They denied climate change even before the data center boom. Poor argument, even if the target you want is on the side of the field you’re aiming at.

SpaceX had adult leadership for a long time. I suspect there was a tacit agreement with Musk about a bit of separation. He broke through that professional firewall when he merged xAI with SpaceX and then pushed it to go public as he did. I

I haven't seen that point yet, and I was looking for it. Presumably Moonshot paid for that Fable access and Anthropic got paid. How much of the frontier model revenue stream is supported by paid distillation traffic? Obv paid kimi serv

GoPro has been “in trouble” for years and years. All of that may be true but they just haven’t justified their survival. They may well be better off selling to Garmin or another domestic air defense vendor and be done in the consumer market

I lost my best early programs because of the Sinclair QL tape drives. They were maddening. I knew I wouldn’t be a game designer when I struggled, as a young child, with sprites. I turned to coding BBS software, which immediately made sense

Weirder is what happened a day later. I got an email that said my Chase Amazon Prime credit card was being re-associated with my Amazon.com account. I never reported this nor took it up with either Amazon or Chase directly. There was a refu

You see how that’s an entirely different kind of legal action, right? It’s a resistance to regulation, which is entirely different than this accusation of malfeasance.

I realized recently that Whole Foods no longer automatically and reliably detects your Chase Amazon Prime credit card when paying. So they don’t give you the discounted pricing automatically. I wonder how many customers are checking out the

Don’t disagree, but screed funnier. Plus it still fits, as the dictionary definition is “lengthy, often ranted” — which doesn’t preclude reasoned.

When I was young, my family would weekend brunch near a mall. After brunch we’d visit the mall because the only place open in the mall on a Sunday was a model train store. At home we had an Osborne 1. In the mall there was an Apple dealer w

I look forward to John Gruber’s screed on this given his recent rampages against Electron apps, and his preference for OpenAIs native macOS app (relative to Claude).

Ehh do you remember the defaults back in the day? And how long local vs intermediary vs backbone TTLs could be cached for, even above and beyond the set TTL? The propagation part refers to how long it would take for all those cached request

It was designed as a bad movie by people who didn’t realize their idea was terrible. It was hardly organized, as Peter Jackson had to come in late in the game and against his will to try saving the franchise. PJ defined the product that was

The "let builders and capitalists do anything because the future will be better for it" isn't a technically considered position. It's a tautology.

It's not just the stories, it's the behavior of the community that creates the threads. EDIT: Took a look, it doesn't really solve the issue I raised above, but it is an interesting link. Thanks.

Honestly. I want the AI news. I wish HN would add filtering features. I know they want us to all see the same homepage, but it’s time to let us have our tables. Pro-AI-era should be able to have a cohort thread, and anti-AI should be able t

It’s kind of amazing how steadily this question is asked in every forum where it can be asked. Kind of amazing that the answers previously given can’t reach the next person who’s going to ask it.
