Agreed on Biden's ego being a problem, but when did he ever promise to be a one term president?

The ability to express joins in terms of SQL with Estuary is pretty cool. Flink can do a lot of what is described in this post, but you have to set up a lot of intermediate structures, write a lot of Java/Scala, and store your state as

The word "just" is doing a lot there. How easy do you think it is to "just" switch?

It's very funny that The Register still calls Apple "the iGiant" and the "the iMaker".

It's wrong to call using a privacy preserving messaging app "destroying evidence".

Somehow I missed that. I get why you wouldn't want to do that, but IMHO they're inseparable. You couldn't possibly use it in movie titles or marketing without evoking him.

That's because you were a child at the time. A child now will most likely have the same sense of awe and wonder you had, not the cynical point of view you've developed over time.

It's interesting how this feels like a big deal; when I learned of this yesterday, I almost forgot that there have been almost 30 missions to Mars (which I assume is much harder and more expensive) in the years since the last moon land

Who is Shinzo Young? I just did a Google search for that name and this comment was the first thing to show up.

Wikipedia entries are some of my favorite HN front page entries because it’s always a mystery to me as to which ones pop up and which don’t (I’ve submitted a few that didn’t make it). Try archive.is to bypass paywalled articles.

Is Arduino real-time? I.e. is a 6 millisecond delay guaranteed to actually be 6 milliseconds?

The OP doesn’t read like a ChatGPT comment to me, though maybe I’m easily fooled. It has a bit more personality (“High-theory”, putting “just” in quotes as an ironic wink). It’s tongue-in-cheek, not nonsensical.

I disagree with nearly this entire post, which is fun. I find that the poly blend shirts that the author loves (especially like the MongoDB shirt) are clingy and sweaty. Softness is low on my list of shirt priorities - comfort and fit are h

Given the cost of training AI models, I find that to be incredibly unlikely.

I think this is more about search engine than browser choice.

This is a very shallow glance at how "chatbots" have been used in the customer service space, especially in the past 10 years. If you look at what the term has been referring to in the last decade or so, it's not really the A

It's not "fake news" that you now need to be logged in to see tweets. Whether or not this is truly temporary remains to be seen. But we now know this is something Twitter is willing to do, even if they undo it.

I think it's probably the opposite -- they've probably hired him to help build their new entertainment+surveillance stack.

Photography! Contemporary photography really does require a computer, but I find it's a lot more physical, and requires you to leave the house, which is very different from the laptop/screen life. This is definitely not a post-int

While this post champions the progress made by OSS, it also mentions that a huge leap came from Meta releasing Llama. Would the rapid gains in OSS AI have came as quickly without that? Did Meta strategically release Llama knowing it would d

The confusion from multiple HN posters here confirms that the "recall" language is inadequate to capture what is happening here. Obviously attention should be drawn to the fact that there is a critical safety update being pushed O

Not sure if it's some kind of joke or the author doesn't want their article on Hacker News, but the URL is currently 302'd to point to Google.com.

Cool browser. But, these icons were not meant to be rendered with the heavy anti-aliasing performed by today's web browsers and displays. There is now a CSS property `image-rendering` which you can set to `pixelated` to perform nearest

Yes, that's exactly my point. There already is a standardized version, created by the author of the post itself.
