mark336··on Why the bond market is doubting Fed chairman Warsh
Actually he said, we will leet the markets determine prices. What does that mean? That's not a policy. He's basically ssaying he'll let the markets crash who cares? Also Trump's war.

mark336··on The 'papers, please' era of the internet will decimate your privacy
Yes "good enough" is right. At least until the issue become important enough to seek a full proof method.
mark336··on Ask HN: What are you working on? (June 2026)
I am working ton Mixor a news comment site. http://www.asiaviewnews.com/gigabots/threads. It has posts about tech, and politics and a little finance. It's meant to be about anything. Right now you can post to start a new thread, and reply to existing threads. It has a bug on loading that I can't find the solution for, if you reload it should work. It also has a more recent issue, that I haven't renewed the ssl certificate for it, should work in Chrome if you click on the warning about visiting the website.

I am also working on an iOS app for video.

mark336··on Show HN: Clipto-fully local, natural language search over terabytes of media
I was recently thinking about the need for such a tool. I have a MacBookPro 2017, 16GB. It doesn't work. I like the idea though. I have other ideas.

mark336··on AI is just unauthorised plagiarism at a bigger scale
I thought fair use was dead after Napster
mark336··on AI is just unauthorised plagiarism at a bigger scale
>Learning from others at a small scale is not only socially acceptable, but is the foundation of how advancement works.

This is true, shows how human thought differs from AI. AI needs massive datasets to be coherent.

mark336··on AI-assisted engineers are burning out, is this fine?
This was bound to happen. Probably won't get better, but will mean we will need more emphasis on mental health.
mark336··on US Government releases first batch of UAP documents and videos
Trump is trying to fool, he releases data without metadata and doesn't release info about government SAPs on UAPs. Like reverse engineering or biologics. Boring.

It's still funny that it took the President to release these pics and you all are like "its a bird".

mark336··on Trump's threats are giving Iran a reason for wanting a nuclear weapon
Last month Trump threatened to destroy the Iranian civilization. Doesn't this threat precisely give Iran a reason for wanting a nuclear weapon? I have a link to an April 7th article quoting his threat in th url above. I admit I did not think of this logic, I saw an article saying something similar the other day, but I can't find the link.

mark336··on Artemis II heat shield same as Artemis 1
The heat shield in the Artemis I test flight failed. Now the Artemis II is using the same heat shield because to redesign would have taken 18 months or more. The heat shield failed because of the trajectory where pressure swings caused cracks in the shield. So they are now going to alter the trajectory where the same pressure swings won't exist. It sounds really risky to me.
mark336··on Status: Tariff Refunds
Companies will get refunds, but consumers won't because companies will keep the profits.
mark336··on Dow drops 600 points as confusion grows after U.S. tariffs
There is no doubt the tarrifs are evil, but another question is why aren't companies eating the tariffs?: https://asiaviewnews.com/gigabots/threads?p=100054
mark336··on Trump steals 50M barrels of oil from Venezuela
Ok ok I shouldn't have used "steals". My emotions got the better of me. Venezuela kept some oil the U.S. bought. But the charges of Narco-terrorism against Maduro are ridiculous.
mark336··on Trump administration threatens to strip Harvard University of lucrative patents
The patent system is a oke. They should have something like temporary patents with lifespans from 3 mo.s to 3 years. Or rule saying they can allow a limited number of copycats as long as they try to differentiate at minimum a little.
mark336··on Google loses US appeal over app store reforms in Epic Games case
I am not against google but apple should get the same treatment.

mark336··on White House ends all trade talks with Canada over digital services tax
tech policy aside, I think this is an intelligent move as it consolidates the European and Canadian resistance to MAGA.
