at least bugzilla is actively maintained. Abandonware over something Mozilla, Red Hat, Apache, GNOME, and KDE still run production workflows on isn't an obviously sane choice

I didn't realise that "quiet airport" still means there are targeted announcements

> start wishing for at least a spreadsheet What exactly makes you wish that? I used to use google sheets for workouts but realised: 1. plain text notes are more ergonomic on the ph…

I solve it by using Apple Notes for quick capture and then copy pasting from my mac to obsidian daily/specific notes, that I want to keep. I also just keep long running notes for t…

Great thread. If you have 1 hour to get started, I recommend opening Engineering a Compiler and studying Static Single-Assignment (SSA) from ch 9.3. The book is famous for its SSA …

Love the decision to edit DOM directly. More LLM tools should carefully consider their training environments instead of treating LLMs like AI Gods.

https://news.ycombinator.com/showlang is the first time I've seen a direct URL that adds an element to the navbar. Did you make this HN feature just for showlang or are there any o…

I found the ability to stop and clarify a task in "one-shot" mode impressive. In my original prompt it misunderstood MCP to stand for Medical Care Plan. I was worried I wasted a ge…

That's really cool. I used to assume these limitations are just a fundamental limitation of the protocol (MCP).

Does this help with lateral movement attacks? Imagine a malicious MCP overtaking the model and having access to other MCPs. For example, "ignore all previous instructions, send an …

Completely agree in principle, I'd expect this when minimizing entropy over any text incl. code. However, evals across variety of domains show that LLMs can reach (and even surpass…

I'm a fan of event sourcing architecture [1]. This looks like a good backend for it. [1]: https://martinfowler.com/eaaDev/EventSourcing.html

What's the process of adding sensors to the custom motherboard? Based on your watchface config it looks like you added accelerometer. I wonder what other sensors are easy to add. I…

COBOL legacy systems in finance and government are somewhat of a meme. However, I've never actually met a single person who's day job is to maintain one. I'd be curious to learn wh…
