strong "You can build dropbox quite trivially by getting an FTP account, mounting it locally with curlftpfs, and then using SVN or CVS on the mounted filesystem" vibes

You have built something like jev but not jev (for starters, the output of what you've built will be absolutely worthless, the whole reason Jev is getting so much hype is because the output is good enough)


You beat me to it!

It's just the best general purpose compression algorithm, in terms of compression ratio to CPU used, for the vast majority of use cases

I'm not that fussed about CPU use.

https://github.com/mcmilk/7-Zip-zstd

By these charts, if I only need 5-10 megabytes per second of compression on a single core, LZMA2 wins significantly on ratio, and still decompresses at well over 100. If I'm doing a backup, or sending/receiving over my internet connection (which only has 2MB/s of upload), LZMA2 easily wins. If I need speed then zstd wins.


Do you have any connection to Portugal? I imagine if you have Portuguese in any of your prompts that might bleed into your user profile which becomes a part of every prompt. Alternatively it might use browser language settings

poor implementation

jev should only have the choice of space_0 or space_1, then recurse on n-1

this extends the implementation to infinite padding and is cleaner code


Maybe for Enterprise scale, for ramen scale hackers if you need 15 spaces you just add 5 to start with then use space_10. Clean and, importantly, dry.

Did it? Outside of very limited testing zones, self driving _still_ doesn't really exist


> Just because. There's no tech reason to do it.

They made a separate article on why, which they linked to. Performance is significantly better. The native Android app launches twice as fast for example


and only 23% on iOS. Now while those can initially seems significant, it's still a web app, doh, a web page, that loads non deterministic stuff. Even in their tests, the page that loads native vs RN is simply... different. Different things take different time to load, yeah, who would have though. Not even mentioning that this "performance" is only app startup, lol. Ah, sorry, my bad, 120fps when browsing items on the web.

Don't get me wrong I don't have anything against AI, I'm a heavy user myself, but refactoring everything just for the sake of it and bragging on HN with little to no tangible effects - that's a whole different story.


"native" shouldn't be capitalized in the title


They paid an estimated $300M per aircraft, so even a $139M repair bill is worth it


Monzo are a UK bank that briefly but afaik no longer operate in the US


They are partially Chinese owned, so you can imagine Trump having a fit could be ordering AWS and GCP to stop servicing this bank.


Also this line is very weird:

> That’s enough to mean the 11 Pro Fold still feels like a smart purchase right now, but I’m worried it won’t do for long.

How long are these phone's purchasable windows? like 12 months max?

So it's still a "smart purchase" now, despite being out of date? So maybe it's not out of date yet? But will be soon, like literally every other phone?
