If this player has true random playing of your songs, instant sell for me. Also, a mobile version would be great, even if I have to do a manual install. Spotify's "random shuffle" has been broken for years, with a long run

I used AI to make a presentation that animated around (html). It had the look of the storyboard and the postcards had tweakable controls on them for the data I wanted to show. It was pretty slick, something that would take me forever (and

Totally depends. The real question is what's your average productivity increase? I had a task to completely gut out a codebase to share with a vendor. I gave them my estimate - 2 weeks. Asked Claude to do it, and was done in an hour

I made an image and it fooled GPT. I asked it to look for a hidden message and it found the blurred word. Still cool+fun though.

Clicked on link, it tried to upsell me on twitter prime or whatever it is. Closed the promotion, now I'm just sitting on twitter, not on the link I clicked on. That is sad.

I guess I'll play devil's advocate here, don't shoot me. Over the course of my career I've had to deal with multiple hacks, DDOSes, and even situations working with the FBI. It's a mess, and extremely frustrating a

the new bottleneck for development at work is code reviews. devs are creating whole features that would take months in only a couple weeks, but code reviewing that is a slow, painful process

The low latency is more of a pain point than a good thing, the way they have it implemented. Trying to have a casual conversation with it, as humans we naturally pause, and GPT will take this as you are "done" and start blabbing

Just happened to me and I was really confused. First time I've seen any malware callouts so it had me worried for a minute. > This file is clearly not malware Yeah, it's all my code, that you've seen before...

I blame the prevalence of package mangers in the first place. Never liked em, just for this reason. Things were fine before they became mainstream. Another annoying reason is package files that are set to grab the latest version, randoml

While visiting a friend in Russia I was perplexed by the candle in his flat - it had zero flicker, was stable and unmoving. Eventually I learned how they heated the flat, with water flowing through pipes and heat radiation - so little to n

We didn't set out to hide our GDPR requests, we put them behind our Support/Legal button. But we got sued anyway, and we lost. Now we have to have the "delete my data" and "request my data" as part of our main

I wouldn't. The current theories on sleep and "brain needs sleep" always struck me as a stopgap theory. Even spent some time with GPT arguing about it and never felt fully convinced, like the real reason was still missing.

From an economic perspective these new blanket import tariffs are a classic own-goal: tariffs are good for developing industries, but these levies hit huge, mature supply chains, so the main outcome is higher consumer prices, squeezed real

Didn't catch my original account when I tried it, not anywhere in top 100. But, if I do the reverse (search using my original account), this one shows up as #2. The main difference between the accounts is this one has a lot more posts,
