    Certain smartwatches offer a "pebble mode" feature like the Xiaomi band 9, you can get a keyring case for it and just attach it like that. I don't think it has automatic switching …

    A fan chiming in. I'm really happy someone someone is tackling this and it's looking good. One thing: can we get a demo instance just for initial snooping? A screenshot or two is f…

    Whoop targets a pretty solid demographic of people who seem to want an auxillary training coach (the app tells you when to go to sleep) and don't want a typical smartwatch experien…

    I'm not sure how I feel about the take on "disappearing pillars". I think that knowledge and expertise in the different "pillars" the author describes has become easier to access, …

    The market for TODO list apps is 1 for every person in the world, everyone has a slightly different subjectivity and therefore has a slightly different optimal experience when it c…

    Both the work done here and the quality of explanation, as well as the thoughtful challenges to the reader, are top notch. Thank you for sharing.

    The difference here might be the rather huge gap between putting together a solid "blog post" and a solid "paper" on a subject. I agree these "types" of essays are difficult to cha…

    The abstract mentions the patients cholesterol level is 1000mg/dL which is at least 4 times more than the "highly dangerous" bracket. Evidence seems to show that xanthelasma (the n…

    For what it's worth, I have a bookmarklet with these contents: data:text/html, type here... I use this _all_ the time for very quick note taking and writing that will later be copi…

    Do I understand correctly you chat wıth Claude as a form of social relief or are you talking about drinking beer and chatting with it about work/ideation etc. Either way, just curi…

    I could not disagree more, but I am obviously open to it being a personal preference. I've spent months updating JavaScript codebases that are between 3 and 5 years old, most of th…

    I believe that Claude has been running JavaScript code for itself for a bit now[1]. I could have sworn it also runs Python code, but I cannot find any post concretely describing it…

    Looks like the website is built with Laravel[1] using Livewire[2] (Alpine JS on the front-end) and the UI library used is Flux[3]. [1]: https://laravel.com/ [2]: https://livewire.l…

    It was fairly random, someone in my network had mentioned that Max was looking for people to take part in the project and I reached out. I was given a date and time slot and that w…

    I'm not sure anyone tried to actually use it as a passport photo. Would have been a great touch though.

    Oh! Something I took a part in on HN. That's a first. Almost everything there was practical. Highly recommend checking out all of Max's work, beaming with creativity.
