For the same reason they charge you for running Word, even though you're the one who has to write, I guess?

I think i will have to disagree.

When you are not making a simple website, but an actually enterprise system, AI just simply can't do that without making any bugs or start to hallucinate.


I am using dependabot, grouped dependencies once a week.

We started by having it doing PR for every single dependencies update every day, but that was a little too much noise

But i depends on how big your team is


Thanks for the feedback! I'm working on it now. Will push to GitHub soon with a basic Hono + D1 + Stripe setup you can actually run. I'll share it here when it's ready.

You're right, my apologies. I should have waited until the code was ready to try. I'll come back with a working demo soon. Thanks for pointing this out.

Hi HN, I’m an independent researcher (former systems thinking background). I wrote a Python script to test a hypothesis: that financial models often undervalue thermodynamic efficiency (Creation/Negentropy vs Bureaucratic Drag). I tested a simple metric: R&D / SG&A on the S&P 100. I expected noise, but found a statistically significant positive correlation (0.376, p=0.0168). It seems to act as a filter for identifying high-volatility 'growth' engines versus stagnating incumbents.

Code (Python/yfinance/scipy) is open source: https://github.com/gmirsky2/mirsky-ratio-analysis Full methodology paper is on Zenodo: https://zenodo.org/records/17956159

Curious if anyone in quant finance has seen a similar pure-ratio metric used before.


Currently looking for a new role in biotech and it seems like at many companies it is almost 40:1 india vs united states roles being posted. This is in R&D not even manufacturing.

After a quick glance, it seems that you don’t maintain the reading/writing status in the shared memory. That means you have to make a syacall in every read/write call. You could look into the kaze-core for an alternative implementation, which doesn’t require any syscall if possible.

Btw, kaze-core uses a `used` atomic variable, to avoid reading both readPos/writePos in routine - they are not atomic at all.


Great protocol, unfortunate name. Feels like the engineering equivalent of “we’ll fix the branding later” — and later never came.

Can confirm, we're dealing with one right now.

They coast for a while on passable work but it isn't sustained through multiple warnings. The day after we hit him with a PIP he performed a mass exfiltration.

Two weeks after we let him go, systems he had previously had access to were compromised from outside.

With remote workers, if they start underperforming, start revoking whatever access you can at the first warning. Most of the events were set in motion once he saw the writing on the wall. This one was a textbook case with such predictable timing it's absurd that he got as far as he did.

He also raised every red flag in the book during the hiring process (interviewers noted suspicions of AI use) and presented as too good to be true with perfect skills alignment and low salary requirements. At every point in the process we knew better.

An Open Platform to Backtest Trading Strategies(MVP)

Hey HN!

I built a platform to backtest any Trading strategy (currently MVP, and I'll continue if I see there's support/interest)

I've never found a profitable strategy, and stupidly lost money trying several strategies from scammers.

TBH I don't believe a profitable strategy exists. Now anyone can proof me wrong :)

I created a platform which allows you to create (or add from Tradingview, python) your trading strategy, and analyses how would perform on historical data.

Tired of fake traders promising guaranteed returns, I build this for me, and sharing with everyone, to see if anyone would want it.

No sign-ups, no hidden fees, no marketing fluff—just paste your code, or add your strategy and run backtests with real market data.

It automatically tells you if your strategy is profitable, showing the backtesting trades, statistics etc.

What this is NOT? A trading platform, or a promise of profits. In fact, is the opposite.

The vision:

1. MVP of the backtesting platform (check audience) 2. Improvement of the platform 3. Run infinte agentic strategies to see if we find a profitable one (aparently rentec did it years ago, but no one knows how?)

I'd be interested in feedback to know your thoughts, and if its an interesting project .

Try it out, and let me know how it performs with your strategies.

I'm Pablo, and I built this in a few days as a side project.

GitHub: The community who solved the market, will publish soon! Live demo: https://backtesting-dashboard-sage.vercel.app


Thanks for flagging! Civic Projects just landed and are still in beta, so glitches might happen. I’ll look into it and get it fixed.

Absolutely, the model does the picking.

Chatgpt releasing a new version of ChatGPT Images (opens in a new window), powered by our new flagship image generation model. Now, whether you’re creating something from scratch or editing a photo, you’ll get the output you’re picturing. It makes precise edits while keeping details intact, and generates images up to 4x faster. Alongside, we’re introducing a new Images feature (opens in a new window) within ChatGPT, designed to make image generation delightful—to spark inspiration and make creative exploration effortless.

This seems totally unreasonable. How can they justify charging you based on usage when it's running on and using your resources?

ok, this tool really did some magic for my poor promt "create a game like google chrome has when wifi is off". i also like that it kinda teaches me on proper spec development and thinking for me about the tests and things i needed to specify in the first place.

nice


The way I do it is write tests, then commit just the tests. Then when you have any agent running and generating code, before committing/reviewing you can check the diff for any changes to files containing tests. The commit panel in Jetbrains for example will enumerate any changed files, and I can easily take a peek there and see if any testing files were changed in the process. It's not necessarily about having a separate codebase.

Excluding your kind is fully sufficient, racist.

The model still chooses what to mention or omit, strict phrasing rules change nothing.

sounds like that person isn't a tech lead

i wouldn't touch anything from Mozilla with a twenty-foot pole

Let's hope not another troubled and struggling math graduate:

Murder of Karel de Leeuw - Wikipedia

Murder of Karel de Leeuw Theodore Landon "Ted" Streleski (born 1936), an American former graduate student in mathematics at Stanford University, murdered his former faculty advisor, Professor Karel de Leeuw, with a ball-peen hammer on August 18, 1978.


The people who "innovate" and build it are working for Meta and the companies that shamelessly steal from individuals. Companies are made up of individuals who make these decisions.

I’m a 16-year-old solo founder building this because I kept shipping landing pages that “looked fine” but didn’t convert. I wanted a fast, opinionated CRO pass without hiring consultants. This is still early-stage, and I’m iterating based on real feedback.

One way to interpret this is not as the author's endorsement of the other report, but as a demonstration of how fragile these happiness rankings are to perturbations in methodology / definition.

This is the second time I'm finding out Joan's moved her RSS feed without announcing it...

Quick fix:

We'll figure out the FF script blocking.


If we become the same shithole as the US of A, we could produce very cheap cars. But for that goal, we have start or fuel some foreign wars, making the own population poorer and dumber every day. At least we have a residue of normality these days.

:-0 thanks for lmk, will get back to you on this asap
