The ATM bit is just because we already have a system of safe terminals all over every country that are used to deal with personal data on the daily. It doesn't have to use a bank card per se. The idea is just to provide options outside of PC/phone login though even grandma has an Android nowadays.

The solution to the mood based polling is the "should the vote not be corrected over Y time". Y can be determined depending on what gov can handle but is it really mood voting if you get voted in, a year later you've not been in the lead position for over Y time (say 3 months) and you get replaced by the new favorite?
Show HN: Kindredly.ai – a content-sharing tool for families
Hi HN,

I built Kindredly.AI, a private content-management/sharing platform designed for families. It’s accessible as a browser extension so storing, organizing, and sharing content (links, notes, images, small videos, etc.) is about as easy as using bookmarks. It also includes parental controls for families with kids and a growing curated online library.

Why I Built It:

I wanted a lightweight way to save things I found interesting (like many of the things I’ve found here on HN) and sometimes share them with my family, including my young kids. Whatever the solution, I didn’t want to expose my kids to a constant stream of addictive content and ads.

Most content-filtering solutions aren’t good enough—they don't flag "junk" as inappropriate, and most whitelist tools are a pain to maintain. After struggling to get a hodgepodge of apps working, I realized the world needs a tool that’s free and simple enough for a busy single parent to use.

It should respect privacy and help parents raise thoughtful, curious, critical thinkers who are prepared for a world constantly trying to grab your attention, your money, or influence your thinking. It should give kids a safe space to explore (even if they can't spell or type) with restrictions that evolve as they mature. It should be so great they want to keep using it even as adults.

Kindredly aims to be the best solution for families and individuals who care about privacy and want to regain control over their data.

Features:

- Private Family Posts – Share securely with only your family—your own private social network.
- Organized, Not Just Stored – A structured way to keep meaningful content.
- Parental Controls – Kids can only access approved content and sites via the Kindredly app or browser extension. Time limits included.
- YouTube, But Less Distracting – Hide comments, recommendations, and block some ads (for kids only).
- Curated Content - A growing library of family-friendly feeds in our public repository.
- Client-Side Encryption – Your private content stays private if you keep your keys off our server.
- Forever-Free Version – A solid free version will always be available.
- Self-Host Option – Run your own on-premise server if you prefer full control.

We’re working on more flexible parental controls for families with older kids, but Kindredly.AI is fully functional. I’d love more user feedback as it still needs refining. I'm also figuring out how to introduce it to more families.

I’d love to hear your thoughts—what’s missing? Would this be useful for your family? Any feedback is welcome!

Thanks!
You are licensing it or? We would, especially after this type of thing, again, be looking for something open.
Yeah this big time. I haven’t found a solution that makes sense. Larger models are already good enough and so convenient.

When it’s more feasible to do inference on the client (browser or desktop) I can see SLMs popping up more common in production.
So does this english person! That's the UK.
Sorry but BYD interior is kinda crap. Depends what you value of course. Features are there but if feels like cheap kitsch.

There are a lot of unknowns here, it may have been a contract paid at completion, or expected to be renewed as it was in discovery phase.
IMHO the biggest factor holding that back is how rushed and distanced these model releases are, still.

Both Phi-4-mini and Gemma 3 were released recently. Phi-4's damn close to a good, real, model release. Microsoft's done a great job of iterating.

Gemma 3's an excellent, intelligent, model, but it's got a gaping blind spot: tool-calling / JSON output. There was a vague quick handwave about it in some PR, a PM/eng on the Gemma team commented here in response to someone else that TL;DR "it's supported in Ollama!", which is Not Even Wrong, i.e. in the Pauli sense of the phrase.

- Ollama uses a weak, out of date llama.cpp thing where the output tokens are constrained to match a JSON schema. This falls apart almost immediately, i.e. as soon as there is more than one tool.

- The thing that matters isn't whether we can constrain output tokens, any model can do that, I've had Llama 3 1B making tool calls that way. The thing that matters is A) did you train that in and B) if you did, tell us the format

All that to say, IMHO we're still 6 months to a year out from BigCo understanding enough about their own stuff to even have a good base for it. Sure, tool calling and fine-tuning are orthogonal, in a sense, but in practice, if I'm interested in getting a specific type of output, odds are I wanted that formatted a specific way.
> I don’t use LatinX, but I don’t think it changes anything and it doesn’t bother me that other people do.

Surely it doesn't change anything for you, but I'm not complaining because absolutely no one got mad, people were furious, but unsure how to get angry at the Diversity stuff without getting cancelled.
Here's to another 20! As long as there are startup companies, and programmers congregate to share their projects and advice, and fresh CS grads don't immediately disappear into the endless cubicle farms of Fortune 500 companies, there will be a need for Hacker News.
"regime" just means government. You are taking common associations and turning them into hard and fast rules when they aren't. "Biden regime" was a completely accurate (and frequently used) description of the last administration (and almost every other preceding administration).

As for your second sentence, while it is often dramatically overstated, I think that Trump having authoritarian tendencies is pretty obviously true. The extent to which he has successfully instantiated those tendencies is up for considerable debate. I think the answer is probably not "not at all".

In case it needs to be said, I think that almost every modern presidency has, (to quite varying extents) had some amount of authoritarian tendencies, in the sense that they have all sought to increase the unchecked power of the executive branch at the expense of both the other two branches, and the rights of the populace. I think Trump would, were he able, pretty dramatically extend this trend, but he won't have started it, and it remains to be seen how much farther he succeeds at going than other recent presidents.

Yes. But it can more reasonably force the company to retain the employees of said project, and move them to other projects instead of firing them.
As someone who moved to Norway. The only thing that's strange to me about the length of day/night... Is that we do daylight savings here.

Why? What help does it make adding one extra hour to the start of the day, when the day lasts like ~4 hours.
> And I've always found the argument that "more intelligent/sentient creatures deserve more protection and rights" to be basically a post hoc defense against cannibalism.

It's not some veiled aversion to cannibalism, it's because humans have empathy for other humans, and our empathy for non-humans scales with how human-like we perceive those animals to be. If someone sees intelligence as a defining trait of humanity, then they're likely to empathize with animals that display great intelligence. And if you empathize with the animal, you're more likely to be sensitive to its perceived suffering.
Not sure if I'm ready to buy into the "be afraid" mentality yet.

But what articles like this often seem to just completely gloss over is that while, yes, AI might not today be the force that makes every single short-story writer redundant, tech like this seldom goes backwards in capability and instead tends to get better... Cumulative small improvements for, say, 10-15 years does wonders, like the advent of the Internet showed.
> I cant think of how slapping a union on top of an already unstable foundation is going to solve anything

You mean like the entire television and film industry? Any production over a certain (small) size is completely unionized. It's so massively successful the American cultural exports dominate in almost every corner of the world.

I'm not sure where the idea that unions can't work for the games industry comes from since it's almost identical to the film and TV industry. Unions exist so workers don't get exploited and to provide stability.

What about Nintendo? They famously have very limited layoffs. They see value in providing stability and maintaing culture and institutional memory.

If anything, it's short-term profit-seeking that destroys industries. You see this in the world of original content production for streamers. They cut the size of writers rooms. They tried to no longer have writers on set. There's a push for "mini writing rooms". Why? Because it cuts costs on a very short term basis.

In doing so, Netflix (etc) are intentionally throwing away the model that created billion dollar properties like Friends, Seinfeld, ER, MASH, Cheers, etc that, to this day, generate massive profits. Seinfeld was known for getting over a million viewers when it was running in syndication.

Long-term it creates problems. Future products and showrunners are writers who need to get experience on set. Shortsighted cost-reudction is literally killing the future of the industry.

As for the price of video games, there are several aspects to this:

1. AAA publishers like to complain that games still cost $60 after years. That's true but also the distribution is significantly higher than it was 20 years ago. You're selling way more games;

2. The marginal cost of producing a game via download is essentially zero; and

3. Games eventaully get much cheaper on Steam. That's a good thing. Early experiments with this showed that selling a game cheap on Steam could generate significantly more revenue than the original release. And because the marginal cost is zero, it's all profit.
Good question, we designed a system that looks across the image and chooses which parts of the image to be preserved and which to be changed. And, if a region is selected to change, how should it be changed.

This is all done autonomously and the decision-maker is an agent.
Oh man that's nowhere near fair! ripgrep is one tiny little command that is mostly compatible with GNU grep. Lots of the flags are the same. And its default usage is really easy: `rg whatever`.

But I gave it ten minutes and ported part of https://github.com/BurntSushi/dotfiles/blob/bedf3598f2501ad5... to https://github.com/BurntSushi/dotfiles/blob/bedf3598f2501ad5...

Not much, but it took me some time to get the basics down.

One thing that stood out to me was that startup times are kinda brutal. I'm not sure if that's intended or if it's something about my environment:

$ cat /tmp/murex-test
#!/usr/bin/murex

echo $ARGV
$ time /tmp/murex-test
[
"/usr/bin/murex",
"/tmp/murex-test"
]

real 0.437
user 0.491
sys 0.110
maxmem 106 MB
faults 0

$ murex --version
murex v6.4.2063 (develop)
GPL v2
2018-2025 Laurence Morgan

That would probably be a deal breaker for me.

I got murex through the AUR: https://aur.archlinux.org/packages/murex

Okay then I'd say this is high contrast with your comments above!
You tell me, since you can't infer the rest of the discussion.

That is the space

The performance matters much less than the UI

And the UI sucks because if you know what your doing you can type a command

But the people who write the cheques do not know that, and equate UI with GUI

I think the point that the person you are responding to was trying to make is different - there is no way to actually test any of this, so it could just be all bullshit and no one could really tell.

Real estate is very illiquid - and ‘valuations are high, but the market is grinding to a half because demand is dying due to increased borrowing costs’ is exactly when it is nearly impossible to get out.

ERG groups provide mentorship and support. The assumption that all white people, males or in this case Swiss don’t need support or get it automatically is plain wrong.
As I understood their arguments it was not about the effort needed to rewrite the project.

Yeah, I see billboards all over for fast same-day water heater replacement. I wondered WTF they were advertising such an easy job all of the time, every company. It's because they are charging people thousands of dollars to roll in a new water heater. Quick, easy, barely any skills required. Apparently no one can handle it.

Mine runs on gas and used to be soldered directly into the plumbing . Last time it went out I converted everything so that anyone with an adjustable wrench could do the job in 15 minutes. $500, new water heater done. The hard part is going to pick it up from the hardware store.

I got my AC swapped out for $3000. Single post to Facebook was all it took to save $7000. Being helpless is expensive.
How do track errors with the AI? Is it up to me as a user to flag them or do you have a review process or have different models confirm the same outcome?
Ah, geo-politics meets technology. Imagine flying into a country, and the border guards tell you "Did you make this website? Well, the depiction of our country is a few pixels off, that offends us. Hands behind your back.".

Hello HN. I built a free, fully managed vibe coding platform that handles auth and payments through Stripe Connect. The platform is entirely free to use and takes a 10% fee from any revenue generated. There’s a live preview for each project where you can enter product requirements and feature requests in plain English and let the LLM powered backend handle the implementation for you. Subscriptions are optional and can be set in the project dashboard, and deploying will generate a public URL to share. Below are a few example of live apps I generated! This is still in beta but I think the progress so far is very promising. Would love some feedback from any vibe coders :)

Yea I get what you're saying. I think your global warming analogy is :chef's kiss:. I think AI has within it the looming artificial god. Buuut there's also a much shorter term risk that global warming doesn't have, which is that you might just not be able to do work that anyone will be willing to pay for starting about 2 years from now if you are an artist, or designer, or internet blog author that isn't famous, computer programmer? We don't know, but a lot of people will no longer be able to sell their labor that can right now. A lot of people will have to find a new niche for themselves and they probably are quite comfortable in their current niche, and they worked hard to make it for themselves.
Yeah there’s lots of cargo culting FUD like that that happens (see other posters in this thread that claim that glibc is a more stable allocator )
Wolfram's problem is mindset IMO. There's a certain kind of highly intelligent mind, but because of fame, money, habit or personality, makes them intellectually lazy. Instead of doing the proofs, research, careful discussion and reconceptualizing that leads to useful theories and conclusion, they jump straight to the end, because they think they're smart. This produces some impressive sounding theory, but which upon closer inspection proves to be to be too vague to actually be testable, if not contain outright errors. People I put in this group including Wolfram and his computational theories, Langan and his Cognitive Theoretical model of the Universe, and the Italian school of algebraic geometry. There's a kind of interesting perception here. A reasonable person thinks one who makes correct theories is an intelligent man. Others think they are intelligent, so therefore their theories are correct.

Huh? Capital doesn't have agency.

People either follow laws or break them.

The argument against crypto is that it's primarily a tool for breaking the law.

Joe has no idea what "registered" means in this context.
Well, they knew it was tied to sailing, long voyages, and diet.

Scurvy became a problem with the age of sail, and even in the 1500's sailors were recommending citrus, making pine needle teas, and similar efforts.

I think it is amazing that people figured out how to treat and prevent scurvy without a functional understanding of biology, and 300 years before Vitim C was discovered.

I think the fact that they DID figure it out supports the theory more than a couple hundred year delay undermines it.

How many tens of thousands of years did people have to figure it out?

I'm not sure how many pigs have had their intelligence evaluated. Most outliers probably go unnoticed. The experimental evidence seems to indicate that pigs are probably smarter than dogs.

Let me take a wild guess that they don't not have a group for former poor people?

Recently I've been writing a resume/hire-me website. I'm not a stellar writer, but I'm alright, so I've been asking various LLMs to review it by just dropping the HTML file in.

Every single one has completely ignored the "Welcome to nginx!" Header at the top of the page. I'd left it in half as a joke to amuse myself but I expected it would get some kind of reaction from the LLMs, even if just a "it seems you may have forgotten this line"

Kinda weird. I even tried guiding them into seeing it without explicitly mentioning it and I could not get a response.
That isn't true. ripgrep will happily pass through data it gets as-is. It just itself doesn't support locales. Commands do not need to have locale support to be used in shell pipelines. `rg foo | rg -v bar` is an example that has nothing to do with locales but demonstrates that ripgrep can be used in shell pipelines.
The Java example doesn't really compile due to generic arrays and mixing primitives and non-primitives, but the point still holds.

Type erasure is still type checked though, it's just lost at runtime (i.e. the generics are not reified).

This works for Java very well because the JIT will have another chance at further optimizations once the application runs.
Yes, sorry, of course you meant that aspect. But the term remains too slippery, too far away from its real content - as can be apparent already in the stats you mention: first of all they are about a public expression, which are reasonably lower in some demographics for more reasons, and secondly they conflate very different phenomena (such as a very ambiguous idea of attributed "importance" vs the subscription to some dogmatic details).

There are also other reasons why you see different behaviours in doctors and nurses: already linguistically, the "nurse" "nourishes", the "doctor" remains the "learned" - one has a direct rapport, the other detached, out of the basic role construed. It just follows that the nurse more probably consoles and the doctor more probably communicates flatly.
