This President, too, will pardon his son and the rest of their family. So, it doesn't really matter if it's a crime or not.

For long-term holders, this hardly matters. The real story here is insider trading and corruption by people close to President Trump, who knew, down to the exact minute, when to short BTC and ETH. BTC, meanwhile, being a scarce asset, will

The only good thing about Blockchain today is Bitcoin's scarcity. Almost every other project out there would be better off as a centralized project — heck, many of them are centralized, while claiming to hold on to the decentralized cy

Good resource. Pretty sure I've seen it posted before, perhaps on HN itself.

Yes, and I am more convinced that the market for non-iOS and non-Android mobile devices will grow. Not sure if its going to be GrapheneOS, or Linux — But we can witness the growing trend of privacy-focus — especially after AI being introduc

> I'm curious who needs more battery life than the iPhone... You aren't curious at all. You have formed an opinion. :) Apple recognizes the deficiency, hence they created the battery accessory which they would love to up-self.

To be fair, the evangelical Christians — mostly from the United States — have played as important a role in destroying Nepal traditions as the Chinese.

First, Maldives. Then, Bangladesh, Now, Nepal. An unstable Nepal allows the destabilization of two critical states in India. Regime change in India is the big prize. -- China and India do meddle. But a classic color revolution, such as this

In case the website isn't clear, this seems to be a paid-hosted service for models.

Not just HN, Gitlab has perhaps changed as well.

Apples and oranges when it comes to comparing RAG with MCPs. MCP is an open protocol, and everyone half-competent has an MCP for their product/service. RAG is a bespoke effort per implementation to vectorize data for model consumption.

What's with the edited title "it's Cursor clone". Unless it's literally a Cursor clone, I'd request to change it to describe the product category. Cursor by no means defines the whole category. Not even close.

Find your next mission. Set up FIRE and then focus on humanitarian causes that appeal to you. Nothing better than helping others (humans, animals and nature).

I love how even fair and justifiable critique of Apple needs to be hedged with the "Apple is great" prefix, such is the terror of the Apple downvote mafia on HN. /typed from my Macbook Pro M4 — Love Apple — This is great!

Yes, I get that. You may be underestimating the size of typical PubSec deals.

by factorialboy 2y ago
Exactly my point. Serious pubsec procurement is not done on employee cards.

by factorialboy 2y ago
Exactly my point. Micro-Purchases.

by factorialboy 2y ago
No. Employee cards are not used for significant purchases. They are for employee expenses.

Magazines and news media will suffer most. SaaS / B2B contracts larger than a certain amount won't be on employee credit cards.

Well, I agree and disagree with this comment. For a minority % for whom Django is the tech-choice, there indeed is a product being offered. But for them, and the majority who might not choose Django, there is enough general-purpose advise i

Building a business is more than just building the app. And everything can be duplicated for cheap, especially with gen-ai. But small-businesses will transform, continue and dare-I-say thrive.

Contrary (and cynical) take. If your goal is to climb the corporate ladder, work where you feel you can rise the fastest. The smartest people won't be your peers in higher management.

After becoming sick of Upwork and the likes, a bunch of us started the Dutch Freelance Collective - dutchfreelance.org - to find local, freelance projects. This has worked out well till now. I recommend finding local gigs, wherever you may
