Both Andreeson and Elon knew exactly how to take advantage of the times to make money. Both are true "failed" billionaires, Netscape and "PayPal" as the examples. Latter in quotes since Musk didn't contribute much m

Definitely don't recommend that since it works when it does and doesn't otherwise. Most users will not end up happy trying to make it work since the alternative is more common. This isn't a fault of TinyGo itself, it is just

I really agree with a lot of this but also think it may be hitting a bit too hard. It may be most applicable to engineer founders. My anecdote is that, after a few stings with non-technical founders, a doc etc will not improve the chances t

Schools getting blown up is also a bummer. Everything about this situation and maybe the world is a bummer. As soon as we stop treating these as bummers, there is literally nothing stopping a cycle of destruction. There may not be anyways,

The article focuses on offshore accounts but as far as I know, buy - borrow - die doesn't require offshore accounts.

I randomly found that post on the top page of Google just searching for "Gemini Live" interestingly enough. Does it mean the post was deleted and then restored? Trying to make sense of this whole thread which is arguably more conf

This is the problem. He does interview extremely influential people, even state leaders like Modi. The content is not great but many people will buy it just from the name power alone. Unfortunately he seems to be a truly influential person.

While I have some vague recollection of homebrew feeling slow in the past I don't know when - I want to say well before Nov 2025. And recently absolutely no such feeling, and great features like auto update handling, etc just working.

I also needed to reread that paragraph a few times but it seems a law professor was commenting on the case with an expression of what the hospital could have been thinking, not that anyone actually said anything about being a bad mother.

There are those times we may be seeing the source of LLM language training. I had the same reaction of sounding like one but agree it's likely not.

Salts are fixed - so if you salt with, i.e. the email address, any attacker will also do that. The key derivation strategy of password managers is already known. Especially in a browser, salting strategy cannot be hidden so it's a know

I was looking forward to good UX accessing HBO through Netflix. Too bad, but looking forward to good UX accessing HBO, and paramount (?) some day down the line through Netflix when this converges.

Don't need to use China even, Microsoft, or Palantir, etc will continue to support the US military, likely using Google technology in the process (Guava, gRPC maybe?, k8s assuredly? etc). Sorry but if you truly believe in technology no

Password managers generally send a hash but for almost all services I would say plain text password is standard, I would definitely go with something like firebase or auth0 vs rolling your own auth in most normal situations. The poster is e

I think the main issue people have with this comment is the word "recent" and to a lesser degree "U.S.". All countries have done anything to further their goals regardless of any common point of agreement, some times fra

One issue I found is that for new projects, it is much harder to market now. shownew is flooded and subreddits have turned up their spam filters high so quality projects will have trouble getting eyes without significant social activity bef

Ah good reminder to see if I should repatch with revanced. Not that I actually use YouTube on my phone much, I mostly catch up on SmartTube on weekends. But great to be in control.

Interesting - I was surprised to see a note on Wefunder, though the opposite direction that Canada residents aren't allowed to use the platform to invest. For context, no problem from Japan. It sounds like Canada has some unique regula

Agree completely, just curious to understand better this > "you do you, but the supply runs out next week". What's the supply referring to here? Not able to follow what this is saying.

One big reason I tend to build on GCP instead of AWS is it's much easier to use with Terraform. GCP's APIs are generally defined as a semantic unit while AWS has ad-hoc resources that get strung together by the console or CLIs, no

Ok ok, it is indeed keys to AI APIs. I know it's not kosher to admit to that on HN anymore but it's the reality for me at least. Unfortunately local models just can't support development of products using them.

I think it's common to have dev not production secrets there, and am reading the blurb about production secrets as non-local secrets. Even dev keys are a pain if they get leaked. The idea seems nice with a simple yet effective implemen

Haven't used Nova for a while and at first was curious if this was good for bringing it back from unmaintenance. The heavy focus on sustainability and marketing in this blog makes it seem unlikely though. Switched to Pear when Nova got

I was happy to see them give this clear headline > Linux isn’t especially complicated on a daily basis, but you have to be willing to solve your own problems That being said, given the huge uptick in Linux articles lately, I can only bel

Anyone suggesting "you should too" switch to Linux is signing up to a whole lot of troubleshooting work for their friends that listened to them. Anyone somewhat technical, sure, but not anyone.
