It changed in the same way cheating on your wife changes the dynamic in a marriage. It ruins trust that may never be possible to restore.

One obvious alternative is to not to behave like a bully but like a real leader. The US could disengage in much more orderly fashion, if it so pleased.

I have found myself lately to feel indifferent to many threads on HN that would otherwise have exicted me because of the insane world politics events which were occuring simulatenously but without mention. There is an intelligent crowd her

America looks weak because it has just lost the cold war. All the effort spent since 1945 to counter authoritarian superpowers have been thrown in the bin. Instead it turned into one itself. It is pathetic.

Agree with all of the above. Electric bikes are a game changer. It takes away most of the strain and effort from cycling, making it as convenient as walking. You still have to deal with weather, traffic, theft and so on, but it is still an

Yes it is sad, but the stakes are too high to ignore. I don't know where you live but in Europe most people are very disappointed in recent actions by the US. Any decision, from small to large, now should factor in if it benefits Eur

I can understand the economical argument. If the US wants to disengage from NATO and Europe it can do so orderly. But the way this handled makes the retreat from Afghanistan look exemplary in comparison. In addition. Extorting a country tha

Is this something you did to not support the undercurrents of these news? I have been thinking the same, but why is Claude better?

Depends on perspective. It was not unbelievable yesterday what happened today. But it was completely unbelievable before Trump entered the political stage.

This marks the day when the US went rogue. Plain and clear.

Interesting idea for another type of score - what is the average if just taking into account 1-3 ?

This was too deep for me. Pretend we have a system that works differently than intended. I could say it does not meet its purpose. This quote means something else. Am I wrong?

My first PC was a used IBM PS/2 Model 70. 2 MB RAM, 60 MB HD. It could not run Linux due to the MCA bus. I lost one year of Linux use because of it, until I bought a Pentium 75.

The political right in Europe is not the same as the political right in the US. I am myself on the right side of the political spectrum and I despise Trump and more recently Musk. You can probably still find people that don't care, but

Tesla is going down the drain, at least in Europe, unless shareholders evict Musk. Nothing iPhone-like with that brand anymore.

Listened to this video yesterday and it just makes me sad. In my opinion, Jon has been let down by the community to which he belonged. It is clear there were differences of opinion and so on, but I did not see anything that motivated his e

I don't follow this argument. Unless you chose to step in to DetSys ecosystem with this fh tool or whatever, this has no impact on you at all.

Is it really a moat though? The same flake can still be evaluated without this service, it just takes longer.

Can the evaluation tax be quantified in some way? In other words, how big is the problem that this solves?

I hope we will not see consolidation in this space but instead many competing services. I want a future where I will pay my AI money to someone else than the current set of billionaires.

I am sure there will be elections. Question is how fair they will be. Have a look at Russia's recent presidential election. Putin "winning" it was a given from the start. US voters need to be mindful of all the ways an electi

I don't think I have ever seen anything described as fascism if it happened before the 20th century. Mussolini seems to have coined the word and it described his regime and later ones. But even if the characteristics match also earlier
