Maybe that's because back then it just didn't affect enough people at the same time. They weren't too big to fail.

With regards to b), what is the evidence that they actually deliver on this promise?

Yeah, that's just a copium answer from people who simply want to hand wave away the issue instead of admitting they have no good answers. Like a politician who's asked about this i…

If that's how you feel, maybe the applications you're making are too simple to need any of your unique contribution. The answer could be to just push further, and try solving harde…

This depends entirely on your local laws and the kinds of loans banks offer. In most places, you can only get recourse mortgages. You will be liable for the rest of the mortgage, i…

>The point of Bitcoin is to avoid exactly that sort of trust relationship, otherwise use the banking system. Most participants don't care about this. For almost everyone, the point…

Ah, then yeah, in that case, it'd be basically over. Maybe large exchanges would try to step in to make a fresh chain based on their combined account data, and just drop the people…

In practice, what you really need is consensus. As long as enough of the important participants agree, that's how it will be. And since there are millions of identical copies of th…

Yeah, it makes it sound like your attention is given as an act of charity. A lot of online discourse tends to be very "creator-first" framed, rather than "audience-first".

This has to be intentional, right?

And yet almost all of the most popular sports leagues in the US have a salary cap rule.

"Local history" is a very popular feature in the JetBrains IDEs (just search HN comments), and I remember similar tools appearing on HN several times in the past (for example https…

Yeah, but that's not the same, as most readers will just skip over that. What I said is more similar to HN's monthly "who's hiring" threads or "what are you working on" threads. Li…

I think the problem with such places is, they just become a dump for self-promotion by people who otherwise don't participate at all. The opposite of an actual community. That's wh…

Usually online communities have dedicated days for such things. Like a "side project Sunday" or such, with one large thread.

Even if you trust the intentions of whoever you're giving your data to, you may not trust their ability to keep it safe from data breaches. Those happen all the time.

It's always good to have viable alternatives, if only to prevent vendor lock-in in case they make some drastic changes in policy or pricing.

Make it port Firefox's engine to iOS, that's something people would actually use (in countries where Apple is forced to allow other browser engines).

Copilot plan limits are however "per prompt", and prompts that ask the agent to do a lot of stuff with a large context are obviously going to be more expensive to run than prompts …

Well they are doing the same to website owners who rely on human visitors for their revenue streams. Both scraping and on-demand agent-driven interactions erode that. So you could …

Without breaking legitimate clients? At some point it becomes easier to just reevaluate the business model. Or just make a superior product.

The endgame is a small background agent that runs Claude Code every once in a while, inspects its traffic, and adjusts on the fly.

That will only work as long as there is an active "the web" to search. Unless the models get smart enough to figure out the answer from scratch.

Speaking of the macOS menu bar, is there some way to make it overflow into a hidden area behind an "expand" button that would appear when there is no more room, like the notificati…
