We have the perfect answer to your statement; https://news.ycombinator.com/newpoll

The only appliance that should come from the factory with a microphone is the telephone.

It's just the transformer example does not sit correctly inside the EE domain definition of impede. Once you understand that word is not locked up to the EE domain, everything is fine (except in the EE world of course).

This is the only storage media I trust to outlive me. Everything else, including paper, will degrade.

Ok sure, but they're very heavily correlated as seen on the chart. You will never feel IR warm without UV burn unless you're already wearing sunblock or the source isn't the sun.

This is a very important detail. Adblock in 2026 is necessary and DNS will transparently do a lot of that work for you. It isn't just about lightning fast lookups and five-nines uptime anymore.

I promise you Bob isn't going to fix the long-term stupidity.

If their text is watermarked, then it is almost as if they smelled each other's output and decided to nest..

Sci-fi story in the making.

That's why you form leverage with 22k others that are in the same boat as you. The root with the users is the root that becomes trusted, which then becomes the root that resolves. Rolling-over and allowing ICANN to quietly get away with this is exactly what they want.

That isn't the correct problem. The 3rd level domain is going away, which can be reconqured via OpenNIC and mass re-adoption. There will surely be new problems, but owning will not be among those problems.

Instead of giving up, why can't all 22k .name owners move on to OpenNIC? They will not say no, you can't have that.

>All six are rated Low severity

This says it all. Nothing important was missing. This is marketing hype.

This is hilarious. They are legally kidnappers at this point. No reason to even stop the ride and let you get out for free.

I think software loyalty is stuck at an all time low. Even the OS wars are over. People are stuck with subscription models. Almost everything has a cloud-based or SaaS service that works on everything. Nobody cares enough to fight about what browser they are using unless it is to fiddle around with adblockers.

Both can be true. Progressing without innovation only works when your product is Coca-Cola or Bic lighters. FireFox as a name or brand is nowhere near it's former v1.0-3.0 glory days.

I was skeptical of LLMs making it to where we have them today, but the test results are evident, empirical, and hold up to hard scrutiny. I remain quite skeptical of a singularity event, GAI, and anything beyond what we've seen LLMs output today. It will get faster, cheaper, but not much smarter without another breakthrough. They will not be able to save the planet from their own pollution and overconsumption.

Yes, sometimes I forget the obvious. Fixed with a different Steven.

AI is really not "just software" anymore. It is able to discover facts and advance science. Hard to disagree that we're near or at the point where Artificial Intelligence has expanded reality into 4 quadrants:

objects that are not alive: dust, rocks, water, wood, hats, lego, aluminum, etc.

objects that are alive but not intelligent: trees, mold, staphylococcus, cancer, grapes, etc.

objects that are alive and intelligent: cats, Steven Tyler, dolphins, crows, dogs, elephants, etc.

and now intelligent but not alive: Fable, Grok, GPT, etc.

As an aside, the ring can be recorded and then used to discover damaged parts. If it sounds wrong, it is damaged.

The only mistake Flock has made in terms of general acceptance is leaving them closed-access. The right way to build this empire is to set all the cameras as public. When they're wide-open and everybody is free to watch (along with ads, of course) not enough will care about the privacy because they want to track their cheating boyfriend, Amazon delivery, and get live traffic and weather info.

Google made it work from 1999~2006 before SEO was a thing.

>Almost nobody objected to my characterization of Google and Bing search results, but people told me that I was wrong about Kagi. In some cases, people sent me their actual search results. In every such case, the search results did not contain a good result that I could see (e.g., for the seasonal forecast query, the search failed to return an up-to-date seasonal forecast) and was full of SEO spam. In one case, a person passed me both their list of Kagi filters as well as the search results they got without making claims that the results were good or bad, but people generally insisted the results were good even though the results both failed to link to a useful result and were full of spam except in cases where the user did something like pin GitHub to the top of their results, which worked for the queries where the goal was to download software that's hosted on GitHub, but of course completely fails for the other queries from the post.

This deserves to be a separate post. Kagi would be great if it were 10x less expensive. For the price that is paid, the very first click should deliver the answer or most relevant information to the search with five nines accuracy. Clicks that require a user to perform more digging or are simply rejected as spam should come with some SLA of 0.0001%

Funny how PayPal don't trust you to safely handle root but they will trust you to pay thousands in loans, credit, etc. What a joke.

I don't see this as anything but good news about AI progress, yet I can't help but think there will be spins about "AI taking away thousands more tech jobs"

Plug myspecificsmartphone+XDA into Google.

As 'cattail' is not officially taken, I have to assume they are oblivious to having a little fun.

The "real world" is long term results. Yes, this is a joke amount of money for building an OS if the goal is conquering desktops and holding the territory. It is obvious to everyone the "Year of the Linux Desktop" attitude with only $10M in funding isn't going to end the way they want.

>DHH loves to say he's making the year of Linux on desktop happen.

I'd stay away just for this reason alone. Anybody that says this is either joking or has no clue how the real world works.

The stock really didn't move much (+2%) with this big announcement. It is a city; not a short-term idea we can forget about in two weeks.
