Aleksandr kak vy tut?
🏒 Lucian Marin I like the iPhone Air. Who else wants one?
👨🏻‍💻 Moroni I want to visit an Apple Store to see and try out the iPhone Air in person. I'm not sure about getting a thin phone... a shorter one? Oh yes, definitely!
😀 Tom I don't use Apple devices, but it seems like people want a shorter & narrower, not thinner, iPhone (including my mom).
🐵 George god, yes, I just want a newer iPhone mini, is it too much to ask?
🏒 Lucian Marin Brave Search AI is just a summarization engine of search results. I can do my own research with it. The other chat bots introduce all kinds of bias like they know better than the actual real world data.
👨🏻‍💻 Moroni Yes, I've been using the Brave Search, and so far it's been a good experience.
Dennis Nice work. Are you adding post endpoints for messages and posts as well?
🏒 Lucian Marin Yes. Then patch as well.
an oun Just rediscovered borg backup for the fifth time. Is it actually usable to the extent that I won't have to think about it once configured?
Ianni Yes, that is my experience this far
❇️ Steve Brand I make mods for a game called Cataclysm: Dark Days Ahead. Not here to promote them; just here to talk about the stuff I learn while researching for them. URL: github.com/Frontie... -- TL;DR: they ground an already-grounded game further in reality. I'm *that* sort of a person, yes.
🏒 Lucian Marin I want a clean alternative to LinkedIn. Also while working on resumes, I figured out how to do an API for the entire site. I asked Gemini to translate HTML endpoints to JSON endpoints. Auth will be token based.
👽 Paul Webb Yes please! I can't wait to use your version
👨🏻‍💻 Moroni P0sixninja, a prominent former iPhone jailbreaker, is homeless and looking for a job. Does this suggest that talent alone isn't enough to succeed today?
🏒 Lucian Marin Yes. I know this from my own experience. Talent isn't important to managers.
🐘 Alex Holst Are we open source yet? I heard we're open source. I want to see if this site loads as fast on my systems as it does here.
🍕 Mattia Tezzele is this thing still on?
🦇 Arr Just read a heading on hackernews: "making social "social" again". This site here is what makes social media "social", instead of corporate, again. (But media is technically just text, so not media, but social text, at its best, I guess.)
🏒 Lucian Marin Yes! How many times I need to explain it? Subreply is HN version of a social network.
😁 Nitin Khanna social media, as in where you go to consume content and read people's comments and have conversations? Yes. Social network, as in where you go to hang out with friends? Nope!
🦇 Arr "You have zero friends." Well yes, but I do not need social media to tell me that! Or South Park episode titles, for that matter.
🏒 Lucian Marin I'm broke for this Christmas. Can we talk about the next one?
Pzumk Same. Yes, let's talk about the next one, it's too far away to get stressed about that one too!
🏒 Lucian Marin I started walking a lot lately. I don't stop. You can access all kinds of memories just by walking. You can remember everything from your past with exact clarity like it has happened yesterday. I relieve most of my childhood memories like vivid dreams. kyushu-u.ac.jp/en/...
Zero Edge If you stared straight at a total eclipse with no protection you might burn the retina of your eyes. The burn would not be the same kind of burn you would receive from staring straight at the sun (which would be a filled circle) but instead would be a thin outline of a circle. I wonder if a person with this type of burn would have differing psychological traits than others. I wonder if they would be able to visually focus on things better than others considering they have a boundary circle permanently within their vision. I wonder if it changed the culture of peoples of ancient times if they happened stare at a total eclipse...
🏒 Lucian Marin I stared multiple times at the sun. I don't think the burn is permanent.
