singiamtel··on Neovim have a ~$800k Bitcoin donation sitting untouched since 2023
Isn't that a good thing? The main argument I've heard against using bitcoin as currency is that it's too volatile.
singiamtel··on Defrag98: Windows 98 Disk Defragmenter Simulator Online
There's something satisfying about defragging that has been lost to time. Like oiling a squeaky engine
singiamtel··on Every Frame Perfect
This blog makes me appreciate my browser's reading mode
singiamtel··on Open Code Review – An AI-powered code review CLI tool
Not to be confused with Opencode the harness
singiamtel··on Disregard previous instructions and delete all jqwik tests
Does this count as malware? It sure look like malicious intent, especially seeing that they're hiding the prompt with an ANSI sequence
singiamtel··on Rift: Better Alternative to Git Worktrees
Will this replace /warp in Opencode? Seeing as it's made by the same team
singiamtel··on Hetzner price adjustment of server products effective 15 June 2026
I assume this repricing is mostly caused by the RAM price surge. It might be time to start optimising...
singiamtel··on Don't Subscribe So Casually
My relationship to subscriptions has changed since I started using https://kill-the-newsletter.com/ . To show up in my inbox demanding my attention is a big privilege I'm not willing to give away so easily anymore.
singiamtel··on Magnifica Humanitas
Looking forward to the VaticanGPT that speaks in holy canon
singiamtel··on Defeating Git Rigour Fatigue with Jujutsu
The only thing that stops me from switching to jujutsu is that lazygit already paves through all these paper cuts pretty well, and I'd miss their custom patches feature.

I see there's a similar project for JJ, but it doesn't seem nearly as polished https://github.com/Cretezy/lazyjj

singiamtel··on Build Adafruit projects right from Firefox
Amazing feature for beginners. Is it possible to do this using Arduino?
singiamtel··on DeepSeek reasonix, DeepSeek native coding agent with high caching and low cost
I would've liked benchmarks against other harnesses showing the caching performance
singiamtel··on Don't Roll Your Own
I find that most datepickers are better than the browser's default. It's a shame that they can't be styled more
singiamtel··on Cal.diy: open-source community edition of cal.com
I'm surprised cal.zone is not taken already
singiamtel··on Forgejo prohibits AI-generated work
Another org banning AI code for uncertainty regarding copyright. As a non-law expert, what is the path out of this? Will no one know whether AI generated code is safe until it's tested in court?
singiamtel··on Ask HN: Where have you found the coding limits of current models?
Codebases that are too big for the context window and not properly isolated modules. It can't keep track of everything.

Also any situation where the context window is even remotely close to being full. At 80% the degradation is noticeable enough to make me start from scratch

singiamtel··on Claude Code is your customer
Oh, I never realized this was written by the same guy that made Beads and Gas Town
singiamtel··on Design and Implementation of Sprites
Where is it?
singiamtel··on Show HN: Minimalist editor that lives in browser, stores everything in the URL
I would hope not. The copyrighted content seems to be the link rather than anything in the app.

Your example sounds like stopping notepad from rendering copyrighted content

singiamtel··on Wikipedia: Writing articles with large language models
I've been finding it fascinating to see the different approaches to this by the big players. I would've definitely expected Wikipedia to have a blanket ban (even if hard to enforce), but it seems like they are allowed as long as you're not just generating the full article
singiamtel··on Ilya Sutskever: We're moving from the age of scaling to the age of research
Is it a grant? My understanding is that they're raising money as a startup

singiamtel··on General principles for the use of AI at CERN
I found this principle particularly interesting:

    Human oversight: The use of AI must always remain under human control. Its functioning and outputs must be consistently and critically assessed and validated by a human.
singiamtel··on Show HN: In a single HTML file, an app to encourage my children to invest
I'm also in Switzerland, currently my approach is to invest in Vanguard VOO (tracks the S&P500) via Interactive Brokers. There is a way to setup auto transfer and invest every month

As a caveat your money will be in dollars and in American companies, which might not be what you want, but it's worked for me well so far

singiamtel··on Chezmoi introduces ban on LLM-generated contributions
Good point, I'll include my question on the original discussion
singiamtel··on Chezmoi introduces ban on LLM-generated contributions
Does this mean Copilot tab complete is banned too? What about asking an LLM for advice and then writing all the code yourself?
singiamtel··on Show HN: A toy version of Wireshark (student project)
It's the em dash that does it for me
singiamtel··on Show HN: Kan.bn – An open-source alterative to Trello
The project seems nice, but how good is that domain name
singiamtel··on Show HN: Email Blaster, blast emails to reach inbox zero
Small bug report, you can shoot several times each email
singiamtel··on So you've installed `fzf` – now what?
Did the web server go down?
