Push notifications work with any app. It is nicer to group notifications by app, and have app specific behavior. Emails add an extra step to get to the content in the app.

Gmail does push notifications. Otherwise, have to wait for the client to poll the server.
Beautifully explained.
This applies to just about every single country in the world. There are no countries in the modern world that operate on the gold standard, which means they all print just about as much money as they want and deflate the savings of their citizens.
What agricultural diversity? The 89% of farms are “small” and produce 18% of the value on 45% of the acres. They are generally more hobbies than business, and as such rarely efficient enough to be the sole source of income for people. Non commercial farms are plentiful, but not necessarily useful.

“Family farms” are more impactful, but that’s including operations with 50,000+ acres and large workforces.
While I'm not truly someone who agrees with Democracy, I do abide with the established rules.

That means, everything you do as a long term solution, needs to be approved by executive, legislative and judiciary systems. This is how every healthy Democratic Republic works.

If you have policies made by executive order, it means only executive power have approved them, which is partially an autocratic policy. This is not new, and constantly abused by Democrats and Republicans over the year.

Because USAID was created by Autocratic rule and did not passed by legislative and/or judiciary approval, I think it's fair to be dismissed by any other president, congress or judiciary any time.

If the people think the government should keep growing up and spending lot more tax payer money, sure, but make it approved by the people, not by the president (or prime minister at other countries).

"Bonus depreciation" exists for cars too, but is capped around $20k. From quick reading, seems like the bonus depreciation for planes was a tax break to incentivize people to, well, buy more planes.
I deal with the main/master brouhaha by using a script I wrote that determines the name of the appropriate branch:

#!/bin/bash

git remote show origin | sed -n '/^ *HEAD branch: */s///p'

It's in my `$HOME/bin` as `git-master`, symlinked as `git-main`.

git switch $(git master)

(`git foo` finds and executes a `git-foo` command anywhere in $PATH, a handy feature if you want to implement your own extensions.)

(This is of course irrelevant to the topic of the top-level post.)

I think I’m having the same experience as you. I’ve heard multiple times from execs in my company that “software” will have less value and that, in a few years, there won’t be as many developer jobs.

Don’t get me wrong—I’ve seen productivity gains both in LLMs explaining code/ideation and in actual implementation, and I use them regularly in my workflow now. I quite like it. But these people are itching to eliminate the cost of maintaining a dev team, and it shows in the level of wishful thinking they display. They write a snake game one day using ChatGPT, and the next, they’re telling you that you might be too slow—despite a string of record-breaking quarters driven by successful product iterations.

I really don’t want to be a naysayer here, but it’s pretty demoralizing when these are the same people who decide your compensation and overall employment status.
Here is a way to monitor these changes in real-time: https://play.clickhouse.com/play?user=play#U0VMRUNUIGNyZWF0Z...

The SQL query:

There are plenty of successful people. How do you want to define success? Elon got rich by turning TSLA into a meme stock. Do you think he would be rich or as rich right now if twitter never existed? He got rich on paper once, with TSLA stock, every other attempt at making a business has been a failure. He doesnt have a track record, and the financials for tsla are not inline with how the company is actually doing. Sales now are slipping.

> And having failures is not that uncommon, especially for serial entrepreneurs.

IDK how you can call this anything else but luck. He got forced out of paypal with a ton of money and was able to keep taking risks because of the safety nets he had that most do not.

He also threw a fit and left openai, that was a poor business decision.
> they can't be monetized

Yeah difficult to corporately commercialise, however they can be statusified.
Advocating for the right of minorities and other disadvantaged groups to exist is not “world politics” and it saddens me that I’ve had to say this multiple times on this site.
You can't expect Elon Musk and the kids running DOGE (a fake "department" named after a meme coin) to think like you do.
Why would pay taxes on paper wealth? That argument is disingenuous but no doubt the author intended it to be.
Did you tax money fund any master->main branch renamings?
So to me this seems like an issue, set aside the constitutional/legal issues.

It sounds like, from the reporting, one person is modifying a large complex system that handles trillions of dollars and pushing directly to production.

Also he is not familiar with the system, having first encountered it a week ago.

Also the people who do normally have access to this system do not know what he is exactly doing, because normally, it is illegal for them to even access the system in the same way.

Any idea which dating app Paul Gonsolin is talking about here? This is a lot of data.
I think you're making GPs point. We see this exact argument being used against more urban types? "If they didn't want to be saddled with crippling student loans, they shouldn't have gone to college to get a degree leading to an exciting career of basket weaving".

Great, but they did and now they're hosed. Just like in this case, perhaps those ranchers shouldn't have become ranchers and thus caused themselves to go into incredible debt. But they did and now they're hosed.

One can choose whether or not that we the people should help them out when in this situation, but we should apply that with more quality.
I wonder if there is a big disconnect partially due to the fact that people are talking about different models. The top tier coding models (sonnet, o1, deepseek) are all pretty good, but it requires paid subscriptions to make use of them or 400GB of local memory to run deepseek.

All the other distilled models and qwen coder and similar are a large step below the above models in terms of most benchmarks. If someone is running a small 20GB model locally, they will not have the same experience as those who run the top of the line models.

so, the linux foundation (or torvalds himself, whatever) should run a entire datacenter right now?

You know running an anctual datacenter with all its cooling ,storage, networking and power requirements is a full time job for several people right? Why not put bare metal in someplace which already does that for far cheaper and better?
Since you are, I assume, Swedish, this has essentially no relevance to your life, but if you get bored, and you have some way to access it, Mississippi Public Broadcasting made a movie ( https://www.imdb.com/title/tt31805076/ ) about an FM station that broadcast from 1968-81 in the modest-sized market of Jackson, Mississippi (uh, about 250-300k people at the time).

Because of the way a lot of stuff around broadcasting works, a small-ish life insurance company ended up with a 100 kW FM station (along with their existing TV and AM stations), a lawsuit challenging their AM, FM, and TV licenses over their (implicitly and explicitly racist) behavior, and as a result, a bunch of very diverse DJ's, mostly in their 20s, with almost no oversight.

When the station was sold, the new owners immediately switched to country, which AFAIK it still is. The fact that local bands at the time wrote songs about it should give you a hint. Yes, the movie is a big late-Boomer/early-GenX reminiscence-fest, but there's a lot of interesting detail there. The DJ's partnered up with producers, bringing big shows to a relatively small city. Some started a record store. One ended up in charge of organizing group tours to concerts in near-ish cities (still 3 hours away in any direction) because, as he put it in the movie, he had a better weed connection than anyone else at the station and so could actually bring enough for everyone.
The reason war may be coming is because the West is falling apart. The US is isolating itself and bullying its allies. Alternative powers wanting to do something expansive never had a better moment in time to do so.

There was no war forthcoming between an integrated West and any other power. War is coming because there no longer is a West.

I'm willing to stake my reputation on the idea that yes, LLMs can improve your speed. You have to learn how to use them effectively and responsibly but the productivity boosts they can give you once you figure that out are very real.
My preferences are the opposite, but my mental frame is more about utility than about safety. I'm not worried about someone fishing for something I said that could be construed as commitment or admission - they can just as easily do that with e-mail[0]. For me, conversations can be extremely valuable, and I gravitate towards people and places where that's a common case. HN is one of such places - the comment threads here are conversations (half-way in form between chat and e-mail), and they often are valuable, as people often share deep insights, interesting ideas, worthwhile advice and useful facts. Because they're valuable, my instinct is that they need to be preserved, so that myself and others can find those gems again, or (re)discover them when searching for solutions, or read again to reevaluate, etc.

So now imagine such (idealized) HN threads transplanted to Discord or Slack. Same people, same topics, same insights, just unrolling in the form of a regular chat. All that value, briefly there to partake in, and then forever lost after however much time it takes for it to get pushed up a few screens worth of lines in the chat log. People don't habitually scroll back very far on a regular basis (and the UI of most chat platforms starts to rapidly break down if you try), and the lack of defined structure (bounded conversations labeled by a topic) plus weak search tools means you're unlikely to find a conversation again even if you know where and when it took place.

That, plus ephemeral nature of casual chat means not just the platform, but also some of the users expect it to quickly disappear, leading to what I consider anti-features such as the ability to unilaterally edit or unsend any message at arbitrary time in the future. It takes just one participant deciding, for whatever reason, to mass-delete their past messages, for many conversations to lose most of their value forever.

[0] - Especially that the traditional communication style, both private and business, is overly verbose. Quite like a chat, in fact, but between characters in a theatrical play - everyone has longer lines.
3 seconds would not matter to me. As it is, latencies are much higher and afford time for my family group chat (WhatsApp) to "spoil" events that I have not yet seen. I don't want to ignore the chat. :(
I may plea the fifth, i.e. I'm not sure what this entails but would love to hear more. Also feel free to file a feature request.

Naively, I would argue that being idiomatic in the respective ecosystem is more important than perfect consistency. Only few users will likely use 2 or more languages and probably even then there's a balance to be struck.
In the US at least I don't think it's legal anywhere without a permit. I've seen videos like op has posted, it's usually rescue animals being looked after not actual housepets
Ah, sorry, I was referring to the speed of the resulting Roc compiler.

A Roc compiler written in Zig would compile Roc code significantly faster than a Roc compiler written in OCaml.
Ask HN: What's the your best experience with a CI system with code on GitHub
I'm evaluating CI tools for projects hosted on GitHub in a medium-sized enterprise. Looking at CircleCI, Jenkins, Bamboo, GitHub Actions, and Buildkite.

Since GitHub Actions is the default option, everything else is essentially being compared to it. But none of them really stand out—most have some limitations when working with GitHub, while GHA itself feels pretty barebones, requiring extra work to build out missing features (like proper test reporting).

For those who’ve worked with CI and GitHub, what’s been your best experience? Any lessons learned or recommendations?
Sort of. Without ATC you would still be safe - but airplanes would be much less common as no sane pilot will get anywhere close to other planes without someone in control to watch separations. That means instead of planes landing every 30 seconds they will be once every several minutes to make sure everyone takes turns - this isn't just about the runway, it is also the patterns around the airport, with many airplanes refusing to join the pattern because they are not sure they can fit in that close. Airports with more than one runway (which is nearly all commercial airports) will have issues trying to get patterns to work and so likely some runways won't even be used.

But if you do manage to get in the air you will be safe and get there. You would get used to long waits in hubs and 3 transfers to get there unless you live in a hub and are going to a hub. (Boston to Salt Lake city would be fly to NYC, then to Denver, then to Salt Lake. Even Boston to Atlanta would be a transfer in NYC). Those transfers would also involve long waits, right now airlines plane everyone to arrive at the hub and leave again more in about an hour and then little traffic for several hours. However after airlines will not coordinate schedules as they can't land so layovers will be several hours.
I think there's a middle ground

Provide options for people that get motion sickness the same way we provide accessibility options. Let those of us that get less motion sickness get the "full experience".

So far I'm lucky. I've only got sick in VR twice. Once from trying Breath of the Wild via the Labo VR kit. Once trying a hacked GTA-5 VR. Both made me feels incredibly sick, far beyond what I'd have expected before experiencing it. So, I'm super sad that some people experience this more and I hope we can find ways to accommodate them.

That said, I played Half-Life: Alyx back when it came out. In my mind I assumed teleporting, the default, was the way to play because I assumed stick motion (normal joypad controller based FPS motion) would be more sickening. But, for me, it turned out after a few levels, teleporting felt worse than sliding. I think because each teleport was so disorienting.

Strangely, I got zero motion sickness from Jet Island. One of my top 5 VR experiences of all time and at a glance would also seem to be the most likely game to make people sick. Why it doesn't I'm not sure other than the obvious (fast framerate)

https://store.steampowered.com/app/587220/Jet_Island/

To add, I got a 38inch wide monitor. Playing any first person came on that screen full screen makes me sick. I have to play all PC games in a window now. I think if I switched back to a 27inch monitor I wouldn't have that issue.

It's interesting everyone's saying the UX is bad. I've had consistently good interactions with Vanguard's support over the years. I regularly get to talk to an actual human without waiting more than 10-20 minutes, and they're very helpful about getting things done and giving even basic advice about tradeoffs in different investing options.

The website isn't amazing, but I don't feel like it's terrible either. There's much worse 401k/IRA providers out there.
Another theory: when you swipe and don't get a match, that could be considered a rejection and women are worse at handling rejection (probably due to never having to learn to deal with it). Men, on the other hand, have to learn to accept rejection so little is felt when almost all swipes don't match.
Nujabes tragically died in 2010, at the age of 36.

Another Japanese producer I like who straddles "lo-fi hip-hop" (but perhaps with more classical and vocal elements) is DJ Okiwari. Here's the track "Brighter Side" which draws on the vibe of '90s uplifting progressive hip-hop / R&B - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l23qmgf51z0
I wouldn’t worry about it yet, at some point they’re going to impact the same population who showed up for J6; those folks are highly motivated under the right circumstances, and were unconditionally pardoned.
It's helpful to view working solutions and quality code as separate things to the LLM.

* If you ask it to solve a problem and nothing more, chances are the code isn't the best as it will default to the most common solutions in the training data.

* If you ask it to refactor some code idiomatically, it will apply most common idiomatic concepts found in the training data.

* If you ask it to do both at the same time you're more likely to get higher quality but incorrect code.

It's better to get a working solution first, then ask it to improve that solution, rinse/repeat in smallish chunks of 50-100 loc at a time. This is kinda why reasoning models are of some benefit, as they allow a certain amount of reflection to tie together disparate portions of the training data into more cohesive, higher quality responses.
I'll do you one better: in this specific situation, the antisocial buck stops at the friend group who doesn't all chip in and buy their Android friend a "keep in touch" iPhone.

But the point remains that a cynical UX/technical/business decision that does not need to be so is rending real relationships between actual people. If Tim Cook had the power to render anyone who didn't pay him $400+ mute to their friends and family through some sort of black magic, we'd call him a comic book supervillain.
I mark when they changed their motto as the turning point.
A better analogy might be that mom bought groceries for the starving family down the road with a check and you cancelled the check, stole the checkbook, and changed the bank account password.
They were talking specifically about the VR mechanics though, not gaming in general.
> Flutter apps feel completely _wrong_ on any platform except Android [...] Flutter explicitly eschews standard web technologies in favour of either one big canvas or lots of little canvases.

I think you're confused about how Flutter works on Android. It's not native to Android, it uses canvas with custom drawn implementations of most components there too – same as it does for iOS/macOS/web.

How often do you think that occurs?
It should be noted that the FAA is facing a lawsuit alleging it discriminated against capable candidates[1]. If this is true, this surely must factor into the shortage of air traffic controllers.

Admittedly, its a big if, and second even if it is true it is not clear to me how much of a factor this is in the shortage.

One of the most important skills to develop when using LLMs is learning how to manage your context. If an LLM starts misbehaving or making repeated mistakes, start a fresh conversation and paste in just the working pieces that are needed to continue.

I estimate a sizable portion of my successful LLM coding sessions included at least a few resets of this nature.
Undoing a century of progress in a fortnight without using weapons must be some kind of record.
I'm in your boat with having to write a significant amount of English documents. I always write them myself, and have ChatGPT analyze them as well. I just had a thought - I wonder if I could paste in technical documentation, and code, to validate my documentation? Will have to try that later.

CoPilot is used for simple boilerplate code, and also for the autocomplete. It's often a starting point for unit tests (but a thorough review is needed - you can't just accept it, I've seen it misinterpret code). I started experimenting with RA.Aid (https://github.com/ai-christianson/RA.Aid) after seeing a post on it here today. The multi-step actions are very promising. I'm about to try files-to-prompt (https://github.com/simonw/files-to-prompt) mentioned elsewhere in the thread.

For now, LLMs are a level-up in tooling but not a replacement for developers (at least yet)
More like dying of thirst in lake Baikal, if the analogy meant abundance of choice. Desert and ocean both contain no drinkable water.
Probably? I have no frame of reference, I've never done giant distributed systems before. I just noticed that earlier version had some slowdowns but I think I was just improperly fetching the images ahead of time.
Seconding this. Their reasoning is unsound to the point of comedy, their arguments are nonsense, they have a fundamental misunderstanding of science, technology, society, etc.

Because they don't fucking care. They have an agenda. Sometimes it's rooted in bigotry, religion, or just antisocial beliefs, but they have an agenda and they can (and will, and are) execute it.
What if you divide the work by time? Give each person a two-hour workday. Would that reduce stress?
