Ever since this change they announced: https://www.reddit.com/r/ClaudeAI/comments/1s4idaq/update_on... It’s been unusable for me as my daily coding agent. I run out of credits in the pro account in an ho

Interesting way to waste energy. What about having agents compete at finding exploits? Or maybe picking an open source project and have agents compete at fixing bugs for it? Or just something more… useful. Seems like the current games are a

Ha! Nice April Fools joke. Nothing will succeed WordPress. Not even AGI. Specially not something with the name EmDash. Good one Cloudflare.

Garbage software that is slow as a dog has been winning. While we’ve been obsessing over our craft and arguing about what makes software beautiful, slow crappy software has taken over the world. Quality of code is just not that important of

Yes! We tried leaving tech unregulated and it did not work. We got huge monopolies screwing consumers at every turn. Time to try something new.

Oh yeah, no you are right. Sorry for focusing on that little part of space and time where I and everyone I know and love is alive and being affected by our decisions. How dumb of me!

And I’m shocked that anyone into tech can be so blind to the adverse effects the current tech industry is having on our world and our society. We owe it to the world, as the experts, to be critical. The march of automation and technology ha

AI is starting to look like a net negative for humanity. I remember the early days of OpenAI. I was super excited about it. There was a new space to uncover and learn about. I was hopeful. Now I have this love/hate relationship with it

Thanks, I am known for bold predictions. I also predict the US and Iran war will end.

I hope you are right. I’ve been in this industry 20 years… the passionate developer or small team with the awesome software wins a few times, but 99% of the time it’s the shitty software with a great marketing and sales team that wins.

My prediction is that OpenClaw will eventually die. But it has provided a small glimpse of the future.The way the average consumers interact with computers will drastically change. I can envision someone sitting in a park bench with a small

I agree with you. Personally I hate it. I was trying to figure out the specs of this laptop because my sister asked me if she should buy it. I had to do a lot of clicking. But this site got my sister excited about buying the laptop. The stu

I get your preferences, and I am tempted to agree with you because there is a lot to hate about Apple. But… this website is an ad. It’s not a product spec sheet. It’s not meant for you. It’s meant for people who don’t know a lot about compu

Ah yes, taste. That thing that is definitely NOT subjective, and NOT influenced by cultural norms and personal preferences rather than universal standards. Yes you are right, guess you guys do have better “web taste”. Why would anyone prefe

But do they really suck to use so badly? Like for real? The examples that have been listed in the comments (Apple and Claude sites) look totally fine to me. People here are talking about them like they are the worse websites ever.

Why do web animations get so much hate with the HN crowd? I think a website is similar to a painting. Some will make you dizzy by just looking at them, and others will be a minimalist dream. Don’t hate me HN, but I say keep messing with the

Some advice: Drop the login for now. You’ll get more initial feedback that way. Add it back later if you get some traction. Show some examples. You know the saying pictures speak louder than words. Show a few examples of how this looks on t

My favorite part of programming is thinking about the whole system before I write a single line of code. How will my data be structured? What does the UI look like? How do I structure the project? What tools do I use? What do I need to take

Most software engineers were not “crafting” before AI. They were writing sloppy code for the sake of profit, getting a pay check, and going home. Which is why AI also outputs the same crappy code. Rumor has it there were a few elite crafter

How does one go about deployment and backups with a local db? Like let’s say I have a web app hosted on a cloud service like App Engine or Elastic… if I redeploy my web app how do I make sure my current local db does not get get wiped? How

Im sure it was more like, “hey babe, can I get a few millions to go in the studio and experiment/make some art?” And then she was like, “yeah go for it! Make some weird shit.” If I was in his position I’d probably be doing the same. Wh

This is probably just pure stupidity, but part of me hopes there is some tech person in there who knew exactly what they were doing. I’d take a job as a tech person in this administration just to sabotage stuff like this.

My main use of HTMX is to hack the Django Admin here and there. It works great for that. I’ve tried to use it in a moderately complex app and it became such a mess so quickly. I’m sticking with React for frontend stuff for now. Works well e

Come on dude, you are on HN. You probably know that social media is no longer about free speech. It’s a targeted advertising machine that is extremely effective on kids and teenagers. It preys on them so, so efficiently. It’s a technical wo

I’ve tried Celery/Procrastinate/Chancy and others in the past. Nothing has really felt “right.” So I always end up using GCPs cloud task jobs and scheduling. It’s just so simple for small to mid size projects. Really want to give

I’ve been using the same test since Dalle 2. No model has passed it yet. However, I don’t think 2D animators should feel too safe about their jobs. While these models are bad at creating sprite sheets in one go, there are ways you can use t

Before starting new projects I would always do research like this and try new things. But I’ve stopped looking at what is out there. I have landed on Django/React(vite). I have mastered this and can go from idea to app running in produ
