I’m not totally convinced that being ‘secretly a lisp’ is what was good about R. I think the easy vectorisation is good, and the consequences of the bizarre function argument evaluation are good. I don’t know of lisps that do the vectorisation stuff so naturally, and while I guess fexprs are a thing, I think they are possibly too general in the syntax they can accept – basically the simplicity of lisp syntax allows macros to have more tree-structured input in a way you wouldn’t want for a language with non-lisp syntax (where the head lives outside the list), and I think the flexibility makes the syntax more confusingly non-uniform.
Maybe people have had enough of worrying about copyright infringement, licenses, attribution etc. and just want a quick sketch to get the idea across. Art is a tool for expressing ideas after all.

Then you should be happy to know that the large majority of AI art models that matter are open source, or fine tuned open source models.

That's most of the space.

You support basically all AI art, which is much different than what most artists are complaining about.

And even if a few of those big companies go away, those models are still out there and available for users to generate from.

Show HN: Firebolt – The Productive React Framework
Hey HN,

I'm constantly building new things on the web with React and I really just wanted a framework that would get out of the way and let me focus on shipping faster.

With all the new features coming to React 19 I started to see the holy grail of frameworks emerge, so I ran with it!

The biggest goal of Firebolt is to remain minimal and fast while still providing everything needed to build blogs, docs, tools or full blown SaaS platforms.

What I'm most excited about is that you can access your database etc, from inside ANY component, making it possible to build entire platforms by just creating and composing components together! Nothing else!

I hope you find this as useful as I do. Any feedback would be much appreciated!

For me Reacts problems are a confusing API (useEffect is too easy to cause invisible infinite render loops, contexts tend to cause massive rerender chains) and slow hydration performance, these are both hard issues that the article doesn’t really touch on.

> I saw this movie as a kid and it haunted me.

Me too. I still to this day have an original theater poster from it hanging in my office, next to my Collossus The Forbin Project one.

I do remember as a kid being very confused when the forest ships from the movie showed up in the fleet of ships following the Battlestar Galactica.
Exactly my point.

I linked to the reference docs, you linked to the usage docs. They're completely divorced from each other. There's not even a link from reference to usage docs.

For the reference docs to be useful you already have to know what the thing is, what it does, why you'd need it.

You can be on the component page where `viewProviders` is documented and get nothing from it if you're coming in fresh.

Why would ever design docs like that?

Angular is the only framework I've ever struggled to learn. It's a complicated framework but that's not the problem. The docs are the problem.

Debian, RedHat and Firefox do have telemetry. Not a lot, but enough to prove it is possible to do it in a way that doesn't piss most people off.

Naturally the way they collect it is open source, it's largely de-identified, and because it open source you verify it's de-identified enough for you. And if it isn't you can turn it off.

So it's possible to do well, where "well" means gets you the data you without pissing off the users. Most proprietary don't bother to do it well for whatever reason.

But they should be careful: it a big factor in diving things like Home Assistant, Linux Desktop and now this, apparently.

Weed does miracles for people truly suffering from insomnia. (At least for me)

The lawsuit:

https://www.nationalparkstraveler.org/sites/default/files/at...

It refers to 31 U.S. Code § 5103:

> United States coins and currency (including Federal reserve notes and circulating notes of Federal reserve banks and national banks) are legal tender for all debts, public charges, taxes, and dues. Foreign gold or silver coins are not legal tender for debts.

https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/31/5103

They argue that the fees at the parks are public charges, not debts. I can't find anything in the US code that provides a definition for "public charge." It may be there and I just haven't found it. It seems likely that there are prior judicial cases that help shine a light on what is and is not a public charge. I hope these folks win.
We could just follow the lead from Central Asia where only older people are free to do whatever in terms of drugs but it's very much frowned upon if younger productive people do so. 'Course that is changing with western influence and people just getting addicted with very addictive substances.

Despite any PR answer they probably provided to cover themselves, this is precisely the reason they altered the readability of data like e.g. the number of downvotes of a post.

They want to hide certain correlations around controversial posts from long held accounts who otherwise have a good post and comment karma. If one had access to timestamps too then one could essentially see some of the astroturfing and intentionally directed bot spam clearly. Too much data would allow one to see such corruption in very clear ways. And even analyze the rhetorical anti-communication hostility tactics.

Simultaneously this gives them an excuse to ban all accounts productive in communication (via some slight breaking of some rule) with the explanation that they are too swamped to make discerning decisions.

Thanks for the information. It seems to contain only versions 8 and 9, so I guess what I said was valid only for the previous ones.

The repository looks promising, however the build.sh trying to reach to the internet during the build is disappointing. I would expect that to not help with having reproducible results. I need to look into how distributions approach this.

Agree about the moderation. The downside of the edibles is that after a month or two, I start needing more. When this happens I abstain and go back to my prescribed medicine for 2-3 weeks, and then continue back with the dosage that I allow myself. It's a bit of a cycle to watch over and maintain, but at least for me, the miracle of decent sleep far outweighs the cons.
I would say yes, and I think it's pretty common knowledge. Personally, my wife didn't have plaque buildup or dental problems for over 10yrs, so she never went to the dentist. After she moved to the US and started eating sugar she had to regularly visit the dentist.

Those choices also affect me, though. Any shared albums, messages or other data I transmit with these users has a higher risk of being leaked.

There's some security in knowing almost all phones are not jailbroken and thanks to regular os upgrades, have a pretty solid security floor.

One way to handle this would be to decorate the comms ID, email / phone name whatever to show they aren't running a standard iOS. But I would want to know as easily as I do that messages I exchange with someone are going to an android device.

I assume it's legal where you live? Because where I live, you get dragged through the courts and get a criminal record for even small amounts. Also since it's illegal, you have to have contacts in the criminal underworld, and fund criminal enterprises. Not to mention you don't know the quality of what you're getting. It could be laced with contaminants or simply low quality crap. If it's legal where you live, relish that and see it as an enormous privilege.

"marijuana is currently in the same category as some of the hardest drugs, like heroin and LSD"

Drugs should not be illegal period, but "some of the hardest drugs, like heroin and LSD" is a very funny (dark) sentence to me.
This hopefully is the precursor the DEA needs (plus a political push) to reschedule cannabis.
It's not really like those
I think this is a balanced approach --for just about any addictive drug with undesirable side effects from overconsumption.

Unfortunately, we tend to be in the extremes rather than the middle. We've either criminalized it, or have it wide open. Maybe after a decade or so of studies that are enabled by the legalization, we can get better guidance on usage and control.

Kratom is not similar or in the same category. It may not be classified as an opioid but it has similar addictive and side effects. It's an easy way to see if a head shop is honest or out to make quick money off the poorly thought out legalization measures.

The reason THC should be generally legal is because evidence shows it generally has minimal harm and other significant benefits. Kratom needs more research and is best used if all in a clinical setting.
It absolutely happens in real life because of basic human nature. It creates friction in relationships, and even the most minimal amount of unecessary friction can cause divides or make it harder to connect. You seem to underestimate how lazy people can be.

Imagine in 2010 you meet a potential romantic partner and they say, "Hey! Add me on Facebook!" And you reply, "Oh, I'm not on Facebook... can we just talk on the phone instead?" The person may go, "Oh, umm... sure, I guess." But then you never connect because you haven't made it as easy as possible; you've introduced a tiny amount of friction that a lot of people are just not willing to tolerate. If everyone else is on Facebook, why aren't you?

In real life, it creates so much friction that yes, there is pressure to buy an iPhone and change your entire software ecosystem just to fit in and remove this barrier to relationships. It's just text messaging; it's ancient technology at this point and no company should have a monopoly on it in any form. At a minimum they should let other operating systems download iMessage—show them ads, charge a fee, I don't know. But creating a hardware-enforced wall around basic telecommunication is wrong.
> But that actually creates a deferred tax obligation. Let’s say the tax rate you pay that at is 20% (very optimistic

There are also ways to get at this money with almost no taxes paid later IF you are not working--look for "Roth IRA conversion ladder".

You don't have to retire to California. Just pay minimal costs while you're there. Many places in US are beautiful, have great infrastructure and health care, and don't cost as much.

And investment growth is a LOT; don't ignore it. And after just a few years of not working, unless you have a bad start you can probably live off of much more than the initial safe withdrawal rate.
Domains that require network-isolated builds usually maintain internal mirrors with corresponding dependencies. It is unreasonable to expect from a project of this size to have all tooling it depends on to be available within repository files (moreover, it should build on multiple ISAs and OSes). I doubt you can build LLVM this way or, let's say, OpenJDK.

> As a Schedule 1 drug, marijuana is in the same category as some of the hardest drugs like heroin and LSD, which means it’s classified as being more dangerous than fentanyl and methamphetamine.

LSD is another drug where it is absurd it is on Schedule 1, and reporters likening it specifically to heroin as one of the hardest drugs is equally absurd. Psilocybin/Psilocin also fall in this category.

Obviously not to the extent that marijuana does, but we are seeing real medical research showing promising results around mushrooms, lsd, and similar substances in treating depression, ptsd, alcohol dependency, etc. as well as just general mental wellbeing. Plainly, these do not match the criteria of 'having no recognized medical use.'

I'm particularly excited by the idea of gen ai creating entirely new sounds, sort of becoming its own kind of instrument instead of generating or emulating samples previously created / trained on.

Somewhat analogous to how the MPC etc. enabled a generation of musicians to chop and pitch and arrange soul samples into new types of hip hop music. Not super familiar with the history but I don't believe they thought it would be used like that.

I'd imagine a gen AI musical instrument just needs a lot more "knobs" to tweak and eventually someone will find that a particular "hallucination" sound to be interesting. Exciting times!
The GGP said the words for welding and soldering are the same in Portugese. I was asking how people express the difference in Portugese.
Yup, planned obsolescence. Apple does it way more but it's still unacceptable. Might as well go with any other brand then since they're charging a premium anyway.
In the EU / app store ballyhoo, privacy / security has been used too often.

But in general, Apple has relentlessly set standards for data privacy that no other business seemed willing or able to provide. Far from perfect, (CN datacenters) but still seemingly far out ahead.

People don't normally pay for privacy or data security because they're not considered valuable until something bad happens.

So I can at least understand why the company might lean on this loss-leader to try and prop up its position in the face of unwanted regulation.
This happens to me with my prescription meds too. Always have to go back to the doctor and get a higher dose. Then the higher dose causes side effects, it sucks.
It's because taking these drugs give people "other ideas" about their life which don't sit well with maintaining the status quo in society we have today.

People might start to become radicalized, see themselves as more connected to things like "the natural world" and then start to demand spooky changes which aren't all about economics.

It's far too much of a risky experiment to run, so it's easier to put it all on some type of banned substances list.
Oh it is absolutely a privilege! Though it should not be, in the sense that it should be legal everywhere. Here in Oakland CA I can walk down the street and buy all the weed I want at the corner store. We have also decriminalized psilocybin mushrooms and other plant based substances including DMT. I had a very meaningful and healing experience aided by mushrooms with some close friends a few weeks ago, which involved opening up about some past shared trauma that a friend had been holding in, and led to a breakthrough in communication and togetherness.

California is looking at incremental steps towards broader legalization in therapeutic contexts, which is a step in the right direction:
