his new show The Studio on Apple TV is phenomenal

the first publication (that I recall) that offered a chatbot for news too, right?

Believing that tech has nothing to do with politics is magical thinking.

funny to read this on the day that Trump announces tariffs for... (reasons?)

My wife is on Kaiser, she was having extreme, persistent back pain. Before she could even talk a specialist, they told her she needed to attend a live webinar about back pain that was scheduled for 3 weeks later...

I live in the US and I bought a Tesla in early 2020, it's easily the worst purchase I've ever made.

The build quality is crap, the interior cheap feeling, and yes I got FSD and that is the worst part. FSD is only adequate in bumper to bumper traffic.

Any other scenario it's not good enough to drive itself without you babysitting it. So if you have to babysit it, what's the point? It's actually worse to babysit it than just to drive normally, because you get frustrated with FSD's shortcomings (wide turns, inability to merge, sudden freak outs when the painted road lines are obscured).

this is so stupid and impractical and I love it so hard

Don’t think that would fit, and it’s still accurate, as Houston area customers of CenterPoint are Texans that lack official sources

Edit: changed to _some_ Texans

this is entirely logical. But not applicable to Earth, humans, society, etc.

this is very cool! Just tried this on my TT (Pro-Ject Carbon Debut EVO) and got a perfect 33 1/3 and had to brag

thanks for making this, and in general I love digital experiences that match with analog media, please keep making more and lmk if you want any free ideas

This is very cool. I wouldn't make buying decisions off of this, but it is a good starting point to get a pulse on the developer zeitgeist on any given topic.

this is one of those stories where you first hear it, you stop and think for one beat and then you say "of course, what an obvious move"

yes it's puzzling how simplistic this framing is. I would expect more from the Vice-Chair of the OSI.

it wasn't a firestorm. It was one tweet so horrible that it went viral for its horribleness, not because any meaningful amount of people thought it was a valid argument.

I beg you, beg you to read the very short article. It's Gruber's own bar for what he (John Gruber) will install on his phone, not the bar of the App Store reviewers.

that's his point though. There is a higher bar for an app he installs on his device vs a website he would load without having to consider such things

this reads more like content marketing for a private college based in Texas than a substantive academic commentary.

"... we’re exploring all possible routes for it going forward.”

I hope they choose the most obvious route, open sourcing it.

They've already publicly stated their intention to move on from the idea, so why not?

Intuit is an embarrassment of a tech company. Instead of innovating in software, they've invested infinitely more in lobbying to keep tax-filing complex and in creating new and innovative dark patterns to obscure their (federally mandated, btw) free product.

you mean Ask HN? Those are normal posts like the one you just did. Just literally type Ask HN: (question) as the title, leave the URL blank and you're good

Hats off to a legend. Twilio was The Beatles to the devtools space. They defined modern devrel and the bottom-up/PLG GTM motion. He also disproved would-be investors who said developers would never pay for an API; in fact they’d prefer that to building something only to get rug-pulled when a company decided their free API was no longer strategic for them.

And while you hear a lot about ruthless but effective asshole CEOs, Jeff happens to be a brilliant executive and a great human all at the same time.

True visionary and 1 of 1.

didn't editorialize, this is what auto-populated when I submitted via the HN bookmarklet

but point taken, will edit

I don't get the concern? This seems like the least shadiest thing Intuit has ever done wrt TurboTax

What am I missing?

an unceremonious end to Twitter's fraught relationship with developers, in spite of which some amazing companies sprouted.
