It honestly varies by game, but in my experience "Playable" is usually a great to okay experience but has small text, a launcher you need to use a touch screen for, or maybe only p…

Absolutely. This project is super cool!! I'll likely use this to send a postcard to some friends. Such a cool little website to start and it feels so indie!

More proof that "if you're not paying, you're the product" doesn't hold up. Companies will put an ad anywhere the market will tolerate it.

I think this is where something like the reAct framework would be super helpful. A human dungeon master doesn't pull a random enemy from the aether super well (or at least I don't!…

I believe they're referring to the bailout YC (and others) were asking for- going so far as to arrange a petition last night.

That seems like the short term future of the profession, at least with a certain class of problems.

I just tried this out and it's basically exactly what I want! No frills, basic feature set. Was going to make something myself but now I can be even lazier than normal.

This is FANTASTIC! There's a ton of naysayers here, but I'm going through songs and having a great time with this. It seems most forms of EDM work great with this setup! One funny …

I spent a few days working on using ChatGPT to write code. I've been meaning to write a blogpost about my experience, but here's my synopsis. Where ChatGPT was best was when I want…

Wow, incredible. You can't make this stuff up.

Sound is a lot higher fidelity, it's harder to make the information available to a computer without serious downsampling or simplification. Consider sounds over 12khz. On a spectro…

Thank goodness. It's nice to see action here.

How many other toddler-safe devices are useful substitutes for stress relief or entertainment? Now how many toddler-safe alternatives to a knife are there for dicing vegetables?

In addition to the points brought up by other commenters, have you had vegan pizza or hot dogs? Vegan hotdogs are honestly fine and good enough. Thinking back to when I ate meat, I…

Nice. Maybe PayPal will be able to close the account I've been unable to close for the past seven years (!!!) that they've still been emailing me about, despite contacting support …

I'd actually quite like these. I have fairly poor manual dexterity (I struggle to use a spoon sometimes!) due to tremors. Chopsticks are really, really hard to use for me, and "tra…

Yeah, it's not like I ever saw a heterosexual married couple when I was 4-7. That'd be traumatic.

You warm up a piece of metal and pour water on it. The water keeps it cool and makes steam.

> Ship an entire physical PC to the user pre-loaded with the application? A phone (hi iOS), a video game console, a smart appliance, etc. are examples of this. Building cross platf…

Hey, first impressions- this looks great! I work in the space and know that HN can be quite rough for sms marketing tools. Couple quick questions: How do you handle offer "stalenes…

100% agreed! My first thoughts when I saw DALL-E were, "Wow, I can't wait to matte paint with this!" A texture here, something robot like here, some technical or magical doodads th…

Raising tiered rates enough, intuitively, is effectively the same as a cap. Yes, it's absurd to think about charging ex. $50k a gallon for gallons over 10k, but that's basically a …

I ended up doing this for our python codebases at work. The AST module was super handy as you'd expect. The script would optionally take some filters to reduce the size of the gene…

+1 to Sceptre TVs! Recently (past week) bought a 4k Sceptre TV and it was less than $200. 60hz, looks great, the smartest feature it has is a clock you have to set yourself. Just m…

I think my heuristic is Magic: the Gathering card artwork. Can DALL-E make set defining breathtaking high res promo art, with fantastic composition, style and proportion? Maybe, bu…
