They are most likely referring to the overall size of the whole website including all generated HTML for posts, static content, styles etc.

Certain smartwatches offer a "pebble mode" feature like the Xiaomi band 9, you can get a keyring case for it and just attach it like that. I don't think it has automatic switching between exercise modes just tracking for step

A fan chiming in. I'm really happy someone someone is tackling this and it's looking good. One thing: can we get a demo instance just for initial snooping? A screenshot or two is fine but to get a feel for features it would be nic

Whoop targets a pretty solid demographic of people who seem to want an auxillary training coach (the app tells you when to go to sleep) and don't want a typical smartwatch experience. I'm not sure where modern smartwatches stand i

I'm not sure how I feel about the take on "disappearing pillars". I think that knowledge and expertise in the different "pillars" the author describes has become easier to access, reducing the moat around the indivi

The market for TODO list apps is 1 for every person in the world, everyone has a slightly different subjectivity and therefore has a slightly different optimal experience when it comes to TODO lists. Subjectivity is formed over time and thr

I've had good success teaching markdown to a fair few non-techie people. At the end of the day it better serves as a machine-readable middleground between a user-facing WYSIWYG (markdown-powered) editor and the server responding to it.

Both the work done here and the quality of explanation, as well as the thoughtful challenges to the reader, are top notch. Thank you for sharing.

The difference here might be the rather huge gap between putting together a solid "blog post" and a solid "paper" on a subject. I agree these "types" of essays are difficult to challenge and given the sheer len

The abstract mentions the patients cholesterol level is 1000mg/dL which is at least 4 times more than the "highly dangerous" bracket. Evidence seems to show that xanthelasma (the nodules seen on this person) can have a link t

Do I understand correctly you chat wıth Claude as a form of social relief or are you talking about drinking beer and chatting with it about work/ideation etc. Either way, just curious! On topic though, I wholeheartedly agree that this

I could not disagree more, but I am obviously open to it being a personal preference. I've spent months updating JavaScript codebases that are between 3 and 5 years old, most of them written with vanilla JavaScript. A _few_ of them wer

I believe that Claude has been running JavaScript code for itself for a bit now[1]. I could have sworn it also runs Python code, but I cannot find any post concretely describing it. I've seen it "iterate" on code by itself a

Not to be an angry old person shouting at clouds but what is this? Seemingly just AI slop in the form of a ChatGPT wrapper (confirmed via the POST request it makes with a prompt every time you hit "generate"). There are very popul

Looks like the website is built with Laravel[1] using Livewire[2] (Alpine JS on the front-end) and the UI library used is Flux[3]. [1]: https://laravel.com/ [2]: https://livewire.laravel.com/ [3]: https:&#

Agreed, missing opportunity to be able to change a url from github.com/cyclotruc/gitingest to gitingest.com/cyclotruc/gitingest and simply recieve the result as plain text. A very useful little tool nonetheless.

It was fairly random, someone in my network had mentioned that Max was looking for people to take part in the project and I reached out. I was given a date and time slot and that was that.

I'm not sure anyone tried to actually use it as a passport photo. Would have been a great touch though.

Oh! Something I took a part in on HN. That's a first. Almost everything there was practical. Highly recommend checking out all of Max's work, beaming with creativity.

Indeed, many applications I would expect to prevent sleeping (some audio playback ones, games, etc.) don't implement this. I assume it's a case of Apple's APIs changing over the years and not everyone catching up/caring.

I thought the fact it is running from a Lisp script, uses Hunchentoot, and uses XSLTs for it's feed pages already puts it in some niche category of "huh, neat".

The slides from the Spark AI 2020 summit [1] helped me understand this a bit. If I get it correctly, the premise is that a specific format is used to organise information into efficient blocks where related column data "lives" clo

Very valid point, the frustrations here do share commonalities with the overall HTTP ecosystem.

I'm not sure how I feel about the content of this entire post. RSS feeds are a more or less stagnant technology, mostly adopted "for fun" or by a niche of people who find them useful. The only way I can see to move forward is

The paper[1] seems to imply agitation is exactly what this method is promoting: "Furthermore, acoustic streaming induced greater mixing and enhanced mass transfer during brewing.". I assume the 100W of ultrasonic energy would be p
