It was super disorienting for me to see the cursor pointing different directions depending on which direction it was moving. I wonder if 1) it's actually going to be like that and not just an aesthetic for the ad, and 2) if I would eve

The body language thing really bothers me. Personally, if someone accuses me of lying, but I am actually telling the truth, I immediately start acting like a liar. It's really embarrassing and hard to explain. I can't believe such

I have always thought Satoshi must be dead (as a couple of past suspects are). How could someone not want one hundred BILLION dollars? There is no person alive who could resist that. I'm sorry, there's just not. To be fair, if Bac

Pardon me, but I think it's rather obvious that it worked this way? The real value of Anthropic is in the models that they spent hundreds of millions training. Anyone can build a frontend that does a loop, using the model to call tools

I was confused by "main menu" so I took a look and it is in the Help menu, for those wondering (I'm on Mac). I didn't know this existed but will totally use it now! Thanks!

There is also Firefox Focus. Been using it on iOS since it came out a few years ago. It integrates as an ad blocker for Safari, so I don't actually use Firefox itself (since as you mentioned, all browsers on iOS are just a wrapper to S

To add to this: the author is missing a major aspect of the Jevons paradox. They keep referencing "more efficient software developers," but the Jevons paradox isn't only about efficiency. The efficiency creates lower cost ,

The job of "software engineer" as we know it will end. Before the industrial revolution, shoemakers would make shoes. It was a specialized skill, meaning shoes were very expensive, so most people couldn't afford them. Then fa

Yes, we are doing all of the above except for the on-modem speed test, which we are working on. Having the installer run a test and talk with the customer is helpful, but a lot of people don't trust the installer. The incumbent ISPs ar

I work for a startup ISP, and I often wonder how we can better educate the end consumer about all this. I'm a developer but sometimes take customer support calls. One time a consumer had just gotten our 1Gbps symmetrical fiber installe

I think I see your point. But at the same time, I think even "HN readers" can recognize the quantum leap that we've recently experienced. What I'm pondering is a valid question for the HN community: is there any knowledg
