I love this mindset and where we're headed with the cost to build so low now. I follow r/MacApps and it's been wild to see the explosion of quality, specialized apps shared there. I have often thought it's because of Cursor, Claude, and other code production accelerators showing up recently.

I am a relentlessly optimistic person and this is the first technology that I've seen that worries me in the decades I've been in the biz.

It's a wonderful breakthrough, nearly indistinguishable from magic, but we're going to have to figure something out – whether that's Universal Basic Income (UBI) or something along those lines, otherwise, the loss of jobs that is coming will lead to societal unrest or worse.

For now

This is such bad form to stereotype an entire diverse nation like this. I'd feel the same way about any other nation on earth.

I had no idea. Thank you!

"The vaccine maker, which has partnered with OpenAI since 2023, is rethinking how it does workforce planning thanks to the growing capabilities of AI and other tech"

You've cracked the case. The illuminati at Hacker News huddle once daily and decide whether to release damaging news about crypto in the hopes of suppressing the price of BTC.

I'm glad you mentioned this. I've heard analogies to the Cultural Revolution a few times in recent weeks and it's spot on.

Defamation suit alleges Meta AI keeps erroneously linking activist to the Jan. 6 riot in Washington, D.C.

They're also applied to law enforcement agencies in the United States.

Same. Reminds me of something Teenage Engineering would produce.

Congrats! The app (and the website) look really polished.

I love your framing of it as a "better stackoverflow." That's so true. However, I feel like some of our complaints about accuracy and hidden bugs are temporary pain (12-36) months before the tools truly become mind-blowing productivity multipliers.

This is great. Thanks for sharing!

Oh wow, thanks!

This might be my ignorance showing, but how do you, as a hiring entity, even verify a candidate has experience in Unit 8200?

It seems as if the past button allows you to view a snapshot of the site on a given day, whereas Dang's bundles are previous instances of the topic/link being discussed on HN.

Assume it's connected to OCLC, the Ohio Library College Center, in Dublin?

I believe the first iPhone did the work of crushing [Canadian] Blackberry's dominance.

What's wild to me is that in the wake of touchscreens asking for tips at places you never thought to tip before, I felt like we in the States were having a national discussion on tipping.

If any portion of tips is declared tax-free, I believe the practice of tipping will be locked into American society forever.

I got a fairly good chuckle seeing Gnome as the most divisive topic, too.

This is fantastic! Excellent work. Congrats on shipping this.

Nice job and congratulations on building this! It looks like your copy is missing a word in the first paragraph:

> Opslane is a tool that helps (make) the on-call experience less stressful.

On top of that, a sizable chunk of Reddit content is ripped from elsewhere, whether videos, images, etc.

Thanks for highlighting the language. I fear it's not being framed as that, though, and there will be another battle in the court of public opinion for the next TikTok.

Why target TikTok only? They should ban any Chinese social media app or network, and that should remain in effect until China agrees to open its domestic audience to Instagram, Google, Facebook, X, etc.

I'd like to nominate this comment for the HN Hall of Fame

Perhaps because it enables behavior that could eventually lead to a victim? Not a perfect answer and it doesn't mesh with how laws typically work, but this isn't a typical situation.

Good insight. I think what might help them a little bit, however, is that the features they're sure to add in the coming weeks are known commodities at other networks, so people will already be aware of the value the features add, such as a timeline that only shows folks you're following.
