I'm so glad that the LLM hysteria at $WORK is barely scratching the surface. These Twitter-brained CEOs are living in a completely different reality, so I am really happy I don't have to experience it firsthand.

IDEs made by JetBrains are huge. At this point, they're basically the standard option for several JVM languages.

You can't expect the average person on HN to admit to using a JVM-based language. That would mean they write boring business software rather than cool ad surveillance tech.

I'm always taken aback a little when I read through HN and see how little mind share Kotlin and its ecosystem has here. JetBrains has done a pretty good job of creating something that can fill many different niches (especially considering they're not one of the giant tech companies with virtually unlimited budgets), but it seems people don't even realize it exists, for whatever reason. It doesn't even need to run on a JVM in many cases, if that's some sort of barrier.

> Same with PCs... do you really want to run that *.exe you downloaded from that cool site you found?

Yes, I am fully capable of making decisions about what software to run on my personal hardware on my own, thanks. I don't need Apple or Google or Microsoft to make this decision for me.

They're trying to fix social engineering. It's simply not possible.

You don't need to belittle someone else's work. It's a series of articles, and author has 2 more articles that aren't related to articles Ciechanowski wrote at all.

It's not? The only 2 options available there are last gen Strix Point (AI 300 series).

This doesn't sound quite right, I think they put a wrong price there.

Bottom cover alone goes for more than that, even without battery or speakers: https://frame.work/sg/en/products/laptop13pro-bottom-cover-k...

So does the screen: https://frame.work/sg/en/products/laptop13pro-display-kit

Agreed - $255 sounded too good to be true. Fingers crossed it doesn't end up too crazy, because that chassis looks good!

I was also surprised by this sentence. It sounds like this is the author's first attempt at running models locally.

Or maybe the author has been running heavily quantized small models all that time — Gemma 4 gguf he's using is Q4 and only 16 GB. In my experience quants like this tend to perform much worse.

You made a few typos in "LaLiga"

I am so glad DuckDuckGo allows blocking specific sites from the search. Just did this for a domain linked in this repository.

It would be nice if DDG made even a token attempt at making their search not shit. I still use it, but mostly out of habit and because I suspect every alternative is also shit.

So now you don't get any hits from "Hacker News" ? :-)

Well, lossless over Bluetooth is a mess currently.

Only 1 codec is capable of that — aptX Lossless. Then, your transmitting device, phone / laptop / etc., needs to be compatible with it, and that's often not the case. Samsung and Apple don't support it.

I bought USB-C Bluetooth dongle that I use with my iPhone for that exact reason. It looks janky, but I think it's worth it.
