FWIW - In the Claude app (on android) when in transcript mode, it has a hard limit of 10 minutes. If you transcribe longer than that, it crashes and you lose everything you've said.

To make matters worse, they've recently gotten rid of the timer, so you have NFI how long you've been speaking for.

I use it for therapy-based stream-of-consciousnesses + venting and then have my project set up to understand the schema therapy work I've done with my psychologist and give me insights / draw threads between things from my past and now, and losing 10 whole minutes of talking and processing is SO FRUSTRATING!

Deep link now ( https://Deeplinknow.com ) - deferred deep linking for developers / people who dont want their links blocked by adockers because Branch/Appsflyer et al are actually under-the-hood cross platform ad tracking services.

I do no tracking, no analytics, just help you cross the airgap between web and mobile app so you can send users to the right place (and track them however you deem necessary)

This, but Real-Debrid. No need to self-host TBs of content and manually download them.

This slightly outdated guide helps you set it up pretty easily - instead of Zurg+ Black hole, use Decypharr

https://savvyguides.wiki/sailarrsguide/

Real-debrid == imagine a huge cloud storage service. You have 1000 people trying to download Burgonia.4k.mkv. it downloads the torrent once to the shared server, then gives each user their own access to it via a WebDAV mount.

WebDAV == trick you server into thinking a cloud server is a local folder. You use RClone to mount this and it's accessible from your local drive so you can stream all your stuff directly.

What this means: you add a show in Sonarr or a movie in Radarr. Prowlarr searches Torrentio or Zilean for torrents. The best match is chosen. It sends to Decypharr (or black hole) to say "download this torrent to my real debrid box". It finds the cached version of the file, which is instantly available in your drive. It's symlinked so Plex can pick up the file.

Basically the lead time from requesting a movie/series to watching it on your tv is about 10 seconds, with no storage overhead required.

I know Duralex because they're the de facto coffee cup for a latte in the world's best cafes. I dunno how or why it happened, but since about 2008 if you go to a cafe in Melbourne and your latte comes in anything BUT one of those Duralex glasses, you should run for the hills.

Enshittification. It's a thing.

No questions, but thanks for noting that you hire in APAC! I wrote an (admittedly frustrated) blog post about global startups not hiring in Aus/Asian timezones, it's a bit of a buzzkill when you're on the job hunt and get excited about companies only to find they aren't truly remote: https://www.warmhq.com/blog/why-dont-startups-hire-australia...

Bullfrogs? That's a funny name, I'd've called them Chuzwozzas!

Good point, but if they're operating in the US, UK and Europe, and are fully remote out of the box, is it that much of a stretch to add the other time zones?

Or is it just something that US-led startups don't think about?

One of the first things I think about when I'm launching a new startup is "How will I service clients in the US or Europe when I'm asleep?", I'd hope that global companies think about Asia that way too.

Looking for meaty senior engineer roles, preferably with a global team who has some decent AI/ML Devs on board as I'd love to learn about this area and upskill.

I'm an app developer, and I've had such a terrible experience with deferred deep linking providers like Branch and Appsflyer that I decided to build a competitor - https://DeepLinkNow.com

Why I think it's good: deferred deep linking has become an also-ran feature for MMPs whose primary focus is tracking users and advertising.

It's so bad that I can't even open deep links for Tiktok on my home network, because onelink links are blocked by adguard.

So that's why I built DLN. It's brand new and open for beta testing, I'd love some feedback and feature requests + to know how people use deferred deep linking.

Your collection of pelicans is so bloody funny, genuinely brightened my day.

I don't know what I was expecting when I clicked the link but it definitely wasn't this: https://simonwillison.net/tags/pelican-riding-a-bicycle/

It's a cute quote, but it seems about 5 years out of date. There was a golden period for a while there that indie hackers and self-funded devs could create a useful product and grow it themselves and could 'beat' VCs.

But now you can create some AI generated slop in a day that used to take months. Being an indie hacker used to be a sort of badge of honour, now it's where everyone starts.

I think the VC-backed companies who have budgets to do actual marketing, actual sales, actual outreach beyond "I have a good following on X, I'm gonna sell them stuff" will win in the end.

As a customer, for me I don't care whether the company is profitable, I care about whether it works, whether it's in my budget, whether the company will be around in 2 years regardless of if the founder loses their passion for it.

Unrelated: I love HN; a random database question and fkn jedberg is one of the first responders

I'm not in YC, but I want to launch my startup here as it's relevant to the audience. Can I go through a process like this to coordinate with you for a launch, or should we just follow the guidelines, make a submission and hope for the best?

What's the difference when using your own anthropic key vs vanilla? Are you hitting limits with Claude in cursor that they key unlocks?

I ask cos I use it very liberally and haven't had any issues that have made me consider adding a key, except when I made it read my whole codebase on every request

1) does it though? It seems like the Google-specific parts of it are pretty ancillary to the whole experience

2) how is it different to Apples integration with Safari?

I use Harmonic on android for HN and can highly recommend it

Australia / Asia too, no one cares about iMessage

This is hilariously Kafka-esque, what a shitshow

Same, I have nest cameras and nest wifi (now discontinued 2 years later, so can't buy compatible wifi points anymore). Software + Google voice assistant is so goddamn buggy!

Wish I went with a TP-Link solution instead

Start a company then do my nefarious work under that, got it!

Nice try, _dummy_!

I just bought a refurbished 16in M3 pro, no regrets at all. There's always a new one around the corner, it's really just about whether your setup achieves what you need it to.

Look at real world differences between M2 and M3, it's not a massive jump at all.

I do cross platform app development and the machine is excellent for that. Glad to have it now rather than waiting months for a slightly better system

There was a post here a few months ago saying that blooming prevented static electricity build up within the coffee grounds which made them clump together (or something like that anyway), I thought it was interesting.

I'm a cross-platform app developer and can assure you iOS is much stronger in terms of what data you can/can't get from a user

This is basically that Treehouse of Horror episode of the Simpsons where the ads go on a crazy rampage and to defeat them all you have to do is "just don't look"

I mean they basically invented, popularised and maintained react/react native which I've built my entire career on, I love them for that.

It doesn't matter whether you abstain from using Instagram or not, some of your friends will still be more or less subtly influenced by its existence in your social interactions

You could say the same thing about the Bible, or Harry Potter, or any number of things too

I started this video knowing absolutely nothing about 3D printing, and now I feel like I know a lot + could see a lot of use-cases for their printer. What a great demo video!

How are you using Plexamp? Do you DL albums and stream it from there as a spotify-ish alternative?
