    I used to connect to that exact BBS over dialup in the early 90s. I'm old.

    This is pretty epic! This should come standard with Claude Code. Thanks for this! Now going to bed, and will wake up to a brand new feature :)

    Very nice! Awesome landing page! FYI, the `www` version of your domain doesn't resolve. You might want to add a redirect.

    I liked changing the copyright company name to my own name. Made me feel like such a boss.

    I happen to have downloaded the master branch at 9am this morning. Here's a torrent: magnet:?xt=urn:btih:92042e65d1b38cd5d97c29baa4d0c9e2af46f355&dn=bypass-paywalls-chrome-clean-ma…

    Off-topic: Tailscale seems like such a perfect acquisition target for Cloudflare. It seems like there's perfect product and culture alignment. Amirite?

    Nice UI, easier to use and more flexible, deploys Docker containers.

    I went down that rabbit hole as well, and I also settled on Outline for our business. We haven't widely deployed it yet, but it's been working great during our limited testing. It …

    Same here. I was a customer for a long time and loved the service, but having to watch my “search spend” and constantly going over limits is really annoying. I ended up cancelling …

    TypingMind is quite good. There's a MacOS wrapper, or you could wrap it into an executable for Windows yourself. https://www.typingmind.com

    Docker is awesome tech but a terrible company with a terrible business model. I don’t see them surviving long term. Especially with the way they operate and alienate people.

    High end loudspeakers for music/home theatre. Turns out, speaker tech evolves pretty slowly. I bought a pretty high end set 15 years ago and it’s still miles ahead of most of what’…

    They have LONG way to go before they can prove sustainable in the long run and justify their valuation.

    The problem I see with their business model is that the technology has long been commoditized, and alternatives are often better. It's a pretty tough spot to be in. Anecdotally, I …

    He makes a ton of money, but if we look what he’s accomplished since he took the helm at Apple, I think it’s fair for him to be immensely compensated. Many thought Apple was dead w…

    Rick Beato has one of the best music-related channels out there. His passion for music is contagious. I’ve been watching him for a few years and I couldn’t recommend it more.

    Tiny, mostly in Japan. Rails pretty much introduced Ruby to the world.

    Another +1 for Kagi here. It’s quite amazing.

    I agree. I think it was totally justified and well timed. I'm glad they came out explaining why they're different and better, and why they can be trusted. What's pretty tacky is ho…
