  1. Anyone who disagrees with this, please check the OP's previous comments. That's all the proof you need.

    And then, as an exercise, ask yourself why you were willing to give this comment leniency?

  2. I don't know why more school districts don't force this for essays. It's so straightforward with Google doc editing history too. And yeah, sure, you can get around it if you _really_ want quite trivially, but I imagine it would solve for 99% of students, and force them to actually engage with whatever AI-generated stuff they inevitably type by hand more than they were before.
  3. I've always wished there was a "block comments from this user" feature that didn't rely on vibe-coding my own Chrome extension (and thus not work on Safari where I spent at least 50% of my HN time). I imagine it could even work like Sponsorblock does, and we could crowdsource people who's comments are inflammatory.

    I've also noticed that very obviously LLM-generated comments are called out, and the community tends to agree, but those that have any plausible deniability are given far too much leniency, and people will over-index on the guidelines to give them the benefit of the doubt.

    I don't think a captcha is the solution, as it'll degrade conversation by an OOM though.

  4. Go Hoos good work Wadehra
  5. This is awesome! Very smooth. I love when people build things to solve their own problems. Hope your son and grandfather enjoy the games :)
  6. you could probably write an extension to accomplish this in a couple of days with GPT-5 now
  7. What was the incentive for companies to train juniors into seniors in the past, post job-hopping era? Curious to know if that incentive has warped in the past two decades or so as someone who's starting their career now.
  8. Not a huge believer in belittling an author's points, but the author makes absolutely not one objective point in this entire article. Genuinely every single thing he describes is an opinion, nothing more, nothing less. And those opinions, at that, aren't even very accurate.

    AirPods becoming e-waste? Seriously? Pick a better idea to make your point, because pretty much everyone I know has had their AirPods for 2-3+ years, and even if that was _when_ they decided to move onto another, that's an _incredibly_ long amount of time to have wireless earbuds of those quality at that price point.

    And as for disabling features on the Apple Watch - again, seriously? Most techie, HN'y complaint ever. There's a reason the Apple Watch and AirPods sell as well as they do - people love them.

    As for awe at new features - AirPods live translation, standard iPhones being ProMotion, one of the thinnest phones ever created?

    This is just a terrible opinion piece.

  9. The average man finds the average woman more attractive than the average woman finds the average man. Replace attractive with (eye-catching/attention-grabbing/motivating/retention-boosting).
  10. I don’t disagree, but it does seem to fit squarely in a culture war (and or) political topic.
  11. Cool product, but also crazy to see someone with my name in the wild. Every Raunak I've ever met has the Ronak spelling.
  12. How is this different than Cluely?
  13. MCP maybe? A release notes MCP (maybe into ReadTheDocs or pypi) that understands upgrade instructions for every package.
  14. Don't be intentionally obtuse - even for people living in a place with public transport as encompassing as say NYC, you _need_ some form of ride-sharing service eventually in day-to-day life. Being banned from the duopoly of ride-share services is a life-altering thing to happen.
  15. I'd love to do this one day! Curious - after reading, the part about wildlife scares me. Did you ever run into genuinely worrying situations with wildlife? Hearing about Black widow spiders alone makes me want to only do this with a van following behind me to sleep in at night!
  16. Does anything like this exist for just flying around cities (not SF, anywhere) in general? Would love to experience what a drone sees even if it's in a limited area.
  17. Has anyone who evolved from a baseline of just using Cursor chat and freestyling to a proper workflow like this got any anecdata to share on noticeable improvements?

    Does the time invested into the planning benefit you? Have you noticed less hallucinations? Have you saved time overall?

    I’d be curious to hear because my current workflow is basically

    1. Have idea

    2. create-next-app + ShadCN + TailwindUI boilerplate

    3. Cursor Composer on agent mode with Superwispr voice transcription

    I’m gonna try the author’s workflow regardless, but would love to hear others opinions.

  18. Quick little project I hacked together this morning! Please check it out at your convenience :)
  19. It is impossible to deny that DJT appears to be far younger than he really is, and at the very least, his energy and character are much more striking as youthful than any of the Democrat leadership (Biden, Pelosi, the other geriatrics). There's a reason we have dozens of quotable moments from Trump and like three max from Biden.
  20. Are you still in touch with Casey? I’ve watched him for 10+ years now so always fascinating to hear about his work.
  21. Not everything is racism. This is xenophobia. Using words incorrectly takes away their meaning.
