Just quickly back and forth? For how long in total? Would love to try this

Most likely just incompetence

Yesterday I asked both claude and gemini to downgrade a package on manjaro and both failed miserably I use these tools a lot and I would say they fail 50% of the time for my use ca…

This is my experience too, I can burn $20 on a big refactoring in a few hours no problem A lot of the time (when it works) I think its easily worth the money, but I would quickly b…

The inspector will be AI btw :) (and the year 203x..)

Its pretty clear at this point that people want this kind of control implemented, its in the ”zeitgeist”. I have not figured out why, but it does seem that people are more scared t…

Yeah me neither, I think the CSS being cool and hard to use was the real reason. People like being ”elite”, and tables were just dead simple. I am surprised people here still hold …

This would put anthropic in the business of minimizing the context to increase profits, same as Cursor and others who cheap out on context and try to RAG etc. Which would quickly m…

Yeah the amount of disrespect of developer time they show here is crazy. You could have made the billing api backwards compatible for 10 years, its a super small api, but instead t…

Seems like a good way to have a bunch of new products to also support

I also have my own vscode extension for luau debugging, still have not moved to the type system due to lack of any decent class typing But the debugger is so good, I dont know any …

From Software (souls games) Rockstar with the GTA series Valve, Blizzard?

Without the work of the author this bug would still not be fixed. So credit for that work (which seemed quite involved) would be fair and natural, no? I am surprised and a bit sad …

You still cant really teach it your code base, context window is too small, fine tuning doesnt really fit the use case, and this RAG stuff (retrieve limited context from embeddings…

Seems this is about people skills. Some people are weird and annoying and you have to find ways to thrive even with their presence, or move to another project as others are suggest…

I also have a custom domain on fastmail that seems to end up in the spam folder of people using outlook in an enterprise setting. Kind of unsettling. I have never had it happen in …

Yes I'm relieved to see what I consider a level headed response. I hope that I am right and we will of course see. I remember reading a quote from our "public health authority guy"…

I noticed yesterday for the first time that there is starting to be some discussion about the damage caused by the lockdowns. Before that I was amazed that no one was interested in…

Thank you! I cannot count the number of times I have had a CMake problem and had the usual inclination to try to understand the framework behind it, only to be stonewalled by the s…

I dont have much to add I’m afraid (feel free to downvote me) but I’m quite intrigued of the HN reaction to this thing. The smartest people in the world (kind of) are also just sca…

I'm a DO customer. I tried to figure out what running a windows server would cost on Azure once (since DO doesn't provide windows). I didn't manage to figure it out after like 20 m…

After failing with Heroku we migrated to using Dokku on DO. And yes it is more work to do it ourselves, I didn't want to do that but here we are :) It was not a lot of work, dokku …

I'm a customer on DO as a small business (mobile game). I wanted some linux servers that I have control over, and I wanted a managed database where someone does backups for me. I a…

I feel your pain, and I have a hard time processing the other comments here, I just really want to empty my terminal buffer, its really useful. In the game I’m building I have a qu…

I have rarely if ever ”confirmed” something in a config file. confirmFontSize = 12 ? Naming things is hard :)
