Let's say you're asked to generate a vibrant "print" catalog from a db of 100 consumer products. It can't look "generated" like a table of products- it has to be a nice layout catalog, NOT something like…

Every week for the last 3 months I’ve learned a new trick when it comes to getting whatever LLM I’m using at the time to produce better output. That’s my trade, but lots of HNers have more interesting trades than that.…

A lot of technical skills require access to enterprise systems to develop, or years of experience in a domain, or access to client data to learn how to handle real-world scaling issues and real-world edge cases. Is…

I'm about to join a 24-hour gym that is literally 30 meters from my home. It's got everything I need, except that entry is governed by a facial scanner, which presumably checks their DB for an active membership. How bad…

I'm a paying Pro user of ChatGPT, and having to solve 5 captchas, each with 8 possible variations to choose from, is making me want to stop paying and stop using ChatGPT. It's not so much that this is hard (although…

I’m trying to help my parent set up a smart scale over FaceTime. This requires screen sharing for the app but also camera for seeing the smart scale’s display during setup. My parent is perfectly fine with iPads and…

For over 5 years I've had a gait abnormality that neurologists and orthopedic docs can't identify. Have any other hackers found success by identifying a specialist somewhere in another country and traveling there for a…

I have a bunch of generated PDF invoices, which all have the same typo, that I'd like to fix. So far I have tried: * pdftk via bash script * qpdf via bash script * PyPDF2 * pdf-lib via node In all cases, it appears the…

This seems like a Fastmail / DuckDuckGo private e-mail problem. Tinder support ticket emails go into a black hole. Context: I’m in a new city. I reset my Tinder account and bought 6 months of Platinum (their top tier).…

Let’s say the unthinkable happens and by this time next year, for whatever reason at all, Twitter is more profitable and successful than it ever had been before. Knowing this in advance, how would you benefit…

I used my (Transfer) Wise Mastercard to purchase a pair of earbuds in Turkey at a major retailer (think Barnes & Noble). I tried them for a day and then tried to return them. The ANC on the earbuds makes it so that I…
