> You may absolutely have retained memories from that age, but it's just as likely that someone told you and your turned it into a memory.

I suppose this is possible, but I personally have many extremely detailed visual memories of places and events that happened well before I was five years old -- including memories that didn't involve anyone who could have reminded me of anything subsequently -- all of which are consistent directly with each other.

If I had any painting skills, I could paint you a picture of interior of the house I moved out of when I was 4, including furniture, appliances, artwork on the walls, even things like a green and yellow cardboard storage box that we had on a shelf in the living room.

When I encounter small bits of information from the same time and place, they always seem to corroborate my memories, e.g. finding notes my dad wrote, which I'd never read before, or finding a photo focusing on one object in a larger room.

This seems to indicate that on the whole, my memories are mostly accurate. Perhaps they were reinforced by conversations with family and varying other reminders, but I'm fairly certain that what was being reinforced were real memories in the first place.
Imagine what they'll achieve if they'll apply deepseek methods here with this insane compute
The sad thing is that even if this is undone, most companies won't bring their prices back down. CEOs have learned how to pretend that "stuff is just this more expensive for us to make" while raking in record profits.
Yeah, related to this is that for some subset of people who enjoy things like physical media - it could be as simple as nostalgia and them missing they used to do.

That’s also an element of why this is popular

Add all those together and they become, well, popular
Free trade is one of those aspects of the game stacked in favor of the rich. It allows US companies to bypass all the protections for American workers and have things built cheaply overseas using foreign labor. There’s a reason the American left opposed free trade until five minutes ago: https://reason.com/2016/03/10/bernie-sanders-free-trade-myth...
> When that inevitably fails, because no parent wants all of their money to be taken by the government

I only think it fails because Democrats have horrible messaging. Republicans branded it a "death tax", when I think it should be called the "aristocracy prevention tax".

Your average person has no idea how the estate tax works (i.e. they think it applies to them). In the late 1800s/early 1900s the UK implemented what is perhaps the largest nonviolent transfer of wealth by instituting large estate taxes on their aristocracy and landed gentry.
What you are missing is that they can't import the product for $500. They have to sell it to the "USA" for 1000 and pay 100 in tariffs. They can't "pocket" the profit in the USA. Look up https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transfer_pricing

To be fair, asking the question is a bit of a waste of time as well
VAT is what Americans call sales tax (yes I know it's slightly different, but not for the purposes of this discussion). Imported goods into the US are subject to sales tax too, if the sate where the buyer lives has sales tax. Quite amazing that people on HN are swallowing the disinformation on this.
IMO you've stumbled into one of the reasons Rust is amazing -- it can go to higher levels, for many good reasons. Whether you should is another question, and it will arguably never be as easy to write as python or javascript (to be fair it's also easy to write inconsistent code in those languages), but it can.

I wouldn't argue that Rust is as ergonomic as other languages, but it has enough pieces to build DSLs that make it look as ergonomic as other languages. An example of this is the front-end frameworks that have been spun in Rust, like Leptos[0].

Rust probably has no business being on the frontend, but the code snippets are convincing and look pretty reasonable. If the macro machinery and type stuff never blows up/forces you to touch internals, then does anyone care that it's a system language underneath?

What a great blog post. Hope you figure it out, Fly.io. "If you will it, it is no dream."
And here I am flinging hiccup and Reagent for years now without any major changes. Reagent has been around since 2013.
They even survived the transition to functional React components without major changes.
The hiccup I wrote 5 years ago is still perfectly fine.

The only issue we have is JS UI libraries we depend on who have a funny understanding of backwards compatibility.
Everything is near an "all time high." Microstrategy stock is hovering near an all-time-high, and they're just a company that buys up Bitcoin and wastes some of it. Meme coins are floating up to all-time-highs. Stop using asset prices to justify anything people are doing, they're fully decoupled from anything happening below.
Grok has an advantage in its access to Twitter data.

> ...when I could create a reactive external component that I can import into a .svelte template...That means you can write vitest tests against it, but get the benefits of reactivity. That is truly powerful and, AFAIK, unique in the frontend world.

Isn't this the same as Vue composables?

Composable: https://github.com/CharlieDigital/vue3-state-definemodel/blo...

Vue Component: https://github.com/CharlieDigital/vue3-state-definemodel/blo...

BTW, I agree it's a very good pattern in general; especially good if you end up reusing logic with different templates/UI.
> Who are you to feel bad about your situation?

Who am I? Who are any of us to complain and/or fix things? The answer is: we're the only people who can. Change has to start somewhere. The best thing for people who have it worse isn't to silently suffer, it's to help ourselves by dismantling the systems under which we both suffer. We have to take every opportunity to do that, and that means even the unglamorous ones.

there's no reason you couldn't do a clojure in rust

but the main implementation benefits from GC and making it easy to call host (java) methods. as far as i know, the core clojure data structures are kinda hard if you don't have a GC
We are at the stage where most creative experienced persons with at least a year or savings (of their expenses) should look to a self-bootstrapped AI-assisted entrepreneurship instead of a job. AI changes the game to enhance the chances of entrepreneurial success. Also, when you are working for yourself, it doesn't really feel like work.

Pretty sure the wind doesn't care about what country the plane is from.

Seems to me it was either unavoidable or Canadian air traffic control shouldn't have let them land in those conditions.

Nothing to do with Trump or the FAA, as much as people would like it to be.

I wish someone would build some sort of PAC that pushes politicians to fix issues both sides agree are issues. Keep them on actually fixing solvable things, with agreeable solutions. The pendulum swing is tiring. Some of it feels like contrarianism for the sake of it.
They couldn't update their camera driver for their flagship, not-cheap phone to make it work with a bumped kernel.

I'm sure they will ace this, though.

The NSA's mission is to spy on foreigners and not Americans. I believe it, because I've known people who work there and heard enough stories about the internal controls and how often people in one division don't know about relevant things at another division because of them.

If they did want to spy on you, however, that doesn't make a big difference because other countries from

The trouble however, is not hoovering up a lot of information, it is doing something effective with it. For every terrorist who acts on the sentiment, there must be millions of people in the Middle East who say "death to America."

The diplomatic and intelligence services in the US are notorious for their poor quality and groupthink. It doesn't help that the security clearance process makes it impossible to hire anybody interesting or who actually knows a foreign language.

China must collect a huge amount of information from Temu and TikTok about what kind of crap Americans want to buy and that's useful information. Hypothetically they might want to know what Americans think about Taiwan or Xinjiang but does it actually make a difference? Membership in the Chinese Communist Party has its own ideological filtering effect that will prevent them, as individuals, but especially as a group, seeing anything that they don't already want to see.
Those are actually difficult hires to make. Huge number of low-quality applicants, but the standards for park employees are actually quite high, and admin tries to hire for passion which helps with retention and sustaining their unique culture (imo park staff are by and large excellent folks and most have impressive backgrounds relative to their position.) The immediately tangible upshot to this approach is retention, lots of those "booth jockeys" return many years in a row, or grow into admin/ranger roles.

Staff morale and visitor experience will suffer if the careful selection process is eased, and retention woes will probably cause a measurable fiscal impact to operational budgets once the passion-hire cohort churns out.

Selecting for passion takes time. It's the same when you're hiring to build a company with an exceptional culture.
I hate it, and I'd consider this a crime akin to theft. It's literally taking advantage of people who don't have the faculty to defend themselves, and capitalising on their human weakness.
Before anyone jumps in to say that stress doesn't cause ulcers, only H. pylori does: stress can absolutely trigger gastritis, especially if you're predisposed for that, and chronic gastritis can very much cause ulcers :')

They achieved the same results for 1.25% of the computation cost... If they actually had that computation capacity, it would be game over with the AGI race by the same logic.

trump's logic is very simple:

2. make his voters happy - tariffs and immigration control

and there are indeed some 'well thought out' economic strategies behind tarrifs

I know it has nothing to do with being rich. I know middle class people do this in the US. He was asking how people could avoid it, the simplest way is to become a contractor/consultant/freelancer rather than a full time employee so *you can* restructure your tax.
True of the very rich, but not the average rich. Consider how a SWE may be “rich” compared to a barista. That SWE is probably earning $200k/yr and is paying that income via W2.
Broadcom getting involved with VMware did wonders for all VMware customers - I'm sure all current users of Intel products and services are also delighted in a similar manner! ;-)
ffmpeg, VLC and its associated projects are hosted in France. There aren't any US companies for the MAFIAA to shakedown, and if they tried to file for software patent infringement in France, the French courts would tell them to fuck off.

So they go after ffmpeg's US-based users/customers instead.
You're not going to run a SOTA LLM of this size off batteries (robotics), even in a car where the alternator is charging them, nor can you afford to rely on a high-speed internet connection being available 100% in a life or death (FSD) application.

I don't have so much faith in the future of current-architecure LLMs, but I do think that AGI will be needed for safe FSD and general-purpose robots that need to learn and operate in an uncontrolled environment such as a home.
>Even Vue sort of moved away and started looking like React.

Did it? Vue has composables that look kinda like react hooks syntaxically, but aren't the same thing at all, they are just better scoped mixins.
Businesses are constantly doing a price sensitivity analysis to see if they can raise prices and by how much. Economic factors like tariffs allow you to raise prices more than your usual price sensitivity would allow because you can blame it on factors out of your control.
You could get another LLM to read its response and summarize it for you. I think this is the idea behind LLM agents
Very different in my experience but implementation matters. I've been using mobx for years with great results, largely because I move all of the logic out of components into stores. I think that's the actual key, since most hooks-based and other solutions rely on a lot of component logic that becomes frail and error-prone. Instead, making the view layer only view vastly improves development complexity by making a layer responsible for the data that is separate from rendering.

My components do as little as possible other than render html and bind the occasional event handler to a store function. With this in place, development scales much more easily than layers of hooks.
Seniority from skill, most likely, talent wouldn't change over time
Interestingly, some do. The thought of making some money by buying a small amount of some high-growth stocks, with fractional investment being a thing for several years, energizes many small-time users of Robinhood and similar services. It's still a better gamble than buying lottery tickets, which many poor folks do a lot, sadly.

Poor people are people like us (or sometimes are us), some are quite prudent and would love to make an investment that pays, even if it's small.

You appear to appreciate the value of direct feedback. I hope you appreciate this direct feedback.

You could have made your point more effectively if you'd said something like "your math is correct, but it's important to keep in mind that the actual tariffs eliminate the entire current profit margin for almost every product in the category we are talking about."

Instead you began with a personal attack. It's hard for a discussion to recover from that.

Show HN: I Scraped 2,200 Software Engineering Jobs from Career Pages Using LLMs
Hi everyone,

I built GrepJob because I got frustrated with the user experience of LinkedIn/Indeed while looking for a new SWE job.

Specifically:
1) Not being able to trust the date posted of any job. The date shown on LinkedIn is often the date the job was reposted by the recruiter and 2) Being shown too many irrelevant jobs. For example, I get shown senior/staff level roles when I search for "Software Engineer II"

GrepJob solves 1) by populating the date_posted time directly from each company's ATS system And 2) by extracting seniority, specialty (frontend, backend, etc.), and tech stack from each job with LLMs

Please let me know if you have any feedback, thanks!
With a simple 500-line lib you can write Web Components just like React, here's an example: https://github.com/wisercoder/uibuilder/blob/master/WebCompo...
It's a really really well written article, I wish more people wrote like this, instead of lazy, tired discourses on frontend hell. I did not dive too deep in his examples on Svelte as I don't use it, but I understood the gist of it. And I agree with the conclusion: "...there is a tradeoff between doing things for the user, and giving the user agency". There was always something about a lot of developers where they treat the users of their code as incompetent
and unable to get anything done. So they do all sorts of things to make it idiot proof, but this ends up making everything more complex.

The take about AI is also interesting, I didn't think about that before. If AI is now able to generate a lot of code, maybe being able to quickly understand that code is more important than that code being clever.
Corruption aside, China is run by smart leaders who execute on a long-term plan, and are gradually extending their influence over the world. The US is doing the opposite.
It would be interesting to see a world where more media than just Nintendo videogames were sold as physical media cartridges like read-only SD cards.

My kids have these music players called Yoto players. They're extreme DRM, but still fun and really accessible for little kids to use. Content "comes" on these NFC cards about the size of a playing card. You stick the card in a slot on the top of the player, it plays the music cached from "the cloud". It would have been neat to have something about as durable as this but not an entirely closed single-vendor system.
I often read these threads on HN and they make me feel like that I am perhaps a horrible software engineer or just weird…

I _like_ building things with React.
Wait until you hear how many people pass away as a result of eating cheeseburgers! Only somewhat kidding here.

The number of people that die from heart disease and stroke and diabetes is far far greater than plane crashes or car crashes.

Metabolic syndrome is a large constellation of diseases and scientists have discovered that many of them are largely preventable through diet and lifestyle choices!
Overall yes, but they do present non trivial medical risks for some people.

Similarly, the risks for specific drivers in specific vehicles making specific trips isn’t the same as the risks for the average driver making an arbitrary trip.
This would be a huge improvement on some news sites which do little more than regurgitate controversial Tweets (Xeets?)
State management for smaller vanilla JS projects that works 9/10 times for me:

const state = new Proxy(
{},
{
set(target, property, value) {
target[property] = value;
renderUpdate();
return true;
},
}
);

I'm only 1/4(.0000000004) serious here. That said, I've been doing this for almost 30 years, I was a kid when I picked up Netscape, I have gone through every mainstream and many niche libraries/languages replacing libraries. Now, in my late 30s I finally can grow a moustache (a big achievement in my family gene pool) but the analysis paralysis is still making me anxious every time I pick up a new project.

- preact w. signals or Svelte are still my libraries of choice if I need to spike something, but that's partially because of signals and vite. The development experience is good, there isn't much magic you need to deal with on a daily basis.

- Web Components are great in many ways, but they don't solve the problems I usually have with bigger projects (scaling state, orchestration for the lack of a better phrase). Lit makes it a bit better though.

- JSX is actually not that bad, as long as you treat it as a DSL around functional composition. Native JSX + signals would probably make most of my node_modules redundant.

(please don't overthink this, I didn't)
Retention of agency carries a benefit you’re not calculating
Agreed, I don't even bother with Google anymore. The only thing I use Google for is for local results, e.g. finding a restaurant. It's useless for finding actual information on the web.
I wonder if people will attempt at jailbreaking this model to see if they can find evidence of federal data being used to train it.
I unfortunately learn best by book. I hunted for a React book, against the advice of the community, and found one that was current circa v18. It opens by saying the absolute standard for making React sites is create-react-app… which just got deprecated.

And any book older than that is useless due to class syntax or predating hooks. Just 3 years to turn a resource into a door stop.
I sincerely doubt your ability to use LLMs well.

Yes, it is a real concern, but its supremely trivial to solve for. Frameworks make this into chaos madness because frameworks have to solve for both the goal of state management in addition to their own divisible component concerns that come and go with user interactions.
'Sweeper' by Steve Bruce: A Review
"The rich" are really two separate groups. The majority of "the 1%" isn't billionaires, it's cardiologists etc. making mid six figures rather than nine, and those people do actually spend most of their income. They buy a big house and a new luxury car every two years and a boat and eat at fancy restaurants every night, and make enough to do that but not enough to do that and have much left over.

The people who don't are the billionaires or nearly billionaires, but they also don't pay the existing income tax because they have teams of tax lawyers and deploy international shenanigans. And then an "income tax" which they pay on $20,000 of declared income is not actually taxing them more than a consumption tax at the same nominal rate on all the cars and boats the billionaire buys the same as the cardiologist does.

~98% of the United States' natural gas imports come from Canada, as well as ~60% of our crude oil, which makes up ~10% of our natural gas demand and ~25% of our crude oil demand. In addition ~25% of our uranium imports come from Canada.

This isn't even getting into stuff like steel and aluminum, and other core manufacturing goods.

Good luck opting out of all that to avoid the tariffs.
I live in France, SMS is really big here. Not as much as it once was, but it is still one of the most popular way to send text messages, probably not the most popular anymore, but close.

Not necessarily, that advice usually assumes that you either are the subject expert or that your job is scoped and therefore benefits from being able to rush a job to maximize compensation

If you can bill by the hour, you benefit from the customer figuring it out on the go, which will take longer, but also be better fitted (If you can make it work)

If your job fits in "I'll make your X twice as good" or "I'll implement this standard" bill by the project, so you don't get punished for being more efficient; if it fits in "we'll solve your software problems", bill by the hour and you'll be rich, because they won't run out of problems to throw at you
