It looks good, but since the design is becoming so ubiquitous in the small personal projects space (elsewhere as well, but I think it is most noticeable here) it is also boring. I've vibecoded a few websites for my own use that look ve

The takeaway from this article should be to consider modifying your tools to your needs even in unconventional and controversial ways. I love it. The flame war on whether the original chassis design sucks or rocks is not that interesting.

Most corporations have Microsoft already greenlisted as a vendor. Making it possible to buy something from Anthropic might require tedious paperwork for many of them.

NordVPN claims to operate under Panama jurisdiction (but is otherwise still based in Europe). The specific reason why they want to operate under Panama law is that there's no mandatory data retention. So it seems misguided to claim tha

We really do need more new isometric grid based games. They are less realistic but it is _so_ satisfying to build in them. I've commented on it before: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39810716

My city semi-recently introduced a citywide parking system. They have hired plenty of inspectors and there is like 95% chance you will get a ticket if you don't pay for the parking. No one breaks the rules intentionally anymore.
