Based on the comments here, are we really supposed to believe that the following actually happened? 1. The v0id_isgood HN user impersonated the actual creator of Wyzer and posted t…

Ironically, in synchronous conversations, the same co-worker is constantly going on about how swamped he is, and how he's being pulled in so many directions. Apparently, it takes a…

The useless suggestions are exhausting. One of my co-workers uses Claude for all asynchronous communication, including Slack messages, Jira comments, code reviews, and emails. Ever…

I'm building a family game server that will host web-based games on my local network (although I'm thinking about using something like Cloudflare Tunnel to make it available on the…

I like the idea of being able to specify the prompt, as a reminder of what you wanted to copy to the clipboard at that point. I've created a new issue for this (it's similar to an …

I'm certain everything Textile does could be handled by bash scripts, or any other script flavors / languages / tools. So, yes, Textile is supposed to be a more convenient way to d…

No, but this is a great suggestion. I imagine a flow that looks something like this: (1) When creating the textile, you would add a step to "wait for new clipboard data." (2) When …

I'm not too familiar with Espanso, but Textile is not a text expander. Textile allows you to pre-define a sequence of steps that dynamically generate the text you want, by running …

Thanks! Should be fixed.

Hi all, I'm excited to show off Textile, a desktop app I recently built. Textile can combine bits of text using various inputs, such as commands on your computer, the contents of y…

I'm reading The C Programming Language, 2nd edition (the K&R book), and working through all the exercises. It's a great book, although it's forcing me to admit that I need glasses …

"...fewer than 4,000 jobs, representing less than 5 percent of our total employee base." I cringe at this attempt to soften the numbers by saying "fewer than" and "less than" here.…

Location: Salt Lake City, UT Remote: Remote/Hybrid/On-Site Willing to relocate: To Arizona, Texas, or Florida for the right opportunity Technologies: TypeScript, React, Next.js, No…

Wow, the way Upwork is handling this seems really bad. They announced the layoffs today, but nobody will know who is being let go until next week! Sheesh.

Our first year on Vercel, the bill was $40,000. When our management went back to negotiate the second year, Vercel wanted $120,000! Vercel wasn't offering 3x the features, mind you…

Now do OpenAI...

I once had an external monitor with a maximum refresh rate of 30 Hz, and mouse movements were noticeably sluggish. It was part of a multi-monitor setup, so it was very obvious as I…

My wife and I canceled Netflix a while ago and went back to DVDs. An FYE store in our area recently had a store closing sale, so we bought three DVD players and snapped up all our …

I never actually type semicolons in my JavaScript / TypeScript. In work projects, my IDE adds them for me thanks to the linter. In personal projects, I just leave them out (I don't…

Under Secretary of War Emil Michael posted that there is no active negotiation with Anthropic: https://x.com/USWREMichael/status/2029754965778907493

The AOL version missed an opportunity: After connecting it should have said, "You've got mail!"

AI also makes you bored.

I'm seeing a 404 page. I assume this is unintentional, but it's making a funny point: How could AGI possibly be imminent and we still have 404 pages? Regardless, I agree with this …

We went from having new JavaScript frameworks every week to having new AI frameworks every week. I'm thinking I should build a HN clone that filters out all posts about AI topics..…

Wow, this is a new low I did not expect to see. "Just get high and you'll be able to code with an LLM." Preceded by, "I know it's terrible." I'm wholly unwilling to relinquish my h…
