cAtte_··on SpacetimeDB v1.0: Multiplayer at the speed of light
i don't see how a "militantly open source" project can be released under a (4-year!) BSL
cAtte_··on Show HN: OCR pipeline for ML training (tables, diagrams, math, multilingual)
why are you using an LLM to reply to every comment?
cAtte_··on Curl-impersonate: Special build of curl that can impersonate the major browsers
no, nyanpasu64's comment extended the discussion to general bot detection
cAtte_··on Hacking the call records of millions of Americans
though it seems a little strange that the name of the endpoint would be repeated three times across the URL (including domain name), it looks like CLR stands for "call log retrieval"
cAtte_··on Apple's Cubify Anything: Scaling Indoor 3D Object Detection
this is bizarre; both accounts were created on the same day, 5 weeks ago
cAtte_··on Minimal CSS-only blurry image placeholders
see also the author's last note on the upcoming parsing feature of `attr()`, which would solve both problems (performance and verbosity) at once:

cAtte_··on Show HN: Make SVGs interactive in React with 1 line
yeah, not sure why anyone would copy-paste SVG as JSX when SVGR exists: https://react-svgr.com/
cAtte_··on BreezeWiki makes wiki pages on Fandom readable
if you open any of the links for Minecraft, TARDIS, or Zelda, you'll see there's a gigantic banner placed by BreezeWiki that directs you to the new wikis. unless you mean that the links themselves are bad for SEO, which is unlikely
cAtte_··on Everyone knows all the apps on your phone
"similar". so what you said isn't true then?
cAtte_··on I'd like to take a moment to speak to you about the Adobe PSD format (2009)
how do you think they managed to write the parser without access to the spec then? clearly OP knew about the public document. instead it seems like they're referring to some weird private superset of the format that wasn't publicly available
cAtte_··on Show HN: I built a modern Goodreads alternative
you use a 7 point system
cAtte_··on Show HN: Open-source Counter-Strike-like game
even if you were infringing on Valve's copyrights (which you probably aren't, you're just using one of their trademarks), licensing your project or not wouldn't change that at all. but more importantly, by not including a license file in your repository, you are asking everyone to assume that your project is not licensed, therefore all rights are reserved, therefore it's not actually open-source (a comment on HN is sadly not enough): https://docs.github.com/en/repositories/managing-your-reposi....
cAtte_··on Introducing Our New Name
> We decided to avoid using “free” or “libre” in the name ... Projects like Blender, Krita, or Godot are awesome, and they don’t need to convince you about their libre nature by putting it in their names.

so... we decided to add the name of the programming language we use instead?

cAtte_··on Rolldown: Rollup compatible bundler written in Rust
note that esbuild is written in go, not rust
cAtte_··on Magika: AI powered fast and efficient file type identification
the rules aren't based on the formats, but on a small portion of them (their magic numbers). this makes them inaccurate (think docx vs zip) and heuristic.
