Two things: A) With great power comes great responsibility + making the world better through eradication of diseases, heightened food and economic security, improvements to the stability of nations, access to shared…
This is somehow the most Hacker News thread I've ever seen and I love it.
Entirely uncritical state controlled or substantially aligned media masquerading as news is always bad and should be criticized. See also almost anyone called on in White House press briefings these days. Plus, you are…
I don't know how long ago that was, but I've been a Pixelmator user for at least a few years, and it's leaps and bounds ahead of where it was when I started with it. Coupled with Photomater -- its cousin app -- they're…
Though way less likely to turn it into a cursed subscription zombie.
Putting concerns about future states aside, congrats to the Pixelmator team. I've been using the app for years and it's a really great piece of software, well designed and well built. It's always been incredible value…
A deterrent to prevent additional whistleblowers from coming forward? If the issues are as massively systemic as facts to date suggest, it seems like there might be a number of other shoes that could drop. Boeing's…
Really cool idea and generally solid execution -- I would totally use this. That said, a couple bits: 1. I can't seem to click the events on the map in Safari on Mac. 2. The map doesn't load at all in Brave (I even…
This comment has some real "startup based on some light prompt engineering atop ChatGPT gets put out of business by ChatGPT's latest feature" energy.
Wow, thanks for that -- that's an excellent slide deck.
Yeah, no kidding. This is what LLMs are not meant for 101 -- it'll get a lot right, a solid amount of the time (spare me the anecdotes), but the idea that someone who doesn't know anything about a topic should take its…
Think "employment contract."
When you get them all, it's "Queen Bee." I've only ever gotten it once -- for whatever reason, the puzzle just clicked that day -- but it was extremely satisfying.
Psst, there are actually five.
Yeah, +1 to Spelling Bee -- that game is great! That said, this post needs a SPOILER tag.
Big +1 for Code by Petzold. Just started the 2nd edition that came out last month and I'm blown away by Petzold's ability to pack in meaningful, interesting information without sacrificing readability.
Man, I know this wasn't really the intention of the comment, but I just read through that thread and got a little nostalgic. Crazy that was like 13 years ago. Sheesh.
Yeah +1. This is impressive and I would have used it in a heartbeat for a new project I'm involved in, but the inability to even consider commercialization means going this route is dead in the water. Will be looking…
Could not agree more. I've shilled it three times in the past week alone. And I've also taken to mentioning it in any README involving env vars. Awesome tool.
Yeah, same here -- serious 90's nostalgia in the best way. This is awesome.
Haven't done any codebase spelunking, but their FAQ at the bottom of the page states it pretty clearly: "Who provides the Brave Talk service? The Brave Talk service is provided in partnership with 8x8. And the service…
Huh, so trying to open up access to real information (instead of, you know, propaganda) about what was happening on the ground in the early days of a pandemic is now being a "Western propagandist?" Would you have said…
Yeah, the whole "she should be more polite about it, and really she brought this on herself for not accepting the terms of a made-up agreement she was not actually offered that's not actually mentioned in the article"…
Because it's in the article? And you can certainly find out all about it elsewhere on the internet? What are you insinuating as the alternative, by the way? She's doing it for kicks?
** as the only available form of protest against her detention, arrest and conviction for the sharing of information from ground zero in the early days of what would become a global pandemic
