I'm in the same camp, and I go step further and avoid places where fear is the main tune.

Mentions the war in Ukraine but does not mention the genocide (or ethnic cleansing, choose whatever more comfortable for you) in Gaza. I realise this will get downvoted or even flagged but the genocide contributed to bringing Trump to power and the descent into literal lawlessness. Or rule by dictatorship.

> Who reads his blog posts like these?

I skim them to figure out which direction the wind is blowing for our technocrat overlords. The last article of his I read a few weeks ago was completely mask-off, also around the same time as the Zuckerberg "bring back masculine energy" interview. This essay feels softened, almost hedging in the same vein as the "How do you do, fellow kids?" meme.

Billionaires are interesting people, and I can't help but wonder how the next decade will be for them and the countries where they hold the bulk of their wealth.


Hold on. I thought no phones K-12 all day was normal?

Regardless, are there any good examples of projects generated by LLMs? There was a game like Angry Birds. But that was long time ago. I did some simple 'games'. If it's easy there should be a lot of open source projects, right?

Simple net worth tracking: https://argos.techbrohomelab.xyz

Wanted to start tracking my net worth over weeks/years but wasn't impressed with my options being 1. Boring spreadsheet 2. Half cooked self hosted budgeting app 3. Pay X/month for third party budgeting app

Just wanted simple net worth tracking with a nice easy to use web app.

Maybe in the future i'll add some Plaid syncing of accounts but currently manual inputs for all accounts


Yes. There is a finite $ value on a human life from a government point of view.

For your loved ones it is infinite.

But for a government with X funds and Y lives to save, there has to be a price.

If someone ejects on every little problem, you spend billions more on that and billions less on some other life saving initiatives.

Putting aside the bad ejection survival stats.


There was also some talk of feeling like he was falling but of course with no vision you will have no idea what way you are going based on you senses.

Don't these planes have the basic instruments as a backup to the helmet display?


Hi HN,

I built BiteCritic ([App Store Link: https://apps.apple.com/ph/app/bitecritic/id6743010069]) because I was frustrated trying to find the best dish using platforms focused only on venues. It's tough to know what's actually good to eat at a specific restaurant, or where the absolute best version of that taco or ramen bowl is hiding.

BiteCritic flips this by focusing entirely on rating and discovering food based on taste. You can rate specific dishes, search for the best local versions of what you're craving (not just restaurants serving it), and see top-rated items on a restaurant's menu before you order.

The project is built as a monorepo using Next.js, NestJS, Prisma, and PostgreSQL, running entirely on Google Cloud. Current operating costs are around $60/month. We also support 7 languages.

You can access it from https://bitecritic.com

Would love to hear your feedback and answer any questions!

Thanks!


Cynical take would be it is a free soldier behind enemy lines.

After being involved in cryptocurrency trading for some time, I heard about the BYDFi platform. Out of curiosity and exploration of new opportunities, I signed up and used it for two months now. These two months of experience have made me have a deep understanding of BYDFi.

> quality of clothing and price are completely disconnected now.

I bought some fake branded tshirts while visiting Turkey. The quality of cotton was better, than original brand sold in UK!


I enjoyed your website far too much. I’m gonna go permanently cancel our retros.

Mint is wonderful for most people, from non-experts to technical users.

Working on a full on Riichi Mahjong web client because I really like the game and want to make a more serious english client without anime.

Did it also to learn rust, which made it easy to convert the engine code into webassembly and create a hand score calculator for the game :)! https://cerpins.com/mahjong-tool

Plans now are to finish the client, then freshen up the calculator with some QOL and visuals, surely a bug fix might be needed here and there as well.


A libertarian will argue that fraud is an act that is not the same as free speech and hence is not covered by free speech. I don't agree with the libertarian viewpoints overall, however I will acknowledge they have a point about the distinction between those two things.

If it's a private University, that seems consistent.

Nice work!

Because?..

Protest. Go onto the streets. Doing nothing means accepting the way things are

Most wikipages contain very broad surface level knowledge, wouldn't that be considered cross-language?

For books depicting sex acts, banning such books from public elementary and middle school libraries is reasonable. Is it not?

Does there exist any example of an administration (federal or state) successfully prohibiting the private sale of an LGBTQ book?


> but expecting test scores to improve dramatically like this is not realistic

That seems like a problem for the reader, not a problem with the text. Why would the reader expect this? Is it the use of present tense in the title rather than past tense?


Sounds like you are making fast progress. Congrats!

I wanted to check it out but using Brave Browser and Chrome on a Samsung A54 it took 10s+ to load. After a few seconds the spinner loaded, then the progress bar moved and then restarted and then loaded.


The deportations are just flashy cruelty to obscure everything else.

> Which cases ended in some kind of enforcement?

By design there's not going to be a direct link to a refusal and the retaliation.

For example, the government has a lot of discretion with something like this: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Federal_Trade_Commission_v._....

You don't want to be fighting an antitrust lawsuit against an administration that has a personal vendetta against you.
