Given how poorly everything is going for the US thanks to these tariffs that certainly is a take. Brace yourself though, it's going to get worse!

> I do not think that reciprocal tariffs are actually the answer though. They hurt both sides and the US is not a rational enough actor to respond like you hope they will. The answer is in shifting trade away from the US and isolating th

I guess I should mention that I'm using the deep research assistant, not the quick one.

I think there should be more of it. Negatives for the Apple News model is that it's Apple only and there is no ad-free tier. It's also app locked so you can't use ad-blockers. But yes, something like Apple News with an ad-fre

It's really ludicrous that Safari doesn't let you configure the search bar. My number one complaint about it bar none.

Do you really think people are paying for these sites? I pay for my local newspaper, but I'm not going to be subscribing to dozens of newspapers, one is more than enough. If newspapers want more traffic they need to get together and of

Apple news manages to give access to a variety of mainstream sources for a fixed price. Unfortunately there is no way to block the ads and without an ad-free tier it's a no go for me.

It truly is a game changer. I often use it before the regular search now. And no joke, it doesn't just save time, I've had it find things that I actually couldn't doing manual search. The reason is because it often knows when

I think messages + database are extremely common in any sort of large application where you have data processing nodes. Postgresql actually has very good mechanisms to support message style communication, and as long as you design your mess

Outside of Musk companies? All the time? Google workspace doesn't train on your email. Gmail does. Any b2b targeted services absolutely protects customer IP. It's one of the most basic requirements.

If it were in the ToS I imagine there would be huge outcry and all the enterprise customers would leave immediately and sue.

Having done that, e.g. used rabbitmq plus postgres, honestly I wish I had just used postgresql for both messages and data. It would have been easier to manage by an order of magnitude, especially at scale and needing to satisfy enterprise

I thought about upgrading my macbook, but I have the M1 Max and it still doesn't feel slow, so I decided it'll probably last another two years. That said, now I feel like this price raise is maybe permanent. If so it will definite

In that case I doubt there will ever be a "winner" because these valuations are not based in reality.

What local news sources are going under? As far as I've seen not many actually are. I'm paying my local newspaper, it seems to be doing just fine.

Oracle DB may be excellent, but there is no chance I'd ever ever ever do business with Oracle due to their aggressive business practices.

Youtube paid works. People pay, get no ads. Kagi so far seems to be doing well for search too. One model may not work for all content types but to say that there is no alternative is straight up not true.

It's called paying for shit. Like we used to before everything went ad driven. You'd go and buy a magazine or a book or a newspaper. (Ironically, you often still got ads though, ugh).

FWIW AdGuard dev team is in Russia. Letting them proxy all your traffic is probably not the wisest move.

Because all those other browsers can still block ads. I use ubo lite for safari and it's largely fine.

Offering frequent customers discounts or free things is a practice as old as the ages. The thing that companies are trying now is the opposite. They profile you and decide how much you can and are willing to pay based on your wealth, lifest

No, that's not how insurance works, but it's how they want it to work. Usually when you get insurance through e.g. work, you get put into a pool that averages the costs and risks across the pool. That makes it's more affordab

Deny you medical care payouts based on your diet. Algorithmically increase prices on you. Increase your car insurance based on where you travel.

I agree, and I'm really against data surveillance. The data collected in this example is exactly what I'd expect, and frankly McDonalds should have the right to collect this. If you go to a local store all the time the owner will

From what I remember on the topic, batteries are not yet remotely close to dense enough to enable long haul flights. Even hydrogen electric doesn't cut it, and hydrogen fuel is much denser energy wise than conventional batteries. Perha

I assume being electric that the maintenance costs will also be much lower. How much do you spend annually on engine maintenance?
