Consider that this is the point of all the machinations. The US having the reserve currency is a liability in many ways and the direct reason why it's a consumer not producer economy.

Losing reserve status will be damaging to some parts of the american economy and create a boom in others.

I agree with the other comment. Ignore them all, go with the fundamentals. Heck, ask chatgpt what do they think are the fundamental ideas in computer science and go from there. Look for classic books written on those subjects. There have been plenty of smart people around the sw field who took years of their lives to write succint and valuable technical books! Use them! Ignore the poison-mixers who probably didn't write a single line of code in their whole life!

Go for a decent text editor, learn how to type! It's incredible how we use ai tools to write code for us but some don't know how to actually write themselves! Again, look it up, there are plenty of resources out there. If in doubt, search for said resources here on hn. If still in doubt, ask chatgpt what does the hn community recommend for x or y.
Is no one concerned about LLMs just feeding people SEO ads as content?
You'd have to do some contortions on the current definition of "democracy" for that to be true. For most of it's history, not everyone could vote, and if that's your bar then democracy in the US is... returning to it's roots.

Absolutely. Canada is almost certainly going to cancel or severely limit a pending F35 order, and is actively sourcing aircraft and negotiating mutual arms deals with European partners.
Being from southern Ontario near Toronto, I naturally can't even imagine going that way ;-)
I think "annexing" Canada seems a bit ludicrous still. I have no doubt Trump wants to expand, but I suspect such expansion would be deeply unpopular in a country proud, seemingly for the grace of simply not being the US (as, let's be honest, Canada is far more similar to the US than it is to any other country in north america).

With respect, you almost certainly stopped paying attention for much longer than six months. yarn v2 was a significant rewrite that was released five years ago and a lot of Yarn projects either never upgraded or just switched back to npm (because npm eventually addressed most of the major reasons that yarn was better than npm).

Not reasonable.

I'm surprised to hear someone say that, given that it's the fact about Mach to me. I'm not sure how people could know about Mach but not its defining system.

As one emergent phenomena of initial conditions to another, allow me to say 'hi'. Hi.
At a previous job, the frontend was a ClojureScript codebase dating back to around 2013, with a React-based UI. The codebase survived a decade of major upgrades to ClojureScript and React, and many chunks of code in git blame dated back to 2013 - 2014. For reference, ClojureScript's first public release was in 2011, and the React wrapper the codebase used dates back to December 2013.

I think the strong focus on backwards compatibility is what helped ClojureScript (and CLJS libraries we used) stay largely unchanged, but we had plenty of "React code" that wasn't changed at all between 2013 and 2022 since it met business requirements and "just worked".

Unfortunately, I don't work there anymore, but I don't see why it'd be impossible to build the early version of that frontend today. Recently, I've been using TypeScript for frontend, and the codebase is still surviving major upgrades to React, TypeScript, and the various libraries we use.

However, I will admit that the pace at which libraries release is extremely fast compared to other ecosystems I'm familiar with (Clojure, Java, Rust, etc.).

Yes.

* The US is able to get very cheap loans, which enables the US to throw around money when necessary to do things that are important (emergency projects, economic stabilization, etc).

* The US has an extraordinary power to influence global politics due to their ability to control trade and banking systems.

* The US dollar is stable in part because of its status as a trade currency. And a stable currency is extremely important for citizens of a country.

> Because it enables us to run unsustainable deficits?

No, it it actually the primary reason that enables the US to run huge deficits sustainably. The currency is important enough to the world that giving a loan to the US is safer than giving one to another country whose currency is not as important.

What was the web like before wide spread internet ads, auth, and search engines?

Did all those old sites have “business models”? What did the web feel like back then?

(This is rhetorical - I had niche hobby sites back then, in the same way some people put out free zines, and wouldn’t give a damn about today’s AI agents so long as they were respectful.

The web was better back then, and I believe AI slop and agents brings us closer to full circle)

Thats a good way to approach it, essentially customise your view of HN.

Well we've only been a true "liberal democracy" for the past sixty years or so. Before that we were a de-facto apartheid state. Maybe at a stretch you could say 105 years if you go by the 19th amendment. And frankly i'm still skittish to call America pre-Trump a democracy with my full chest given the electoral college, completely bonkers division of the country into states, the senate, complete lack of a right to vote, our continual human rights abuses in terms of poverty and imprisonment/executions, etc etc.

I'm just saying there's literally dozens and dozens of countries with far more obvious realization of democratic ideals than we've ever managed to figure out, and at this point our age and blind devotion to dead assholes ("founding fathers") are major barriers to any sort of movement forward.

Why doesn't it feed through to the price of food? Of vehicles? Of energy?

It only feeds through to the price of certain classes of goods: housing, healthcare, education.

Those are also "markets" that are artificially supply-constrained, through zoning, the AMA, and accreditation.

To be clear, I'm not saying that we should get rid of zoning, the AMA, and accreditation—but we should be much more careful to avoid use of those tools to curb supply.

It's not a slippery slope and if it was, you are at the bottom. It's more of a cliff and you already walked right off. ICE is kidnapping lawful residents and disappearing them to slave camps in the third world. Rogue U.S. Marshals deputies are occupying the premises of private businesses. The Secretary of Commerce is telling the public to buy shares of Tesla, on live TV. Reality has already hit bottom. If it feels like a slope, that is the unwillingness of people to admit it.
I guess I'd ask you to define "democracy" first, as for me it would at least include that all citizens are allowed and realistically can vote. It took until 1920 for women to be able to vote, and it wasn't until 1965 every citizen realistically could vote. I don't think in that case it would come close to being the "oldest country with a continuously running democracy".
God... I literally just coded up three different honeypots for this exact problem on my site, https://golfcourse.wiki, because LLM scrapers are a constant problem. I added a stupid recaptcha to the sign up form after literally 10,000 fake users were created by bots, averaging about 50 per day, and I have to say, recaptcha was suprisingly cumbersome to set up.

It's awful and it was costing me non-trivial amounts of money just from the constant pinging at all hours, for thousands of pages that absolutely do not need to be scraped. Which is just insane, because I actively design robots.txt to direct the robots to the correct pages to scrape.

So far so good with the honeypots, but I'll probably be creating more and clamping down harder on robots.txt to simply whitelist instead of blacklist. I'm thinking of even throwing in a robots honeypot directly in sitemap.xml that should bait robots to visit when they're not following the robots.txt.

It's really, really ridiculous.
This has been the most amazing thing about ClojureScript - finding libraries that are 10+ years old without an update still work perfectly. Using reagent and over time learning more and more of the internals (instead of the runaway treadmill in js land).

I do miss some of the dynamism of the JS ecosystem from time to time but it’s really nice to step off the proverbial treadmill.
In addition to the various obstacles this creates for disabled or rural people, I expect this will create a lot of phishing opportunities. The commercial banks struggle a lot with that and they’re not constrained by post-DOGE budgets.
What evidence are you referring to? I've seen AI firms desperate for relevance and the next advance implying that thinking is going on and talking about it a lot in those terms, but no actual evidence of it.

I wouldn't say zero intelligence, but I wouldn't describe such systems as intelligent, I think it misrepresents them, they do as you say have a good depth of knowledge and are spectacular at reproducing a simulacrum of human interactions and creations, but they have been a lesson for many of us that token manipulation is not where intelligence resides.

Scrapers still have an economic incentive to do what is easiest. Providing an alternative that is easier than fighting sysadmin blocks would likely cause them to take the easier route and make it less of a cat and mouse game for sysadmins.
But that sounds bad! Why should we be borrowing all this money from foreigners when we’re a rich country? What if I want the U.S. to build stuff, instead of moving money around and trying to “influence global politics.”

I’d also love a sane domestic politics that acknowledges that borrowing money from foreigners every year because we can’t square our spending with our taxing is a bad thing.

Not really sure that's relevant. Grift implies an intentional value extraction without providing anything. Using your example: I'm confident that the time spent working on remix and courses related to it resulted in far less monetary gain than spinning out courses on React. If you think Remix is misguided or a bad framework etc... that is very different from grifting. A corollary: Is Deno a grift because it shares the same creator as Node and has a paid product attached to it? In my opinion no but you might disagree... I'm mostly opposed to the idea remix in particular exists purely as a grift - love it or hate it there are far easier ways for someone with the influence of Kent to make money.
> With web search, Claude has access to the latest events and information, boosting its accuracy on tasks that benefit from the most recent data.

I'm surprised that they only expect performance to improve for tasks involving recent information. I thought it was widely accepted that using an LLM to extract information from a document is much more reliable than asking it to recall information it was trained on. In particular, it is supposed to lead to fewer instances of inventing facts out of thin air. Is my understanding out of date?
Hey, I'm Jeff and I was PM for these models at OpenAI. Today we launched three new state-of-the-art audio models. Two speech-to-text models—outperforming Whisper. A new TTS model—you can instruct it how to speak (try it on openai.fm!). And our Agents SDK now supports audio, making it easy to turn text agents into voice agents. We think you'll really like these models. Let me know if you have any questions here!
Full franchise democracy in the US is arguably younger than living memory. So are a lot of things we take for granted as civil rights (and some of powers that be seem determined to roll those back).

But even assuming the premise, it’s not hard to see how generations who’ve enjoyed a privilege might be more likely to take it for granted than societies that have more recently gained it, and are within living memory of fascism in power (or in neighboring states).

This is strange to hear because I switched over to SwiftUI/Native from web-based(react native) because I was so frustrated with the JS UI ecosystem. I would be stuck for a long time from conflicting package dependencies after updating/adding a new library. JS seems like the only ecosystem where adding a few simple libraries results in hundreds of added packages.

It's fascinating to me that people have a mis-conception that Google are universally more open about these features, and therefore things will be easy for Apple. I do think they're more open, but the equivalent features are absolutely not "just standardized protocols" on the Google side. Because they're hard engineering problems to make into open protocols!

* Bluetooth auto-pairing: Google Fast Pair is a "regulated standard" type interoperability where Google act as a regulatory body and there's extensive certification testing.

* AirDrop: Samsung Quick Share (totally proprietary) got combined into Google Quick Share which is semi-proprietary: the protocol documentation isn't open, and there's no first-party MacOS or Linux client support, only reverse engineered stuff - just like AirDrop! But, pieces are hiding in the Chromium source tree and an unofficial Google project called "nearby." Actually, the state of this is really strange to me, honestly; Google try to claim it's both not a Google product and a flagship Android feature at the same time.

* AirPlay: Not really, Google Cast supports more devices so people feel it's more open, but it works the same way as AirPlay - for access as a device sink, you enter a "business agreement" with Google and get a blob and a certificate, or reverse engineer it.

* Device handoff: I don't know of anyone else who has as extensive an out-of-band device-state signaling system as Apple. Microsoft Phone Link tries but Android doesn't really expose some features at a low enough level for it to be 1:1 with what Apple have done either. There is again, notionally, some aspect of this in "Google Nearby Presence," which is in this not-a-Google-product Google product superposition.

* Notifications and background tasks. In this space Android is definitely and provably more interoperable, at the cost that background tasks can spam you and wreak havoc on your device. This will be the hardest thing for Apple IMO; right now, their internal background task and notification sync capability revolves around internal trust and QA, and to expose it externally without degrading user experience will require quite a bit of engineering lift IMO.

Zillow, OpenDoor, Redfin, and Realtor.com all pay for API access to the largest Multiple Listing Systems (except for Realtor because they are the ones that are selling the access).

They then use their own “special” algorithms to give their price estimate based on “relevant” factors by what you are describing.

Your real issue is that the agents putting these homes on the market have a financial stake in it selling, and own copyright to all the pictures and descriptions of their listings. So you have more liability if you are scraping their info.

Another issue is who is the target audience for this? Most serious homebuyers are going to use an agent or a trusted partner for a transaction, and are not excited about compounding layers of hurdles to purchase a home
