It's in progress: quic is in testing in http://pkg.go.dev/golang.org/x/net/quic
and http3 is being implemented https://github.com/golang/go/issues/70914

Since Go has strong backwards compatibility guarantees, they're unlikely to commit to APIs that may need to change in the standard library.
A language which can be either interpreted or compiled doesn't exist? Nobody tell the Common Lispers, they'd vanish in a puff of logic.
Can't share the company name, but it's a relatively small startup with a few thousand monthly active users.

Here's what our current stack looks like:

- LLM Access: Custom proxy layer to an OpenAI-compatible gateway for chat completion, transcriptions, image generation, embeddings (we started with LangChain but were fighting with it more than it helped us). Now we use the OpenAI SDK + a custom API gateway that handles cost tracking, metered billing, API with model fallbacks, aliases, and feature flags (e.g., supports_structured_output, supports_reasoning, modality: text, image, audio, etc.).

- Workflow Orchestration: We started with a very simple task executor + background job queue to handle retries and durable executions. Now it has become a real limitation, and we are looking for a complete replacement, considering Temporal, trigger.dev, and Conductor. I don't see an obvious winner here, everything looks like a really sophisticated piece of tech that will have a learning curve and require some rethinking of our decisions and serious refactoring to support new flows.

- Observability: OTEL + https://signoz.io, we don't track LLM outputs for security reasons (consumer product, a lot of private stuff).

- Cost Tracking: We embedded cost tracking into our API proxy layer. For each request, we estimate usage and push it into ClickHouse (via TinyBird) to provide analytics of product usage and to our metering/billing provider (Stripe meters, but evaluating Orb to replace Stripe).

- Agent Memory / Chat History / Persistence: Postgres for everything + S3 for files and images. Frankly, it looks like a chat app schema (chat threads, messages, attachments). Relatively simple and straightforward.

- Billing: This was a real pain - a hybrid subscription with a monthly fee + pay-as-you-go for overages. Stripe offers limited support for subscriptions with usage billing and does not support automatic top-ups. Implementing a free plan + paid plan with metered usage required a lot of code and even more tests. I thought billing providers had already solved this?

- RAG: Custom document ingestion service based on LlamaIndex (document extraction, indexing, querying), managed Qdrant for vector search. Pros - works well, quite simple, scales well. Cons - requires an API boundary layer and more work upfront but was quite low-maintenance in the long run.

- Integrations (Tools, MCPs): LLM tools wrappers + user credentials management (API keys, OAuth) to connect users' CRM, Notion, whatever. That's a big pain; we have accumulated quite some debt here because we can't decide on a layer to manage this. There is no open-source "go-to" solution.
Where do you see emotional reaction?

All I do in each reply is point out how you generalize and get surprised that you are being called out.

No emotional reactions. Show me where they are?
There should not be any physical centralization. Use a series of redundant IPFS pins and/or torrents or some decentralized database of some kind.
And the free work we do is exactly for the platforms dominating us, we do all the curation of data for their machine learning to train on, getting paid in scraps of dopamine to get addicted and perpetually perform work on data.

Data is the new oil, just better since there's a never-ending cycle of creating more of it.
I will always have more respect for prostitutes, pimps, drug dealers and thieves than people working in "defense".

Even an exceptionally violent and prolific gangster could never come close to contributing to the suffering of as many people as your regular MIC employee, no matter where they're employed.

If I were to try to imagine how I could realistically inflict the most suffering on the world, the clear answer would just be "get a defense job", I really couldn't do any worse than that no matter how hard I tried. Maybe starting a defense company would be worse. Team work makes the dream work, as they say.

If there is, I'm not aware of it.
I personally assume that they wouldn't be processing all sound at all time from a device because it would be massively expensive for them. Obviously, it's technically possible that they could be, but I don't see how it would be financially possible. If we talk about targeted surveillance, then that is certainly financially possible. But I find it unlikely I would be targeting among the millions of people using these.
That sounds like the kind of code that you want to be done with and never touch again. You can only dream of it not being buggy or catching up with the newest standard.
Seriously, i would bring any forum software and use it as a valid project management tool.
That's been the Democratic Party's strategy for decades: Don't confront them and the Republican candidate, Trump in particular, will 'shoot themselves in the foot'.How is that working? On their part, it's just cowardice and laziness.

There is no way you will win, no way they will stop, unless you fight (politically and socially) and defeat them.
> side note: sad that .NET and C# are not considered "major

I've said it before on here, but the tech community severely underrates .NET today. It's not Windows only (and hasn't been for ~8 years) plus C# is a very nice language. F# is also an option for people who like functional languages. I'd highly recommend giving it a try if you haven't already.
No, HN is very algorithmic. Stories get demoted if the comment or voting pattern triggers certain patterns that are associated with low quality discussion or I believe if enough users flag it.

I think people are just tired of seeing this obvious book promotion story get reposted multiple times per day.
>I've yet to meet anyone, who's met anyone, who's been harmed by not turning that setting off

I've yet to meet anyone, who's met anyone, who's been harmed in an airplane accident. It still happens.

(No, I'm not saying that Alexa data sharing is equal to physical harm in an airplane accident -- just highlighting that this is a silly argument).
> IMO it is not the case. And I'd go farther in thinking LLM won't even be a component of AGI if we get there.

And why do you think that?

I don't actually think 96-99 was actually all that interesting from a technical POV. The people working the generation before me got the exciting stuff (which I got to play with as a kid, but didn't work actively in)

It's just that there was an exciting cultural/economic moment. The end of the milennium was special because there was a general sense of optimism and progress overall. There were definitely problems, and injustice, but it just felt different.
They've tried for years and nobody steps up. And as it turns out they couldn't even maintain torrent files at scale. Broken for years, and still no strategy for versioning them when metadata or files change.

Also until recently their whole model was storing physical material (on an active fault line next to an oil refinery) then allowing digital access to it. Courts ruled that illegal for modern works.
I had friends that worked at a startup that Cisco acquired. They have options to buy at around $30. So they bought the shares and watched the stock hit $79 but didn't sell. Then the stock dropped to $20 and even though they didn't sell the stock they had to pay taxes because of how the AMT (Alternative Minimum Tax) worked at the time. Even if they sold all the stock they had they couldn't cover the tax bill. Along with the option back dating scandals I think this is one of the reasons all the companies I have worked at since give out RSUs and sell 40% when they vest to pay your estimated tax bill.
And to be clear, this is the second time a Tesla failed to see a tractor trailer crossing the road and it killed someone by way of decapitation, the first being in 2016:

https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2016/jul/01/tesla-dri...

Notably, Tesla's response to the 2016 accident was to remove RADAR sensors in the Model 3. Had they instead taken this incident seriously and added sensors such as LiDAR, that could detected these obstacles (something that any engineer would have done), the 2019 accident and this "cartoon road" failure would have been avoided. For this reason I believe the 2019 accident should be considered gross professional negligence on the part of Tesla and Elon Musk.

We did this, we realized we never really used them. It has made our home feels a bit more peaceful. Our inflection point was the upsells we would get every time we talked to it. “Would you also like to shop for Prime Day?”
I am not the target audience, but I applaud the attempt at a different pricing model. Even if it has flaws (pointed out elsewhere in this thread), I’m happy to see someone attempt something other than subscriptions.
> Having to weigh the pros and cons of eroding privacy protections

The typical consumer doesn't do that, at all. It's a nearly universal blindspot.

Here's a fun Q. Do you know how many apps on your phone have business relationships with Gravy Analytics? Why not? The personal detriment is much worse than Amazon.
It depends. If you buy the home together after marriage, even if it was entirely the man's money, it can lead to the man losing the house. I don't think a prenup can exempt a man from child support or guarantee custody of the children.

Also, asking for a prenup is not exactly the easiest thing. Can you imagine saying, hey I want to get married, quite possibly saying "till death do us part", but can you agree too this prenup for when we fail. Starting a marriage with the idea that you will fail doesn't seem great to me.

I read that some politicians in a. state (don't remember which), were talking about allowing a couple to remove the right of a no fault divorce, only allow at fault divorces. I think if such a thing becomes a law, that would help boost a lot of confidence for men.

The article doesn't say what the headline says. At all. Never in the article does it say that "our capacity for language emerged 135,000 years ago".
What the article says is that they have genomically traced our species back to around 135,000 years ago to the point where we started splitting off in different groups, and as we all have the capacity for language we must have had it at the point of split as well (before that all could be said to be in the same local group. Possible, what with those population bottlenecks and everything).

There's nothing in there saying there wasn't language before, nor why it shouldn't have been present much earlier. Early enough that e.g. Neanderthals could equally well be covered.

You're never met anyone who been able to prove harm.

If your insurance payments increases 5% because Amazon sold the data to some broker, who then sold it to your insurance company, who figures you're living a slightly more risky life because you go outside 7% more than the average person, how would you even begin to prove this?
Funny, because I could swear that for every comment that rises some criticism against Rust design/implementation/ergonomics/whatever, I find a dozen that "respectfully disagree", i.e. try very hard to deny validity of original claims.

It is somewhat similar, actually, when someone states a negative opinion on Rust community and marketing around it. It is usually followed by those that say "you met wrong people".

Of course, you won't find any examples in this thread xd.
Yep, if you are depending on perception by media you have already lost. They will manipulate it to look however they like, trivially and convincingly.

If change does occur, what will happen is they will repaint history to make it seem as if the most cowish placid of the protests brought the change, to fool the public. And people actually believe it.
The biggest road block IMO is that there are tons of people with "the next great Unicorn app idea", overwhelming numbers who's ideas are well beyond their means to implement or just plain bad to begin with. Having just a little road bump of needing to actually make something first filters out a lot of people.
Doesn't that feel like theft though? The drive should be advertised as its fully useful capacity, with x Gb of overage - like turbo in a car or on my electric blower. I know I can't use it all the time, but it's there in a pinch. Then people who have specific use cases can oversaturate their drives like they overclock their processors.
We have more than 50 years of experience in this, I've been coding for 50 years myself, and there was a huge industry when I started.

I still follow KISS, and if you're writing 600+ line functions, it is little surprise you forget things in the tightly written logic of code.
This is one of those gossipy, salacious memoirs. It’s not an explosive political revelation or a whistleblowing mission.

This person is publishing a book for fame and money. The only reason it’s being interpreted as a noble act is because it appeals to people who dislike Facebook, but even those people are missing the obvious problem that the only reason she can write this memoir is because she was deeply involved with creating and running the company they dislike.
Asking everybody nicely to stop contributing to climate change does not work to stop climate change. It is an individualized solution to a societal problem.

We didn't clean up our water by asking people to stop buying lightbulbs from the factory that dumped mercury directly into the river - we made it illegal for the company to do so, and we were successful.
I concur. The whole thing was lame and whiny.

There are now three cases of the Trump admin explicitly ignoring orders from the Judiciary:

- The deportation of a Brown University Professor / kidney transplant specialist on an H1B (https://www.nytimes.com/2025/03/16/us/brown-university-rasha...)

- The deportation of Venezuelan immigrants using the Alien Enemies Act (https://6abc.com/post/trump-administration-ignores-judges-or...)

- The release of funds to states that Trump does not like (https://apnews.com/article/federal-grants-loans-spending-fre...)

Relatedly, many of my friends are now looking for quick avenues out of the country, including applying for EU/Canadian citizenship.
I care a lot about privacy, I think others do as well. We don’t actually have that many choices as much of the privacy issues are difficult to avoid.
I'd like to see the system done away with. It doesn't make sense that buddies of the executive branch should be given special treatment... same goes for Trump & Co.

It has gotten wild with preemptive pardons and so on. That's not equal protection under the law ...

If the system was really a system where they reviewed exceptional cases of non connected folks and issued pardons I'd be ok with it, but it's not.

Having said that ... this declaration seems to be the purview of the courts not the executive branch.
RTGs are fun and fine for many fringe purposes. At the milliwatts-to-watts scale, the amount of radioisotopes makes them way too risky to use in commodity electronics. Fine for fringe, remote power, but not great for like laptops.

For reference, the amount of Strontium-90 in one 250 Watt thermal (~10 Watt electric) RTG could give out about 63 million certain death 10 Sievert doses if people were to ingest or inhale all of it.
Life expectancy differences in Mississippi vs. the UK is largely due to race. Mississippi is about 36% black, and blacks in the US have a 5+ year shorter life expectancy than whites.
There are areas (IME - React internal tooling frontends) in which the only missing piece is the 'review UI' and it isn't even that important - vibe coding is good enough. My point is I've been living in the future you speak of for the past couple months and I love it.

It was also an era before the paranoid security of the appartus of the state slammed down hard post-9/11.

By which I mean we could do "illegal" raves in abandoned warehouses or spontaneous outdoor spaces and not end up (generally) in holding cells.

After 9/11 the consequences of perceived deviancy became far more extreme.

That and the absolute wave of decentered distraction of social media hadn't arrived yet. There was still some sense of shared common cultures, rather than a bazillion fractured windowless monads fed through social media and Spotify feeds

> At the same time, neither QUIC nor HTTP/3 are included in the standard libraries of any major languages including Node.js, Go, Rust, Python or Ruby.

.NET omission notwithstanding, one of the languages in the list is not like the others: Rust has a deliberately minimal standard library and doesn't include HTTP at all. I don't follow Rust HTTP/3 efforts closely, but there are at least two actively developed libraries: quiche and quinn.
Great idea. Slightly related idea: use the Internet Archive to build a dataset of 6502 machine code/binaries, corresponding manuals, and possibly videos of the software in action.. maybe emulator traces.

It might be possible to create an L LM that can write a custom vintage game or program on demand in machine code and simultaneously generate assets like sprites. Especially if you use the latest reinforcement learning techniques.
I see the issue. Biased people like yourself don't belong in tech.

For the record, I only picked Rust 5-ish years ago out of a 23 years of career. I know plenty of other languages. I was a skeptic at the start as well. Never generalized a pretty big group like you do though.

You should be ashamed.

This got me genuinely interested - until I cloned the project and saw the docker-compose file.

Minio + Celery + 4-5 services just for the main app + Keycloak?

I'm sorry, but this isn't something that "anyone can run".

This is something that requires a beefy server and someone who can manage microservice architectures with 10+ services.

I'm not sure why all of those services are requirements for the app.

I don't know why you need an S3 provider and a federated identity manager to run something that looks like Notion.

I don't know why you need to split the app into 5 microservices.

And I honestly don't think that all of this overhead is needed.

I'll give Docs another look if it decides to trim some of this bloatware.

Eyes are not cameras and brains are not neural networks. Until we have artificial techniques that can match the performance and functionality of this amazing biological equipment we have, our cars must rely on other sensors like LiDAR to make up for the deficiencies in our artificial perception networks that are not overcome by current techniques.

I mean, you just write all your scopes as `(func() { })()` in go, and it works out fine.

Adding `func() {}()` scopes won't break existing code usually, though if you use 'break' or 'continue' you might have to make some changes to make it compile, like so:

I don’t know why anyone in tech believes the myth that their devices are streaming everything.

It’s trivial to inspect traffic from a device. You can see that your devices aren’t constantly streaming data somewhere. You can see a burst of activity after a command.

Beyond that, it would require a massive conspiracy for everyone who ever worked on these programs to never leak details about always-on surveillance recording. It would be a bombshell revelation and you’d see it everywhere.
It forces multi capture when available.

I’ve been using niquests with Python. It supports HTTP/3 and a bunch of other goodies. The Python ecosystem has been kind of stuck on the requests package due to inertia, but that library is basically dead now. I’d encourage Python developers to give niquests a try. You can use it as a drop-in replacement for requests then switch to the better async API when you need to.

https://niquests.readthedocs.io/en/latest/

Traditionally these types of things are developed outside the stdlib for Python. I’m not sure why they draw the line where they do between urllib vs niquests, but it does sometimes feel like the batteries-included nature of Python is a little neglected in some areas. A good HTTP library seems like it belongs in the stdlib.
