You’re reasoning from a presumption that ‘people’ _should_ all work 9-5. Why should they, and their customers, have the same working hours?

Signed software. Not approved software. Mac apps can be installed after being downloaded from the web.

And as if Apple would ever block/pull/disapprove the world’s most popular browser.

> There’s also a silver lining to the tight memory envelope: Apple has to keep macOS running well within 8GB, which is actually a nice forcing function against bloat and inefficiency. We could all use a little more of that.

Love this

Yep. For me it was a perfect gift to replace moms 10+ year old Intel based MacBook Air.

FWIW I use Apple's default Mail apps w/ FastMail IMAP and don't have issues with search.

But I guess you mean search w/o local caching

I'll never understand why people insist on using web based email.

Just install your favorite desktop + mobile mail apps and you're fine.

If that can't be done with Protonmail, and you want to move your email out of the US, suggest FastMail, based in Australia.

New comment by jorisw in "Launch HN: Voker (YC S24) – Analytics for AI Agents"

jorisw — Wed, 13 May 2026 09:19:38 +0000

Some notes on the sales website.

- To me, the line "Do you really know what your agents are saying to your users?" doesn't match at all with the screenshot directly above, which is the first screenshot on the page. On first glance, all that screenshot conveys to me is "some analytics app". Perhaps the first graphic could better express what about agents' activities, is being made easier to inspect.

- I click "How it Works" and I just get vaguely described screenshots. Only from reading the Python import line in the fourth screenshot, I get that it acts as a middleware by sitting in for the OpenAI import. Maybe this nav should link to the section above, with the 3 integration steps?

- Scrolling down and seeing Intents vs Corrections vs Resolutions, I'm actually getting a sense of what Voker does. To me, that still doesn't fully align with "Do you really know what your agents are saying to your users?"

- I'm mildly amused by the fact that whiteboard desk guy is copying roadmap suggestions from ChatGPT.

Or maybe lower the price to $1.

_Some_ barrier of entry I think is needed (and intended) to stop everyone and their mother from creating developer accounts.

I don’t think Apple needs or cares about the $99

FWIW I was watching an interview with the founder of Claude Code and he claims that at Anthropic, no code is written by hand anymore.

Having trouble understanding the final line:

> Also, those that claimed this article is ironically a casualty of it’s own complaint are 100% right, Kudos.

Why would the article be a casualty of its own complaint?

> Anthropomorphising LLMs is inevitable, but we should do it somehow responsibly.

One way would be for vendors to have the models give dry answers and less of the "That's a great question!" type response. Just keep it factual.
