zero_··on Ask HN: Why were OpenAI, Claude, and Grok simultaneously down?
and i just stopped procrastinating :)
zero_··on The founder's playbook: Building an AI-native startup
this is well said. and to me this is crazy and sad at the same time.
zero_··on Memory and new controls for ChatGPT
How much do you trust OpenAI with your data? Do you upload files to them? Share personal details with them? Do you trust them, they discard this information if you opt out or use the API?
zero_··on What it was like working for Gitlab
I do not know if your statement holds true. But you shouldn't half-ass a marketing instrument either IMHO.
zero_··on What it was like working for Gitlab
But to be honest I do see the point of the author. Either stop "half-assing" GitLab.com or remove the product (GitLab.com) entirely (and focus only on self-hosting customers (GitLab Enterprise Edition)) might be a better decision in the long run.

But I am sure no one on management level wants to do this decision. So you half-ass a product.

This kind of situation can be frustrating for people working on the product itself (at least when they care). And each new developer that joins the product will probably suggest: "Oh we should care more about scalability." And each senior will be: "yeah yeah, i know..."

zero_··on Ask HN: Do you trust OpenAI, to not train on your data?
I wonder this myself, also with document attachments and multi modal input (e.g. voice). I also wonder how much they really train on the chat history. I have it disabled but maybe I am too cautious and I am missing out on convenience.
zero_··on Twitter API Page
Same.

I don't miss it. I would use Tweetbot again if it becomes available again, but for now I am good. If it is not coming back, I am not going to download the official client.

I am also not interested in Mastodon either.

zero_··on Meta lays off 11,000 people
Does the small EU country you are living in pay FAANG level salaries (200k and more) for their developers? Because in the small central EU country where I live, they always say skilled workers are in demand until you tell them your desired salary ;-)
zero_··on Chime 2.0 – a Go Editor for macOS
At work I run VSCode. At home I try to run Nova. But I do not seem to get used to it and I fall back to VSCode a lot of times. As a "secondary editor" I use TextMate 2.0.

Let's see if Zed is going to be good. Or maybe I should learn neovim.

out of curiosity: still using atom or vscode or switched to something else?
zero_··on Gamedevs not baking in monetization are “fucking idiots”, says Unity CEO
Godot seems to gain popularity. Maybe it has a chance to become the choice for indies.
zero_··on How big tech runs tech projects and the curious absence of Scrum
Reading this thread reminded about "Bullshit Jobs (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bullshit_Jobs)
zero_··on Free and open source 2D and 3D game engine
With your summary in mind, would you say in 2022 one should start with Godot instead of Unity to learn the basics of game dev? Godot to me seems "tidier"
zero_··on Internet addiction and the habit of book reading
Usually this kind of literature are however more similar to university textbooks for which I prefer to read them as PDFs on the iPad as my Kindle tends to mess up the formulas and figures if you get them in an Amazon Ebook format.

Sometimes you get a PDF from Amazon to begin with, for which I find the the Kindle a subpar experience.

zero_··on Show HN: Pluto – macOS system monitor app

zero_··on Lotfi Zadeh has died
Out of curiosity can you elaborate on this?
zero_··on Draw.io releases open source desktop versions
https://www.designer.io not open source though ...
zero_··on Sublime Text 3 dev build 3128 released
It's still in my dock. It feels great on macOS and it is lightweight.
zero_··on The Desk of Haruki Murakami
Maybe the interviews at http://www.freundevonfreunden.com - the website is in english.
