Re:Prevent cognitive debt by manually retyping LLM-generated code

The key is, as you said, practice. I think it's fine to use AI to write code for you, as long as you occasionally force yourself to write code manually. Not only does it help you retain your skills, but it feels more satisfying than prompting, even if arduous.

This looks to not be an openly available model, but I think if it were, availability of an easy single-camera navigation setup could allow for a lot of cool hobbyist projects.
Re:Raspberry Pi 5 – 16 GB, $350

The Pi Zero 2W is great, but data I/O (WiFi, USB, and micro SD) do limit use cases slightly. For most use cases, I doubt this is an issue, but it is something to keep in mind if you want to run bandwidth-constrained services on it. For $15, I don't think that's an issue, but it is unfortunate.

Out of curiosity, do you have anything running on port 8000? Maybe it's not gracefully handling a port collision.

While I agree with you, I think it's important to note that MacOS does swap to disk quite often, even on 16 GB. While it's rarely noticeable due to how fast the internal SSDs are, it still leads to some degree of SSD wear (and disk i/o usage) that could be avoided with additional RAM. I can't imagine this leading to drive failure considering how long the lifespans of SSDs are though.
Re:Slack CLI for Agents (OSS)

From my perspective, this also marks the shift towards agent skills instead of MCP, since agent skills rely on CLI tools. To me, this is also better than MCP since third-party developers can easily reuse existing APIs and libraries instead of needing official MCP support.

SilverBullet is an awesome piece of software. I still run it, and used to use it quite a bit a year or so ago. I've mostly switched to pen-and-paper, but if you have some spare time and want a simple, customizable note taking app, I highly suggest trying it out. I will say, don't skip the tutorial; it's pretty helpful.

I feel like the default behavior should be to not write unless changes have been made. I may be misunderstanding here, but what would be getting written if nothing's been changed?
Re:Getting free internet on a cruise, saving $170

My job is mostly just working on open source software, which I enjoy and would be doing anyway. I actually haven't worked on it yet on the cruise, but thought it would be nice to sit by a window and code. Even my development database requires internet access, so offline coding really isn't an option.

To be fair, I was trying to be humorous with that phrasing.

Thanks! My thought process was that realistically, a negligible amount of people will even attempt this. Also, there will always be a way to bypass internet restrictions.
I will say, it would be kind of cool if this post gets big enough that someone from the cruise line sees it and actually feels that they need to put in the time to patch it.

Just want to clarify that my intent was not to say that internet is essential. However, I do need internet access for my job and in general, it's nice to be able to keep in touch with friends.

I'm a high schooler who has been working at The Hack Foundation (Hack Club) for the past four months building a hackathon peer-judging platform from scratch. Last weekend, it was deployed at a flagship hackathon. These are the projects that were made by attendees.
Next weekend, it will be deployed in over 100 cities globally with an estimated 3000 users for Hack Club's Scrapyard.
Show HN: Profiles – personal landing pages built with Markdown
I imagine many people on HN have their own websites. However, most people do not. Rather, many have social media profiles they use as a landing page of sorts.Social media platforms can be bloated for this purpose. Profiles is a project that aims to allow you to setup a personal landing page in minutes and gives you a unique, short URL with your username that you can share.Github repo:...
