   Well that's a right, I'm asking for an actual interface, like USB-C or a protocol e.g. HTTP.

   Well that's the point, you do want information in and out, including the ability to send instructions. Call it "smart" or "connected" or whatever marketing words you prefer, the point is having affordances that give

   Oh no ... I think you do actually want those. It's quite amazing to receive a notification from your dryer that it finished its cycle. What you do not want instead is : - being mandatory - requiring a proprietary application - expectin

   The same reasons we keep on teaching kids to read, write, do math, sketch, take photos, etc ... because it is fun, empowering and important. Most of them will never become professional actors, authors, mathematicians, artists, photographers

   I wish but honestly that's unrealistic because a lot, if not most, people related to HN are currently their livelihood linked to AI, in one way or another. Most companies, in software or not, are imposing minimum (after backtracking to

   The one software company, mature now, that is supposed to be at the absolute peak of software development AND simultaneously at "alignment", because it is its raison d'etre, can not manage do this right. It is a big red flag.

    Been doing it for years, decades even now, and IMHO it's like visiting a touristic place or any place public with strangers really : you have to keep your wits about you otherwise you will get mugged. If you setup your Website you will

    This is such a naive position though. The most successful companies of the last decade have precisely been ... selling usage data. Makes me wonder if, in 2026, the same people drive a car without realizing that yes it does actually pollute

    Indeed not Apple specific. That's also why there are different designs, e.g. in ear, over ear, open over ear, bone conduction, and technologies, e.g. noise cancelling, active noise cancelling, non voice filtering. Typically there are v

    Honestly after a while my ears just can't stay earbuds anymore, it's just painful. For long haul flights (over 6hours) I also bring over-ear headphones regardless of battery life.

    No, if I use a ruler or a pocket calculator they will reliabley give me the correct result. There is no gambling.

    CrossPoint at least only support ePub and BMP so they could have printed to a directory of BMPs.

    Fair enough but I trust CrowdSupply to keep them in check. I bought quite a few projects via CS and never been disappointed. They have too much trust from the community not to follow up, it's their most important differentiator versus

    Will it though? Do you think people will actually be more creative with this or will we get yet another e-ink device with a slightly different form factor, or a "less than a phone" with different constraints? In the end is the PCB

    Activists typically aren't secretive about their actions, on the contrary they tend to be as public as they can safely be. The setup though might be, if it's to prepare an event that might be crushed down before it even take place

    This "Non-Signatory Participants : Taiwan *" is so weird precisely because Taiwan is the one who started the Silicon shield few years ago by making TSMC central to the whole ecosystem.

    I wish there was another column with the estimated cost for each, with a specific date. Ideally also finding somehow (not sure what would be the right away) what is publicly available before running the test. It's quite a different out
