Look up CloudKit[1], many of these questions have been answered for Apple-native apps, but perhaps it's not obvious how to translate that to the web-world, or how to keep the object storage decentralised (but self-hosted shouldn't be a problem).

I'm also firmly in the native app camp. And again, Apple did this right. The web interface to iCloud works great from both Firefox and Chromium, even on OpenBSD, even with E2EE enabled (you have to authorise the session from an Apple device you own, but that's actually a great way to protect it and I don't mind the extra step).

It's probably harder to answer those questions if you can't build the solution around a device with a secure element. But there's a lot of food for thought here.

Always lots to learn, appreciate the insight.

It’s interesting that Postgres doesn’t seem to default some of these settings since they are clearly advisable as most cases.
What service are you using that's 4$/month? I've used the free tier of Render on the past which I enjoyed but the lowest paid plan is 20$/month.
Libertarianism and anarcho-capitalism is just pretty much interchangeable, for the reason below.

The keyword here is 'leads'. The libertarian's lack of government leads to a criminal enterprise, ie. a dog eat dog society.

As for small police force, what if police is outsourced to businesses? E.g. PIs, using AI.

If you still have military (and in this case, you do), you can just declare martial law, and use your military.

Sounds like this is just another attempt by Google to gather the data for itself but make it harder for other advertisement companies.
Stepping back a bit, we used to call these "programs". Why are they now "hosted"? I see this with recipe databases, fitness trackers, all sorts of things that have no reason to ever leave my laptop except when my backup job runs.

Shoutout to the adults like myself that grew up like this. On the one hand, you develop outside the box thinking, because you had to learn everything via trial-by-eroror - no one taught you how to think inside the box. On the other hand, it's tough to trust or ask anyone for help.
I think the author is saying that many things have changed since last post, the section "Upstream Wayland basically fixed most of the technical things I complained about" has a bunch of things that could be seen as "broken on the fundamental level" (from authors POV) in the past but today have been "fixed".

Except for reportedly losing 84% of its revenue, and apart from getting into legal trouble by not having staff fulfilling legally required roles…

If the people of the USA went into this eyes wide open and actually want to strip the federal government down to the bone and turn it into something much more like the EU — where states are sovereign and the "federal" part that remains is the bare minimum for smoothing inter-state trade, freedom for states to leave the union when they feel like it, and only a very small fraction of each state's income is shared with other states — then I'm sure they'll be very happy with this outcome.

But… are you sure you meant to do that? 'cause one thing it ain't gonna do is make y'all "great again". EU doesn't even have a single unified military (that's a matter for member states); and despite the Euro existing, not all member states use it as their currency.

Maybe HN ruined me, but I'd prefer a UI that isn't very pretty but information-dense, especially for a use case like this, and especially when the alternative is whitespace/tabs-galore in order to make data more spread out.

That said, it is ugly, like most Windows utilities tend to be.

IPC methods were actually used when constructing the foreign API prototype, since if you do not use JPype, the JVM must be launched in its own process. The IPC methods were used on the API level, with the JVM starting its own CPython interpreter, with CPython and Java using `cloudpickle` to send each other functions/objects.

Using IPC for all internal calls would probably take significant overhead; the user functions are typically small (think `lambda shift: shift.date in employee.unavailable_dates` or `lambda lesson: lesson.teacher`). Depending on how many constraints you have and how complicated your domain model is, there could be potentially hundreds of context switches for a single score calculation. It might be worth prototyping though.
Chrome improves IP privacy like they improved ad blocking and tracking with manifest v3. I'll stick to a chromium fork or librewolf and handle any IP privacy needs on my own, thank you.
> then makes cultural comments that invalidate the point trying to be made for no real reason. Like the race or location of the parent determines their childhood?

Cultures differ significantly in how they raise their children. My dad grew up in a Bangladeshi village. He has this story where a cousin was sick and asked for lobster (which back then was a widely available food in the villages). His parents told him they’d make it for him the next morning, but he died overnight. My dad always invokes that story when I try to impose limits on my kids. When my brother and I were growing up, they put a lot of expectations on us academically, but no gratuitous self denial in terms of food or toys or anything like that.

By contrast my wife is an old stock American WASP. She has a very different parenting style than my parents. She makes my kids wait for everything and tells them everything they want is too expensive (even though we could easily afford anything they want).
Doesn't that fall in the category of monopolization, which can trigger Antitrust laws?

I'm not personally convinced that minivans lend themselves to much differentiation. They all hold about seven people, and more dollars gets you more screens.

It's a box on wheels that gets seven people from point a to point b. The screens help stupify the kids in the back to make the journey quieter for the adults in the front. Nobody is shopping by zero-sixty times, the maintenance intervals are all about the same, and they all fit roughly the same amount of stuff.

The most differentiation you're likely to find is that one or two will fit a sheet of plywood in the back, which is admittedly a pretty fringe thing to differentiate on, and frequently only matters to the second owner who is a tradesperson who doesn't want a full-sized van and doesn't mind a few stains from the kids who used to ride around in the back eating their breakfasts.

Ironically, the Honda Odyssey used to be differentiated by having regular doors in the back instead of sliding doors. They clearly decided that that wasn't an advantageous differentiator, and went to sliding doors after just four years.
So for a test like this, do you just give it to everyone without symptoms?

For a very high mortality cancer is it even useful to test after you have reason to test?

I read about these tests and breakthroughs that involve general predictions and test, but I'm pretty sure when I go into the doctor I'm not screened proactively for all that much.
Shoup did point out that we often don't charge enough for parking, which impedes the construction of things like parking lots and garages, because the free space is distorting the market. However, blindly advocating for less parking is not always the right answer either. There is often some sense in requiring parking to be built in cases where people want to free ride on parking created by others.
I absolutely do not trust mail tools with a modern website. Tools of this caliber should not be advertised on sites with CSS. When it comes to mail, you don’t want something retail-facing or flashy, you want something that works and doesn’t change.

They're really not. Europe is diverse enough that you need to split it into quadrants to decide what countries are relatively similar. Like is Finland similar to Germany from an outside perspective? Yes. Is Finland similar to southern Italy? Absolutely not, you'd be better off comparing southern Italy and latin America, and Finland with Japan. Like seriously, those will have more in common with each other than Finland and southern Italy. People have told me Naples feels like Brazil... which is nothing like Finland, which has the orderliness and cultural restraint of Japan. North European,East European and South European countries are similar to other countries in those same segments of Europe. They are not similar across segments.
Ugh. Ick. I fear soon I’ll just have to buy commercial vehicles to get an AC dial.
My impression is that “hosted” is common parlance for programs that present as web applications, rather than typical executables. A web application is naturally capable of “leaving the laptop” so to speak, which is often one of the benefits/intents of the program design.

Of course, she instantly sees color details of nearby objects down to a millimeter, so shit ton of new information. Bringing this back to the joke she can now look at a colored strip and write down the colors in the order they appear on it.

OpenAI Reveals GPT-4.5 and GPT-5 Roadmap, Promises Simplified AI Experience
Isn't this still too high of a false positive rate to be useful? IIUC, if you give this to 100,000 people, it will give you 2,000 false positive results. But only 13.5 new pancreatic cancer cases occur per 100,000 adults in the U.S. each year [0]. So if you took this test annually, a positive result still means a less than 1% chance you have cancer?

[0]: https://seer.cancer.gov/statfacts/html/pancreas.html

edit: although that NCI data doesn't make sense to me. If only 13.5 new cases appear per 100K, how can that accumulate to lifetime diagnosis rate of 1.7%? 100000 * 0.017 = 1700; 1700 / 13.5 = ~126 years to accumulate a 1.7% chance of diagnosis.
Not increasing the unreliability—it's unreliable no matter what this early in the year—but it's possible that more old hardware made it in this past month than in previous early years which would explain why the number went down this time.
That seems unlikely, as it is just more bandwidth they'd have to pay for.
I'm not a father (yet), but I thought a lot about this, and I totally agree with everything. It is good to hear it from somebody with actual experience.
Indeed - at no point does the article quote a geologist expressing surprise at the result. There are quotes saying, in effect, that new data overthrows or requires modification of a previously-held conjecture, but that is not the same as surprise. Experts in a given field are usually well aware of how conjectural a hypothesis is, as that is where current research is focused.
> it could be faster (always true for any computer)

The question isn't whether it could be faster, but whether it's slow enough to be annoying for the tasks you use it for.

I bet most people would find the N100 annoyingly slow when opening documents or browsing the web, or doing crazy things like opening a few programs at the same time.
It is so bad that it is not worth assessing in the first place.

I wonder what the follow up test is like / cost. If it is highly accurate, but you end up doing expensive follow up tests for 2,000 people ... that has to factor into the overall "cost" of such screening right?

Show HN: I embedded GPT to stop wasting time on YouTube
Hey folks,

For the past 10 years, I’ve built side projects but never published them. I always assumed no one else would find them useful. This time, a lot of my friends pushed me to share it - so here it is.

Like many, I spend a lot of time on YouTube - learning, keeping up with tech, researching before I buy stuff, etc. But I got tired of 30+ minute videos packed with fluff when all I wanted was a simple answer.

So I built a Chrome extension that embeds a minimal chat next to your YouTube video. It lets you:
- Get quick summaries so you don’t have to watch the entire video
- Ask specific questions like “What database is he using and why?”
- Jump straight to key moments instead of scrubbing through the timeline

Under the hood, it uses OpenAI and pulls from the transcript, description, top comments, and even the current frame you’re seeing.

This started as a tool for myself, but I hope it helps others too. You can try it out for free.

Extension: https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/summd-youtube-summa...

Pls let me know if you have any feedback - literally anything is useful.

You can’t just walk into a third world country and expect the candidate pool to be a bunch of noble laureates (we barely have such a candidate pool in the West). Logistically, I would try organize via the government too for maximum effect.

Nonetheless, your investigation is important. We need way more testimonials to get to the bottom of these things. Are programs like USAID a grift, or are the people cancelling it the grifters, or is the answer the dreaded middle?

This is the only way we’re going to re-find the spirit of this country (because it is absolutely absent at the moment). Americans have always been proud of programs that carry the legacy of the Marshall Plan.

I don’t want to get rid of a program just because it failed, anything can fail. We need to know if the people getting rid of these things even believe in goodwill and charity. They may not, in which case debating the finances and accounting is the obvious distraction.

This is less about if we have the money in the room, and more so about did we put people with the right fucking hearts in the room.

An uncharitable person will fight goodwill even if it’s free.
We tag reviewers on Gitlab when needed, usually if the person is on a different team, but also we have a dedicated channel to post MR links and if they don’t get seen within a couple hours we bump the post a few times. When THAT doesn’t work we ping people privately.

Isn't this already public information? I agree the transparency is a great thing, and any data that is publicly available. Should be easy for citizens to research and see.

Is there a missing "product" for [easy] "self-hosting" in the cloud? (Or does it exist? Or will it only apply to a narrow kind of user?)

Like I think there should be some way to "one-button-click" install "self-hosted" apps in the cloud, tied to my personal account (and maybe with auth tied to that account). And I pay the usage fees for the cloud (hopefully on a per-request kind of basis, not an always-on server instance).

Is this a thing that I don't know about? Or is the market too narrow to be useful? (Otherwise, why doesn't it already exist?)
