It doesn’t sound like they are referring to newborns needing to be physically present to get a SSN. Instead, it seems to refer to persons who are registering to start receiving their Social Security benefits (or existing recipients who want to change their direct deposit information). Also, there is an existing supported method for identifying yourself electronically that is mentioned in the article. In that sense, the headline seems a bit misleading.
That's already more thought than DOGE has put into implementing these boneheaded cuts.

Agreed.
From a modern society's logistic point of view, marriage is not a religious arrangement. It is the recognization of a contract entered into by 2 parties which will dictate myriad events in the future, especially regarding property/child/estate/healthcare/etc disputes.

Neither me nor my wife are religious, but pooling our assets together and having children together means we are now intertwined to the level that third parties may need to intervene (in the event of a dispute or death or something) and it helps sort that out more easily.
It was the first decentralized blockchain. It solved the double spending problem in the absence of a centralized authority (aka solution to the Byzantine Generals' Problem). By the way, the term "blockchain" gained popularity years after Bitcoin's release.

Bitcoin has changed very little since its inception. A Bitcoin Core release from a decade ago still works fine today, and how "bitcoiners" feel about Bitcoin on a psychological level is irrelevant to any technical discussion about decentralization (btw, "bitcoiners" are not a homogenous group).

Moreover, your last sentence is so incoherent that it’s hard to even formulate a rebuttal. There is no "centralized source of truth," no "centralized authority," and no risk of a "catastrophic fork."

No offense but I don’t understand why people with such limited knowledge of Bitcoin feel compelled to comment in these threads.
He is specifically talking about accessories, in this case the watches. including apple watches and 3rd party. if apple watches integrate natively, but 3rd party watches don't have the same level of integration then there is no way in the apple ecosystem to make a comparative decision on which watch you want to use as you're automatically funneled into apple watches by design. Now on android, most watches integrate pretty much the same. maybe a different on phone app, but, most APIs are pretty accessible between all devices. (I might be wrong about this)
What if there is only an illusion of choice? The article nicely argues about the advantages and drawbacks of a lifestyle centered around collecting experiences. And that way, experience is presented as the alternative to getting married early. But as one of the examples in the article so eloquently points out, marriage might not be among the options offered to you. If your character is too annoying, you'll be shown the door (called One Man's Thrash in the article). If the guys that you would marry don't want to marry you, then "collecting experiences" is your only choice. Which would turn the question into: do you regret having an unpleasant character when you were young?

> ... uncopyrightable works you create ..

But there's the rub, right? If "you create" it, then it is copyrightable - so what is it that is this act of creation?

As posed elsewhere in this thread mentioned, how come taking out my phone and pressing the camera button with no authorial intent whatsoever is considered to be creative, whereas setting up a camera in a particular location and fully determining its settings, but letting an animal depress the button is considered to not be creative?

Part of the reason that this is on my mind is that I recently watched "Flash of Genius" [0] and found the legal arguments there about what merits an invention versus being obvious entirely silly. Essentially the movie (and my experience) shows that it all boils down to who has more time and money to spend on the legal system. I'm not saying that I have a clear solution myself, but I would really love to have something that is more than just "I know it when I see it".

> Withdrawing properly received credentials opens the door to yet another extra-judicial punishment and we already have too many of those.

I don’t understand why this is even an option? So the degree is never truly owned by the recipient then if it can be withdrawn/ revoked? Just another reason not to invest time and money into it.
They have it very clearly written before you check out that you can receive a full refund anytime before it ships. You have to check a box saying you acknowledge this before completing your purchase.

I find what they’re doing very transparent from top to bottom. If you’re worried about it, don’t buy one. But if you’re worried they’re going to pull the rug out from under you, I don’t think you need to.
The median in the first chart is 53%. So not really. Apple is just seasonally high in Q4 presumably because iPhones make good Christmas presents. And still below 70%.
Btdt, except the kids. I had friends and mobility, so I crashed. I made friends hanging out downtown and picked up work doing all kinds of things. I ran audio at shows, painted houses, repaired TVs, recorded VO for commercials. Hole in the wall apartments could be had for $300/mo which was a week of work at practically minimum wage.

My tires were expensive and loved going flat, but I could service my car myself. Someone crushed in the door and fled, so I left it while I scrounged $500 over months for the replacement. Someone spilled beer in my external hard drive and I lost a decade of projects, photos, and source code. I broke my hand and never got it fixed (paying for that now that I can't pick up a jug of milk, play music or type with it without pain). Early on, I went back home to pick up some clothes, and my ex's new boyfriend had already moved in. Stuff sucked.

But people helped me, even when I didn't ask or want them to. I was a lot harder on myself than anyone else was, and that kept me from immediately fixing my situation until I hit what I thought was rock bottom and went to a doctor.

It sounds like you've already done the medical stuff, which is the most important part. If you're unhealthy, everything is harder. I think if you're able to talk about it and ask for help, it means you're a lot closer to what you want than you were. GL.

Note that if you do this then you will opt out of any security updates not just for jq but also for its regular expression parsing dependency onigurama. For example, there was a security update for onigurama previously; if this sort of thing happens again, you'd be vulnerable, and jq is often used to parse untrusted JSON.

Eh, that's not exactly how that would work, eh, hopefully.

You'd dump 1000 hours of video into the AI for example. The AI would say at hour 666 a crime may be being committed. You'd then view and present that chunk of video as evidence.

Thanks for sharing what's worked for you, OP. Some of these are very enriching strategies for when the grind feels insurmountable.

Some of them can also feed delusion or false signals - most people you talk to aren't going to outright tell you that your app sucks, for example.

Non-monetary signals can also be encouraging but misleading long-term. My last attempt at a solo SaaS was a financial data application that had a lot of built-in virality. People really liked it, traffic was growing, and I thought I was succeeding at "product-led growth."

But the monetizable parts of my app appealed to a completely different type of person than the viral parts. What's worse, the sales process for people willing to pay was also very different. I'd built a low-touch marketing funnel with "prosumer" pricing but needed a high-touch sales channel with few clients and a fat price tag!

It was a "pivot or die" moment and a tough pill to swallow as it was the first time I'd built a software project with lots of happy users. Those users just wouldn't pay me, and rather than burn another 6-12 months re-tooling the entire business, I killed it instead.

If you are not getting ANY traction whatsoever it may be time to move on. Please don't take this the wrong way, but I'm your target audience and I would not give you money for this. I might not even use your app, as a search engine could get me viable coworking locations and curated reviews faster and more accurately.

Maybe there is a path to success where coworking spaces themselves pay you for a listing and the remote workers themselves aren't your customers? But as they say, your paid solution has to be 10x better than any free competitor and in this case your free competitors are Google and Facebook.
Gentoo linux is essentially made specifically for people like this, to be able to optimize one’s own linux rig for one’s specific usecase.

After initial setup, it’s pretty simple and easy to use, I remember making a ton of friends at matrix’s Gentoo Linux channel, was fun times.

Fun fact, initial ChromeOS was basically just custom Gentoo Linux install, I’m not sure if they still use Gentoo Linux internally.

Even more obviously, in my language there are words "pizza", "kiwi", "de facto", "dystopia", "system", "terror", and they mean exactly the same thing as in english, but we pronounce them differently. And anyway, Romans pronounced "de facto" in yet another way, so it doesn't matter. Words get localised.
I think more important would be for me to have kids when younger - when you have more strength and stamina, a longer amount of time you can be with them and your grandchildren.

Of course the most important thing is to do it (marry & start a family) with the right person, otherwise your life can actually get much worse than previously.

Yeah, but while Apple might consider the hardware to be "untrusted", at some point I trust the hardware I bought. Apple telling me I cannot decide what devices are trusted or not is annoying.

-march=native + mimalloc (or jemalloc) should be sufficient without causing significant undefined behavior like -O3 or most extra optimization related compiler arguments.
This I believe is the root of enshittification.

VC/private equity requires growth levels that are unsustainable and the focus on that destroys the long term prospects of a lot of companies that otherwise would provide great value and support themselves.

So the ones that game marketing for revenue (badly developed or designed features, overselling, etc) win over those that provide real value.

Well, Apple will sure make sure the hard task is impossible. That's where the fault lies. It can be a bit tiring hearing security used as a smokescreen to maintain a monopolistic structure over uhh... green bubbles?
There are like 10 grandmas in my extended family (in-laws etc), none of them know their Apple ID passwords, none have recovery contacts. They probably forgot because it never asks for that password except when they want to download a free app, cause for some reason that's a highly sensitive thing.

To be precise, it sounds like they’ve been revoked until damages are paid back. This is no different from a diploma being revoked because your last tuition cheque bounced.

The Garmin experience on iOS is noticeably inferior for me.

On android, you can turn off forwarding notifications to the watch on a per-app basis, so for example I can have youtube put notifications into the android notification center, but not the watch.

On iOS, you can't configure which apps forward notifications to a garmin watch. You only get all or nothing. Apple watch can do this just fine.

Is that not an issue for you? Do you not feel hobbled by that?
Not sure what your point is. Nijjar was a terrorist linked to assassinations in Punjab and committed to destruction of India. A nation , democracy included, has a right to protect itself.
I feel like using units of rate (90% faster) and not units of time makes more sense here.

Plus, if you were using units of time, you wouldn’t use the word “faster.” “Takes 45% less time” and “45% faster” are very different assertions, but they both have meaning, both in programming and outside it.
It’s highly correlated with the SP500, so pretty much interchangeable.

If this is true, can some of your ideas be integrated into the standard libc allocator?
I think you're right. I think you could say the package (as in the code) is 45% faster or that the package increases parsing rate by 90%. But mixing the two is confusing.
It'd be nice to know how this compares to what we can run locally on today's "AI" optimized machines from Apple, Microsoft, etc.
They have always been part of the price.

In the past tariffs were implemented or modified with a long notice period so businesses could plan ahead.

Now they are being added or changed at the whim of a tantrum with no notice, so of course prices might need to also reflect that at short notice.
My experience was from the mid 2010s. So perhaps they went downhill?

I kind of agree - while I personally don't like to be treated like a dummy because I do feel like I know what I'm doing with tech, I wouldn't trust e.g. my parents with that power.

If Apple wants to be the brand for the tech illiterate that's fine—the real problem is that their hardware (and to a lesser extent some of their software) is actually a lot better than the competition, especially every since the M1 CPU came out.

So people like me and other HN denizens are left to hope that either some competitor actually becomes competitive; or Apple positions itself in such a way that they can simultaneously provide the "dummy mode" for dummies, and the "power mode" for people like me.

For the latter option, they clearly don't want to do it, probably not because they don't trust power users to do power user things; but because leaning on the dummies for cover helps them protect their walled garden.

Cue great frustration.
You are conflating two different types of profit.

Gross profit = sales or service revenue less the expenses directly related to producing that revenue (this does not include backoffice functions, R&D, rent, etc.)

Net profit, which is the total revenue of the business less all expenses of the business (so, this includes R&D, rent, and the "backoffice" like HR, finance, legal, etc.)

Larger businesses with multiple business segment may account for gross profit separately for each business segment, but the business only ever calculates one net profit item.

There's also unit profit, which is essentially gross profit but at the level of a single unit of goods or services (for services, a unit is usually a customer contract, for recurring services it would be each period of the contract). Unit profit is generally the revenue from that specific unit less the costs directly associated with producing that revenue. Most companies don't calculate unit profit as generally it's not meaningful unless you sell high-value items, like automobiles or planes.
I used to think only proposal for quantum supremacy on near future NISQ devices is random circuit sampling, for which I think "generate random numbers" is a fair summary.

That's an excellent point that hadn't crossed my mind. When I hear people discussing 'zionism' it never occurs to me they might be thinking of evangelical zionists. In my neck of the woods, where evangelicals have no presence at all, they probably aren't. In the South, they may well be.

Edit: this kills me to say, because the way people discuss 'zionism' still creeps me out, but my argument was wrong. Since there is a substantial number of evangelical zionists, you were right to say jewish and zionist shouldn't be conflated.
I agree with chrisweekly, it's not even close. WeWork provided value to people by assuming some risk in signing those longer term lease agreements and repackaging it to people looking for shorter term office space or to those who would otherwise not want to enter into a commercial office lease themselves. I don't think OP is really offering any value add over a quick search for "coworking <city>" and I imagine that's why nobody is signing up. Personally, I find that even a free SaaS subscription is a liability these days so the value add needs to be highly compelling.

Regardless of whether the developers of PeerTube intend for their work to be widely used and successful, it doesn’t refute the argument that “if this software/platform/service is to be successful and widely used, it needs more marketing and/or funding and/or clearer UI/UX”. If they’re not doing that, then they are either unable or unwilling to. But that’s a separate issue.
