My key indicator is if I scroll right on mobile and see horizontal bleed over. For some reason models still fail at this so it's clearly vibe coded.

I started using Zed as a half measure. I think I'll start using AI for planning and suggested implementation steps. I am seeing non technical people getting involved building apps with Claude. After the Openclaw and other Agentic obses

The US relationship with China is fascinating. My entire life it has both been an economic boogeyman, the nation nipping at our heels, and yet also the manufacturing engine powering everything out companies were creating. Ignoring the one s

I know a number of people who grew up in extreme poverty who are extremely well reasoned here and others who are extremely spoiled and fortunate who would gladly enter into a holy war. I don't think you can quite generalize that much.

As an American I feel like I've been going through a bit of an identity crisis from what I remember growing up. Probably the rose tinted glasses of being a child but being from Florida I always had a sense of amazement and wonder as I

Hmm... Interestingly one does not look at the solutions to de-escalate conflict. Despite the proxy wars we've had a relatively peaceful world since WW1/WW2. Please humor me here, I'm not saying the world is horror free. The e

I'd imagine one day there will be a limiting factor of cash to burn as well.

Not really true for modern cloud architectures. If you have an appropriately tuned Observability stack you're probably pretty familiar with the logs.

So curiously I wonder if it's not that Anthropic/Claude can do this magically. More like can individuals at IBM who are heavy hitters just leave and create their own company and effectively provide these services because AI gives

To be fair the author shows an example of using NixOS. It's absolutely another layer of indirection (probably several) but it does make that usual Linux "fun" less problematic because of its immutable nature and API design.

Is anyone else unable to read the report on mobile? Completely broken styling for me.

This was a super interesting article for me as I'm working on a prototype software aiming to promote spaced repetition and some newer wave learning science as a common approach to "leveling up" in an age where AI is pushing t

I ran my own home router and I used Kea and Power DNS using Systemd Containers to provide service for my whole home. I was really impressed. I think the folks who put it together did a good job of addressing the major warts of my experience

Why are there so many people making code editors? It seems like we've hit a veritable Cambrian explosion of editors and I don't understand what market signals are being picked up where people find the editors insufficient.

Interesting. I am a native of Florida and happen to have a really horrendous backyard for mosquitoes. I've had county officials out to examine the area and can't find sources of water causing them. I'd like to know how to emp

They didn't hire people to control labor. They were enabled to hire people for R&D because it gave them a tax loophole. https://www.techspot.com/news/108230-how-little-known-tax-ch... And it was removed so tec

Remember non-devs are affected just as much by this "new world". Perhaps even worse because they don't understand what's going on.

I wouldn't buy a joystick if you're into Flight sims. I'd look into a Hotas setup or a virtual reality setup where the whole cockpit is simulated (VTOL VR). I started out on Microsoft Flight Simulator back in 99-2000. I feel

Honestly though that paragraph does have meaning to it. Simstim is a thing. Is it a quite adventurous description of it? You may not "fully" get the description at times. However I never read it and went "This is garbage.&quo

Honestly the comments so far don't line up with my experience. Possibly for the very experienced devs/games on HN who are making their own mods Nexus was limiting and annoying. For me it was the level of difficulty just low enough

Been using readwise. I quite like it. I'll gladly pay the price if it means preventing encrapification down the road. It does everything that I liked out of Pocket and Omnivore. It also has a neat sync feature where all my notes/h

You've sold me. Braid is now on my list to experiment with.
