I grew up on a farm. I don’t care what the author says, manual labor is very rewarding. I built my own office, carport, horse stable, chicken coop and many other projects in the evenings after already exhausting work, and if I could make more in construction, I’d pick that over an office job any day of the week.

If you take good care of your body and health, it doesn’t have to be as bad as you think. But a lot of tradies think eating healthy, stretching, eye protection, gloves, etc. are “gayyyyy”.

No thanks. No more US based infrastructure for me.

> Things are never quite going to get there.

Nothing in life is ever perfect. Doesn't mean imperfect stuff can't have a lot of impact.

Be a better friend.

Ironically, the LWN website's look and feel (and the reasoning behind it) perfectly illustrates why this project is doomed.

> "How many branding mistakes do you want to make?"

"All of them"

Stop thinking as an employee. Start selling products and features.

How many companies depend on perfect code?

People aren't seeing the forest through the trees.

While lots of developers, journalists, analysts, investors and influencers are bickering about AGI, goalposts, benchmarks, hypes and fears, entire markets are being transformed silently and steadily.

I don't program anymore. (Massive change)

I removed tons of technical debt (Massive change, lol)

I am easily 10x more productive (Massive change)

The quality of 'my' code is easily 10x better and contains less bugs (I was never principled, pedantic or a guru, lol)

I sleep better and I also make more money as a result. I'm constantly amazed by all changes and improvements. There are so many opportunities to profit from this that I can't be bothered with discussions about hypotheticals.

They're not needed. And there are bad designers everywhere.

And I know HN people think marketing is a bad word.

But marketeers know that design is part of the messaging. And nowadays, having clear AI tells in your design shouts "I made this in an afternoon, so don't take this seriously"

First impressions are everything in a world where attention spans are shortened every year.

Act accordingly.

EYEBROWS EVERYWHERE

There are lots of tells in every vibe coded design.

Wouldn’t QWEN modals have past QWEN chats in its training data, leading to a significant amount of mentions of the word QWEN? Just the question “what model are you” would have been answered deterministically multiple times and they’re now part of the weights.

As a publisher who relied on Adsense it’s so sad to see how Google is absolutely destroying the industry with every user hostile practice imaginable. It’s absolutely disgusting and pathetic. They are hooked on a type of crack that will ruin the product in the long run.

Hetzner. I like the company and how they operate: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MQeJYEN_lrg

Plus, it's an EU company. I don't want to rely on US hosting for my business.

People like to forget that Elon Musk also wanted to party on the island. And that he lied about that before the email came out.

These people have enablers everywhere. It’s exactly like the abuse in the catholic church. The people in power can’t do without the enablers that make excuses for them.

I specifically requested no whataboutisms.

As a European, I’d say Bernie Sanders would be your best candidate.

But anyone with a decent amount of dignity, humility, empathy and confidence will do.

I noticed the same patterns in my religious family. I live in a largely secular country, and the only people I know who talk down on “other people” all claim to be religious.

After 6 years of this drama I fail to see the fun in sarcastic comments that remind me of Poe’s law.

I would love to hear from HN republicans why they think this amount of self enrichment and corruption is okay. Add to this all the paid-for pardons, the shady stock trades, the never ending vacations at his own properties, the plane deal and much, much more.

No whataboutisms or anonymous downvotes, I’m genuinely curious why people continue to support him.

US citizens are bad at protesting. In my area these cameras would be on fire weekly.

Which is an awesome project by the way. I've launched about one CRUD project per week for small customers and it's rock solid.

It's also your enemy.

I usually don't reply to people who comment this obnoxiously, but the article is literally:

Expected move and good to hear. Gives Tailwind some extra maintenance years. But like with all these sugardaddy takeovers, the next expected move is “Tailwind is now independent again“.

There's an image in the article and a full website with more media is just 1 click away. Instead you resorted to typing 272 characters not including ENTER, and I doubt that was easier than clicking the logo to visit the homepage.

Typing this comment also did not solve your problem, because that would require the author to read your comment, add more screenshots and it would require that you revisit it.

I spend 40 euros per month, with 75% because of AI scrapers.

Plus, how secure are the plugins?

I'm being downvoted by Elon's posse. But here's the evidence:

They should ask the AI scraping companies for donations.
