This would be a game changer if they had something for image generation as well. Oh well, maybe it's coming soon as the page says it's just a small preview. The best part for me personally is it's available on all plans and p

I was really excited about fly.io at one point but after reading all the recent posts(1) on HN I don't have trust in their services anymore. Hope they are working on improving system stability first. (1) https://hn.algolia.c

Wow this is just incredible! Seeing this and software like photopea I can now start to feel that HTML has become powerful enough that almost any desktop app can now be built for the web just as same. A lot of people/companies tried the

Not asking rhetorically but why is this a big deal? Is it because it's going to the south pole? What are some other benefits to be gained from this?

Isn't GPT 4 very costly? Plus you're running a scraper. How do you plan to keep this free, or is this just a teaser? This may be useful but would love some clarity on how long you're gonna keep it like this.

It's the insane power that companies like Google, Microsoft, and Apple hold over the tech world. It's like they can just dictate everything to suit their own interests, and it's the users who end up losing out. Remember when

Yes I agree 100%. These type of demos teach me nothing and are annoying as hell. The only button I'm looking for is the skip button. For the rare cases when the UI doesn't make sense, reading the docs or watching a demo video is f
