~18kWh per month and given how energy prices have gone up last year (close to 0.30€ per kWh), I am actually losing money by keeping this server on.
Ok but that is irrelevant to the discussion which was about whether profiling is absolutely necessary 100% of the time.
I suspect the poster you’re responding to would say you are agreeing with them, not disagreeing.

I took that post to be a criticism of people who seek to go into management without the expertise you will have gathered as an IC, or without the industry or domain knowledge you will have as you go transfer to the management track.

They weren’t criticising management, but rather the “MBAs who rock up” without the necessary expertise to do a good job (and quite often not even much experience of actually managing).
Very much not interested in hearing about the Alex Jones candle options.
Differences in male and female behavior being attributed to biological differences is just as foolish as considering the world flat

I think you need to look in the mirror for flat-earth-esque attributes there. (Or maybe young earth is a better analogy?) Are you saying all biology citing male-female differences in animals is also false? Or are you saying that human are somehow exempt because of our intelligence?

Smells like ideological wishing!

(Apologies for copying your style of argument, I couldn't help myself.)

You're missing a key point of the analogy here. Left as a self-awareness exercise to the student.
In that example it's not the scale that makes it right or wrong, the scale of people impacted just affects the degree of wrongs that have been committed.

> Acquiring a warrant to tail a suspect, tapping a single individual’s phone line, etc all feels like very normal run-of-the-mill police work that no one has a problem with.

If acquiring a warrant is the basic action being scaled, I'd be okay with that ethically if it was done under, what I define as, reasonable pretenses. Regardless of how it scales, I still think it would be the right thing to do assuming the pretenses for the first action could be applied to everyone wiretapped. Now if I thought the base action was morally wrong (someone was tailed or wiretapped without proper pretenses), I'd think it's wrong regardless of the scale. The number of people it affected might impact how wrong I saw it, but not whether it was right or wrong to.

For a fairly similar experience for English speakers, see the sound that is written in Chinese pinyin as "sh" vs "x". They're two distinct sounds but will likely both register as "sh" to English speakers. Likewise "ch" and "q".
Show HN: Browser's internal local routes containing juicy stuff
There are internal local routes inside browsers which are used for debugging purposing by developers but one can find a use case for him selves. Play around with it to find something interesting.

Here are those internal routes/urls corresponding to the browser. Put it in url bar (omnibox/search bar) and hit enter.

chrome - chrome://chrome-urls/
firefox - about:about
edge - edge://edge-urls/

I'm pretty sure that most of the browsers have this you can just google like this "[your browser name] internal urls"

It's an interesting predicament. Assuming these stories between person and machine are indistinguishable and of same quality, then the difference here is the ability to scale. Without giving bias because of humanity reasons, why should we give entitlement to output derived from a human over something else of same quality?

I hate making analogies, but if we make humans plant rows of potatoes, should that command a higher price and seen more valuable than planting potatoes by tractor 20 rows wide?
It doesn’t matter second you get a job you’ll have to prompt.

Knowing any non-prompt skill just becomes a frustration, you know the machine can make the finished product in 5 seconds yet you have to spend the 20 hours it used to take when the output will just be judged against how many promptings could be done in those hours.

It’s like a musket against the A10 gatling gun

I’d never advise anyone to bother learning anything that’s promptable.

Just embrace it because honestly everything else is over.
While I don't have the Cat and Girl zines. I've spent years convincing companies to open up what source code they can, or working for open source companies.

This still is pretending that humans and AI models are equivalent actors and should have the same rights

Emphatically no they shouldn't. The capabilities are vastly different. Fair use should not apply to AI.
There are also plenty more ways for it get compromised which don't involve the owner handing over anything - say simply accepting a merge which adds a cool feature while still compromising the other users of the project. Github still gets the same marginal image impact risk because ultimately the security of billions of dollars or X% of a country's GDP isn't protected by requiring a hobby developer to 2FA their afternoon code changes. You can't make them interested in protecting your billions via secure account login. Instead it's done by the billion dollar companies or countries themselves because they are the only ones with resources large enough to protect that much asset in a useful way. All this ignoring the same impact can be had by the author simply having a mistake and not fixing it over holiday vacation, no malicious actors required in the first place.
