America has the most progressive tax system in the world. There is no other country where the ultra rich pay such percentage of the tax burden. Fuck off with this "Left in the US is center in Europe" bullshit. The EU wishes they

I'm not sure I understand what you're getting at. You seem to be saying the "free speech absolutists" getting upset about censorship in the EU is a bad thing. While, at the same time, saying them not getting upset ab

The motivation is that they keep getting away with it. And they're going to keep getting away with it until society decides we're going to stop tolerating shit like that.

Awesome. Let's all start using this on HN so we end up with a bunch of broken links in a few years

Only the people who can't make eye contact with others interpreted your comment as hostile. Unfortunately, that describes a high number of people on this site.

Only 70 years? If that's the case, why isn't it solved yet? Just rent 4,000 computers and have it done in less than a week.

How do you have better odds at a casino? Is the cut Kalshi takes so big that it makes the odds bad for both sides?

Just to make sure I'm understanding, you're saying that Google payed someone (presumably Trump), who then went and convinced a Clinton appointed judge who has ruled against Trump in the past to give the case to Google? Is that act

On the contrary, you and Anthropic are being disingenuous by pretending that a usage reduction is actually an increase. Especially when the 20x max plan isn't actually anywhere near 20x, as people have recently realized.

> Polls show the population regrets Brexit 57%? Sorry, but a poll of 57% is a tossup. And could even swings the other way when you factor in closet brexiters/trumpers/etc in polls like these

That is the point. It's a way to get the value of a service you don't like, while signaling to everyone that you're too virtuous to use the service you're getting value out of.

It reminds me of that "stone soup" story. 1. I can make turn a stone and water into a delicious soup "17 year olds, learn to build an LLM from scratch" 2. This soup would be more delicious if we add a few carrots. Does

I ditched Claude Code $200/month a couple of months ago in favor of Codex $200/month. The value is night and day. 1. No 5 hour usage limit 2. Weekly usage gets reset CONSTANTLY. It's crazy. The longest I've ever seen

Just about everyone on HN should hate restrictions like these. Yet the second an American company tries to offer fewer restrictions on a model, the masses (including HN users) beg for them, and try to crucify the person attempting to offe

Why do you want the people risking their lives to protect your freedom to have worse artillery? I don't understand this thinking at all. If my country is going to shoot something, I want them to be able to control what actually gets h

Nope. Apple wants to maximize profits. They clearly make more at lower prices. Source: the fact that they had lower prices until they were forced to increase them. They will be hoping to return to a more optimal price point as soon as the

Yes, Snapchat does this. Apps absolutely have the ability to know when a screenshot is taken.

Not sure why you think anyone is suggesting that non-occluding watermarks are a gripe people have with X. GP is saying that BS gets a pass where X would not for a user hostile action.

The amount that OpenAI resets their quotas is nuts. It's like, every 2 days I swear. Feels so fucking good. Whenever I think about switching my $200 plan back to Claude for a month I'm reminded that they still have a 5 hour usage

Sounds like we're in agreement that a layoff can be done just fine and humanely in a group setting over Zoom.

There is nothing inhumane about announcing layoffs over Zoom though. Hell I'd prefer to be laid off in the least personal way possible because I'm a grown-ass adult who doesn't need my company to treat my like a child. Tell m

I consistently buy ground beef on sale for $5/pound. Looking at walmart.com right now, they are selling it for $6.44/pound. Maybe people think cooking is expensive because they, for some odd reason, are paying $5 for a half pound

by Petersipoi 1mo ago
I really want the "cooking is too expensive" crowd to show me where they're getting their cheap food. I would struggle to make a homemade burger cost as much as a McDonalds quarter pounder. Even if I used twice as much beef.

> not even a double digit percentage That's actually crazy if that's as low as you dare guess. I would have easily guessed it was like, a fraction of a percent. 1 in 10 would be fucking nuts.

I max out my $200/month Claude plan. You are obviously just not taking advantage of it to the same level as others. Which is fine. Don't pay for something you don't need. But I would definitely take a massive productivity
