    I'm not knocking your project, but ghostty doesn't flicker for me on resize. Is this a common problem people have? My main complaint with ghostty is the crappy configuration.

    Yes, and mac has various filters under accessibility for various types of colorblindness. I alternate between basically all of them at different times because none work for me in a…

    Thanks for the recommendation. I tried it out as a colorblind person. I'm always looking for one of two things -- tools that will help me differentiate stuff I see on graphs and ch…

    As much as I love just about everything about Sando, he doesn’t hold a candle to Mark Twain. I think this is a recency bias in effect. But damn, Sanderson writes some great stories…

    What a dumb take. Apple is the most wildly successful company in the market. You think whatever pittance they get from this will outweigh the cost of stolen ip?

    Basically nothing. I mean they’ll have to pay up but money clearly isn’t something OpenAI worries about. They’ll just raise more from the infinite vc money tree.

    It’s interesting to me that people thought/think this was a good effect. I saw t2 in the theaters when it was released and I thought this was the phoniest effect of the movie. It w…

    I use it on my 15 pro max. It's a major improvement, but I still don't use siri much. It's gone from murderously infuriating to passably usable. I still use gpt for any sort of exp…

    Steam needs a statistic for Wine/crossover. I play tons of games on my mac via steam through crossover. It's crazy that multiple layers of translation work so well.

    Anybody have an idea of what the flops per token generated is on a SOTA model like current GPT/OPUS? Is it basically the parameter count? So something like GLM-5.2 is, at a minimum…

    yeah, spacex's planned million satellite datacenter-in-space constellation doesn't seem as absurd.

    I used it a few times. It's weird. It reminded me of Christopher Walken with all the oddly placed pauses.

    The thing with language models is they are tailor made to fool managerial types into thinking it’s the holy grail. Just like many managers, the appearance of productivity is all th…

    I know this is a topic de jour for submitters lately, but it seems weird for hacker news, a website for and by founders who primarily offer software-as-a-service. I also think it s…

    The shelf-life of a day is because of the abstract voting aspect. Old crappy forums used comments, vs an abstract notion, as a vote. This allowed for long running conversations. It…
