My perspective on this, as someone skeptical of (but also bullish on) AI, is complex and I haven't completely nailed it down. My knee-jerk reaction is instant credibility loss for the business/person/thing. Follow-on is sadne

Ah, I've witnessed a US-based company try to fire someone it had hired in the UK and was surprised that it wasn't like firing someone in an at-will state in the US.

Appreciate the insight. I'm really quite curious about the inverse of this from the US. HNers who don't live in the US but have worked for a US company trying to do business in local markets: what weird US-centric idiosyncrasies h

"You're absolutely right, that wasn't a military target—it was actually a girls school. It won't happen again!" I realize that's not a great argument and was definitely tongue-in-cheek, but given there's s

Bingo. My wife brought them to my attention recently because she heard about them from Scott Galloway, who was speaking highly of Bending Spoons on one of his podcasts. As she was explaining this to me, I said "It's just PE."

Agree on the animation. As an aside, I've seen folks mention respecting reduced animation hints and such in the past and was always curious about this because I've never had any negative experiences with animations... until now! S

I don't get car sick looking at a screen in a car, but my daughter very quickly does. Excited to set this up for her to see if it helps her, especially with our annual US Independence Day car trip coming up. Can this same idea be extra

Curious for folks who have made the switch I’m considering: if I swapped Claude Code to DeepSeek API pricing, would I get more bang for my buck compared to the $100 Max plan I’m using now? I only hit the 5 hour limit every few days and the

I would shell out cash right now for something like Opus on silicon, like what Taalas [0] has built for Llama 3.1. Having lightning-speed, local inference of a super high-quality model would be incredible. If you haven't played with it

Nice. Yeah, I was checking it out while drinking my coffee and thought I'd share the impact of the experience, because I'm sure you'd like folks to hang around and check it out more!

Nit on the page itself: let me use my back button after opening an icon instead of having to reach up for the close button. When I hit back and get returned here when I wanted to check out other icons made me not go back to check out others

Very similar thing this week, and an interesting story to go along with it! I called my normal HVAC company for my rental home because the tenant reported the AC wasn't cooling the house. When I called, I got one of the latest AI voice

It is. I don’t have opened up to the wide internet, but it’s still super convenient to have it on my tailnet, which all my other devices are on, so I can review and manage repos wherever I am, while operating with the privacy of a self-host

I won't over-generalize here, because maybe your statement is true in some cases, but I will provide a counterpoint: this is not true (in my experience) in real estate title insurance and escrow services. I've consulted for and le

I just listened to a fascinating podcast episode of Armchair Expert on pain psychology that went into such topics [0]. May not be some folks’ cup of tea, but I was sucked in and want to study more. [0] https://armchairexpertpod.c

This is so cool. Also, it sounds like a cheeky plot to a zombie apocalypse or global contagion movie. How subtle are the flavors? Unsubtle enough that an oblivious taster might ask, "Does this bread taste like grapes to anyone else her
