What I'm seeing is that we need a true open source phone and os. Looks like there's been some work on those fronts, but we need to do more.

It wouldn't surprise me if the BGP routes in the DCI PNI were manually configured, since this is probably one of the most direct and important connections. I would be surprised if Cloudflare didn't have firsthand knowledge of what

Cursor's agent is better, but the in-editor suggestions by Copilot when you're actually the one coding are very useful. Claude's agent is better than Cursor, so I'm not sure where Cursor fits in with this ecosystem.

I'm surprised, mostly because Google seems to have basically no salespeople, account reps, or customer management.

I think it's fundamentally easy to use once you get it set up, it's just absolutely madness in terms of configuration. But you can easily manage a backlog, sprints, update tickets, etc, plus they have a query language (JQL) that y

The restrictions on supply are generally economical. Every day, building gets more expensive; labor and parts both cost more. That is going to cause the average home to cost more, even older ones, as you always have the option to get a new

Very loose definition of "prove". I would guess that there are many on HN who are overqualified for any H1B job and would take it for the right money. The talent is here, they just want to pay less.

I’m mostly a MySQL user. Two things stand out: 1) the Postgres documentation does not mention that Notify causes a global lock or lock of any sort (I checked). That’s crazy to me; if something causes a lock, the documentation should tell yo

This tax issue (not a break - normally you can count employees as a businesss expense for the current year, this made software unusual) meant that startups or other tech companies were extremely disadvantaged in the short term, and had to p

Cursor, Copilot agent mode, and Windsurf. The agent modes can search repos, modify code, and run code on their own. I thought Cursor's agent was the best. I did like Windsurf's agent plans, but the actual results weren't good

After a recent conversation here, I spent a few weeks using agents. These agents are just as disappointing as what we had before. Except now I waste more time getting bad results, though I’m really impressed by how these agents manage to fu

Iran believes in martyrdom, which absolutely changes the reasoning. They would destroy Israel in a heartbeat even if it meant losing 90% of their population.

The math does imply infinite universes. There are many physicists who believe that all these worlds do exist. See also: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Many-worlds_interpretation And a video: https://www.youtu

I've spent the past month or so immersed in Penrose diagrams. Some of the implications of the math and diagrams include white holes (opposite of black holes - spew matter outwards), infinite universes contained within one another other

Where are the results? I keep hearing about how great these coding agents are. What have you built beyond the complexity of a disposable toy app? Where are the swarms of new apps built by these agents that are solving new problems and takin

If your mission is to promote diversity and your job is to hire people, you are either increasing diversity hiring or you aren’t completing your mission or job. You can find reports of hr employees and lawsuits involving major companies and

I have never used any of these features, I just see the names on the group chat - same as groups texts 15 years ago. I don’t want to hide that with a group name that might make me forget who I’m messaging.

I think the below poster got it right. Cutting out Facebook certainly improved my life; cutting out instagram later was an additive improvement. Now I’m left with HN (which generally avoids the bad parts of social media) and Reddit (which h

Group chats existed before any of this social media did. Pretty funny that we’ve come full circle on that.

Google "diversity quotas" or "hiring targets". If you are explicitly demanding a disproportionate number of minority candidates, you are disadvantaging other candidates.

This is surprising to me. My company (top 20 by revenue) has forbidden us from using non-approved AI tools (basically anything other than our own ChatGPT / LLM tool). Obviously it can't truly be enforced, but they do not want us u

If your currency is high value (which USD is due to demand in part due to oil and part due to others having reserves of it), foreign goods are cheap to you. This makes importing attractive, but it makes it very expensive for other countries

The only point I’d argue with this professor: give students your slides by default. In my graduate program, this is done for every class. As a working professional, slides are regularly shared so information can be reviewed later.

The administration could decide to detain, deport, or kill everyone who has certain traits - say, Jewish, or Arab, or Mexican, or maybe just has undesirable traits. The db of millions of users makes this very easy. The US admin is already a

I think the correct way to do this is to allow a rollback to the immediately previous working version. Before updating, write current firmware to failsafe data storage, then do the update. Then a firmware reset sends you back to the last go

I think it’s a good product. The problem with all these chat apps (as companies to invest in) is there’s no moat; as soon as a more convenient or better option comes along, people will switch. There’s not a big integrated community or advan
