If less people need to work while there is enough money to go around. What makes them freeloaders? Do you think children are freeloaders? What about retirees or veterans or disabled people?

Also known as people and leisure. Why is that so bad? Sounds pretty great to me.

Can’t wait to retire and do all the things I enjoy doing.

Maybe the companies firing people or shutting down operations somewhere aren’t properly motivated to successfully retrain the people they are replacing? Lets lock up the CEO without food until they come up with an acceptable solution. I hear hunger is a powerful motivator.

Yes this is a good idea. Taxing AI might also slightly slowdown the speed of this happening because it dampens the economic incentive a bit.

If I was a American oligarch who became president due to my ties to social media platforms and influence I would also advocate european governments use American AI services.

Why shouldn’t a company be responsible for the pollution and health impacts their products have?

It’s so basic

> In particular, the bill bans design features such as infinite scrolling, artificial notifications and certain reward mechanisms.

Honestly I think it's good that there are more guide rails and safeguards implemented for kids.

As with any rules and regulations there will be loop holes and big corporations will still try to get away with as much as they can. But blocking the most harmful mechanisms and content while still keeping access open seems very reasonable.

> tech companies would be required to make their digital services safe by design

Sometimes I think even adults would benefit from rules blocking addictive features and mechanisms.

The whole point is the speed

competitief salaris? Is dat competitief met andere bedrijven op HN? Zet er anders even een echt bedrag bij.

Can they become part of the eurozone without joining the european union?

60B in all stock. So basically “free” assuming cursor leadership believes Elons feverdreams.

I wonder how long until Elon makes everyone believe he founded Cursor.

Revolut does not have a banking license in the US. At the moment they are a front for another bank. Don't be gullible and believe blindly what the marketing departments tell you.

I sometimes wonder what would happen to our other resources if energy was abundant and "free". For example desalination plants running for free could perhaps be used to refill an aquifer.

Of course there are markets and balances in the real world. The idea that energy is always scarce and that we shouldn't produce more than I as an individual need always feels a bit like maintaining scarcity.

often energy storage has a lot of losses in the the conversion. but if you produce 10x of what you need for "free". Would that really matter? I'm sure we will get there at some point.

At the point where you have 1 million in revenue you for sure have an accountant even just to do your yearly business taxes. So reporting to Epic just becomes an extra hour of work to make the report.

The correct way to deliver notifications is through push notifications. On mobile platforms it will wake up the device, wake up the app and handle the notification. No matter if your app is backgrounded, completely quit or open. It's actually really cool and efficient.

It's the low quality code from whatsapp and meta that's causing the battery usage doing all sorts of bad patterns like like constant outbound requests. So many apps like telegram don't have the same issues and are also just as responsive.

As long as the water that goes in, doesn’t come out. The inital water requirement is fine. What is problematic in most cases is the warm water containing pollutants is just pumped straight into our local waste water systems or rivers.

Wondering what happened in April, around that time layoffs started including at my job. No reason at all aside from “AI” and the C suite wanting larger profits.

> The strange thing is this is happening in multiple companies at the same time. It's like all the CEOs and HR reps met at some golf retreat and decided to follow a script.

I’ve gotten the same feeling. It’s too consistent to be a fluke. I get the feeling its a fashion thats being pushed by VC funds who are all neck deep in nvidia, openai and anthropic stocks. They must have realized they can pump this to their portfolio to inflate all the investments.

Is making the word unstable, it's actively happening. USA has the biggest and strongest propaganda machine.

Honestly with Apples high bar of engineers and their massive budgets. If they wanted to they would. So to me it's a good decision from the EU commission to not give into the bullying from Apple. (and others)

Clearly the USA has the same vested interest. The difference is they are aggressively initiating war outside their borders to bully and get what they want.

In the US can you use stripe with only online bank transfers just like in the EU?

how about jailing CEO's of companies who do this?

Correction designers and frameworks don’t build websites the engineers do

I love this in xcode / swift. Where classes and structs have a different colors between local classes and external classes (from a lib).

Its surprisingly useful to know if you’re working with a entity that you made.

Only after informing you, giving you the opportunity to fix things and many many other steps. The harshness is directly related to the size of the company and the companies willingness to fix any issues. They want companies to comply.

For the same reason css still works if you make a typo and javascript super dynamic: its a friendly interface.

Html, css and js got used so much because you could mess around and still get something to work. While other languages that people use to write “serious” applications just screamed at you for not being smart enough to know how to allocate memory correctly.

Html and css is not a competitor to C. Its more like an alternative to file formats like txt or rtf. Meant to be written by hand in a text editor to get styled pages. So easy and forgiving your mom could do it! (And did, just like everyone else in the myspace days)

Reminder that this would be illegal in any modern developed country.

Are the big capitalist car companies scared of some strong competition? Maybe they should innovate instead of lobby against international competition

Sam is doing the same playbook Elon used Tesla's full self-driving dreams
