dagorenouf··on I'm the mom in that viral Giants clip. Let me tell you about my husband
It’s making me sad that this article needed to exist in the first place. Just leave people alone.
dagorenouf··on What Using AI Therapy Gets Wrong
I never found a therapist able to go as deep as I wished to help me solve trauma. They always end up focusing on short term solutions to help me get more “functional”. But with AI, I could go as deep as I need, and I unlocked 30+ year old buried trauma that I could heal from in 6 months. Granted it’s not for everyone and I studied a lot of psychology to get there, but it was worth it. Fuck (most) therapists.
dagorenouf··on Minimal Phone 2
Why on earth does this need an oled screen and aluminum body? They’re trying to be Apple when they should be the opposite.
dagorenouf··on Show HN: Halo 3's Guardian, playable in the browser, as my personal website
Sir you made my day. Worked on iPhone se3.
dagorenouf··on Ask HN: What Are You Working On? (July 2026)
I started playing with hardware manufacturing, as I think there is value into getting specific devices for listening to music, taking notes, etc. Using a smartphone is like opening up a candy box, and kills much of the joy and appreciation for what we do on it. My first project is a music player. Making my first prototype with a 3d printer.
dagorenouf··on Reflections on OpenAI
Maybe I’m paranoid but this sounds too good to be true. Almost like something planted to help with recruiting after meta poached their best guys.
dagorenouf··on We fell out of love with Next.js and back in love with Ruby on Rails
I followed the same journey but was unimpressed by Rails attempt at modernization with Hotwire. Decided to give Elixir + Phoenix a try and immediately fell in love. Just like I had with rails years ago. I highly recommend people to check it out, liveview is a game changer for building modern web apps without the complexity of JS, and without the baggage of using Rails to do it. And performance is mind blowing.
dagorenouf··on Visiting Us
I read all these comments thinking it was about Epic Games. Then after 5 minutes clicked the link and discovered a one of a kind American company.
dagorenouf··on Why is OpenAI buying Windsurf?
where did you see this?
dagorenouf··on The Frontend Treadmill
I have too and the react of today is vastly different from the react of 5 years ago. Which itself was vastly different from the original react.

It’s different paradigm, best practice, file organization, etc.

So it’s close to learning a new language.

And I won’t even go into the fact that Next is replacing React as the standard.

dagorenouf··on Show HN: I made a tool to save multimedia from various platforms
It could be super useful but I tried to download an instagram reel and it doesn't work. https://www.instagram.com/p/DE3gmTfsUlg/?hl=fr
dagorenouf··on Ask HN: Define Marketing
Simplest thing I could come up with: Marketing is the message that describes your product (copywriting, branding, positioning) + the distribution channels to spread it to the right people (SEO, social media, ads, etc.)
dagorenouf··on Show HN: I made a fake MRR generator
No b.s
dagorenouf··on Far right Twitter influencers first on Elon Musk’s monetization scheme
1. to get paid on twitter you need to subscribe to the $8/mo checkmark

2. most people currently subscribed are musk fans (likely right wing)

Consequence: most people who get paid today are right-wing. But if big accounts from the left came back and subscribed to the $8/mo checkmark, they would get paid too.

dagorenouf··on Twitter just paid me almost $25,000
This is not factual. I pay for twitter blue and don't follow elon musk. I even muted him + associated topic some time ago. I still got the blue checkmark. Even the data you link to shows that 10/29 people who got paid don't follow elon musk. However it makes sense that a majority does since a lot of blue subsribers do so because they like and trust him.
dagorenouf··on Show HN: Splitzy – Dead simple and privacy-friendly website A/B testing
Good idea, most of these tools are too expensive for indie projects
dagorenouf··on Show HN: Open sourcing Harmonic, my Android Hacker News client
What’s the best alternative for iOS?
dagorenouf··on The world’s oldest ultramarathon runner is racing against death
I’ve seen a study showing that people who run a lot may actually live shorter than people who just do moderate exercise. Extreme exercise could be as bad as no exercise at all.

dagorenouf··on Tucker Carlson bringing show to Twitter
As a content creator, the fear of being randomly banned / blacklisted by the platform I use is all too real. It happened to a friend of mine with a decent sized YouTube channel for 0 legitimate reason.

Carlson picked the twitter platform not because it’s the best tool to host a show (YouTube or twitch would be better), but because it’s the place least likely to ban him.

That might be the beginning of a new MOAT for twitter, if they survive long enough to make something from it. And politics aside could be beneficial to everyone.

dagorenouf··on YouTube, the jewel of the internet
Interesting. If she wants to know "how do I" stuff, then I guess chatgpt will be a huge success for her generation!
dagorenouf··on iOS 17 app sideloading might only be available in Europe
I don’t know why everybody trusts government bodies to act fast and delegate authority as needed when it’s clearly not how things happen in the real world. The nature of government is to be slow, safe and long-term, not enable technological disruption.

For example the cookie law has made most websites significantly less enjoyable and everybody hates it and yet it has been stuck for years, no hope of improvement in sight.

dagorenouf··on Gamers 50-plus are a growing force in the tech market
I grew up with video games and believed it would be a young people’s thing forever.

But now when I talk to young people, many of them don’t play or even know many games, and would rather just watch Netflix or YouTube.

However friends of my own age still play games.

So maybe video games isn’t actually a thing for young people, but simply a thing for people who were born in the 80-90s.

Just like rock’n’roll music. We used to think it was evergreen music for teens… But overtime realized it was simply for people born in the 40s-50s. And now it’s an old people’s thing.

dagorenouf··on iOS 17 app sideloading might only be available in Europe
I never understood why this law became so important either. what’s so bad of having 2-3 different type of ports? If your senator / deputy has time to spend working on such laws then maybe they need to rethink their career choice.
dagorenouf··on YouTube, the jewel of the internet
Doesn't that make her slower? Youtube has better quality results most of the time, but it takes so long to watch the video and get to the information I want... I always start with a google search for that reason.
dagorenouf··on iOS 17 app sideloading might only be available in Europe
Usb-c sounds cool for now. But what about when a new port comes out and Apple can’t use it because the EU still mandates to use the old one?
dagorenouf··on Ask HN: As a dev: learn marketing? Or start side project? (startup skills)
This is the most valuable skill to learn. Also try to build an audience around a topic you know well on social media.
dagorenouf··on Future Blues – Emily's Cowboy Bebop Page (1999)
Congrats on the site creator for continuing to update it after all these years.
dagorenouf··on Culture Is Stuck
Seems like this sets the « flavor » of culture but not the type. For example todays music is more depressing than 20 years ago because the overall psychology changed, but the music is fundamentally still the same. So it’s a mix of both mood and tech advancement?
dagorenouf··on Culture Is Stuck
Culture often grows with technological advancement. For example, electronics gave us rap music (from samplers), techno, 3D animation, video games. All of those brought in a lot of fresh and new ideas to the table for a couple decades until it stagnated. I’m hopeful that the coming A.I revolution will lead to the next stage of culture.
