Somewhere with a predictable economic policy that doesn't flip flop from week-to-week.

Pulling stunts like this just makes the USA even less investable. Markets operating at the whims of a capricious King (is there even a functioning government right now?)

Incorrect. The price of manufacturing, because of the cost of living differences, would result in a far more expensive product. Free-trade brings into being products that previously would not have existed (Nike trainers for the masses).

Never ever thought I'd see the great Richard Thompson on HN. Thank you!

Not important. This is just testing the water with places most Americans have either not heard of or can't place on a map.

That's a shame. I have a 600 series and have replace many of it's parts - it's eminently repairable. Maybe that's part of the problem though - if I can repair it, I have no motivation to purchase a replacement device no

They don't even align with countries. You know why those odd territories have been given tariffs - because they have tlds. They can't even put a list of trading countries together.

The article addresses the false dichotomy peddled by proponents of tariffs. The option isn't "foreign jobs v US jobs" it's "make part of it abroad" v "make all of it in USA" v "don't make it

Genuine use for an LLM right there

Ah, so don't use the outputs of an LLM commercially?

Assuming you can identify it's someone else's IP. Clearly these are hugely contrived examples, but what about text or code that you might not be as familiar with?

Also there's no tariffs on the billions of $ imports from Russia. Funny that.

Except those islands are Australian territories. And they've given Australia higher tariffs, so in theory they could reduce these tariffs (which will be paid at least in part by US citizens) by exporting through there? There's not

"Personally I think it's a mistake but hot takes "they have no idea what's coming" are I believe naive." They slapped 10pct tariffs on the Heard and McDonald islands. Literally uninhabited islands in Antarctica

Agreed, and none of which invalidates my comment - it's a platform operated by an organisation that employ whatever rules and justifications, no matter how specious, that they see fit. What it most definitely isn't is an immutable

It really isn't. Facebook and Zuckerberg worked hard to get Trump into power. It's naive pomposity of the highest order to suggest that they some shouldn't have the right to remove content not suited to their agenda.

"This is a historian documenting power. And that history — our history — is now being selectively hidden." No, posting on FB is just creating content to drive advertising to one place or another. It's their platform they can

"only recourse" apart from all the other ones listed in tfa, and the article is about how those other routes let her down you mean?

He said it at shareholder meeting. You'd expect a higher level of probity when addressing the people who own your business? Unless he wasn't being straight with them?

Musk said they'd sell 250k-500k a year to shareholders. They're running at what - 10pct of that - so that seems like a fair comment.

Couldn't you just have installed wordpress and a theme?

This is great, but I thought the jump from level 2 to level 3 was a little steep.
