Love this! It would be great if the PDF export worked better, it seems to just use the "Print > Save As PDF" functionality? I'd love to export everything to a nice PDF and then req…

Very nice! I really like the design of the whole product, very clean and simple. Out of curiosity, do you have a designer, or did you take inspiration from any other products (for …

In case it's helpful for anyone, I did a little write-up of my experience using Instant a couple months ago to hack together a simple weekend project: https://www.alexreichert.com/…

> "We need to know what 'done' looks like." Ugh, yes... I wish I had internalized this sooner!

Yeah, definitely. I know this is a somewhat controversial opinion, but I do think there's value in developing the muscle around "grinding it out". I think the tricky part (dependin…

Ooh I like that! I definitely feel that in some sense when I have a good streak of commits per day, where I don't want to break the streak. Or for workouts, it's suuuper motivating…

Does anyone have a good comparison of using Gleam vs Elixir in 2024 (i.e. the pros and cons of each)? I've only used Elixir, but definitely curious to tinker with Gleam...

Very interesting, I’ll look into it!

Thanks for the kind words! And yes, I’d love to productionize this… next time I have a free weekend ;)

Author here! Surprised to see this on the front page again (hello fellow pottery enthusiasts?), but figured this could be a good chance to address some of the comments from the rec…

I built something similar last year if you're interested! https://www.bktransit.com/

Shameless plug, but I just recently built my own little simple MTA app because I wanted to play around with Live Activities in Swift [0] to be able to display the next upcoming tra…

Nice! I did something similar a while back, but just for substack :) One example -- URL: https://newsletter.pragmaticengineer.com/p/zirp-software-eng... Sanitized output: https://s…

Looks cool! At a glance seems kinda similar to Leap AI [0] which I've been following for a bit now -- I'm curious how you guys differentiate from competitors? Is it mainly the "no-…

Yeah... DALLE is super annoying about this now. I had the same problem in my little "AI trailers" toy project [0], and it can usually be fixed by just checking for that specific "c…

This is a toy project I've been hacking on, and it's a bit rough around the edges, but I'd love for people to try it out! https://aitrailers.xyz Some examples of videos people have…

I hacked this together because I wanted a way to embed a chat widget on my website and respond from my Discord server without having to sign up for anything or use a new product (e…

This might be a slightly more difficult question to answer, but instead of people listing the podcasts they like, I'd love to hear which podcast episodes in particular people would…

Hey HN! This is a little personal project I've been hacking on for the past ~week, somewhat inspired by this blog post [0] ("My Wonderful HTML Email Workflow"). Basically I just wa…
