Many of us who care about the environment have hated the widely-held anti-nuclear stances. It's a very clean source of energy. Renewables ended up being the focus because they had to be. There was no chance of pushing nuclear forward w

Manual memory management is not a reason Zig couldn't have supported sum types for error returns. You don't need an allocator involved at all to return a discriminated union like Rust uses. I actually find Zig quite a pleasant lan

Errors are where I find zig severely lacking. They can't carry context. Like if you're parsing a JSON file and it fails, you can know that it failed but not where it failed within the file. Their solution in the standard library f

For a DAW running in exclusive mode, wouldn't they also have the option of setting the system default output to a virtual device that inputs into the DAW? That seems to me like it would be the most sensible way to handle mixing in YouT

Yes we should expect better from an AI that has a knowledge base much larger than any individual and which can very quickly find and consume documentation. I also expect them to not get stuck trying the same thing they've already been

I tried this as well. I'm interfacing with Gemini 2.5 using Cursor and I have rules to to limit the comments. It still ends up over-commenting.

It's not just a touch issue. Desktop environments have toast notifications and dialogs that can pop up unexpectedly (neither of which are remotely new problems). You can be trying to click something at the corner of your screen and hav

I think shame fails to work when people can broadcast online a version of events that makes them look like the victim and get tons of people backing them up.

I like that the author included the chat logs. I know there's a lot of times where people can't share them because they'd expose too much info, but I really think it's important when people make big claims about what the

Is price the only negative about them? I know the sentiment around Gandi here is negative, but the one time I needed to handle a domain issue recently they were super quick on the support. The problem was even my fault for messing up the ID

Doesn't even have to be something obscure. I asked one about Futurama a couple years ago and got a made up answer on multiple models I tested. I think I originally asked something about the line "we're exactly the same. I kno

Hopefully they don't start pushing this change to older products. I don't want to have to replace my NAS, but if I ever do, it certainly won't be with another Synology product, even if they walk this decision back.

I feel the same about their maps. I pay for Kagi for search primarily and assistant secondarily. I'm fine getting my maps from a different source. Not every service needs to be an "everything app".

by ziml77 2y ago
Are they really going to need more than a couple people working the weekend to pause/rollback if something goes wrong? It's not like Assistant itself is new, just the broader access is.

A dishwasher with a built in water softener fixes the problem. But really a whole home water softener is a good idea if your water is super hard.

It only shows what people are buying, not what they want to buy. Cheap crap might sell a ton because it's cheap and listed at the top of the search results. Which then feeds into it being kept at the top of the search results. A lot of

HN doesn't hate humor in general. Many of us just know what happens if you don't downvote away the easy jokes: all comment sections become more comedy than discussion. It's just too easy to make joke comments compared to the

I looked at their plans a few years back and it was very clear that they had 3 payment options: Monthly, Annual, and Annual billed Monthly. Of course if you get the third option, getting out of the contract is going to cost you. Otherwise w

Microsoft has a history of trying to avoid breaking older software with new Windows releases. To do that, they definitely do need account for how people are actually coding things in their software rather than just what they've documen
