    I still use "RedReader" on mobile, this works. If that client would be gone, I'd also say goodbye to Reddit.

    Gosh, It's so hard to be excited about any software project nowadays, because I cannot know how much effort was actually put into it. For all I know the author merely wrote a few p…

    This is just prompting an LLM and just dumping it on the site (which is clearly what is happening here, all the articles show the same signs of AI output, no human writing, no styl…

    That bugged me too, so I started looking at other articles - they all look AI generated to me. Whole website should be banned.

    Normally I would agree, but I've seen this happen too often. Common sense be damned, just make the number look good.

    My experience is exactly the opposite (company with more than 10k employees). Getting anything done in Azure takes me 10x as long, as all of Azure is managed by one team, and every…

    It's just as possible that they need to invest more and more for negligible improvements to model performance. These companies are burning through money at an astonishing rate. And…

    It's just one of those sites that focuses on one thing, and does that extremely well, without trying to extract as much money from its users as possible. Rare thing nowadays.

    With Windows 10 going out of support soon, I suspect there will be an increase in Linux adoption. After all, why throw out perfectly good hardware because of an arbitrary rule that…

    GDPR doesn't stop personal data being stored. It handles whom it can be shared with, when it has to be deleted, and only collect as much data as required. Also gives transparency t…

    Well if it continues like this, that's what will happen. And I dread that future. Noone will care to share anything for free anymore, because it's AI companies profiting off their …

    I'm 99% sure I already saw a product launch on HN for precisely this idea.

    Why would we embrace that even more? In Software Development we try to keep things deterministic as much as possible. The more variables we're introducing into our software, the mo…

    Microsoft has really been putting a lot of focus on improving it with each release. I love reading through the blog articles for each major release, that outline all the performanc…

    Can't you do the same with Obsidian too? It's also just Markdown, and I believe there's even a plugin to perform Git commands within Obsidian. The main issue you can run into, is w…

    Ah yes, that'll solve all problems ( https://www.web3isgoinggreat.com/ ). Cynicism aside, I'd rather not receive compensation in a currency that's mainly used for speculation. And …

    I'm glad it worked out for your friend, but I can't help feeling extremely sad about this. What I mean is, why is the healthcare system so broken in the first place, that you need …

    Uhm.. Kagi has plenty of AI features. :) To be fair, you can turn them off if you wish.

    Not really, but, like a lot of people buying EVs, I care about what impact my lifestyle has on the environment and society in general. And I can't (In good conscience) support that…

    As someone who owns a Model 3, I hate how Musk constantly comes up when talking about the car (and never in a positive light). Frankly I find the brand so damaged now because of hi…

    I'm confused by the pricing, why is going from Base to Medium more than double the price? It's cheaper to get two base tier servers and distribute containers instead, which is unus…

    This sounds interesting, I've been looking for lightweight solutions to fill out PDF forms. The documentation could use some work though.

    That's really great - I imagine the people there also love sharing their knowledge, it gives them a feeling of helping too.

    Thank you for posting an alternate link, as someone who doesn't have a Twitter/X account, the site has become almost unusable.
