Would be cool if you could adjust the sun's position & see the effect on shadows. Could even extend it to add a "night mode" too, though that'd require extensive retexturing.

Google you're a NA company, we say "aluminum". Also an OS built around an "AI core" sounds like a privacy nightmare.

> feels like a vibe-coded VSCode fork That's 100% what it is, and rushed at that. Competition is (generally) a good thing though, only time can tell which IDE comes out on top.

This isn't true, 6GHz uses 5.925 to 7.125.

Curious about how accessible these tests are in Europe. Living in a country (NL) that doesn't value annual checkups makes me assume detailed, preventative blood testing like this is hard, let alone possible to get in non-extreme situat

Their savory dishes aren't great (looking at you stamppot) but they do sweets well! Poffertjes, oliebollen, stroopwafels, etc.

Nice tool! Some feedback: - The subtitle telling me I can "stretch [my] time off from 20 days to 42 days" is quite misleading. This tool doesn't magically give me more vacation days. - Much of the page isn't helpful (in

Yep, I don't like it. Amplifies racist and ignorant voices.

By suggesting it's "mostly useful in the beginning" you are admitting that at some point they will copy+paste it to their project. So the convenience factor is a moot point. I see the value, I just think that's an unre

You think the chance that 5 people think $6 is a reasonable price is lower than one person thinking $30 is?

$30 is far too expensive for a GPT-4 wrapper. I'd much rather pay for ChatGPT, run Vite locally and prompt "You are a tailwind assistant that generates CSS..."

This is the key lesson. Your own deploys mean nothing if you link to another CDN for parts of your application. You handled it well OP, the silver lining of incidents like this is the grab bag of valuable takeaways!

You're mixing up a manually imposed punishment on companies vs exposure/impact, e.g. identity theft.

I'm not saying your observation is inaccurate, but as a society we _let_ these companies continue to do whatever they want without consequence. 1% of users in a data leak having their identities stolen or 1% of the cities in the world

How does this explain that it's a bad analogy? Both of these are true and can apply to both. Read up on the SSN leak from last week, I didn't give them my data. And it can have real consequences.

I don't like this take, companies use this same mentality to justify inaction with their impact on climate change. Who decides what a "severe" outcome is? The companies themselves? Why don't we hold them to a higher stan

Interesting concept, but in practice the experience is just a simplified Wikipedia hole. I enjoy all the hyperlinks in Wikipedia articles: they let me decide how deep I want to go rather than get a short summary with only a few pre-generate

Querying DOM nodes is inherently more complicated than a regex on unparsed HTML.

Seems the conceptual disconnect is them thinking it means a note being "out of the tune" as in incorrect/wrong, as opposed to the physical instrument itself.
