Maybe the bigger question is whether something like Product Hunt even needs to exist in the ecosystem. I think it had its place circa 2012–2014, but does it have any "real" users anymore? Or is it all founders and growth hackers t

Interesting! What's the best way to check it out? Via API?

This. COBOL is actually quite performant given what it has to deal with. To answer the OP’s question: when you have 2M lines of COBOL that processes thousands of medical records or financial transactions per second, is critically important

Phenomenal to have a new open source CAD kernel out there! I couldn’t tell from the article if this supports export to common formats like STEP. But if so (or once that’s possible) it should be a great foundation for some of the open source

Right, but brand is not a "Short-term moat."

The author misses one of the biggest and most obvious moats: brand. Even if food science AIs create a better cola and have an army of robots manufacture it, Coca Cola will still have an advantage (as long as it’s still humans doing the purc

I completely agree. In graphics programming, I love having it do things that are annoying but easy to verify (like setting up frame buffers in WebGL). I also ask it do more ambitious things like implementing an algorithm in shader code, and

They told the same exact yarn about Steve back in the day. I think both are probably exaggerated.

The point stands—we don't use the descendants of TUI word processors today. We essentially all use GUIs.

Gorgeous cases! And I love the breakdown of the process. Super inspiring work!

Personally I reject this false dichotomy. If you identify as an introvert or extrovert, ask yourself if the label is helping you move toward the person you want to be. If it’s not, then you can choose to drop the label.

I ran into some funkiness once I ssh’d into a FreeBSD box. The shell history was wonky, and goaccess wouldn’t launch at all, complaining about the terminal environment, which I’ve never seen. With that said, this looks like an awesome proje

I’m achieving very custom looks in SwiftUI. What exactly do you find punishing?

What a phenomenal waste of carbon. Arguing with stupid people is like trying to push the waves back out to sea. They will always be there. Give up!

Yeah, too much overthinking. The comic panels are great actually. The problem with specifying order can be solved pretty simply by adding one panel with the person as a baby. Or show a seed, then a small tree, then the tree fully grown, the

I think "indistinguishable" is a receding horizon. People are already good at picking out AI text, and AI video is even easier. Even if it looks 100% realistic on the surface, the content itself (writing, concept, etc) will have a

I have both machine-made and hand-knit sweaters. In general, I expect handmade clothes to be more expensive than machine-made, which kinda proves my point. I never said machine-made things had zero value. I said we will tend to devalue them

Yes, exactly. Marx had this right. Money is a way to trade time.

by turnsout 2y ago
Put another way, over time people devalue things which can be produced with minimal human effort. I suspect it's less about humanity's values, and more about the way money closely tracks "time" (specifically the duration

Interesting, and I love Static Site Generators (SSGs), but as soon as you introduce branching and logic to the page creation, you've effectively ruled out non-programmers. So I don't know how it will achieve the stated goal of &qu

He has "full body" shots in the actual store, but I agree—it would be great to see a clearer shot, maybe lower in the flow.

Wow, just incredible props for getting this over the finish line. As someone who has manufactured a purely mechanical product, I can't imagine the hassle dealing with factories on this. They absolutely hate doing anything they haven&#x

I once worked with a senior developer who had built out an Ember app, but then mentioned to me that he "didn't know Javascript." I was like… my dude, believe it or not, you are currently using Javascript.

That would require developers to learn CSS… sadly I think they just “learn Tailwind” now

I've been there! I recently released an app that has been 99% ready for sale for a full year, and the only way I got it over the finish line was to wake up every morning at 5am to get an hour or two of work in before my kid wakes up. :
