Apparently the first modern vehicle to have this was indeed the BMW iREX. However, the first vehicle to have this at all was some 1901 Porsche model...

"The service formerly known as Twitter"...

Well, sadly it's off topic on HN where everyone seems to only read non fiction. Or they don't admit to reading fiction...

Cloudflare is the only CDN with a free tier that's basically enough for personal use and even a small organization, right?

I have the habit of not reading the user names, so I reply to the post not to my image of the author. Which is why I was triggered by "handsome" too.

First: Registrars could ask for an escrow payment. Pay €9 for the domain name put €900 in escrow Next: I don't want to live in a world where I have to show my passport and pay thousands of pounds to register a domain Want or not want?

I've been in small offices where having slippers wasn't mandatory, but everyone brought them just because they were more comfortable. Also in one where taking your shoes off or using those medical plastic covers was mandatory (in

Maybe because you can open a terminal, do port install mc and then ignore the Finder most of the time :)

I don't think it matters that Asashi is a generation or three behind, because the moment you really need it is when Apple stops updating the OS for your hardware. When M1 drops out of support I bet Asashi for the M1 machines will be pr

Hotels in the path of the eclipse were already expensive on those dates in Gibraltar and Spain. Now with the press coverage they'll be unattainable.

Probably not, but that may show how low trust in the US has dropped?

Ah well. Google helps me degoogle. Can't complain much can I? Anyone has recommendations for send-only (or that allow being used only to send) email services? Not those that are used for commercial emails, even if legit.

Hmm I'm confused. I have my own domain that is totally not hosted on google. However, I use Google's SMTP to send mail as that domain (specifically the one email address that is enabled on my custom domain). For that I'm auth

Sir, have you considered a career in social networking engagement? Edit: 10 years since i made the HN account and I only now notice you can't see the scores of other people's comments. Here's hoping the brilliance of the abov

I only saw the "revised title" and yes, it's still confusing :)

by nottorp 12d ago
Trouble is, from the existing title it's not clear who had the handicap. So the poster is right to try and fix it.

Basically that using "commits" implies a certain degree of psychological detachment from your work. Did you ever use "commits" before LLMs came out? An actual psychologist could explain it much better than me, but i noti

by nottorp 14d ago
That's how the LLMs made you think of your work? You're producing commits now? It's like "content creator" vs "writer" or "artist".

It would be too easy to have every option in a config file documented in comments in the default config file. Think of the poor tutorial industry. It may even make chatbots less useful.

This is basically the same keyword matching every job posting uses correct? But the optimal for those isn't to post a generic who wants to be hired but have a LLM rewrite your resume to match the job description isn't it?

I pinned 4.8 because 5 started to build the application on its own (native windows, visual studio NOT code). I wouldn't mind much except it seems to take much longer than me alt tabbing and hitting control+b. Also it seems to start sub
