Ah, welp! Egg on my face; I'll be less charitable with this sort of thing in the future. Thanks for doing the digging. Unfortunately HN doesn't let you retract submissions, otherwise I would.

I noticed that, too, but I thought perhaps the write-up was simply "LLM-assisted". I came across this while debugging the "Malformed anchor records, not an array" log message on iOS 18.6.2 and seeing weird behavior: some

My dad headed up the redesign effort on the Lockheed Martin side to remove the foam PAL ramps (where the chunk of foam that broke off and hit the orbiter came from) from the external tank, as part of return-to-flight after the Columbia disa

In theory I'm the perfect audience for the Framework 16! The only thing holding me back is the lack of a 4K display. It's so good for dense text on the screen (e.g., code with lots of split buffers), I can't go back. Still wa

Well, the same functionality used to be bundled into rye before the switch to uv. I appreciate having one less dependency to declare again.

Of course, the "http-equiv" means that this tag is supposed to stand in for an equivalent HTTP header, so you could accomplish the same by sending a "Refresh: 60" header :)

Like I said, unfortunately I'm not able to ground this in any kind of existing scientific research or provide a biological explanation! I can only self-report and relay the experiences of others that I know to be factual. It's a s

Women are generally better at perceiving and distinguishing colors and smells, according to the studies we have. Anecdotally, my sense of smell has gone from dull to vibrant over the course of my (MtF) transition, and I have a friend who no

All of these points are made in the article, nearly verbatim.

This seems like a recipe for disaster, since the inferred 3D views aren't necessarily representative of the actual product.

Yeah, you can walk the AST of your types at runtime and do arbitrary things with it. For example, we're using ArkTypes as our single source of truth for our data and deriving database schemas from them. This becomes very nice because A

I agree with B but disagree with A. Allowing dropping tiles outside of the word boundaries lets you arrange your "workspace" for thinking, like placing multiple candidate letters next to the spot where they might appear in the wor

Pretty certain! I inspected the board closely, and tested after reassembly to make sure it couldn't hear me anymore. That Nest Mini lives with its mute-switch permanently engaged anyway, just as a fallback.

Funny, OpenAI is one site where I've noticed that the login is kinda wonky. Every so often it just randomly fails, gets stuck, gets caught in a redirect loop... That may not be Ory's fault, but unfortunately this may not be the ri
