    After getting tired of Photoshop's magic wand failing on product photos, I built this color replacer with features most online tools don't have: • HSV tolerance (not RGB) - Catches…

    Show HN: 'Irrational' Tools – Perception-first color/image utilities

    Hey HN, I’ve been building a few color and image-related tools with a focus on ease of use, solid UI/UX, and correctness as a hobby project. What makes these different from other o…

    I liked the clean interface and on-point functionality, but I loved the loading performance! Several websites which I regularly use for doing JSON diff are extremely slow for large…

    Man. They way they market and sell 'average' stuff which won't even raise an eyebrow if it came from any other company is remarkable.

    I don't know where you see such a line in Onshape's ToS. Can you point me to it? IANAL (and speak only in an individual's capacity who is hopefully reading the same ToS), but the p…

    I'm sorry, as far as I know the leadership is pretty clear on that. For a foreseeable future CAM will remain a Pro only feature.

    Onshape employee here. I agree with another poster that for most "non-professional" requirements Onshape's free tier is all one should need - sure, the documents remain public if y…

    Sundar Pichai. That's what changed. He's one of the most uninspiring tech leaders of today who just wants to run an already established business with more and more ads with some AI…

    Then why are you using it? I tried using Gemini once on my Pixel 6. Couldn't play music on Youtube music on verbal instructions, I switched back to Google Assistant. Will try it ag…

    I do understand 3 * O(n) is just O(n), thanks. I was just clarifying my initial typo. However, it's still three/four times the iterations needed - and that matters in performance c…

    Yes, wrote quickly without thinking. Even if it doesn't change the complexity, it's still three or four times the operations.

    Oh yes, sorry I meant to write 3 * O(n) which though doesn't change the order is still three times the operations. The example I was remembering was doing filters 'inside' maps.

    Really? I mean it 'saves your time' by not having you to keep waiting so that you can do something else in that time. I don't know how that is not useful. Even if I'm not doing any…

    Yes, but of course, that takes more data without their compression and one eventually has to pay more for storage as expected, but at least that option is there.

    It's the built-in mac display that goes blank along with the external monitor. On my Intel 2019 MBP it was very slow (many seconds), on this new M3 it's much shorter but still more…

    Oh ... Where to begin. I can write an essay on it, but just to name a few: 1. There's a button on my M3 Mac keyboard that says 'delete'. It deletes stuff everywhere else, but welco…

    Wow, I thought I'm the only one as when asked in my Team no one agreed to facing these issues - but I faced it on multiple new Macbook Pros.
