Seems like the news headlines should read "President makes a mistake that benefits crypto grifters, but luckily for the grifters the only blame seems to be attributed to the president because of a single tweet."

I imagine taking the inflation rate (that was growing exponentially) from nearly 300% yearly to less than 3% monthly in less than a year isn't likely to be wildly popular to all the non-crypto grifters.
If all that album did was introduce a bunch of c&c music factory fans to the B52s and juice the sales of criminal minded it would be worth the price of hearing the Losing My Religion Muzak at the dentists office.

Even for the "pass down information" kind, running the meeting like a reverse classroom is more efficient. Read the new content outside of the meeting, discuss/process/problem-solve/etc in the meeting.

My personal rule of thumb is, every single participant should have prepared for the meeting for at least the amount of time the meeting is booked for. If this isn't true, you have either an ineffective meeting or wrong/too many people in the room.
No need to apologize. I assure you I'm not trolling. Yeah I am talking in abstract terms because I don't really want to get into a debate on the topic. The reason is because any design style in this area is basically unprovable and leads to endless debates. There's no point.

I do have something that explains my pattern and serves as support for it. But it's no proof because such a thing isn't really provable. Anyway it's easier to let AI explain it. In the following conversation I basically ask chatGPT about this topic with very general questions while manipulating it as little as possible.

https://chatgpt.com/share/67b3ca4b-fc5c-8001-a072-342357b8a6...

chatGPT basically arrives at the same pattern I discovered. Where I cheated is when I started giving my own opinions on the several patterns chatGPT suggests and I hinted the LLM at the direction I wanted to go. Everything else is a very general question.

That being said, there are clearly other sets of general questions that can very well lead chatGPT to form alternate conclusions, but this one aligns with what I and many others have discovered.
That looks good (not actually cloned and tried it yet).

However the screenshots in the README show (for me anyway) as broken links, even though they work when clicked on. I can see you're linking to the images in the blobs. If it helps, for my own stuff in the README I link relative to the README file in the actual source. So for one of yours for example I'd use: ./ubiblio_menu.png

This also has the advantages of both being self-contained and also working locally (eg in the VS Code preview) before you've pushed the images.
Whoooo! This looks promising. Man, if this was around when I was in school hahahah at least I can now try to learn LLMs with it.
Be very careful about advocating for that. You could be the side that the military judges to be "traitors".
Did somebody train an LLM with a mixture of RFK Jr and schizophrenic thought disorder?
in my experience no publisher that's producing many hits will make their stuff drm free, and for good reason.

looking at the archive (https://archive.ph/zPBbZ), almost all of the publishers do not publish popular authors.

it's just too easy to share the books. you can get tens of thousands of books for what, a gigabyte? without drm that stuff will spread like wildfire, but drm can easily be broken by those who know what they're doing - but I guess for publishers, luckily the vast majority of the popular wouldn't bother to break it.

here's one moderately popular author's take:

I guess we'll see how long it takes here. So far I don't see massive general strikes anytime soon. Given how spread out the US is, you need to get a good chunk of the population to turn out and we're not close yet.
How about the other side of this -

There’s an argument to be made that if you’re not prepared to deal with all of that, don’t become popular - either online or in meatspace, because it will happen.
> Right. But ULAs have ridiculous routing rules

Could you elaborate? I’m able to run ULA-only just fine, with one line in my pf.conf to route 1:1 to my GUA prefix. The NAT is stateless.

Maybe you’re referring to the fact that typical OS’s will prefer to use IPv4 over a ULA if both are available? I’ve noticed that, and indeed it’s unfortunate.
Indeed .. and they're both US examples.

In my initial comment I was thinking of four main western countries (there are others), each with multiple court cases that hammered home the core human rights violations inherent in anti-miscegenation laws and forced, often deceptive, abortion policies.

Had the GP commenter here simply asked for an example or an expansion I'd have provided that .. but the "five examples" demand was just .. odd.

They've wandered off with no reply so I suspect that might have been the limit of their rhetoric .. such as it was.
What minefield? They can have enforceable non-competes for at least the next 4 years. After that, maybe not, but it's so easy to include a non-compete clause into a new employee's paperwork that there's no reason not to do it, for companies that suck (that is, more or less all of them).

Even if they don't intend to go through the trouble to enforce them, they have a chilling effect.
Let’s see what the revised fraud report discovers.
> PT_DENY_ATTACH seems like a feature specifically invented for the purpose of serving the latter

You're exactly right. It was literally invented by Apple for iTunes as part of its DRM solution back in the day.
I guess those smart, insightful people are staying on X because

- their targeting audience are on X

- they are rich and do not really care what the platform owner does

- they will be very happy to join the owner when offered such opportunities

For people who are the target audience of those people, I guess

- they voted for this, and they are happily watching the federal gov falling apart

- they convinced themselves that X is the place to grow / learn from smart and insightful people (I don't think one has to be on it for more than 10 min a day to grow & learn, unless one is a crypto trader)

- they convinced themselves that it is really nothing political about using X
That is unfortunate, and seems to be similar to ADA compliance, as far as what is truly compliant and what is not. It seems like it is up to the courts to decide (speaking as an American, I know GDPR is a European law). I try to do as much as possible to keep up to date with ADA compliance and best practices, but when it comes to tooling around scanning for non-compliance, there seems to be differences. I believe that showing that you made an effort to comply is usually enough to avoid a lawsuit, but it would be nice if things like this were spelled out more clearly for those that need to implement these features.

I have recently gone through a conversation with a client that has been told in NY state (in the US) that something similar to GDPR is coming for those that deal with PII. Both the client and the agency I work for have added various scripts to the website for dynamic forms, tracking (Google Analytics), and newsletter functionality. It's at a point where everything that is 3rd party has to be discovered first, then seeing if there is the ability to anonymize everything (either by default, or with a user consent dialog). Even with current laws, it seems intentional to keep things vague.
My Kindle was bricked by an Amazon OTA update. Checkmate, atheists.
I wonder why this doesn't happen with other devs who maintain widely used wares like Sindre Sorhus or even old timer like David DeSandro. If it does to them happen I wonder what they're doing that the mt32 pi dev isn't.
I dunno ... I don't get out much but this seems to be a 3 dimensional corner case or as one commenter here put it, the cause might be something else

Oh, do not for one second think that this behavior isn't intentional.

Elon knows it is BS. But that's not the point, the point is to create outrage, and legitimize it all to the MAGA crowd. It is all intentional misleading.

I use it a lot, even though it's supposed to be bad for me (astigmatism).

I am very used to it though, as I started out when computers just showed green (or amber) text on a black background. And those displays could also be tuned much better than current ones. I have an old serial terminal that I can set so low I can barely make out the text in a pitch-black room, and it can go so bright that it is readable in a sunlit room. A lot of flexibility was lost with the move to LCD (and even more with Amoled, which suffers from black smearing at low brightness, and usually really bad PWM).
'Honestly terrifying': Yosemite National Park is in chaos
Re dualism:

To paraphrase Chonsky (link below), the legacy of Descartes' observations for "mechanical philosophy" is profound: substance-dualism became untenable because no coherent idea of material can be formulated. Newton exorcised the machine (material), leaving the ghost intact to be curious about itself.

Today we study the organism called the body without need of a philosophical grounding in any reality. "mechanical philosophy" ended with Newton's work obviating any coherent notion of an "intelligible world". Faced with unreconcilable confusion about what constitutes reality, science quietly abandoned the idea and moved ahead with "intelligible theories about the world", which Chomsky regards as one of most significant shifts in science.

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=bWDJ2zFe4Pc

In various speeches and lectures on the history of science and linguistics, Chomsky comments on artificial intelligence, by referring to Alan Turing's seminal paper, in which Turing proposed the so-called "test." Chomsky refers to the paper's first paragraph where Turing concedes that the meaning of the word "intelligence" is so indistinct as to be left to be determined by Gallop. Turing punts on the entire question of the meaning of intelligence by suggesting an "imitation game."

Today's state of the art of machine intelligence has not advanced past Turing's proposal. Chomsky wonders if we may have to resign ourselves to the limit that it never will, in which light of reason we might embark on further study of ourselves, rather than contrive facsimiles and endure all the attendant hazards.

Suppose that now is the time for the part of the agenda that will upset the democrats--to keep those people formerly known as republicans from getting too antsy. Later on, we'll see the other half of that agenda.

At that time, when those formerly known as rebpulicans are angry about being misrepresented, are you going to tell them that they're not real republicans because they voted for a narcissist who was flattered into turning the wheel over to people with contradictory goals, and now "republican" means something that they have no control over? That's absurd. A party is a party insofar as it represents the will of its constituents, coups not withstanding.
You're assuming that a 2%er is a quality of the person, not a property of the relationship of two people. That just seems wrong.
It’s the tension between narrative storytelling and content creation. Also why so many indie developers end up making games that are a couple rooms with changing details (12 minutes, etc)!

> It does also say that many of the numbers without accurate death data aren't being used to pay out, which is why the SSA doesn't bother fixing them (which leads to the question of what did cause the payouts to stop?)

Mostly, they never started. Likely because the person died a long time ago, in many cases before the Death Master File existed and before claiming benefits, which is why as the OIG report notes, the vast majority of the numebrs in question have no records at all on the MBR, which contains everyone who has claimed beneffits administered by SSA since the 1970s.

In other cases, they started when the person was alive and eligible, and ended when social security got death information, which was recorded in the Master Beneficiary Record--where it needs to be to stop payment--but not in Numident. (All this is in the OIG report.)

> The reason is that even if SSA isn't paying out their death data is used by the rest of the US government to stop fraudulent payouts for benefits programmes after death

Like Social Security, other federal benefits programs do a lot more to verify that the person claiming information is eligible to receive benefits they are claiming then checking whether or not they are listed as dead in Social Security records, both initially and periodically. Social Security numident death information is a secondary check, not a single-source of truth. You want it right or both its primary and secondary uses, but its not the primary way that beneficiaries are validated as being both alive and who they claim to be.
Unfortunately your Kindle needs to be registered to do this, and it's often a phenomenal pain in the ass to get old Kindles to register, if it's possible at all. I've got two old Paperwhites and I can't get either of them to register despite trying for hours and hours with every troubleshooting step I've found.
Product Distribution Lessons I Learned the Hard Way
Honestly, it's a "know it when you see it" situation mostly, but there are some strong smells indicating there's a legacy project in the walls:

- none of the original authors are with the company anymore.

- it's written in a language/using a stack/using technology that is used absolutely nowhere else in the company anymore.

- it is big enough that migrating all of its functionality is a tremendously difficult undertaking, to the point where it's likely never going to get done, at least not in your lifetime (either in terms of your tenure at the company, or literally, before you die.)

Outdated architecture/code practices/patterns are a smaller smell, as is the lack of documentation/testing - but those can be present even in greenfield projects written by a big enough dipshit - and I say this having been that dipshit at several points in my career :)
Hollerith founded the Tabulating Machine Company, which became the Computing-Tabulating-Recording Company (CTR), which became International Business Machines Corporation (IBM). These are the same thing, admittedly adding other businesses along the way. (Hence, IBM includes the invention of the tabulating punch-card in its company history.) So, after 1924, it's IBM, but this didn't stop people from talking about Hollerith cards, even in the 1950s. Here, it was used to designate the pre-computer era use with punch-card appliances.
If you can make something small that generates 30k in MRR, you should definitely do that. I fear that you are being quite optimistic about the numbers here…
Yep - KFOG wisely noticed late May offered better atmospheric conditions for an over-th-bay fireworks show, and thus outdid July 4th's visibility most years.

The Bay-to-Breakers fun run takes advantage of the same span of especially sunny SF Bay weather – so for many years the one-two punch of Bay-to-Breakers one Sunday, then KFOG Kaboom the next Staurday made for a very special SF week in the 2nd half of May.
At least in the US, "impeachable offense" is whatever the legislature will vote 2-to-1 for (which was revealed during the first Trump impeachment, and underscored why the second was such a farce. If 2/3 of the senate wouldn't convict a president stabbing a class of orphans on the capital steps, it doesn't really matter if its "legally" impeachable). Dunno if its as loosely defined in Argentina.

Show HN: Klipy – AI GIFs, Clips, GIFs, Memes and Stickers API with Monetization
Hey HN,

Over the past two years, my co-founder and I have been building https://KLIPY.com — an API of 10m+ GIFs, AI GIFs, Clips, Stickers, and Memes, focused on efficiency and monetization.

Unlike GIPHY/Tenor, our goal was to create a cost-efficient infrastructure that allows platforms to integrate GIFs seamlessly while generating revenue for content creators and platforms - and keeping the API free forever, unlike GIPHY.

The process is straightforward:

* Platforms integrate our API and enable our Revenue API (optional)

* Ads are placed between content, ensuring high CTRs while maintaining a UX-friendly experience

* This unlocks new exclusive ad inventory for the market, allowing apps to generate more revenue than traditional ad placements

Currently, our infrastructure handles 4 billion requests per month (content API requests + revenue API requests to and from ad networks) while keeping server costs under $1500.

We've already integrated with several platforms, including Ridmik, Fleksy, iMe Messenger, and others. Additionally, we’re live on Slack, Canva, Figma, Integrately, and RapidAPI, with bigger names coming soon.

I'd be happy to provide a lifetime free API key to anyone interested in integrating our features, with or without the revenue API.

* API Docs: https://klipy.com/developers

* Demo Video: https://youtu.be/HOwNz_kXBSc

P.S. Our goal after next funding round is to develop an AI model that generates short and long-form media content for various purposes. If you’re interested in collaborating, let’s chat!

Would love to hear your thoughts and feedback!

I find 80 characters to be too short, and the resulting code after passing through a linter is significantly harder to parse due to the indentation being all over the place.
Thanks for creating and sharing this :) Commenters here can be pretty awful so I wanted to say that I really enjoy using the tools you have created.
I think the issue is a mix of "the boy who cried wolf" and really smart programmers with almost no real world experience who have been told to find "fraud". I am confident the government is rife with it. Issue is we have unleashed these young developers who I am sure are all excellent programmers who can code me under the table. Issue becomes developers with experience will question requirements, very good developers without experience will say "this is easy" and then just implement it. They were told to find fraud so we are presented with the classic "to a hammer, everything looks like a nail" .

On top of that, Musk is so eager to announce progress that he just repeats what he is told as he knows that these are very smart programmers.

I found myself working in an heavily regulated industry recently and I can tell you if you dropped a young really smart programmer into the code base they would find a million things that are inefficient and wrong. In reality they were carefully coded that way to support some byzantine law or legacy program or one off. An experienced dev will ask "anyone know why we do X in module Y"? and he will get an answer saying "yes, its because of...". The young hotshot dev just deletes and rewrites it or yells "fraud"

So Musk is shooting himself in the foot when if he just waited and verified he could release valid and I am sure damning evidence of fraud but currently he is just "crying wolf"
It's not the same effort to do something small and something big.

It may be at first, but if your goal is $30k MRR then at some point you could consider your task to be "done" (ideally, in reality its never like that). There are businesses that once set up it takes a lot less effort to keep afloat than to keep growing (and that's why they are attractive).

It is very, very hard to raise money for something small though. Maybe you can get a loan, but anything anywhere near the favorable terms that VCs give you is impossible. Games use publishers for equity funding and the terms are terrible.

So, if you are going for something big, you are better off going for pipe-dream-big. And know that once you start you will basically be on the growth-train until IPO/acquisition or exit with an empty handed. If you are going for something small, you will almost certainly have to bootstrap, which means it will take time.

Whatever it is you want to do though, just do it now. Time flies and it doesn't forgive.
Seems like a story without legs unless the opposition actually shows he benefited.

Also, it seems like the BBC totally massacred the definition of a rug pull.

>Some people online have accused Milei of what is known as a "rug pull" - where promoters of a cryptocurrency draw in buyers, only to stop trading activity and make off with the money

It doesn't have anything to do with a trading freeze, and I don't think that happened here.
Becoming popular isn’t generally something an open source developer chooses to do or not do.
They haven't changed. The point from the beginning is scams and greed.
It's a reasonable argument that, if you don't want to deal with some of the inevitable consequences of popularity, basically don't put yourself out in public at all. It's rarely an actual requirement for a lot of things. You can make videos for yourself without posting on YouTube for example (as most people who historically made hobby videos did).
> There are plenty of other places to discuss things considered "off-topic" for HN.

Once such place is the "Culture War" threads in https://www.themotte.org/ - but they do demand more level-headedness than what we typically see here on political submissions on HN (especially involving Trump or Musk).
I dont understand the downvotes. Treason is the wrong word though but this is a nitpick. The U.S. has betrayed NATO and it is the end of NATO. The Pax Americana is over.
