According to the Kremlin, this means Russia dictating security policy to a population double its own. You may choose to believe that you can count on one hand the number of countries in the world with genuine sovereignty, but I assure you the citizens of the other countries will beg to differ.

Also it's not clear what "Even Donald Trump now admits..."is intended to mean here. Donald Trump has always repeated Kremlin talking points so I'm not sure why anyone would think of this as novel.
That's a proposal. Some of the proposals are intentional provocations to make the news in other states.
It was the other way around. People who are being treated like adults are acting like scared children.
> I may be old fashioned, but it actually does matter who is right. Because reality is a thing.

Is that a position you hold consistently? Is there anything you believe that you wouldn’t be swayed on when presented evidence to the contrary of your belief?

I ask, because there is an awful lot of mainstream Republican and (here’s the controversial bit) Democrat thought that simply has no basis in reality.
>For economics (both sides) healthcare, labour, "defense", energy

Those are arguably closer to "economic" than "social". Energy is plainly economic. Even healthcare and labor at the end of the day, boil down to dollars and cents (ie. how much people are paying for healthcare and how much they earn).

>speech

Having the strongest free speech protections in the world is "far right" now?

>religion

The Republicans might be "far right" on religion, but I don't see how the Democrats are. They can certainly be more secular (think the CCP), but at least they're not obviously religious. Compare this to the UK and Denmark which have state regions, and the christian democratic union in Germany.

>basic human rights

Clarify. "basic human rights" has been muddled by the left to include mean stuff like "healthcare", as well as the right to mean "right of babies not not get aborted" and "kids not being groomed".
I'm more skeptical of that statement - sure, I think some are aware.

Some are just blind partisans, otherwise those places wouldn't have been voting for team red for the last 35 years or so.

There is also the paradox of the low information voter too, which seemed to have broken for Trump 2:1 - that does concern me some.

Trump also has a huge benefit with low information voters, he spews noise all the time which the news media covers with baited breath.

I call it the "Trump says alot of things" problem - it allowed people to paint whatever they wanted him to be onto him by essentially cherry picking the various things he's said to make up their own collage view of whatever they wanted him to be.
Just do what everyone is doing today and use those AI tools for cheating. There’s a whole industry of invisible and hard to detect leetcode AI cheating tools.

Glad they exist and I fully support all candidates using them aggressively.
The biggest win the Republicans and billionaire class ever had was convincing the American public that left == liberal. It's not. Blue hair, trans flag, black lives matter, pro-palestine, etcetera; these are socially liberal stances. "Left" doesn't mean any of these things for the rest of the world in a conventional sense. Left means unions, workers rights, socialism or sydicalism; generally, power to the workers/99%/people rather than the capatilists/monarchists/regime.

Americans should continue to conflate socially liberal and economically left-wing at their own peril.
That data is outdated. That support has eroded since then, and will continue to erode now that Trump has stopped equivocating (lying) about his position on Ukraine.

Hate to break it to you, but people in the GOP will support anything Trump tells them to. The right wing political ecosystem is a closed system and it’s driven from the top down, and they’ll believe anything they’re told, so long as the entire ecosystem is reinforcing it. They spent 60 years building this system; it works really well now. And it’s the reason the country is now being dismantled, and the reason there’s nothing anyone can do about it. This system was the cracks in the foundation and Trump was the nitroglycerin.

There is nothing like this on the Democratic side of the fence. There’s no centralization of opinion, and there’s no media ecosystem whatsoever. The so-called “mainstream media” is now all owned by right-wing or at best center-right billionaires, so Democrats can’t actually push a message even if they could get it together, because they don’t have any microphones.

There were attempts at a Democratic media ecosystem, all of them sabotaged by centrists who didn’t want progressives to gain power. Because “better things aren’t possible” wasn’t a winning message and people on both sides of the political fence generally prefer progressive policies (until you associated them with the Democrats, then GOP support plunges.) But it would threaten people like Nancy Pelosi whose power and personal fortune derive from doing massive favors for defense contractors.

I don’t understand, why does the government of US has to give support for privately manufactured weapons. The company that sells the weapons should do that right?

Also what does US gain if all countries are using f16?
It's the Internet.
>> I view it as US got strong by being late to WWII.

This is the wrong view. The US got strong because it was able to convert its considerable industrial might to wartime footing within a very short timespan (which was frankly an incredible undertaking), and also because its geographic isolation allowed it to focus almost fully on offense.
Nowadays, I mostly consume news via HN - and much less than I used to. When I come across something relevant - which rarely happens - I post it to my aggregator[0] where I try to make sense of the news. It’s like a draft of contemporary History.

This is ultimately what some of the risk comes down to: you invest time(a decade is a long time!) into creating meaningful relationships at work and one day you come in to have your key card de-activated and some corporate speak as to why. There are certainly people working on truly meaningful projects out there, with teams they trust and adore...but for most of the workforce, even in tech, its just work and any fun had at work is a great cherry on top.
Underrated. And magnificent.
Show HN: Evolving Agents Framework
Hey HN,

I've been working on an open-source framework for creating AI agents that evolve, communicate, and collaborate to solve complex tasks. The Evolving Agents Framework allows agents to:

Reuse, evolve, or create new agents dynamically based on semantic similarity
Communicate and delegate tasks to other specialized agents
Continuously improve by learning from past executions
Define workflows in YAML, making it easy to orchestrate agent interactions
Search for relevant tools and agents using OpenAI embeddings
Support multiple AI frameworks (BeeAI, etc.)
Current Status & Roadmap
This is still a draft and a proof of concept (POC). Right now, I’m focused on validating it in real-world scenarios to refine and improve it.

Next week, I'm adding a new feature to make it useful for distributed multi-agent systems. This will allow agents to work across different environments, improving scalability and coordination.

Why?
Most agent-based AI frameworks today require manual orchestration. This project takes a different approach by allowing agents to decide and adapt based on the task at hand. Instead of always creating new agents, it determines if existing ones can be reused or evolved.

Example Use Case:
Let’s say you need an invoice analysis agent. Instead of manually configuring one, our framework:
Checks if a similar agent exists (e.g., a document analyzer)
Decides whether to reuse, evolve, or create a new agent
Runs the best agent and returns the extracted information

Here's a simple example in Python:

import asyncio
from evolving_agents.smart_library.smart_library import SmartLibrary
from evolving_agents.core.llm_service import LLMService
from evolving_agents.core.system_agent import SystemAgent

async def main():
library = SmartLibrary("agent_library.json")
llm = LLMService(provider="openai", model="gpt-4o")
system = SystemAgent(library, llm)

result = await system.decide_and_act(
request="I need an agent that can analyze invoices and extract the total amount",
domain="document_processing",
record_type="AGENT"
)

print(f"Decision: {result['action']}") # 'reuse', 'evolve', or 'create'
print(f"Agent: {result['record']['name']}")

if __name__ == "__main__":
asyncio.run(main())

Next Steps
Validating in real-world use cases and improving agent evolution strategies
Adding distributed multi-agent support for better scalability
Full integration with BeeAI Agent Communication Protocol (ACP)
Better visualization tools for debugging
Would love feedback from the HN community! What features would you like to see?

That's what the "would be" indicates directly in front of the part you quoted. And in reference to your comment below, I am definitely not referencing Obama, that doesn't even make sense because he did not dismantle American Empire in his two terms, in addition to not really being a leftist at all.
Since when is defending freedom of speech a right wing issue?
Yeah this turning of F16 support is really going to sell them.
Unless I'm missing something, your data you've voted seems to be pre-acquisition.

Also, by all accounts their revenue has dropped so much they're having issues even covering the loan payments, much less having enough for any semblance of profit.

So far sadly it seems to be in deep shit. Worst i can remember and keeps getting worse. The top point in my perception was reached in late 2022 and it keeps getting worse and worse ever since.

Thank you vxfemboy, you're doing the lord's work
I definitely feel that first part. I landed in a nice company in SF about 8 years ago and am still here. The culture has changed a lot but I often find myself doubting whether I could repeat the whole thing or if I got lucky. (The work is fine, and the company is one of the good ones I feel, so no real qualms there).
Agreed, but then you have the problem of asserting that the person really wrote it.

Nevertheless, every take home I accept I assume the default action of the receiver is to forget the effort and time that went into in, rejecting with no feedback. Horrible, but based on reality.

It is what it is, but I'm on a mission (getting the job) and unfortunately I do not hold all the cards.

If only there was a way to prove one's worth without having to spin plates while reciting 1000 digits of Pi EVERY TIME.
The US is the only country to ever invoke NATO article 5. When the US did, militaries from all countries you listed came and fought the war in a far away land for roughly nothing at all. I can see where you're coming from with all your points, but I think they're very shortsighted. The money the US pours into NATO is minuscule compared to the income it receives from the petrodollar system. Already today we're seeing the nuclear weapons program discussion restart in many countries in Europe. The end result is a US that spends less on other countries, yes, but also a US that receives an order of magnitude less income from those countries than it previously did. All things considered, it will be a US with both less income and less influence.
Me too - but the ability to transfer via the admin portal is down.

According to their status page it's:

"Service are back to normal to the majority of customers we continue to work so there is no impact for any customers"

I beg to differ.
>I always thought that the American Empire would be dismantled when it elected a leftist steeped in anti-imperialist ideology who wanted to better the world.

Most leftist political parties in Scandinavia and the Baltics manages to be be both pro-Palestine, pro-NATO, and pro-Ukraine. They don't seen any contradiction because there aren't any.

Why do some American leftists follow this 3rd worldist neo-Maoist thinking that Western civilization needs to burn down before you can get free healthcare and free college?
The US has always been a plutocracy with democratic trimmings. Exactly like ancient Rome.

The difference now is that the plutocrats are high on their own supply.

There used to be an understanding that if they didn't give something back they'd end up hanging from a lamp post.

Now they've decided the little people and their silly little planet are disposable, and AI, magic robots, and a cult of narcissism will replace them.

Absolutely lunacy, with consequences as expected.
feel sad for the guy that the attention economy on politically induced steroids (aka news) forces him into „hiding“. Kudos though for the self awareness.

I as a former progressive that worked in and with publishing houses had the exact opposite experience:

Although I was on their political side, all the news just became boring. Once you‘ve been part of that media-culture and you know your ilk and how little thought-diversity exists, you already know where a news item will go before you‘ve read it.

Since he‘s already in Switzerland he might better subscribe to the great https://weltwoche.ch/ – one will probably respond with „those are putin trolls“ to which i‘d respond „he doesn’t seem to have a general issue with subscribing to govt-aligned press“ (Le monde diplomatique, Bellingcat).

there are no objective news, people always have opinions (and those without have less reason to write about it) and the toolset to make them look objective is excessive. And thus enticing.

If you’re not willing to engage (at least from time to time) with the opposing view you‘ve risk cornering yourself like the author did.
EU is being threatened with tariffs because we’re not buying „enough” things from the US, including among others arms. The „suggestion” has always been to spend that money in the USA.
That's not my premise. Ukraine isn't freeloading, we voted to give them money because we understand they are the frontline of defense against Russian aggression -- they are paying in blood.

What I'm more concerned about is your hypocrisy as a fellow citizen, where you seem to believe you are fiercely independent (and therefore shouldn't be expected to pay into the system) but conveniently ignore all the ways it benefits you and the comforts it brings.

[Removed] is when Reddit admins remove something . [Deleted] is when the op of the comment/thread deletes it themselves or mods of the subreddit delete your posts. Instabans are usually fingerprinted or ip based. That means you got banned for ban evasion. From the looks of it you don’t have a problem with the platform you have a problem with subreddits were no one seems to be interested in your opinions or finds them offensive. Maybe use ones that are more suited to your „content“.
Its stock has done pretty well the past couple of years. (And it's a pretty good dividend stock as well.)
Yep.

And I slightly misspoke. I said it was only supported by Chrome. More accurately, it is supported by Chrome and some Chromium based browsers.
Accepting an epoch timestamp rather than 3339 like the rest of the codebase is the most recent example. The API standardized on one timestamp and I had an endpoint expecting epoch, it was smart enough to infer the rest of the APIs were 3339 and go change the epoch timestamp accepting backend route including writing a database migration and fixing tests. I haven’t pushed the fix yet

So think about the reasoning there. It read the API docs that said all the timestamps were 3339, it ran a bunch of working 3339 timestamps and was getting them back from most of the APIs, so it decided this was a standard, read the code on the backend and understood this endpoint was different, and decided on the right fix and implemented it. Didn’t need to ask me for help. That is pretty impressive if you’ve been using copilot.
Alternatively they could have went with not 5 generation, but still extremely good Gripen.

It's electronic warfare capabilities have reportedly surprised Nato pilots in exercises before.
Lots of people deleted their posts and accounts because of Reddit's decisions to kill their third party app ecosystem with API fees and selling of data.

Congratulations on waking up from your coma or escaping from underneath the rock or whatever other circumstance lead to you missing large events from the past few years.
The majority of voting Americans live in cities and have jobs, so I don't think that's right.
Simply saying that it's obviously true is not a valid defence.

So according to your superior reasoning of stock-to-flow, if someone owned all the food in the world, with no means of further production, food would be worthless?

If not, how is food (commodity with large demand, driven by need to nourish ourselves) different economically to bitcoin (a commodity with large demand driven by need to store value)?

If we're talking about removing one advertising platform, there is plenty of other stuff to spend money on. Even if the totals go down, I don't expect the average bystander to take a notable hit.
Democrats have a real problem with saying true but demeaning things that you have to discuss when coming up with strategy, out loud in public.

Hillary’s “deplorables” thing was maybe the most prominent example. Her point was that democrats who think that all republicans are committed to evil positions we can’t compromise with or entertain isn’t correct! Only about a third of them are, according to the data. The rest could maybe be reached or worked-with!

This is true shit you say in blunt terms in a strategy meeting or nerdy discussion groups, not in public, because poli sci is just full of demeaning stuff about voters, because they are stupid and often evil and if you study democracy soberly that’s what you’ll find, and you have to grapple with it to act effectively, but you don’t say it in public because most voters also don’t know that stuff because they’re not poli sci nerds. She, and/or her speech writers, had been around strategists and wonks too much.

[edit] on the other hand, one wonders how much this really matters when Trump wins while saying worse things about all kinds of folks. The way the media approach and characterize and amplify (or don’t) the messages may matter more than what’s actually said.
I get that perhaps you were using the proverbial "I" in your last sentence as an example of something everyone should be willing to do in/for their career, but does someone of your stature even need a real interview, much less a LC test, to obtain a top job? It's kind of funny imagining a young tech bro interviewing you, tbh.
> The completion seems good to me. In fact suggesting "speed" as a parameter seems unexpectedly good rather than nonsensical.

I can't see any way the "speed" could ever be the next item in the series "velocity, acceleration, jerk, snap", could you explain how it could be? It's an extremely common sequence so it should be something a LLM can get right easily. Even the auto complete in a Google search gives the correct answer.

> Foes anyone really expect better than what your images show which in my opinion is pretty damn good. Do you really expect to write a program just mindlessly hitting tab all day long?

The other examples (and most of my other tests) show variables and types being invented that don't exist anywhere in the code base, how is that good? In both of these cases the LLM is strictly worse than my regular auto-complete that gives the correct result. I fail to see how a downgrade from that can be considered good.
I have done probably 500 to 1000 tech screens for big tech companies (as the interviewer) and this is completely true.

I have interviewed many people employed in tech as programmers for their entire career and they can't code. I don't meen leetcode, I mean they get confused trying to write brute force substring search. The nested for loop seems to be too complex for them to keep in their head all at once.

I have had numerous people cry. Again this was a screen, not leetcode. I'm asking them to check if text has mismatched parens, or find a substring. Things you do for homework in your 2nd programming class freshman year. Things every competent programmer can do while chitchatting about the job.

I would estimate that more than 10% of screens are like this, again these are employed people in the industry for years, sometimes tens of years.

Edit: I understand that people can get flustered, I understand that some people have trouble under pressure or while being observed. That's why I pointed out multiple times that the problems I gave are extremely, EXTREMELY easy. I'm basically asking them to write down their name and they sit and look at the pen like they've never seen one before. If you can't write a 5 line function to find whether a substring occurs in a larger string when given 45 minutes, your choice of programming language, and as many attempts as you need to debug and try again you simply will not be able to do any useful work as a programmer. If you don't know that to match parens you need to use a stack (or at least that it's one way to do it) you either have a very poor memory or no training in computer science at all - either of which is frankly disqualifying. Anyone borderline competent would invent a stack when presented with this problem if they hadn't already been told this fact a dozen times during their education or even light reading about algorithms.
That's moving the goalposts. There are plenty of candidates for Congress they voted against as well.

But, sure, how about Barack Obama? https://www.presidency.ucsb.edu/documents/fact-sheet-creatin... The one who created the hated Obamacare, but they rebelled when their R representatives threatened to cancel the ACA.

No, they're the byproduct of a failed educational system and culture of unearned entitlement. They expect others to save them from drug addiction while doing every possible to prevent help. And they only have this power because of the Senate represents land instead of people.
> To set it as your default search engine on iOS, you need to first install a separate Kagi Search app from the App Store, enable the extension, and then dig through some fairly obscure Safari settings so that the Kagi app can run with enough permissions to intercept/redirect search URLs for other search engines.

And worse, even then it will then only work (at least for me) about 3 times of 4. The other times it will give you the "dummy" site you don't want, and you'll have to reload to get Kagi. Or sometimes it will reload for you after an indeterminate delay, sometimes even after you've already clicked through to a result.

I'm still (mostly) happy with Kagi, but I gave up using their extension for Safari on desktop. I'm having much better luck using a custom redirect in StopTheMadness. I'm not sure what they do differently, but setting Safari to use Ecosia and redirecting with StopTheMadness seems to avoid the problems I was having with Kagi's dedicated extension.
Yes, Europe has given more aid overall. And certainly much more per capita in many countries. The US has given more military aid, but not that much more.
