this is higher quality than i expected given the very ai design

might be worth trying to tweak to look less like the default ai theme

cute overall tho!

Re:How Bluesky draws its logo on screenshots on Monday August 17, 2026 @07:50PM (#49339278)
Tangentially, I see a lot of people here upset that apps can react to your screenshot before it is captured. I think it is helpful to think about it as a tradeoff between freedoms:

(a) the freedom to screenshot any content on your own device (b) the freedom to share content with others that cannot be screenshotted

It can be annoying when DRM or privacy features block a screenshot, but I think it can also benefit the platform ecosystem that you participate in as a user too. Idk!

when naming the protocol part of a url, obviously you don't want to pick something so verbose, but that doesn't mean you gotta pick an acronym. could be hyper:// or smth. not saying it should be, just saying there are other ways that a more verbose concept can be shorted for certain contexts
Modern Swift borrows a lot from Rust! And it also has its own benefits, both ergonomic and also supporting eg generic in dynamic libraries

some quick feedback on the user interface:

- i pressed "Amino Acids", and nothing updated below the toolbar. can't figure out what it does

- the "Tools" buttons looks like a segmented picker, but both seem to actually initiate a modal presentation

this tool seems interesting, but it would be worth polishing some of these ui quirks because my first impression was that it seems a bit broken (or confused me)!

but seems like a cool project otherwise, love people building and sharing explainers as they learn stuff!

If there are rate limits, or if the search space is vast, this is notably more limited (even if arguably still enumeration)
is it actually free? or are we collectively paying for it by allowing the big business to gain control of an otherwise competitive market and jack up prices

individuals are not pricing that in. coordination is needed. that's why we regulate the market

it's not a great market for consumers if we allow big business to undercut pricing and kill competition

government should help us coordinate to prevent this Nash equilibria

Re:First Class Contexts – Rye Language on Wednesday June 26, 2024 @01:10AM (#40796611)
It's hard for me to tease apart the differences between Rye "first class context", deprecated JS "with" statement, Scala/Idris/Agda implicit arguments, and I guess also just effect systems generally?

it feels like there're all features for ergonomic dependency injection, but maybe that's a lot of programming

This applies to usernames too! It's easy to phish if platforms render capital I and lowercase l the same

Yeah, the price difference between this and Teenage Engineering's own products is wild! It's worth noting the Playdate (by Panic) is designed by Teenage Engineering and also just $200. https://shop.play.date

I'll admit the device is very cute, but without a solution to prompt injection, you'd be a fool to give this access to your accounts.

It's not so bad if you think of this as pipelining. I definitely agree some intermediates ought to be named though.

I do think it's true that Caltech students are all very passionate about STEM, so the average family wealth is less apparent.

"The fall in diagnoses among gay and bisexual men is a result of the growing availability of HIV prevention pill PrEP and targeted promotion of routine HIV testing followed by the rapid initiation of HIV treatment for those diagnosed, meaning they are more quickly virally suppressed and cannot pass on HIV."

Sexually active gay men generally take PrEP.
