Given developers' experiences with Apple Arcade[1] I'm not holding my breath. Either Apple just doesn't really care about gaming, or they're culturally unable to provide an environment that would attract game developers. No amount of game porting toolkits will help with this. iPhone still gets plenty of (mobile) games simply because the potential audience is too big to ignore. The Mac doesn't have this luxury.

I've had mixed results with this approach. What happens when I try it is:

1. I communicate DATE and CONFIDENCE_INTERVAL
2. My manager hears DATE and CONFIDENCE_INTERVAL.
3. My manager tells project-manager "probably somewhere around DATE"
4. Project-manager hears "DATE"
5. DATE becomes what people thought I said.
In the US healthcare system a bag of water with salt costs hundreds of dollars. You can cap the price of one thing and then the whack a mole game starts.

The conflicts in the middle east costed trillions of dollars and there is absolutely nothing to show for it.

Quantitative easing costed trillions of dollars, most of the people responsible for causing the crisis got a big pay day from it.

If someome became "the richest person" probably you can learn something from that person. Without SpaceX, the US would have to use Russian rockets to put stuff in space because NASA shuttles were retired. Is that something you would like more?

The US is at the verge of bankruptcy and it is not because of $400m in trucks.

And it is not a Democrat or Republican issue, as I said, everyone is getting rich at the expense of the taxpayer, even taxpayers that haven't even been born yet are in debt already thanks to a wasteful mentality.

And the fuel spilled both away from the fuselage and onto snow, which both kept the main focus of the fire away from people and limited development of the fireball as well.

Kerosene (Jet-A) is relatively nonvolatile and tends to burn most violently when dispersed in air. It's not quite as heavy as diesel fuel, in which you can extinguish a lit match, but conditions in this incident probably limited flame development considerably.
Microsoft weren't hired by Id to port Doom. They did so exclusively for their own purposes: to show off Windows 95 with DirectX as a performance gaming platform. They licensed the Doom engine, made their own changes, and released Doom 95 usable with a retail copy of the game assets.

Oddly enough, the project of "porting Doom to Windows" was started by Gabe Newell, who worked at Microsoft at the time,

I went to see Nosferatu at the opening weekend here, at the local IMAX. It was completely packed, and I was a bit worried when I saw >60% were teenagers.

To my pleasant surprise everyone was quiet. I didn't see or hear a single phone, and only the occasional muffled crumpling of some snacks. During the long quiet parts I'm sure you could hear a pin drop.

So at least here in Norway it's still possible to enjoy a movie at the theater.

The asteroid's orbit is not changing, so the likelihood of it hitting Earth is not changing.

What is changing is our knowledge of its orbit, which improves as new observations are added over time. Doing that shrinks the volume spanned by all trajectories compatible with the data. While the uncertainty is still large compared to the volume of the target (Earth), this shrinkage removes empty space, so it increases the odds. If the actual orbit does not intersect Earth, the odds will start going down once further shrinkage removes trajectories which do.

There are some reactor designs that use aneutronic fusion, which eliminate this particular issue.

Not needs to, chooses to do so. If the entire business world decided to shutout these sorts of people they would cease to have any influence, power, or wealth, improving the quality of life for the entire human race.

As as society we've been putting wealth, greed, and power above all else for a very long time, and this is the end result. We can do better, if we simply choose to.

About 30% of the games I own on Steam would run on my Mac. I think that's quite much for a platform that nobody likes to develop for. But to be fair, I have few mainstream games like CoD, LoL or whatever.

I find it amusing that many left-wing people are only now getting up in arms about the extent to which our government has been infiltrated by money interests. I understand not wanting to work for Trump's government, but why not just leave it at that? If this person was willing to work for the Biden administration regardless of it's billionaire influences, it betrays that this issue, for them, is a rationalization and not a reason.
Technitium is great. Rock solid, plenty performant and it has more features than you'll ever need. Pretty wild when you consider it's being maintained by a single dev.
My suspicion is that software is no less patentable in France (or the EU as a whole) than it is in the US. Which is to say, throw in a generic processor and it's kosher enough to get granted. (Even in the US, Alice says that "do it on a computer" isn't enough to get granted but... that's exactly what happens, and given the long, long list of European patents in the video codec space, it's clearly happening just as much in the EU).
Kafka at the low end: how bad can it get?
Well, AI also has something else for it : at this point, no one is expecting any ROI soon, but they all imagine that it's going to be huuuuge, so the "expected" (as in, "wished for") ROI might as well be infinite.

As soon as AI investors start demanding dividends, then the ROI of investing in AI will be compared to the ROI of investing in electricity production "for production sake".

Every now and again one of these come up in a PR and I hard reject it every time. Its clever. Its neat. Its elegant. And it takes a giant ass white paper to explain it to people. Please please please don't use stuff like this when other people have to read your code.
While I generally agree with your comment, a lot of people actually use it because they don't use a password manager and it's more convenient then.

One additional benefit to having OAuth2 support though is that you can easily set up SSO if needed (and you don't care about SAML or other SSO protocols). For me personally this will be useful for an NGO that I'm running where we have Google Workspace effectively serving as a Single Sign On server.
Show HN: SuperCV_bot – Your Personal Job Helper in Telegram
Imagine your resume, LinkedIn profile, and cover letter as your personal billboard. They shouldn’t just inform—they should sell you as the must-have candidate. If your CV is dull and generic, if your LinkedIn is half-baked, and if your cover letter reads like a copy-paste job, your chances of landing that dream role shrink fast. Let’s talk about how to turn these three tools into power moves that get you noticed. You can create a very good resume using this bot - https://t.me/SuperCV_bot

Let’s start with your resume. Ditch the cookie-cutter phrases like “motivated and results-driven professional.” Nobody buys that. Instead, kick things off with a punchy summary—just three or four lines that make someone sit up and take notice. Something like, “A seasoned marketer who tripled conversion rates in a year and was invited to speak at a major industry conference because of it.” That’s the kind of opening that hooks a recruiter.

When listing your experience, don’t just rattle off job titles—tell stories. Worked in sales? Don’t say “managed client relationships.” Say, “Closed a deal with a client who initially refused to even take my call.” Numbers are your best friends: “Boosted reach by 40%,” “Drove $5M in revenue in one quarter,” “Cut a five-hour process down to 30 minutes.” This makes you sound like a real person, not just another resume in the pile. I highly recommend using this bot to help you write your resume - https://t.me/SuperCV_bot

Now, onto LinkedIn. This isn’t just an online resume—it’s your personal brand. The first thing recruiters see is your photo and headline. Your picture should be on point: businesslike if you’re in a corporate field, a bit more relaxed if you’re in a creative industry, but always professional. And your headline? Forget “Sales Manager” and go for something like “Helping businesses find clients—and clients find businesses.” The “About” section is where you bring personality into play.

First-person is the way to go—people love stories. Try something like, “I started out in cold sales, where I got rejected 200 times in one week. A year later, clients were coming to me through referrals.” This makes you relatable and interesting. Instead of just listing job titles, include success stories, links to projects, and testimonials. If you have articles or case studies, showcase them. If colleagues can vouch for your skills, ask them for recommendations. LinkedIn isn’t a static document—it’s your 24/7 networking tool.
Eliminating superfluous bureaucracy is fine.

Note that DOGE fired, and is struggling to rehire, the team whose job was to mainain America's nuclear arsenal.

Also note that the stated goal of DOGE, $2T, exceeds the entire discretionary budget of the federal government, even though half the discretionary budget is your entire active military.

Even treating $2T as a stretch goal, eliminating literally everything but the military from the discretionary budget doesn't reach the lower $1T that Musk says he has a "good shot" at.

Cuts on this scale directly, all by themselves, even aside from all the other economic diasters that America expressly chose to vote for as a package deal with this, will shrink the US economy about 6%.

Import taxes aren't going to help without serious, long-term government subsidization of those jobs.
About 90% of our energy production is hydro, and in addition our weather is such that few places are above 25C/80F during summer so it's not common to have or use AC.

Hence not a lot of energy usage during summer compared with winter, as most heat their homes using electricity.
It was the year of Halley's Comet.
The quote you posted doesn't support your assertion that "this means that the government "flag and suppress"ed information even when it was true", it's not even related as Stanford University is not a government agency.
At least they're funding a lot of useful open source development with that money pile.
Fun fact: Gabe Newell built the original WinDoom port, and led the team that built Doom95!
Yes, there are significant issues. Nothing we do not anticipate solving, but still. It will take time and solving these issues in a resource-effective way so that it can actually work as a power plant will be a challenge.

> But fusion often use it's pending development as an argument against fission - a technology we already have and desperately need to adopt now.

If it helps, CEA is also doing a ton of R&D on fission (and batteries, among others). But there, the real issues are mostly political.

> If the population almost doesn't grow anymore

The overall population isn't necessarily growing very much. But populations of the different areas throughout the country are pretty different from even a few decades ago. Many old towns (and old homes) are just no longer economically viable after the industries that gave people jobs in those towns moved away.

Lots of extremely cheap houses in certain places. Good luck getting decent city services or a well-paying job anywhere nearby.
A trillion rows should be no issue at all for ClickHouse. Your use case sounds a bit more typical for it (our data is simulated so there is no single / monotonically increasing clock). I don't know though, is this ~100KS/s data acquisition type stuff (i.e. sound or vibration data for instance)? If so, it wouldn't be possible to push that into ClickHouse without pre-processing.
> Babies are also almost completely unable to move around by themselves and are constantly frustrated by their lack of agency. They are extremely vulnerable and utterly dependent on the kindness of their parents and other older humans in their environment. They lack language so have no other way of communicating than screaming, which is often also a cause of great distress because of an inability to communicate a basic need (and on that note, even knowing what those needs are half of the time, given that the ability to make sense of ones own senses is still being developed).

While mine did certainly scream when they were hungry (or annoyed, or bored, or I picked the wrong red crayon, etc.), they also had non-screaming verbal communication.

Both my kids started "talking" very early (I wanna say within the first or, at most, second month of being born, but "and we'll remember this when we are old and ancient though the specifics might be vague". In any case, definitely while babies), it's just that we (obviously?) didn't understand them. But they had a very definite "language" of different sounds, which was also different between them if we compare it.

Screaming is a good way for babies to get attention, but it's certainly not the only one!
Legacy is when you have a shell script call an ant script that calls shell scripts that call make scripts that fire c precompile requests to a remote database. (Of course it's now packaged in docker because it runs on a version of linux that makes the infosec guys come visit you at your desk)

Oh and every subsystem shares dependency references that are only used by one subsystem.

Oh, and the C includes are wrong and overwritten by the shell scripts and make files.

GOOD LUCK

OH, and your team is too scared to use the simplified build because there are too many things they don't understand, even though you did hash comparisons for every built artifact.

I for one am just excited that a Nostr post has organically made it to HN front page!
This is the first article I’ve come across that truly utilizes LLMs in a workflow the right way. I appreciate the time and effort the author put into breaking this down.

I believe most people who struggle to be productive with language models simply haven’t put in the necessary practice to communicate effectively with AI. The issue isn’t with the intelligence of the models—it’s that humans are still learning how to use this tool properly. It’s clear that the author has spent time mastering the art of communicating with LLMs. Many of the conclusions in this post feel obvious once you’ve developed an understanding of how these models "think" and how to work within their constraints.

I’m a huge fan of the workflow described here, and I’ll definitely be looking into AIder and repomix. I’ve had a lot of success using a similar approach with Cursor in Composer Agent mode, where Claude-3.5-sonnet acts as my "code implementer." I strategize with larger reasoning models (like o1-pro, o3-mini-high, etc.) and delegate execution to Claude, which excels at making inline code edits. While it’s not perfect, the time savings far outweigh the effort required to review an "AI Pull Request."

Maximizing efficiency in this kind of workflow requires a few key things:

- High typing speed – Minimizing time spent writing prompts means maximizing time generating useful code.

- A strong intuition for "what’s right" vs. "what’s wrong" – This will probably become less relevant as models improve, but for now, good judgment is crucial.

- Familiarity with each model’s strengths and weaknesses – This only comes with hands-on experience.

Right now, LLMs don’t work flawlessly out of the box for everyone, and I think that’s where a lot of the complaints come from—the "AI haterade" crowd expects perfection without adaptation.

For what it’s worth, I’ve built large-scale production applications using these techniques while writing minimal human code myself.

Most of my experience using these workflows has been in the web dev domain, where there's an abundance of training data. That said, I’ve also worked in lower-level programming and language design, so I can understand why some people might not find models up to par in every scenario, particularly in niche domains.
> ...the magic ingredient in all these frameworks is signals, which allow you to have reactive data without having to have a UI framework to provide lifecycle events

This is something that I think a lot of devs don't fully appreciate. A recent writeup on the inverted reactivity model of React: https://chrlschn.dev/blog/2025/01/the-inverted-reactivity-mo...

I'd like to take a cup of coffee, take out one of those books (not super interested in Oracle TBH but could be some other low level stuffs) and read it through.

OK I know reality is much less appealing than that. But I still prefer paper books than .CHM help files than really online documents.
It's always a good time to be an engineer. These public comps are more recruitment and training. It's not like new discoveries are made during these events. It's partly a party for the industry.

I think a few replies have missed a key issue: Valve's CS monetization is the worst in the industry.

Most current monetization for cosmetics allows you to both (1) grind for items without paying anything and (2) if you want to pay, show you exactly what you are paying for.

Even games that still use lootboxes (i.e. don't follow #2) allow you to grind for items.

CS is one of the very few (or only current) game where you can't get a cosmetic without paying (must purchase keys to open lootboxes) and you don't know what you are getting (lootboxes).

It's bad and there is no excuse.

The trading mechanic, which adds a real world value to these cosmetics, and encourages players to pay for lootboxes makes it worse.

People sometimes hate on popular games like Fortnite and COD, but they have way better/more fair monetization practices.
>Looking back on my childhood, I think the effect of internet porn far outweighed the effect of gambling-adjacent stuff like loot boxes.

I think that's more because people don't want to teach children about sex, while people do demonstrate what gambling is early on. Ones much more complex and if you're letting a kid find their own answers unguided, that can potentially be disasterous.

That's not even mentioning theneffect of instilling shame on your own biological body and treating parts of it as taboo. If parents refuse to talk about something, it can be taken as either a bad thing, a scary thing, or a complicated thing.
WEST vs EAST? Did both sides agree on the naming scheme or something?
I feel like under every news regarding Valve, Steam or their games people tend to find some crazy conspiracies on why Valve did that or didn't do this. When actual truth is that Valve is ~400 people company plus some contractor artists making items for CSGO / Dota / etc.

Valve is not 40,000+ company, not even 4,000+. 400 people. That's it.
I think that's a good thing, developers not allowed to get away with partial job.
