It was more the indoor parts, ie the human-less doors. We had plans for them into the utility which is where their trays are but just couldn't fit the cat doors in (the human doors are crittall, ie glass so couldnt put them into the do

100%. It's hard work and good luck/timing, not privilege.

I really didn't expect this to be the take on HN... - He's been in big (huge) tech since 2005 - She is an angel investor - Moved to Austin ... Does privileged just mean wealthy/successful now?

Just came here to say, everything about this is incredible. The house itself, the site, the FAQs but most of all, the attention that went into the cat's needs. 11/10. We want(ed) to do something similar (re the cats needs) when re

This is a very apt right now. The amount of AI posts is... boring to say the least. I've always used the comments to upvotes ratio to workout if an article is worth reading. If the comments are higher than the upvotes, it's poor.

I imagine OP knows but uses the domain to hide the article based on his own instinct/history with said domain.

This is very satisfying to play with, top work!

I was simplifying my HN comment for brevity, I didn't just go "you've made a mistake by not hiring me, gimme the job" in the letter.

Putting all of the ethical issues aside, do you know how fucking boring this would be?

I like the top reply: > "The true purpose of AI is to allow wealth to access skill without allowing skill to access wealth."

I was rejected from a job interview a few years ago - wow 13 years ago now - and was honestly shocked after how well the interview went. I decided to write a letter (email) to the HR department implying they'd made a huge mistake (the

No I'm not, I expressed it... I prefaced it with that to simply say I knew it'd be an unpopular opinion.

I'm going to get downvoted/flagged but I feel like we need a new type of "Show HN/Tell HN" etc for "New AI Model Available". Front page is tedious these days.

Sure, they retarget ads they think you might want to see, but the difference is when using Google you are actively looking for something, not passively.

When you use Google you are generally actively looking for something. When you use Facebook you get ads for things you aren't looking for.

OP clearly meant that the AI players are not reading and/or honouring llms.txt of other websites when scraping.

Semi linked: I, like many others, play Wordle daily. When the page loads, there is a button to play todays challenge. Then, there is a very small delay (like 100ms) and suddenly a button to "View all games" appears, right where yo

No, I think "us" is apt, considering this will eventually affect all sites that rely on traffic from Google search, which is basically every text heavy site. All we can hope for is that people will stop using search (after eventua

Crazy. I'm sure I paid around $40-70 back in 2016. Honestly Plex has been wearing me down for years but I'm too lazy to move to an alternative.

I think (a public) phpMyAdmin in 2026 deserves a good bashing. (I have been working with PHP for 20 years)
27.
by m4tthumphrey 4mo ago
Came here to say this. Absolutely insane. Why is phpMyAdmin even still needed/wanted in 2026? It's not exactly user friendly for a developer, let alone an average Gov employee...

Cool idea but I am not old enough/have not have enough (any) interest in some of the older products, so I think a "skip" option would be cool.
