jereees··on Bun: Fast JavaScript runtime, transpiler, and NPM client written in Zig
They are part of the production build pipeline. You need them to have the final product.

For a second I thought this was an article about George Hotz and the comma body

jereees··on Association between ADHD medication and depression: A 10-year follow-up
Diagnosed at 25, started Vyvanse right away. My ADHD is similar to what you describe, and the medication has helped with the mandatory chores of day to day life. If anything it has the effect of feeling that nothing is “too hard” for me and that I am not “too dumb to learn or do X”.

Side effects are light to moderately sever headache if I don’t drink enough water, IBM, high blood pressure and a pinch of insomnia.

It’s all worth it.

jereees··on Apple Removes Flag Icons in Monterey 12.4
Including the Sun itself.
jereees··on Elon Musk calls out Twitter employee caught in video mocking his Asperger's
There is a follow up video[0] of the man being chased after the cover is blown up.

Not cool chasing people though.

jereees··on Elon Musk calls out Twitter employee caught in video mocking his Asperger's
“You’re lucky you met me organically or I would be questioning everything about you”

It’s almost satire. I don’t agree with what this employee is saying, but what really irks me is the tone of superiority and arrogance he employs to speak so carelessly about a topic he has power on.

This employee should be fired not because of his views, but his unprofessional attitude.

jereees··on Eve Online fans cheer Microsoft Excel features at annual Fanfest
A much better title: Eve Online strategy game announces JavaScript API to export user data.

The current title is misleading and clickbaity. There’s no Excel features inside the game, heck it’s not even a CSV API.

jereees··on SketchUp for iPad: 3D Visualization on iPad
Wasn’t this product owned by Google at some point? What happened to that?
jereees··on Elon Musk makes $43B unsolicited bid to take Twitter private
The ultimate scapegoat tbh. The whole things was just for show (completely unfounded statement, but I hold it to heart).
jereees··on Novaya Gazeta quits news reports after criminal prosecution of journalists
Thanks for submitting a translated link.
jereees··on React Native for Windows is helping Settings improve more quickly
For all the criticisms Microsoft is getting for this, why don’t we criticize Apple as much for embedding web views in iOS Settings app (and now macOS System Preferences!), namely the subscriptions page and anything to do with iCloud settings. Basically every time I can drag an image out of what it should be a native dialog or god forbid get a downscaled version of the image that is not optimized for Retina.
jereees··on Why are young people having so little sex? (2018)
Sorry I must have missed something how do you link Kelloggs the cereal company with circumcision?
jereees··on Awesome-Haskell
Awesome
jereees··on Show HN: Motor Admin – No-code admin panel
+1 to SQL Server. That’s where the crust of userbase will be because nobody wants to mess with MS’s ridiculously complex tooling :)
jereees··on Apple Joins Blender Development Fund
Not to mention the platform wide rollout of spatial audio.
jereees··on Visual Studio for Mac Moving to Native UI
I wonder at which point does it make sense to switch from VSCode, regardless of its absolute exemplary use of Electron, to VS2022 for that sweet performance gain on non-M1 Macs.
jereees··on Found a program I wrote in 1981 and decided to bring it back to life

jereees··on iPhone 13 Pro and iPhone 13 Pro Max
Please don’t put a charger back in the box, at least not by default. While we are at it why not take off the cost of the charger from the price?
jereees··on “Worst cloud vulnerability you can imagine” discovered in Microsoft Azure
An analogy of an analogy. Could somebody go one level deeper?
jereees··on FSNotes: Notes manager for macOS and iOS – native, open source
That one.
jereees··on FSNotes: Notes manager for macOS and iOS – native, open source
Haven’t seen Craft mentioned here but amongst almost all of the other already mentioned apps, Craft feels to me like it’s got the whole pack. Native apps, cloud sync that works, option for iCloud sync or offline storage, blocks that turn into pages, multi platform, Markdown, etc.
jereees··on Marc Andreessen on Investing and Tech
He sounds like he had too many Adderall mixed with coffee. I would know.
jereees··on Poly Network hacker returns $258M after stealing $600M
We used to do this in Habbo Hotel. I don’t know how RuneScape worked back then but in Habbo you could buy virtual furniture dropping their valuables into one of our rooms and then kicking them out and making the room private. So, it is different from your example in that “killing” was by-design meant to take stuff from other people, whereas what we did was closer to “fraud” (good luck regulating that in 2006) as other comment said.
jereees··on GitHub Copilot
The technical preview document points out that editor context is sent back to the server not just for code generation but as feedback for improvement. Are you (or OpenAI) improving the ML models based on the usage of this extension? It is interesting what the pricing will look like given that the model was originally trained on FOSS and then you go and harvest test cases from real users. If that’s the case I think that should be clearly explained upfront.
jereees··on Mac OS Monterey Features Unavailable on Intel Macs
Thanks for the concise explanation!
jereees··on Mac OS Monterey Features Unavailable on Intel Macs
Somehow impressive that they’re able to ship Universal Control (think Synergy only built-in) without M1 or U1. I wonder how do devices know where they are positioned relative to each other in physical space.
jereees··on Ask HN: How much do you contemplate per week?
Deliberately open ended :)
jereees··on Show HN: Chaoskasten – note taking app with integrated learning
Thanks for this! I’m curious how did you come up with the pricing model?
