>You need more and more, more extreme content. More polarization. This seems a little sensational. Many people (myself and most of my friends included) don't see _any_ "extreme" content or polarization. A quick scroll thro

With cloud gaming gaining in popularity at the same time asset detail/sizes are ballooning in size, it certainly feels like we're now ~1-2 generations away from games/experiences being so large most people won't bother i

Interesting side-note: there are only two *.ai domains on this entire list: 1. "tempo.ai", which doesn't actually resolve 2. "web.ai", an http-only site that looks kind of like a cross between a geocities website an

Hey all! I've been using Colab and AI models to generate images + names + descriptions for fictional creatures on NovelGens all year and I kept noticing the images weren't quite what I was looking for whenever I had "drake&qu

I haven't yet seen the typing light, so maybe my perspective might spawn some replies that could help. I understand that types are helpful, especially within the context of learning new code (both as a new dev, and more easily understa

I think good desktop apps are infinitely better than good web apps. However, I pretty much only build web apps. Here's some reasons why: * Getting pixel-perfect design is SO MUCH FASTER&EASIER on the web (and using web-first tech l

I know it's not meant for narrow results, but I still chuckled a bit when searching my own nick surfaced an entire serp with nothing but unrelated blog posts about being dyslexic. Wonder if it's just because "drusepth" s

I don't understand how this is a "feature". Is the price different, or the features gained different, or does it just determine who ends up getting what % cut? I can't imagine most people actually care whether Google or

The snarky answer is "literally all of them", but one real answer is that I've been pretty happy with GCP's status reporting for the past year-ish I've used them. I've only noticed a few incidents, but every ti

The "ping" solution is an interesting one that I haven't seen proposed before. At what rate would you do these pings? I don't know how upgrading/downgrading works at GitHub but if they do any sort of refund/cre

In my sphere (of ~90%/10% unity/unreal devs), a lot of Unreal's recent releases have been extremely tempting reasons to start migrating from Unity to getting more familiar with Unreal. They're inspiring and make a lot of

I would guess the general consensus is that you should change the law, but abide by it while it's still the law.

I'd never heard of Vanced before today. What features did they offer that YT Premium doesn't?

I couldn't even find my street to start from. I think it's safe to say I don't know my local area. (I'd probably play a version where you could customize the area radius, though! ...I'd probably still lose with a ra

One small feedback on squareword: it'd be very nice to do some word pruning a la Wordle to exclude rarer words that the average person is unlikely to know (or have any exposure to), like today's first row, 4th column, and 5th colu

Thanks for the explanation. HN is so notoriously US-centric at times that it didn't occur to me that these services offer the same perks from the other side of the pond.

Why is "data stored in the EU" a selling point? I've seen tons of similar analytics products pop up in the last year and have avoided them all for having out-of-country data storage (and usually less functionality, etc). With

It's difficult, but not impossible. I could reasonably prove to a court I've never been to Jupiter, or that I've never been President of the USA, etc. I can definitely think of situations where someone could likewise reasonab

Really, really happy they're enabling the edits endpoint as a free-to-use beta for now. In my experience, GPT-3 works really well but is pretty prohibitively expensive unless you're optimizing for profitable tasks. Offering even l

I've used it briefly in someone else's IDE (who swears by it) and it blew me away. It pretty much removed ever having to google syntax or snippets from SO in a language I wasn't totally familiar with (python).

AFAICT they were a loss-leader with some of the cheapest cloud storage prior to this update, and this brings them closer in price to AWS/Azure (although still slightly cheaper). I wouldn't expect price changes from other platforms

If you're on Windows: one habit I've developed is to always keep an unsaved notepad.exe open. When my cat hits the power button (not if), Windows will always stall and ask if I want to save the notepad first; at that point, you ca

I don't know if it's a joke. My wife switched to Android to keep her 3.5mm. I'd be willing to switch to iOS if I get a decent 3.5mm option to upgrade my Pixel 3a from, especially since it looks like the 6a won't have one

Thanks! Glad the details are helpful. There's a lot of optimizations to be made on my end, for sure. I isolate Sidekiq to a separate worker dyno (a shared Standard-2X dyno with 1GB RAM for $50/mo) and typically run just 1, but up
