Long COVID: a clinical update

Long COVID: a clinical update”…unlikely to recover.” Thank you. Comforting indeed. 🙂‍↕️How are medical professionals still gaslighting people about this? Pretending like it doesn’t exist and that people must just be lazy or faking it. It’s appalling. After a pandemic, society should have people’s backs. Not deliberately break their backs.Poverty and homelessness have been on the rise since 2020. I wonder if they’ll ever do a study to find out just how big the correlation is between long covid, p

How Post‑2020 Horror Reimagines Contagion and Isolation

How Post‑2020 Horror Reimagines Contagion and Isolation From the monster movies of the Depression to the gory slashers of the Vietnam era to the “torture porn” of the 2000s, the horror genre feeds our fears of the world around us — and often our lack of control over it. Even unconsciously, the underlying subtexts in horror movies strike closer to home and become more powerful at scaring us. Basic fears remain the same, but the specific elements of what we’re afraid of ebb and flow at different t

elaborating in relation to tags in lrb cos yea in america the uncaring attitude towards covid is very much felt due to american individualism but it was in fact the world health organization, an agency of the united nations, that was the people who said “oh dont worry! covid isnt a problem anymore! everyone go back to normal now!”

Tell HN: Stripe ToS update demands biometrics, freezes payments until given

I've been using Stripe for my business for about a decade. Got an email from them:> There’s an open task on your account that needs attention. To keep your account in good standing, take a moment to review it.Unsaid is that they froze payouts until accepting their new ToS, and that they require a Photo ID plus face scan in order to comply.I don't necessarily think requiring biometrics is a bad thing, but:- No advance notice was given.- A simple "[Action required] Review terms

Tell HN: Helium is the best browser I ever used

Helium (https://helium.computer/) is Chromium-based, with all the Google odiousness removed, emphasizing minimalism, privacy, zero telemetry, built-in uBlock Origin, and no sync or AI features.I am just a regular user that was looking for a Firefox alternative for a long time. I do not know why Helium does not get more attention. It's so fast all the time even with several hundred tabs, it never crashed, it is strongly privacy and safety protecting, I do not have one complain

Ask HN: How to get my contact info off US political party's list

I donated to one of the main political parties in the USA a few years back. I must have left my email and phone number, or they found it. Big mistake. Now I get hundreds of emails and texts from random political candidates, none of whom I have ever said I explicitly support, or really have any context about whatsoever. So it seems like the political party has my email and number in some central list, and they distribute it to all of their candidates to use. Is that correct? Is there anything I c

Show HN: On-device transcriber that's 97% accurate at identifying speakers

I’ve spent the last seven months building a tool I wish I’d had in my previous roles. MimicScribe is a macOS menu bar app that fits the "AI notetaker" category. It has accurate on-device speaker identification (a first possibly?), real-time meeting talking points for discovery calls, and a fully keyboard- and voice-driven interface.I believe the accuracy of the speaker ID system is its biggest strength. I used fluid audio’s port of (https://github.com/fluidInference&#x2F

Ask HN: Azure, GCP, AWS Free Tiers or Something Else

I was looking to spin up a small Ubuntu VM and tried to use Azure's free tier with free credit and found it painful to spin up what is a basic VM's due to contradictions in what MS said was available and what the menu selection process actually allowed me to select.How do others find Azure, is it the best environment with good value free tier or have you found the same as I have that it sounds good but reality is different. I'm using AWS now which was genuinely straightforward.I&#

Ask HN: Are we as society going to let LLM companies take all the values?

I am not that young, but I'm not that old. I used to be a child, and thought that the adults already figured things out and I can be at peace.One of my realization of me getting older is the realization that there are no adults in the room anymore, or that I am now, an adult, who, also the same like other adults, we actually don't know shit about anything, none of us do.I think LLM is a useful technology. But since the dawn of LLMs, I've been trying to imagine what the world will

Ask HN: Do you also feel like KYC is turning you off to the concept of money

I don't think we are there yet but if KYC gets even more stringent I anticipate that a hyper curated list or database of where to find the best deals across every domain of life would be worth more than say 100k USD.At least the hypercurated database would be yours and nobody can temper with it or subtract it from you , contrary to the 100k which can be gone in an instant if the bank decides that you are behaving according to abnomal patterns which could be as stupid as flying to Colombia f

Show HN: Storytime – Continuity for Claude Code (and other ideas)

Since LLM harness (claude code included) are moving fast, I figured it would be better to put this out than wait to validate each and every claim. I crammed a lot of ideas in here!Theres a few core ideas outlined on the html, but the incepting one was domain lenses as personas within a thread. The main path /storytime cmd kicks off the process and yields a full set incremental documents, and thats been very useful for me as well.Other ideas like breakouts, @roles, and others have been subsu
