Unpopular because the difference between FSD and writing is obvious to more people than not, especially people who read for pleasure. Being a person with an actual POV matters more…

Someone on Twitter suggested ISO 24495-1, in case ASD-STE100 is a bit too sparse.

Surprised to find no mention of "load-bearing" and "gated" particularly for Claude. In particular Opus 5 is scaling new heights of incomprehensibility with excessive metaphor-makin…

Most of this piece reads like the Claude output I have to read after every prompt, cleaned up with an /elegant-writing skill or something. I'm so used to skimming text in this voic…

On the Mac App Store page [1], I can see the settings panel in a screenshot. In General Settings / Onboarding, there is a toggle switch labelled: "Show onboarding on first launch",…

It's a fair assumption being a known potential cause of death. Of course I'm now assuming death is bad.

Edible forms of cannabis raise heart rate and blood pressure substantially as well.

That's also my experience. It's absolutely a letting go rather than a doing; one of Michael Taft's analogies for it is "dropping the ball". The provisional techniques are great bec…

Yes this would be one “provisional” method among many, maybe hundreds of techniques but they all seem to lead to the same place as one gets familiar. In Buddhist Vajrayana schools …

Meditation teacher Michael Taft recommends "dropping into awake awareness" whenever you're waiting for a response. [1] It's the opposite of watching YouTube, pretty much. [1] https…

It would potentially be more business-optimal to ship fewer bugs if everyone else is shipping more bugs. Your development cycle would be costlier, but users would prefer to buy you…

The elegance of the code is not superfluous at all. It correlates with the developer's understanding of both the code and the domain. Many kinds of software cannot be yeeted 10x fa…

Here in India, when I was growing up it was normal to sleep without a cover in the summer (no ACs back then, only ceiling fans and perhaps an evaporation cooler in more luxurious c…

The weather in North India has been very weird this year. Normally it's pleasant in March and starts warming up in April all the way to end June. This year it got June-hot in April…

That's the temperature at the weather station in shade . The air temperature is higher in the sun in busy marketplaces from high surface temperature of tarred roads and the thermal…

Thanks, from the git log I see it was committed 20 minutes before my comment. I was going by the HN title and description and missed those comments.

I think you're conflating the burden of creation with the burden of relevance, suitability, usability and usefulness of the created artifact. The more the person in charge is disen…

For some reason the app supports a separate standalone window mode as well [0]. It's not clear why the developer took the trouble to support two different modes when the menubar mo…

Thanks, I misread entirely.

Ah, I misread. Thanks.

Legitimate complaint on HN of all places. TODO apps shouldn't be embedding whole browsers.
