Agreed, OpenAI and Anthropic want to get as close to the user as possible. Browser is used more often than a specific website or standalone desktop app and much less work than an entire OS. Raycast also seems well positioned but perhaps mor

Posts laden with cynicism are always popular on HN. Gets boring after a while. Was hoping for a more measured take on a genuine issue like this.

Am not money conscious in that regard. Own a full suite of Apple products and have no issue paying the premium for them. The issue is with the intentional misleading of people to think their device is slowing down when they just need a batt

This is great! Congrats and thanks for sharing your work! People have been asking for dark mode for years. This has it and so many other nice UI improvements too. Well done!

Linear.app is awesome. We switched from Jira and our team's participation on issues went through the roof. It's fast, clean, has keyboard shortcuts and replaces agile terminology with simpler, familiar paradigms. We activated Slac

I think this is going to be the natural side-effect. I remember seeing Monzo posting salary ranges of £40k - £100k for certain positions. So for the right person they'll make a plan but they can also lure in more candidates and low-bal

Yeah, I've just realised they've probably accidentally included a generic URL in the cache rules that they actually didn't intend to cache. I originally thought they were trying to cache account data responses and so wonder

I see, so the it's likely that a generic URL pattern (like your example) was accidentally included in their caching rules. I guess I didn't think of that originally because I thought if you wanted to cache some kind of response da

The blog post doesn't say much more than the headline. I'm curious about the specifics of what could of actually happened here. In my limited experience working with CDNs wouldn't you just cache the responses of unique URLs a

https://linear.app actually looks pretty cool. Real-time sync, keyboard shortcuts, clean UI, dark mode and a quick action CLI thing.

Totally. A light UI with some tuned edge caching and you will be golden. There are quite a few competitors popping up, the main issue is that they all seem to be bootstrapped and don't have the funding to make a disruptive marketing sp

JIRA is unrivalled in my opinion. Just loaded up a random ticket page with one comment and no attachments. - 105 requests - 3.9MB transferred - 13.9MB resources - 32.57s load time Here's a nice repo of other examples: https:/&#x2

Awesome work! I was wanting to build a library like this myself but you've executed it way better! You should try to build and charge for a web API for this to let communities auto-generate avatars for their new users.

Visiting London is a blast, living and working there is a grind. I was deeply unhappy after three years (from 2016) but I really enjoy going back to visit socially. I was earning pretty decently and living in Zone 2 between Holloway Road (P

Domain names seem analogous to property. A good .com gives a business the digital prestige comparable to having a store on 5th Avenue, New Bond Street or the Champs-Élysées. Then there other parts of town (.io, .co, .app and so on) which be

While searching for a domain the other day I came across the lovechild of domain squatters - venture.com - which allows you to rent a .com domain for a couple of grand a month. I never thought the bar could go lower.

The remote tech workers and manufacturing labourers compared in the article are both still subject to the same market forces. Remuneration is the equilibrium of what a company is willing to buy at and what the worker is willing to sell at.
