I don’t think that’s really the case anymore. The vast majority are on React, Vue, or Svelte (in order of my perception of their popularity). On the CSS side it seems like Tailwind and PostCSS has taken over. The heavier framework category is covered by Next.js. Other than Next, most of that popularity started solidifying in 2020. There are a bunch of newer frameworks like Astro and HTMX and so on, but it doesn’t seem like their adoption is eating into much of the bigger player’s “market.”

There’s still the problem of many library authors playing fast and loose with semver breaking changes and absolutely gigantic dependency trees that exacerbate the issue. That’s where most of my churn comes from, not new frameworks.
As another commenter already clarified, I meant CGNAT on the ISP side. I don't believe any ISP currently offers an equivalent firewall on their side.
Ask HN: Is anybody building an alternative transformer?
Curious if anybody out there is trying to build a new model/architecture that would succeed the transformer?

I geek out on this subject in my spare time. Curious if anybody else is doing so and if you're willing to share ideas?
sorry to contact you this way, but you mentioned frida and android emulator to use gmx freephone some time ago, could provide more details to this. Many thanks.
You write as if someone held a gun to your head and force you to sign up for Plaid. Plaid doesn't require anyone to use it.

Your bank is the entity you're ultimately upset with, don't malign a company that generated a _very good solution_ to a _huge problem_ and THEN worked with their industry peers to cajole these huge banks to let you have access to your data how you want to use it. Before Yodlee and Plaid came around there was a snowballs chance in hell I could ever hope to get at my banking transactions in an API and now I can, and in many cases I never have to give supply my banking credentials to anyone but my bank.
I am sympathetic to your struggles, but a small percentage of patients suffering from vaccine-related conditions should not be a reason to ban vaccines for the millions of others benefitting from their effects. (What we should be doing is studying why the vaccines may cause heart damage in rare cases and then finding ways to mitigate that.)

Turn off TPM in your BIOS and it will quite nagging you. Windows 11 won't install without TPM 2.0.
What incentive would they have to do that?
A few years ago I would have disagreed with this, but now you have things like the steam deck which are basically gaming consoles.

Gaming consoles that aren't locked down to play approved software. More and more people are finding freedom in PC gaming.

Then again. Monopolies aren't good things. A lot of non technical people don't want to even use a Steamdeck. If Microsoft leaves only Sony will make consoles.
Spreads on bid/ask used to literally be at least 25cents, they didn't even use decimals. Would you rather pay 1 guy in a funny jacket with a palm pilot in NY 25 penny or a bunch of computer nerds sniping each other 1 penny?

Let's say you buy $10k of some $50 stock today and decide to sell tomorrow.
In the old days you'd have paid say $10 to your broker to buy, and $10 again to sell. Your bid-ask spread in isolation of any price changes in the stock would be 25cents per share x ($10k / $50 = 200 shares) = another $50 in spread. So you're all-in transaction costs would have been $70.

Now you probably have a no-fee brokerage, and generally a penny spread.
So same formula is 1cent per share x (200 shares) = $2 in spread + $0 in fees. So you're all-in transaction costs would be $2.

$2 vs $70 on $10k round trip investment. 2bps vs 70bps.
There was unofficial Lapz app ( https://www.lapz.io ) on TestFlight but got taken down after complaint from F1: https://www.theverge.com/2024/11/20/24301420/apple-vision-pr...

I watched few races on it and it was pretty great. You logged in with your F1TV account and could set up streams around you plus there was 3D view of the track with current positions of cars on it, you could look at car and pinch and driver view opened in pop-up window attached to car model. Couple times I noticed a car stopped on track before it was shown on main broadcast.

Yes! My first "job" was a bunch of freelancing gigs I got on rentacoder.com. Mostly Delphi and Visual Basic applications. The productivity was insane.
Strongly disagree. Respectful discourse requires reciprocity and from Trump himself down to his supporters, that's deliberately absent in MAGA. The whole project is about dominating and putting down other people - and has been since day one - and only appealing to comity as a defensive or deflection tactic. With such a long track record of bad faith, it's foolish to engage with other postures than suspicion.

Happy memories. I discovered it around Delphi 2.0 when I was using Visual Objects in school. As soon as I starting playing with Delphi, it was an immediate realization, "Oh, this is what VO aspired to be"... It was such a great IDE and tool for developing small "event driven" apps back in the day.
This ought to be called the qwerty effect, for how the qwerty keyboard layout can't be usurped at this point. It was at the right place at the right time, even though arguably its main design choices are no longer relevant, and there are arguably better layouts like dvorak.

Python and React may similarly be enshrined for the future, for being at the right place at the right time.

English as a language might be another example.
There are only two countries where you are allowed to advertise prescription drugs.

The weird thing is I love Lazarus for the GUI but I'm too used to VS Code to deal with their source code editor. Coupled with the non-C-based language, I kind of feel like I couldn't write a complex program in it if I tried.

For example, if I wanted to display a .webp in a desktop GUI, I'm confident I could manage it in Python, Zig, C++, C#, and even Java although I don't have a lot of experience with it. With Pascal, I won't have my Python libraries, nor my out-of-the-box C interoperability. In fact, I don't think I've even learned how to use a library with Pascal.

I don't know if in Delphi the editor is better, or the documentation is more accessible. It feels like it has a lot of potential but barriers for entry make it not as interesting as just programming something in Python with Qt.
>Yeah, nobody should be forced to go to war in some rosy utopia, but how do you defend yourself in a war when nobody wants to fight?

Anyone able to explain the technical reason this doesn't exist yet? Maybe technically feasible but NBA thinks it would cannibalize tickets sales?

If it did (does?) exist it would be nice if it could be "all" courtside views (pick the one you want or switch between them as you're watching). And when I say all it doesn't have to be literally every seat, but there could be one at each baseline and then maybe one each side of the scorer's table and then 2 opposite those so 6 in total.
I know I didn’t make it easy to catch, but I think you may have misread me.

I wasn’t referring to “DEI” as in the corpo-state initiative but the concepts themselves as they’re received independent of how they’re packaged in the acronym; in a political context.

In this way, I think to call it “scapegoating” would do a disservice to a legitimate social conflict.

I agree with your final observation in general, but what’s your point?

Maybe I'm looking at it wrong but where is the transparency on which spending they have decided to cut and what exactly that spending was being used for?

Edit: That also doesn't seem to be the official website, which is doge.gov

The title of the website you linked is "THE DEPARTMENT OF GOVERNMENT EFFICIENCY COMMUNITY MEME PROJECT"

It has a section on buying/trading crypto, and the linked X account is @doge_eth_gov which has been suspended.
It explains the phenomena and the response but not the mechanism. Anyone know?
Or a company for developing software for microcomputers Microsoft?
I'd love to have those answers too but it seems like DOGE doesn't care about transparency as much as they claim to want that. Elon keeps touting open source and transparency but the transparency is only in the form of poorly researched, cherry picked tweets from him which are often false. I could actually get behind DOGE if they were properly publishing all the financials of the agencies that they're auditing and programs that they're cutting. Without that, it's completely unaccountable.
The only unrealistic part is where it happens in the distant future. 19 years since its release, we've made exceptional progress in making it reality.
Nah, this is an important story about how incompetent the developers are who have taken it upon themselves to dismantle the US federal government.

I was never a Borland guy because I didn’t know pascal or c++ when they were big. But I (believe) I’ve heard stories that Microsoft was especially aggressive about poaching their talent. Things like pulling up in a limo with not-insignificant amounts of actual cash to lure them away. At least I think it was Borland. All’s fair in love & war I suppose, but it does feel dirty, lol.

Anyway, it’s hard to execute when your best and brightest keep jumping ship to the competition.

Please let me know if it was not Borland, because this is a good anecdote.

You maybe meant "magnetic north", not "true north"?

Or if you meant what you wrote, then fairly safe to rule out magnetism from being involved! (I suspect it's not involved either way, but I don't know anything)

Yeah, it seems awesome to be able to track the entire game at once instead of just focusing on what’s in camera frame. The combination of both could be very engaging.
I'd assume they had to work with what was offered. As long as banks required usernames and passwords with no oauth possible, what's plaid to do? Their users wanted their service, but the banks used username password credentials.

In any case, "good bot" doesn't refer to best practices such as rejecting suppliers with antiquated auth and guiding users to others, it refers to not being intentionally malicious and acting as users' agents instead.
Oh god, this is like when that one type of executive insists that you give full database access and a firewall exception so that some SaaS report-builder tool will let them "generate insights" and "demonstrate value".
Yeah, Delphi (and for me now, Lazarus) still provides a substantially richer desktop experience than the web framework of the day. After having written some beautiful, rich apps with this tool, tweaking css makes me want to puke.

You're making the mistake of anthropomorphizing corporations. They're organizational structures, not moral beings. Were the humans punished? If not, that's a travesty. But it makes little sense to dismantle the corporations, which produce valuable goods and services.

Like the government, turn them over to different people.

That might work in southern latitudes where the seasonal change in solar irradiation isn't much different. In the North, like in Canada, there's just not enough solar in the winter. We really need a way to store excess solar from the summer into the winter. Like on the scale of a 500 gallon propane tank.
By “fixing something” I mean that it often need a redesign.

The console is inherently a GUI product. A lot of times what it needs to be “fixed” is for the design to be completely changed.
I don't know if it's the rose tinted glasses of looking into the past as I'm getting old but I really feel we missed something along the way on the transition between desktop to web and now mobile.

I remember how approachable Delphi and VB6 were for me as a 12-year-old who loved computers, everything was set up so you could just get things done. You didn't have to choose a UI library, a database layer, a build system with transpiling chains, or a particular language stack. You could focus solely on writing the code that solved your specific problem.

Now, when I try to teach my child how to code, I struggle to keep him interested because we spend so much time dealing with dependencies problems, boilerplate or having too many choices, none of which have anything to do with the actual goal of what we're trying to do.

I don't know, maybe Javascript or Python might take this place one day?

Show HN: Finite Capacity-Based System – A Finite Approach to Programming
The Finite Capacity-Based System is a mathematical framework built on axioms of strict finiteness: it assumes a universal limit (capacity) on set sizes and numeric precision, and even treats probability as a fundamental principle, rather than ever postulating actual infinities. Unlike traditional infinite-set mathematics (which relies on unbounded sets and the axiom of infinity), this system never steps beyond the finite realm – it can reproduce classical results (e.g. calculus limits or large combinatorial outcomes) through finite approximations, yet always remains within fixed finite bounds. By confining all structures to discrete, finite entities, it ensures every operation is rigorously computable and will terminate, so each computation stays exact and fully verifiable within bounded resources. Practically, aligning math with real hardware limits in this way avoids issues like rounding errors, overflows, or infinite loops, making programs based on these principles more robust, efficient, and easier to debug and verify.

I've got a Shaper that I use for some projects, and I went this way with spindles for it. I picked up three extras, and one spindle is permanently 1/4" downcut, one is 1/4" upcut, one is a 1/4" bowl bit, and the fourth is for whatever else I need, but I haven't taken the V-carve bit out of it yet. Extra bonus, the first three are all dialed in to the exact same depth, so I don't need to re-zero the Z on the tool.
Think about the dopamine release and persistence of it too!
It's called noise. It's clearly typewritten text scanned at black and white.
Sure, but there's a huge visceral difference between looking at a screen versus "being there" in what your brain interprets as, for example, a small black-box theater with a stage in the middle.
The problem with all anonymous communication systems is that they suffer from network effects even more than traditional communication systems. By having few people use it you immediately expose yourself by being part of a small group of people using it, becoming an easy target. Unfortunately the reality is that it’s often easier to hide as a needle in a haystack on something like WhatsApp than it is to use a theoretically anonymous communication system that lacks the “haystack” altogether
I test drove a 2023 Odyssey and Sienna and could barely tell them apart.
They can build androids with the strength/dexterity/agility equal to / surpassing that of any human. Sight, vision and vestibular (sense of balance) were of course solved last century. Not sure about tactile feedback and taste/smell.

The control systems/software is different problem, and then there is power (current gen lasts a few hours at most, depending on application this may be a problem or it may not be)
Actually, they will only delete humans, because the bots can already far outpace low quality content posted by humans.

I don’t think this has any truth outside of causing such argument. I am sure there is a paper on it that showed negligible difference for different layouts.

> He’s opened investigations into ABC, CBS, and NBC in a way that no previous FCC would ever do, and he’s even launched an investigation into NBC’s parent company, Comcast, over the existence of DEI policies.

Setting aside the matter on whether it's specifically the FCC that should be launching these investigations, it really doesn't follow that, just because they're media organizations, that therefore any investigation into them is a war on free speech. They are after all not the only ones under investigation over DEI, which is made legally risky due to the lauded Civil Rights Act.

If the Civil Rights Act forbidding media organizations from discriminating on race was not a war on free speech before, then why is it a war now?
Cool - thanks for giving it a shot, and I'm glad the basic tier is giving an accurate response with that query
Not a rug pull. Just use it. If you like it and the price is too high. Don't pay it. What is the problem? Are you afraid that you'll like the feature so much that you'll pay whatever the cost?
It was Borland management's incompetence that sent all the best talent to Microsoft.
This is obviously a pretty common belief, but I do think web dev gets held to a weird standard when framed as "the one with too much tech churn".

Just because someone solves a problem with a new library or framework does not mean they solved a problem for all of web development, and I think the current concentration of applications made with boring things sort of reflects that. [0]

> developers are rewriting their app in whatever the new framework is.

That is obviously an over-exaggeration. Most devs, most teams, most companies are not open to rewriting any application ONLY because it's a new framework. If they are, they probably have other priorities that point at X framework/library when rewrites do happen, because a rewrite is big enough already without having to also create the pattern/library code.

I will absolutely agree that we ignore the user more than we should. That should change. But I think people being excited about something on HN or some other metric of "a new framework every 6 months" isn't as causative as the usual hive mind would imply.

It would be interesting if Apple and Google and Samsung agreed to make dvorak (or a mutually created better mobile/swipe variant) the default mobile keyboard for all NEW accounts going forward. Unlike hardware, software keyboards could be swapped in a generation or two.
