Any startup that has enough money to casually buy a two-letter domain name has too much money, period. Kind of like counting the number of Aeron chairs at startups of old. Not a good sign.

2 minutes is the worst delay. With 10 minutes, I can and do context switch to something else and use the time productively. With 2 min, I wait and get frustrated and bored.

"Anthropic’s latest AI model spent 30 hours running by itself to code a chat app akin to Slack or Teams. It spat out about 11,000 lines of code, according to Anthropic, and it only stopped running when it had completed the task."

One of the highest priorities for the HN algorithm is to promote good interactions and discourage bad interactions. The logic is if you have a lot of people bickering with each other, regardless of the topic, it normalizes bad behavior. HN

Very cool - does anyone know of an OSX equivalent? Preferably one that is similarly able to understand and interact with web page elements, in addition to app elements and system elements.

Headless is a constraint you added as a developer for yourself - it's definitely not a thing the users will care about. Ghost is a great, simple, batteries included non-headless CMS for things like you describe. Self-hosted or as a ser

Might be good for the home page to say something about what it is, beyond just showing a map with dots. Cool kids who are in the know are generally a smaller population than one might hope when launching a site.

More than anything, Microsoft is incompetent at messaging and communications. This is a feature that has been among the most loved aspects of its main competitor for more than a decade. Somehow, Microsoft managed to make the same feature so

Data centers use evaporative cooling. Data centers don't just heat up the water and return it - they evaporate the water into the atmosphere (yes, I know, the H2O still exists, but it's in a far less usable form when it's gas

Lots of thought went into this. It would be very helpful to see examples of the various workflows and documents. Perhaps a short video of the system in use?

The most incredible thing is someone thought it was a good idea to write an engineering blog post about a team who so screwed up the spec for a simple static website that they needed 20 engineers and exotic tech to build it. It can be ok to

To the people who say "GitHub for public projects, gitea (or whatever) for private projects," can I ask why? If you're using GitHub for your public projects, why not just use GitHub period? Genuine question here.
