What do you mean by "same people"? Who are these people? The comment you're responding to certainly doesn't specify, but somehow you know that they're the same as the people who said whatever batshit thing you think

I am a good hacker, and I find this interesting. This is on topic and should not be flagged. When an influential tech leader says "Silicon Valley can’t be neutral any longer", I want to hear what they have to say. I want to hear w

I don't think you're being fair. You're turning "I don't like the framing" into "a culture war".

Indiscriminate can be defined as "done at random or without careful judgment" - I think the latter part of that definition perfectly describes ELITE. I find it nonsensical to dismiss an anti-ICE argument because of one word.

Most macOS keyboard commands that let you cycle between things (like windows or applications) can be "reversed" by adding the SHIFT key. So CMD+TAB+SHIFT cycles in the opposite order of from CMD+TAB, etc.

Good luck trying to paint the picture that AppleCare is a waste of money. I've owned hundreds of Apple products since AppleCare became a thing. I've "had to use it" once, and that one use replaced a $4500 product for $0.

In the context of Hacker News, when the "worked conclusions" are that of an AI (however accurate or well trained), yes, I suspect that people tend to prefer that less than the opinion of a random stranger. I'm here for the pe

I obviously can't say for sure, but my guess for why you're being downvoted: we don't need humans telling us what the AIs think. We're all capable of knowing that for ourselves. What I'd guess most of us are interes

I think ousting Musk would be a marketing win for Tesla, and likely the only path to staying in business at this point. Most people I talk to about Tesla, some of whom were diehard Musk-can-do-no-wrong fans as recently as last year, tend to

I've actually only put about 50k miles on myself, but it's still perfect for my needs. Battery health isn't at 100% any more, but I still get an actual 250-300 miles of range. Mechanically, the car is solid. Doesn't ratt

Didn't DeepSeek train on Nvidia hardware though? I can't see how DeepSeek hurts Nvidia, if Nvidia is what enables DeepSeek.

To be fair, you can choose still by declining employer provided/subsidized coverage. The cost of doing so, of course, makes it very much not worth it.
