It's $370 in 2006 dollars.

Are you comparing 11 days of utility vs 5+ years worth?

Very obvious next step is to release 15" or 16" variant. It would put nail in coffin on cheap PC market. But would also cannibalize their own air/pro sales.

Maybe they can finally crack down on communist symbols. IDK how they haven't been investigated in most of Europe yet.

I find it's worse here now than X. Literally every discussion turns into meta and severely politicized. Certain topics you get flagged out by a mob for stating facts.

At least on X reply bots are not allowed anymore. Blue checks are useless tho.

> I find it's worse here now than X.

I disagree, but in any case the easy solution in that case is to use X instead of HN.

> At least on X reply bots are not allowed anymore.

In theory, maybe.

HN has mostly turned into a reddit bis since 2023, with tons of topics that have absolutely nothing to do with startup, tech or programming but are directly taken from of r/news ... I'll take bots spamming fake projects over petty divise partisan politics.

Yep - and if you have an opinion on one particular side that isn’t favored here, it gets flagged.

I don't necessarily disagree, but what's interesting is that Julie Brown and the Miami Herald are printing it now.

The cash transactions are also not hearsay.

That's why Salesforce is so well positioned here. Entire data, client interactions (crm) and admin team (slack) is already mostly there.

For developer like me - Slack bot already proven useful digging out info. Slack also supports kanban so probably can replace jira/asana/etc for documenting system. In Salesforce "vibes" already can tell a lot of stuff about your Salesforce implementation. Connect it all up and you got pretty useful package. Sadly Salesforce is moving too slow here.

For group chats chatgpt has that, but not the same. I think the closest is Airtable where you can collab on data.

Speaking for Lithuania - we have something like 6 or 7 digital ID forms and until like last year or so - they all sucked, i.e.:

* Using your bank to login - well if you left country you generally close your bank.

* SIM card auth (similar to SMS, you get a code on your phone) - most popular, except same as above + doesn't work with eSIM.

* Chip card - requires reader, unclear software and certificates on card expire after 2 years which makes it useless if you moved abroad.

* Smart Id - scans your passport, does face scan and stays on your phone - pretty convenient, but turns out there are multiple levels of auth and this particular one isn't that useful...

* Contactless - the holy grail that's only been implemented recently - scan your id card/ passport using phone. I've only used it once, did require some esoteric software, but seems like a step in the right direction.

Bonus: e-gov forms actually predate mobile era. They have been built so long that you can forget trying to fill them on your phone. And if you do get to fill them, you'll most likely receive email that you need to come into the office for 'verification' which pretty much defeats entire system.

$2.54 per person. They earn something like $300 per month.

Are you actually asking why management makes more money than workers?
