I was in the same boat. I was also one of the weird folks that like the touch bar. I've had my M5 Pro MBP for just over a week now. It's insane how much better it is than the i9 I had. I have a Rust/SwiftUI project that I swear was taking 2 minutes to do a clean build on that Intel machine, that takes about 3 seconds on this new one. I've used it for over 14 hours of heavy development work and have charged it ONCE. Yes, my wallet wasn't happy, but I am, like actually giggling happy. I don't want to make you feel like you should upgrade, but come on in, the water's fine. :D

They will in the future, but not today.


The Anatoly Kolodkin did exactly that. Russian oil. Russian ship. Russian flag.

The compiler does comply to the spec. It's the program that fails to comply with the spec. It's definitely possible to write programs that have no undefined behavior.

Wouldn't that same logic exclude evidence from Google searches, like "how to get away with murder"?

RE .... company tracks you ..... [ somewhat off topis ]

Did you know ... in many countries government tracks car number plates and the data is stored for many years.


I just checked out Chapel because of this comment and it is literally the coolest thing I've seen this whole entire year.

I am looking at your link and thinking I took crazy pills.

The graph shows just under 23% in 1989, going up past 27% by 1996, then dipping a few years later only to go up to 29% a bit before 2008, then another dip and rise to almost 32% today.

Am I misreading the graph? If not, the percentage of wealth owned by the 1% is on track to have increased 50% over ~40 years. (23% --> 34.5%)



The problem with free is that people get entitled. You can see some examples in this thread.

"Everybody likes free. But free can be dangerous, too. Today's show is about what happens when you take something that was free and you give it a price. That is a highly risky move. And the damage can be enormous."

[meta] this response was clearly not from an LLM. i wonder what sorts of distinctive styles could be telltales going forward.

> I am glad that we are finally moving towards a world where we can utilize code as a tool rather than constantly trying to think how to make it into a product.

Maybe that's just you. Code as a tool rather than just a product has always existed.


No, a Russian flagged tanker can sail and land in Cuba. The Russian oil tanker Anatolky Kolodkin did, in fact, dock in Cuba and offload oil in March 2026.

You have to be admitted to the bar to practice law. Which is to say, other lawyers must recognize you as a lawyer, and this recognition can be taken away.

I'm not going to blame a fellow pedant for being pedantic :)

You could probably amend this to "billionaires", instead of the qualifying "multi billionaires".


Do you have a robots.txt?

I keep seeing IPv8 (IPv4 V2) being suggested on HN. I do not see this happening in my lifetime. IPv6 while not perfect has taken 14+ years to reach almost 50% adoption most of which is from wireless and VPS providers and that has started to plateau. IPv8 if approved would have to work it's way through the myriad of hardware obstacles, middle boxes, routers, operating systems and so much more that IPv6 had to complete. There are still a massive number of ISP's that need to implement IPv6 just to get people out of the CG-NAT mess. That and/or reclaim all the squatted, wasted and unused IPv4 space which is another topic in and of itself.

Came across this recently too, seems to be from "Amazon Quick" where crawling other's websites is basically a feature of the product: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/quick/latest/userguide/web-crawl...

> Crawling behavior [...] Crawler identification: Identifies itself with user-agent string "aws-quick-on-behalf-of-<UUID>" in request headers.

Maybe people found a way of using it as a loophole for something or Amazon Quick is just picking up in usage, and your website is popular amongst whoever uses that sort of stuff.


Heh, this is like the time when I copied a bullies coursework to the public folder as the schoolzone's newspaper user account, made alterations in my own schools username and copied it back as the schoolzone's user account. Such a rookie mistake.

This is great! I feel the same way about the deepseek v4 architecture for commodity hardware.

Also have enjoyed playing with https://huggingface.co/HuggingFaceTB/nanowhale-100m-base (but early days for me understanding this space)


You're right. For the people settling this country, they were traveling west from Europe across the Atlantic, so the country is coded as to how far West you have to travel. Quebec would be "Middle Canada". Ontario should be Western Canada; Manitoba should be Westerner Canada; Saskatchewan should be West Westerner Canada; Alberta should be called Westerer Westerner Canada, and British Columbia should be Better-Come-From-The-Other-Side Canada.

From the link you posted:

>Provincial governments make no contributions to the Equalization program.

And:

>All Canadians are subject to the same federal income tax system and its progressive rate structure, regardless of where they live.


> it’s not even clear if it can saturate a gigabit

If that's the case then it's not the CPU's fault. I can't open the linked site but assuming it's really the same as a BPI-F3 i.e. a SpacemiT K1 chip, that can do 2.8 GB/sec on large RAM to RAM memcpy using a CPU core i.e. 44 Gbps total, 22 Gbps each read and write. Plus I assume it's got DMA so no need to involve the CPU anyway.

Here is a test I ran in April 2025 on a Sipeed LicheePi 3A same chip).

https://hoult.org/K1_memcpy.txt

> RISC-V is quite wimpy this far

The new K3 chip from the same manufacturer does 8.7 GB/s RAM to RAM memcpy using a dual issue in-order A100 ("AI") core, just over 3x faster.

Sure this pales in comparison to recent Apple / Intel / AMD but it's a lot faster than home networking.


Amazon Quick is the new name of Quicksight, which is the BI tool from AWS.

It has AI agents included so I guess this can just come from it searching the web based on user requests.


Yeah, perhaps equity would have been a better word choice. Not a finance guy me.

No. If you talk to an attorney and they take reasonable precautions to maintain the integrity of the confidential attorney client relationship, the privilege is preserved. If not, not preserved.

> if I do it to help me prepare my defense, then the exact same queries would be subject to subpoena/discovery

We need a law where someone can clearly designate a chat privileged, with severe consequences for mis-use.


The meaningful thing is to understand the difference between a blockade and an embargo.

When people say that the US is blockading Cuba I'm not sure if they are genuinely misinformed and think that the US Navy and Coast Guard are physically apprehending any ships trying to dock in Cuba, or if they are just ignorant.


yup that one

Thanks! Happy that you've noticed :)
