I've noticed there seems to be a default style that is easier to detect. I've noticed it harder to detect when asking an LLM to use a different style (more conversational, avoid sounding like an AI, don't use emdashes, etc).

As a long-time Costco member and very minor shareholder (like 10 shares), lawsuits like this are frustrating. It is in my best interest as both member and shareholder for Costco to relentlessly look for opportunities to reduce costs, includ

I have 3 kids (14, 12, 11). I could have used something like this when they were around 10-12 to create some accountability for simple tasks like "pick up your room" or more commonly the dreaded 20 minutes of reading, especially w

It seems the problem is looking for a single picture to represent the whole. Why not have generative AI always generate multiple images (or a collage) that are forced to be different? Only after that collage has been generated can the user

I have been looking for a solution where I can remote into my company laptop in a pinch from my phone. Many of our cloud resources are moving to be private IPs and VPN only, which can only run on corporate managed devices. I have a few PIs

Looks good. We use CoCalc for similar collaboration benefits. There is a self-hosted option which was important to us. CoCalc has been a game changer as we've all moved remote. Once Deepnote adds the self-hosted / cloud option

Seems like an advertisement for a book to get access to the content. The book is authored by the same person who wrote the article and the poster is new. I flagged it

I understand that naming conflicts make things harder to search for, but I don't like the notion of a 'we' saying how things can be named. People should be free to name their projects how they see fit and whatever connects wi

There is likely a sizable number of your trial users from HN who signed up merely to better understand it and see if it actually works. It crossed my mind to do it, so presumably others too. The initial spike could be largely driven by tech

Nice work. A few thoughts came to mind after reading other comments. I wonder how the tree concept works when responses are long or short. It seems to me that short would encourage more of a "ping pong" style thread which may be d

This looks similar in many ways to mithril[1] -- somewhat similar api - mount, view, r("input") vs m("input"). The counter example[2] looks similar[3] I'd be interested in seeing comparisons between the two. [1] ht

Your templates feature is useful and seems to be missing in most notes apps I've looked at. We are looking for a tool to create our playbooks in and then track the execution of instances of those plays. For example, a "onboarding

Yes, I would pay a little more. $5/mo is the max -- any more than that I would probably just do a family plan or something. I would prefer something nominal like $2/per device/per month

I like the idea of this as a second device that has phone capabilities. I wish it were easy/quick to switch between multiple devices on the same cell plan. I don't particularly want to go out running with my google pixel, better t

It seems KDB excels at queries, joins, and aggregates on large datasets. I have limited experience with redis, but if that type of code would need to be written in c/python with redis then KDB may have a performance and productivity li

This greatly helped my understanding of how compilers work. How different would the implementation be for x64? Would it primarily be a matter of translating opcodes and calling conventions? For example, pop ecx is 59 [1], and on x64 it look

Wording suggestion - I had no idea what this phrase meant: "You have at least 1 year commercial XP or skills that match." After about 2 minutes of thought I deduced that it must mean experience. I first thought it meant XP = Extr

Can task statuses be updated through e-mail? I don't see anything mentioned about it. I work on a team where it's typical to respond to the email when something is done instead of going to the web. There are many different ways it

I am surprised by the name. The word tramp has a negative connotation for me. I would be somewhat concerned about it being blocked at firewalls or showing up in my address history.

Spinning a wheel with token prizes (upwards of a $300 item) is not necessarily a terrible, humiliating idea. I have participated in a similar exercise at a previous company and it was well received. In that case, we all wanted to improve th
