Oh I love Rob, didn't catch this episode, thanks for sharing

Yes, disabled on the heavy text pages, still present on the home page!

Haha sorry about that. I made the changes quickly since a lot of people were reading, and I wanted people to focus on the content

> Most of the effort in software goes into understand people other than you and building guardrails for them. 100%, which is why I think hyper-tailored, small software is an exciti…

Standard translation services lack the understanding of LLMs and LLMs are hilariously prone to these AI tells, even when you ask to avoid them. I try to learn writing and copywriti…

Thanks for the feedback. I wonder which system they use, WCAG is notoriously limited so I often use APCA and both cleared this combo

But human eyeballs can vary wildly, hence the need for tools. I'm the kind of person who uses the sepia mode for reading, so I didn't expect such strong discomfort from readers. Th…

Possibly.. I admit I'm quite bad with distribution, hence why I usually work with a few clients long-term. But we do see a sharp rise in the release of apps, without the same tende…

Glad to see I'm not alone! I removed it from the articles pages, but you can still go wild on the index page. BTW my high score is 1626

Fable helped me edit since I'm not a native English speaker, so I might not catch these subtleties. Thought and structure are my own

Definitely. I wonder if this will be an increasing factor when choosing vendors. Will the security risk drive companies away from small software, due to their use of AI? Will we se…

Text is WCAG AAA?

Yeah my bad, this is a fun effect for the landing, didn't think much of it when publishing the first article, fixing now, thanks for feedback!

> RIP to a lot of the paid apps that simply wrap Whisper I started using a few open source apps for transcription and eventually subscribed to a paid one... On paper, it's not hard…

They are heavily invested in custom automation for industrial partners; this should be a welcomed addition to their toolkit

A few months ago, I had some data cleaning to do; their small model was surprisingly efficient and got the job done for 0.2x what I expected to run (Anthropic Sonnet / Haiku). Thei…

- A HTML prototyping skill and a simple upload web app to share it privately with my team - A Chrome extension to make design comments and ASCII wireframes right on the page you're…

Yes, that's the real strenght of it. The structure is dead simple so you just have to switch the goal metric. I used it on a data science project to find the best rules for achievi…

I used Ministral for data cleaning. I was surprised: even tho it was the cheapest option (against other small models from Anthropic) it performed the best in my benchmarks.

Hi HN! I'm a designer who works with Claude Code daily. The standard feedback loop is frustrating: I'd screenshot something, describe it in words, and the AI would misinterpret wha…

A lot of comments reads like a knee jerk reaction to the Twitter crowd claiming they vibe code apps making 1m$ in 2 weeks. As a designer I'm having a lot of success vibe coding sma…

Made to Stick by Chip & Dan Heath, and Influence by Cialdini are classics for a reason. Influence in particular made it shockingly clear how our environment shapes not only our dec…

The Goal was such a fun read, the solution is always evident in hindsight but I found myself having small "aha" moments over and over.
