I certainly don't want to confuse anyone, so I added captions to every image (and alt-text, while I was at it). Thanks for the heads-up.

It's not an advertisement for Claude. It's a screenshot from the relevant part of Qontour's website that I was referring to in my post.

This is definitely not something Neal would ever do. Can you share the URL you're talking about? There's no IQ test in his projects list at all. https://neal.fun/

They said they’re looking to “move out of China,” but that almost certainly doesn’t mean the U.S. Probably India or Vietnam, maybe Turkey or Malaysia.

The Web Monetization API was another recent effort to try to make this, the latest of many attempts. See previous HN discussion: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39274455 My guess is that 1. there’s virtually no demand

I ordered one yesterday as I wrapping up the post, and it was already shipped early this morning.

A semantic search engine for Steam games sounds like my jam. You should put a link to it in your HN profile!

I mentioned it in my post: in Image Capture, select the “Virtual Scanner II” device if it exists, and in the Details, set the Media to “Document” and Media DPI to “72 DPI.” You should see the preview of the first page of the Bitcoin paper.

Others have confirmed to me that it wasn't in High Sierra (10.13) and shipped with Mojave in 10.14.0.

Hi, I wrote the post. This is patently false. There are plenty of articles about the clip, but none of the videos are still online and there’s no alternate angles, period. Please feel free to post links to prove otherwise.

Hi! I work on Skittish. There's a minimap (and spatial audio, chat, emotes, and a bunch of other settings/features) in the full Skittish app that didn't make it into the demo. Create a new event and try it out!

The Brothers Chaps will probably end up switching from Flash to Ruffle on their own site eventually, but until then, the Internet Archive has almost all the Strong Bad Emails archived here playable with Ruffle. https://archive.or

Have you played Contra? The weapons are about as realistic as Mega Man's. It looks more like using bubbles to pop an endless stream of bad guys, Bubble Bobble-style. https://media.giphy.com/media/DpXqHdILXRRDi&#x2F

Hi, I wrote the article! Thanks for your commentary, snidely passing judgement on me and my family. Much appreciated. The article was intended to be a little provocative, more than a little tongue-in-cheek, but suffice it to say, I never wo

Hi, I wrote the article! We played a bunch of PC stuff along the way, including a good chunk of the Lucasarts catalog. We skipped the text adventure genre entirely when he was little, but we're making up for that now that he loves read

Hi! I wrote the article. First off, I find it disingenuous that you don't mention you work for Google. But, hey! I'll give you the benefit of the doubt that it was a simple oversight. Addressing your comments: 1. Google News Archi

Hey, I made this. I built it for myself, have been using it privately for the last six months, and opened it up publicly for friends this morning. (Which is why it has no credits/about page/nav/etc.) It's an automated ag

Solid question, and I don't blame you for being skeptical. I went through the normal submission process, and was reviewed by a moderator I don't know and have never met. I very explicitly didn't want any special treatment. I

Super weird, I didn't get any sound in the slideshow at all, except when playing the Veronica Mars trailer and Werner Herzog video, which required user action to play. I went through the entire thing, not sure what I'm missing. Wh
