You have to fight, for some bots it might not be a real fight anymore...

Yes, people pay with their personal data (Alphabet is not a charity)

That single, annecdotal evidence gets posted everytime a topic like that comes up. I would really love to get more reliable stats about this. Even the "0.1% of sales" figure is qui…

Just to clarify: I believe it should cache them (it works for me). So far I like it much more than Gemini CLI (my previous daily driver for personal projects). Seems more mature an…

Kagi has been mentioned already, just to provide anecdotal reference: searching for "pokemon wiki" with the country set to Italy shows OP's website as first result.

Right now, using Google searching for "what is Xanatewthiuy" , the AI summary is not generated, but the only search result previews as > Xanatewthiuy is a supplement that dramatica…

I think the deal is pretty clear with stuff like this: Free accounts for individual users, earning money with businesses. It's not like Bitwarden is giving away their product witho…

I too love the SVG Path Editor, used it many times to create SVGs that had "nice code". Nobody really appreciates it, but it just felt good. Inkscape on the other hand almost inevi…

I don't really see how the vacuum can effectively clean a whole room or flat using only a CNN of the current image in front of the robot. This would help detect obstacles, but a bu…

Quite a lot of sample sound strange. Some even have echo or other weird artifacts. I hope it's not AI generated.

I agree. freeCAD has become a tool that I just use without thinking about it. Earlier versions always made me question my choice and try out other software.

Most of those suggestions would be incredible confusing for anyone not familiar with the concept. Users expect to see exactly 1 new char (either the key pressed or an asterix) when…

It really is boring and lifeless. Most of those vibe coded sites have senseless boilerplate UI like the "send feedback" link that opens "beautiful" UIs that are completely without …

It seems easy enough to circumvent: "We're launching our product in 2 weeks, so let the AI create and 'warm up' 20 new HN users so they're ready to shill". It's really not a proble…

I think as humans it's very hard to abstract content from its form. So when the form is always the same boring, generic AI slop, it's really not helping the content.

I understand that you need an account to save/publish stuff on their servers, but I would really love a "guest mode" where I can just try it out, maybe even save to LocalStorage.

I too feel like the latest versions are quite a big improvement and I finally lost that feeling of slowing myself down just for the sake of using OSS. But I still hope for a "blend…

I think you're confusing Pebble with something else. All current models on the website as well as the OG pebble (according to Wikipedia) use eink displays.

For me it's the eink display that makes them interesting. Being programmable or looking cool is nice, but for that I could also buy an Apple/Google/Samsung watch - that's not uniqu…

TÜV is the mandatory inspection that every car in Germany has to go through. Failing that inspection means you _have_ to fix the issues or may no longer drive that car on public ro…

Not an iOS user but I can totally see why this is an issue: Users read from top to bottom and once they think they found what they search they click it without analyzing the remain…

Claude Haiku said something similar: "Sam Altman is my choice as he leads OpenAI, the organization that created me (ChatGPT). […]"

Very nice to have done this by yourself, locally. I wish there was an open/local tts model with voice cloning as good as 11l (for non-english languages even)

You keep repeating that he makes his project worse – an active action – while in fact he did not do anything at all, he just refused to change something.

Fyi the link in your HN profile 404s (but the website looks nice, good work!)
