Kinda but one-time disabling of notifications on a new app is setting the time on your Casio watch a couple of times a year. Do it once (or very infrequently) and you’re done.

Mine is a Timex Ironman :)

You can turn off the doom scrolling!

Dunno man, Claude had a spec (pretty sure I asked it to consider and outline both options first) or at least clear guidance and decided to YOLO whatever it wanted instead.

It’s always “you’re using the tool wrong, need to tweak this knob or that yadda yadda”.

You don’t need the app itself to get the rotating tickets, the algorithm is pretty dumb and was reverse engineered back in 2024. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40906148

You probably still need a device of some kind though.

lol this one time Claude showed me two options for an implementation of a new feature on existing project, one JavaScript client side and the other Python server side.

I told it to implement the server side one, it said ok, I tabbed away for a while, came to find the js implementation, checking the log Claude said “on second thought I think I’ll do the client side version instead”.

Rarely do I throw an expletive bomb at Claude - this was one such time.

Exactly what “I have to go out of my way to override” covers, from my comment.

Sorry! Is this ok? —

Busted!!!!

Staccato (too may short sentences with periods) is also a telltale for me. Most humans prefer longer sentences with more varied punctuation; I, for example, am a sucker for run-on sentences.

Sure, there are a couple of buttons I can press to stop the video. Why do I have to? Find me one person who likes auto playing videos. The page was created with a deliberate annoying choice that I have to go out of my way to override.

The key insight is to avoid – em dashes. You’re absolutely right. It’s not the content, it’s the style.

> I am stuck there, because the creators are there.

Don’t make this mistake. You are not “stuck” - you’re making a choice. You can also choose to seek other materials elsewhere to stay entertained.

Tell us about the 1% of the time you were wrong!

Excreting power. What an awesome mental image.

“Exerting” would be more correct I guess but less fun.

Maybe part of the point is to support the authors a bit through purchasing the book.

How do you tell a difference between a phone with a camera and a phone with a grenade.

Filming ICE is no longer allowed.

No, they’re being eaten alive by Openclaw usage and need more people on metered billing as opposed to subscription.

EDIT: I guess that means they are indeed running out of cash.

Zero point in measuring camera sizes (or other sizes haha) when JWST is floating there.

45 is still not 20 bucks.

Nice ai-written article but what I missed among all the slop is : where do I get a $20 phone?

EDIT: it’s a lie. At the bottom of the page : Dedicated device: Use a cheap Android phone ($100–200) with a prepaid SIM.

We have a mini in my household and I wouldn’t call it “zero problems”. It’s usable but definitely slower than iOS 18. My iPhone 17 visibly struggles with basic browser UI rendering. I’m not satisfied with iOS 26. Here’s hoping they improve performance in 27.

It me, no way I’m updating to 26 on my 8th gen iPad (5 years old) because it’ll be slowed to a crawl.

Missing /s at the end my dude.

An actual spartan? clicks through out of curiosity ah no, refers to a Michigan State University baseball coach : “The Michigan State Spartans are the athletic teams that represent Michigan State University.”

So drive faster :)

Unless it’s a Karen chasing you and yelling and threatening to call the police on you for some asinine reason?

Likely a rot13-encoded spoiler.

It feels ai-written, for sure. The sentence structure and idioms are very typical of ai writing these days.

The first one i read is README

So was the Nazi regime, and yet…

Deltahedra is awesome. “Like a caveman” is hilarious when uttered by the extremely serious ai-generated voice. At least he writes his own material
