I spent half my day following your launch, and it looked like things were going downhill pretty quickly. How have things been since? You turned on your paid subscription signup?

Damn, I have a few of these. I keep them backed up to a RAID setup but still disappointing to hear.

Years ago I tried to install and sign up for Turo on iOS to rent out a car I owned. It was a luxury car with a rebuilt title. After I put in the VIN of the car, I received an error…

I heard recently (on Lex Fridman's podcast with Marc Andreessen) that Oppenheimer was called a "cry-baby scientist" by President Truman, and that his groveling campaign was conside…

Cool, I've had "add a personal calendar appointment scheduler feature" on my backlog for months, and for some reason I just didn't want to do Calendly. Maybe it's because I'm prett…

Surprised to hear no mention of Obsidian ( https://obsidian.md/ ). I switched from Evernote to Notion years ago and finally switched beginning of this year from Notion -> Obsidian.…

It seems like there's a lot of recent interest and effort in open-source or self-hosted Notion-like/markdown-with-widgets applications and platforms. AppFlowy ( https://github.com/…

So, to mitigate, avoid changing Github organization names if possible, and if not, preserve / re-register the former organization name to prevent impersonation?

My first 5 minutes have been positive. I've worked for years on a similar platform but never expected to have the time to ship, so I appreciate that you've implemented a few patter…

Really? Why would they fire that off from the client as a separate call? Thanks for the heads’ up, will check out.

I pretty strongly disagree with this take. I’ve used Reddit for over a decade almost entirely as a “lurker” meaning without an account. The majority of what I watched and read has …

Exactly what we were doing.

It's funny that I can think of a few legitimate use cases for this type of service: - Deploying a new brand identity. I've worked with larger marketing agencies that may create man…

I've been working on this for awhile now and I'd love to chat. I'll send you an email.

I think it's very clear that the recent LLM boom is directly responsible for Twitter, Reddit, and others quickly moving to restricted APIs with exorbitant pricing structures. I don…

I worked with an electrical engineer who disclosed to me a mid 8 figures investment made by a PE firm to develop Ethereum FPGA and ASIC hardware, and while he told me they were und…

Depending on the Terms of Service flavor your platform of choice serves you, it’s generally that you own the content you post, but grant an infinite, irrevocable license to use tha…

You’re right, but I think it’s also pretty clear that A) there is demand for functionality that depends on semi-real-time data, e.g. a prompt like “explain {recent_trending_topic} …

Sad to see no mention of the Motorola Q (1) which I got in 2006. My first mobile phone was also my first ‘smartphone’ with a full keyboard. I didn’t have any cellular service (I wa…

I have the same tendency to fixate on small, relatively unimportant tasks when faced with unrewarding difficult work. The technique I’ve used to channel this to my benefit is to “t…

A weekend in jail for an equipment violation, or for the failure to appear? Either way, that’s absurd and really is emblematic of how inefficient the American justice system is.

Sorry, didn't mean to ring any bells - but hey, you've made #1, so hopefully a little heads' up was helpful!

Site hung for me (us-east) on the first few tries. Get ready for the HN hug, Ashley! I've never used any animation tools, and it's been on my list to make a few basic logo animatio…

I’ve been hesitating using ChatGPT for copywriting, in the same way I haven’t used Copilot for anything other than exploration. Part of my resistance is “the principle” in the sens…
