A few years ago my wife and I went to the Lard Butt 1K. It was a single lap around the Polo Fields track, with beer stands before and after and donut stands every few hundred feet around the course. Instead of time groups they had weight classes. I dressed as The Dude. We ambled next to a guy dressed as a cockroach pulling a wagon full of his similarly dressed children; he was Papa Roach.

We've got our problems here, to be sure, but there's nowhere I'd rather be.

Worth noting that the relations to elder is really getting rocky, and people are rethinking them in both directions.

We can't hide from the influence the elder generations had on the current situation. Japan is a developed nation with a crazy low crime rate and incredible infrastructure thanks to them. It's also a social mess and the poster child of stagnation thanks to them.

This whole trading card game surfaces both sides of the coin, with what these people are bringing to the community and also why small kids shouldn't look to much upon them as it's a recipe for trouble.

I don’t think Foreign Policy is considered some crackpot conspiracy theory rag.

USAID was run by the State department, which is known to provide cover for the CIA (every embassy has CIA officers working out of it). This is not a “conspiracy theory”. The CIA does exist and they do spy on other countries.

What do you think the CIA does? Do you think they go to other countries and open an office with a big sign saying “Hello, this is the CIA”?

That's america. The rest of the western world (Ireland, UK, Aus etc) tend to be much more pro Palestine than israel, I'm assuming due to less biased media (The NYT edited that hospital bombing headline 4 times once published to hide israels fault)

Be the change you want to see in the world. It is supposed to be a user agent. Instead of imposing this cost on everyone else, if you think it is important to be able to have fine grained control over cookies, make it happen.

Advantages:

1. A single UI in each browser instead of a different one on each website
2. The functionality would be built and maintained by someone with allied rather than adverse interests to the user.

Also you can disable cookies quite easily and whether your UI supports it or not is totally irrelevant anyway. If you use a web browser that sends cookies to websites then that you have authorised it to do so is your responsibility. Use a different browser or don't use one if you don't like it.

Not OP but I definitely sympathise with them. I don't know how practical it is to implement or how profitable it would be, but the problem I often have is this:
* I have something I want to buy and have specific needs for it (height, color, shape, other properties)
* I know that there's a good chance the website I'm on sells a product that meets those needs (or possibly several such that I'd want to choose from)
* my criteria are more specific than the filters available on the site e.g. I want a specific length down to a few cm because I want the biggest thing that will fit in a fixed space
* crucially for an AI use case: the information exists on the individual product pages. They all list dimensions and specifications. I just don't want to have to go through them all.

> I'm aware an immigration judge in 2019 withheld his removal and there was an unreliable witnesses claiming they heard him say he had connections, but that was in NY, not Maryland where Abrego Garcia lives.

Most of that is false, and you should look at what media you've confused that has given you that false impression. In 2019, an immigration judge determined that Garcia was deportable because of his ties to MS-13 and issued a deportation order: https://www.supremecourt.gov/DocketPDF/24/24A949/354843/2025.... The relevant orders of the immigration judge and Board of Immigration Appeals are at appendix pages 1a-18a. The most relevant portion is 4a through 5a, where the Board of Immigration appeals affirms the immigration judge's determination that Garcia "is a verified member of MS-13."

> I'm also aware the Trump administration admitted they made a mistake in deporting him.

Incorrect. It is undisputed that, in 2019, the immigration judge issued a removal order. The only caveat was that Garcia could not be removed to El Salvador, his home country. From appendix page 46a (Garcia's brief in the current district court proceedings):

> Plaintiff Kilmar Armando Abrego Garcia ("Mr. Abrego Garcia") won an order from an immigration judge ("IJ") prohibiting his removal to El Salvador, after he established it was more likely than not that he would be persecuted in that country on account of a statutorily protected ground. The government could have chosen to appeal that order, but did not. The government could have chosen to remove Mr. Abrego Garcia to any other country on earth, but did not.

>It's possible to design a business model in such a way that you have negative cash conversion cycles,

This seems like it would only be possible if your DPO is greater than the sum of your DIO and DSO. In other words, you are so tardy in paying your invoices (or good at negotiating payment terms, I suppose) that you manage to sit on cash worth more than the value of your inventory + outstanding receivables. That is... one way to run your business.

Maybe I am missing something but this seems like a house of cards. Eventually you need to pay your invoices, and time shifting that a bit doesn't actually make your business profitable.

Quite willing to accept I have missed something though.

It depends. Some other reasons:

1. It's an enterprise product and the economic buyer doesn't know or care about bugs as much as checklisted features.

2. The company is not connecting the impact of fixing bugs to their bottom line. Or they are and estimate the impact to be low.

3. The code base is due for a rewrite so it would be a waste.

4. It's a side bet not worth the extra resources.
1: Mortgages drive house prices. Individuals bid up to the limit that they can afford the repayments. We had an earthquake in Christchurch and uninsured homes went for half the price of insured homes (because mortgages unavailable on uninsured homes).

2: House status upshifting drives people to earn more (once they are on the property ladder). I suspect large parts of the professional economy is driven by people wanting nicer houses. Status matters.

3: Property taxes depend on location. In Christchurch the property (council) taxes have a total budget that is then split depending on price. So your taxes go up if your house valuation increases compared to rest of market.

Fixing other's shitty code doesn't push the needle -- particularly in an industry that strives to get customers to open their wallets and shell out hard currency.

If a company's ultimate goal is to extract money from people, then developers who can extract money faster (even if their rendering/loading algorithms suck) will get rewarded better than those who don't.

That's why enshittification is a thing (and actually come to think of it, not new either). It might be a dev that learned from product leadership that, "I could fix these 13 lines of code. But you know, our company could also sell a 'PRO' version subscription for $5 a month which provides the fix..."

> Nowadays, Leggio told Fortune he won’t even set up an interview with a candidate who seems promising on paper unless they agree to one final step.

“Say something negative about Kim Jong Un,” Leggio tells potential job candidates, referring to the third-generation authoritarian Supreme Leader of North Korea, officially the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (DPRK). Through research, Leggio learned insulting the DPRK’s Supreme Leader is forbidden, and North Korean citizens could face serious punishment for showing anything less than reverence.

“The first time I ever did it, the person started freaking out and cursing,” said Leggio.

The job seeker subsequently blocked Leggio across all social media platforms. Now Leggio makes the same request before every single interview. Other startups and founders he knows are asking the same thing of job seekers, he said.

> Git is for hobby side projects. Perforce and Sapling are for adult projects.

The numbers I've seen say git has about 87-93% of the version control market share. That's just one of many reasons I think it is safe to say most professional developers disagree with you. I can understand someone prefering Perforce for their workflow (and yes, I have used it before). But saying Git is only "for hobby side projects" is just ridiculous. It has obviously proven its value for professional development work, even if it doesn't fit your personal taste.

The last third should have been a short epilogue or a full sequel. It's too much of a pivot in terms of tone and focus, and feels incongruous and mismatched with the first two sections (which are excellent). He clearly had a bunch of ideas that didn't fit into the main body of the work and grafted them on anyway; it wasn't bad, it just didn't fit.

The comparison would be Orson Scott Card writing Ender's Game to set up the universe of Speaker for the Dead, but instead making Speaker for the Dead a third of its size and calling it the last few chapters of Ender's Game. They should just be different works in the same setting.

Curious how you would respond to this argument today.
I’ve come to realize AI works as well as it does because it was trained extensively on the same kinds of things people normally ask. So, it already has the benefit of vast amounts of human responses.

Of course, ask it a PhD level question and it will confidently hallucinate more than Beavis & Butthead.

That's incorrect. Lots of immigration decisions are judicially unreviewable, such as visa revocations: https://www.boundless.com/blog/supreme-court-rules-courts-ca.... The Supreme Court has also never held that non-citizens have a right to an Article III judicial determination to challenge deportation. The current immigration laws provide for many circumstances where deportation is judicially unreviewable, and indeed does not even require a determination by an administrative immigration judge: https://www.americanimmigrationcouncil.org/research/expedite...

Show HN: Turn Photos into Studio Ghibli Art with AI
I built AISiteGen - an AI platform that transforms ordinary photos into magical Studio Ghibli-style artwork.

Key Features:

Authentic Ghibli-style transformations in seconds

Multiple output variations per generation

Customizable style strength and quality settings

Privacy-focused (images aren't stored)

Affordable alternative to commissioning artists

Why I Built This:
As a huge Ghibli fan, I wanted an accessible way to see myself and my surroundings in that magical art style. Existing solutions were either too expensive or didn't capture the Ghibli essence well.

Pricing:

−
9.99−39.99/month for full access

Would love feedback from the HN community! Especially on:

The quality of the Ghibli-style transformations

The user experience of the generation flow
