I'm quite surprised by the difference in HN users' (quite positive) reaction to this product compared to quite negative reactions to Ello, posted here a few days ago. Is there a substantial difference in teaching methodology, or other factor that makes Ello unpalatable?
Please elaborate.
Please don't post shallow dismissals, especially of other people's work. A good critical comment teaches us something.

I believe the real test would be if this accounted for (at least) people's aliases, and perhaps functions. So parse their .bashrc, .zshrc, .profile, etc. and expand the commands using those aliases to see if the eventual command executed matches the one that is expected here.
Specifically, it's an JS-controlled/animated SVG embedded in an iframe.
In hacker culture, the correct question is "Why not?"
Somebody wanted to do something, and they did it; it doesn't have to be any more complicated than that :-)
Don't be curmudgeonly. Thoughtful criticism is fine, but please don't be rigidly or generically negative.

I didn't know that. I feel somewhat vindicated :-) I'll cite the ADA guidelines next time they insist.
edit: link to the latest ADA recommendation on x-rays. https://www.ada.org/about/press-releases/new-recommendations...
You wouldn’t get an X-ray of another part of your body unless the doctor believed there was reason to order one after an examination. Similarly, dental X-rays should be ordered only after first examining the patient’s medical and dental histories, prior X-ray images, and current clinical exam findings.
I don't believe in that kind of response. Anything that one can say in rage or anger can be communicated in a calm and measured response.
But isn't it a trade off, like many things in life?
It absolutely is. For example, as soon as I turned 45, I got colonoscopy done, because the benefit of getting tested outweighed the cost of getting tested.
So if the dentist says, I suspect there's some rot, or my family member has started complaining of toothache, I would have no hesitation to get the x-ray, if recommended. But it is the regular, nonchalant nature of annual dental x-ray procedures that concerns me.
Drinking one beer a night for a year is a lot less harmful than drinking 365 beers in one go. The same applies to radiation exposure, but regulation doesn’t agree.
I know I may be overreacting, but when the dentists try to convince me that the annual x-ray of my family members is the same as being outside in the sun for a whole day, I try to explain it with a similar analogy; getting exposed to small amounts of x-ray over a long period is not the same as getting exposed to all of it in a fraction of a second.
They insist it because it is covered by insurance, and that I shouldn't worry about the cost. I have to clarify that the monetary cost is not my primary concern.
I have now learnt to simply say No, and agree to sign a waiver that's required by the insurance company.
I am okay with getting the x-ray if a professional has a legitimate reason to suspect there's something hidden that can be better investigated by getting an x-ray. My family has received x-ray, MRI, CT scans, ultrasound, etc. but only when its benefits outweigh the risks; e.g. bone fracture, pregnancy, concussion, etc.
As I said, I may be overreacting, but I'd like to err on the side of caution when it comes to my kids' and family's long-term health.
edit: s/by I'd like/but I'd like/
Be kind. Don't be snarky. Converse curiously; don't cross-examine. Edit out swipes.

Twice in the text quotes Claude Code's F1 score as 32%, but the table shows the score is 37%. It's very likely that the actual score is 32% (because it is referenced 2 times, and a third time indirectly as the difference 'seven').
Oddly, this is a strong indication of the text being hand-written rather than LLM-assisted; it's very likely that a human made a mistake in creating the table.

ADHD is a neurological disorder
children are born with.
The APA says it affects 5% of
children ages 4 to 17.
Children with ADHD often have
other mental issues,
such as depression, anxiety,
and oppositional defiant disorder.
Children with ADHD often
have low self-esteem
and poor social skills.
They are often bullied by
their peers and excluded
from social gatherings.
Children with ADHD are very
intelligent, creative, and
compassionate, but they are often
labeled by their peers as
"weird" or a "misfit."
All children deserve and
want to be loved.
Please be aware that not all
disabilities are visible.
Educate your children about ADHD
and teach them
kindness and compassion.
Chances are, there is at least
one child in your child's class who is
suffering from ADHD.
Simply asking a child with ADHD to
play with them
at recess would mean
the world to them!
Please help spread ADHD awareness
by sharing this video.I think it would help demo an app or two that use this BaaS. Even better, if all those apps use/display the same data in different ways.
From GP's point of view, Google is not a data center company because they're not renting out data centers to other companies; they're using them for their own usage.
For those not in the know, this is a reference to del.icio.us, one of the OGs to use Domain (Name) hack technique.

Both of those things can be true at the same time for some people.
This advice from P.T. Barnum is strikingly similar to Dave Ramsey's process of debt-elimination, or what he calls "The 7 Baby Steps".

I believe GP's intent was to point out that a company can get into an agreement with a government (make an offer they can't refuse), but a company cannot get a "region" to sign an agreement/contract with them.
I found this thread on Reddit, and the claim seems to be true!
