    Exactly. I blame apple for making me run an old macOS version because I don't want to look at this ugly mess they've created. I've been running macOS since 2008, and unless they ma…

    Have you tried WezTerm yet? It also uses lua for writing its configs which makes it highly customizable. I've switched to it from iTerm2 a couple of years ago and gradually added m…

    I think they're using SpamAssassin so don't expect world leading spam filtering. But, they allow you to write your own sieve scripts so you can really customize the experience a lo…

    I recommend purelymail.com (not affiliated in any way, just a happy customer). I've been a customer for 4-5 years, ever since I saw a hn post about them, and I have zero complaints…

    For anyone curious: "c" just means that it's a character device. There is also "b" for block device (e.g. a disk, a partition, or even something like a loopback device) and "p" for…

    I agree with this take, but I'm wondering what vibe coders are doing differently? Are they mainly using certain frameworks that already have a rigid structure, thus allowing LLMs t…

    I honestly don't get vibe coding. I've tried it multiple times, but even after spending 4 hours on a fresh project I don't feel like I know what the hell is going on anymore. At th…

    They actually sued a lego youtuber (or threatened to sue - unsure) for using a lego brick in his logo. this lead to him creating a new word for lego bricks "Klemmbausteine" which m…

    You should remove any reference to LEGO from the website and the examples. LEGO is extremely protective of its brand (similar to / worse than Nintendo) and does not want third part…

    On one hand, it's super impressive how far we've come in such a short amount of time. On the other hand, this feels like a blatant PR move. GPT-5 is just awful. It's such a downgra…

    Yes, for me it is and it was even before this experience. But, you know, there's a growing crowd that believes AI is almost at AGI level and that they'll vibe code their way to a F…

    I wish they wouldn't use JS to demonstrate the AI's coding abilities - the internet is full of JS code and at this point I expect them to be good at it. Show me examples in complex…

    I've added a section to the README that goes into the subtleties of compiletime elimination and what to watch out for to ensure that calls to dlg.Printf can actually be eliminated:…

    Well, my vim is missing buttons like these and I wasn't aware such a feature existed. Maybe I'm just old, maybe it's just a different approach, but I built dlg for myself because i…

    Thank you! You're absolutely right, it annoys me as well. It's a bit finicky to do so, but I'm currently in an exploratory phase of providing an even more fine grained stack tracin…

    I do write tests but I'm not a fan of aiming for 100% coverage because it's incredibly tedious to achieve, and the gains in my experience are marginal. That being said even with 10…

    In short: You're right - Go will still evaluate argument expressions. In hindsight, I should've made that more obvious, not calling this out initially was an expert blind spot on m…

    Show HN: Dlg – Zero-cost printf-style debugging for Go

    Hey HN, I tend to use printf-style debugging as my primary troubleshooting method and only resort to gdb as a last resort. While I like its ease of use printf debugging isn't witho…

    Sure you can, I've done it plenty of times. I'm genuinely curious why you think it's not possible. The only reasons I can think of: - you're rewriting a legacy system and migrate p…
