> They want higher salaries, damned' be what it does to competitiveness.
You're advocating against people seeking higher salaries because that hurts competitiveness? That is competitive behavior in a nutshell.
Why are you so hostile to populist policies in America?
> fight back against my government, please
I don't understand what you mean by this? Fight back against what? Protective tariffs?
Is YC News an American website? It seems like all the comments are advising against American interests with regards to tariffs.
If he's making over $1 million annual, Apple’s App Store commission is 30%, but the App Store Small Business Program sets the commission to 15%.
Thirty years old. Hard to believe
I don't know why people hold on to all this extra software and features when with the tools its easier than ever to strip that out and refactor the end product in to a much more compact deliverable. Maybe once upon a time it was useful to keep legacy parts of the software solution around, but it can be recreated with fresh eyes if needed given the power of the new LLM models. My philosophy is if its not needed, it needs to be removed.
It is so much easier to add internationalization to a touchscreen over physical buttons
I just do iOS development and my opinion is this: Start with XCode then use an LLM to design and develop it out from there its great. The newer models work great with project files where they used to struggle. Using the Visual Code development tools alongside XCode, claude skills and 3rd party libraries and frameworks with SwiftUI and Swift 5/6 is really convincing me I should make apps full time again. Coding apps has become my dream job.

That's a lot of money just for network topography, but may someone let them in and it has a whole map of an otherwise hidden or inaccessible network.
Do you have a link to the note app? Just curious what could make it unique, not criticizing anyone.
But who will buy it? No knocks against building old projects, but the market will be flooded with extremely speciality projects. I miss when every app had a spec on the box. I think we need something like that for usage. A new modeling language or something.
Feels like from the before times.
Thanks for showing this. What would you say the differences between the classic version of oleo and your neoleo version?
I'm guessing willingly Maduro surrendered as he took the cash offer from Dec 1, 2025 while publicly rejecting it. After all, he left with his wife.
> “You can save yourself and those closest to you, but you must leave the country now,” Trump reportedly said, offering safe passage for Maduro, his wife and his son “only if he agreed to resign right away”.

It was Firebird. Thanks for correcting me.
Maybe it hit trademark issues, but the reason I remember from slashdot was that phoenix was already a semi-popular open source project in the debian repository, so firefox had to be named from phoenix to mozilla-phoenix. But firefox at the time still named phoenix just ran so much better on windows than linux, it was funny.
Are those still being used? I haven't used Konqueror in awhile.
I have Objective-C software for iOS that was built for iOS 3 that still runs on the latest version of iOS and people still pay for it. Strange how language stability is an achievable goal.
How would you compare this to say, writing WinForm applications in Visual Basic 6?
Its seems like a combination of 90's seo spam pages combined with running unsigned/unchecked executables. I think we're going to have certifications and positions for AI Tools Security Officers in the near future if we don't already.
I have a hard time believing that, but if that website says so, it must be true. I would wonder if they are including gmail users as well as all android users, but I don't know their methodology. If they include all android users, they should include all ios users for Apple Music and iTunes since Apple stores their music on Microsoft Azure, which last I checked is the same thing OneDrive uses.
People don't like advertising. Google is an advertising company. The more these AI models get corrupted with advertising the more likely they are to take a lead. That the reason they don't dominate in cloud storage. Where's the competitive advantage in embedding advertising in people's personal and publicly shared documents?
That's the wildest reason I've ever heard of developing an emulated operating system. It ranks up there with funding billions for intercontinental ballistic technology so you could put a pair of men on the moon to drive around in a dune buggy and plant your national flag.

from the ask-hn dept.
I'm looking to use an email client and I'm not looking for a clean simple interface. What are your recommendations? Answers with AI as a enhancement plugin for the application would be interesting too. Are there any good UI's for terminal applications if there aren't any good full graphical applications?
I use brave search and usually end up clicking on the google button midway down on the page. Every search engine is inferior and if google wasn't the default search on iOS it would hurt the brand, especially since google is the default search on android. I'm a little older and using bing just feels like altavista in the 90's. Its good enough, but it feels like its selling me something I don't want. Just give me a good search result or I'll have to stop using the phone's web browser to look things up (or manually change the browser search engine with every release).
I think it is undergoing a resurgence due to the LLM prolifereating, but I haven't seen how Prolog is being used in the LLM creation. Of course, I don't really understand the whole process of the creation. I do remember someone on a academic/programmer forum stating Prolog regarding research was big in academics in Europe whereas Lisp was more popular in America academics for research. It would make sense as Richard Stallman was big into AI Lisp as a consultant.
