I was really nervous about the update to Liquid Glass based on comments like this but my experience has been really positive. I love the new contextual tooltip menu when I try to select text and other thoughtful details. Maybe there’s things I’m not bumping into?

I'm curious about how the costs compare using something like this where you're hitting api's directly vs my $20 ChatGPT plan which includes Codex.

This is such a great response. It leaves me wishing I could delete my comment. A.I. told me there was a 2020 match between Lakers and Globetrotters which the Lakers won. Turns out it was a fictional match. I've had great success with mob programming so that's where my brain was at.

I would argue the opposite. If your collaboration sucks IMHO you haven’t done enough. It’s a skill. Imagine you’re playing a team sport and you recommended people play together less to win more games. Now look up Globetrotters vs Lakers.

What a cool demonstration. My automatic response was “red” for traffic light. Although, a different part of my brain re-evaluated given the context. The question in my mind now, is the auto response a building block to the latter or is that orchestration a fully separate system?

Is this hosted as a free service anywhere? The thing all my friends in NYC are using is Partiful. It’s free and I don’t have to host.

One impact I’ve seen is small businesses who can no longer afford the tools/supplies they need, which aren’t manufactured in the states, so they are forced to increase their prices on good they sell or go out of business.

If I were to pick a place to tax, the addictive, harmful substances seem like a good option. But that’s easy for me to say because I don’t smoke. I do like sugar though. Imagine the impact on our health if there were a sugar tax.

It sounds like parent comment is suggesting that hn attracts a demographic of people who look down on the poor and fetishize wealth, not that it's suppressing posts or trying to influence comments.

Wish I could see this! My iPhone 16 blocked viewing because of, I think, expired certificate. At least, that’s the error I think I got initially and now it just says the page belongs to a category that is blocked. :(

Wasn’t seeing what OCR stands for, I believe it’s Optical Character Recognition.

New comment by bryzaguy in "If not React, then what?"

bryzaguy — Sun, 01 Dec 2024 05:27:43 +0000

I worked at New Relic and focused specifically on improving page load performance for one of the products using our RUM data. Even after combining/parallelizing API calls then embedding the data into the page, I found there was still an average 3-6 second average page load cost using React vs an already rendered HTML page which was nearly instant. Not huge but frustrating to discover the constraint when it was my task to improve it and our company was trying to be an example of great performance.

I thought they could be recycled but at the moment it’s cheaper to mine. Is that not true?

It is. I think their point is “10x fewer” makes sense if you imagine going from a denominator of 20 to 200.

Have you read it? I felt like it goes both directions. As someone more in the Swift camp, I was learning about C++ too.
