Capitalism right now and always has worked as designed a few winners a lot of people in "jobs" that are bordering on being a slave. Just that now they have technology colonialist like the Spanish or brit's or later us did not have. An error is also that colonialism has never stopped. Just because we don't have boats. You can now call it neo colonialism with trade deals from big power full states with big armies forcing smaller countries on there trade deals.
Britain as one of the most aggressive nations ever roaming this world actually fits since this is also where Manchester capitalism was born.
I am not sure if this is trolling? sarcasm? or just pure nativity ?

Because HN has become more and more liked reddit/twitter.

To me fighting games, racing games, sport games and a lot of other genres are superrrrrrr boring. Do i write it under every post? nope? do I farm for karma because I know shitting on NMS is what gets me karma? nope.

People just drop there opinion.

I'm checking out HN less and less.

This week i saw a post were US folks will not have access to drinkable water and the only discussion was about the title...

All flash llms have this problems. gemini. I start to a new chat write in german and suddenly it answers in english.

I take the free chat gpt one writ with it in polish suddenly english.

Crazy that the comments are about the title and the how the legal system should work or does not work but no one cares if the water they need to survive is drinkable or not.

I am out of words for this comment section.

funny how things come back.

I loved meteorjs and its still my fav framework to this day.

Seeing optimistic ui and browser based databases being used this way makes me happy.

I would like to understand how they do the chunking and only updating part of the graph instead all of it.

just last week we moved away from netlify to our own solution on AWS. Services like netlify who are a layer on top of AWS are no longer needed.

its easy: - Udssr did something wrong its very useful to this day for the us. - Fukushima was done by an "western orientated" country. - The fact that people say that chernobyl was worse then Fukushima is them not thinking. Fukushima was build in a area were this kind of accidents happen all the time. - If Fukushima happened in China you would have more netflix tv shows about it how bad it was handled. - Remember western media is going through an American lens. Just watch any main stream holy wood movie about war and think of it as US propaganda and you will see it everywhere

Sure I had an older dev do bit masking for a list of 3 options in javascript because he was used to old terminals.

Its something different coming in and changing things here and there but rewriting the hole thing on a weekend is something different.

Re:AI Is Killing B2B SaaS on Thursday February 05, 2026 @02:53AM (#46896919)
Oh I have seen this story and was the one who caused this story when I was younger.

In a lot of cases the "new guy" thinks its an easy software and does it on his free time and thinks he did a great job.

In reality the specs are never 100% done correctly. The "new guy" misses some edge cases everybody but him knew because its just company knowledge. A lot of info in the specs was missing since they are not complete and so on.

This over the weekend never works in the long run. The ORM worked for all the happy path and written down cases but then you have cases were the ORM just is not good enough or fast. So you start to add strange code to work around the ORM. The same for the web framework or the validation lib.

To me the author of this comment sounds like the typical "Freelancer" coming in into a company knowing everything better then all the people and then leaving after a few months and now everybody else has to deal with his code.

This does not look scalable.

Also debugging prod code will be a pain.

Cool tech demo but I would not use this for bigger projects

Re:GitHub staff are required to use Teams by Sep 1, 2023 on Monday February 13, 2023 @03:26PM (#34779857)
Yes I use it daily at work and its as bad as people are saying here.

Compared to any other Message software it is the worst.

I would rather use Discord then Teams.

All MSFT including Code would randomly crash because of the vpn...

Re:Microsoft Teams Premium: powered by OpenAI’s GPT-3.5 on Thursday February 02, 2023 @02:34AM (#34623381)
The premium version of Teams would be one with:

- Better UX. When working with Slack/Discord or any other of these apps. Going back to Teams is painful.

- That does not drain my Iphones battery as much as watching 4 hours on youtube.

This is how the new Pokemon games should have looked like :D

I really like the art style!

Can we add an "in the US" at the end?

Since for EU countries this is not true.

I'm living in sweden now and lived in germany and poland.

Plant-based meat products are growing in numbers and the price of meat is going so high that its cheaper to buy the plant-based one.

In Germany one producer of meat sausages want to turn 100% plant based[1].

I will not go into the whats better and not for you. Since this highly depends on not just one food category. You can eat "Vegan" and still eat unhealthy and you can eat meat and be healthy. The body is to complex on just saying is something is healthy or unhealthy on one factor.

Thanks for the link!

And yes I feel the same. For me its also easier to read it either on raw form or in VsCode.

I would like to see something that is as fast as the M1 (Right now I'm on an M1 Max).

I also hope that Frame.work will release some day a good laptop with an good ARM chip.

But I think this is like 3 years away.

Re:KDE beats macOS hands down on Wednesday November 16, 2022 @09:37AM (#33623658)
I try to not install specific version but always the latest.

Also to not install something that needs sudo.

On windows I used Scoop. I installed fonts through scoop and to update them I first needed to uninstall them and then install them again.

But sure in the end nothing is better then pacman with aur.

Re:KDE beats macOS hands down on Wednesday November 16, 2022 @08:46AM (#33622770)
I still have a razer blade for gaming but i mostly use my nintendo switch these days. Mostly playing "DorfRomantik" and "Mini Motorways"

As a side project I work on a flutter mobile app.

So one of the best features of MacOS is how easy you can simulate an Iphone compared to android. I wanted to setup a Pixel 6 with google play services and I for the love of god could not figure out how to do that. So I needed to go with the Pixel 4.

Re:KDE beats macOS hands down on Wednesday November 16, 2022 @08:41AM (#33622706)
Yes I looked at that but the software support is not there yet.

Also for the price the performance you get is questionable at best even compared to a m1.

I'm also a burned child by the build quality in the last years by lenovo. My t480s was at best good. But not as good as a macbook or a asus zenbook

Re:KDE beats macOS hands down on Wednesday November 16, 2022 @08:37AM (#33622661)
I still use Windows for gaming because you have to even the support under linux/macos got way better.

For development I tried WSL and WSL2 both have problems.

Last time I installed WSL2 with ubuntu on it I could not figure out how to connect ubuntu to the internet because of some strange DNS setup in WSL.

Windows Terminal is a good way forward but CMD is not as good as bash or zsh.

Scoop/WinGet/ect are nice but way way way behind brew or pacman.

I could install npm/node/git/etc directly on windows but its just so much more painful to setup and keep it running

Windows and its legacy/new/newNew/window11 ui is just to messy for me.

Re:KDE beats macOS hands down on Wednesday November 16, 2022 @05:30AM (#33621056)
To be honest I stopped caring what OS I'm running as long as it is not windows.

I have a terminal open 99% of the time and I almost never open finder or Gnome Files.

pacman or brew? really I don't care. Both install what I want with one command.

VS Code is basically the same on every system.

Gnome/KDE/MacOS all of them have there pros and cons.

Right now what wins for me is the apple silicon. I can develop stuff without a fan running for 8 hours.

Once Framework laptops come with a ARM Laptop were I can run gnome I can consider to switch again.
