I once had the realization that a riff from Metallica's "The Four Horseman" was the same as that from Tom Petty's "Last Dance With Mary Jane" except, as I learned several years after the realization, it is actually the riff from "Sweet Home Alabama" which was introduced in a session as a joke by the guitarist to make fun of the drummer for having narrow musical knowledge. He was correct in his assumption that the drummer wouldn't recognize it, and it was included in the final version of the song.

there was some work on using apple's underlying BLE / mesh network they use for their tracking devices, but with open / alt devices

Something like that could be useful if anyone with an iphone going nearby the signal was enough to pick it up, without them requiring to have the app installed.
Perhaps. I don't see how he thought this was going to save his empire, though. Trump's crowd hates electric cars. Environmental concerns are to them what pork is to pious Jews and Muslims, beef to Hindus. Rolling coal is their sacrament. The refrain at Trump's rallies was "drill, baby, drill". And this has been the case -- not the refrain, but the attitude -- since the 60s. So how was Trump ever going to save "Tesler"? It makes as much sense as sacrificing your children to Moloch to save your family line: the only thing that is sure in that bargain is the death of your children.
Kudos to him. 25 hours of speech and based on the summaries I'm seeing, he said a lot of things that needed to be said.
It's interesting to think how a 20 year old OS plus one program is probably a smaller bundle size than many modern Electron apps ostensibly built "for cross platform compatibility". Maybe microkernels are the way.
And photography initially had lower quality and performance ceilings compared to portraitists and artists of the day. And today, photographers win awards for their work.

New tools and techniques that lower the barrier to entry always get over used, over hyped and bring in masses of people making everything from impressive new things to absolute cheap garbage. And then people learn the limitations, the tools get better and a lot of people stop using the tools because they realize there are still skills that go into the process and they aren’t interested in learning those skills. The tools find their place, and new masters rise into the new world. And then a new tool is created and we start the process all over again.
Then there's needing to contend with possible serial number scanning occurring at automated stations and at financial institutions, cataloging the movements of specific bills, detecting clones (improbable or impossible physical note appearances), and detecting zombies (decommissioned/known-destroyed numbers, and numbers never emitted). Randomly generating numbers is likely to trip clone and zombie sensors at various surveillance points.

Bill scanning to verify authenticity is already occurring, why not record the fact Bank of xAI ATM #67387 tendered two Franklins with serial numbers $SERIALA and $SERIALB to you (verified by PIN and card, and possibly bolstered by Face ID incognito); maybe older systems only do the verification locally and lack OCR, but I'm positive new systems are plenty powerful enough to run pared down OCR on serial numbers... wait they have been doing it with cheques all these years with handwritten dollar values, so why not OCR serial numbers coming and going? You see? The net deepens. I probably can't suggest methods of washing this data without possibly committing some obscure crime, so I will leave you to your creative imaginations...
The "peripheral area of the retina continuously contacts sunlight" part is just wishful thinking at this point.

> I'm glad that El Salvador has taken control over gang activity

> Abrego Garcia’s family has had no contact with him since he was sent to the megaprison in El Salvador, known as the CECOT. His wife spotted her husband in news photographs released by Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele on the morning of March 16, after a U.S. District Judge had told the Trump administration to halt the flights. “Oopsie,” Bukele wrote on social media, taunting the judge.

The man is nothing more than a tyrant with a smile, and now his concentration camp will be used to house whoever pays him or gets in his way, not just alleged gang members. He's already in power unconstitutionally: https://apnews.com/article/el-salvador-elections-bukele-demo...

Now it may take decades for Salvadorans to rid themselves of this dictatorship.

Well, my experience with an IBM operators console was back in the mid-80s with a twin 4381 setup. It was sometimes more convenient for me to set up a big print job at the main site which had a high performance printer (I actually wrote a multi-site print spooling service in ReXX earlier, but it was more efficient for big jobs (ha-ha for UK readers) to execute them directly).

Anyway, my experience - I am in Linda's office - Linda (system manager) is not in yet, the system console is just convenient:

Me: set up job, using normal keyboard commands, with my usual login, no special privileges.

Linda: (just comes in) What you doing?

Me: Don't get your knickers in a twist. And can you make me a coffee?

Linda: Aargh! OK (we were friends), but don't press Button-B!

One of my many problems with function keys. Button-B would probably just have requested an operator to unmount a disk (or whatever), but who knows.
I hate compiling. 9/10 something goes wrong. Sometimes I can fix it, other times I just abandon the effort and use something else. These days I just use packages or docker images and if that doesn't work out I'm moving on, ain't nobody got time for this. You really can't expect people who just want to use their computers and don't even know what a compiler is to get involved in a process like that.
Svelte uses JSDoc and has TS validate that. Nue uses nothing. This analogy makes no sense.
First Retinal Treatment to Restore Damaged Vision
Adding some context to this, because it's a really interesting read that's worth the time if you ask me: it's about how some recently 'discovered' early playtest versions of Pokemon cards were found to be fake, or at least very suspicious, based on the presence (and decoding) of these dots.

I also find it interesting because the person who posted the discovery and breakdown of the dots stood to personally lose thousands of dollars they'd spent on the fakes, but posted their findings anyway.
Oh, okay. But you can still use AR glasses/VR headsets/projectors, with distant (1-3 m) images to prevent myopia induced by extended periods of focusing on close objects when used in place of computer monitors or physical books, magazines, etc.
Intel mostly just shot itself in the foot; easy to "outperform" a handicapped opponent, and there is no merit in doing so. x86 is also a piece of shit in the grander scheme of things, and will be eaten away by alternative hardware soon. So no, I don't think that has anything to do with it, which is why I was asking a legitimate question. Do people just regurgitate the crap they read online, or do they actually put thought into the beliefs that they form?

Agree with your last statement, though. For-hire CEOs--as opposed to founder-CEOs, who often have an actual vision--take way more credit for their "work" than they deserve.

Also rofl at that "axe to grind". That one took me offline for a few seconds.
Yes, but only after a few shrooms and a lot of tequila
Have you considered making the app to take a GPS reading then turn off the GPS to save battery life? If the person say is trapped in rubble they likely not going to move afterwards thus you can relay this location information to nearby receivers.
Snap is another competitor in this space that has see-through displays via waveguides.
haha oh, these kinds of clones are mostly just built on basic KV stores that we store in our postgres db! there's a couple different types of KV stores we give the app generations, but it's mostly just differing auth types (global, private, shared w/ friends).
Show HN: AI Job Matching Tool to help in this difficult job market
Hey all - built this AI job matching tool on the side (am somewhat technical but used Cursor and Replit to get an MVP going). Was laid off and have been having a tough time finding jobs (honestly the job market is so difficult right now and applying to jobs is a crap shoot)

Here is how it works:

--Recruiters can post a job similar to other job boards. The AI agent operating underneath the hood analyzes the job description and other specifications.

--Afterwards, the agent goes through the database of candidates to find the best fit for each job by analyzing each applicant's previous experience and future job preferences (e.g., level, role, location, salary, etc.), assigning them a score of 0-100%.

--The agent then presents recruiters a stream of higher qualified candidates with match scores above 80% for each job posted that they can swipe "interested" or "not interested." Candidates also get a stream of jobs that they are 80%+ matches for.

--Once a match occurs, recruiters can sync their calendars and candidates can choose a time to chat about the role (basically get a 1st round interview).

This is still in beta, so would love to get feedback. Here is a demo of what it would look like

It is a funny fact though that Le Pen herself was pushing for automatic ban on running for elections for the stuff she did.
The original version was the four (SMB1,2,3 and Super Mario Bros. USA aka the western SMB2) 8-bit Super Mario games ported to the 16-bit Super Famicom. New graphics, sound, etc.

Super Mario 3D All-Stars was Super Mario 64, Sunshine and Galaxy ported to the Switch with HD graphics and limited modifications. Widescreen and new controls were added.

The 3D version was a limited edition thing and not terribly well received. They could have done a lot more, they also could have included SM Galaxy 2.

Nintendo did a similar thing for Zelda on the GCN with a couple N64 games on a disc when you preordered a newer Zelda game.

You wanna hear my evidence-free cosmic structure theory? Of course you do.

If you shine a laser through a mass of soap bubbles it will unsurprisingly split into lots of smaller beams due to a mix of refraction and reflection. I have long held the suspicion that there's an isomorphism between gravitational and surface tension structures, that the multiplicity and distance of galaxies may be somewhat illusory, and that many of them are translated/rotated reflections of nearer ones. Laugh now, perhaps gasp in wonder later.
This is really smart. I did not!

In my situation, GPS was being jammed. That made GPS not useful at all.
I tried my best to avoid it for that and battery usage.

But this initial reading and turning it off is just genius. I added to the list. Thank you so much!

>the newness of different tech isn’t actually the real problem and feels like the wrong critique

I'm not equating new = bad. I'm saying new = good is wrong. And based on your last sentence, you do think car manufacturers all switching over to all touch controls was a problem. Almost everyone prefers buttons to touch screens, that's my point. The better more popular option was rejected because of a false premise, or false belief.

Stealth AI Healthcare Startup | Boston, MA Onsite | Full-time | Founding Engineer

We're looking for a backend-leaning fullstack dev. You will be the first engineer outside of the founding team. Here is a bit more about us:

We're a seed stage AI startup backed by several top tier VCs.

We're on a mission to ensure patients get the coverage they deserve and providers get paid fairly! To do so, we're debugging core problems in the US healthcare system with a modern tech stack and AI. We use AWS, K8s, React, and Rust but there is no requirement to have prior experience with them specifically. We'll teach you!

We are a founding team made up of ex-YC, Amazon, Meta, and Harvard Business School with previous successful exits. We also have a 6+ month customer waitlist!

We're hiring our first engineer outside the founders. You'll work directly with customers to understand their needs, design the right solution, and build from zero to one. You'll own entire parts of the roadmap and tech stack while wearing multiple hats. Most important characteristics are resilience, work ethic, and curiosity. We care about slope, not where you are today. This is an opportunity to work in an insanely fast paced, high ownership environment while solving real problems in healthcare.

We're happy to share more details on the role in person/on zoom. Please fill out this form if interested!

Can confirm, and would recommend against buying one. Additionally they lock down their bootloader and do not release their kernel source code, basically you're trusting your data and home network for a random vendor. It's a shame because their devices (hw) are extremely capable.
This blows my mind, that in 2025 we still struggle with a simple task such as "read in a string, parse it, and query a cascade of resolvers to discover it's IP". I just can't fathom how that is a difficult problem, or why DNS still is notorious for causing so much pain and suffering. Compared to the advancements in hardware and graphics and so many other areas.
The Gimme-brand seaweed snacks I get contain oxygen absorbers. So do packages of Tillamook Country Smoker jerky and meat sticks.

> shouldn't he be above petty things like revenge?

Something about creating man in his image? I think I’ve had that discussion before. To make anything he does reasonable, his omnicience and omnipotence need to have limits.
There's LoRa runs on 450/900 MHz with complete stack for transmitting and relaying messages. There's even modern encrypted protocol (meshstatic) built on it.
At my old uni there were a couple public terminals running DOS, most of the time sitting idle at the prompt. It was bespoke kiosk cabinets only exposing keyboard and screen. One April Fool's I had the bright idea to change PROMPT to something along the lines of "This terminal out of service." - and to increase the confusion, also to change PATH to a non-existent directory, so that most commands wouldn't work and instead flash "Bad command or file name.".

For a couple minutes observed people coming up to a terminal, trying a few things, and stepping away in frustration.

I sure hope administration did restart the terminals overnight to return regular function; normal users were unable to access the power & reset controls.
It would be for atheists, but then it would be left out of the bible ;)

> adding an application (not just a program binary) is as easy as extracting a package into a folder and integrates with the rest of the system

I have fond memories of installed Warlords Battle Cry 3, Warcraft 3, AOE2 etc. directories on flash drives, distributed to 20+ kids in high school (all using the same key). Good days.
Decades ago, I came up with 'micro-kerning' - an added single length gap added to few scattered letters = unique message for each person you send it to. True, you have to keep an index to compare to ID the leaker.
Various governments used to do this for this reason in the last few years of the 1980's. Smart people used to copy/paste with a constant width font to defeat this. Then locked pdf helped, but OCR got around this.
I think you can use steganographic encoding of scattered dots in a jpg, which laser printer catch money copiers with these days. The dots can be found with a scanner and again needs an index to 'read' the color photo. I have a friend who was an ambassador until he retired = I will ask, but he might consider it sensitive, and not reveal it - likely?
