Idea: Support providing it the URL to your own / arbitrary git repo, so you can see it type out whatever code you like :-)

If the AI could understand the save file format for Minecraft, it could manipulate that

Device-bound would be a nightmare. I don’t want to have to think about different credential for phone vs. laptop, etc.

I got steamos working on my nvidia PC with a bit of messing about. I really like it, it’s a fun experience and after this initial hack, everything has worked great. https://github.…

Is it a nightmare? I pasted the first, zoomed out, image of the shirt into ChatGPT, and it decoded it / let me know what the bash script does in one shot

Pretty bad. It seems to have very limited context, and it mostly cant follow up on things if you have additional things to ask. It was ~fine when it first came out, but seems to ha…

American football is unwatchable to me for that reason. It’s so stop-start. 30 seconds of play followed by 3 mins of ads. It’s just insane. Feels like the entire game was designed …

Andddd now everyone knows that an arbitrary text string in a device hostname is enough to ground a flight.

What if you deploy to a different CPU architecture than you develop with? Some languages/libraries use pre-compiled binaries as part of their packages.

I wonder if you could repurpose the cars SIM card (eSIM or otherwise) / cellular modem for your own use? Like presumably the manufacturer is paying a data plan to a cell provider. …

It was the Wild West back then. Good times!

Kinda related but I used to practice guitar in my dreams. If I had been learning something I’d often dream about playing it over and over again, and even going beyond that and figu…

Was thinking the same honestly. GH is very sticky though, especially when you have actions and all kinds of other integrations set up. But it’s just kind of absurd at this point ho…

Are there benchmarks of this / what’s the best way to compare it against paid models? With all the rate limiting in Claude/Copilot/etc, running locally is more and more appealing.

Do you use it with ollama? Or something else?

My personal Claude sub (Pro), I can burn through my limit in a couple of hours when using Opus. It's borderline unusable unless you're willing to pay for extended usage or artifici…

The problem is half the time you don't know you need the better model until the lesser model has made a massive mess. Then you have to do it again on the good model, wasting money.…

Agreed. What network are they forgetting here? Pretty sure I've only ever seen that apply to wifi. Are they trying to say you might need to re-pair a bluetooth speaker on a date? I…

Hey HN! I built ChaosDrive to simulate what happens when you corrupt a running game console's hardware. For some reason it's always been interesting to me how these old consoles gl…

Probably not. That would slow them down. The turbo button under-clocked CPUs :-)

“Like carfax but for your home” is a really interesting idea. So many homes are bought with little-to-no history beyond an inspection of questionable thoroughness. If this became t…

Easily one of the top 25 horse drawing sites of 2026

Same. I’ve had good results with read only accounts / tokens and let the agent have at it. Also works with terraform, aws cli, etc. One does not need a new/separate tool to do any …

This. It's a false economy if you value your time even slightly, pay for the extra tokens and use the premium models.
