This post doesn't touch on something that makes parsers complicated no matter how simple the grammar: good error messages. Parsing a well formed input is the easy part, but not jus…

What is your position on middle of the road pain and suffering?

I have been using macOS for I think fewer than ten years and I think the attention of detail may always have been just about the hardware... macOs and iOS have presented me with so…

FWIW Claude sometimes identifies as DeepSeek when asked in Chinese: https://x.com/stevibe/status/2026227392076018101

More like living next to an ice cream truck car park

Please share more :)

Homebrew is also great in this regard

This is a cool idea. I know I'd rather see this comment on every model release than the pelican.

I don't even need today's frontier, give me a local model I can run on my Mac comparable to Claude 4.5 as of December last year and I'll probably lose any interest in new hosted LL…

The ingredients are: 1. Bun.Cron API to run a script every minute 2. Bun.$ (Bun Shell) to execute the macOS command to take a screenshot (I do this for all connected screens at tha…

I have a personal, fully offline and local version of Windows Recall basically, but good, made using macOS built-in OCR and LLM. The reasoning requirements are tiny (just interpret…

If you're on macOS you can try the built in LLM which I think is similar in size. There's a project called Apfel that wraps it in a CLI. Also Chrome ships with a web API called Pro…

I think Last.fm might have been a better friend finding and dating app than any of its contemporaries or anything that came after. Seems like everyone in this thread or anyone I kn…

I just keep repeating "operator" ad nauseam not stopping for anything other than the sound of the call transferring and that almost always works.

There is basically no support to speak of. Scaling a zero is not hard. You can be paying 200 USD a month with barely any chance of ever hearing back. Your best chance of getting su…

I googled this and I didn't even have to scroll the search results before I found an article about a perverted teacher abusing a teenager this way.

I stopped checking failure emails from GitHub Actions unless they happens half a dozen times or so a day because I get more false negatives (GitHub Actions issue not my workflow is…

IME young people mostly hate AI.

I asked it about designing a 12 V solar system for a garden shed and it got everything but the broadest of strokes wrong. It figured out there should be a solar panel, a solar char…

Which was very cool and accessible as a kid, I have fond memories of it.

I'd like to coin the term "user agent" for this

Decorative emojis in headings and lists help me skim documents faster than I'd otherwise be able to.

Same story here, I installed it and ran `gwc auth setup` only to find I needed to install a `gloud` CLI by hand. That led me to this link with install instructions: https://cloud.g…

Made me think of https://github.com/xoreaxeaxeax/movfuscator . Would be definitely cool to see it realized even if it would be incredibly impractical (probably).

In theory, comments on Hacker News should advance discussion and meet a certain quality bar lest they be downvoted to make room for the ones that meet the criteria. I am not sure i…
