They're making the typical journalism mistake of trying to use prose for what would be better expressed in a chart. This is a pretty common issue with journalists who can write but…

This is very cool, just some UX tips to make it more legible: 1. remove ~50% of the UI since it covers too much of a laptop screen 2. improve the camera controls so its easier to p…

Fwiw what you are describing is literally survivorship bias.

The ubiquitous availability of smartphones also limits kids freedom. It creates a very particular style of interaction with peers where quitting means you are left out. That means …

Another detail worth mentioning via Taniwha [1] was Supermac had an engineer on set and configured the graphics cards to run the monitors at 24hz so they wouldn't have any banding …

The Helm is great. I'm not sure it really solves the wrists problem, at least for me since for how I use it the height of the laptop makes a huge difference in ergonomics. The MacB…

Context: measuring productivity at all is hard. It was hard when computers were introduced into the workplace, when the internet was introduced, etc. I worked with a journalist who…

Funny, I always try to lead with context when handing off product/design work, but I've often experienced devs saying 'please just tell me what to do'. No such issue with AI coding…

Yep, I was surprised to learn that too.

Was just looking at this. What keeps me from buying is the screen is just too small. I'd love to slap this magnetically on the back of my iPhone and have it on the go as a focused …

Can we all band together and agree to flag articles that are so obviously AI written to be engagement bait and devoid of anything meaningful to discuss? To use an AI-ism: HN isn't …

Just want to say I appreciate the effort that you put into this. I know HN sometimes doesn't vote up the big posts but if they're well researched and follow a thought through to a …
