Hi op, great app. What's a rough time and $ estimate for the Claude cost of such a refined outcome, with all those vector assets, animations, options?

This is not advertised on their page, did you make this up?

I believe image classification/analysis by deciders (not just OCR, not everything is about text) is still lacking.

Cloudflare's Clef had fair results on my test, but it's larger and slower. Wondering about Strands.

Unfortunately this seems nauseously US-centric, like most of the genre.

Backside of the panels. This might help you understand why the amount of space used is not at all extravagant. We're spoiled with our disposable, tiny electronics. Those things were meant to last decades.

Thanks. The only thing I wanted to see, which to me is truly a marvelous craft, is the wiring job. Cable management porn anyone?

"Latest tech shit with the occasional gem" (like this post) is a deeply accurate, if not slightly depressing, description of HN.

You know when rivers run not-low? In winter when we need to heat all those freezing homes. Crazy how that works. Yup, it's not ideal in a summer heat wave... but that's precisely when solar can shine.

We need both until we've solved storage. There's no need for more false dichotomies and FUD.

Don't forget about the rest of the world which does not use imperial and have access to plywood stock that is e.g. 18mm birch in metric standard dimensions for the cut sheet. Being able to customize what stock I have access to locally and adjust measurements and cuts automatically, e.g. rounding to cm not quarter inches.

Seeing the amount of complaints in this comment section, I sure start to question the average savvyness of the average HN reader.

Yes, josm is an ugly java tool but this did not prevent me from doing a lot of mapping back in the days.

The bootstrap.css example shows a lot of very random highlighting around numbers (some are blue, others black) and rule names (some are purple, others black).

While the premise is neat (syntaxes and tokenizers are pretty similar, how much diversity can humans possibly come up with??), this does not inspire much confidence in the accuracy.

I'm not sure I get it. This looks like a worse repackage of muscriptor but with a 10s limit, making it useless.

It's funny how people assume Dehian/Ubuntu's ice cold release schedule is the norm, when the rest of us have been enjoying rolling releases and timely, stress-free (easy rollback) updates with NixOS and Arch back in the days. It's been at 10+ years now.

Zopieux — Mon, 17 Aug 2026 21:25:43 +0000

Bad take. This is exactly how I use non-auto-backup Photos: 99% of my shitty smartphone pictures are local only, and I don't care to lose them.

Occasionally though, I want to share or save a photo. Having this (small) button is quite convenient.

What's the status on automatic debloating (non interactive) scripts for Windows these days? With vibe coding I'd expect hundreds of those to exist by now. Something everyone would run after a clean install, to revert, disable or uninstall all the stupid defaults and enshitifications Microsoft added in the past decades.

Anyone can recommend one of those?

Patent was being sarcastic. Everybody heard about (or had the displeasure of seeing) those ads.
