To be fair the current court in 2025 is a different court than 2018, and in 2024 they overruled a long standing precedent in the chevron doctrine. It wouldn’t be out of the realm of possibility that this court would disregard Riley.

I do agree that it currently like the court is broadly pro-privacy but I also think it entirely depends on the case and its specifics.
There are a lot of people who will not even consider the Tesla brand anymore

Tesla US sales were YoY lower in 2024 while other brands grew

https://finance.yahoo.com/news/us-electric-vehicle-sales-hit...

> Tesla continued to lead the way in unit sales with 633,762 units sold for the full year. The bad news is this figure was down 5.6% year-over-year.

> Tesla led the way in EV market share hitting 48.7% for the full 2024 year and was at 44.4% in the fourth quarter. In 2023, Tesla's EV market share was 55%, dropping from 65% in 2022.
"...we are increasingly seeing athletes, like the skier Lindsey Vonn, 40, and the climber Chris Sharma, 43, staging midlife comebacks... You can absolutely be fitter at 40 or 50 than you were at 30."

Chris Sharma is still a god but he's a less of a god now than he was at 30. To peak in your 40s it helps to have not been in the greatest shape when you were younger. There is nonetheless still a lot of fun you can have with your body.
> Democracy would be a lot better off if we thought about voting the same way.

civic duty should be emphasized in school more. It's not a 10 second exercise every 4 years. It's something to be vigilant about indefinitely, and forever. Any change to laws, or any votes, require scrutiny, rational thought on the choices, and personal maximization.

Unfortunately, people are too lazy, or too dumb, to do this, and choose to listen to someone else's recommendation on votes.

So democracy represents somewhat of an averaged choice of the population. As the population becomes dumber due to lack of good education or cadence, their choices become increasingly worse.

Authoritarian regimes don't have this problem. The average person in one don't get to make many, if any, choices. The elites make them all - and if the elites are more altruistic, the country generally do better than average.

I mentioned "remaining" as the explicit political aspects are in all religions, it's just that as we came to modernity states became secular, and only Islam remains with that element still largely in tact.

I did mention the Jewish state as well, but imo, since it is based partly on ethnicity even for open non-believers, it's kind of a mix between a secular and a religious state
In this instance the person with low media literacy would be the one that prefers a reframing of a raw PR over the source PR release.

Nothing of value has been added, the "article" simply perpetuates an illusion of journalism when merely rewording content handed out for the lazy to copy and the somewhat less lazy to shuffle about.

If you're interested in media litracy you might want to watch future and past episodes of Media Watch or equivilants from other countries.

Technically they're right, though; the textbook definition of REST is rare to nonexistent in my experience. What people do instead is create JSON-RPCs-over-HTTP APIs, sometimes following a REST-like URL scheme, and sometimes using different HTTP verbs on the same URL to perform different actions as one would in REST... but the API isn't really REST. The creator of REST has gone on the record multiple times about how you shouldn't call these APIs REST[0].

But in practice when most people say REST they just mean "JSON RPC over HTTP". I avoid calling things REST now and just use "JSON HTTP API" to avoid the "well, actually..." responses. (and yes, these APIs are by far the most common.)

Anything which is front ended by a CDN tends to end up faster than your connection for even the fastest connections. That leaves most of the web, updates (Microsoft/Apple/Google), content services like Steam or cloud storage/backup providers, and centralized piracy like Usenet (decentralized like torrents obviously vary per the seeds for each torrent).

It's certainly convenient my games, AI models, cloud backups, and large file downloads tend to go many times faster than when I had gigabit but I'd by no means be crying on the sides of the road about how long things take to upload/download if I had to go back.

The biggest thing you'll run into is algorithms designed to increase performance for limited connections don't scale infinitely. E.g. updating games on the Epic Games Store tends to be core limited (even on an overclocked 9800X3D) rather than bandwidth limited because it puts so much effort into the encryption and differential updating with the assumption "it'll be fast enough to not worry about". Even in those cases... it's nice to max them out without even having contention on everything else you're doing.
Awesome work.

Sidenote: That marketing video was nauseating, it was moving too fast and didn't show any features for long enough or for enough steps.
I don't know what role NIH played in the Covid response, but if they carry some responsibility for the previous administration's decision to force/coerce people to take the vaccine against their will then it seems fair that the new administration should hold them to account.
That's not how colored light actually works. (That's the joke!)

There isn't a silver "color" of light, it's a visual phenomenon that warps and reflects the color of the environment around it.

So unfortunately there are no silver colored light bulbs (except for using a silver coating to block or reflect the light).

Maybe it's that shiny reflective things like disco balls are therapeutic, imparting modernity, sophistication, intuition, reflection, coldness, or disco fever.

And China... is number 2 right now? There are 1.4B of them. Literally more people than entire continental Europe, North America and Japan combined. I just don't get the idea of looking down on them, when for the past 15 years they've been on a roll. Sure they have problems, but so does every country.

Also, I don't think you realize how much Japanese have hatred towards foreigners. I will go as far as saying Chinese and Americans have more in common than Japanese and Americans.

Anyways, my whole point was clowning a huge economy because of its political ideology is only valid when they keep losing. Right now? It's the opposite. Time will show, I guess.
If you want a much more detailed treatment that covers both every aspect of the technical issues, as well as the corporate and government malfeasance that lead to the disaster, consider “Truth, lies, and O-Rings” by Allan McDonald, the Thiokol program manager who would not sign of off on the launch and overruled by his executives. He had good things to say about Feynman, and definitely some axe grinding for other individuals.

> Tailwind gives CSS a "place" in the codebase. It benefits orgs, not necessarily apps.

That is a better argument. But couldn't we be able to achieve that by, e.g:

- Create one standard HTML document with a predefined structure and including all the web components needed by your product.

- Having all designers and frontend developers developing their CSS (or SCSS) against this single base document

This would be basically the CSS Zen Garden approach. It would still keep separation of content and styling and it would create a "place" for styling code.
I would disagree with that on principle and in observation.

However you are missing the point. Even if you suggest that it could be done better by the public sector, the mere existence of the public sector program is not evidence that the public sector solution is optimal. An appeal to the status quo may have pragmatic relevance, but it doesn't rationalize public sector solutions as optimal.

We will have to agree to disagree where you assert that we would all be naked, homeless and starving if not for the public sector.
It’s not about computing power, it’s the inadequate algorithms, and ultimately the lack of scientific knowledge. Nobody has figured out how animal brains provide the plain old common sense you’d find in a fish or a frog, nor do we have any idea how to emulate that in a machine, even though in pure bits/second a 2025 supercomputer easily outperforms a frog. It’s not just robotics or 3D navigation: Veo2 still screws up object permanence, o1-pro still screws up distinguishing small quantities[1], and 99% of AI agents are simply infeasible because they have no clue what they’re doing beyond shallow pattern-matching.

[1] I imagine the same is true for o3. We simply don’t know how to make an AI that actually understands what numbers are in the way that toddlers and pigeons do.

Congratulations! From someone who does mixed electronics+mechanical design: this is hard. There are moments of desperation where you realize that everything depends on everything else, and there is no way to achieve all of your design goals. You then have to realize that engineering is all about compromises, and move on, compromising — but this is very difficult. It's easy to get bogged down in details and dependencies and never finish the project.

It's very impressive work and it makes me so happy to see real hacker news on HN. This is real hacking.
It was exactly like that with Putin, as well. To remind, the guy was elected fair and square in a landslide originally. And there were people back then who screamed from the rooftops that if you elect a former KGB operative as a "strong hand", that'll be the last free elections that you'll have. And yes, there were many in the middle who laughed at them. I wonder how many of those have left the country since.
My hat is off to you, good sir. Way off. This is an unbelievable accomplishment, doubly so given that you're still in high school (!!!), triple-so given the time you did it in, quadruple-so given that you did it all yourself, etc etc etc.

while it's true that there's quite a few non-votes that far outweight the margin of victory, they're all spread out and not in states that held marginal votes. It may actually indeed be the case that their turnout would not affect the results.

However, turnout don't only affect the results, but future results.

Politicians look at votes to determine their future trajectory - those who don't turn out won't be seen at all, and would be treated as if they don't exist. After all, why hadn't the native indians got the vote until legislated, and why slaves too, until some compromise was reached?

So voting, regardless of your effect on outcome, is important. I only wish the vote was easier, as some people need to take time off work to vote, or have to trek far, or make arrangements which would be inconvenient. For example, making postal voting easier to get is a good starting point.
It probably needs you to tear up the street and that's hard to get approved.

What I Would Want from a New Job
A couple of years ago I had my 6Mbps ATT DSL reduced down to less than 1Mbps, to the point of being absolutely useless. I had no forewarning or notice that my service had been compromised. Every attempt to obtain support from ATT was met with attempts to get me to switch to cellular internet.

Fortunately I was able to get accepted into the StarLink early access around that time and managed to cancel the DSL. Even though ATT clearly did not want my business anymore, they still made sure I had to jump through countless hoops to finally disconnect and terminate billing. I had to sit on the phone for a couple of hours, being transferred between phone reps and managers until I finally got one person with the authority to shut my account down.

Question for people who are good at CSS stuff. I am not.

I'm upgrading a personal Phoenix project to 1.7, and Phoenix now uses Tailwind by default. So I thought I'd try and update my one page thing to use it instead of Bootstrap.

So far, it looks like crap whereas the Bootstrap one looked 'good enough'.

What's the easiest way to get something that looks kinda sorta decent, with some nice defaults, without trying to become a designer?

Or should I just reinstall Bootstrap and be done with this.

Perhaps. I’d hazard a guess that:

1. TikTok is far less profitable without the kind of data collection that installed apps allow.

2. The average user doesn’t like interacting with websites as much apps for this purpose and might prefer to use alternative social media networks instead.
In general there is lot of theory, but there is not app that can help you practice with real data and guide you. This app tries to do that.

I think it's part art of prompting, and part problem scope -- they're not gonna get you a super polished final product without a LOT of support (yet), but they excel at rapid I-don't-care-what-the-code-looks-like-just-get-me-an-interactive-prototype work, and at solving specific problems (e.g. the function should do THIS, write it and write me a test suite). However, there are some agentic IDEs like Windsurf that are working to have LLMs orchestrate their own work. Well supported with a rock solid test suite, I've seen some people do pretty incredible things with them. The more a codebase provides tools for LLMs to live of the land in terms of tests and comments, the more aggressive you can be with what you ask them to do.

I've built a couple pretty simple apps that have been basically no code beyond tweaks for me.

I do think a big knowledge gap is the acceleration of prompting by knowing how to talk about code. LLMs show a lot of difference in response between "make the top bit stay on the screen on small screens" and "make the <th> element sticky for viewports <600px".
Thanks for the information. It helps. People like me just don't know.
Yeah, I probably should summarize my whole comment with:

It's not really about the current crisis in Gaza. What they want is a seat at the table to influence future policy.

They believe they won't get it with Republicans. If they voted for Harris, they know they won't get it with the Democrats either. Their only hope for a seat at the table in the future is by hurting the Democrats now.

But as I said - they probably didn't hurt the Democrats much, so all of it won't matter in the near future.
I don't think it's just FPTP, given that other countries that have it are nowhere nearly as polarized.

I think it's actually the combination of FPTP and open (or at least broadly accessible) primaries. In Canada and UK, parties generally have much more control over their primaries, and party elites generally try to exercise that power to ensure that candidates don't upset the existing arrangements too much. Not even necessarily as a deliberate strategy, but when you have to work your way through the "smoke-filled rooms" as a candidate, that filters out the purists and favors those willing to compromise. US was also like that for a long time, and notably we didn't have this degree of polarization then.

But once primaries are wide open and the party no longer controls the candidates, it seems inevitable that more extreme candidates will win. They appeal to the more ideologically motivated voters who are generally more likely to show up and vote (especially so in the primaries), and so any candidate who wants to win there has to appeal to them first.

43% of eligible voters in Mississippi didn't vote. 42% in NY and 38% in CA. That's a significant amount of people who could have swung the election either way despite them being "safe" states. Any state can be in play if turnout ever increased significantly. And even if your state voted your way federally, did every local/state race go to what would've been your preferred candidate? I doubt it.
I’ve never liked the no true scotsman nature of REST (which is exacerbated by the fact that its canonical “specification” is a broad PhD dissertation with a lot of other concepts thrown in), so I have adopted a fairly lax definition: if your URLs are subjects and you use HTTP verbs for the verbs, I feel like it qualifies.
It's great actually. Nothing else like it.

> "it's all a priority, get it done."

Reminds me of a product owner I had who abused priority categories by insisting that the majority of his tasks were "top priorities" because he had discovered that any time he didn't mark a task as a top priority it wouldn't get done.

Every team ended up sorting his tasks as a flat list so that when he asked people to "make this a top priority" it was up to him to decide where it went in the list and which of his other requests would get bumped.
