The call to action button says "Get Started for Free", while the pricing page lists $20/month. Clicking the get started button immediately wants me to sign up with github. Could you explain on the pricing page (or just to me)

I'm in the same boat as the person you're responding to. I really don't understand how to get anything helpful out of ChatGPT, or more than anything basic out of Claude. > I've found that if you treat it more like a c

Many say this, but not once have I ever had to do it. Lift the pump and wait for the attendant to approve. Then pay after.

I have spent the last couple of days playing with Copilot X Chat, to help me learn Ruby on Rails. I'd have thought that Rails would be something it would be competent with. My experience has been atrocious. It makes up gems and funct

I only found out about this benefit of iCloud+ a few days ago, thankfully a few days before my prior solution was due to renew for another 2 years at a vastly more expensive rate. Certainly easy to set up. DNS with CloudFlare and it was ab

Which popups are these? The only one I ever received was when I hit the limit on my iCloud account. Certainly not anywhere as bad as all the adverts in teh start menu on my Windows work machine.

This is exactly what I have been going through for the last year or two. I even changed jobs, finding a role that was supposed to be better. At a company that would allow my skills to improve, while having what I assumed would be a better

Unfortunately their store was closed thoughout most of 2021 due to COVID. I orded a Advantage 2 from the sole NZ distributor who do not honour that deal. Cost 500USD only to discover it was very uncomfortable for an "ergonomic"

I must be the only person on HN that dislikes my Kinesis Advantage 2. I bought one in 2021 after the ZSA Moonlander didnt quite meet my expectations. While the keywell idea is amazing, i found that the two halves of the keyboard weren&#x2

I had to have my mid 2015 rMBP battery & top case replaced by a premium service provider in New Zealand due to a bulging battery. Thankfully I still had a couple of weeks of AppleCare left as the bill came to over $1300NZD ($850 USD).
