I've been wanting to have a subvocal interface to a voice assistant ever since reading about Ender talking to the AI Jane as a kid. After Alexa came out, I encouraged my employer to develop the technology, but they didn't. I'm so happy to see people are working on this finally! Scott Card was a prophet.

It's clearly not untrackable. It's never been untrackable. That's how they know it went to Iran.

I'm still scrobbling after all these years.

According to the Github page, you can just run `rm ~/Library/Safari/Favicon Cache/*`

> My biggest problem with leetcode type questions is that you can't ask clarifying questions.

Huh? Of course you can. If you're practicing on leetcode, there's a discussion thread for every question where you can ask questions till the cows come home. If you're in a job interview, ask the interviewer. It's supposed to be a conversation.

> I wouldn't even mind the studying on leetcode types sites if they actually had decent explainers

If you don't find the hundreds of free explanations for each question to be good enough, you can pay for Leetcode Pro and get access to editorial answers which explain everything. Or use ChatGPT for free.

> It's not a matter of skill, it's just my ability to take in certain types of problems doesn't work well.

I don't mean to be rude, but it is 100% a matter of skill. That's good news! It means if you put in the effort, you'll learn and improve, just like I did and just like thousands and thousands of other humans have.

> Without any chance of additional info/questions it's literally a setup to fail.

Well with that attitude you're guaranteed to fail! Put in the work and don't give up, and you'll succeed.

"Follow-up question since you solved that so quickly: implement a constraint solver."

Apple will more likely pull out of Europe incrementally (and eventually completely) as the cost of doing business continues to skyrocket. Other American targets of EU regulators will do this as well. Apple isn't a charity, it's a company. If parts of its business are no longer profitable, those parts will cease to be.

> and is making me want to not hang out here anymore.

Agreed. No matter which side of the issue one is on, the fact you and everyone else who explains the incentive structure is getting downvoted to hell and receiving eloquent responses like "Bull fucking shit dude" is really pathetic.

Is HN really just another emotionalist monoculture echo chamber now? We're downvoting everything we disagree with whether it's true or not? Count me out.

How are they not complying with the regulation? This is what compliance looks like.

Anything under $100k for this is pathetic.

I don't know why you're being downvoted. The political climate, and more broadly the culture of a society, is the crucial component to whether or not technological progress happens. Evidence of this is all around us, even today. Look how much more progress there's been in South Korea vs. North Korea over the last 75 years. That is a direct consequence of the differing cultural and political climates.
