Of course it would. Supply and demand. Some companies would decide not to bother. Others would decide it was worthwhile. The limited pool of supply (app developers) would be distributed across demand.

What do you think is special about Carbon? It looks indistinguishable from any other design system to me.

Are ya'll really repairing your phones? I replace mine when it can't run Google Maps smoothly anymore.

After 4-5 years, on every phone I've ever had, user interactions begin to lag noticeably. Apps launch much more slowly. Intense graphical apps like maps become frustrating to use. At some point I can't take it anymore and replace the phone, long before its physical parts or battery have worn out.

...minutes?

https://overtype.dev/ exists to let you do exactly this (for markdown). There’s also https://codemirror.net/ which is like Monaco but more lightweight.

This is the magic of Progressive Web Apps. PWAs support the File Handler api to register themselves as the handler for certain file types.

I also just discovered OverType.dev which is a library for exactly this purpose. I might jettison my editor and just use OverType!

What percentage of your time is spent cruising at highway speed? Presumably that one GPu would be saturated all the time.

No syntax highlighting in the editor? I vibecoded a pretty robust browser Filesystem API based markdown editor myself too last week. Recommend either rolling your own with a transparent textbox layered approach or just using Monaco or https://codemirror.net/.

I did a markdown kanban thing. Filesystem API is very cool and underused. https://github.com/subdavis/mdello/

I was wondering if someone would mention this. I grew up in the Blue Ridge Mountains of NC and heard this all my life. Once had a camp councilor who would inspect every twig to make sure there was none burned.

I also burned Rhododendron wood in campfires and brush fires more times than I can count without any adverse effects that I know of. My back yard was completely overgrown with the stuff. I’m sure the smoke inhalation of any fire is worse for you than anything specific about rhododendrons.

My first thought as well!

Thanks for taking the time to leave this comment. Bookmarked your message for… much later.

I came back to this thread today. Thank you for the kind words, this was lovely to read.

I want to offer up a point for reasonable debate here: Suppose you are against new data center construction as a (clumsy) policy lever to regulate the pace of AI progress and harms.

Do the facts matter? If the water issue is “fake” or overblown, but it’s resonating with voters who are packing town halls and ultimately effecting the change you want (a broad slowdown in the construction of new compute) is that a problem? Congress isn’t going to get off its ass. There is momentum here. Who actually cares if people are making misinformed choices if the outcome is correct? Isn’t this how literally all politics works?

(If you think the outcome is not correct, that’s a different debate entirely.)

I think water usage due to increased electricity demand is a perfectly reasonable measure.

I’d be fine seeing that compared to the water used by the rest of the normal electricity generation baseline I use.

I hope to have my first child soon; I am fucking terrified.

There is good discussion on the previous thread from 6 days ago: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49068738

You’ll certainly enjoy the “Not an Engineer” channel: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YFJJkZm796I

The standard governing this is UL 1741 in the US or VDE-AR-N 4105 in the EU. both require certified inverters to detect grid loss and immediately cut off.

I was not aware of auto mode in Claude. In fact, it looks like Claude had it before cursor. Cursor has workspace scoping in a way that Claude does not seem to, but my comment above is mostly moot.

I'm surprised that their biggest feature has not been mentioned: The permissions model is much less noisy in Cursor.

Every 30 seconds in claude you get a new, elaborate, contrived bash command that claude wants to run. It's some combination of 10 things you've already granted permission for, but this one is new!

Cursor's auto-review run mode fixes that https://cursor.com/docs/agent/security/run-modes

I know it's a compromise in security, but auto-review+sandboxing provides a much nicer out-of-the-box experience. I'm happily using Cursor + Composer 2.5/Opus for most tasks.

I generally want a posts/day count on any feed I subscribe to. Many of these are content mills with 20+ posts per day I have no intention in sifting through.

Takes me back to undergrad. Neat!

Quinn (Blondihacks) on youtube is a model engineer machinist and has, IMO, the most outsider-watchable content on building boilers and steam engines like this.

Highly recommend this primer titled "The Model Engineering Learning Curve" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ps_BQJEMnGA

She's been building a model locomotive for years now, there are over 100 videos: https://www.youtube.com/watch?list=PLY67-4BrEae-xhrvZX33gPk4...

One more: a little engine I'd never encountered before called a wobbler is, apparently, the hello world of machining model engines: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HrHDrIms7-0

My umami instance handles a modest 1-2K events per day but does so on 150MB of memory and approximately no cpu. I switched from plausible, which might have been fine except clickhouse requires like 4 different containers and idles using 4+ GB. I am very happy with never needing to even think about umami.

This account has made multiple posts per day since joining 30 days ago and never bothered commenting on anything. Does not seem like a human behind the keyboard here.

Oof, front fork is wrecked. Pelican should be wearing a helmet on that death trap.

Casual, totally unnecessary prejudice against rural people to make your point.

This is a wild take. Most serious media companies would collapse without online ad revenue. Google would be dead, along with all the products that sorta run the world like maps. But even local publications, like your independent city news site, which you presumably think is good, also die instantly.

The ladder is also pulled up behind any kind of independent quality content producers. You cant run a successful channel without dedicated paid subscribers, and you can't build a dedicated subscriber base without years of work and supplementing your income with ads, so basically everything with an online audience also dies.

I will be using this to design local event posters.

Edit: I bought a copy and I'm having a blast!
