sure yeah, this is for non-technical crowd as well, they can just paste a doc and find out if it has an answer to their question.

it would say it isn't able to find a match in any of the passages for your question.

yeah, that's my main use case as well. Just wanted to view the answer (if it exists) to the question without an AI summarizing it.
Re:Taproot – web interface for editing data in your ATProto PDS manually on Saturday October 11, 2025 @01:24PM (#45550936)
yeah that was one of the articles that got me curious about atproto. very clever hack.

like the article mentions, blobs are little different in the sense that they can't be independently added to the PDS. there needs to be a another record created right after the blob upload that references it. Otherwise the blob gets deleted. https://atproto.com/specs/blob#blob-lifecycle

sounds like an interesting feature to add, will check on how feasible it is (along with some possible guardrails to not abuse the system). thanks for the suggestion!

hey greg, no problem. Definitely looking forward for the next show. Maybe in a new city? Or a different theme altogether?
Re:Crowd Sourcing Broken QR Codes on Sunday May 11, 2025 @01:01PM (#43955119)
I participated in the QR Show in NYC mentioned in the post. It sent me down a rabbit hole and gave me a whole new perspective on QR codes now.

Re:Show HN: Printercow – Turn any thermal printer into an API endpoint on Tuesday January 21, 2025 @10:58PM (#42788830)
Yeah Rongta brands are the ones that come up frequently when I search on Amazon. Will check them out. Thanks.
Re:Show HN: Printercow – Turn any thermal printer into an API endpoint on Tuesday January 21, 2025 @10:52PM (#42788783)
Thanks for checking on this. Will look into this model.
Re:Show HN: Printercow – Turn any thermal printer into an API endpoint on Tuesday January 21, 2025 @08:29PM (#42787603)
This is nice! Was looking for exactly a similar feature in a previous HN discussion [0]. Want something that I can integrate with IFTTT/Zapier.

I was looking to buy one of ESC/POS compatible printer but none of the official sites seem to sell directly on the site and have to contact their sales to get a quote. I see a few on ebay and from third party sellers in Amazon.

Does anyone have a recommendation on where to buy an official / new one without going through the sales call hassle? Or buying from 3rd parties is the only option?
