maybe to avoid getting their legitimate email servers banned by other servers since they host (i.e. being exploited) a growing number of spam accounts.

For most online businesses, blocking Apple email servers sounds like a good way to kill off the portion of your customer base that has the most money to spend.

You cant send mail from Hide My Email aliases. They are only work one way.

You can send from Hide My Email addresses:

I think I've also seen this in Mail.app but that's not shown on this page.


Wow my bad I wasnt aware its possible. I remember someone in HN comments complaining about it being one way only back in 2024.

UPD: apperently this supposedly only work if someone message you first. So you still cant spam from aliases.


Ok thanks. Directions are misleading then.

US will ban American companies from using Chinese models and also ban them from dealing with companies who use Chinese models. “Code produced by Chinese models may be deliberately introduce backdoors and vulnerabilities” that kind of thing.

So, browser = Java Runtime; uber HTML = applet?

If there are no young people to produce resources and care, your money is just numbers.


The fact that birth rate is so low in countries with good social security safe net suggests that the society isn't paying enough.


Not necessarily. It's possible that no amount of money would solve this problem. Birth control inherently broke the previously built evolutionary mechanism that insured that the extremely strong built in desire for sex would result in kids. That's no longer the case, and a lot of people would decide to not have kids even if money were no object.

As you point out, Finland famously has incredible family support, and also a birth rate under 1.3.

One possibility is that wealthy people with few (often just 1) child, a stable home life, fewer financial pressures, etc spend a lot more time on the child. And this keeps them out of trouble more often.

Also, a lot of the education around avoiding pregnancy is about the financial future of the child (eg getting present in high school will ruin your life). For that to have an impact, the child has to think they have some kind of future.


'having a child removes your future opportunity so don't have a child until you are ready' resonates more with people with future opportunity.


Afaik according to research, the only thing that helps is

1. Lump sum, pretty big (like year worth of salary or close) payment on birth

2. Works for first child only.

That's it. So, it kinda works, but very limited. Increasing sum did not increase birthrates, if I remember correctly.


This sounds extremely plausible to me, but I would be very careful about conclusions from such studies, because I believe the general expectations of society as a whole regarding child-raising matter a lot and you can't easily quantify that.

Anecdotally, when my grandmother did not birth a child for two consecutive years in her thirties the village priest came to investigate (!!). Expectations have shifted massively since, and the single/dink lifestyle is way more "acceptable" now.


And often the payment merely changes the timing of the child


They will eventually converge --- it's only a matter of time.


Obviously going to depend on your definition of "decent". My impression so far is that you will need between 90GB to 100GB of memory to run medium sized (31B dense or ~110B MoE) models with some quantization enabled.


I’m running Gemma4 31B (Q8) on my 2 4090s (48GB) with no problem.


I have the same setup but tried paperclip ai with it and it seems to me that either i'm unable to setup it properly or multiply agents struggle with this setup. Especially as it seems that paperclip ai and opencode (used for connection) is blowing up the context to 20-30k

Any tips around your setup running this?

I use lmstudio with default settings and prioritization instead of split.


I asked AI for help setting it up. I use 128k context for 31B and 256k context for 26B4A. Ollama worked out of the box for me but I wanted more control with llama.cpp.

My command for llama-server:

llama-server -m /models/gemma-4-26B-A4B-it-UD-Q8_K_XL.gguf -ngl 99 -sm layer -ts 10,12 --jinja --flash-attn on --cont-batching -np 1 -c 262144 -b 4096 -ub 512 -ctk q8_0 -ctv q8_0 --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8080 --timeout 18000


You sweat because you are working with the CLI. Git is intrinsically "graphical". Use a good GUI client or higher level interface (maybe jj) to manipulate git graphs --- stop worrying about "how" (i.e. wrangling with CLI to achieve what you want) and focus more on "what".


Nowadays I just ask my LLM butler to "organize outstanding changes into coherent commits". No new software needed.


'Stacked PRs' are back on the menu with Claude, because changing something in PR1 isn't a massive time sync to get PR2-5 back in shape, as Claude can usually handle all of that for me.


I think skills are just a marketing ploy. There is nothing preventing a MCP from serving skills.
