imhoguy··on Show HN: iPhone app takes simultaneous images from 2 lenses, fuses into 1 photo
Same. I guess the effect is weaker on the phone screen where an image is already downsized.
imhoguy··on LinkedIn CringeBot 3000
Permalinks to generated content would make it even more viral. I don't want to post to LI/X, just share to friends without copy-pasting.
imhoguy··on Illinois just passed a law that puts Linux on the hook for age verification
Or it will have some new TPM/SecureBoot guard rails to not let minors install unapproved systems. Think of children again ;)
imhoguy··on My server is a phone now
If your phone supports being USB host you can try USB splitter dongle and attach external SSD drive to it.

Also if your phone has SD card slot you can try "industrial" SD cards. They are small in capacity but ideal for write load.

imhoguy··on What happens if an entire class of workers loses faith in their careers
There is article from the same site that the next US election will be about AI and how to compensate diminishing labour market https://www.noemamag.com/the-next-us-presidential-election-w...
imhoguy··on Making Postgres 300x faster for analytics: batching, operator fusion, and SIMD
Does that license protect anything legally? This is written by AI under some initial guidance. Prompts may be protected but the output of unlicensed knowledge model corpus?
imhoguy··on AMD acquires Taalas to boost inference performance by etching models in silicon
WiFi is fine for notification although Bluetooth would be enough to not get forgotten cloths stuck there for days.

But why it calls home and why we have to create accounts to just get a notification.

imhoguy··on Taste Is All That's Left
Because let's admit it, later it was a taste of one guy who got another "chance" or the company got a "chance" to be lead by him. Now as he is gone the company still carries that taste legacy with better or worse results.
imhoguy··on Xbox goes down. You can't play games you own on disc
I believe there will be still data horders alive who will have a running copy of any game you want. Until the Sun burns the Earth.

Greetings to /r/datahorder bunch :)

imhoguy··on LLMs reward expertise
As decades-exp SWE I love using Claude Design for any kind of app and web development, because it gives much faster visual feedback loop than changing views within deep framework stack. It much easier to "tell" coding agent what I need instead of writing wall of prose to define visual stuff.

I reminds me old WYSIWYG and unlike Figma it has full HTML/CSS capabilities available.

How I work with it:

- I ask agent to extract part of app into Design, let it even use playwright-cli to get full rendering of the particular view.

- perform design session in Design.

- once design system is perfected I go down to Claude Code dungeons, do /design-sync.

- perform on the stack implementation session.

Actually you don't need Claude Design UI for any of that too. Just ask any coding agent to prepare local mock HTMLs and iterate over them.

imhoguy··on How to Exist
I noticed the more I do nothing (and think nothing) the more my tinnitus lessens. I think mine has something to do with permanent neck muscle tension, the result of everyday rush and stress.
imhoguy··on Delayed Gratification – Proud to Be 'Last to Breaking News'
epub is ZIP with HTML+CSS+images+some metadata.
imhoguy··on AI companies are shredding rare books
And knowledge from these books can be "imprinted" into a model to be used by much more people or even survive this planet once sent into space in a probe.
imhoguy··on Ask HN: Are you using Rust on embedded devices yet? If not, why?
EU CRA may change the landscape of embedded consumer devices. Rust memory safety may benefit here.

imhoguy··on Kill The Cookie Banner
And guess who makes the most of devices and the most popular browser, I already see post install "Get most of the browsing experience by agreeing to these defaults."
imhoguy··on How My Images Are Dithered
Up! Very cool site, creative, slopless and with that 90/00s vibe I miss :)
imhoguy··on Nvidia, Microsoft, Meta warn against overregulating open-weight models
It will be like DeCSS. Now imagine models (links) in QR code spread around, or steganographied in BluRay MKVs. So much creative disobedience.
imhoguy··on Kimi K3 exploited the latest Redis server
No, CRA doesn't cover SaaS services or open-source software, unless it is part of product (e.g. router). So it wouldn't apply here.
imhoguy··on Ten Steps Towards Happiness (2015)
or being on ADHD spectrum, forget reading with distactions.
imhoguy··on Ten Steps Towards Happiness (2015)
From my own experience, it is about lowering expectations, not detachement. World is full of things and processes I can't control, experiencing them without expectations gives me peace and joy, and I attach to them then in such blissful state.
imhoguy··on Qwen-Image-3.0: Rich Content, Authentic Details, Deep Knowledge
This will push us even more to go outside and visit actual shops. Becouse thanks to AI we will have more time? Will we?
imhoguy··on Terence McKenna's Mega Bad Trip (2025)
For some a tent in a forest is enough, others need luxury hotels next to the forest.
imhoguy··on Goodbye, and Thanks for All the Bikesheds
It is already happening. E.g. soon F-Droid and any unattested open source Android app distribution will be gone, due in Sep 2026.

Same with GitHub and similar, we have CLAs for a while now for licensing. But I see project maintainers are frustrated with AI generated slop PRs and bad actor contributions. The ecosystem will be closing. You will be able to read code, but forget creating PR without some ID verification (because this is for kids or against terrorism).

imhoguy··on Why do AI company logos look like buttholes? (2025)
Yeah, after recent Samsung One UI and Google icons change...hm.

imhoguy··on AWS: Inaccurate Estimated Billing Data – $1.7 billion
This is why traditional bare metal and VPS rental wins for any kind of private or small business use.
imhoguy··on Open-source memory for coding agents, synced over SSH
I just wonder how do you filter out signal from noise - does it self correct wrong memories?
imhoguy··on Briar is in maintenance mode
Briar will thrive once EU Chat Control 2.0 passes, P2P E2E encryption is the only way to bypass bullshit laws.
imhoguy··on Ask HN: Should I Promote My SaaS to get first 100 Customers without budget
What still works, but ofc depends on what you've made, is to reduce signup friction to minimum or skip it if you don't need user info. Then ensure the data you produce is easily shareable and by the network effect your users can market your service. To bootstrap initial spark you need to share these links yourself in communities which would be interested in your data. Please don't spam. Obviously converting freeloaders into customers is another book to learn.
imhoguy··on Telegram Serverless
Clever idea! Although after reading it briefly I see a need for secrets storage.

I've made one Telegram bot hosted on VPS with Docker and cloud LLM. It also interacts with a few other outside services and all credentials are injected via env vars now.

Should I push them as `.env` file for Telegram serverless?
