I was under the impression that this isn't so much "sync" as it is just enabling manual file management with these services. Is that incorrect?

I think the parent is suggesting that these things could be maintained in a cost effective way indefinitely. It's not like you hit year 50 and throw it away because of some inherent quality of the tech (as with nuclear plants or lithiu

I suppose the problem with it is that such "protest theater" could only work if the people who support the regime are capable of empathy for those who are objecting. In this case the opposite is true - this administration won on a

While this matches my experience, it's worth mentioning thar the act of breaking a task up into the correct chunk size and describing it in English is itself a non trivial task which can be more time consuming than simply writing the a

This is the crux of the matter. Maybe conceptually you will be able to run some kind of open operating system with your own code, but it will be unable to access software or services provided by corporate or governmental entities. This has

I mean, that was leading up to the election. They wanted their tax breaks and crypto deregulation badly, and they were selling a pile of goods to everybody who would listen. Now that they've won on every level, there's not much re

They're not going to publish device trees for pixel phones, so what hardware will you use? Commercial apps and services will require passkeys and device attestation, so you'll only be able to use open source software even if you

I think Ruby is really great at what it tries to do. The only "problem" with it is that python kind of sucked the air out of the room and ruby got shoved into a little niche. These languages are really quite similar in many ways,

Intel is definitely special in that it's the only truly American fab. I don't have a problem with a US government owning a stake in Intel given its massive strategic importance, but I have a problem with this government owning

This is really where the focus needs to be for young people, and I think it's where our education system is really failing. What exercise is best? Why... the one you enjoy and will continue doing! Focusing on ROI can be a good way to v

RFC speak is a good way to put it. Also, there's a big difference between giving general "always on" context (as in agents.md) for vibe coding - like "validate against existing code" etc - versus bouncing ideas in a

Some of these sample prompts in this blog post are extremely verbose: If you are considering leveraging any of the documentation or examples, you need to validate that the documentation or example actually matches what is currently in the

Spell out what you are implying. I have no idea what the originator of this thread was doing to end up in their situation. I've seen nothing like it on bluesky. Maybe it's obvious to you and others why it happened, but it's n

Why on earth is this downvoted? I have an identical question. The default method of operation on Bluesky is that you follow people you are interested in, and only the people you follow show up in your feed.

What tooling are you using? I use aider and your description doesn't match my experience, even with a relatively bad-at-coding model (gpt-5). It does actually work and it does generate "good" code - it even matches the style

It's just another anecdote, but the "vibes" feel like they're shifting. The employment numbers, the inflation numbers, government austerity, the gpt-5 disappointment... the valuations are all more like meme stocks and no

Absolutely. I likely will continue to use my Garmin watch because I rely heavily on the fitness stuff that they do so well, but outside of that the Garmin is "just OK." If you want a fitness tracker that is also a smartwatch the G

Thank you! It is extremely disappointing that the parent post was upvoted so highly while stating that crime was "so bad for so long." This was not a statement grounded in any reality and reads like propaganda. HN (and the tech in

Yeah and "distribution" isn't even mentioned on the page. I flagged this post for the misleading title. Although this is kind of interesting it's nowhere near as interesting as a new distribution.

Closer to home, here on HN (and in SV generally) there is a lot of support for this regime. It's infuriating that people who really should know better either remain willfully ignorant or simply view the loss to humanity as an accep

The walls really are closing in though. There's basically no way we can avoid this scenario. So we don't use passkeys? OK, fine, in 2025 that's possible. But for how long? How many sites and services are going to start requir

Of course, if you live in a large metro the local stations will survive due to large numbers of wealthy and middle class benefactors. This is not necessarily so if you live in a typical red state middle size city or less. Somewhat ironicall
