My "Are you presuming most people are stupid?" test

news.ycombinator.com Andy Masley 2026-03-04 22:31:15

Sometimes when people talk about a problem in society, they strongly imply that most people are stupid. This is wrong. Most people aren’t super knowledgeable about a lot of specific facts about the world (only half of Americans can name the 3 branches of government) but they’re intelligent when it comes to their own lives and the areas they work and spend time in. We should expect the average person to struggle with factual questions about abstract ideas and far-off events, but not so much abou

Stephen Miller Owns Stock in Notorious ICE Collaborator Palantir

gizmodo.com Matt Novak 2026-03-04 21:00:35

Stephen Miller, a senior advisor to President Donald Trump, is well known as one of the most extreme anti-immigrant voices in the administration. But he’s not just a ghoul driven by far-right ideology to rid the U.S. of anyone who’s not white. Miller also appears to be making some money in the process, thanks to his stock ownership in a company that’s helping the U.S. government rip apart immigrant families through deportation. Miller owns anywhere from $100,000 to $250,000 in Palantir stock, a

Chrome on Android is finally making a long-awaited UI change over a year after iOS

TL;DR A browser with its address bar at the bottom of the screen is a desirable layout for mobile devices. Chrome on iOS got this option back in 2023, but has so far lacked it on Android. Today, Google finally starts giving Android users the choice, as well. Smartphones may be pocket-sized computers, but there are a million and one good reasons why we wouldn’t want to use the same exact apps we do on our full-sized machines.

Apple is known for rarely offering major discounts, especially on its latest products. Unlike many other brands that jump at every major sales event like Prime Day, Apple often stands on the sidelines, and lets its premium reputation and loyal customer base do the talking. Thus, whenever Apple items, and especially those released within the current year, are discounted, it is always a surprise (and a treat).
