I'm very much in favour of the postal service, but I don't think you're being fair in this comparison.

To operate a postal service, you need a lot of sorting offices and service points (postboxes, post offices, letterboxes). Unless you have this infrastructure, I'm envisioning a postal service with a maximum capacity of whatever all its employees can hold in their hands at one time.

And you need an addressing system and/or lots of people familiar with the local area, otherwise delivery is too unreliable for use.

And you need an internal police force to stop your own workforce stealing people's goods -- the employees "with a pulse" but not "a lot of education" are especially bad for doing that.

Meanwhile, in remote African villages, you buy things at the shop by sending a text message like "pay 32.10 to 67319" on your Nokia 3210 from 1999. It texts the vendor confirmation, it texts you back a receipt. The phones are battery powered, you charge them with a solar panel or a hand crank. The radio masts (and backend servers) that power this service are sometimes lacking electricity, but you just learn to go shopping when there's signal.

Certainly, it wouldn't be easy to get back to having Nokia 3210s if some kind of global destruction happened. But the same is true of pen and paper -- we need industrial levels of production for paper, ink, pens (or quills), and good storage, for paper-based record keeping. Before that, we used cuneiform on clay tablets... I think we can assume that we'll keep our ability to manufacture basic ICs and remember how to do radio communication, we won't ever have to revert back to pre-Marconi days.
This is seriously the thing I like the most about my 2017 and 2023 macbooks. The trackpad feels so good. Every other manufacturer that I have tried, and no it is not all of them but a lot, they all make my fingers feel bad after using them. I don't know if they are rougher or textured somehow? The only one that does make my finger pads feel sore is the macbook.
Show HN: We built an AI tool to crawl our SEO articles and find places to update
I got tired of spending hours and hours manually inspecting each of our SEO blog posts to find places that we needed to update. Fresh SEO now does it for me. This tool has already saved me dozens of hours, and I’ve only had it for two months.

You just provide Fresh SEO with a link to your sitemap. The tool then indexes your content and makes it searchable.

Fresh SEO has two modes:
1. Quick Search: Straightforward string matching. Great for “find and replace” situations like updating mentions of an old price or an old product name.
2. AI Search: More sophisticated. Give Fresh SEO a set of directions explaining what you need to update. Then, Fresh SEO analyzes each page, assigns it a score out of 100, and provides a rationale for the score. Great for situations that require more judgement about what needs to be updated. We’re using DeepSeek V3 to power the analysis.

Although the main niche for the product is SEO, we think it could also be useful for keeping documentation up-to-date, which may be more relevant for the HN crowd.

We would love to hear what you think!
I still hold to a theory that Satoshi Nakamoto is a brilliant North Korean engineer. The ability to steal Bitcoin with no consequence is an extremely powerful vehicle for a sanctioned country. Yes I get it's not likely but it would be so much more fun if it was true.

There's a lot of talk about drugs and such, but just being able a tool for avoiding sanctions seems to be a bigger one that could be a reason to delegitamize it to drive the value to zero.
Revolut OTOH is a bank https://www.revolut.com/
Revolut (the banking service) and Revolt are both British I believe...

Seeing as Revolut has been around for a number of years, as a British person I wouldn't have chosen a name so close to Revolut (for any product).

When the US annexes or gains new territory it generally doesn't give them federal representation for a while.

Alaska was acquired in 1884, but didn't get "statehood" until 1959. Hawaii was annexed in 1900, but didn't get "statehood" until 1959. Puerto Rico was acquired in 1898, but still doesn't have "statehood."

If Canada is annexed by the US there is a good chance I will be dead of old age before it gets a vote in US elections.
If you get enough on them that you could probably prosecute them successfully, then you have enough on them to try to turn them. And if they're the only one at that level that you have enough on, rather than make one prosecution, it may be better to turn them.
I have seen it with my own parents and my wife's parents first hand. Frankly, I think the lack of social interaction is a big part of it.

When they're working, they're regularly talking to people outside their comfort zone about potentially challenging questions. That gets largely shutdown once you retire.

Both my parents were in a huge rush to retire early, and now they just sit at home and scroll Facebook. I don't see the appeal.

That person speaks about the money not taxed being used for taxable economic activity on the same year, as opposed to that same money being spent on government programs, that generate less taxable revenue (e.g. because while paying contractors will generate taxable revenue, hiring a public servant to do the same job won't).

Your reasoning is that the money spent by private people can also be investment, which will increase future gdp growth. However, you don't explain why government spending couldn't increase future gdp growth. Obvious counter-examples being money spent in schools, public research programs, etc.
It’s difficult to argue that a model is truly “open” if the creator won’t even tell you what they trained it on. Even as companies like Meta argue that training on copyrighted material is OK, they still don’t want to openly admit that that’s what they did - and providing their training data, which would likely be a giant list of books from LibGen, would give the game away.

I’ve been experimenting with Iroh over the past month. It’s been such a pleasant experience. Previously, I created a p2p connection with webrtc and had to create a layer on top of that to use request/response style communication between nodes. I can throw that all away with Iroh and focus on the product. It’s a relief.
If your time is spent in higher productivity work, wouldn't that - irrespective of age - leave you feeling more exhausted?

My phone is now full of Notes, Alarms, and timers. I can barely leave the house to run an errand without writing down what I need to do.

As far as actually improving memory, I try to expose my mind to as much raw material as I can. The mind is a muscle, it has to be exercised, and as you get old you need to focus on its core strength rather than physique and raw strength.

Rehearsal and repetition. Read constantly, get out in the environment and really try to observe all the things that are going on. Write down all the things you want to do this year, and when you’ve done them, write that down, too. Every so often, review the list. It will prompt your recall to a wonderful degree.

> I think that majority prefer "algorithms" to serve them information

This possibility was the theme of the (most?) recent video essay on the YouTube Technology Connections channel:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QEJpZjg8GuA

There's definitely something to the appeal of algorithmic feeds, I suspect there's a fundamental neurological mechanism* in play which encourages us to scan somewhere for novel appearances / developments, same as seeing what's in the garden or on the market or who is present at the oasis etc etc.

But there's probably more to be said for consciously directing attention.

(*There's a certain d-word that probably has a genuine neurochemical meaning when not laden by a lot of popular baggage as it's entered colloquial use that I am intentionally not using because at this point I'd suspect it encourages misunderstanding more than helps, but I'm willing to believe it's related.)

I know that the price of a Tesla vehicle has gone down, but I'm not looking to sell my car. It has no reliability issues. Not once have I had to repair anything. The battery is performing great. Why would I sell it? I understand that five years from now, the battery may not be as good as it is today. But if you own, say, a BMW—the holy grail of car engineering—good luck keeping it after the warranty expires.

My other Tesla is on lease, so I couldn't care less about the price drops.

If I was a copy editor and read the draft title "Scientists crack how acetylsalicylic acid might stop cancers from spreading" I would stop the author right there.
You write “You can give these people houses but without treatment they will still be begging on the street.”

Your choice of words makes me wonder whether you would agree that an addict who sleeps in an apartment is better off than an addict who freezes their ass off in an alley at night.

Maybe solving for housing first is a way to eliminate some of the suffering in the world. By demanding that their life “is in order” before providing housing, I think we are demanding the impossible from someone who clearly is not capable of making perfect choices.
China’s automakers are a “slowly, then suddenly” story.

Geely bought 20% of the company that makes London’s cabs in 2006, then all of Volvo in 2009, the. A controlling interest in Lotus in 2017.

They’ve used increasing scale to create shared platforms across brands (including new brands like Polestar).

It’s really a classic well-executed capitalist play of rolling up smaller companies into larger enterprises with greater scale economies and deeper expertise and vertical integration.

It’s great to see, and gives me in the sometimes-dubious capitalist claim that incumbents at a sufficient level of complacency get eaten.

Yes they do audits all the time. They outsource them to one of the big accounting/audit firms though.
Here are the things that TF does that you are probably not going to get around to in a comprehensive way-

- State tracking, especially all of the tedious per cloud resource details

- Parallelism- TF defaults to 10 threads at a time. You won't notice this when you write a demo to deploy one thing, but it really matters as you accrete more things.

- Dependency tracking- hand in hand with the parallelism, but this is what makes it possible. It is tedious, resource by resource blood sweat and tears stuff, and enabled by the inexpressive nature of HCL

Plus, you know, all of the work that has already done by other people to wrap a million quirky APIs in a uniform way.
I can definitely say there is a difference between 7-star and 6-star movies on IMDb. A 7-star movie on IMDb is worth watching most of the time, while a 6-star movie is a 50/50 chance. A 5-star and less movie is a hard pass.
Same thing should be asked about the whole American tech sector since the late 90s, the only difference being the USA had VCs throwing gobs of money for tech companies to do price dumping and capture market share while China has the State doing similarly.

Now that General Motors has shut down Holden and sold off Opel and Vauxhall to Stellantis, Ford is the only US car manufacturer that sells vehicles in significant numbers outside the Americas, and it does this by having completely different vehicle ranges on other continents. (Jeep also sells outside the Americas, but exclusively to the 'Gee, I wish I were American' crowd.)

I don't trust China to produce good-quality cars at the moment (although I expect I'll have eaten my words in ten years' time), but if most of the world gets on fine without American cars, I'm sure the Canadians will too.
Finnish mental health legislation takes a medical approach to compulsory measures, emphasizing the need for treatment of psychiatric patients over civil liberties concerns... Finland has the highest rates of detention per 100 000 inhabitants, about 214 compared with 93 in the UK and 11 in Italy.

If at the end of the 3-month period it is considered likely that detention criteria are still fulfilled, new recommendations MII and MIII are filed and the renewed detention is then valid for 6 months. However, this second period of detention has to be immediately confirmed by a local administrative court.

That's one part of the solution; whether it works is left as an exercise to the reader ..

I hung out with a friend recently I had not seen in close to a decade. He was at one time my closest friend and seeing him was kind of uncomfortable and enlightening.

> If you understand "prediction" to mean "any bullshit made up by anyone" then yes.

I don't have to go that far, really! The IPCC models are systematically observed to be optimistic. 4 degrees is not particularly pessimistic.

> That's societal collapse. That's really really bad. But you were talking about species level collapse.

Even nitpicking here doesn't work. If you lose 90% of your population, as a species, it's collapsing.

I understand the point you are trying to make: "it's not clear that the humans species will disappear, just most humans". And I'm not saying it's clear. I'm saying it is a risk. Because we are not wild animals. Most humans, if you don't give them prepared food in a plastic bag, can't survive. And we're talking about surviving in a much harder world (4 degrees means that growing crop is harder in many ways).

But again it is a moot point. What's the point of going around saying "Guys don't be scared, we won't disappear as a species. Most of us here will die, still, but that's not as bad".

Now, let me address your nitpick: We as a society are on the verge of collapsing, and we as a species as well. With a non-zero risk that the entire species will go extinct.

i always evaluate TS, the see the enterprisey crap it is and just keep ssh without being brain dead about unix auth and user management.

honestly, not sure what's all the hype. ssh under wg with sane user management and key distribution cover 110% of the TS use cases. and thebonly difficult part is the key distribution but that should be difficult by design otherwise you're doingnit wrong anyway. you can even resuse the ssh keys for the wg tunnel if you're smart about it.
You are right. But, it shares my gussed city name, which most of the time is very accurate.

Then it says we throw away the IP and gussed city name, which is correct. But they have shared the city name with Microsoft.

Yeah HTML5 + CSS3 were not a thing yet. They were one of the last missing pieces to the puzzle of solving desktop publishing. I think after all these things (rss, usenet, irc, html5, css3, etc...) the only thing left was search. I don't think a user friendly solution for search ever came along. The original algorithm was good enough, and if google wanted to be good at search I think they could have combatted set spam. The problem for search was always money.

> My short term memory is falling off a cliff

Are you sure? I thought this was happening to me too, and then I realized when looking back 10 years ago that I have way more responsibilities now both in and out of work: I am not only getting more done at work, but also for more people. I am now picking and choosing which meetings to even hold, much less attend, because I have a higher throughput. My children's needs are much more complicated now than when they were younger. I have a side business.

I can't fathom how I would have even gotten this all done when I was younger simply due to how much leisure time I spent, much less kept all of this in short term memory back then.

My experience has been the opposite: I have to restart headscale at night because a significant %age of the time when I do, the tailnet goes down. I'd say maybe 30% of the time, maybe more. I'm talking about when I update ACLs and OS updates. I run a single instance, and I will say it's been reliable over ~2 years. For the record, I just rebooted that node for OS updates and the tailnet stayed up.

I think it has more to do with getting desensitized to things the more you're exposed to them. With age you get more and more exposure to everything emotional and lose the strong reactions.

Add to that some frustration from not being able to keep up with things, health issues, no one "young" having time to hang out and your friends dying all the time and I'd be grumpy too. You were once a stallion taking care of everyone and now you worry about falling in the shower because you occasionally lose balance for whatever reason. And you know it'll hurt like a bitch, you'll break something and it won't heal for a year. It's quite humiliating.

French land army is 77k total, with maybe 30k actually combat-capable — the rest are admin, logistics, and training. Add 9k Foreign Legion, but only a fraction of that is high-intensity capable.

With rotations, France can probably field about 15k troops on an actual frontline — and after that, it’s draft time.

For comparison:

* Russian armed forces: 1.1 million.
* 500k deployed in Ukraine.
* ~300k on the active frontline right now.

In terms of real land warfare capacity, France is in the same weight class as Belarus or Romania — and about 20 times behind Russia.

Even if you argue technical edge (better equipment per soldier), France has zero industrial mobilization capacity and no modern large-scale combat experience.
There’s always been a streak of self-loathing and nihilism in the US. Some kind of imposter syndrome writ large and handled with fake arrogance and real terror.
