The tap interaction is a bit janky on mobile.

That's impressive. I've only reported one bug to Chromium, years ago. It was a bug in their CSS engine and I included an HTML file with a full repro. It took them a few years to actually fix it since the person who was initially a

Hmmm, my anecdotal experience doesn't match up with this article. Personally I am seeing an explosion of AI-created apps. A number of different subreddits I use for disparate interests have been inundated with them lately. Show HN ha

It's not irrational at all! The act of doing something yourself brings inherent pleasure and satisfaction, whether that thing is "growing tomatoes" or "coding a feature". It makes us feel useful.

I've been seeing variations on your comment a lot on HN lately and I find it a rather vapid way of looking at something so intricate as human communication. Among other things, the medium is the message!

I mean I assume it's a bot comment. It has that LLM stink to it in writing style even without the "new account" signal.

Unmodified Blu-ray disc images are the BDMV folders I mentioned. Any BDMV will be unmodified almost all the time though I've very occasionally run into modified ones originating from the Chinese piracy scene that had custom subs added.

It's implemented in drive firmware, so the drive will refuse to read protected sectors without authentication.

You want to search for BDMV for full disc images, or for remuxes which are uncompressed video and audio streams, if you want to get a sense for the size on disc. Typical Blu-ray images will be from 20-40ish GB.

It's just an acquihire. On the startup's side, the company has failed and they would be shutting it down regardless; this way they've found jobs for their employees and saved face. On the acquirer's side, they've re

It appears that the original "research" was also pure AI slop--someone just asking Claude and quickly slapping together whatever it said. It's very low quality and should not be getting this much attention.

The touch functionality is useful until it isn't. My Pixel Buds will activate touch controls randomly and unnecessarily all the time when I'm trying to use them in bed, from the contact with the pillow or sheets. Drives me nuts. B

I don't spend much time on that subreddit, but I've seen that bot on a couple posts I've read and have been pleasantly surprised by how useful it seemed. I may eat my words on this later, but to me this is exactly the kind of

I think the comment you linked doesn't sound like AI at all, though. I do empathize with people worried about getting falsely accused of using AI in their writing, either hypothetically or in your case in actuality, but at the same tim

I recently installed Fedora with KDE Plasma on a new computer and I can't say I feel the same way. The UI is still clunky (eg the file explorer is clunky) and I'm running into minor bugs pretty regularly. Windows will be sized inc

The other guy's post was also very obviously written at least in part by an LLM. It's slop all the way down. I'm seriously considering taking a break from this site if this is the direction that everyone wants to go in.

You're saying that term limits reduce corruption? That's in fact not at all what the research says. There's a decent amount of research that suggests that they actually increase corruption. There's overwhelming evidenc

No, Old English is pre-Norman invasion. I think you have (understandably) misunderstood what a "negative concord" means--it's when a double negative is still a negative, ie multiple negative elements agree with each other rat

A moral stand? ... What? Did we read the same statement? It opens right out the gate with: >I believe deeply in the existential importance of using AI to defend the United States and other democracies, and to defeat our autocratic advers

I cycle accounts on here too (probably time to end this one, now that you mention it) but I don't plan on stopping. I refuse to build a long term identity on a platform that refuses to let me delete old comments if I want to (HN's

I'm with you on the AI slop but your complaint on this post just sounds like bootlicking. I would say that anarchist-style direct action against mass surveillance pretty much embodies the classic hacker ethos going back many decades at

This website is under attack from relentless AI slop spam, both in submissions and in comments, and I have absolutely no idea what we can do about it. To me this stuff is an existential threat to a site like this. I moderate a mid sized sub

This is really cool. With a newborn in the home I've been really thinking about projects like this recently. When you have a newborn things are so busy and hectic that it's easy to get overloaded and for things to slip through the

I think you are missing my point. Just because spelling can be inconsistent doesn't mean it's not conventional. We agree that certain letters and combinations of letters correspond to certain sounds--that's a convention. We c

Should be "how far back in time can you read English?" The language itself is what is spoken and the writing, while obviously related, is its own issue. Spelling is conventional and spelling and alphabet changes don't necessa

It's not a nit at all. This is some of the worst web design from a tech company that I've seen in a long time.

The article talks about this and in fact talks about how one of the advantages of the TUI was that by combining it with `tmux capture-pane` it ended up easier for Claude to use and iterate on, not harder.
