> as if just because they have more experience THEY CAN I don't follow. Why wouldn't you believe that a senior engineer, that has been reviewing code for years, be any better at re…

Agreed. E-bikes have gotten my elderly relatives moving too. From essentially sedentary to active on a daily basis. Teens + other able bodied people are inactive for reasons unrela…

This is cute, but the real reason our teens are inactive & unsocial is because of awful zoning laws + exurban sprawl. It’s not realistically possible to meet your friends anywhere,…

I’ve (irregularly) donated to Zig, Janet, Blender, Godot, and Raylib. Outside of software, I have also donated to EFF (electronic frontier foundation).

If this was a strong signal for quality that many people started relying on… AI creators would just lie about it. The only ones benefiting from this are notbyai.fyi

I don't necessarily think this is a bad goal, but the term "vibe coder" is almost certainly considered derogatory now.

I think it’s more likely that Kagi users value relevant search results & accurate information.

> Note that there have been rumours about Discord preparing to go public That’s disappointing, but even now it’s hard to imagine they’re particularly profitable. The core functiona…

We all know this is just the starting point & they'll inevitably raise the price without good reason. However, this is genuinely what I had been asking for; none of the youtube mus…

This is mostly my experience, except that I DO know the problems. I don’t get to define the deadlines, that’s up to someone in a department entirely unrelated to engineering. There…

The prison-industrial complex in the United States encourages this. While less than 10% of prisoners are in “for-profit” prisons, there’s a large industry of private companies beyo…

Unfortunately this is largely not the case in North America, there is no reliable public transit outside of urban areas.

Social binge-drinking is the norm. Amongst my peers, I’d define this as drinking to the point of severe drunkenness on a roughly biweekly basis. I think it’s genuinely frightening …

Interestingly, I've tried KDE multiple times on different devices & each time there's a Wifi issue that's not present in any other linux desktop. Even the steam deck's default stea…

I'm happy to see that this usage of Godot has continued. I've been interested in using Godot for application development since I saw their official "Apps & Tools - 2022 Showreel"[1…

(Clearly not North America)

If they actually cared about public safety, they would pursue legislation to require analog controls & eliminate touchscreens in vehicles.

There’s not much to talk about here. Of course you won’t improve when a third party is producing your code. That being said, I’m interested to see what happens to LLM effectiveness…

Allowing users to re-prioritize search results directly harms their true product: ads

I’ve been a happy Kagi customer for probably 2 years(?) now. Highlights for me, as a professional: - I can blacklist low-value domains (such as geeksforgeeks) that dominate the top…

More embarrassing than the size itself is that it is supposedly required to change the mode of the toothbrush. I truly do not think this should be allowed, but I’m not sure how to …

I’m shocked; I was certain this would be different than blockchain.

Still falls pathetically short of what it should be.

I agree with the author, at least in my own creative experiences. However, it's more likely the case that 'creativity' is arrived at differently for everyone. I find memorization t…
