This line of argument sounds exactly what a lot of people tried in the past when they were getting hit by claims from the media companies.

If I were to scrape Meta's information and use it to train AI chat bots, would they say "That's fine, go ahead" because I'm not sharing the raw information in another way?

At its core, it’s just a text editor. You don’t need any subscription. It’s Local-first, uses Markdown, and if you want to sync or publish, there’s plenty of other tools for that purpose that don’t require an account, like Syncthing or Github Pages.

Unless I missed it, it seems strange that the article wouldn’t link to the Github repo for the TinyZero model.

Just like Microsoft's latest batch of Flight Simulator games, I'd love if there was a version of this for creating race tracks out of real areas in the world.

Highly suggest this book on Kissas and experiencing Japan through walking. Immersive photography as well.

I looked into this with my 4th generation Kindle; it seems like it won't be able to use any HTTPS website due to invalid certificate. However, setting it up to talk to a server on my local network would be the way to go. Thanks for the idea!

I saw an interesting tweet from DHH to Matt that seems relevant:

> I have nothing but the out-most respect for what you've built with WordPress. It's an incredible achievement, and you're been justly rewarded for that accomplishment. No need to squeeze the lemon that hard. It's undermining open source as a whole. [1]

A lot of folks had compared it to DHH/Basecamp because of the voluntary severance. But for the most part, those issues did not spill into Rails like this. I think if anyone can talk Matt down from the ledge, it would be another "Benevolent Dictator".

That said, I think DHH misses something: lots of people built Wordpress, not just Matt. And we are slowly seeing the most engaged people, some who do it for the love of Wordpress instead of the money, either back away or get forced out. THAT is what will kill the ecosystem that has been built. Any harm that WP Engine may have been doing cannot compare with the harm that's happening right now from their own spiteful actions.

I love Python, but I also love building web apps in the native language of JS/HTML/CSS. Often times these "build the web in X" solutions are amalgamating that language into code that looks almost like HTML or JS, just with a Python flavor. I would love to hear from someone who used to do full-stack and now has moved mostly into a solution like Rio?

Congrats on having the only kids on the planet that are gentle with everything and have never broken a single toy or object they have come into contact! What is your secret??

Each image has "pictured using generative tools" in the caption. I'm glad they are upfront about it not being a true idea of the concept, but I don't understand why New Atlas would use misleading GenAI images to when the Japan News article^1 has an informative graphic. The exaggeration in the text also makes me doubt their interpretation of the source article. It makes a lot of claims about self-driving capabilities and population decline that barely seem supported.

Hi-Fi Rush was a fantastic game, won major awards, showed off the promise of XBox Game Pass… and for their efforts their studio has been shut down. There have multiple instances of this in just the past few weeks; are publishers really going to just bet on their prime AAA titles (Call of Duty, Halo, GTA6, etc) and nothing else? And those games either take a lot of rotating studios and a long development cycle to release. What’s going to fill the gap?

Is there any software meant for casual users for displaying and walking around these objects? I'd love to have some sort of VR room with the simplicity of "The Sims" where I could add these, plus perhaps some connections to the rest of the internet. A fake TV that displays the frontpage of HN or a 24-hour Twitch feed. A radio object that can play Spotify streams, with 3D audio enabled.

There aren't any network calls; It's all pre-fetched and stored in the javascript file. The file itself seems to be tagged to the build, but it's in the ./hypersplit/assets/index-<ID>.js file.

I was recently searching for something like this - the ability to write PRQL queries on mobile is my ideal usecase. As you note, PRQL is perfect for putting together queries with drop-downs, so I'm a huge fan of the UI that you've put together. Feature request: Exposing the PRQL would be great, and using tabs to switch between the query and results would make it possible to work on mobile. Lastly, bookmarking those queries for later use would be great too!

I really think this should have GenAI in the title on the webpage or on here, because it's taking the source photo and making best guesses while creating details out of whole cloth. This isn't just "another photo filter", it's instead taking the picture and running with it with sometimes pretty poor results.

For example, I used a random selfie of me on the beach and big rocks in the water, wearing dark sunglasses and mouth closed.

Watercolor: Added eyes to my glasses (!). The rocks and water turned green, and it looked like I was standing in a park. Coloring Page: Ferns and trees added that weren't there before. Both: Gave me a teethy smile when my lips were closed.

The examples on the home page must have been extremely handpicked because I'm not seeing anything to that same fidelity.

The repo is pretty active too, wonder if there’s a follow up blog post about the transition. https://github.com/actualbudget/actual

> And by the way, 9 weeks of severance on pretty good tech job salaries is far richer than many get.

It's drastically shorter than their cohort of tech companies, which is the comparison they sell themselves as.

Between that and the rescinded offers, if they do ever make it out of this trough, they'll have a hard reputation to shake and have to pay up with signing bonuses.

Looking forward to hearing more about how I can help your company grow!

Hyperscript[1] pairs well with HTMX (as it should, it’s by the same group) and would fill those gaps.

A Twitter ‘hack’ I love is muting “rt @“ in the Latest Timeline to remove all natural retweets. I believe this works because Twitter still stores retweets as “rt @user tweet_content” on the backend, and you can see this in various Twitter CLI tools.

If I could remove all Quote Tweets in the same way, my timeline would be perfect.

Were the random capitalized words an attempt to keep attention? It knocked me out of a reading frame of mind and I immediately closed the tab. Felt like I was reading a Made On Tv product pitch that always results in finding the mute button.

I went 0/25 for correct moves, but I see by the solution that I did move the correct pieces at times. Perhaps that could be given the yellow color to highlight which pieces are involved? Otherwise novices like me are stuck if they never find that initial move.

It does work pretty well with “Request Desktop Site”, but not perfect. If I were making the decision, I’d have a message saying something to the effect of “Desktop preferred, continue anyway?”

> What makes Saylor so dangerous to investors is that he is sincere. Though he was cited for fraud by the SEC, Saylor is not a con man. He genuinely believes in his vision, his own version of reality. When another member of his generation of entrepreneurial millionaires joked to Saylor in a social setting that "you cost me a lot of money," the response, Leibovich reports, was something like "not as much as it cost me." Not once in hours of interviews, Leibovich says, did Saylor express remorse about how much the collapse of MicroStrategy stock cost investors who bought the shares because they bought into Saylor's "vision."

2022 has echoes of 2002.

There is a weapon in the dungeon! Just have to find it.

I'm not surprised at all. This is a company-wide philosophy that they should be the only CC processor.

I once did some contract work at Visa. At the time, I only had Mastercard and American Express. Went to their work cafe, tried to get some food, but was told (almost rudely) that they only took Visa. No cash either. I could buy a pre-paid card that can't be reloaded at one of the nearby kiosks (for 3 dollar fee per card). Needless to say, I went somewhere else for lunch.

Similarly, I was apart of a fraternity that was local to my school. But then a female sorority with a few more people came on Facebook, took/stole/transferred the likes, and now I have a pink flower where a black and white crest once was, and no way to reclaim all the old posts or pictures. It's very weird.

The same argument could be flipped on you! I believe you post a lot on Hacker News, but you don't own the code, servers, etc. You are a volunteer commenter. What if someone blocked and deleted all of your comments? Wouldn't you feel the slightest bit of loss?

It depends on what mouse or touchpad you have, but I find that I don't even use Command-Tab anymore. It lacks the precision of getting to exactly the right window. Launching Mission Control via touch allows me to switch to the window I need much faster.

I hear you on the maximizing thing; I ended up finding a program called Shift (http://shift-it.en.softonic.com/mac) works very well to maximize, snap a window to just the left or right half of the screen, etc. Hope that helps!
