GHA still beats Circle CI or trying to run your own Jenkins - even with all the downtime. I'd move in a heartbeat if there were good alternatives.

The official YCombinator stance is that Flock was a huge success as an investment - which it seemingly was, given that they managed to sign deals with what seems like every tiny mu…

Surely writing 374 lbs is easier than 26st 10lb.

I've seen Eve Online corporations that do a better job of steganographic marking than this.

No, it's for IoT. Don't install an IoT Operating System if you are planning to do normal Operating System things.

Xbox/Microsoft Store Auth is used for a ton of logins, not just games. Similarly, you can be dismissive of Edge (another thing not included), but the Microsoft Webview Framework is…

Terrible, almost consultant-level advice - particularly on a thread about how the actual Windows 10 release is getting extended support until 2027. The IoT release is missing a ton…

Good luck. Had a friend do a startup that was using similar algos to how Google Maps detect roads in satellite imagery to detect cancer in tissues. Actually worked pretty well - en…

Like with most full products that are vibecoded, there's very little to no originality in this - just strange packaging of things that already exist.

Yeah, and if he had taken all that money, bet it on black, and won in roulette a couple times, he'd have also made a killing. Didn't mean it was the right strategy or a moral decis…

Wouldn't each plugin be a different piece of 'software'?

CATIA licenses which are the most expensive I've seen are roughly $600/month per user. Where are you seeing "thousands of dollars per seat"?

The very article you're commenting on says "gluten free" pasta (or at least the one type of Barilla spaghetti they tested) becomes the "real deal" when boiled with salt, which you …

Accounting still exists in Europe, it turns out. Tax preparation/filing software is only about 25% part of Intuit's business.

Gemini is a pretty bad choice for an LLM. Most people using it are doing so because Google bundled it for free with a couple things, not for its quality.

Man, that's a weird looking "f" in the font. Why does it have a tail? Feels like someone is trying to inject a company logo/function symbol into the otherwise normal-looking charac…

Anthropic doesn't even use their own harnesses for their support chatbots (they're using fin.ai) - that's how little support matters to them. Seems like either you get attention on…

Hey Boris - why is the best way to get support making a Hacker News or X post, and hoping you reply? Why does Anthropic Enterprise Support never respond to inquiries?

I think it's a very small chance. Look at how many absolutely technically useless CEOs, such as Elon Musk, are still perceived by many in the industry and outside of it. The WeWork…

Yeah, it's funny because they claim that we are reaching out to "Enterprise" support - but it's the exact same support experience as yours, a Fin AI Chatbot that replies with "Than…

Anthropic doesn't allow you to hide or unshare Projects which were shared by team members who are no longer on the team. Contacted them about this two months ago, have yet to hear …

The ones that the reporter says were for yesterday's game? I guess if the nefarious actor also has a time machine, that'd be a pretty big risk.
