I'm guessing, given they're relying on private financing, the ability to reuse assets from TP1 is the major reason to make it a sequel instead of a new IP. Personally I liked TP1 a…

They are not selling at a loss though. The real issue here is that businesses such as Microsoft do not exist to serve a market or make enough money to survive and pay their employe…

That wasn't what this study was investigating.

Some of the other examples you could maybe say are just poor industrial design or bad execution of a potentially workable idea, but the Intel MBP thermal debacle was definitely the…

> It's since november 2025, the so called "inflection point", that I'm still wondering for who coding agents become "really good". The answer is "for lots of people, but not you". …

30 seconds searching GitHub turned up this: https://github.com/limpy183-dev/Photoshop-clone

Dependency versions are also locked for npm projects via package-lock.json, and this has been the default behaviour for years. The version ranges specified in package.json don't me…

The point is that "part" of the appreciation appears here to be all of the appreciation. Yes, the context of who created a piece of art will have an affect on how you interpret it.…

Lol, this is SOP for the British state. There has been a revolving door between the civil service and the private sector for decades. You cannot conceive of how many billions have …

For pre-training, yes. But for post-training you need high-quality labelled datasets for reinforcement learning. So far AI has been most successful in coding, because you can trans…

It's hilarious to me to see the same kind of engineer, who throughout my career have constantly bitched and moaned about team meetings, agile ceremonies, issue trackers, backlogs, …

It seems like this policy will help them win at contributor poker in the short term, but lose in the end. The next generation of developers will, for better or worse, grow up using…

I think both got taken by surprise. Last year the talk was that AI was a bubble, demand was soft, pilots projects were failing, etc. Model providers still believed, but thought the…

Bear in mind, in the same survey this article is talking about, nothing and nobody had an overall positive rating amongst those polled. So yeah, AI is unpopular, but it's just one …

I think this touch-only idea would be more viable if we had far better haptic feedback from screens. All the fancy gestures and fluidic UI don't help when your only means of intera…

> Silicon Valley owes a moral debt to the country that made its rise possible I would agree with that, but its debt is to the people of that country, not their current government. …

Are you kidding? Check out the index page for this "blog": https://smarterarticles.co.uk/ A new long-form article, published every day, like clockwork, since the 1st of June 2025. …

Hey bcherny, I'm confused as to what's happening here. The linked issue was closed, with you seeming to imply there's no actual problem, people are just misunderstanding the hidden…

The strategic playbook of the web era said: Get a huge userbase of normies, then figure out how to monetise them (usually via advertising). OpenAI stumbled into the userbase via Ch…

If you include a word like innovating in quotes it typically implies that you're quoting it from the link. It can also signify irony, but in a context like HN where we're discussin…

I didn't mean it as condescending. I meant it literally is cute: A neat idea that is quite cool in its execution.

Cute idea, but you're never gonna blow your token budget on output. Input tokens are the bottleneck, because the agent's ingesting swathes of skills, directory trees, code files, t…

Did Anthropic run Claude in a loop and tell it "work on our pricing and usage strategy", or something? As far as I can tell, they now have Free, Pro, Max x5, Max x20, Team, and Ent…

> I don't know how long this pace will last. I suspect that bugs are reported faster than they are written, so we could in fact be purging a long backlog Hopefully these same tools…

Nah, blaming AI is too easy. It's more likely that Apple's design culture got rotted out under Alan Dye https://daringfireball.net/2025/12/bad_dye_job Now that Dye is gone, I still…
