It's safe to say they're both highly watched in PNG, Origin is just more of an event (a three game series, compared to the NRL which is a full season + playoffs). It's the same two sides every game, you're maroon or you&

Random PNG fun facts: their most watched sporting event is State of Origin, a rugby league competition between two Australian states, over which many people have died in PNG. Australia recently allowed them a team in the NRL, its premier ru

Given Doom is capitalised in the title but the rest of the title isn't in title case, not at all, it's a sensible way for your brain to read it.

People don't say when they vibe code things but it's still very obvious.

Learned anything interesting game-wise in watching the StS bot learn? Is Silent/Watcher just a matter of going through all the training again?

Please, yes. Half of the fun of being on HN was "Show HN: I made some random thing", which typically amounts to "look at what prompt I wrote" nowadays. I use agents every day, I'm not against it, but it completely c

If you're going to spend tokens on the RE for this, it would've been nice to spend some tokens documenting it or making it easier to navigate

You're right, of course, but you're on a website of a VC firm.

I use Gboard with the network permission disabled. It works well but I hope they have a better stock keyboard, I haven't found any others that don't annoy me in one way or another.

It's not "us" that matters, assuming that means very on-the-pulse power user types. We're a tiny fraction of users. Over 99% of users have probably never even spared a thought for the ToS.

Would be great if it could get included in Flathub, without it, I'd rather have an AppImage than a Flatpak file I think

The thing is, people liked old Twitter and then it got taken away from them with all of the changes to X, so there's merit in a clone of what was. Many such cases, WoW Classic's popularity as a random example.

I'll take the bait, what makes Bluesky a bad copycat? It's just old Twitter. I can't for the life of me see what makes it "seriously bad", it has a pretty large userbase, it's seemingly got a decent number of n

If I thought this would happen I would've done something else with my life. There's still some fun to be had, and I'll probably stay in the industry because it pays well and I have history here, but the magic has largely died

Really didn't see programming going the way of blacksmithing in my lifetime, let alone early in my lifetime.

As opposed to what, neglecting the human experience to grind yourself to the bone for those who own capital, and then voting to uphold that capital? Makes no sense.

That's not really what I think of when I think of taste in software development. I think of taste more in the sense of how to go about architecting something, what problems are worth solving, what technologies should be used, how to st

I'm not gonna say where we're at now is better, but as someone who has never had any interest in webdev, the perpetual JavaScript frameworks baffled me. How could they still be interesting and how was there not one that was good e
