Funny enough I'm experiencing the opposite: I moved to Western Australia and find the police presence much lighter than Canada or America. Traffic stops by police are virtually nonexistent because speed cameras already do the work of

What steps do you recommend for IDing a weird bug or slug you find in the wild? Do you just upload a photo to chatgpt? What's the equivalent with iNaturalist?

I agree Alexa/Hey Google are generally great at following commands.. but lately I find myself most wanting to use voice primarily for getting quick answers to factual or opinion based questions. There the results are abysmal vs ChatGP

A lot of people forget that it was only recently that the Photos app on your iPhone could run OCR text search on pictures in your phone. Google had that feature on their phones many years before Apple.

Agree, Siri is a damaged brand. Microsoft had the insight to drop Cortana when it flopped too. In the age of LLMs I also increasingly view my experience with "Hey Google" and "Alexa... " with similar contempt. Their ou

Feel this pain so much. If you are debugging Github Action container builds, and each takes over ~40 minutes to build.. you can burn through a whole work day only testing six or seven changes. There has to be a better way. How has nobody

With widespread dependencies like AWS or Github, if they go down.. you benefit from everybody else also going down. Downtime of that kind means a lot of media coverage and an easier/more understanding conversation with your affected c

I'm interested in learning more about this. How would we go about adding a secret only available to runners on the main branch? Is there a configuration option on Github to create a secret only available to runners on main? Presumabl

This is a great idea, though I feel like if you guessed the country accurately the first time I would like it move on to another country. That or a button that lets me skip to new countries. I know where Australia and it's a bit tedi

We use PostgreSQL locally but moved our production database over to AWS Aurora. If I use `SET synchronous_commit = off;` in my Rails code will Aurora also mimic this behaviour?

Are you looking for sharp wit or to learn things? Has a huge influence on which subreddits to recommend.

Ditto Signal. In my local city some Burning Man regulars created a giant Signal group for sharing parties and events. Nearly a thousand members in the same city who post about something to do any night of the week. It's lovely. To

I know you put an explainer in there... but sorry, this looks like a phishing attack to get my HackerNews password.

I think this is true for images on posts , which I don't want to see. I was specifically referring to posts in the sense of comments. I want the ability to embed images in a comment.

Bluesky has some good content if you curate your feeds and algorithm (it's fully customisable). Also spend a lot of time on Twitter but I don't recommend it. Reddit can be okay if you choose the right niche subreddits -- stay awa

I used to think this way about Reddit, but they added embedded images to posts and it works great. There are many times on this website where people talk about seeing something cool but cannot attach or embed images describing what they ar

The only feature that would make Hacker News complete for me would be the ability to embed images or screenshots in posts. Otherwise I love it and it's the best place on the internet today.

Most political lobbying pertains to matters that are completely out of the radar of news media. In fact if the topic you're lobbying on is in the news you are probably failing. They tend to be intensely practical and specific, rather
