There is a better way that I'm using:

1. Cursor Pro with Sonnet to implement things the Cursor way.

2. Install the Gemini Code extension in Cursor.

3. Install the Gemini Coder Connector Chrome extension: https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/gemini-coder-connec...

4. Get the free aistudio.google.com Gemini API and connect the extensions.

5. Feed your codebase or select files via the Cursor extension and get the implementation from aistudio.google.com.

I prefer having Sonnet implement it via Cursor rather than Gemini because it can automatically go through all the linting/testing loops without my extra input, run the server, and check if there are no errors.
Before the shift ban, there could be 3 players on one side of 2nd base. The rule now is that there have to be two fielders on either side on 2nd when the pitch is delivered. Essentially, they changed the legal zone
I think the language probably assumes some knowledge specific to that ecosystem, particularly the more recent trend of server rendering react.

To someone that works with more traditional server rendering frameworks like Rails and Phoenix, embedded to me implies storage will be clientside.

I'm guessing it might makesense to a frontend developer but people like me might be scratching our heads for awhile.

I'm assuming this is an alternative to using nextjs (or whatever flavor) with an orm. There's a lot of word salad in the why? that kind of suggests that. Maybe you can simply compare alternatives?

At least the 5 1/4 disks did. 3 1/2 disks did not like it at all. As long as you didn't crease anything the 5 1/4s would usually still work. The data wasn't especially dense on those (if you could see magnetic fields the patches would have been large enough to be visible to the naked eye) so the could take some abuse. At least until the magnetic coating started flaking off.
HN requires the article title remain the same where possible.
Just to add a bit more credence to this post, I'd point to Thomas Sowell's "The Vision of the Anointed" which is 30 years old and discusses the intrusion of the federal government in shaping culture from the perspective of the right over many decades.

I've noticed that left leaning individuals tend to view their philosophies as neutral and when the federal government exerts its power in continuance of these philosophies it is viewed as a neutral application of the constitution. The right currently sees what they are doing in exactly the same way, a neutral application of the constitution.

I actually think we have two conflicting constitutions at this point. The rigid written one we are all familiar with, and a more flexible unwritten one that is based on precedent, regulation, and legislation. The right tends to prefer the former, the left the latter. As an example I think Roe v. Wade, ended up being a part of this unwritten constitution which conflicted with the written constitution. You then saw this culminate in the Dobbs decision where the left thinks a right has been taken away and the right thinks it was never a right according to the constitution.

When you say "vibe code" do you mean the true definition of that term, which is to blindly accept any code generated by the AI, see if it works (maybe agent mode does this) and move on to the next feature? Or do you mean prompt driven development, where although you are basically writing none of the code, you are still reading every line and maintain high involvement in the code base?

A web page is an Application/Human Interface. Outside of security concerns, companies can make more money if they control the Application/Human Interface, and reduce the risk of a middleman / broker extorting them for margins.

If I run a flight aggregator that has a majority of flight bookings, I can start charging 'rents' by allowing featured/sponsored listings to be promoted above the 'best' result, leading to a prisoner's dilemma where airlines should pay up to their margins to keep market share.

If an AI company becomes the default application human interface, they can do the same thing. Pay OpenAI tribute or be ended as a going concern.
Not entirely true, they did consider that possibility, and their solution was the electoral college: the only reason for its existence is as a safeguard against installing a populist president that would corrupt the system.

If you like Velveeta I guess. I can't stand it and prefer to use whatever melty cheese I have on hand.

I always have cream and some kind of melty cheese. Buying Velveeta would be a specific purchase, for me, rather than hmm what can I make with what I have.
I somewhat agree. I think for tangible things (cars), you don't need to reinvent the wheel. But, tech moves fast. If a superior tech (for instance, more secure) is available but requires some discomfort (moving things around), then it is worth it to avoid this type of crap
I feel this situation is similar to that of Jacobellis v. Ohio in which Justice Potter Stewart could not define what hardcore pornography was, but he knew it when he saw it.

Theres 2nd order effects at play in this case that make it unique and unlike other ones. Even including other cases where there are acts of violence for what on the surface would seem like similar reasons.

Therefore no I don't think you can extrapolate this into broader politically motivated violence and/or forms of despair. This case is sufficiently unique in its context and should be viewed as such.

Folks are free to disagree, that is how I feel about it though.

And as for the accused, I will not try and speak for the accused, as its not my place to.
I wonder if it would be possible to create an AI image/video editor very much like blender or photoshop - where you get to drag objects around, perhaps based on a transformer(?) model, where each token(s) encode an object similarly how a 3D game engine encodes a game object - like latent vectors matrix rows that correspond to position in world space, size, texture, etc.

The 'renderer' would be a neural net that would take this soup of tokens, and resolve it to a 2d frame.

The underlying logic engine would be a human one - or perhaps a traditional video game engine, that emits the tokens from which the context can be built up and decoded into an image.

Show HN: ʻŌlelo Honua v3.1.2 – Automating internationalization
Show HN: ʻŌlelo Honua v3.1.2 – Automating i18n for Multilingual Apps

Hey HN! I’m excited to share ʻŌlelo Honua v3.1.2, a tool built to take the pain out of internationalization (i18n) for multilingual websites and apps. If you’ve ever wrestled with messy translation files or clunky i18n workflows, this might be just what you need.

Since the early alpha, beta, and RC releases, tons has improved—thanks in large part to the amazing feedback from the HN community!

Previous Show HNs:
https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43474837
https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=43365955

What is ʻŌlelo Honua?
ʻŌlelo Honua (Hawaiian for "World Language" or "Language Bridge") automates and simplifies i18n by handling translation file generation and synchronization. It taps into OpenRouter, Google Translate, and new models like DeepSeek to provide LLM-powered translations—and even generates critiques so devs or translators can do quick sanity checks.

Bonus: It’s free, and even works with Shopify!

Why I Built This
As a developer, I found i18n to be a frustrating afterthought—time-consuming, error-prone, and often deprioritized. Existing tools didn’t quite solve the problem, so I built ʻŌlelo Honua to make i18n painless and accessible for everyone.

Huge Thanks to HN
This project has come a long way, largely due to the incredible feedback and insights from this community. I’ve completely rewritten it based on your input, and I truly appreciate it. Would love to hear your thoughts—feedback, ideas, or anything else!

They are relying on more than the First Amendment. They're relying on the 4th, 5th, and 14th as well. And, in extremis, the 22nd.

If you're suggesting that they rely on the Second... well, that's a lot to ask. I'm not saying you're wrong, if indeed all those amendments do fail, especially that last. But I think most people would rather the save the "fourth box" for last.

Skill and pretentiousness are independent variables. Assuming that one is correlated with the other is a sign of poor judgement. I know people that fit would fit in each of the four quadrants {skillful-pretentious, unskilled-pretentious, skillful-humble, unskilled-humble}.

Anecdotally cooks are not usually pretentious - perhaps in your circles or in your city things are different? Personally I've got little time for pretentious people.

You can deny the reality of other people all you like. A more open-minded scientific approach is to listen to other people's experiences. People have some weird skills. And they believe some weird things. But yeah, it is hard to truly judge the skills of others.

> Maybe it would be more feasible with some capability-based kernel, but you'd inherently have a lot of logic around user accounts, privileges, and queries. You end up involving the kernel in what is row-level database security. That adds a lot of complexity to the kernel, which also makes the isolation itself have more of the attack surface.

Microkernels/exokernels sacrificing some performance to bring reliable kernels that allow for reliable userspace.
Most of you won't read the past the headline but this isn't accurate

>The agency said there is an "asymmetry" in which user consent for Apple's own data collection is obtained with a single pop-up, but other publishers are "required to obtain double consent from users for tracking on third-party sites and applications." The press release notes that "while advertising tracking only needs to be refused once, the user must always confirm their consent a second time."

They take issue with Apple making it easier for their apps but applying a different standard for third parties. I think this fine is fair.
Not just the cost of building it - though that is significant, but also cost as in the needed energy. Wind Resistance goes up by square of speed and so running high speed at ground level is cost (and environment) prohibitive. There is one other cost - acceleration time - no amount of money could get NYC subways to that speed - the next stop arrives before you get up to speed.

It makes more sense to focus our money on slower speed trains that are still fast enough and use much less energy.
size_t has been in the C standard since C89. "for (int i = 0..." might have it's uses so it doesn't make sense to disallow it. But I'd argue that it's not really a common textbook way to iterate over an array.
The social plane is built upon the physical. What an out of touch, privileged, insulated attitude, having them the other way around.
> I have also seen many people refusing to learn modern tools

One of the reasons I prefer NetBSD (and the BSDs in general) is that they don't change gratuitously. The ifconfig / ip example you use is good: Why? If we look at the reasoning given, it was that they didn't want to make big changes to ifconfig, so they made a whole new set of commands, even though the BSDs have extended ifconfig many times.

So that ends up meaning that how-tos just don't work any more. Imagine if you want to write a how-to these days where you're telling people how to do something using standard ifconfig and now also need to add ip. This is how you do DNS on standard Unix(like) systems, and now you have to explain multiple iterations of systemd. This is how you add software, but now you need to have separate instructions for apt, yum, dpkg.

Having administered Ubuntu for others, even going from version 18 to 20 or 22 means that how-tos no longer work, scripts need to be modified, systemd handling has to be updated, et cetera.

This is why I will always choose a BSD if given a chance. Pointing to a less messy Linux (like Void because it doesn't use systemd) isn't good enough when clean, well thought out systems already exist.
Ignition! is highly recommended.
That would obviously be excessive. Mistakes do happen, even when it's Russia.

If the models are really wrong in a fundamental way and this can't be fixed by some tweaks in the free parameters (and this is a BIG if), then it's hard to predict what the consequences might be: the model is wrong, in a way that hasn't been extensively studied. How different a correct model might be is hard to predict.
The training set is huge and model "forgets" some of the stuff, providing docs in context makes sense, plus docs could be up to date comparing to training set.

I appreciate the distinction between agents and workflows - this seems to be commonly overlooked and in my opinion helps ground people in reliability vs capability. Today (and in the near future) there's not going to be "one agent to rule them all", so these LLM workflows don't need to be incredibly capable. They just need to do what they're intended to do _reliably_ and nothing more.

I've started taking a very data engineering-centric approach to the problem where you treat an LLM as an API call as you would any other tool in a pipeline, and it's crazy (or maybe not so crazy) what LLM workflows are capable of doing, all with increased reliability. So much so that I've tried to package my thoughts / opinions up into an AI SDK for Apache Airflow [1] (one of the more popular orchestration tools that data engineers use). This feels like the right approach and in our customer base / community, it also maps perfectly to the organizations that have been most successful. The number of times I've seen companies stand up an AI team without really understanding _what problem they want to solve_...

> Even serious discussion of Chinese soldiers in Canada or Mexico is clear casus belli and surefire way for those countries to be occupied

Which is why military alliance discussions aren’t conducted in public. The series of announcements would be e.g. Xi visiting Ottawa for trade talks and then announcing that Canada is under its nuclear umbrella.

> Canada is absolutely indefensible with no strategic depth or ability to get new supplies. Mexico is harder to occupy but their military is a joke and again easy to block all external supplies

Which is why they’ve sought external security guarantees. Now that America is threatening invasion, its security guarantees are diluted. So you need someone else; the only option is China (unless the EU beefs up).
I'm not sure why this is confusing? We're seeing the phenomenon everywhere in culture lately. People WANT something to be true and try to speak it into existence. They also tend to be the people LEAST qualified to speak about the thing they are referencing. It's not marketing hype, it is propaganda.

Meanwhile, the 'experts' are saying something entirely different and being told they're wrong or worse, lying.

I'm sure you've seen it before, but this propaganda, in particular, is the holy grail of 'business people'. The ones who "have a great idea, just need you to do all the work" types. This has been going on since the late 70s, early 80s.
Gemini 2.5 Pro set a wide SOTA on the aider polyglot coding leaderboard [0]. It scored 73%, well ahead of the previous 65% SOTA from Sonnet 3.7.

I use LLMs to improve aider, which is >30k lines of python. So not a toy codebase, not greenfield.

I used Gemini 2.5 Pro for the majority of the work on the latest aider release [1]. This is the first release in a very long time which wasn't predominantly written using Sonnet.

The biggest challenge with Gemini right now is the very tight rate limits. Most of my Sonnet usage lately is just when I am waiting for Gemini’s rate limits to cool down.

Who Framed Roger Rabbit is arguably a classic, so it would have to be pretty stellar to be as good as at a film level!

People interested in the live action / toon might also want to see the 1992 "Cool World."

It is an early Brad Pitt film, squeezed oddly between Thelma and Louise and A River Runs Through It.

Unrelated but fun item for those interested in Roger Rabbit:

There was a ton of crossover between WFRR and Back to the Future Part Two.

Both films from the top (Amblin Entertainment, Zemeckis, Alan Silvestri) down to some of the production crews IIUC.

So if you listen to the soundtracks of both films they have ringing similarities!
As always, much of the conflict comes down to what constitutes "your lane".

The government we have is far from a libertarian "live and let live", regulating nearly every aspect of life and taxing one person to give to another.

It decides what children are taught, who can work jobs, what is a crime, and who pays for different services.

There's 3 reasonable choices for what to do with unsigned overflow: wraparound, saturation, and trapping. Of those, I find wrapping behavior by far the most intuitive and useful.

Saturation breaks the successor relation S(x) != x. Sometimes you want that, but it's extremely situational and rarely do you want saturation precisely at the type max. Saturation is better served by functions in C.

Trapping is fine conceptually, but it means all your arithmetic operations can now error. That's a severe ergonomic issue, isn't particularly well defined for many systems, and introduces a bunch of thorny issues with optimizations. Again, better as functions in C.

On the other hand, wrapping is the mathematical basis for CRCs, Error correcting codes, cryptography, bitwise math, and more. There's no wasted bits, it's the natural implementation in hardware, it's familiar behavior to students from a young age as "clock arithmetic", compilers can easily insert debug mode checks for it (the way rust does when you forget to use Wrapping<T>), etc.

It's obviously not perfect either, as it has the same problem of all fixed size representations in diverging from infinite math people are actually trying to do, but I don't think the alternatives would be better.

It's weird to doubt something that's been in the news a bunch and is reported on by reputable sources though. Instead of expecting 100 people to do a basic search for them, they should have done their own search and only doubted if they didn't find anything.
IMAP 4rev2 merged in a most of the common extensions into the base protocol. Sadly they left out the THREAD, QRESYNC and OBJECTID, though they reference them.

Hey, there are a couple differences between ACS and S3 Express One Zone.

One is speed, ACS provides up to 5X better performance (latency/throughput) than S3 Express One Zone. We have benchmarks repo here: https://github.com/Accelerated-Cloud-Storage/Benchmarks. Please let me know if you have any questions on this.

Another aspect of this is that ACS buckets are modeled on the traditional S3 bucket structure not the directory buckets of S3 Express One Zone. ACS buckets are not stored in only one availability zone and can be accessed in a performant manner from a region different than the region/az of bucket creation.
