Im really concerned about what big tech is going to do the nezt few years. They have historically been on a good day mediocre stuarts of trust. This was when they had no competition and a money only flows in business…
>The best case is no complaints and that the system is correct. It can never excel. There's no 10x RBAC system people rave about on Twitter. Access controls are a box a product checks, but not a killer feature. This…
I've met a few Ph.D Mathematicians in Academia socially. My unfortunate experience was that they were insufferable,borderline hostile people. I tried to genuinely engage with them too. I've met one Ph.D Mathematician…
How does every form of evil have some sort of apologist on the internet. I was near certian that even before AI there were very active automated or low paid workers astroturfing for companies anytime malfeasance is…
Credit cards are the OG of rent seeking for the 21'st century. The reconized upfront that no one would pay their ridiculous middleman fees so they backdoor-ed the fee with the merchants and had them pass it on in price.…
That was basically my point. You don't even know anymore even with a brand name. The second any brand gains traction they sell out quietly behind the scenes and rug pull the quality.
The amazon tax holds nothing to the credit card tax. Credit cards have been driving prices up for decades with their behind the scenes fees that are passed onto the customer. All for "convenience" of the right to buy…
To me its a bigger problem. The concept of Brand was highly diminished during the manufacturing outsource phase to cheap countries. You could pay $10 for the brand name of a simple product or get the 100% equivalent for…
The first time (and all others) I heard "data lake" my brain instantly translated it to "somone elses problem". As in the very name implies a carelessness to just dump whatever and somone else will take care of it.
This seems like some sort of bait style "news" that hurts the very real awareness of issues with flock. It is not only normal but standard practice for a company to try to get users to evangelize its products. I am not…
What is shocking to me is how can so many boomers still have a mortgage? They could buy a house when you could easily get one for <10 years of salary almost anywhere. You basically had to try not to pay off your…
I've had much better experiences with the "budget" tier models than this test suggests I should. I rarely even consider the higher models due to price/use. Perhaps I'm just more vigilant about spec'ing my prompts out…
Is it REALLY that hard for so many people to just stop drinking sugar water? I just don't get it. I can drink a soda or whatever once a year and thats more than enough for me, I usually don't even finish it. Is there…
I have no personal experience. I've just read a lot of peoples experience around trying to do their own email hosting. It seems the majority give up after a couple years of nonstop blacklisting problems. It could simply…
Tell me if I'm wrong but it seems that if you cross borders a lot the solution is straightforward. Have a second set of disposable devices for out of country usage with nothing but a VPN to virtual desktop. Give them…
Yeah, this subject comes up every couple months. The problem is not getting it working. Its that email is a captured system at this point and the real work is various reputation management processes that the big…
I'm surprised that the outcome was not much greater improvement. I'm glad though it removed one of my concerns about solar. I'm glad cleaning maintenance really is not really needed.
This actually explains why I've never been able to get into his writing despite rave reviews and countless recommendations by people I know. Something about his writing always just felt tedious to me. Im an avid reader…
I live in SV. When I was at the grocery store last year I overheard a group of lawyers talking about their progress on litigation against AI companies and how they need more SWE help to progress. I'd say that they have…
This is the first time Ive ever been concerned that my next PC will be a step down from my current due to costs.
I think we are heading towards an AI apocalypse of disengagement. Like in that Idiocracy movie where the computer lays off the entire company because profits are down and not even the CEO can undo it because he got laid…

Oh wow really? I didnt know that. Did they launch a competing service or something?
I think a lot of HN'ers are in denial. I was an LLM skeptic check my history if you like. At the beginning of 2026 LLMs shifted over the hump to as good or better than most devs and are continuing to get better. I don't…
One of the.big hurdles is pantone support. At some point most places want their design to hit the real world and pantone has that market cornered. I dont just mean the technical parts pantone has expensive licensing…
