This is so cool! I'm super interested in checking it out, as an avid writer&reader

Oof

Isn't English a Germanic language though?
Re:Ask HN: Why I rarely see game dev startup here? on Tuesday November 04, 2025 @11:27AM (#45812769)
How applicable are AI pipelines to game dev? A few months ago, I worked on an iPad game (Unity) and found that AI tools were pretty bad and unhelpful. The other dev didn't use AI at all

Re:Why it's OK not to reply to your text messages right away on Tuesday November 04, 2025 @11:11AM (#45812595)
I see lots of people online say they feel pressured to respond right away, but I've found that for my friends it's simply not the case...? There are some that respond very quickly, but most of them respond very slowly. They're really friendly when we see each other in person, but will take days to respond.

Hi all! I'm a CS undergrad senior, graduating this December. I have internship experience at two companies and have completed multiple personal projects. I also completed a practicum term where my team worked directly with a client team to fulfil their needs. My experience largely lies in web development, but I have also worked on desktop and mobile projects before.

I'm looking for any entry-level full-time software engineering position. I'm happy to talk to anyone interested!

Ads on the picture gallery is insane. How is this even allowed?

Really cool stuff! Any interesting challenges the team ran into while developing it?

Not sure why this is downvoted, plenty of Canadians are very vocal and public with their criticism of Israel. There are protests regularly happening on the streets.

One of my favourite internet things is seeing other channels, for instance Reducible (https://www.youtube.com/@Reducible) use the framework. Everyone has their own special take on it, and it's so awesome that Grant made it OS!

Re:Sora 2 on Wednesday October 01, 2025 @02:39PM (#45441495)
Their anime vid gen is really, really impressive. The results I've seen aren't /good/ from an industry-standard (nothing compared to the likes of the Demon Slayer movie I watched in theatres recently), but I legitimately couldn't tell that it was AI-generated. Massive step up from Sora 1 and other vid gen models.

Here's to hoping that the industry will adapt to have it aid animators for in-betweening and other things that supplement production. Anime studios are infamously terrible with overworking their employees, so I legitimately see benefits coming from this tool if devs can get it to function as proper frame interpolation (where animators do the keyframes themselves and the model in-betweens).

After checking the links I can confirm that they are the same. I stumbled upon this on my dash and was like "oh my God this is the funniest thing ever" and it's so nice to find the actual original source! Thanks for the heads up!

Ask HN: SciFi Recommendations

Any scifi recommendations? I'm specifically looking for works that do something interesting with fictional technology (which is the point of this genre, but I've seen a lot that just slap on aliens and call it a day). I have no preference for hard/soft and any medium is fine.

Re:Is Gen Z Unemployable? on Thursday September 25, 2025 @01:14PM (#45375720)
Gen Z junior dev here - I haven't actually worked with anyone my age professionally, so I can't comment on that, but I will say most of my peers who are still unemployed or students seem pretty pessimistic about the job market right now and are looking pretty earnestly for positions, ie they'll take whatever is offered and have applied to many places (people have told me 500+)

How exactly do you reach out to connections? Is a LinkedIn DM saying something like "hey, do you know of any job opportunities/got anything for me?" too blunt?
