Lockheed Martin must be really annoyed at the current administration. Who's going to want to put in new F35 orders now
Apparently India put in few to escape Tariffs

Why does a single commodity product company have a stock when that says said commodity is not even the top spot in the category?
Per-country caps remains an absolutely good idea. The goal of immigrants should be to integrate into the society they are joining. Without per country caps you can start creating strange enclaves and you get some of the issues Canada is having.
India has roughly twice the population of Europe and is just as diverse. Treating India as a single, homogeneous entity because it's one country overlooks its vast cultural, linguistic, and demographic diversity—comparable to that of Europe. If diversity justifies country caps, it doesn't apply to India. Clinging to such policies seems outdated.
If India were divided into smaller countries like Europe, the same South Asian population, culture, and diversity would persist, but the artificial constraints tied to the name "India" would disappear.
alienallys commented on Show HN: Autotab – Programmable AI browser for turning web tasks into APIs · Posted by u/jonasnelle
We work with fortune 500 companies and have HIPAA compliant offerings, so we are very sensitive to privacy and security concerns. Fundamentally the models need to operate on whatever browser tasks users ask Autotab to perform, and we need to use frontier vision models like 4o and Claude to reliably perform them (model providers are the affiliates in question). If you have specific concerns happy to answer them.
Your response doesn't seem to address the Privacy concerns raised. Why is the policy so broad and invasive? There's no mention of how you handle PII data collected as telemetry.

On a similar note, I've a request for the HN community. Can anyone recommend a low-latency NER model/service.
I'm building an assistant that gives information on local medical providers that match your criteria. I'm struggling with query expansion and entity recognition. For any incoming query, I would want to NER for medical terms (which are limited in scope and pre-determined), and subsequently where I would do Query rewriting and expansion.
I learned much about why Quibi failed from comments rather than that article. That article is poorly written and seems more confused than the Quibi founder.

Diwali is an Hindu festival where Indians burn firecrackers in millions. Should stop the festival and firecracker.

A poor country like India can't extract justice from a rich one. We're the so-called third world, so don't deserve to ask questions.
