I was thinking about how AI has changed the way we contribute to open source. If everything were free, would we end up creating better or worse software overall? Would fragmentation be too high to be able to distribute anything?

For things other than coding
Stargazer = who starred a repo
The logo shape of the platform is a very niche touch, kudos
Nobody is forcing me to use Google search, regardless of all the browser and search engine selection clown show, so much wasted money and time for nonexisting problem
If quality is the metric, nobody would use something like that, seems like a micromanagement tool
Feedback loop alone to validate hypothesis, even if you throw away all the code and decide to write by hand is a terrific value proposition.
I believe it’s only possible to truly appreciate that after doing it for a while with trial and error, without external opinions
That's the signal in the noise I open HN for, thanks for sharing!
I have nightmares of these, I’ll gladly pay someone else to do it next time
Different implementation details have different way to rank or “forget” or supersede facts but that’s pretty much it
One of the pivotal moments in my career has been when I used Emacs just enough to truly understand what "Emacs is an operating system" means, not just as a joke but as something I could believe in

iPhone pro max, fits nicely even with a cover, i also have a x3 but slightly prefer the bigger screen of x4’s but portability on is the read deal
Just seeing it act as a trigger to read for me, especially when book cover as standby background
been using on the back of my phone for a few months, my most satisfying hardware purchase in a long time
Love the idea, learning a lot of interesting things about node hooks by reading docs and some code
Even on mobile is very pleasing good job!
I’d rather ask my butcher than Haiku for coding tasks
The amount of cargo-culting around AI tooling and practices is so weird to me.
Why not just try and see? The fast feedback loop allow testing all kind of weird theories in a matter of 30m-1h during normal working sessions, most results are obvious
I believe is just an impression given “Anti somethings” people are usually more vocal and likely to comment on the topic
Major API changes in things like Svelte have shown that this is actually not as true as we expected it to be.
Simon Willison has an good post about it
I’ve surely spent more time modding PSP than playing games. Zero regrets
I just wish I started getting into software earlier, at that time it felt something super hard for “A beautiful mind” people
