As someone who is getting into character art again after a very long time, this tool looks amazing. I've bookmarked it, and after I use it for a few references, I'll likely end up getting pro.

He said in the comments on the post that he valued the parts, units, and his time at about 100 bucks, and put them up for 150, which no one would pay. This was back in 2022ish.

As others have pointed out, this should have been a showHN, but the article is vague enough that it wouldn't have garnered attention as a showHN. Furthermore, the post inflates the problems of design handoff to try and sell a no code e

> Games worth their salt are not created by bolting together a collection of numerical statistics. That is how you get cookie clicker. I agree wholeheartedly with the sentiment of the article, but cookie clicker IS a game worth its salt.

I really enjoy Arc's approach to the browser interface, but I am kind of shocked that it requires firebase at all. It touts privacy, but we have to log in, and our data is being stored in a BAAS owned by Google. It would have been SO m

Ohhhh I like this. I really enjoy the flyctl CLI tools from Fly.io, which simplifies in a similar manner, but it's platform specific. Good work

I'm most interested in the AI interior design. Is it using products that are available? Can we set budgets for the designs? Seems like a product in and of itself in that one feature.

I’m losing my love for the web because it’s boring, not because of how it’s built. I am also guilty of this and contribute to the problem at my day job, but taking a limitless method of creation and churning out business apps and marketing

I recently started manually typing out everything I jot down in my pocket notebooks when I fill them in my Digital Garden. The amount of ideas I forgot about within a week or so is crazy. Glad I can revisit some of this now

My story is similar to yours except I'm a little younger. My game comes out this summer. I'll definitely grab your demo, and I just want to say you should be really proud of this accomplishment.

Holy HN interaction. You have kids? Look beyond your logic for a second. You’re saying “oh man, it really isn’t a big deal to upload videos of your children that strangers can beat their meat to, because they aren’t being actively raped.” R

There have been quite a few cases where content creators who have made their entire niche their children disabled downloading and follower counts dropped drastically. It may not harm my child directly, but I’d rather avoid making my kids so

No, meaning that any predator can save a video of my child for viewing any time they like. I don’t mean they’ll be preyed on, I mean they’ll be viewed outside of the context I wanted my children viewed in. It’s not always “oh look at this c

Thanks man, I appreciate that reminder. It’s honestly the same in web dev. Lots of people building “the next unicorn” with no experience or anything. I always have to remember that social media and the content posted there is nearly always

I posted a short clip of my son dancing on Tik tok. It went viral very unexpectedly (I don’t make content about my personal life). With over 1 million views, I was riding high on that dopamine hit. However, someone reached out to me about t

This article couldn't have come at a more perfect time. I slogged through myriads of tutorials for unreal and unity. I watched dev logs where people seemed to effortlessly build their ideal worlds and then go viral for it on youtube. A

I'm sorry this is off topic, but I love the homepage design. Have too many rPIs to justify buying this, but something about a nice, light, internet blue, simplistic design really makes me happy. Too many sites with their dark mode BS t

This is really neat. I don't have much trouble deploying a Netlify function, but I like the idea of being able to schedule your cloud functions like Chron jobs. I might just use this for a future project.

Hey sorry, just now seeing this. I worked at a small web shop out of college. A lot of respect among team members and friendly environment. Just not enough money in that org to support the employees like my current org.
