Yes, but we understand that game and have a strong legal base to tackle it as well (see: Cartels & the Sherman Act/Clayton Acts).

Further - It's REALLY hard to keep a cartel stable (much less secret) if there are more than single-digit members. Hell - OPEC is a great example. It's only 12 country members, and they can barely hold the thing together. Angola just left last year over disagreements...

So breaking up the monopoly and continuing to apply existing cartel laws would be a perfectly fine approach to tackling this problem. It's really disingenuous to imply we can't fix this. We can and have. It's like people don't remember "Robber baron" history at all...
I'm not sure. On one side, having trade relationships would maybe also contribute to peace between the countries who take part in these agreements. On the other side you have countries that might try and conquer instead of building relationships. There are so many edge cases to this question it's hard to think of a answer that feels right. I am also no expert on the matter.
One thing to note though, is that wars are not always grenades and guns, sometimes having more money is enough to get unfair advantages on other countries. It's a big topic.
Think LISP vs COBOL. Both are Turing complete. What you can implement in one, you can implement in the other. But the spec for one is much much larger than the other.

With the virtualization/containerization facilities baked into common desktop OSes today, we could deliver a complete (and far more secure) experience, needing only a fraction of the boilerplate WHATWG stuffed into Chrome and Firefox over the years.

And with the magic of compilers, we could transpile most existing work down to the new simplified VM. Most “web apps” are already getting transpiled from typescript/javascript to minified javascript. Changing the target is not an insurmountable task.
Show HN: Chatleh – AI Customer Support for Professional Services
We built Chatleh to solve a problem we kept facing: handling website inquiries without bloated, pricey tools like Intercom. Professional service firms - lawyers, accountants, consultants — told us they wanted something simpler that still qualifies leads and explains services 24/7. So, we made Chatleh.

It is an AI chatbot you can train with your website or docs in minutes. It scrapes your site or uses added context to answer questions and collect leads, no coding needed. What is different? It is lightweight, compliance-aware (big for law/accounting), and works via a site embed or shareable link for social media. We focused on smart lead qualification — asking the right questions naturally - and concise chat summaries emailed to you. It supports 95+ languages too, which surprised us with how useful it’s been for global reach.

You can try the demo on our site (bottom-right widget) or this link: https://chatleh.com/chat?uid=LzXGW2OJNI&fs=1. No signup barriers — just play with it. We have got a free 7 days trial to start.

How did it come about? After testing tons of chatbots, we found most were overkill or underdelivered. We built this over months, wrestling with a lean UI that still integrates smoothly. It is not perfect - feedback on the AI’s responses or setup flow would be awesome. Previous HN threads on chatbots inspired us to keep it dead simple.

My email is in my profile if you want to chat. What do you think of this, will it be useful for your work?
IIRC Ethernet over the Main Electricity can interfere with Shortwave as well.
No, I'm saying they use Google to navigate.

If they want a lasagna recipe, they use Google. If (for whatever reason), a particular lasagna recipe is not findable via this method, it for all intents and purposes doesn't exist.

I hope I'm making myself clear.

The government was moderating speech through those private companies, like twitter. Before musk bought it was literally taking government orders on what to censor, so your basic argument is not responding to what i already said. You come off as a dishonest, incoherent person and you're now saying i'm dismissing the thing i spent the first paragraph acknowledging, then calling me a troll. Wacky.

Given you have now proven you have no interest in standing up for other people's free speech until it's you being threatened you will unfortunately find it hard to convince anyone. Even now you have no ability to admit you were wrong in the past to cheer other people's free speech rights being taken away. What a disappointment.
13 year ago I had a professor who had one of these 11" Airs for this exact reason. He was always tunneled into some other system and the Air primarily served as his terminal. He loved it for that.

Why should the percentage change over time?

Given that it's a percentage it already accounts for inflation, so I see no reason to ever change the default.
This is a great point. Nobody interviewing at Facebook is unsure if they want to work at Facebook.
They're very similar, but handling both together my old 2016 12" is just slightly smaller and lighter in a way that is really appealing compared to my 2020 13" M1 Air. It's 350g lighter, which makes more of a difference than I would have guessed when throwing it in a bag.

Which issue was that? Wasn't it just that Apple prioritised battery health over performance? I always thought that fiasco was overblown. They could have been more transparent in the settings though.
For reception, a tower with a 3 element Yagi antenna with a rotator so you can point it in exactly the right direction.

Although I think you can do it cheaper - people have had a lot of success with a Beverage antenna. It takes up a lot of space though!
Funny thing is it was probably 40fps but you remember it feeling like 120fps.
Thanks, I'll do more research. This is becoming temping as Air is affordable so will attract less negative energy from *wife.
Does Apple do most Webkit development too, not just Safari? I thought it was originally spun off from KHTML. Did Apple take over most of the development at some point?
The US did disarm somewhat after the Cold War, but kept a lot in place for pork-barrel reasons and then the absolutely huge waste of money that was the War On Terror.

People believed the "end of history" narratives about Russia, and even that it would become like the rest of the ex-communist states, a normal part of liberal Europe. That should have changed after 2014, but by then the grip of the financial crisis was preventing any increases in state spending.
I'm not much of a MacOS fan, but his laptop is the best laptop I've ever owned. I got the 8GB/256GB version and it was worth the price because my kid still uses it every day. The 720p webcam is fantastic quality. The speakers are the best I've ever had in a laptop.

We just replaced the battery with a new one from iFixit and it's like a brand new machine.

I think fair can be refined to a middle class lifestyle where after working for 30 years you can have your house paid odd and enjoy the final third of your life in retirement having healthcare coverage the whole time.

While nailing down all the particulars can be daunting I think the basic sketch as above is what people mean most of the time pretty uncontroversially.
> For exemple I can’t remember seing a PR with an API that seems plausible but never ever existed

A PR is code that has already been tested and refined, which is not comparable to the output of an LLM. The output of an LLM is comparable to the first, untested code that you wrote based off of your sometimes vague memory of how some API works. It's not at all uncommon to forget some details of how an API works, what calls it supports, the details of the parameters, etc.
Upgrades are always a risk. The more important the system, the more important having a cautious and go-slow approach is.
Maybe it's time to question it. I don't think there's anything wrong with the now traditional whiteboard interview as such, but the notion that the same questions are all just as relevant to disparate teams is highly questionable. Technical questions should be based on the actual codebases or systems, IMO. I would also question the Hogwarts style approach of interviewing the candidate as a generic dev and then sorting them to the right team.
> Chefs actually are subject to being tasted before hire. It doesn’t happen in a 1hr interview

Exactly. What you're describing is more closer to doing a take home and then explaining it.

> Doctors go through excessive amounts if additional schooling and board certification to prove they know how to e.g. cut open a body.

So not part of the interview? It's not like there aren't certification in the industry, e.g. AWS, Microsoft, Java, etc etc.

> Maybe you’re asking for the software industry to become more formalized in skillset requirements? Or maybe engineers should bring their portfolio instead?

I doubt "formalization" helps (see above, some of it exists and those are off the mark just as well). In essence leet code is the "formalized" requirement. It's just a bad 1.

I'm asking to come back to common sense.

Again, doctors don't cut open a body live as part of the interview. So even if I have my AWS certifications (equivalent of your example) the interviewer will and still does ask me to do a live system design interview. How is that the same?

I use an M3 air for my personal machine which is used for c++ development and music production — it’s an excellent machine and I have yet to encounter a task that would require a MPB (at least for the type of work I am involved with).
There would almost certainly be an escape hatch, but it would require user approval to run native code. It would probably be in the form of libraries that could be 'blessed' to run native. The vast majority of software does not need this.
The First King of Modern Computing
The problems FAANG companies and an exceptional group of frontier AI companies are solving are leagues different to the problems regular startups think they are solving.

So it only makes sense for those Tier-1 companies to be asking questions that are related to the a vast amount of problems they face on a regular basis.

The iPhone 16 made battery replacements slightly easier, but that didn't translate to cheaper prices on battery replacements (they're $100 now).

You still need to heat up the adhesive to remove the back glass (at least you don't have to disassemble the entire phone out through the front anymore), and the new trick with the 16 is that once you're inside the battery is mounted with an adhesive that can be loosened by hooking up a 9V battery for 90 seconds.

First Insights into the U.S.-U.K. Cloud Act Agreement
I just gave away my 12" laptop a year ago to a family that used it more than I did and I miss that thing like crazy! I would happily, happily pay once again to get something with a similar form factor and weight.
It was dystopian comms:

"Congrats, we are rolling out battery stability improvements! You may have an appeasement of $50. Please note that your appeasement will require singing up for a third party service which costs $30/yr. Also please note that your particular appeasement has already been claimed by someone else. You're welcome!"

Uh, appeasement? For...what exactly? Oh, you bricked my phone because it might catch on fire? And somebody iterated through all the valid IMEI numbers and already claimed my $50? Okay, got it.
what if your project is a niche, you have no plan for an exit, how do you share profit with the accelerator?
"Return" to whom. Byzantium was never "European", it was shunned at its time by entire Europe - by both the Catholic Mediterranean parts and the Germanic parts. The Romaioi (as the Byzantines called themselves) turned into Ottoman Rums as the empire was a multi-cultural, multi-national empire united under the banner of Ottoman-ness. The uncle of the fallen emperor, who was next in line for being the Byzantine emperor after the fall of his nephew was made the "Grand Beg" (akin to viceroy) of the entire Ottoman Balkans after the fall of Constantinople. He governed lands far bigger than what his ancestors governed even ~200 years ago. A lot of Mehmed I's begs were ex-Byzantines who were still Christian, and, well Byzantine. Except they wore Ottoman turbans now - and most of them just didn't and kept wearing Byzantine attire.

So its like what some historians say: The fall of Constantinople was mostly a change of hats.
It says they lack the social capital to know what these questions are and how to study them. Is the goal to optimize for people with family and friends already in tech that can pass on the "secret" or to maintain the fig leaf illusion of meritocracy?

While I don't have a 2013 Mac anymore, I do have both an M3 MacBook Pro, and a Ryzen 5 Lenovo for development work with different clients and I really don't find the Mac that much faster in day to day usage.

Sure in benchmarks it gets bigger numbers, but in normal usage it's negligible. That's probably more due to MacOS getting less efficient than anything else though.
Maybe. But, isn't the EU a large collection of countries? Meaning that it isn't about updating the free trade of the West; it's about rejecting the US which turned into a not-a-friend seemingly overnight. As a Canadian and a European, I'm going outside my way to not buy from the US. I used to boycott Nestle but if Canadian Superstore has only Nescafe or something from the US, I'm going for Nestle.
Macbook Air is fine for iOS development

The iOS simulator is neither a simulator or emulator in traditional sense.
Rather it is software layer with graphics output where (simple) iOS apps can run. Everything runs as native code. Even if you test your executables on Intel, the iOS app is compiled to native x64 code.

The iOS devices A-chips are all the same family as the M-chips, and some of the iPads even use M-chips. So performance should be equivalent or even a bit faster on the Air than what you experience on the final devices.

Only thing that is slow is (now deprecated) OpenGLES code -- Presumably because this goes through a software graphics layer.
It's about a medical oxygen-supply device provider (think CPAP machines).

Nothing to do with Air Products, nor other industrial gas providers.

Now, now. Because Trump is 'hOrRiBLe' for putting an honest face on fascism and imperialism that always existed in the US and its vassals, we have to have outrage and do the very things we criticize him for doing.
They didn't try power limiting the cards.
The good news (at least for the EU, don't know about non-EU European countries) is that groceries are only a blip on the radar when it comes to imports (of course, energy is used for groceries, but that applies both to European and US products) [1]:

We do 'import' a lot of services from the US:

Thanks. How much memory does it have? I figured 16 GB might be a bit in the low end for XCode, the emulator, some other random software and a lot of Firefox tabs.
Personally, I have replaced most of the DDG bangs with firefox keyword searches. As long as your target site accepts the search string as part of the url, you can achieve the same thing without any search engine redirect.

As an example, my python search bookmark:

url: https://docs.python.org/3/search.html?q=%s
keyword: py

Means that I can type ctrl-L py and it does the same thing that ctrl-K !py used to do.
Well, there's precedent for that since the $(aws eks get-token) is just a base64 pre-signed GetCallerIdentity URL but I don't think that's documented anywhere, either, but can be spotted by squinting at aws-iam-authenticator source

My suspicion is that if they didn't want to bother to write a C++ client, they for sure wouldn't have the empathy(?) to document how anyone else could, too. I said empathy but I kind of wonder if by publishing how something works they're committing to it, versus they're currently only one commit away from changing it in their clients, without having to notify anyone
That’s not a point, just an opinion.
> If you want to switch your search engine for Safari on iOS, you open Settings, tap Safari, tap Search Engine, and tap your preferred search engine. Not many users do this, and the conclusion is that the default has an unfair advantage.

As long as you don’t want a search engine that is not on the Apple’s authored list.

I had one for a while. Usually I would have IntelliJ, a terminal, and a browser all fullscreen and I'd 3-finger swipe between them. It worked reasonably well.
Even today I think a lot of Doom clones look better (or more nostalgic) with software rendering and texture mapping rather than OpenGL. There's an intensity of saturation to the colors that's lost. Fireblu is never quite so eye burning as when it's in software.

I love the idea that if you're entitled to care and you get hurt while your insurance company delays that care that they owe you something. They've been open about the ways they abuse the system in order to deny people care that they paid for and are entitled to. The basic agreement at the center of our society is that you get what you pay for, but these companies seem to think that negotiations begin once they have your money in their pocket and they need to make the process of actually getting what you paid for as difficult as possible hoping you'll burn out and give up. They need to be held to account for that.
Why would I read up on this? If I told you politics had been astrolified in the past 10 years and that right wingers were behaving with Leo energy while left wingers were behaving with Gemini energy would you want to look that up or would you recognise the absurdity of it and move on with your life?
Agreed, its always nicer for me to have something to work with, even if by the end of it its entirely rewritten.

It helps to have it generate code sometimes to just explore ideas and refine the prompt. If its obviously wrong, thats ok, sometimes I needed to see the wrong answer to get to the right one faster. If its not obviously wrong, then its a good enough starting point we can iterate to the answer.

Good point, I think at least some lossy “compression” into a GUI is possible. The guy who’ll make the GUI for LLMs is the next Jobs/Gates/Musk and Nobel Prize Winner (I think it’ll solve alignment by having millions of eyes on the internals of LLMs), because computers became popular only after the OS with a GUI appeared.

Well, it's just bad journalism, cause what they are referring to is a quantum inertial navigation system, not a clock – it's just thousands of time more precise. The plan happen to also have an atomic clock (which is used to properly integrate inertia through time), without having to rely on external GPS (which is a clock).

You just have to get closer to the source and find better information: https://www.gpsworld.com/uk-government-tests-quantum-inertia...
Libertarians have always been about Freedom. Freedom to oppress the powerless, however they see fit. It's their fever dream. This state will inevitably degenerate into a feudal mess. Lois McMaster Bujold's Vorkosigan Saga book series features a world like this that she dubbed Jackson's Whole. The entire series is a fun read, but the novella "Labyrinth", which is also contained within the novel "Borders of Infinity", specifically explores this world.
And neither is recommended to be used over AvaloniaUI (or Uno, or Gir.Core if you want to target just Linux), which supports it.

Given the amount of whining about Linux GUI support despite good and proven solutions being provided, it leaves me with an impression some parts of Linux community actually don't want support at all and the goal is to have a convenient scapegoat to complain about.
