Another one I've been seeing more often is a missing unsub link and instead a "Manage Email Preferences" link. Which of course you click and then have to go through a number of hoops to log in, confirm Email address, authenti

1000%. I have been running claude's work through codex for about a week now and it's insane the number of mistakes it catches. Not really sure why I've been doing this, just interesting to watch I guess. Not to mention a bill

Slightly off topic, but I've been making some shorts content recently breaking down some of the fundamental problems with WordPress when compared to modern dev practices. It's been funny to read them: "you just don't kno

Ok, I thought I was going insane. The last two larger coding tasks I gave Claude Code it left about 35% of my request completely undone or done sloppily. I because of this, the next task I gave it on the larger side, I ran its work through

Yea pretty similar idea to a polygraph test which for years was called a "lie detector." In reality, they measure a bunch of things that may indicate lying, but they are just as likely to indicate that a person is nervous or react

Traditional archery. I started a few years back and have been doing it off and on since. It's challenging but a lot of fun. I shoot a lot of older style "recurve" bows, but the main style I shoot are horsebows, that is, bows

What's always kinda funny to me are people who freak out about a salary like this and then shrug their shoulders at an average NBA player making in the ballpark of $10 mil.

I ping pong back and forth between claude code and codex. In my experience (very subjective, obviously) for backend/"logical" tasks Codex seems to outperform Claude. For front-end/UX related tasks Claude wins easily. Ove

I cannot remember the exact quote, but I thought Norm Macdonald nailed this idea a while back. He said something to the effect of: it's easy for a smart person to pretend they're dumb, but it's impossible for a dumb person to

I don't know why, but equating how many tabs a person has open to how much of a power user they are sounds like something right out of a south park episode.

This hit the nail on the head. I find much of the HN community insightful and interesting, but in terms of consumer feedback (especially in a B2C environment) I wouldn't touch feedback here with a 10-foot pole. I don't mean that t

Turns out if you use brave on iOS it auto-blocks all the ads too.

I don't think the tech is the problem in this, it's the market. If so much as a toenail gets made with an AI engine a pretty large swath of the gaming community surrounding it throws a toddler stompy fit on reddit. Even if the gam

For a while after I graduated I remember joking that school is basically prison for kids and I finally did my time. Forced to be there against your will. Short, momentary glances at sunlight. Cafeteria food. Solitary confinement (detention)

You can not like the statement, and call it whatever you like, however, it is objectively true. You are far more likely to find a government regulation on a US business/product than you are to find any EU-based product used widely in t

What you're seeing here is why the US has such a massive amount of leverage over the EU. The US has for some time fostered an environment where people build and grow businesses. I've started many myself, some totally for fun. And

This is a great question and the answer varies some depending on what you're selling, but here is what has always worked the best for me: 1. Offer free, tangible value in some form (articles, videos, tools, resources, etc) 2. Do number

That is what I'm talking about, finally someone is asking the real questions.

I think this is true, however, when it comes to non-coding clients I've worked with they really do like the ability to make minor edits to a site with a UI rather than having to continually ping a developer. The problem with WordPress

I've actually been thinking about this recently. Every dating app is incentivized to be corrupt in some way, and just not just in the storing/selling data. What many people don't realize is that for many people, they don&#x27

RIP all the people who have been paying Github for years and never happen to see the notice.

I was thinking the same thing. I actually agree with most of the complaints people have made about the corners, but it seems so small compared with literally every interaction I have with Windows. As someone who works on Windows, Mac, and L

Many people like to focus on the purely physical attributes, but there's a clear distinction even in realms like chess. The highest ranked female chess player is right around #55 globally, wherein the top 50 all are dominated by men. S

Kinda a wild idea I had never really considered, but absolutely a possibility: using a TV as a loss leader to sell ads. Not sure if that's they're intent here, but I could easily see that becoming a thing (if it isn't already
