Really enjoyed this You're about 12 years older than me so the post was simultaneously nostalgic and a great insight into what work in our industry was like in the decade before I really got properly started professionally Thanks for s

I think about this a lot as someone living in the north of England (in a nice town and quite well off) maybe ignorance is bliss but I just don't know how life could get much better, but then I guess some Japanese person living a prospe

This is so great and such a great example of the sociolinguistic prestige given to certain types of words in English. It's so funny how all this is doing is naming things in almost exactly the same manner we did name them but using ger

I won second try with hares on medium, I think the trick is to: A) make sure you get at least one hare to one of the central two spots (will always be possible) and camp it there. Keep your other hare moving around on your side. B) the oppo

Utterly vapid comment. I'm not even going to bother "defending"the UK but if you like you can ask an LLM: "What do you think is the most important/relevant international city in the world?" Anyway, on the actua

A little startup I'm part of is on the AWS startup program giving us £10k in AWA credits so the more we can "proxy" through AWS the better. We already heavily rely on anthropic models via Bedrock but I'll be interested t

Is having massive sessions which sit idle for hours (or days) at a time considered unusual? That's a really, really common scenario for me. Two questions if you see this: 1) if this isn't best practice, what is the best way to pre

100% agree I just had exactly the same reaction. I love the idea and would definitely like to do the first part e.g. documenting key people (family members and other important relations etc), key events like weddings etc. What a lovely reso

Surely this is sophistry? It's obvious isn't it? An award has an element of consensus, we choose to make the Nobel prizes mean something by agreeing they mean something. I don't think it's controversial to say that they

Come on, you know exactly why: integrity. I really don't care about any of this but I don't see the need to play ignorant as to why many people might understandably find what she did distasteful.

It was really poorly written in hindsight. I didn't mean for it to come across as bitter/accusatory as it does and you don't deserve to read people talking random jabs at you when browsing HN comments, I'm sorry

> Americans don’t really have much of a concept of what European identity is, and we don’t really care Cool. Look, I made that comment with a lot of fondness, but if this is the case, maybe leave the European analysis to someone else..

As a Brit, I struggled to get much interesting out of this considering how many times he mentions "Europe" (in that condescendingly general way that only US folks seem to manage). He talks about "European" prospects and

Yeah I set out to build something with WebRTC rather than to build a planning poker app if that makes sense. Just wanted to test out the tech. Having said that, I do still use this off and on and personally the limitations don't bug me

I mean I built a pretty featureful P2P planning poker app using React and it's around 1300 lines of typescript. More, but I don't think it's a mind-blowing difference and I wasn't playing code golf when I wrote it. I wou

A one-off software license (or even a subscription) is completely different. The issue is metered billing for something you are paying for already which costs the company nothing. The equivalent is not only paying a flat monthly fee to Adob

A few days ago I was predicting to some colleagues a revival of ideas around "server-driven UI" (which never really seemed to catch on) in order to facilitate agentic UIs. Feels good to have been on the money, but I'm also gl

No need to leave, move up north and wait for all the shenanigans to blow over. Hard to be annoyed at the government and the corporations when you're walking through the Yorkshire dales on a sunny day
