Are there no versions between MacOS 15 and 26???

Yes, but are self promotion posts not required to use "Show HN"/"Tell HN"? Or at least a disclosure on the comments...

While this is certainly impressive, I believe it is not a good answer from a user's perspective. Instead of having Claude automatically spend tokens in an unrelated task, I would h…

I would take it as just rounding 2,435 -> 2,400. No big deal.

Several comments here talk about "nearly" having a heart attack. But I wonder: since it's happened to so many people, chances are someone had a heart attack for real. Can they lega…

> Some ppl don't like to hear it. But I would assume that token costs when using an inference provider are cheaper than electricity of using locally. Maybe, but for how long? Price…

> Premium gaming and premium content of any kind seems unsustainable. That's one of the main problems of current gaming. Games have become just "content". And as such they are disp…

Quite the cryptic tytle. Were they trying to save tokens?

Yes, reading those in the same sentence I also thought about a spin on 2048, the game.

People have got too used to Steam doing things well, but don't forget that: 1) that's not the norm, and 2) there's no telling when it will change. Gabe Newell will retire not too l…

> The tension is that digital goods are somewhere between. That's the thing. If they are truly goods, they cannot be in between! Otherwise they are being handled as services and as…

If they have no DRM, I would say it does!

This article is quite right, but there's even more to it than that. Why should we need to hold ANY kind of relationship with the seller/provider of an article we bought? You certai…

So now we need a framework for unit tastes

Careful! Some of the scenes you would think as CGI are actually using practical effects. Even a couple of scenes with liquid metal on screen were using models.

And would that really be a bad thing?...

I see in the front page Pyodide 314.0 and now also Python 3.14. Is it a coincidence or is there some meaning to these "pi versions" in Python?

I am surprised to hear this. In Spain there are plenty of physical toy stores. I can easily think of a few not too far from my home. Not only that, it's also common here to see ent…

Not just AI. Every subscription in general can be a time bomb. You grow more dependent on it, and the provider can disappear or take it away at any moment.

I always see the same when someone says things like this in any article, video or comment. There will be like 20 replies saying that it's because they chose the wrong linux distro.…

Unfortunately no, Unicode is not simply a mapping of bytes to characters. It is a mapping of numbers to code points, and in some cases you can even get the same characters with mul…

I read that article long time ago, and for me it's a hard disagree. A system as complex and quirky as Unicode can never be considered "plain", and even today it is common for many …

Indeed it seems I was not well informed. Back in the 90s I did see several pieces of ANSI art, but even then the people and magazines I knew always called all of it ASCII art. In f…

It's weird to see this called "ANSI art". Is that an American thing? I don't think I've ever heard that in Europe, everybody calls it ASCII art.

Fishy or not, it worked. I found it on the front page here
