I remember using my first Apple product years ago, it was an iPod touch 4th gen. The quality of the software on that thing was in a completely different league compared to anything I had used before.

I also installed the iOS 26 update recently. The competitive advantage of software polish that Apple had seems totally gone.

Add to that bugs in iCloud, AirDrop... I don't think I will be buying any more Apple devices for myself.

"There exist developers whose performance cannot be boosted by an LLM" is a really strong statement.

As a mostly-backend dev I stumbled across the "metadata in <head>" issue in my first hour of using NextJS for a toy project.

I kept wondering if there's something wrong with me or if a framework recommended in so many places can really be this shitty, until I read your comment.

Better yet, tell that to the Chinese who can't be bothered to try to get through the Great Firewall.

That's good... isn't it?

I would guess you could achieve similar results with a rat's or cat's brain, but I wonder at which point ethical dilemmas start creeping in. When the fungi learns to ask for food, perhaps?

Funny, people don't bother reading RFCs

I think the most valid point is the one about assumming responsibility, like taking care of a family or owning property instead of renting.

It's difficult and scary, and it's tempting to use the supposed equivalents the modern economy offers.

I think we need to make an effort to explain to young people that along with responsibility comes independence and life satisfaction.

I always assumed any TCP/UDP packets would get captured by the OS network stack in order to be sent only to the processes listening on specific ports.

I guess this is a security feature, since a process cannot even listen on some ports without having elevated privileges. I wouldn't expect another process being able to capture all this traffic anyway. This would also require a mechanism of sending the same stream to multiple processes (TCP listeners and all-protocol listeners).

But I didn't even know it was possible to capture traffic from multiple transport layer protocols using a syscall, perhaps that syscall requires elevated privileges itself..?

Well damn. I had a vague feeling that something like that was possible, but this is eye opening, thank you.

Could you please give some source on that info?

> e-mail is a universal protocol

I wonder how long that will be true, considering how difficult hosting your own server for your own domain is these days.

Good to know, I thought they wouldn't add it

> Without types, it is difficult to compose pipelines together.

I would gladly hear this argument expanded. It's really not obvious to me that that's the case.

Creator support is probably the reason why Grayjay doesn't have SponsorBlock integration.

What it's trying to bypass is walls being put in place by Youtube after it established itself as a monopoly by leveraging technologies that worked and succeeded because of their no-walls philosophy.

Please fix the title.

> No is supposed to mean no

One counterargument is that nobody forces you to use their services.

I think the root problem is that nobody produces personal hardware over which the average person could conveivably assume full control. I'm not even sure it's possible, given how advanced the computer technology is.

I'm interested, can you point me to some interviews or posts with him talking about it?

The posting's title is misleading. 1 in 5 Japanese workers in their 20s WHO RESIGN turn to resignation agencies.

I'm wondering the same thing.

Can someone outline the architectural limitations of using a smartphone modem for such network debugging/sniffing tasks?

"Proprietary packages from Intel and Microsoft were also seemingly included in the release's build tools"

Can anyone speak to this? To me, it's the most interesting bit in this article. Does this mean Winamp developers had access to libraries of Intel/MS that are not publicly available?

I wonder why the title of this HN posting was edited to only include the first sentence of the headline.

I wouldn't. And not because I believe it or lack a sense of humour.

Am I the only one feeling uneasy when the Bible is used for funny experiments like this?

Would you use an image of Christ on the cross to test an AI image modification model?

I didn't even think this could be controversial before reading the comments. I always assume what I post on social media is public.

Do others have different assumptions? Why would people get angry at a random person collecting data they published?

Maybe a push to eliminate proprietary operating systems and file formats from government-supported processes would be more effective? It could be legislative but it could also mean governments supporting FOSS development more.

Maybe it's wishful thinking, but this just seems to me like treating the symptoms instead of the root cause.

I think the story behind this page is interesting.

Anyone else gets redirected to their other language's version of the site, with the language switcher showing only that language and Ukrainian?

The Polish version even has its own domain: https://e-katalog.pl/post/3485/122-matricy-kamer-smartfonov-...

I haven't seen a site behave this way before. Maybe it's clever from the SEO standpoint?

I find the structure of the headline interesting, "AI" sounds to me like a single entity there.

I know it's a stylistic choice but it makes me wonder what the future holds in store for humanity.

Do you happen to keep your script public? I would enjoy taking a look at it to learn something.
