    This assumes a future where everyone is an entrepreneur, self-starter, creator or innovator. But people with the drive to create their own ideas and value account for a very small …

    In deductive puzzle games like this, it’s nice when the hints teach you how to play the game instead of just solving the puzzle for you. I got stuck and couldn’t figure out what to…

    Another good feature in ColorSweeper that would be nice in your game is a “sketch” view that lets you place potential mines/fangs on the board so you can see how things would play …

    This is fun. But I think you need a way to specify in the flag how many fangs are there. A similar modern minesweeper game is ColorSweeper. A feature I like in that game is it will…

    It’s true that Claude Code will continue to suggest further things to do, seemingly forever. But I’ve never had an issue making the call of “this is good enough” or “that’s not nec…

    How would they know for sure if the submitted code was written by a human or AI? If they had a “no-AI” policy, there would be no way to enforce it. The policy makes sense to me giv…

    The appendix has examples of the statements that led to the most disagreement: https://lenz.io/research/llm-disagreement

    This is wrong. You can’t convert between the two because it’s possible to have a lot of wealth with very little (even zero) income. Billionaires can completely avoid income taxes b…

    This seems useful, but I don’t think this could replace most use cases for Meetup or Eventbrite. This actually sounds more similar to Partiful, which I like for one-off events. I w…

    This is really cool. I’m not sure what I would ever use it for, but it’s a cool idea and seems well executed.

    As someone who lives in the US, I was surprised to hear they’re facing jail time for this. In the cases I’ve heard, the company itself is sued and just has to pay damages to the vi…

    I’m surprised Hey isn’t mentioned. That’s the only example I know of someone recently trying to reinvent email. Maybe it wasn’t included because it’s part of Basecamp and not its o…

    Yes, it looks broken to me. The top article is too close to the header. I’m on iOS Safari.

    Yeah. The title implies that the model has developed a scary sense of self preservation, but when you read the details it’s exactly what you said. The conditions that elicited this…

    This would make a cool progress bar replacement. Replace percentage with the number of dots (0-100).

    I’m not an expert in physics, but this seems like a misguided critique to me. My understanding is that physicists aren’t looking for “new” physics because they’re trying to upend e…

    I agree. I generally support the EFF, but I disagree with them on this. I read through the bill and the language is very specific to revenge porn (although I’m not a lawyer). I thi…

    Components look great. I would pay for these if I needed one of them for a project. It would be great if they worked in React Native too.

    Instagram Messages and Snapchat also have an AI chatbot you can’t get rid of. It’s even more annoying on those platforms because they appear at the top of your chat list and it’s e…

    Yeah, you should be able to manually lock or they should lock automatically once it’s guaranteed a tile is in the right place. Like if there’s only one black tile in a row and that…

    Yeah, it feels like there’s a slight delay when you tap on a tile. I’m playing on an iPhone.

    People like to say that the American healthcare system is great if you’re rich, but based on this study, that’s not true. Interesting.

    Can you color code the brackets so it’s easy to see how the clues are nested? Like outermost brackets are red, one level of nesting is blue, next level of nesting is orange. My bra…

    AI can definitely produce a deletion. In fact, I commonly use AI to do this. Copy some code and prompt the AI to make the code simpler or more concise. The output will usually be f…
