> All of the companies I cited are hugely profitable.

You cited them because they are hugely profitable, ignoring the ones that are already defunct. And the entire premise is that a company can simultaneously be posting profits while doing the thing that will ultimately destroy them.

> And your argument for Microsoft is that they are in a death spiral because they only have 70% of market share on the desktop, and are shrinking by 2% per year, so in, uh 15 Years they might only have 50% of the market share!

Platforms have a network effect. They're doing so poorly that the network effect from having 90% market share isn't enough to prevent them from losing market share. But now they only have the network effect from 70% market share, which makes it even easier for customers to switch. That's how you get a death spiral.

> Also, please ignore that they successfully diversified their revenue streams to other markets (Cloud).

Which are in turn dependent on customers using Windows so they need Active Directory etc. See also:

> And your evidence is that they failed to capture the mobile market. While you also argue that Google is in a death spiral when Google is actually the company that won the mobile market.

It is unquestionably the case that Microsoft lost the mobile market, which is the larger market. Android has the most worldwide market share, but Android is free to use and generates revenue for Google only to the extent that people want their services. If people stop wanting their services and switch to e.g. another search engine, how does it save Google from this even if they're using Android?
Makes sense. That’s why it (and TikTok and many others) are banned in China.
This is one of the few cases where I, a person who once dated a self-proclaimed "eat the rich" communist, think that Musk's politics is really useful.

Why? Lefty eco-conscious plant-based-diet types like me switching away from ICE cars is not sufficient to fix greenhouse emissions, and the only way to get everyone on board is for someone to make vehicles for the political tribe that wants to own and drive the exact sort of vehicle that people like me want kept off public roads, vehicles like Cybertruck.

So, if we're having a big fight left/right battle over "is Cybertruck bad" and that battles leads to all the Republicans in the USA buying one as a status symbol just to "own the libs", that's great, because now everyone is going electric.
How to Use Google's ReCaptcha V3 with NextJS 13 and the New App Router
My understanding is that while they generally have, and there may be some form of legal requirement that they provide service to private cars, in the last six years or so Amtrak has been increasingly restrictive, with some suggesting that they are trying to make private cars practically infeasible to use. There seems to have been a battle between Amtrak and private car owners that started in 2018 [1], and it's unclear if there has been any resolution to that.

Ask HN: Any tool for managing large and variable command lines?
I often find myself building up big complex command lines for testing my code, which live in my shell history.

Sometimes it's possible to just wrap these up in scripts but often my invocations of that script get so variable that I need many flags etc and now the commandline gets really long and I'm back at square one.

A little hard to describe in the abstract so here's a present example:

- I wanna compile a kernel and boot it up in QEMU, then SSH into it.

- But sometimes, I wanna skip the build (it takes a few seconds to detect that the tree is unchanged)

- Sometimes, I wanna boot with a different special disk file.

- Sometimes, I wanna change the networking setup. Sometimes this requires me to charge the part of the commandline that SHH's into the VM, to match the changes I made to the QEMU commandline.

- etc etc

So I just have a huge command line in my shell history and I bring it up and manually edit it each time.

But I think it's possible to make this process more convenient. An inspiration for this is Magit, an Emacs plugin that allows (among many other things) building up and stringing together lots of complex git commandlines with varying flags, via a few keypresses in a discoverable text UI.

I wonder if something like this already exists? If not I think it could be a fun design challenge. By looking at the shell history and using heuristics about common CLI design patterns perhaps you could automatically create keyboard shortcuts.
Last time I went to an Airbnb that was actually the home of someone else was in 2016 or so. I assume most Airbnbs are apartments made explicitly for using them as Airbnb rentals. Same logic applies to Robo taxis. This won't happen. The "private space" argument is quite strong imho.

I still think it's crucial to recognize OpenAI's impact on the field, because without them ChatGPT wouldn't exist and it's unlikely any other organization would have developed such advanced LLMs so early (or even released them for free). It's easier to come second and release stuff for free to appear "generous".
WTF. I was a kid out looking at cars with my dad. He was looking at Lincolns, saw one he otherwise liked, and noticed that the gap between the driver’s door and the back seat door was wider at the top than the bottom. The salesman tried to have the shop adjust the door so that it was aligned, but then it was misaligned in other ways (like the edge of the driver’s window was higher than the back seat’s window). He never looked at another Lincoln, ever. Choice quote: “I’d never be able to look at it without seeing that skewy door and it’d make me mad every time.”

Fit and finish are absolutely things that non-geeks care tremendously about.
Yes, very different situations. If for no other reason than that in one situation every involved party had consented. Including Iran, tacitly.

The reason it was “de-escalatory”: It helped Iran prove what it sought to prove: no AD in the world will stop their missiles from getting through. For Israel it provided the face-saving “99.9%”.

Also, the Ukraine situation has no Jordan, Iraq, accessible ocean (ask the Turks about that) to operate from.

It's true that the US moves more freight by rail compared to for example EU. But that doesn't mean the reason for this is the mostly excellent passenger rail system in the EU. I'm not an expert here at all, but for example this article cites a few plausible reasons: https://www.freightwaves.com/news/why-is-europe-so-absurdly-...
This certainly isn't true now though. No matter what the car makers want, they have to face the reality that in the relatively near future non EVs will be banned.

Right now VW is even protesting suggestions that the coming ICE ban should be overturned.
In Racket, a vector is a fixed-size contiguous array of memory. The values in each slot of a vector are tagged pointers so values like fixnums don't require any indirection to reach (i.e. they're unboxed). Racket also has specialized vector types for storing fixnums (fxvector), floats (flvector), strings (string) and bytes (bytes).

Other Schemes and Common Lisp have similar constructs. Just because a language is a lisp doesn't mean its primitives have to be implemented using cons cells.
Wasn't Private Location removed from the store though? If it's the app that I'm thinking about I used it before but it stopped working because the map API changed which broke the app and it never got updated, so it was removed. There should be a github issue about that somewhere.
Right. My point is that if you don't find that Google aligns with your morals, simply don't work for them. If you do, you've already violated your morals. Protesting your own employer just proves that on top of having bad judgment, you also have no loyalty. Two good reasons to be fired.

Meta is not in the AI business. Meta is in the attention business (in this case, actually, no pun intended). If AI is not your product (as in: not how you need to make money), you can be be "generous". Making other peoples products less competitive by aggressively subsidising part of your business is not that cool of a move.

If Meta starts being all open and generous about their core assets, we can start talking. But we will not start talking. Because that will not happen.
Bluetooth, radio, usb and using your phones hotspot is still an option (tho unrealistic given how shit iOS hotspot is)
Well for starters Meta has a lot of consumer facing stuff like social networks. And they are also able to produce hardware devices (being a much bigger company too). OpenAI had to invent the whole AI market but building customers is harder.

The bigger question is why google is so incompetent with AI now. Granted they still have Google Search monopoly but I think search without going to Google will be the future.

I do wonder if the most profitable AI stuff is coming from Microsoft due to their B2B skew.

That’s an extraordinary claim requiring extraordinary proof. I can’t imagine any brand spending tens of millions of dollars to make a car that they don’t want to sell.

Sounds like being a U.S. vassal state is an excellent place to be.

Which is actually truer than one may think. Most U.S. “vassal states” do excellently, including much of Europe, Israel, Saudi Arabia, etc.

The primary reason behind that is they are not vassal states. The U.S. doesn’t have vassal states (outside of maybe Puerto Rico) and yes it has expectations of its allies but those are surprisingly low compared to even the shitties states to be vassals of. Compare what the U.S. expects of Saudi Arabia or Japan (what impositions does it place?) to what Russia expects of its vassal states (many of which it has literally taken over by force), or China (look at what China is doing to BRI countries like Pakistan and Sri Lanka…hollowing their economy out and getting paid for the privilege…) or even India (which has gone on an all out economic war against Mauritius because a couple of clowns in their government said something they didn’t like).

Heck, even to the extent China or India are succeeding economically it’s because of the U.S. economic ties. China is almost entirely built by American investment over the past few decades. And even the subject of this specific story, Zoho, part of the Indian IT ecosystem, is entirely a result of US economic partnership starting in the 90s.

It’s not an exaggeration to say that American “vassal statehood” is literally the only path to economic success and prosperity since WW2.

Yea but I wouldn't be so happy with nationalized rail tbh.

We have the MTA in NY, they run the railroads and subways. The agency is massively bloated by costs not just where it costs $1.5 billion per mile to expand the subway, but even the railways are bleeding billions per year.
All of this changed after Tesla started to show its claws and to be taken seriously

Absolutely Tesla is almost single handedly responsible for getting the EV market from where it was 10 years ago to where it is today. Without Tesla the EV market would almost certainly be years behind where it is right now. No argument from me on either point.

The question is any of that relevant today? Tesla paved the way, but now the market is wide open and 'everybody' is jumping on. Does Tesla still have anything special to offer or will they just be another midsized 'luxury' car brand

If that were true they would have worked on the model 2 instead of the Cybertruck. As it turned out the model 2 is shelved in favor of robotaxis.

TBH, it doesn't matter too much what their intent is because they can't make a cheap car. Battery prices have not dropped fast enough.
You are right. I made the necessary corrections.
I suppose the difference is that Meta didn't just contribute to Torch, they created it. Meta seems to be quite good at open sourcing things in a way that provides real value to people.

> How do you replace all of the non-driving tasks of a taxi-driver? (cleaning, lifting bags, etc., helping with elderly/disabled people).

This was my thought too when it was first discussed, but now he wants to use the same AI to power a humanoid robot, which (if it worked) would make this easy.

My guess is that the performance of AI necessary for humanoid robots will not be available in a fully independent form-factor for at least 5-10 years after level 5 full self driving… but that belief is due to the electrical power envelope, so a humanoid robot whose sole purpose is these kinds of non-driving taxi related tasks, that I can believe may come sooner.

Yes, you should be able to run apps you want in a way you want. Not the way the manufacturer or OS vendor wants.

Of course sandboxing options should be available, but if you wanted to run an app fully unrestricted, you should be able to.

I am still quite upset that I cannot run call recording apps on Android as they can't obtain permission to record audio during a call.

edit:

Just to add, call recording is legal in my country. Years ago it saved me from losing money when insurance company attempted to scam me. I agreed to a policy over the phone based on the promised features. When I got the documents mailed, it turned out most of what was promised was missing in the agreement. Then company said they never promised these things and wanted to charge me substantial cancellation fee. Once I told them I have recordings, they backtracked on everything and cancelled it.

The other ways I found it very useful was recording calls with my doctor so I could listen again in case I forgot or misheard something and also I used to record calls with my very ill relative to have some memories of him.

Now I cannot do that anymore.

Ctrl+F "env", nothing, "local", nothing.

The article title gives me flashbacks to when I had to work on a project that was all-in on AWS serverless stuff, and we had a single dev environment (there could be only one person at a time working on a specific service), that was also used by other teams (so, many times when we tested stuff we received complains that it was broken because other teams' services were pointing to ours).

And no, there was no way to test locally and "no time" to even try.

There was also a test/staging environment that required waiting a few days between the moment you request a deployment until the moment it was actually deployed.

And the best part, all environments had very different Terraform files, so there's some stuff you could only test when you deployed to the staging environment, and some stuff you could only test when deploying to production. Each deployment with a waiting time measured in days.

[thousand yard stare] So much time wasted.

> I am guessing the only reason Tesla shares would be up since they would take a cut from the earnings?

Tesla shares are actually up because the earnings call seemed to deprioritize the pie in the sky robotaxi plan in favor of shipping a cheaper car ala Model 2, much to the relief of every investor listening to the call.

If Tesla doesn't release a cheaper model they have no hope of competing in China, especially as BYD is completely relentless with both their pricing and their internal efficiencies (they are selling EVs for 10k USD and turning a ~20% profit according to last BYD earnings).

Technology wise Tesla still has a lead on non-battery components, especially in terms of simplified wiring harness/better vertical integration of electronic components and software but none of those are important if they can't translate into operational efficiency. My theory is they actually do translate very well but other fuckups Tesla has made means that on net they are still losing ground.

China is the world's biggest EV market by far, not just in terms of volume but also by $ amount. Tesla's very strong valuation for the last several years was based on their strong market position there (and the growth it implied) which has
now quickly eroded (and their future revenue potential with it).

Unless their market share numbers get back on track in China expect the stock to continue to decline.
