    I'll be curious what the collecter's market looks like for Apple Vision Pro a decade from now. I imagine there are far fewer of these things out in the world than Apple hoped there…

    I'd be interested in a podcast app that allows me to subscribe to written RSS content and uses AI to (transparently) convert them to audio podcasts. The time/attention it takes to …

    One thing confuses me... Why invest so much into automony on streets/roads when most (all?) US trains/trams/busses still have operators? Elon said himself that busses have 5x the o…

    IIRC the re-implementation was necessary for type-safety.

    I would really love to see a "maps" app that focuses specifically on local discovery for businesses and other points of interest. Or, one that at least makes a real attempt to deli…

    Seems like this exists in a similar problem domain as pkl? https://pkl-lang.org/index.html

    The only time I've had success with using AI to drive development work is for "writers block" situations where I'm staring at an empty file or using a language/tool with which I'm …

    > I cannot fathom why it is still done this way. Like many things in America, the government is lobbied to create an unnecessary problem by private companies who aim to profit off …

    The nice thing is there are plenty of socially-acceptable, but still every bit as objectively valid reasons to advocate for policies aimed as reducing the use of cars in cities.

    I've been feeling this pretty accutely of late. When stresses of work/life pile up, the inability to free myself from the unceasing car noise to find some tranquility can feel down…

    We do have a degree of abstraction through terraform modules, but I've found that the same copy-paste problem applies to the terraform that composes those modules together. This is…

    Thank you so much for the explanation! I see much more clearly how something like this could be extremely useful.

    I'm having a little trouble understanding the problem(s) Pkl is trying to solve. After reading the title, my assumption was that Pkl was yet another newer, better configuration lan…

    I also wonder whether it's an attempt to normalize certain aspects of the form factor to ease people into what Apple sees as the future of this technology. Namely, I wonder if the …

    I wonder how much of that is due to the specific nature of this type of product, and how it compares to those past launches. With iPhone & iPad, you had products that people could …

    My understanding is "yes, but only type errors that violate guards and pattern matching". Jose's elixirconf keynote this year did a great job providing details on how how this new …

    Counterpoint: The article is titled "HTML First " not "HTML Only " Admittedly I had the same reaction you did as I was reading the article. All I could think was how poorly these a…

    Writing off a shift towards walkability as a "near-impossible social solution" I think is misrepresenting the nature of the problem. Shifting car-centric suburbs and exurbs to a wa…

    As an aside, Elixir is doing some interesting, novel stuff exploring its own type system. José Valim's keynote at ElixirConf last week went into detail on the topic, so I'd keep an…

    This may be a silly question as I'm quite inexperienced w/ ML and a lot of the words in this article don't mean anything to me yet: But, could this "model" be used for something li…

    I've been using Arc for a few months now and find myself really missing it when I use other browsers. This is due to a number of things, like the degree of UI polish and a UX I per…

    The fact this thing has an M2 makes me surprised Apple didn't try to sell it as a Mac . I feel like at the price point, this device makes much more sense as the kind of thing that …

    I also find myself frequently questioning the labeling of things one doesn't like as "political". Having a code of conduct that focuses on treating people w/ respect and discouragi…
