SeriousStorm··on I built Timeframe, our family e-paper dashboard
Agreed. Especially the current weather conditions. That's mostly useless info. Knowing the weather forecast for tomorrow or this weekend is actually useful.

It's strange that pretty much every weather widget assumes you want to know the current weather conditions and not the forecast.

SeriousStorm··on Microsoft Copilot AI Comes to LG TVs, and Can't Be Deleted
Before you buy an Apple TV you can try installing ProjectIvy launcher and see if that suits your needs. It's basically a simplified launcher UI for Android TV devices.

It's not perfect, not if it suits your needs you won't have to buy another device.

SeriousStorm··on Ask HN: What Are You Working On? (December 2025)
My wife and I play this every day. It's the only fault word games that has ever caught my interest.

The UI is fantastic too.

SeriousStorm··on Ask HN: What Are You Working On? (Nov 2025)
IMO I shouldn't change the onboarding much. The game is very intuitive. Everyone I showed it to has picked it up in about 30 seconds.

It's very much a learn-by-doing game.

PS - This game is so fun. I don't usually do word games, but I can't stop playing this one.

SeriousStorm··on Job-seekers are dodging AI interviewers
Off topic, but what is your process for blocking the entire domain in email? I want to start doing something similar.
SeriousStorm··on Apple's Software Quality Crisis
I ran into this issue with the Sonoma update. My display (4k LG) was negotiating RGB just fine before, but not anymore. The BetterDisplay workaround hasn't worked for me. The poor colors and fuzzy edges around all the text is causing eye strain too. I'm beyond furious.
SeriousStorm··on Hoarder: Self-hostable bookmark-everything app
Love this app. The only thing on my wishlist is a way to "discover" stuff I've bookmarked before when googling. So the extension would search Hoarder when I search Google (or wherever search engine) and give me a list of those next to my Google search or in the extension drop-down. I sometimes forget that I bookmarked a solution 3 weeks ago, and now I'm searching for that solution again.

I think Evernote had something like this when I was using it.

Different user here, all of my upgrades have been completely seamless.
SeriousStorm··on All the data can be yours: reverse engineering APIs
I found this recently, but I haven't tried it yet.

SeriousStorm··on LLM that can call multiple tool APIs with one request
Every time I look into building a workflow with langchain it seems unnecessarily complex. So I end up stopping.

Are you just running an LLM server (Ollama, llama.cpp, etc) and then making API calls to that server with plain Python or is it more than that?

SeriousStorm··on Panda CSS: build time and type-safe CSS-in-JS
None of Tailwind's dependencies ship to your production app. Tailwind is a CSS build system (mostly) so when you build for prod, the only thing that ships to prod is a CSS file.
SeriousStorm··on Young people are flocking to astrology
I was born into a cult adjacent / high-demand religion and then left in my mid-thirties. There are a lot of people who are extremely intelligent but have a corner of their world-view (religious beliefs, etc) that completely contradict the other rational areas of their beliefs.

I think it's much more helpful to consider their beliefs in this area irrational or illogical rather than assume that this lack of logic applies universally to all of their knowledge.

Every single human that has ever lived has, at one point in time or another, held beliefs that are illogical and irrational. And nearly all of us still do hold such beliefs.
