I too have noticed variability and it's impossible to know for sure but late one Friday or Saturday night (PST) it seemed to be brilliant, several iterations in a row. Some of my best output has been in very short windows.

I feel this too. I swear some of the coding Claude Code does on weekends is superior to the weekdays. It just has these eureka moments every now and then.

I just had some issue with RLS/schema/postgres stuff. Gemini 2.5 Pro swung and missed, and talked a lot with little code, Claude Sonnet 4 solved. O1 Pro Solved. It's definitely random which of these models can solve various

Last night I suddenly got noticeably better performance in Claude Code. Like it one shotted something I'd never seen before and took multiple steps over 10 minutes. I wonder if I was on a test branch? It seems to be continuing this

I see o3 (high) + gpt-4.1 at 82.7% -- the highest on the benchmark currently.

For small personal projects, coolify (featured recently here on HN) lets you quickly stand up postgres with SSL, etc. and get a connection string in seconds. You can deploy in the same project or expose pg to the world like neon does. One

Since you use both supabase and neon, any particular strength or weakness to keep supabase for prod? I just moved my app to neon today (easy enough to test it!) and am enjoying the auto-scaling features and UI is great on neon. But I&#x27

I installed coolify on a VM (was featured here last week) and it had a one-click Meilisearch docker install. I sent 1,000,000 records to it "just worked" on a little $8/mo Hetzner instance.

+1 for claude code being amazing, and especially +1 for the cost. I've spent $500 this week, $.10 - $1 at a time, fixing bugs and adding features. It took a while to get used to not @ tagging all of the files and realizing it just &q

There’s quite a bit of competition actually. I was going to rent one on a recent trip and there were about 20 cyber trucks available as low as $100 per day.

Ford is offering the home charger installation, or a $1000 public charging credit. I'm trying to shop for one of these trucks right now, and my sense is that the dealers are not a big fan of EVs and are almost actively working against

Reminds me of 1-800-MY-YAHOO. I remember hiking in a national park in the 90s and calling in from a pay phone and having my email read to me over the phone by a robot. I could record an audio response that was sent back as an attachment.

My son and I listen to DMR and P25 all the time, and we listened to a bunch of the samples of Codec2 vs AMBE. And while it might be a slight improvement, it doesn't move the needle enough to really excite. Perhaps a longer QSO would b

It uses the phone's battery, which is assumed to be something that is already managed.

All 3 models you ranked cannot get "how many r's are in strawberry?" correct. They all claim 2 r's unless you press them. With all the training data I'm surprised none of them fixed this yet.

Just got the v12 upgrade. I can now do door to door drives with zero interventions about half the time. Whereas before I had to take over at least once every drive, typically at intersections. Still a long way off from robotaxi but this ver

I just put 14.4 kW of solar up, one of the largest installs in my community. I put 25 or so kWh of battery capacity, also respectable. Problem is, there are plenty of days where my system only generates 10-20 kWh of energy. Which is not e

Problem is, slow chargers are not fast enough to attract customers, and fast chargers are about $100k (an expensive loss leader) + maintenance.

Phind released a new model I think about a week or two back and I added their VS code plug-in. I really like it because it makes using GPT 4 or their proprietary model much easier than copying and pasting between a browser and VS code. It i

If you guys are relatively close together in a similar geography, you may want to look into the amateur radio mesh network called AREDN.

Every Tesla from late 2014 onward. My May 2014 Tesla has no autopilot. That really hurt at first... buy a car for over $100k and it's obsolete a few months later when Autopilot and dual motor were announced.

Nice looking case! I got the OEM starlink travel case ($250) and was quite pleased with it. Even has backpack straps, though I'm not going far from the vehicle with starlink.

Agree. We've used it for two years with solid performance and reliability.

Definitely not region locked sports. My YT TV account is based on the other side of the country and I can't watch our local teams quite frequently. I've been using wireguard and a dedicated wifi network to tunnel through a fiber

I also have been using XFCE on Debian on my S23 and using it for VS Code and some dev work. It runs node and python just fine and is quick. It's nice because it is minimal. Having a 4K screen and only my phone and some peripherals

I have NEM 2.0 and 25 kWh of batteries. They'll be "paid for" in about 5 years because I load shift from $.81/kWh to $.15/kWh in summer. For example, during peak, my system will feed 100% of my solar back at the $

Basically, yes. The test filters out at least a subset of users who are not interested in the tech side. You can get a gmrs license without a test and those frequencies tend to have less decorum as a result.

I also did not have a "Select all" box but was able to check the first entry, scroll down, hold shift, and check the last box which then selected all items in between. So I removed all of 600 of my accounts in about 20 seconds.

At $2/kWh you’re making as much as $16-$20 per cycle so it is almost certainly worth it to the battery owner to use your battery for this vs. load shifting, etc.

Go look at a ruble dollar chart. Russia is making more money selling less gas.
