Apple is simply repeating Samsung, Google and the other companies with their Duo model. Nothing revolutional, nothing "one more thing amazing". Another heavy and clunky foldable phone. I bet that folding durability will disappoint the users after all.
Yeah, it makes you wonder how much computing power the industry has wasted over the years on tools that nobody questioned because "that's just how long builds take." We planned our work around it, joked about creating breaks, and built entire caching layers to work around it.
Kudos to the Vite maintainers!
I was also thinking between these two. Still see the diffrence: I guess "critical path" is single, bottlenecks are multiple.

I want to keep track of when people talk about our products online. This includes forums, social media, blogs, and news sites. I feel we are missing out on opportunities to talk with customers and deal with their problems because we find out about them too late (or not at all). For people who are always checking how many times their brand is mentioned online:- Which service do you use?- How...

Hey HN! I'm the CTO at Atola Technology, and we have launched MultiDrive: a free disk backup/clone/wipe tool that does things differently.After 17 years of work with drives, I got tired of seeing simple disk operations locked behind paywalls. Macrium killed their free version, EaseUS hides cloning in paid tiers, and so on and so forth. Another reason is that all the existing solutions are...
Awesome stuff!
It would also be nice to add Opus Spicatum method when tiles are set at angles to form a “herringbone” zigzag pattern. It should be quite easy to implement:

Excuse me, I can't help but cite this one wonderful song:
"When everything's made to be broken, I just want you to know who I am" (c) Iris by Goo Goo Dolls
I feel it touches on something deep that has to do with the current state of the tech world.
Are there any known commercial use cases?
I'd like to know how you intend to handle the infrastructure costs of providing this for free.
Also, how do you see the future of disposable email services as companies get better at detecting them?
He may easily cancel it in two weeks. With Trump, it's almost unpredictable how things will go.
Thanks a lot for sharing! A great food for thoughts. And yeah, I definitely don't want to build a custom solution - it should be max reliable and fast enough.

I'm thinking about setting up a MiniNAS for our small development team. Mainly, for local storage of large artifacts and development builds.I would love to hear about your real experiences with these compact NAS solutions. Any unexpected issues or limitations you discovered after you have started using one of them?
Same story with me. It says for both Workspace and Personal accounts that they are Workspace.
Have you managed to overcome that?
You can also consider self-publishing taking into account the modern AI capabilities. Why don't try it, including Korean language, maybe with the final review by a human?
Here is the experience of Jurgen Appelo with his new book who decided to self-publish it:

Prior to this one, Jurgen had written around 8 books using the traditional publishing approach.

Funnily enough, a lot in Liquid Glass is inspired by older design systems from Microsoft : Fluent Design (Win 11) and Windows Aero (Win 7). It shows how real tough it is now to come with something really new these days in design.
Consider changing the name. Destiny is a strong gaming brand, but it's also generic. It will be extremely difficult to build a new brand and stand out.
It might be better to choose a name that works well with Wormhole. Check Google and the App Store to make sure there is no powerful brand with the new name.
Thanks for sharing your experience!

Have you had a chance to try out the latest version of Codex? How does it compare with Claude Code, which I am currently using extensively?
Actually, it's a small victory for Rust fans :)
Looks nice. It's just super insecure to use browser extensions which is very limiting for distribution
You mean non-commercial open source, right? Well, perhaps... I can't say with certainty because I was never involved in one.
At some point, I also learned that code quality does not really matter. Product quality has an impact, but not code quality. With AI, it will likely matter even less because code quantity dramatically increases at the expense of quality.
How much time/money would you save then?
1. What about the concept of minimum loveable products (MLP) versus minimum viable products (MVP)? They say go for MLP and that with MVP, your chances are much lower due to the excessive product and information noise.
Have you ever felt tempted to drop your main job because your side project was growing?

Everyone’s had a project that failed —startup, side project, or ignored feature.
What was your recent failure, and what's your take away? Not just "validate early," but some insights that changed your approach. Curious to hear and learn from your experiences.
File names were limited to just 14 characters - UNIX file system called as "Version 6 filesystem". Directory entries, for instance, consisted of:
- 2 bytes for the inode number
- 14 bytes for the filename
After that, the next file systems went up to 255 characters.
