I'll add that cities in the U.S. west, which did most of their growing after cars were invented, just don't have what it takes. At this point they're trying to find a way to squeeze bike lanes into roads that were never desig

I transferred once in the Tokyo airport and honestly I just wanted to live there the rest of my life.

Good! I'm glad to know that some of the $20 I put into Anthropic API keys every few months goes to the people upon whose shoulders they are standing.

On the surface it's the difference between a few thousand people pirating a shared link to learn a new thing vs a billion dollar company stealing books to make more of a profit. That's the disconnect. However in this case there ar

That's why I like bandcamp. Artists choose the price for their music and I'm free to pay that price, or more, if I think that's fair compensation.

Here's another chart that shows just basic tariff revenue: https://www.politico.com/interactives/2025/trump-tariff-inco... It shows about $100 billion in tariff revenue growth since May, '25. Interesting

Damn if that's your work account I'd love to read what your other accounts say. This is the most coherent picture of what that guy is doing that I've ever read. Which sucks, because I know people like Biden tried to pave a wa

This is my biggest problem too, and it's not just my problem but Podman's problem. Lack of name recognition is big for sure compared to Docker, but to me this version mismatch problem is higher on the list and more sure to keep Po

Taking the morality of a company on its own isn't how I look at it, it's also the context. You might be right that if Mistral was born in the U.S. instead of France it would do the same shady stuff Anthropic and OpenAI are doing,

They stole share from Google because search is becoming obsolete, not because a new search engine came to town. It's like saying 5G stole market share from AOL's dial-up business. Search still has a use, and Google still takes &gt

Daaaaamn that makes a lot of sense then. For my limited use it doesn't add up but clearly the more deeply embedded the tool is the more it makes sense.

This is what I don't get. It's so much simpler to use the LLMs with other tools (aider for me) that I don't understand why people are avoiding the API creating monthly accounts to begin with. Is it cheaper? Is Claude Code rea

I noticed the lack of freshness too, but I look forward to mining it for the organizations and then visiting their jobs pages directly to see what's going on.

How well does it serve those constituents? Shutting off the water cut off 15% of Fort Garland's water revenue (while reallocating 1% of its water). That's a big dent in a budget that was probably directly keeping those tax payers&

> This isn't about logic. Clearly you proved that. What has sexual connotations is wildly subjective and plucking the opinion of one author/poet's critique from 15 years ago doesn't make it fact today.

Who are you to judge what's a wank bank and what's not? And what wank bank do you go to? The logo doesn't even have breasts.

Cool me too but I don't farm. I'm also probably missing out on resources that my taxes support. Are you? Did those agencies you dealt with provide you with grants that you depended on to stay in business? Did those grants rely on

My partner works directly with farmers and USDA folks. Farmers have long, established relationships with USDA people and field offices. It's not always perfect and the relationships aren't always great but it's people they kn

One problem with that is that the department of agriculture already has the relationships with farmers and producers. Now farmers who want to make a few extra bucks with some wind turbines or solar (which works well in tandem with growing s

Nothing says, "Change out the logo for something that doesn't make my clients tingle in an uncomfortable way" like the MIT license.

It's an MIT licensed, open project. Fork it and change the icon to your favorite white-bread corporate logo if you want. It would probably take less time than complaining about it on HN.

Similarly our news site is considering a live-blog feature and I'm wondering if AT Proto would be a fun way to do it.

It doesn't work for headless chrome, sure. The thing is that often, for threats like this to work they need lots scale, and they need it cheaply because the actors are just throwing a wide net and hoping to catch it. Headless chrome do

I worked at a place once where the CEO basically said that it's a lot easier to raise money when you don't need it than to raise it when you do. The US economy is looking pretty weird with a bunch of conflicting predictors. Maybe
