> If sellers are not in a particular rush to part with a given good, for whatever reason, there is no reason for an over-supply to lead to lower prices.

This issue is compounded because sellers have to them become buyers. People don't sell their house and then drive themselves into the ocean. For most people a house is where they live. If they sell it they need to buy a new one.

Their motivation for selling is then a function of the house's potential sale value, their new house's cost, and financing rates for them and their potential buyers. If they currently have a very low fixed rate on their house then a new house at a higher rate isn't attractive depending on their current house's potential sale value.

This has the effect of constraining supply and demand.
I don't see why the planned return craft has anything to do with being trapped somewhere. If my yacht runs aground on a deserted island and I choose not to leave on the perfectly functional dinghy to an island town 5 miles away, am I stranded?

I find myself rewinding a lot when listening to podcasts or watching videos. It's definitely more trouble trying to hit the right spot where my mind started wandering, compared to realizing the same thing with a book and flicking my eyes back to wherever the text looks familiar and restarting there, so that may be part of it.

At least for fiction, I like audiobooks for rereading something I've read before, where I can enjoy the story and it doesn't matter whether I miss a few lines that might include an important plot point. With a new book, I'm just rewinding too much unless it's a really engaging book and reader.

If I give the grocery store more than sticker price for the animal products on their shelves it will in no way affect the animal's living conditions.

And even if I bought the more expensive animal products it would also not in any way affect the animal's living conditions.

The price of an animal product in no way affects the way the producer treats the animal. You have the causation completely backwards.

I’m finding that I use locate more and more for this sort of thing. Of course, it produces a lot more output, because it looks at the whole system. But, it is still much faster than find because it runs on some kind of index or something, and it is easy enough to grep out the directory I’m interested in, if needed.
This administration does not want to reduce illegal immigration. They just want to create fear and headlines. If you wanted to reduce illegal immigration, you have a very easy way of doing it through mandating e-verify.
Where to share: Current US political situation
The flags and the downvotes clearly show that there is a sizeable proportion of HNers who feel that posts about US politics are off-topic for HN and don't belong.

I get that.

But for some of us it's important, relevant, and we want both to share what we see/hear/read, and read more about other people's circumstances.

So if you see something on this topic ...

Where do you share it?

Where do you discuss it?

You think it's "reflexive hysteria" to be worried about fascism? Let me ask: when exactly would you recognize it? When would you "step in"?

In Italy, would it be in 1919 when Mussolini founded his party? Or 1922 when he marched on Rome? Maybe 1924 when opposition leader Matteotti was murdered? Or 1926 when all other parties were banned?

For Nazi Germany, was January 1933 when Hitler became Chancellor too early to worry? March 1933 when he got emergency powers? 1935 with the Nuremberg Laws? 1938 with Kristallnacht?

By the time it's obvious enough to satisfy skeptics like you, it's usually too late. What we're seeing now...invoking the Alien Enemies Act, mass detention, ideological purges of government workers, demonizing immigrants, these aren't random events. They're recognizable patterns.

Don't loose faith. With a single company giving feedback, you probably got already 50% of all feedbacks you can get. Your effort for asking all the others was already worth it.

On top of that, most of the feedback will reflect what state the company is in or what kind of people they are looking for, and not necessarily you or your skills. Eg. they want a deeply technical person, or a good communicator. In one year, for the same position, they will want a different set of skills.

If you know a lot of prospective companies, experiment with your CV / introduction and try to A/B test what is working. This is totally under your control.

Show HN: I built a non-algorithmic social network for just my family and friends
For the past month, we’ve been running a small, private social network I built for my closest connections. No AI, no algorithms, no ads — just genuine human interaction. It’s been surprisingly liberating.

What it is: A simple platform where my family and friends can share updates, photos, and conversations. Entirely private—you only see content from people you follow. No user search. You can only connect with people you already know in real life. No tracking, no content analysis, no data mining. Zero algorithmic feeds—no engagement-driven optimization.

Why we built it: I quit all the traditional social networks last September(https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43310766), and found that improved my life significantly. With one caveat - I often felt disconnected from my family and close friends. So I wanted to bring back just that much - an unfiltered non-greed-driven space.

Technical implementation: Nothing fancy—just a basic CRUD application with: User authentication, Text and Photo uploads (stored on Cloudflare), Chronological feed and comment threads, minimal infrastructure (Google App Engine + Vercel)

Simplicity is the point.

What I’ve learned: 1. Without algorithms dictating visibility, people naturally moderate their posting frequency 2. When everyone knows each other, accountability happens organically 3. The absence of infinite content eliminates doomscrolling. And I actually feel filled just taking a look at my feed and seeing nothing new was added since my last visit! 4. People share more authentically when they aren’t worried about performance metrics

This isn’t a startup launch or an open-source project (yet?). Just an experiment that has made my digital social life feel more human.

The best part? Everyone I built it for is already using it! Actually, I’m hesitant to grow it too much, because then I’d have to start worrying about server cost and a monetization strategy, and so on.
The UK does fine employers, its not sufficient to stop it because people work through dodgy contractors.

The UK also fines landlords which has caused problems for people who look or sound foreign, including some British citizens (especially poor ones who tend not to have passports which are the easiest documents to check).

The best proposal I have heard is to provide a cash reward to illegal immigrants for turning in people who knowingly employ them illegally.

The fact that governments do not try these solutions makes me suspect they want to keep that supply of cheap labour - most illegals here work for well under minimum wage.

I have begun to recognize a sense of restlessness in myself that prompts me to optimize for information, as you have said, and I think I can begin to name it: anxiety due to withdrawal. It is illuminating to have once been a smoker because the feeling is quite similar. That our tastes have changed is due at least in part to the addiction of information. And a solution, at least in part, is to accept the pain of withdrawal.

It can be exceedingly difficult to distinguish good habits from bad where they involve the necessities and pleasures of life, such as food and information. Bad habits tend to comfort us in the moment but weaken us over time; good habits tend toward opposite. When I am honest with myself, I recognize the majority of my information seeking as quelling some anxious feeling rather than building true knowledge or wisdom, and the majority of the information I sought to be naught but empty distractions in the long term. And I also recognize my backlogs as a series of deaths that I have not accepted: I retain them to grasp onto the passing potentiality of my youth; I hold fast to the mirage of different lives.

Got it. You disregard the opinions of people who have seen dementia first hand in favor of a DNC talking point. “Don’t trust your lying eyes! Biden is as sharp as a tack”.

I know what I saw, and I am sure your dad did too. I spent years as a caregiver to an Alzheimers patient, I may not be a “medical expert” but I am capable of recognizing similarities, especially when they are obvious and frankly common for dementia sufferers. I can also make judgements of who I vote for and not vote for based on my own observations. Whatever your opinion of my decision and my reasoning for it—-that is meaningless to me.

> make something like cattle farming effectively carbon-negative

The situations in which this is the case (which are oversimplified by the doc) are so specific and small scale that to think they will address the environmental impact without acknowledging the insane, unsustainable demand for meat is magical thinking. People love to point to ideas like this and stuff like feeding cows seaweed to avoid the reality of the dire need for significant shifts in our consumption behaviors.

> but a properly-managed ranch should have happy, healthy animals.

again - the percentage of meat that comes from these conditions is so small as to be virtually irrelevant in the context of the animal agriculture industry

Depends on what you consider related, but that's about how many I'd expect to show up at a family reunion.
The one that always trips me up is that `ln` is “dumb” about how it handles the first argument.

If the first argument isn’t an absolute path, it must be relative to the second argument, and not to pwd.

ln ./foo ./bar/baz

./bar/baz will be a symlink whose literal contents are `./foo` so it will look for foo in the same directory (bar), rather than in bar’s parent directory.

This is totally backwards from how other utilities behave. Which is completely understandable if you know what it’s doing under the hood. But it is counterintuitive and surprising.
I would strongly recommend you _don't_ get a Framework.

I bought one. It lasted less than a year. One day I pulled it out to use it and it just stopped booting. It had been barely used up to that point. No drops or anything like that.

Support was giving me the runaround, too -- by not using info I provided them, not answering direct questions, and asking me to provide info I had already provided.

Do some research on Framework support. You'll find it is atrocious.

The idea is absolutely amazing and I hope it succeeds. The expansion cards are an AMAZING feature. The problem is that the quality bar just isn't being met, yet.
I agree that it's a dire , expensive mess. But it doesn't seem like low hanging fruit at all...

Anything that will improve the situation will be expensive and/or take a long time to achieve.

For tar, I just remember tar czvf and tar xzvf.

Of course, then we get the question, ok, why not use a program that just provides those options? But, I think all the extra functionality of tar is nice to have sitting off there in the background; I’d have to look it up if I actually wanted to use it, but it is all there in the documentation, and nicely compatible with the files produced by my memorized commands.
You're not wrong, but anti elitism is a much greater problem than potentially being perceived as elitist.

When I say you should read, I'm not really saying that's the only valid way to take in information.

I'm saying that to a first approximation, if you do read, you are probably practicing healthy habits around taking in information. And if you don't, it's likely you're not.

It's a slightly blunt statement, but the more nuanced 'try to engage with information deeply, think through multi-step reasoning cascades on your own, integrate different sources of information and transfer them to new domains' really doesn't land in the same way.
They were not so aligned until the 20th-century when Jews from all communities mixed again. I am not disputing that Jewish practices today and for the last two millennia are connected to practices in Judea at the turn of the first millennium and to texts that had been written even earlier. What I'm saying is that strict and regulated adherence by large parts of the population came relatively late. That, as far as I can tell from the research, is not at all controversial.
