Personally, I look at prompt engineering the same way I see "software engineering" and think it's a bit of a mockery of the trend. Other industries have proper certifications for "engineering" that I.T. absolutely d

100% happens. I usually just make something up, but if it happens consistently, people know.

I just set a autoforwarder in gmail for the time being, and then updated the important services as they came through.

I'll never forget the night that I was crying for some reason or another, and my Dad came in and said I was nothing like himself or my big brother, and was more akin to my depressed alcoholic mother (obviously he didn't say this,

Google, unless Reddit upgraded their search. I can't find stuff on Reddit without Google, and I can't find quality reviews and (lesser quality) opinions on Google without reddit.

I half regret going for a fully specced Macbook Pro M1 instead of a Studio. Today I could get an m2 double the ram and ssd spec studio, and just trade off the portability (which really only applies to the screen). I don't use the keybo

Sigh... came straight off the weekend, onto my work pc, and clicked an ipfs link. Got a message from the cybersecurity team being like, "pls don't do that". Thanks HN. Pretty cool though, interested in how IPFS develops in th

Unrelated, but you've followed me from Ozbargain!!! I don't have the same name, but you do!

Very nice. We have a very primitive tool for this at the moment, might look at moving to this.

I was more talking about their search. It was fine, but it wasn't worth the money for me. The browser didn't really pique my interest on release but I wouldn't expect it to be great on release (they're still a small comp

The image one was what I had in mind as well. Looks like they've updated the documentation with code snippets to help people out a little more, but back when I first did it, those docs were SLIM

Unfortunately I stopped using Kagi just due to it not being worth the money for me personally. But look at the company using bearblog.dev, that's awesome. bearblog.dev remains one of my favorite services I've found through HackerN

This is why I'm bear-ish on Next.JS as a framework. Vercel has some super cool features for Next.Js that are easy to integrate into your app, but is that de-incentivizing Next.JS to implement them in an open way? Vercel is a hyper for-

Man, I know my work PC has 1000 things slowing it down, but that tweet took 5 seconds to load for me. Death by 100 loading spinners.

This is just fear mongering by news.com.au, pretty well not respected by anyone who's media savvy in Australia. We are due for a housing crash, but the media has been saying it for the last 10 years, and the government keeps propping i

Thanks! I'll give this a shot. I wonder if it properly parses into real HTML or it's just div's all the way down.

I'd be interested in how people parse text off a PDF. I'm making a TTS tool to convert documents (mainly HTML docs at the moment) to speech, PDF's would be a great addition.

Yep, this is my theory as well. The viewer isn't being advertised to by third parties, they're being advertised to by the owner of the platform. If they can get people hooked on gambling, they'll make just as much money as ad

I was trying to find some info about an issue I was seeing on ESLINT the other day... and they told me to join their discord, I couldn't believe it. No, I'm not going to join the discord for a javascript linter.

If you take "Modern" in the same vein as "Modern Art", then yes, I guess you could say it's "The Modern Way to write Typescript".

Woah! I saw this on HN a while back, but forgot to bookmark it and lost it. I recognized the name instantly, glad to find it again, and will make sure to save for a weekend where I hate myself sufficiently to dive into this massive document

I'm building an app at the moment, and I'm thinking to myself, "do people really want another subscription, or would they be happier buying credits or something". It's a really tough question to answer, but I'

I'm really hoping Proton Bridge is actually "1000x" faster, because the time it takes to fetch 5 emails into thunderbird is actually wild at the moment.

I was just about to start standardizing logging on one of my apps deployed with Fly.io so perfect timing. The monitoring tool is OK, but pushing it to a proper logging tool that I can query will be much more helpful in the future.

I moved to Melbourne, AUS for a year last year (moved back at the start of this year). My purpose was clear, find people to hang out with, and build a more social life. I succeeded. It was all with the help of Meetup, just hanging out at ba

Unless you're wanting people to save the images on the landing page, please optimize the images. WebP and only as big as they need to be rendered. If I go to a service designed around images and it's taking 5 seconds on a SOLID fi

Yup, Everything is a godsend. It also makes it more likely for me to download a portable exe instead of a full install because I can quick search for the exe, where as windows search struggles.

The main sass implementation is in dart https://github.com/sass/dart-sass , which I think is dumb because it's a fair amount slower than the old libsass written in C. The reason they spouted was due to "Low de

I try my best to use tailwind JUST as a utility library, and really utilize the @apply postcss function. I don't want 1000 classes in my HTML, I want to make re-usable classes filled with the tailwind styles from it's utility clas
