I’m curious if anyone here still actually writes code, in any meaningful amount, because they actually still need to. Excluding reasons like fun / learning.I loved coding in the past, but no matter what I do at this point, I can’t find a reason to anymore that’s actually necessary

Hi, take a look at this. I didn't like KDE nor KDE Themes, so I made Vela, a new stacking desktop environment, and even though this is not very inspired in terms of aesthetic, this is not the point of Vela (not yet). Point of Vela is mostly architecture: Vulkan 1.4 only, no OpenGL fallback; based on wlroots, but has a custom renderer. GPL3 license. Vela is currently at 0.1.0 beta after one...

Hi HN,I kept wiring Ben Eater's 8-bit computer wrong, so I built a realistic virtual breadboard editor.Some of the nice features are side-by-side diff, scope, schematics auto-sync, auto-router (BBRouter stands for breadboard router), and my favorites: upload from the real Arduino IDE and connect to your AI with MCP, let Claude & co build it or help you troubleshoot.The link is the SAP-1...

Based on vermiceli's annotated disassembly of Contra: https://github.com/vermiceli/nes-contra-us. Thanks for the great work.I ported it in two steps. First to C: the game logic is translated routine by routine from the 6502 assembly, and checked frame by frame against the original in the Mesen emulator. Then the C code to WebAssembly so it runs in the browser.The cherry on top: online...

Hello everyone. I’m a mathematician by training, and I love mathematical and logical puzzles and brain-teasers. Inspired by popular games like Sudoku and Wordle, I decided to come up with an engaging game of my own.As it turns out, that’s not so easy! I had a few ideas, but beyond the core mechanics, a game also needs to be interesting and easy to explain — after all, nobody (including me)...
I noticed, the bar showing the usage for the 5h-Limit in the settings/usage modal AND the listing of "5h Limit usage" in Claude Code (/usage) is also vanished.This may be the end of the 5h Limit, which is now vanished or is replaced with "all models weekly usage" and "fable weekly usage" only.I don't like the 5h limit, but now i miss it. Anyone see the same phenomenon?
I’ve lately been struggling with enjoying a perfectly good life when I’m constantly reminded that other people are experiencing extraordinary financial success.And that success feels…strange? I don’t know how to put words to it. Like the monetary values associated are untethered to delivering value?
