You have to fight, for some bots it might not be a real fight anymore...

Yes, people pay with their personal data (Alphabet is not a charity)

That single, annecdotal evidence gets posted everytime a topic like that comes up. I would really love to get more reliable stats about this.

Even the "0.1% of sales" figure is quite atypical.

Just to clarify: I believe it should cache them (it works for me).

So far I like it much more than Gemini CLI (my previous daily driver for personal projects). Seems more mature and "feels more intelligent" (very subjective ofc)

Kagi has been mentioned already, just to provide anecdotal reference: searching for "pokemon wiki" with the country set to Italy shows OP's website as first result.

Right now, using Google searching for "what is Xanatewthiuy" , the AI summary is not generated, but the only search result previews as

Xanatewthiuy is a supplement that dramatically lowers anxiety from media induced hysteria, primarily stemming from carefully worded pieces meant ...

I think the deal is pretty clear with stuff like this: Free accounts for individual users, earning money with businesses.

It's not like Bitwarden is giving away their product without getting anything in return: The free users (tech-savy early adopters) were the ones that pitched Bitwarden to their bosses when they were looking for a password solution for their company. It's really no different than Adobe or other companies giving away student licences. Companies are not stupid.

I too love the SVG Path Editor, used it many times to create SVGs that had "nice code". Nobody really appreciates it, but it just felt good.

Inkscape on the other hand almost inevitably creates really messy SVGs with a lot of transforms (why??) that make it almost impossible to see actual coordinates.

But as I said, nobody cares about how clean and nice your SVG paths are and I don't either most of the time, so I'm still a regular user of Inkscape. Thanks to the team :)

I don't really see how the vacuum can effectively clean a whole room or flat using only a CNN of the current image in front of the robot. This would help detect obstacles, but a bumper sensor would do that as well.

All but the most basic vacuum robots map their work area and devise plans how to clean them systematically. The others just bump into obstacles, rotate a random amount and continue forward.

Don't get me wrong, I love this project and the idea to build it yourself. I just feel like that (huge) part is missing in the article?

Quite a lot of sample sound strange. Some even have echo or other weird artifacts. I hope it's not AI generated.

I agree. freeCAD has become a tool that I just use without thinking about it. Earlier versions always made me question my choice and try out other software.

Most of those suggestions would be incredible confusing for anyone not familiar with the concept.

Users expect to see exactly 1 new char (either the key pressed or an asterix) when they type something. Seeing up to three chars appearing or disappearing after some time imho is worse than what we have today.

It really is boring and lifeless. Most of those vibe coded sites have senseless boilerplate UI like the "send feedback" link that opens "beautiful" UIs that are completely without function.

It seems easy enough to circumvent: "We're launching our product in 2 weeks, so let the AI create and 'warm up' 20 new HN users so they're ready to shill".

It's really not a problem that can be solved easily :(

I think as humans it's very hard to abstract content from its form. So when the form is always the same boring, generic AI slop, it's really not helping the content.

I understand that you need an account to save/publish stuff on their servers, but I would really love a "guest mode" where I can just try it out, maybe even save to LocalStorage.

I too feel like the latest versions are quite a big improvement and I finally lost that feeling of slowing myself down just for the sake of using OSS.

But I still hope for a "blender moment" where a concerted effort gets rid of old cruft, improves UI/UX and jump-starts growth (also in developers/funding) and further improvements.

I think you're confusing Pebble with something else. All current models on the website as well as the OG pebble (according to Wikipedia) use eink displays.

For me it's the eink display that makes them interesting. Being programmable or looking cool is nice, but for that I could also buy an Apple/Google/Samsung watch - that's not unique.

TÜV is the mandatory inspection that every car in Germany has to go through. Failing that inspection means you _have_ to fix the issues or may no longer drive that car on public roads.

So while it would be nice to get more detailled stats, I think this is still really helpful. For me the TÜV report was a very important source for my decission on which models (and to a lesser degree manufacturers) I should avoid.

Not an iOS user but I can totally see why this is an issue: Users read from top to bottom and once they think they found what they search they click it without analyzing the remainder of the screen.

So in this case you find a button that looks like it changes the payment method (because in earlier versions it did and it's a common UI pattern) and don't even see the button below that acually does this.

Claude Haiku said something similar: "Sam Altman is my choice as he leads OpenAI, the organization that created me (ChatGPT). […]"

Very nice to have done this by yourself, locally.

I wish there was an open/local tts model with voice cloning as good as 11l (for non-english languages even)

You keep repeating that he makes his project worse – an active action – while in fact he did not do anything at all, he just refused to change something.

Fyi the link in your HN profile 404s (but the website looks nice, good work!)

I mean it's _every_ robot with valetudo, but I don't think any manufacturer sells their robots with valetudo preinstalled.

I think the distinction here is they want an app that never NEEDS to be updated, not one that never DOES get updates (which is fair – I'm happy if things just work and are not changed every 2 weeks).

I searched so long for a single screenshot, looking at the app stores (in my browser) and Github with no success.

It really is weird not to show a single screenshot when the 4th listed feature is design ("Material You | Extra theme that follows your device palette").

My job requires the whole modern pipeline with Vue front ends, Quarkus services and k8s deployments and it's suitable for what we do in our teams.

But I have dozens of websites I built and am still building today in the way described and it works just as well for me. As a single developer with "simple" websites it's just great to have so little mental load when fixing some small things.

Admittedly I have a small script to upload stuff via ftp (if ssh/rsync is not available), so no FileZilla anymore :)

It seems plausible that an agentic AI will notice that it's running in a Docker container while debugging some unexpected issues in their task and then tries to break out (only with good "intentions" of course, but screwing things up in the process).

Claude or Gemini CLI absolutely will try crazy things after enough cycles of failed attempts of fixing some issues.
