stupidest response. There are tons of gov waste that's 100 times more expensive, less effective without any returns. Wars are lot more expensive, net negative for common folks (positive for war machinery though..) And out of all this,

Anthropic subsidizes the fees when devs use their API within their own Claude code product. They do not give any such discount when the devs use their API outside their product. Seems fair enough. But looks like lots of developers expect t

They do not monetize but may do probably something worse, infotize or narratize (just invented words). By using an almost neutral, altruistic platform to subtly control/constrain the narratives on certain tech overlords. As much as I l

We often think market is rational but it is not. If it is, then BYD would be priced like Tesla, and Tesla would have been priced like BYD.

when I saw 18F, CISA, USDS were targeted by DOGE, everything was clear. They were just cutting all the good muscle and leaving the bad fat :(

I thought HN crowd is smarter than average crowd, but surprised to see so many folks supporting this fraud. If they sold just "note taking service" then it does not matter what they do behind the scene or how they scale up the ser

you are barking at the wrong tree. Banks are the real culprits here. Visa/MC are perhaps the front face.

if merchants pay anywhere between 2% to 3%, how is the bank able to pay 3.5% for purchases to your corp card customers? Simple math says the bank would lose money on this which of course won't be true. What am I missing?

This is sad. I have worked with many federal agencies including EPA and have seen firsthand how large corporations try to influence or circumvent the law without regard for people or the environment. The EPA isn’t as bloated as people think

Trickle down theory is so old and boring. Instead, you can try this: If you tax the rich, they would lose sleep. If they lose sleep, they would be tired all the day and won't be able to work at optimal level. And if the rich do not w

In my experience, team efficiency does not improve linearly with head count. A 100-person team may be 2 or 3 times more productive than a 10-person team. Collaboration efforts (process, bureaucracy, calls, meetings, mails, chats) increase e

while all of the above engineering solutions work, I wish they adopt a human centric solution. When there is too much demand and too little inventory, they could introduce some kind of lottery system where they accept partial payments throu

Apart from the above differences, another important difference is that OLAP is often columnar based, as opposed to the typical OLTP being row-based. So, OLAP queries use different kinds of index. Snowflake has introduced Hybrid tables where

I tend to ignore positive reviews in general as they can be bought. Negative reviews are more reliable in identifying any common pattern of problems with a particular product. I guess this tool will be helpful in that case.

Of course, I totally agree that EU has to work on their common standards to run/startup a business.. and it is likely affecting their competitiveness (along with few other factors). I should have added the context for my earlier commen

Both Apple and Microsoft are already trillion dollar companies. Why do they get so much greedy to get even more money with ads? This also ends up giving a very bad user experience to their billions of customers, pretty much the entire plane

Buying the debt is different than paying off the debt. I see so many comments here assuming that to buy the company totally (or to have total control over a company), one should pay off all debts of the company. It is simply not true. I fee

Thank you. Any idea on the impact of SEO for public facing websites using HTMX? Is it as simple as just rewriting URLs? React needs work arounds to overcome SEO issues.

My product has the typical SPA front-end and API backend. I understand that with HTMX, those API backends would have to return HTML fragments instead of JSON data (or another server endpoint that returns HTML fragments). I have few question

I want to embed phone calls (and store the conversation details) within my custom webapp which is a light CRM. Is there any simpler SaaS plugin for that? or perhaps just Twilio API is good enough?

Let the customers have the choice to decide whether they want choice or not. Historically, more choices have always benefitted the common folks in the end.

yeah, agree that gatekeepers are needed. But why only Apple and Google should be the gatekeepers? why not others? why not crowd curated, open sourced gatekeeping for at least the nerdy folks? And we all know that the current gatekeeping is
