Nope. My 2014 MBP is a happy camper and use it daily at home. No blocks whatsoever.

That's true though. Laptop power management is not there yet, but I prefer Linux over anything else for the last ~15 years or so. I use Mac laptops because I like the hardware and see where another UNIX based OS is.

> Mac on the other hand is an absolute nightmare to administer for clients. Same with their phones.

I think Apple phones are relatively easy to mass-manage via Apple Configurator, but MDM is a totally different story in macOS. Glad that my machines are not managed.

Great write up! Do you have any plans to create your own Arch Linux installer that bundles all your steps together so other users in your situation might be able to have a simpler time getting all the mechanics operating if they're Linux users but not as skilled as you?
I have honestly never trusted VPN providers in any shape or form. I had a university professor back in the early 2010's who said something very accurate: "Proprietary services providing anonymity provide everything but anonymity". I'm far more comfortable running a vps somewhere when I need to. And even then, VPN is kind of an exception since I hate fiddling with the setup(as easy as it may be). For most of my usage, an SSH tunnel as a socks proxy does it all and when I'm done, kill the vps and move on.
Cursor is indeed an amazing tool. I use it daily as well. Have you tried using it with any other LLMs, or are you sticking with the Claude Sonnet 3.5 and OpenAI O1 combo?

Btw have you explored any AI frameworks like JAX or Haiku?
Had the same thought from the headline, but the punchline is that he's using the VPN he completely built himself and can't even trust that one.
OSX is particularly lousy with remembering user preferences and configuration. I quit using it after I grew sick of raging at it forgetting what applications want different files to open with. I've never had this sort of problem on Linux.
Governments are adopting the international outreach of megacorps.

Megacorps are adopting the level of competence of governments.

I see no contradiction here.
Oh yes, because the other companies don't call machine learning 'intelligence' ;)
The headline is "European Road Safety Orgs Are Terrified of the Cybertruck", but the text says: When it comes to avoiding harm to consumers via sensible government regulations, Europe has always been miles ahead of America. Sadly, the safety orgs note that, even by America’s greatly reduced safety standards, the Cybertruck may not qualify as a safe ride.

Clickbait title doesn't match article.
Looks different, from that docs page they're using a mix of:

- ZeroWidthSpace,

- zwj (zero width joiner, used with emoji modifiers like skin tones),

- zwnj (zero width non-joiner, used to prevent automatic ligature substitution), and

- U+FEFF (zero width no-break space)

It's a clever system, thanks for sharing the link to it!
I would say that the title is misleading. The author set up their own VPN, but didn't delve into what the config options they used actually do until they ran into problems. Everything else follows from that.
A bit below in the github readme there is a link to the handbook where they explain how to build and run the project using cargo:

Show HN: Pulsable – Auto-Generate Skeleton Loaders from Real Elements
Hey HN!

I built Pulsable, a lightweight library for creating skeleton loaders, and here’s the cool part—you don’t need to design skeletons separately! Pulsable can automatically convert your real elements into skeleton loaders, saving you time and effort while keeping your design consistent.

GitHub: https://github.com/abdheshnayak/pulsable
Demo: https://codesandbox.io/p/sandbox/pulsable-kyzztl
Features

Auto-Generated Skeletons: No need to design custom skeleton loaders. Pulsable converts your real elements automatically.
Lightweight & Dependency-Free: No external libraries required.
Customizable: Modify shape, size, colors, and animation speed.
Minimal Setup: Seamless integration into any project.
Enhanced User Experience: Creates a better perception of speed.

Why I Built This

Creating separate skeleton loaders can be tedious and prone to inconsistency. With Pulsable, the UI elements themselves become skeletons, ensuring consistency while speeding up the development process.

I’d love your feedback and suggestions! Let me know if there are features you'd like to see or ways to improve it.
The article doesnt quite match the headline in the way your reply suggests. Trust, in this instance, is more about accidental leakage and installers not tailoring the OS to have Up and Down watchers to apply DNS changes.

It's not about whether the VPN provider can be trusted.
or bog-standard ssh server + bitvise local client.

EDIT to clarify because i feel many might not be aware how easy it is: 1) enable port forwarding in your sshd config (implies you can't just do this on a server which you don't admin and which has this disabled) 2) point bitvise's socks5 proxy server feature at the ssh server 3) point anything that needs to be tunneled at the bitvise client's port (default 1080) e.g. firefox. 4) voila, packets leave and return via the ssh server's public IP.
Even without the questionable legality of these individual certifications, we are afraid of large scale American SUVs spreading on the continent - it's not just the Cybertruck we do not want on our roads, it's also other dangerous stuff like the Dodge RAM.

Our road system, the education of our kids, it's all based on vehicle drivers being actually able to see children on the road, and for vehicles to actually fit in our roads. American SUVs/trucks fundamentally break that assumption and thus cause a danger to our roads.
GPT and Drugs dot com both suggest individually trying these as needed: metronidazole/tinidazole, nitazoxanide, albendazole. I would try them only one at a time, not together. I fear that taking metronidazole and albendazole together might also risk SJS or some such adverse reaction. The doses of each are well known. Rifaximin is also commonly discussed in such circles, but it wasn't mentioned.

Even before these, I would try taking just 3g activated charcoal daily for up to a few days, but away from all medicines. It often (but not always) proves quite beneficial for me.

As for ivermectin, it won't hurt to try it, but we haven't established a connection of it to chronic giardisis.
The tragedy here is that expectations differ.

I would expect my laptop to use my local DNS server if the VPN is up. My local DNS server is the one I have on my home network. The rest of my traffic, I would expect to go through the VPN tunnel.

Problem of course is that VPNs used to be expert-level stuff. This kind of "avoid government blocks" use of VPN wasn't even common when I started fiddling with OpenVPN around 2001/2002.

A VPN (in this context) is hardly a VPN if it doesn't traffic dns requests, and it's probably the false advertising by the "you need a vpn to securely access the internet" companies that misinformed OP what type of VPN they were setting up.

No one is selling it as a feature, no, but I would still consider it an OS level bug, and a security one at that. Focusing on the browser is a step away from the point: if I'm not signed in, I don't want sound playing from any app⁰.

I've had Windows do something similar, a media player deciding to unpause when coming up from hibernate (this was before Windows seemingly broke hibernate) and for some reason being at full volume, and it was a fair few seconds before I was able to login, get to that app, and hit pause again. It didn't leak anything sensitive (Hey everyone, this guy watches Stargate!) but it made me “that guy we all hate” on the train… Again it is the app that is responsible for making the sound, but I think at that point the OS shouldn't let it.

<glasses tint="rose">I miss the times when laptops had physical volume sliders…</galsses>

To me this has the feeling of making a mountain out of a molehill, but I don't think there is any denying that the molehill itself exists and to others it might be more than the very minor irritation it could be to me.

> I bet that if you configured the browser to never auto-play, this wouldn’t happen.

I bet that no matter how tightly you try to control that, some advertiser will find a way to override it to make sound play, and sods law says that will happen when you most want your waking laptop to be quiet. Blocking audio while not signed in at the OS level is a safer gate.

----

[0] Actually, there is an exception there: if the machine has locked due to input inactivity, I want audio I'm listening to continue and notification pips to come through. There is a distinction between OS restarting (from [re]boot, wake, etc.) and local console not logged in due to input timeout, in how I'd prefer things to behave.
Samsung wants future phones to have no Settings menu at all
Yes, certainly. I was talking more on how Explorer had the long-range cabling made default while with Symbolics it was an option, although CADRs already had pioneered the long range setup including switchboard (what would be called KVMs today) at AI Lab. That said, it seemed to me that longer cabling was less in use with G- and I-machines, but that's just me looking over scraps that went onto internet.

Symbolics also definitely had an edge in graphical processing, though I've seen mentions suggesting that for pure CAD works that didn't require high-definition video output Explorers sold quite well?
The technique you mention is very outdated and not used anymore. Current thin-bezel OLED panels (even on flexible substrate OLED) use a packaging technique which can be used in the exactly same way on rigid LCD panels. Folding the substrate with driver bonded is expensive, affects yields, and doesn't even get you the thinnest bezels

There are no LCD panels in recent phones that use COG packaging (chip-on-glass) for the display driver and run into the limitation you mentioned. Almost all current LCD phones will utitlize COF (chip-on-film) where the TFT array is attached to a flex-pcb which also contains the display driver.

You can achieve bezels just as thin or thinner using this technique, and Apple has used the technique you mention only once, COF is used even on flexible OLED panels.

That's the thing, my comment wasn't about that long analysis or doing the proper fix. It's all about asking if this is the root cause or not, or is there a similar related bug not yet identified.

What is coding?

Actively typing in code, maybe 30 minutes long term average, with spikes up to 8 to 10 hours when the road ahead is clear and what to do is obvious, which happens about once a year for a few weeks. It's quite rare outside of greenfield, which itself is rare. It's much more common in hobby projects.

Debugging? Sometimes I can spend several days debugging a problem, not actively writing any code which goes into production, but creating harnesses, ad-hoc logging, verification / assertion routines and so on. The amount this averages to depends heavily on the maturity of the product and the health of the code. A mature product with a gnarly codebase means a lot more time debugging.

Reading code? I spend a fair amount of time reading and analyzing code before a chunky task, figuring out where the seams are, where the data I need comes from, what the best places to add code are, figuring out data flow. When I'm at the start of a task like that, I can do that for 3 or 4 hours a day. But long term average, it's more like 10 to 20 minutes?

Reviewing code: this is similar but different to reading code. I don't do as in-depth reading as I do for a task, but if I find something suspicious and I want to make sure I'm right, I can go for an hour or two on research, to prevent something problematic hitting production. But I guess this averages about 20 to 30 minutes a day long-term. I don't do as much code review as I used to when I was more senior roles before. Expect a lot more code review with more seniority.

Who is "we"? I, nor any parents I know, actually are.
I use LLMs for 80%+ of our code, but of course it is always human reviewed and tested. We use all types: llama, gpt, claude, gemini, replit, grok and others: we want to know which is the most productive (it's by a large margin sonnet 3.5 for what we do; gemini is terrible so far).

We are fine with code generated to be executed immediately (has to be to be productive really), but once we are satisfied, we won't let the PR get get approved without reviews.

3) It's full of whipper-snappers with 6 months of experience who think they can explain your job to you, who have been doing it for 30 years.

IME many arguments around Rust aren't focused on its technical properties, but boil down to "I just plain don't like you people."

If Rust can successfully become "boring", a lot of the opposition will go away.
