I find myself adding a !g bang when searching for products in the Netherlands, only to find out that the Google product results are NOT better than Kagi's

I mean, Orion exists (on Mac at least, although I heard there's a Linux version now?). Might not have its own engine built from the ground up, but WebKit is pretty much the next be…

I've tried this with information dense podcasts, reading the transcript while listening. That works really well for me, but I hadn't considered doing the same with books. Honestly …

Oooh, this made it click for me. Thank you

This is ignoring a lot of variables, the most obvious of which is that crime rates for people in economically disadvantaged positions are unsurprisingly higher. I was going to expl…

Yep, the memory in the ChatGPT macOS app is also starting to piss me off. I think developers generally dislike ‘hidden’ state, which is what memory essentially becomes.

afaik autocomplete is still included

> besides 1-2 days a year, when my mental faculties are lowered and I decide to _fix it_ God this is so recognizable, it's truly at my lowest moments that I decide I need a new ter…

Great book, too. Got me to finally delete my Instagram account :)

Sounds like a title you’d read on the satirical version of HN in a TV show like Silicon Valley

Not that surprising if the reason you have virtually unlimited compute and programming resources is that you work at the leading short form video app company. They could also have …

I cannot fathom why you'd pay $750 for Plex when Jellyfin is free.

For that specific use case you could also try `yazi`[0], which is a TUI file browser that has image (and other filetypes) preview built in. [0] https://github.com/sxyazi/yazi

Even worse than a rubber ducky: the O.MG cable does the same thing, but looks like a regular USB cable. Their Apple Lightning-dupe [0] is my favorite. The creator was on Darknet Di…

> I'd already been programming for like 10 years when I started this job The first 6-12 months after university are largely about 'learning how to work'. I'd say getting that out o…

Congrats on joining Terry Davis [0] in the probably small club of people who wrote a flight simulator in their own programming language! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CYQEfLaR4Pg…

My favorite (read: what makes me want to send the website's owner a glitter bomb/GDPR data request, whichever's worse) is when they have a chat window that plays an audible notific…

Oh this is super cool! Funny enough that just a few minutes ago I gave GPT-5.5 in the Copilot CLI an image of the floor plan of my balcony and asked it to come up with a zig-zag pa…

If LLM's were a mature product then this would be true at some point. However, you could argue (and I will) that the popularization of on-device LLM inference will lead to two thin…

I get them more on Zen (Gecko-engined) than I did on Arc (Chromium-engined). I came across this blog post about user-agent discrimination by the Vivaldi team on HN this week: https…

Unrelated to the contents, but WOW your blog styling is gorgeous. Incredible

Oh I LOVE this, we can't have enough of these privacy-focused non-profits making tech companies' lives difficult. They have such a strong argument here, too. I can imagine that who…
