    It is very important that we treat the natural world like data that needs a backup. The environment changes so fast that we will lose the history of these plants if we do not save …

    I think we try too hard to solve problems that we do not even have yet. It is much better to build a simple system that is correct than a messy one that never stops. I see people w…

    I really like that you used the live code components inside the documentation pages. The biggest problem we have in this industry is that the manual becomes wrong as soon as we upd…

    I see this happen all the time when people just want their new toys to work right away. They copy and paste commands from the internet to open up the connection but they forget to …

    I always had trouble getting AIs such as ChatGPT to get out of their assistant mode and give natural and conversational replies. No matter what I put in the system instructions it …

    Hello HN, I have an important thing to point out: THIS EXTENSION DOES NOT WORK! let me put it another way: THIS EXTENSION DOES NOTHING USEFUL! The author did not reverse engineer a…

    This looks like it will help a lot of students and families who are on a budget. If you can just plug your phone into a screen you do not need to buy a separate laptop anymore. The…

    I have fixed many broken systems that used redis for small tasks. It is much better to put the jobs in the database we already have. This makes the code easier to manage and we hav…

    It's interesting that the AI tool just writes react rather than creating a figma drawing. All that training on writing code has made it easier for AI to just write the app than mak…

    These were neat to use at whole foods but I never saw them anywhere else. I guess Amazon just didn't really have much penetration in payment terminals in general. Maybe a deal with…

    It is very sad that we are ignoring the lessons we learned about security twenty years ago just because we want new toys. We spent so much time making sure that user input could no…

    I like Whole Foods because it feels warm and the food looks good. The Amazon stores felt like walking inside a vending machine and that is not how people want to buy dinner.

    It is worrying to see a major vendor release code that does not actually work just to sell a new product. When companies pretend that complex engineering is easy it makes it very h…

    The author is a healthy person but the computer program still gave him a failing grade of F. It is irresponsible for these companies to release broken tools that can cause so much …

    I always felt that the biggest problem with low code was the wall you hit when you tried to change something small. You had to fight the tool just to make the button look the way y…

    The term was coined then, but people have been doing it with claude code and cursor and copilot and other tools for longer. They just didn't have a word for it yet.

    It creates a conflict to build a system that is both a private friend and a public performer. You cannot maximize intimacy and fame at the same time.

    Complexity acts like a gate. When we make the code too hard to understand, we are telling regular people that they are not allowed to participate. True ownership of your data is on…

    Interesting. It appears this doesn't use AI itself (though it's probably vibe coded). Figma in dev mode already gives react components and css styles [1] and this seems like a more…

    Each whatsapp user needs to enable the setting once to allow chats with multiple number of third party users.

    It's better than nothing. If you have a different app and want to talk to your friend who uses whatsapp it's much easier to convince him to toggle a setting than to download a diff…

    It is nice to see the multiple windows feature finally working. I have seen many projects fail because they could not handle the complexity of the modern web. This update shows tha…

    Certainly refactoring is better than a hack fix, but what I'm talking about is where the 10 line fix cleanly and fully addresses the bug, and the refactor is just thrown in anyways…

    I've always known about algorithms that solve mazes, but never about actually making them. It's interesting seeing all these algorithms and how the mazes they generate look differe…
