lateatdesk··on Show HN: Die With Me – Claude and Codex rate limits as AIM away messages
How are you getting the first group together? Between the Mac requirement, invites and people needing to be low on tokens at roughly the same time, it seems quite easy for interested people to keep missing each other.
lateatdesk··on Show HN: I built a new version of my fun spatial 3D online meeting app
But what if half the group just wants to chat? I can see this working with a few people kicking a ball around while everyone else talks :)
lateatdesk··on Rate limits on GitLab.com are changing
60 requests an hour per IP seems low for a school or office network. A few people browsing issues and source files could use that up quite fast.
lateatdesk··on The American Religion of Self-Storage Facilities
Even without the sentimental part, cancelling means sorting everything out and finding people to take it away.
lateatdesk··on Japan's book scene is moving from bookstores to libraries
Found a 2015 statement from Takeo explaining that planned spending on books had been cut by more than half to pay for safety work on the shelving, and CCC also acknowledged that it should have chosen the books more carefully.
lateatdesk··on I'm not addicted to the internet or my smartphone. I'm addicted to information
I think he misses the old forums where he'd just drop in to see what people were talking about. Not necessarily looking for an answer to something. Actually, he didn't need a recommendation feed to find a thread worth reading. But I do agree with you: books always win.
lateatdesk··on Cartesian – AI 3D Modeling for Design
Couldn't agree more. The first thing we get ends up setting the direction before we've even figured out what we want.
lateatdesk··on Show HN: Capsule – Single-file web apps that save their data into SQLite
Or the copies can go their own way. I could send someone an itinerary and they could change the dates or drop half the stops and add their own notes without needing to send an updated copy. Getting them to install another app just to open it might be a problem, especially if they only want to use it once.
lateatdesk··on Most people prefer traditional architecture
But how much say do those people have in what gets built? I can rent a flat because it's close to work without liking the building at all.
lateatdesk··on Chopping up books when they're physically too big
I don't think cutting it up means he doesn't care about the book when he's going to the trouble of rebinding the pieces so he can keep reading on paper.
lateatdesk··on Let's make quality the norm again
I think we're asking too much of buyers here. You shouldn't need to learn about fabrics and stitching, then check who owns the brand now, just to buy a shirt that lasts.
lateatdesk··on Show HN: An e-ink frame that hears birds and draws them as 1800s illustrations
If you try it with her, I'd love to hear what she makes of it.
lateatdesk··on I'm not addicted to the internet or my smartphone. I'm addicted to information
I'm not sure there's always a more efficient way to find that same information. If you already have a question, sure, you can look for an answer. Sometimes you stumble across a post about something you hadn't even thought to look into, though. I think that's part of what he's talking about when he mentions finding things that changed his life.
lateatdesk··on Show HN: Neobrutalism.dev – Just added Base UI support and added new color theme
I think I could use those charts and still give my site its own look. I get the Bootstrap comparison though.
lateatdesk··on Show HN: I made a flight simulator, except you're just a passenger
I like how much work you've put into just being a passenger :) I'm building a little world in the browser myself, so I like finding projects like this.
