This might be financial prudence of sorts - doesn't something like 80% of their yearly monetary contributions come from Google, particularly for search partnerships? If they are concerned that Google will start paying them less because

Whether or not it is the government's job is to be regulating a specific thing is not as straightforward of an issue as it may seem.

This is a really awesome project! If you have time/interest, you could try to build a simple http server now, that your browser could communicate with. Then you could try to implement a simple version of TCP/IP, and look into how

to_pandas has a dependency on pandas - it is not the biggest of deals, but worth keeping in mind.

There are tropes on both sides of this conversation, but whatever. Quote the guidelines to your mom.

Polars took a lot of ideas from Pandas and made them better - calling it "inferior in every way" is all sorts of disrespectful :P Unfortunately, there are a lot of third party libraries that work with Pandas that do not work wit

Are the worn, boring tropes false? Are they worth writing out again?

The real question is - did you buy 10s of printers because you needed them for the business, or did you start the business to buy 10s of printers :P

Calling PETG "utterly problem free" is quite a stretch lol. PLA is pretty objectively much easier to print than PETG, and perhaps than all the popular filament types out there, especially if you are trying to print anything where

In many ways HN is Reddit in denial at this point :) Comments and upvotes that are based mostly on vibes, with depth and discussion usually happening somewhere towards the middle of the comment tree.

I think both of us are ultimately wary of using the wrong tool for the job. I see your point, even though my experience has been somewhat the opposite. E.g. a pipeline that used to work fast enough/at all up until some point in time be

I'd say the author's thoughts are valid for basic data processing. Outside of that, most of claims in this article, such as: "We're moving towards a simpler world where most tabular data can be processed on a single larg

People who had to pay for their undergrad education in prestigious US colleges do. https://www.brookings.edu/articles/biden-is-right-a-lot-of-s... But hey, don't let basic research get in the way of confidence, am

The US is the world leader in suing in general, and yet it produces a lot more research than most other legally friendly places... how's that?

Did I use the word "all" anywhere in my comment? There are good developers in Europe. What I am saying is that there would have been even more of them had the incentives not been so lackluster. More talent seems to generally resul

It is, at this point, an easily verifiable fact that software engineering jobs in Europe are en masse poorly paid relative to the equivalent positions in the US, and the majority of the EU companies that actually pay well are actually US ba

Well both sides could be right, no? I don't think it is necessarily uncharitable to note that lack of experience could cause developers to have strongly held, yet potentially invalid opinions about the practical applications of a techn

It's definitely anecdotal - and I agree about steering the robot. I find that analysis is harder than creation usually.

Absolutely - one of my favorite uses of Aider is telling it to edit config files/small utility scripts for me. It has prompted me to write more comments and more descriptive variable names to make the process smoother, which is a win b

I have found that HN is, ironically, a horrible place to post experimental work on, with a few exceptions - e.g. things "written in Rust" etc. I think it's because the majority of the commentators here haven't really mad

"You should remain in charge, and best way to do that is to either not use agentic workflows at all (just talk to Gemini 2.5/3 Pro in AI Studio) or use OpenCode, which is like Claude Code, but it shows you all the code changes in
