These tools are already written in rust.

explain your use case, I always wonder what kind of scenarios people do have, it is something easily solved? it is complicated? what is stopping you?

Mixing with existing code gradually migrating to and from angular

the thing I really miss when I use magic, is recommended places from Google maps, where to watch certain movie/series, a lot of things like that, where you can infer recommendations based on your location. Kagi might be good to filter everything scored "bad", but makes you work more.

We have a big overhaul of Kagi Maps coming, stay tuned :)

How do you feel your data for Kagi Maps compares to Google Maps? It's the kind of thing that's harder to test than switching web searches over to Kagi. I need to already know that the business and transit data is reliable which is why I still go to Google Maps.

Local queries are the I've things I use Google for still -- but Kagi makes it easy, you just start your query with !g and it redirects you. So it's pretty safe to switch the default.

I’m looking forward to it. I never stopped using Google Maps because no alternative was as ubiquitously useful (OSM is better in certain areas, but it’s hard to say when, which eventually resulted in me switching back to GM full time).

Kagi is awesome! Good luck w the updates

Looking forward to this.

The thing I dislike about OpenCode is the lack of capabilities of their editor, also, resource intensive, for some reason on a VM it chuckles each 30 mins, that I need to discard all sessions, commits, etc.

I don't know if it is bun related, but in task manager, is the thing that is almost at the top always on CPU usage, turns out for me, bun is not production ready at all.

Wish Zed editor had something like BigPickle which is free to use without limits.

What issue did you run into?

Can we stop all these vibe-coded projects landing on the front page? It is annoying. Just feels like reddit.

Completely agree, HN is mostly anti .NET/C#. It rarely gains attraction, and when it does, people bashes it with unfounded or very outdated info from another era.

I’m wondering why these companies are so hyped and valued at these astronomical levels. Honestly, nothing really impresses me enough to think, “Wow, this company actually deserves that kind of valuation”.

These valuations are to the point point that this looks too close to money laundering, just like buying art.

Because our markets are no longer efficient at allocating capital. These companies are too large, they don't compete. They can buy a company for half a billion and write it off a few months later, at the whim of someone deranged by hype. How many businesses in competitive markets can afford to do that?

And the reason is all of you dumping cash into the market no matter what because John Bogle said so half a century ago.

I disagree - yes, some companies are overvalued, but it isn't because of index investors.

> this looks too close to money laundering, just like buying art

Yep. Concur with this conclusion. It is getting really ridiculous now. No way most of these companies are at the valuation they are in.

Or the investors are just plain stupid.

I hear you, and mostly share the point of view, but that’s what people were saying about the instagram valuation too.

Survivorship bias, I think. Our go to is the big, high profile success. But look at the amount of money Zuck has wasted on the Metaverse. He’s most definitely fallible.

What's the dollar-per-user figure between these two examples?

Instagram only had approx 10mn users when acquired. That was a long time ago though, and Facebook was at a very different stage in its lifecycle.

Because we are at a historic moment where governments are propping up fiat money using whatever they could.

All these crazy valuations is just a manifestation.

> I’m wondering why these companies are so hyped and valued at these astronomical levels.

That’s all VCs do! They hype it to recover their money and some more :-)

It's all very speculative and line keeps going up forever

The crypto bros switched over to AI.

MassTransit has gone commercial too, not that I care but somehow ppl rely on these libraries.

> How?

People say Bitcoin is worth $100k but what they actually mean is it's worth 100,000 "USDT", because that's the thing you can actually exchange for it.

Are those 100,000 "USDT" worth $100k? Well, maybe. Tether claims every USDT is backed by a US dollar. It just can't tell you where they are or let you audit them. But they're there. Honest.

> And why isn't that being shorted?

How would you short it? Especially given that most crypto trading platforms are going to go bankrupt when it does crash.

Tether is bad but these aren't correct arguments against it. 1. You can easily sell BTC for 100K actual USD and ACH it out on a regulated exchange like Gemini. 2. You can easily sell USDT for actual USD on (IIRC) Kraken. 3. Technically you can short USDT via various means but you won't be able to collect any profits.

> 1. You can easily sell BTC for 100K actual USD and ACH it out on a regulated exchange like Gemini. 2. You can easily sell USDT for actual USD on (IIRC) Kraken.

You can until you can't. As long as people think 1 "USDT" is worth $1, and as long as the amounts you're selling aren't too big, it stays afloat.

> 3. Technically you can short USDT via various means but you won't be able to collect any profits.

How? If my thesis is that USDT is going to collapse and bring down the whole cryptocurrency ecosystem, what can I buy to express that and profit on it?

I'm going to be deliberately vague because I really really discourage shorting Tether but you can investigate perpetual swaps and defi lending.

But those are things that only exist in the crypto ecosystem. The counterparty risk is all wrong-way. Like yes, I can sign a contract with Coinbase that says they will owe me a lot of money when Tether collapses. But when Tether collapses it's probably going to take Coinbase down with it.

That's what I'm saying. You can't collect the profits.

If I sell a bitcoin on Coinbase, Kraken, or any of the other highly regulated exchanges, I am sure as shit getting USD and not USDT, which does not exist on the bitcoin chain.

Could you please elaborate on the "actually mean" part? Why do you think it is tied to usdt? Maybe a source link? Thank you!

Tether appears to be too big to fail in the crypto world and now crypto is too big to fail in the White House so if you short you are the one who will lose.

On the contrary. Your way better hedge was polymarket not hitting 100k prior to the election.

Tether admitted they loaned USDT against BTC collateral and they allowed the collateral to be delivered later (basically T+2 settlement). When the order book is shallow this is basically free market manipulation. It's not clear how much loaned USDT exists vs. regular USDT and what effect this has had on the price.

Not in the crypto world. Failure to deliver is rare in the exchange world but someone out there would run the long con against Tether for that.

Bias much?

Wonder if the study is freely available without paywall.

Sci-hub.pub

Is this still working? Am I being blocked at the ISP level?

For me sci-hub.pub opens a simple page listing other sci-hub URLs, but each and every one of them fails, ending in "Unable to connect" as if the server did not exist. (Tested: sci-hub.ee, sci-hub.ren, sci-hub.ru, sci-hub.se, sci-hub.st, sci-hub.wf).

Is sci-hub still working for people, I haven't been able to use it for a while.

edit: Wow, it works if I go there via VPN… incredible. So sci-hub is illegal in France?
