cornedor··on Dutch governments builds alternative for Microsoft based on NixOS
They use both. https://code.overheid.nl/MinBZK?q=dawo&sort=alphabetically as the official source, and https://codeberg.org/DAWO for the community parts.
cornedor··on Claude Code sends 33k tokens before reading the prompt; OpenCode sends 7k
That will increase the amount of initial tokens used, because the tools have to be described somewhere. Maybe not as much as Claude Code, but it could get more if you just randomly keep adding tools.
cornedor··on Qwen3.6-Max-Preview: Smarter, Sharper, Still Evolving
Opus trough Claude Code, the Chinese models trough OpenCode Go, which seems like a great package to test them out.
cornedor··on Qwen3.6-Max-Preview: Smarter, Sharper, Still Evolving
I tried GLM and Qwen last week for a day. And some issues it could solve, while some, on surface relatively easy, task it just could not solve after a few tries, that Opus oneshotted this morning with the same prompt. It’s a single example ofcourse, but I really wanted to give it a fair try. All it had to do was create a sortable list in Magento admin. But on the other hand, GLM did oneshot a phpstorm plugin
cornedor··on Zed, A sans for the needs of 21st century (2024)
Capital I and lowercase L are identical, not ideal, but maybe not that much of a problem for the use cases of this font.
cornedor··on Claude Opus 4.6
Leaks were mentioning Sonnet 5 and I guess later (a combination of) Opus 4.6
cornedor··on Anthropic Claude Max $200/mo: They claim 99% uptime, I calculated 84% Loss: $780
> 5+ days unable to work in January-February 2026

Perhaps not the best idea to be this dependent on a product.

cornedor··on The struggle of resizing windows on macOS Tahoe
To make this easier in MacOS:

  defaults write -g NSWindowShouldDragOnGesture -bool true
This allows you to drag windows around by grabbing the window anywhere you want while holding ctrl + cmd.
cornedor··on Kagi releases alpha version of Orion for Linux
> This is honestly what’s holding me back from buying a Kagi subscription at this point.

The extension is working really well for me. You could always try it out with the free version to see if it works for you as well.

cornedor··on Gmail is entering the Gemini Era
For me, it is working excellent, I almost never check the spam directory for false positives, and it happens maybe once a month for me to receive a spam message in my inbox. I think it is comparable to Gmail, maybe a bit better.
cornedor··on Cloudflare Global Network experiencing issues
No, since they're simply too many. For an e-commerce site I work for, we once had an issue where some bad-actor tried to crawl the site to set up scam shops. The list of IPs were way too broad, and the user-agents way too generic or random.

cornedor··on How to self-host a web font from Google Fonts
Any idea if the woff2 files served by Google are the same? Or that they maybe are more optimized for web?
cornedor··on How to self-host a web font from Google Fonts
Since caches are no longer shared between pages, it actually is often better to self host your fonts than rely on public CDN’s. Makes it even weirder that Google does not offer a simple solution to self host fonts.

cornedor··on Gemini 2.5 Flash Image
It's consistently around 10 seconds, often faster.
cornedor··on Meta: Shut down your invasive AI Discover feed
Not a user, but isn't de difference here that users might expect a shared item only to be visible for friends, but instead it is public?
cornedor··on Yes-rs: A fast, memory-safe rewrite of the classic Unix yes command
I think this one is already generated using AI, LLM's find it very funny to use quantum for anything that should be made jokingly complex.
cornedor··on Animate Anyone 2: High-Fidelity Character Image Animation
Light doesn't match up at all (look at the Ronaldo example) and the animation is far from perfect. Go through the one with the joker frame-by-frame, and you can see his arms moving through his body and stuff like that.
cornedor··on Oasis AI
In this case, the reason might be that it needs WebGPU, which is only available in chromium based browsers. Changing my user agent doesn't let me in either. Text selection being disabled might be a "lazy" fix for text being selected while in game.
cornedor··on Ask HN: What's the most creative 'useless' program you've ever written?
Back in the Flash days, I had a signature on a forum with a small (like 120x40) SWF file in it. It was a little "city builder" game where you could place different types of stores, and the goal was to earn as much money as possible. It would save the state to local storage, so you could continue in other comments I placed.
cornedor··on Please stop putting cookie pop-ups on your website (2022)
Cookie banners is not a policy, it is used to work around a policy, and often implemented incorrectly. GPDR says you need to be given a specific informed decision, but often cookie banners show a big green approve button, and a less positive deny button (if that is even the case). When the law is being enforced better (Which is slowly happening) those cookie banners should get 2 the same looking buttons, and that would result in more denies. Hopefully, companies would realize that they need to solve their marketing differently.
cornedor··on Please stop putting cookie pop-ups on your website (2022)
They mostly use it to monitor (and automate) how successful ads are. Plausible is not a drop-in replacement for such use cases.
cornedor··on Kagi Assistant
Have you tried reporting those queries? I've seen issues like this being mentioned in the changelog with certain keywords.
cornedor··on Reddit Is Down
So is AirBnB, I wonder if they both use another service that is down.
cornedor··on The meanest app: Duolingo subjects its users to "emotional blackmail"
The icon only changes on April fools as a joke or something like that. And it changes for everybody. At least on iPhone, I don't think you can change the app icon without notifying the user.
cornedor··on Apple Maps on the web launches in beta
Works fine here with a Chrome User-Agent in Firefox

cornedor··on Mako – fast, production-grade web bundler based on Rust
You can get pretty far by using importmaps, you would not have treeshaking or a single bundled file, but it works pretty well. JSDoc can be used to add types to your project (that can be typechecked using typescript). I'm currently building a hobby project using preact, htm and jspm for packages. It's pretty nice to just start building without starting a build tool, having to wait for it to finish, make sure it's not crashed etc. But indeed, I won't use this for production.

The only thing I'm still missing is an offline JSPM/esm.sh.

cornedor··on Frame.work laptop now available in Denmark, Finland, and Sweden
You should be able to buy one, and pick it up in Sweden.

cornedor··on Frame.work laptop now available in Denmark, Finland, and Sweden
They were already available since they started selling to the first EU country. As an EU citizen, you have the right[1] to purchase a product from any EU country. Geo-blocking is often prohibited. They now only ship to those countries as well, so you don't have to pick it up from another EU country.

cornedor··on Google is overhauling search results with AI overviews and Gemini organization
If you’re willing to pay, Kagi. They include AI features, but they are optional. I did no real research, but I barely get typical AI generated results when I search for something.
