Asle Toje was appointed by FRP and is very much a political appointed member. While there is not really any indication of meddling by political parties with the committee the appointment is very much politically governed.

It is not really. They claim so but the members are appointed by the Norwegian government. One of the members, Asle Toje, is very much a political appointed member by the right-wing FRP party.

This process is decided by the Alfred Nobel will.

Hi HN, founder here!

MakePlans is a SaaS for online scheduling. After 15 years of having an API we now also added an MCP server. So you can add it to your favourite AI assistant and ask things like "Book Anna in for a massage on Friday at 14:00". Hope to have all API endpoints available in the MCP server soon.

Let me know if you have any questions about how we implemented this in a Rails app.

I flew 747 last month with Lufthansa and asked one of the crew how long they will keep it in operation. «I retire in two years so I don’t care» a very German response but at least they hadn’t made any announcement that he seem to be aware of.

Always fun to be on the second floor despite the seat configuration being a bit dated.

Claiming DHH is a fascist is such a dumb take. The article is vile; claiming DHH died. "'DHH has brain worms' is a fact and valid" - grow up.

> DHH's views would be considered centrist at most

That's not very accurate.

No it's not. Actively managed funds will in most cases not beat an index fund. Investorers have learned this and has chosen passive funds. This together with more people investing in funds has increased the size of passive ETFs in the market.

Their EU region was down for 8 hours last November and it took 2 hours before they were aware of it so submitting a ticket is definitively worth while. I'm suspecting their monitoring is not good enough.

If Trump steps back from the GDPR US-EU data transfer agreement then your political stance is irrelevant.
