For me it doesn't really compare: with Last.FM all I've gotta do is navigate to my profile and the song I'm _currently_ playing on Spotify is right at the top, I just click it and boom, I'm on the track's page. Besi

I love clicking on a random person's profile and seeing that they're actively using the account (as in, I can see they're currently listening to a specific song!) they've had for 20+ years. So cool.

For me last.fm's value lies in the community aspect: you can leave a comment on any artist, album, or individual track's page. There's not a single other place on the internet where I can go to to see what the people think of

It's not the effort or the lack thereof here that's the issue, but rather the message you're sending by using slop tools to create the design of the advertisement of your research. It looks cheap. I'm sure that, at first

Totally agree, the same fonts at the same pixel sizes often look massively different in different environments. I -love- macOS’ native font rendering, but have been unsuccessfull in emulating it on Linux :/

Why can you not enjoy both the journey and the destination? Surely you find some sub-disciplines of writing code more pleasant than others - can't you just keep doing those manually and offload/automate the rest to the machine?

Why is the comment calling out the biggest issue with this so heavily downvoted? Privacy is a massive concern with this.

You want the people that couldn’t create a competent TUI to make a messaging app?

… Or how hard it is to replace archaic software that’s extremely prevalent.

I agree, but surely your description is art in itself?

You're absolutely right -- that's the crux of the problem. There are no shortcuts, only future liabilities.

At a certain point I used some "windows 11 debloat script" and I haven't encountered a bit of Copilot or any other AI nonsense anywhere in Windows since.

That could be because Claude offers a dedicated /init command to generate a CLAUDE.md if it doesn't exist.

I automatically tune out any blue checkmark post or reply and just assume it's an LLM responding to earn $.003

Are you sure they don’t get sent to Apple as part of some telemetry / diagnostics implementation?

That's wishful thinking. The reality is that your iGPU will be used to decode the video stream of an Unreal game running on a dedicated GPU on some cloud server which you pay a monthly subscription fee for.

What’s interesting to me is that no matter how “hidden” the AD indicator may be, my brain always seems to very quickly train itself to swiftly skip such posts when scrolling/browsing. Or I could simply be another clueless victim of adv

We really are in the trenches. How is this garbage #1 on the front page of *HN* right now? Even if it was totally legitimate, the "landing page" (its design) and the headline ("Learning Zig is not just about adding a language

When’s the last time you used an extension of such kind? Sidebery for example doesn’t seem hacky at all to me.

I find that so incredibly unlikely. Granted I haven't been keeping up to date with the latest LLM developments - but has there even been any actual confirmation from OpenAI that these models have the ability to do such things in the ba

In this case yes because the website itself has a dark-mode toggle in the top right corner, and in its dark mode, the images are not visible.
