Pretty much anything computer graphics related seems to follow the sage advice that "a close approximation is better than an accurate simulation", if that's the kind of thing you're looking for?

My Family recently (in the last couple of years) started to breed Ragdoll cats in the U.K.

In an attempt to support what's involved in this I built Ardent for them. It covers a bunch of the day-to-day concerns (weighing and health tracking), Lineage and Inbreeding prevention, and Owner Pack generation for handovers to new Owners.


LazyVim is about as easy as it gets in the Vim space for a fully-fledged (but customizable) editor.

https://www.lazyvim.org/installation

Then run `LazyExtras` and you get a prompt that shows things like:

  Recommended Languages: (2)
    ○ lang.docker    mason.nvim  nvim-lspconfig  nvim-treesitter  none-ls.nvim  nvim-lint
    ○ lang.toml    nvim-lspconfig
Hit x against a couple and you're off to the races.

[lang.docker and lang.toml are examples of things you're selecting, the list after is what is being installed and configured for that thing]

For things like integrating a debugger, or to run your tests directly inline from the editor might require more customisation though.


Do you just mean external vs internal processing/thinking?

I doubt it'll be of interest to folks here - but my Family recently (in the last couple of years) started to breed ragdoll cats in the U.K.

This has been my personal project to understand where I personally find LLMs useful as coding assistants, and where I don't. One easy to spot example is, front-end + copy. Another area I've enjoyed it is talking through how I'd design and build functionality and features ahead of time.

It's been very interesting, and is helpful to folks I care about, even if no-one else ends up using it!


Why do companies lie about their uptime?

I'm not trying to call out Sentry.io specifically here, I'm just using them as the example because it happened today. In fact, in general I'm a happy customer of theirs.

I'm trying to understand the motivations behind companies that aren't open about their uptime (or other issues, such as data breaches etc).

Why is it not encouraged/rewarded (or perceived as such) to be up front and open about these things? It seems that amongst the HN crowd it has been valued, and folks are appreciative and supportive of these things (vocally and with their wallets) - so why is it not more common practice?


I clicked the image thinking I was seeing the message you were getting (geoblocked in the UK), then realised I'd clicked an imgur link :facepalm:

(Note: Zero negative sentiment towards imgur here)


I think even if the AI response at the top of the search result is good, I question what it means for the "open web".

If all your content is consumed and presented via a third party - how does that change the nature of "content publishing".

It's the summarisation of Wikipedia and the like on steroids.


Which are those 7 companies?


Tesla, Space X, Boring Company, XAI, Neuralink, Paypal, SolarCity. Also funded and did recruiting for OpenAI.


What companies did Elon Musk start? [0]

Unsurprisingly the AI agent is wrong. For one, Musk did not start Tesla.


Okay... When he joined it was what 7 months old, had no product at all, they didn't even own the name and now it's the 9th most valuable company on earth. By the same token, if I start a company, you join the very next day, I don't do anything and you do all the work and provide all the money, you are not a founder.

If that's your definition then technically he's not a founder.


Setting it to 1, 7, 100 looks like a ticker tape of constellations (like Stargate Chevrons) :D
