This is clearly an AI bot. Watch it automatically respond to my comment.

I believe Hotwire for Ruby on Rails uses a lot of HTMX under the hood.

This is something I am very curious to learn from others since I am, relatively speaking, quite new to HN. HN posts seem to go from very supportive to very critical of AI with very…

I really like the Ruby on Rails ecosystem and have deeply considered working at Shopify. This has to be one of the hardest parts of working there. A bug takes down other peoples bu…

Applying here was an odd experience. No acknowledgment or reply even after multiple follow ups. This was from applying back in 2025.

The bread shop analogy made my year

Perhaps even something like the Opus 4.7 token cost would become correlated with the market fluctuations...

I wonder how much Robinhood will profit from this change. Obviously how much the average user will profit / compile debt from this change is a lot more variable.

How did you get 300+ karma in only 19 days? Looking at your comments, it looks like a bot has been reading articles and leaving easy questions to build karma. What on earth is this…

Glad - I - wasn’t the only one that saw - AI article - giveaways… GitHub stars have been proven to be easily purchasable. Happy to hear the progress and that should be celebrated w…

Lol love all the responses

It feels very much written by a team of humans. Here's to hoping I'm not wrong.

I respected the "No Pure Managers" part. That's similar to what happened at our org. The question remains, if there are no pure managers, then is this CSM / Sales shipping producti…

>Even though I personally am moving some projects away from Bun, don't take my advice as gospel. Always appreciated nuance.

I really appreciate this share. It's very honest. Makes me think that anything taken too far can be a bad thing. Pity in its raw form is an incredibly empathetic side of our human …

I can't stop thinking about the amount of people they engaged with simply never to be seen again. Are gym membership commitments a lot less serious than I remember these days?

This article fails to mention Sarah burned out and is now a barista.

I appreciate the data driven approach. The article is spot on, it's really hard to distinguish all the discourse with the reality. Things most people grew up with in the 70s had ye…

I’ve noticed a lot of business models intentionally try to funnel you through their sales pipeline and only expose the price after “getting to know you”. Which is slang for “gettin…

GitHub didn't have a CTO until 2017. Vlad Federov only started in 2024.

I can't help but think it's a bit more complicated than that. GitHub back in the day was a healthy version of "Move fast and break things". I wonder what's different.

> I want to be there but it doesn't want me to be there. This hit me pretty hard. I hope GitHub finds its way sooner rather than later.

I have the highest hopes for this. At the same time, I can’t help but be skeptical of the claims for no ads / no data selling lasting -forever-. Build the platform, then find out h…

Man, we really took the Google Plus days for granted…
