Oof, was just replying to the comment above and didn’t check the age. There’s no silver bullet, unfortunately

Would be nice if there were a hn feature, userscript, or plugin to just filter comments from new accounts. Bonus if there was some sentiment analysis or llm-based analysis to filte…

no affiliation, just want to say exe.dev is amazing! They got all the primitives right and it’s changed the way I approach starting new projects.

Random naive thought, could I use this to backup and version all of my user data? E.g. just point Lore at my ~/Documents folder and call it a day? I'm sure there's some scalability…

Thanks for the level-headed response. Agreed, "blame the kings" is also an overly simplistic take. There's rarely a single entity to blame. Just wanted to bring some nuance to the …

This is a pretty uncharitable perspective. Most folks I know working at Meta or Amazon aren’t morally bankrupt. They just have kids, debt, poor parents with health problems, etc. T…

This misses the point that parent was making. The conversation shouldn’t be “move your data to countries you can trust”. It should be “use protocols that don’t require trust in the…

I’ve had the same thought and would love this. MacOS shortcuts are too deeply ingrained in my fingers. But every attempt of mine to make Linux shortcuts Mac-like has had too many s…

It’s kind of wild to read through these comments and realize hn is still riffing on the same ideas. Is it e2ee? Does it run on Linux? Who would pay for something you can slap toget…

Regardless of the intent, it was poorly executed and highlights security gaps inherent in the distribution model of browser extensions.

Agreed. Times are tough. Open source is under-appreciated. People are going to crack and slip up like this. We’re only human.

I did webdev for a long time, so yeah. If you want the story, I was looking into guix on asahi and ended up on https://www.asahi-guix.org/ which didn’t load anything, so I checked …

Noticed a suspicious element called give-freely-root-bcjindcccaagfpapjjmafapmmgkkhgoa in the chrome inspector today. Turns out about a month ago, the popular open source [JSON Form…

Good points. What local models have you found work best for your use cases? I feel like if we get to opus 4.6 level intelligence running on local hardware, we’re in the clear for a…

Definitely interested! I've reinstalled Fedora Asahi Remix several times on my old M1 after fiddling my way into a broken state. NixOS sounds like a tinkerer's dream but getting st…

Thanks for sharing. Much better source.

> If the pen tester doing a security evaluation judges that a bug is easier to find and exploit if the source code is public, then, sharing the source code lowers your score Good o…

This is smart and a good first step. Everyone can't be trusted to do the security dance flawlessly, though. We need sane defaults. Least privilege by default for 3rd-party code. De…

Totally agree with all of your comment. To solve for structured data instead of everyone writing parsers, I’ve enjoyed using nushell (not affiliated, just love the idea). https://w…

Huh? Zed's vim emulator is one of the best I've used in an IDE. Saying it's an afterthought feels disingenuous. I'm pretty sure some of the core zed devs are big vim enthusiasts.

I'd never heard of this effect before but it reminds me of a feature I've aways wanted for ios which is, in order to unlock your phone, you need to type in what you're planning to …

Is there an SRS app or Anki feature that takes into account your reaction time when answering a card? I've wanted to use Anki for things like speeding up mental arithmetic but Anki…

Does the local underscore variables feature solve this? Or the approach outlined in the plots tutorial? IMO, not allowing redeclaration is more valuable than supporting this use ca…
