I get the same feeling. There’s a lack of polish and intentionality to it. It’s a cool idea and a nice demo, and there’s certainly a lot of buttons and features. But it’s been laggy on my device, it’s visually…
The blog post does the “It’s not X, it’s Y” pattern a few times. It’s hard not to assume the post is just produced by an LLM. It’s frustrating not knowing whether I’m reading the musings of a real person, or the output…
Which is to say, not at all? A hammer isn’t subservient, it doesn’t have the capacity to be. Saying a hammer is subservient is stretching the definition for literary flourish, but it doesn’t actually make a lot of…
I think there are some pretty good ways to understand it now. When the electricity goes out, (most) people get similarly upset. No electricity means no internet, and all of a sudden everything that people had planed to…
Yes it does matter. Users need to know that the updated URL is correct and trustworthy.
I interpreted the parent comment as asking what society _specifically_? Not some abstract concept, but something that exists a step or two away from where we are right now.
Which writing style standard does that correspond to? This is an internet discussion board with people from diverse backgrounds. Informal quotation style is common. Your comment is the first time I’ve seen someone…
The tool definitely needs to address tone transformations, it’s a big part of how the language is spoken. Otherwise it’s mostly useful for a first year student speaking in isolation. Hoping to see improvements in this…
As a non-American, I like the way HN is moderated. This isn’t an American politics and domestic issues forum.
Some of these infractions also carry the risk of losing your license. So it is more than just the fine.
Why not? Knowing you’re going to get caught and fined for running a red light, which typically holds significant penalties, would act as a deterrent. You can lose your license for that kind of nonsense (via demerit…
I’m a bit biased here, because a close friend’s mother was killed by someone speeding through a red light. I think automated enforcement of minor driving infractions is a good thing. More efficient use of government…
I assume it’s getting down votes because it’s off-topic. The parent comment was suggesting external mice as a temporary measure to debug the intermittent issue they’re facing. Whether or not external micr suck on MacOS…
If you don’t want to use CC, just use the API
Just one anecdotal perspective: I do not of know a single person in my extended family/professional network/social circle who has had location tracking or app eavesdropping directly impact their life. The only impact…
We appear to be talking about different topics entirely. Your points seem to be about the effectiveness of political involvement, but the comment you’re replying to and the quote I posted relates to political…
>Well yeah of course it's not hard to get involved in politics, if the involvement is supporting people who are rich and powerful even if it is via the use of a more modest looking young mouthpiece. I fail to see how…
In practice? Yes it’s unavoidable. Unless you build in enough buffer to account for _every_ possible scenario out of your control, the probability of running late is non-zero.
IME (in Canada), the cash discount is surprisingly close to 15%, which is approximately the sales tax in most provinces.
