The ads and recommendations on Firetv sticks has been getting worse and worse. I tried modifying it to use a custom launcher but they keep breaking it. I think I'm going to just tr…

No need to connect or use any smart tv feature. How much is your time worth? Apple TV is the best experience (not even close to FireTV) for the cost of it. There are ways to get co…

Staying out does both, is also the easiest and costs less.

In Ontario "two-six" is called a twixer

> I've heard so many ridiculous stories about 'AI' that I'm at the point where I initially took this to mean the LLM and not the company had made the request. Only through its huma…

> I’m sure I’m way over simplifying this, to the point of stupidity, but tariffs raise prices on foreign goods to encourage the sale and/or development of local goods, don’t they? …

I guess I should have prefaced that if it was made with responsiveness in mind and you took from factor into consideration. Anything can suck. Responsiveness was a huge issue back …

It didn't suck. BlackBerry had native API support for Air. You could easily port a Flash game using Air and integrate any native APIs you needed. We gave phones and tablets away to…

When is the last time you tried Cursor? It definitely doesn't import libraries. It can if you prompt it to but you have control. I find it works great it you prompt it one step at …

Not the only WordPress host and they have no obligation to anything for an open source project. This story isn't about them it's about their customers who chose to use their servic…

The internet still exists outside of social media sites designed to keep you there. I hope kids under 16 get addicted to anything else and don't turn to social media when they're o…

Elon likes to buy things.

Ya this definitely happened a few times.

Haha I was working there at the time. I don't remember how many emails came in but well over 100. Emails were so abused there though. I would get over 100 a day that were work rela…

This is what design systems are for. You only sand UI when you're initially creating the component. Sometimes you combine components in different ways or need to make a one off. It…

I thought the role of school was for teaching kids how to think. Doesn't take much imagination to think how a viral Chase money "glitch" can get past common sense when kids ignore …

In Canada we've had email money transfer since 2003. It used to cost $1 if you had a different bank then the person you were sending to but now it's free. Generally only good for f…

Ya. This is why React is popular. It's just a bunch of decently good front end best practices. Popular, not the best X for Y but with easy replacements.

Well said. Also been doing this since the 90s. I still like discovering new sites, blogs and creative things people make. HN is one of the better sites for that.

I agree with some of what the author is saying but add about 10 years of experience. Been coding sites since I was a kid in the mid 90s (I was a web master). I have 10 years workin…

Remix is just react router with a build system. They replaced the build part with Vite. So the core contribution to the community here is just react router. If you watch the react …

You'd have better luck with an LLM with HTML/JavaScript/CSS.

I assume that of that 46% most aren't reading papers or watching good informative YouTube. They're likely doom scrolling social media or watching entertainment YouTube. Movies and …

Even still an airbag to the face with that in won't be pretty.

I used to visit but stopped years ago. Just not enough content on the topic I think. My replacement has been sidebar which is nice because it a curated top 5 links a day. sidebar.i…
