these web frameworks for privacy always give me a chuckle. DnT didnt work, why would this?

Advertising is an economy worth more than 7.4 trillion USD. it has evaded most attempts to regulate or restrict it in any meaningful sense in the 21st century. the GDPR serving as a bureaucratic organ to which advertisers must subscribe, or quietly ignore with all but the most modest and encumbered window dressings for the illusion of choice by the user.

you cannot restrict, limit, control, or meaningfully impact a 7.4 trillion dollar economy with a voluntary framework. this market rivals the GDP of many developed nations. it will simply spend its way out of any legal problem. there exists no fine that can tame it.

The only thing you can reasonably do in the face of something that evades even governments themselves, is to ship a built-in version of uBlock and noscript, and a blacklist of advertising provider DNS, that is enabled by default for the user. make cookies whitelist-only, and make counter-fingerprinting technology default.

you must do things that cause, as an organism, marketing and advertising agencies to recoil in terror. DoH is a good example, which rallied nearly every telecom provider in the US to lobby the federal government until Mozilla and others acquiesced to letting them join the club.
It's pretty simple to get a font that looks like DOS, render an <input> tag with custom styling for the command line entry, and an output window for the scrolling portion that copied the last input into the output and then cleared the input.

You can use CSS to make the scrolling window grow from the bottom to the top of the screen, like a DOS window would scroll up and then off.

If this were my project, I'd start with plain browser web components[0] rather than a framework. You could definitely have Cursor write the UI portion for you and then, once you like it, add the command handling.

I wrote an article[1] with some strategies and examples of this kind of complex prompt-driven development with Cursor.

I'm actually not talking about how they handle the database but instead the Database feature of Notion, which is more of a advanced table for the user that can be turned into a Kanban, timeline, calendar, etc. It's one of the main advantages Notion has over other note-taking tools.

DNR. Make sure you hang that around your neck or they will resurrect you from a stroke or other event as an invalid requiring 24/7 care in one of these facilities. Draining your wealth to keep you "alive."
Should we be interested in nuance with respect to the subject? DOGE pretty clearly does things that are illegal, or in the case of security classification, we've been told is really bad.
Its the damn phones and tablets. This abundance of cheap software has really messed up kids attention spans. Computers are a distraction in class and need to be delegated to special times. How do you keep tech out of kids hands out of class?

Anecdote: I grew up on N64 and an era where software was a lot more difficult to come by. As a kid, I'd look forward to buying a floppy disk packaged in a plastic bag held up on a cork board at my local computer shop.

When I got a game on the N64, I would be laser focused on completing it.

I recently purchased a N64 for my niece and nephew who are 8 and 10 respectively. When I was 10 I got Ocarina of time at the beginning of the school year and spent an entire year laser focused on solving every puzzle and completing the game.

Despite my niece and nephew doing reasonably well in school (and being kids to freakin PHD academics) they just cannot sit down and focus on any one game for longer than 15 mins. There seems to be a lack of "perseverance" which worries me.

They must try "every new app", see every new thing on Netflix/Hulu/whatever. Maybe i'm just exhibiting old man syndrome but it really shocked me. I clearly remember being that kid yesterday and doing my best to beat the game. I guess the fact that the N64 only ever had about ~380 games in its entire lifespan made a difference. Each title was a special event. Today there is just so much software for the kids to play with.
People wanting this would be better off using memory architectures, like how the brain does it. For ML, the simplest approach is putting in memory layers with content-addressible schemes. I have a few links on prototypes in this comment:

Does this have an apparent impact on your recommendations?
Most CUDA kernels are hand tuned anyway so it's not clear this is a lot more effort for the programmer. Most compilers can't perform these kind of loop transformation and tiling optimizations for you. The CUDA compiler certainly doesn't do this. So it is actually both possible and very worthwhile to try and be smarter than the compiler in this case.

In terms of scheduling compute kernels, the project doesn't remove the ability of the OS/driver to schedule execution. It's only affecting the instruction sequence within the kernel, which is something OS/drivers don't typically control. They retain full control over when the kernel is executed by the hardware.

(PTX is sometimes compiled to SAAS by the Nvidia driver rather than ahead of time. That does allow the driver to reschedule instructions, but using this project doesn't prevent it from doing that. The driver will compile PTX emitted from this project in the same way as any other)

Google tells me Florida spends about $25k / year / inmate. I’m not sure if that’s before or after the $18k / year each inmate is charged.
My point is that LeetCode and buzzwords became the unofficial benchmark for a software engineer during the distorted/ZIRP era. You had to be good at it to get in, and once in you could just coast your way through, not that anyone would mind because so many of your peers and superiors are doing the same thing and none of it matters as the company itself may be coasting on investor money and never intending on making a profit.

Unfortunately, LeetCode skills and "architecture astronomy" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Architecture_astronaut) are a very poor proxy for actually driving profit. This doesn't mean a LeetCoder (for fun or to play the game - as long as they understand it is a game) can't also be a good contributor in today's market, but their value would come more from experience solving actual business problems and ability to collect/define/argue requirements and then translate them into a system (which may or may not even be code - sometimes a Google Form is all that's needed) rather than whether they know LeetCode.

When it comes to solving business problems and actually driving profit, programming in abstract terms (the kind that LeetCode and most interview processes select for) is worthless - LLMs can do it just fine. The hard part is understanding/fleshing out the business requirements (including being aware of what you don't know, and planning for that or seeking outside help), refining your solution with the relevant stakeholders, and being aware of high-level constraints including regulatory requirements, security, etc. Once you have a good enough specification, programming it is the generally the easy part.
I hesitate to write this, but can you please read an entire post before your respond? If you could you would see that I made it clear my point was broadly true but has plenty of exceptions.

Ethiopia is threating to decend into a another civil war. Military Coups happens someplace every few years. ISIS is doing their terrorism in the north east. Lately Kenya has been one of the better countries in the region, but who knows if that will continue - I wish them luck.

Even in context of Nigeria, all your points miss the important fact that if the government isn't stable and protects you from crime/terrorists all investments are a waste as they will be destroyed.
Ask HN: Best workflow for modernizing a website's design via LLM?
I have a somewhat dated looking website, delivered via wordpress, that I'd like to update to a more modern look. Wordpress itself isn't a requirement going forward, although it's ok too.

Most importantly, I'm not a designer.

Has anyone used LLM's or LLM based tools successfully to overhaul their website's look and feel?

I'm imagining pointing to a website or two and getting a design "inspired by" their design, perhaps. Any suggested tools, or approaches you've tried that worked?

>Why am I starting to believe that france is now more culturally shited towards being a new super power in this multi polar world instead of USA.

Because you are reading a lot of destabilisation propaganda online. I recommend you cut your news and social networks consumption a little bit.

The fact that you are beginning to trust FRANCE over something that MACRON did, no less, speaks volumes.
Given the web’s much wider remit than pdf, it has support for accessibility tools and much better non-visual handling than pdf, so the comparison isn’t entirely fair I think.
If a website doesn’t handle lynx well, there’s a good chance it doesn’t handle accessibility well either.
Yea, elderly care is really labor intensive + you have housing etc costs on top of it.

UK nursing home fees are £80k = 103k USD.
Wonderful story. I wonder if the play was sacrificed to birth Beloved if they are in fact so similar.
No transit system has the money needed to provide great transit to their entire city even though if they did it would save all residents a large pile of money. They compromise on only the densist areas which are easy but mean that you can't get anywhere else reasonably. Of course some areas will always be easier than others to get to, but far too much of any city is not reasonably reachable without a car and that is a problem.
It is indeed, but I’ll be the first to admit it’s a bit clunky to use beyond a few variables and actions.

Sorry for snapping. I’m exhausted with devs complaining that some older and well-established piece of tech (Postgres, HAProxy, nginx to name a few) isn’t easy enough to use, and then using something demonstrably worse, or writing their own terrible version of it. Work trauma.
CSS is absolutely the right tool for constructing layouts because it allows you to make your components with a class (like "commandLine") and then control exactly how that input box lays out on the screen, not only its font and color but also height, scrolling, expanding or not with the window and content, and everything else that affects the look.

Ideally, JS is only for computation, HTML only for making content containers, and all layout and appearance is in CSS.
Well, you're just wrong.

> anything from 2010 onwards is absolutely still useable and can run any website with the right OS

Yes, but you sidestepped the real question here. Can it run the website well?

> yes OS matters as the less computing power used up running the OS, the more available to run programs

I said that hardware was the limiting factor, I didn't say that the OS doesn't matter, however, the OS matters a LOT less.
Oh boy. One of the things I have been doing to test if an LLM is 'there yet' by my standards is if it can spit out solutions in elixir without hallucinating packages that don't exist to get the job done. Since I haven't tested since chatgpt 4 came out I dunno where it's at for that but always felt like a decent litmus test.
Reads like “oh, here’s this amazing thing, it’s called the wheel and the it’s been around for quite a while”. I’m pretty certain I’ve been working with this 20 years ago.

I don't recall any big media stories pushing deliberate release.

Now that I think of it, I DO recall many bullshit spouters, commenters, fringe blogs, "independent journalists," who pushed deliberate release on their little corners of the internet, but who pays them any attention?
This was excellent and rings very true, thank you

OPTION isn't always necessary, there are ways to prevent those requests.

Also, the GPC request will probably only be sent when you enable GPC, which basically means "almost nobody".
Well to be fair, this can be true for many "red" States and areas of "blue" States as well.

It is not like people were not warned, but I expect many people in nursing homes no longer vote.
Only dense areas. Some cities are ignoring dense areas that other cities have proven can support great service because they are not the densest there. People have places to be, and large parts of any city do not have reasonable transit options even though the density is there. Too often you are foced to take the long trip downtown and then back out even though your destination is just barely beyond walking distance.
On my dropbox, I was able to modify and share it on the web or apps. It was not saved.

When I opened html on the file app on my iPhone, js didn't run, so I could only see it

Show HN: My Personal Resume Improver
While looking for a job (mainly through LinkedIn) I encountered the thing called ATS (Application Tracking System) that made my resume land up on the pile of other resumes and never to be seen again. Because I also wanted to build a product again, I started with Aycabtu.com to make it easy to optimize my resume for a job vacancy.

My goal was to keep my own tone of voice and have a nice pdf as output that I could send without a lot of modifying or hassle. Most recently I also added a Motivation Letter generator and a Interview Tip & Tricks section. I use Rails 8 and Anthropic.

Although I don't have a new job yet :) I do have the feeling I'm getting more job interviews and compliments on my resume. (Of course this could also be the Ikea effect)

You do need to sign up with your e-mail and a name but then you can use it immediately. I'm using a credit system now, so all new accounts can generate up to 3 resumes/motivation letter/interview tips (or until my credit at Anthropic is depleted :) )

I know there are already a gazillion other resume generators/improvers. But I would still like your input on how to improve, thanks!
Just to note:

Percentage of people with a college degree: 37.7%

The majority of the country never needed college to obtain the success that they have had. I do concede that it is a positive economic indicator though.

Millenial generation is the largest generation in US history, big generations typically produce big generations. The US currently has a pretty good population pyramid: https://www.populationpyramid.net/united-states-of-america/2...

Right now Gen Z is coming into adulthood, they are one of the smallest generations. After that is Gen Alpha the kids of millenials, University funding might change to reflect that.
If we can spin up the 10 containers with a single docker compose command on a $5/month VPS, this really doesn't seem like too much for an individual.

And the best part: this is MIT licensed. If it's actually difficult to set up, build a nice web UI that makes it easy and you've got a product.
Yes it is. Maybe it is not? (edit, same in the UK). Why is left as an exercise on the blackboard. If you do have elderly parents I would look into the actual costs of facilities near you because you are in for a shock.

However, if you think about it, most people age 40-70 have to keep working and can't afford to slow down to take care of their parents, so they have to outsource it. Keep the job to pay for that care plus all the other expenses of life. It would be nice if I could take a part time job and take care of my parents. But if I quit my full time job, my entire family would be homeless. So, I have to work and pay. Same story for child care, unfortunately. And since it is a for profit sector, the market charges as much as it can, which is always going to be more than you want, and just enough to leave the patient alive for future bleedings.
It's in line with very high COL countries like Switzerland, but higher than most other OECD countries.

The biggest cost factor is also not the housing itself but care/nursing.
It's insane yes. What an incredible waste of tax dollars.
Of course, none of this will prevent china from producing technology that's clearly as impressive, if not more so.
We're working on an "IDE for notes/tasks" [1] in the space of Notion and so on where you can easily self-host the sync backend with a single binary.

The idea is that you can choose between cloud or self-host (and "eject" at any time to switch between the two if you ever change your mind). We hope that might be a good balance between some companies or individuals wanting to self-host but still making it accessible when you don't know how any of that works, which indeed can get complicated fast.

>It feels like a colliding of worlds and a cannibalization that doesn't make sense to me. Like - if the government launched a messaging app competitive with WhatsApp and it drew users away from WhatsApp and it had better encryption ... Would that actually be better for the economy of this country? Something seems off about it to me.

The economy works best when anyone does what is supposed to: the Government sticks to maintaining order, defending the country, public healthcare, public education. The companies are producing goods and services.

Governments trying to undercut businesses isn't doing any good to the economy. There will be less money, less jobs.
Lmarena.ai is a very accurate eval (with stylecontrol). Other benchmarks like AIME and whatever can be trained on/optimized for and therefore should not be trusted. Most ai companies do something fishy to boost their benchmark scores.
You also can't separate the song from the music video.

It is a really catchy song, really cool video that got a ton of MTV air time, really interesting electronic music and he found a way to say “fuck you like an animal”.

I was never a big NIN fan but I remember instantly loving that music video the first time I seen it on MTV.
For Delivery Workers in Latin America, Affordable E-Bikes Are a Superpower
It looks like all the money is for successful missions... for Tesla it's tax credits for consumers buying cars. The same credits other companies get for selling EV's. If there were competition for SpaceX -- they'd be eligible to receive money to put things into space as well.

None of this money seems to be out of the ordinary for me. That's like saying taxpayer dollars are going to Ford or GM (which, much of it is) every time the government buys a vehicle, or anytime they build a building they have to spend taxpayer dollars on materials, labor, etc.

Not really news worthy, IMHO. I thought the figure would be a lot higher, especially since SpaceX is doing so many missions!

Elon has for years been asking for the Governemnt to stop subsidizing EV's with tax credits -- but they've ignored him. Imagine asking the Government to stop giving huge credits to your customers because it's unnecessary and wasteful, yet that's exactly what he's done.

> the incentives for employees were completely disconnected from the underlying business

I've found that even when we were incentivized via direct & simple profit sharing mechanisms, we still struggled with the appropriate focus and urgency. You'd think additional piles of money based upon # of customers coming in the door would provoke substantially more activity.

Money is a huge distraction. The most successful phases of my career have involved putting the customer absolutely first and looking at the money as a causal event based upon a job well done. I've never looked at a direct deposit into my bank account and felt the kind of rush of happiness I get when I see a customer reply that an issue is resolved to their satisfaction.
> I also found out today that the HTML Living Standard is very much a living standard - the whatwg/html repo has had 12,318 commits, the most recent of which was less than 24 hours ago.

I understand their mission of capturing the messy real-world usages of web technologies and distilling them into a standard, paving the cowpaths etc etc.

But I don't see how anything can be called a standard that updates daily.
Perhaps. Technology, instead of giving us more free time, caused us just to fill that free time with different work.
"Sec-GPC: 0" is invalid. The value can only be 1, and that explicitly cannot be changed in the future according to the spec.

This makes GPC a flag that means "unknown" or "opt-out". There is no "please share my data with your newsletter company" value, there can only be "do whatever the default is for sharing my data with any company you partner with".
At that point in the article, I thought Natalie was some new LLM I hadn't heard about.
I love this. Open source projects often suffer from a combination of a funding crisis and maintainer burnout. I think state funded open source projects are a wonderful idea!

By investing in open source projects, governments can create more efficient, transparent, and innovative digital services. If anything I’m sure it’ll save tax payers money on expensive licenses paid to a company in another country.
