Fascinating. I was hoping to see the "zero mile" marker in Alfreton and it was present. The fingerpost in Brownhills (in the West Midlands) is worth knowing as well:

Albany, the city referenced in the article, has a million people in its metro area. Yeah, rural areas tend to be ultra-conformist in most places; mid-size cities, less so.
Same... can't read anything if I can hear someone talking, even if I don't want to listen to them. Music and noise-cancelling headphones make it all better. I can't understand anything if more than one person is talking at the same volume. Maybe that's just normal and I'm bad at lip reading, though.

As far as anecdata, I've worn noise-cancelling headphones at least 40 hours a week for the past 18 years. Granted, my formative years pre-date noise cancellation, but I haven't noticed any impact to my hearing or audio processing. Pretty sure I'd be listening to music much louder without noise cancellation.
That would make a fun conversation with the CEO :)
True, but presence of significant revenue is still promising. It's much better to have an "expensive compute" problem than a "nobody wants to pay for the product" problem.
Show HN: Delegate – An AI that reads your email so you don't have to
Hey HN,

I’m excited to show you Delegate and get your feedback!

Why I built this: I hate email. I’ve struggled for years with extremely low signal to noise in my email inboxes. I get 20+ emails a day and most are spam, marketing, cold outreach, or other things I don’t care about and an unsubscribe purge rarely helps. Some emails are hyper-important and/or urgent, so I’d bounce between getting notified constantly or switching them off and missing important emails. Filters and other tools have never fully worked for me and tend to be very brittle.

The way Delegate works is that you tell it what’s important to you. I have instructions like:

- Never show me cold outreach from sales people

- For location-based security emails from apps, ignore them if it’s in my city, otherwise tell me immediately

- Include any sales on my wishlists in my briefing

- Send on any email-based MFA codes immediately (it tends to get them to me before they even show up in my email app)

Then when each email arrives, it reads it with my instructions in mind and follows this flow:

1. Important and urgent? Notify immediately

2. Important, not urgent? Put in morning summary

3. Not important? Ignore

It’s completely changed my relationship to email, but I don’t think this approach is for everyone or even most people. You probably already know by now if you’d find this helpful.

Right now, Delegate’s interface is a Telegram bot and operates based on email forwarding. I’m exploring other options for the frontend (Discord, mobile app), and since I know privacy and security is a huge concern for email, I’m also looking at building a self-hosted backend option. There’s also a laundry list of features I aim to build like sending quick responses easily, embedding emails for retrieval so you can ask Delegate to find anything you need, managing calendar, etc.

If you want to read more about the why and how, here’s a longer blog post: https://www.ideafuel.io/why-i-built-delegate-the-email-assis...
Here’s a direct link to the Telegram bot itself: https://t.me/DelegateUltrabot

I would really love to hear any and all thoughts and feedback on the concept, approach, and especially if there’s interest in an open-source, self-hosted version (ideally complete with local LLM for all processing).
Legacy code is code without tests. Doesn't matter if it's new or old.
Odds are your realtor just negotiated those details for you. It is pretty standard everywhere. Very few people want to move those heavy things, so realtors just put them into the contract, if you don't pay attention (you should!) you may not even realize this happened.
Albany isn't a particularly small town; it's a city with a million people in its metro area (though the city itself is only ~100k, so it's not a particularly big city).
I’d say it’s more like eating Chicken Cordon Bleu and then asking the chef for a recipe, who replies, “Certainly! Step 1) Acquire Chicken Cordon Bleu, preferably cooked. Step 2) if uncooked, cook. Otherwise, consume
Yeah, it was a typo, just deploying a fix. Thanks!
Not an interpreter! A compiler :-)

Have you seen a stack trace originating from somewhere within tokio? Nearly all useful information is lost. My contention is that by isolating the functions that are required to be written in Rust and then doing orchestration, spawning, etc in Scheme the additional debug information at runtime will make the source of errors much more clear.

I could be wrong! But hey there’s other reasons too. Being able to debug Rust functions dynamically is pretty cool, as well as being able to start/stop them like daemons.

To be clear, I had no idea that various early memories were from my first year until I talked to my parents about them. The memories that have been dated to my first year are:

* The time in the room where newborn children are placed. The events here were witnessed by my grandparents and told to my parents.

* The remnant of my umbilical cord falling off my belly button at my aunt’s house. That really hurt.

* My baptism. I had misunderstood the water as a prelude to being drowned and was terrified that the deacon wanted to kill me.

I assume that there are more memories from my first year, but since they do not correspond to something others witnessed and remember, there is no way of dating them to that year.

In the case of the first two, I had asked my parents about them when I could talk and they realized that I was recalling very early memories. In the case of my baptism, my mother had decided to recount my baptism talking about happy she was that I had been the only well behaved child there (the Catholic Church often baptizes children in batches). Upon hearing that, I remembered the event and responded complaining that I had only been quiet because I thought if I had opened my mouth to cry, I would have been drowned to death soon afterward. What was a fond memory for her was a horrific memory for me.
This is moving the goalpost on what "killer app" means. Code assistants are a compelling use of the tech that has quickly shown real-world value, which is the point I'm trying to make here.

Whether the companies that are leading the market today will end up being the ones who capture that value is anyone's bet.

>US involvement forced Israel to withdraw unilaterally from Gaza in 2005

Ah yes, history started in 2005. Let's talk post-2005 then. This was when Netanyahu, an elected leader of Israel, openly bragged about aiding and building up Hamas, a terrorist organization, in order to weaken the PLO's power. That is of course, until the chickens came home to roost. It would take a certain amount of delusion to claim that this was not the issue, but unoccupying a land unlawfully occupied was the problem.
I, for one, find the email-based workflow pretty intimidating.

If I encounter a minor issue in most pieces of software, I can submit a drive-by github PR in minutes. I wouldn't know where to start with Linux, and the "activation energy" is just too high for me to bother. (I'm not saying they should use GitHub specifically, but some kind of git forge with a web UI would be great)
Removing the network latency is a massive gain

People are comparing sqlite to RDS or whatever which completely biases the comparison. We have small apps running in containers talking to Postgres in a container via kubernetes networking on the same VM.

Benchmark.bm{ |x| x.report{ 1000.times{ ActiveRecord::Base.connection.execute("select 1") }}}

user system total real
0.040279 0.012958 0.053237 ( 0.080539)

0.08 seconds for 1000 DB queries is not causing network latency problems for any real world app. Just use Postgres unless you really have good reasons not to.

The OG Moist von Lipwig
Lots of people dervive great value from things that are too easily reproduced to be directly profitable.

Google gives everyone free access to a good spreadsheet tool, even though Microsoft Office exists.

Web browsers are free, despite the value of the entire internet.

Compilers are free, despite the value of all software collectively.

LLMs being really valuable doesn't automatically mean anyone can get rich from them.

I think everyone last year parroting "moat!" was cringe (like Altman of all people wouldn't know about this already, c'mon), but you do actually need something that other people don't have. I expect Altman's already got stuff in mind, but he's hardly the only one, and that means it's a game of "which multibillionaire with lots of experience building companies will win?", and that's hard for non-skilled normies (in this case incluing me) to guess.

You managed to miss the entire point of the post.

It is obvious from your simplistic comment that you need to acquire a much broader perspective before being able to interject with value in a conversation on this topic.
> And cumulatively, these things are not cheap,

A few decades ago you'd be completely right - but these days, tools are cheaper than ever.

Washing machine hose, £7 [1]
Hole saws, £8 [2]
Wrench £8 [3]
Spade drill bits £6 [4]
Adequate drill £35 [5]

So £64 for the lot - about US$ 80. If you're in tech, the value of the time you spend driving to the store will probably be higher than all the tools you'll buy while you're there.

And if you're thinking "Oh at those prices the tools will be low quality" I can assure you, they'll be good enough for this job.

I would be very curious about the size and complexity of this codebase. Every review of Devin I’ve seen has been very negative (burns a ton of money, gets stuck, doesn’t implement the changes you want).

For large codebases (greater than 15k or 20k LOC) the context size seems like a real problem right now.

The standard time for evacuating an aircraft that has to be demonstrated for certification purposes is 90 seconds with only half of the exits usable. It generally helps that the fire is (at least initially) outside the cabin most of the time. But yes, I wouldn't bet on conditions in the plane staying survivable for 90 seconds in all cases.
It's absolutely not sufficient, and the lag has nothing to do with it. Wood dust is nasty, it tends to get through slightest cracks, and the protection has to be airtight. I've been sanding an old log cabin with an angle grinder before repainting it, and I had to visit an ophthalmologist to pick a piece of dust from my eye. I had safety glasses that looked exactly like [1] and the holes were enough for the dust to enter.

I was working for my university’s assistant dean.

He was using school funds to have us make an Iranian real estate app. Pulled together a team of 5 students working 4 hours a day.

It was all sorts of weird and he was nuts.

One day at standup my laptop speakers weren’t working, so I asked them to wait for me to reboot.

When I got back he said “your computer problems are wasting our time” to which I responded “these hour standups are wasting our time.” He then said “okay, we no longer need your services and I was fired on the spot”

While technically correct, the Tesla that Elon bought has basically nothing in common with current Tesla.
Some of these sound like upsides to me. I've owned a lot of older cars, and they're always a mystery box of "what will fail next?". So many moving parts, and they're often hard to diagnose.

Based on your comment, I expect newer cars to have lower maintenance and repair costs, fewer part failures, and less guessing about exactly which part is broken.
You should never pump your brakes, even if you have no ABS. What you should instead be doing is "threshold braking", so you should have as much brake pressure as you can without locking up the tires, and if you lock up, you release as much as you need until you're not locked up anymore. If you just pump the brakes in rhythm, you'll have longer a stopping distance as you're just alternating between no braking and too much braking.

Thankfully most cars on the road at this point are going to have ABS, which just allows you to stand on the brake pedal in an emergency.
It is intentional, and I think it's a mistake.

Plenty of changes aren't suitable for drive-by contributions, but many are.

I know a scheme here in Switzerland where the company also provides lodging and services and such, for a cost of course, which cost is then deducted from the big salary thus bringing it to much lower and better palatable levels ("better" for the company doing the tricks of course). It works quite fine in IT because IT is not a protected domain, and much more difficult (not impossible though) in areas like construction - where you have unions and collective agreements.
I don't think it's a good idea to have a mix of both in a codebase, because then you'll have to be good at both - kind of defeats the purpose.
Credit to the engineers that built this, but it fills me with rage that Elon has this sort of unchecked power.

How long before this starts getting deployed in safety critical applications or government decision making processes?

With no oversight because Elon seems to have the power to dismiss the people responsible for investigating him.

Anyone not scared by this concentration of power needs to pick up a book.

In the last few days I discovered it's good at medium-complexity SQL, not at really more complex ones. I'm struggling like 4th day with Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini and Deepseek. All could do some good analysis with some low-hanging fruit improvements, but all went completely crazy when trying to optimize more complex things, getting into loops proposing the same changes over and over, outputting invalid SQL, and gemini even forgot what we were doing, asking me if I could paste again the query i included in the very first message. Maybe the chain of thought models would handle this better, but I believe I hit the limit for the standard ones.

Forearms for me. Best advice I can give for young guns is start preventative breaks/stretches/exercises now. I saw it coming and pushed myself over the edge anyway. I've gotten to a pretty good place with a kinesis keyboard (the cheaper split one ) and some custom foot pedals for Ctrl/Alt/Shift, but have never been the same as before.

Also, lift weights. Squats/deadlifts/bench press. Hasn't helped my arms much but been a game changer for back and neck pain.
Yeah whatever. VCs will keep backing entrepreneurs, that's their job. Until there's a better way to get 10-100x returns, we're fine.
Composability is the often cited benefit. As an example, I can do the following in Active Record (Ruby):

class Account < ApplicationRecord
scope :active, -> { where.not(active_at: nil) }

belongs_to :user
end

class User < ApplicationRecord
scope :born_before, ->(born_on) { where(birthdate: born_on) }
end

active_users_with_birthdays_today = Account.active.joins(:user).merge(User.born_before(Date.today))

Contrived, of course, but it's not hard to see how you can use these sorts of things to build up record sorting, filtering, etc. Doing this by hand wouldn't be very fun.

What is the competitive landscape looking like these days for Rust web frameworks? I couldn't help but feel a bit insecure last time I was exploring the various options because none of them seemed to have the maturity or longevity of frameworks from other languages (for obvious reasons).

Is there one framework that stands out from the rest from an "investment risk" perspective? In other words, if my company is going to choose a framework to build a website, which one has the lowest odds of burning me by becoming abandoned or unsupported?
I hoped to be wrong but no comment so far even tried to bring a based argument... eh, maybe I'll try again in a year.
It’s not fine because ORMs never make sense as an abstraction layer. They try to map concepts that are inherently incompatible. Relational databases are designed around set theory and strict schema constraints, while object-oriented programming relies on hierarchical structures and mutable state.
