This is a super obscure wish but I'd love this phone to death if it boosted the speaker and stayed with the single camera and instead had a caseless lens mounting interface.

I don't know about Windows, but on macOS you can. If you wanted to try yourself you could use SingleFile to export a webpage as a .html zip file which you could then just 'open' in…

Super interesting! I feel like people will make the wrong comparison with the cost to complete. $165000 should be compared to not the cost of a programmer going line by line by han…

I assume most people are aware there will be some blue voters. I also assume that greater than 50% of the population are more socially minded than not as if it was otherwise, in th…

While I find your frequent use of 'it turns out' to remind me of https://jsomers.net/blog/it-turns-out .. I do think there may be supportive logic to be had. A lot of software prev…

There has been for a long time. It used to be called Wineskin — Sikarugir is the successor to that project. There's also Porting Kit which helps setting up and installing the wrapp…

I think this essay illustrates pretty well the value in indulging an experience not just for the sake of it but to try and truly know it emotionally.. and perhaps also given some o…

If I understand you correctly, there is a cool video on youtube that shows off a concept AE86 EV conversion that matches the driving experience of the original. https://www.youtube…

Ahh, I see now the angle you were coming at it from, my wrong!

It feels like the problem here comes from the reluctance to utilize a negative sum outcome for rejection. Instead of introducing accidental perverse incentives, if rejected your st…

I think there's value in the homepage placing these things less prominently, while making more prominent the other things we want the culture here to be about - despite those thing…

In theory I like the idea of prediction markets but how they are done right now makes a bunch of markets too insecure to put much stock into or informationally unvaluable to inform…

This part of the situation is the interesting thing to me. Is this US administration establishing itself as the effective dictator of Venezuela indefinitely? What does running that…

The question to ask when tracking to optimize reoccurring bills for home and grocery is if there is even any room you can give anyways. You'd probably find the easy end actionable …

With numbers like this, it feels like OpenAI is selling at this point the value of an IPO if everyone consolidates around OpenAI more than on the competitive value of its product. …

I know, it's lame. Over that amount of time Apple with the help of third party developers could have walked much of useful distance we now are trying to run to with LLMs for contro…

Personally, I think the trade offs for more window space is worth it versus window positioned app menu bars. If you really are trying to maximally optimize menu bar navigation you …

There is actually one in the house, but I'm not in a situation where I can install one in a specific room or upgrade the in/out flow in that room.

> It's surprising how quickly a room with a closed door and one person can go from ~ambient CO2 levels to 1000ppm+. Yeah, having seen myself how quickly it happens i've recently be…

This has been how I've framed a lot of the expenditure despite lack of immediate substantial new revenues. Everyone including Google is driven to protecting current revenues from p…

>Do people not have an understanding of fundamental Software Engineering principles from OGs like Parnas/Liskov/etc.? I believe this hints at a major culprit contributing towards t…

It felt like the headset hardware had reached a sweet spot for the moment, but with this announcement the software situation is now also going to be reaching a similar place. Now w…
