Same here, I recently got frustrated with every email client, tried everything. Few days ago I finally decided to vibe code my own email client with Claude Code and I got a basic version running in a single day. Can’t wait to build it exactly the way I want, with programmable rules/filters and AI drafts for specific types of emails I get, conversion to plain text or dark mode for readability, contextual information in sidebars pulled from APIs (such as email history and customer support / CRM info), and one click actions in other apps.

The Z80 is a legend, and even though it's not powerful by today's standards one of the things I think makes it great is it was a "standard". There's something very powerful about a platform that doesn't change.

I'm really hoping raspberry pis can fill the roll of a "standard computer". Currently, they have pretty rapidly changing CPUs, etc. I would like to see a pi that settles down as "The Pi" that doesn't change for decades. This would allow all kinds of software (and OSs) to be written for it that stands the test of time. Download a binary and it just works. No need for updates/changes etc.

> the job of being and elected official is to ignore the population and seize power/money/influence for yourself

Non sequitur.

An elected prioritising a hot-button issue bill over one they like but which has no support is listening to their population.

> Blame that victim!

If an accurate description of choices actively made is blame, sure.

> This may help explain why people who trust others and institutions tend to report higher levels of well-being, according to Finkenauer.

This can also be interpreted that people who report lower levels of well-being are in situations where trusting others and institutions poses real risks.

At this point any study that says 'shows', 'linked', etc is bogus until it proves otherwise in its methodology/data or is independently replicated. No wonder there's a growing loss of trust by those who care about their objective well-being.

Really? They're quite connected.

If the architecture of the web changes to one where people only see content that they've asked to see, and that kills advertising, it would also put a significant damper on anyone else whose business involves injecting unwanted content into a viewer's consciousness. Propagandists are the first to come to mind.

If it can become prohibitively expensive to sway an election by tampering with people's information, then the alternative (policies that actually benefit the people) will become more popular, leading to reduced unrest.

Democracy is having a bad time lately because its enemies have new weapons for use against it. If we break those weapons, it starts working again.

Some technical details for the curious:

- Runik originally started as a webapp but I rewrote it as a desktop app for performance and hosting cost reasons. Working with the Wails framework has been great coming from a web background.

- There’s no web scraping under the hood — runik uses the wiki’s public API to fetch content.

- The biggest challenge has been parsing content itself. Content varies in quality and the markup can be inconsistent. There wasn’t really an off-the-shelf wikitext parser for Go, so I took it as a challenge to write my own (still incomplete) wikitext parser.

- Kindle support, despite requiring proprietary software (kindlegen) to compile a valid dictionary, was surprisingly easier to implement than kobo support. Kobo requires the words to be organized into a trie and encrypted. Fortunately, there's a great tool called dictutil (https://github.com/pgaskin/dictutil) that handles most of that! Kobo also doesn’t allow for custom dictionary names, hence the awkward dicthtml-[r] prefix if you use a kobo.

Over the next year I’m looking to, improve parsing, include definition formatting options, and add support for more devices.

Java also has to maintain backwards compatibility at (almost) all cost, so it has a lot of warts that it can't or won't remove. For example, I think there are like 4 or 5 different types of switch statements/expressions.

I also think that checked exceptions are a major flaw (particularly because they don't work well with lambdas) but I don't foresee them getting removed anytime soon.

> only those in control of training the handful of "big popular AI models" are the gatekeepers of all knowledge.

I think that's certainly the case now, and it will be for a while, but slowly we're getting closer to that "AI personal assistant" sci-fi inspired future, where everything runs on "your" infra and gathers data / answers questions locally. You'd still need "raw" data access for that. A way to micro-pay for that would certainly help, imo.

> "probably a good idea to not have nuclear materials launching until that's been resolved entirely"

This isn't an issue at all: fission reactors aren't hazardous until after they first start up (go critical), which in the space electric-propulsion context means after (if) they've successfully launched, and are no longer in the vicinity of Earth.

At any rate, China is apparently[0] moving in this direction, regardless of what the US does.

You’re on the money and that’s exactly why I think Grammarly will struggle. OpenAI/Gemini/Claude will get embedded further. Gemini is already on gmail. Getting OpenAI and Claude incorporated is trivial. Guess what? Once Apple figures out what they’re doing with AI (which I hope is to buy Anthropic) they will take whatever is out there and incorporate them into iOS/MacOS just as they’ve done for so many third-party app ideas in the past.

Your assumption set: conventional factory space, idle humans, traditional management, ad-hoc process with skilled managers. This is similar to the "job shop" mentality in (dying) manufacturing. You additionally assume general purpose magic hardware that can usefully do anything.

Reality: Most value is in shrinking things, excluding humans, automating management, carefully designed process, and specialist hardware that does a subset of things very well. Relying on human(oid)s is a sure-fire way to suck.

It's not supposed to be scientifically meaningful it's a reprinted press release that is supposed to spin a narrative that makes Amazon workers feel insecure about their jobs and investors feel confident that those wages will shortly be converted into dividends.

You can tell what the Wall Street Journal's true feelings are about automation by reading an article about retirement and dividing the number of times they use the term "AI" by the number of times they use the phrase "demographic/retirement crisis" e.g. in https://www.wsj.com/finance/investing/blackrock-larry-fink-a...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Federal_Reserve

Although an instrument of the U.S. government, the Federal Reserve System considers itself "an independent central bank because its monetary policy decisions do not have to be approved by the president or by anyone else in the executive or legislative branches of government, it does not receive funding appropriated by Congress, and the terms of the members of the board of governors span multiple presidential and congressional terms."[11]

I also think it’s funny that so many comments assume they would have lax accounting for the extra $500K, or that the artists could have casually asked for another $500K of old bills to use as filler and the request would have been granted.

The Fed is extremely rigorous in tracking these things. It isn’t a couple guys in a room playing casually with millions of dollars. Even the retired bills are thoroughly monitored and tracked through their destruction.

Precompiled headers are generally better for system/3rd-party headers. Module are better than PCHs for headers you own, although in some cases you may be better off not using them at all. (I say these because the benefit depends on the frequency with which you need to recompile them, and the relative coupling etc.) Depending on how heavy each one is in your codebase, and how often you modify global build settings, you may have a different experience. And neither is a substitute for keeping headers lightweight and decoupled.
Show HN: MCP-Teleprompter – Stop repeating yourself to LLMs
by web-cowboy | 2025-07-01 18:31:12+00:00
I got tired of typing the same detailed instructions to Claude every time I wanted specific help. "Remember my coding standards, avoid these patterns, format output like this..." over and over.

So I built a simple MCP server that lets you save prompt templates and reuse them with a tag system. Create a prompt once, then just type ">> code-review" or ">> music-discovery" and it pulls in all your detailed instructions with variable substitution.

Under the hood it's just markdown files with {{variable}} syntax. The MCP integration means it works with any client that supports the protocol (I use it with Claude Desktop and Cursor).

The use case that sold me on building this was music recommendations. Instead of re-explaining my Spotify workflow and preferences every time, I created one comprehensive template. Now I just tag it and fill in my current mood. I also use it a ton at work to make progress on Linear tickets or add new APIs.

It's basically solving the "I wish I could save this prompt" problem that comes up when you start using LLMs for regular workflows. Nothing fancy, just practical (ymmv).

Just published, but been using it locally for some time. Hope it proves useful to someone. Feedback welcome.

The piece that I don't like about this is trying to standardize how to "spell" setting attributes, properties, and events in a single namespace by using sigils. JavaScript isn't Perl or K and the whole `@` vs. `.` vs `?` feels alien to the language (in my opinion). It also doesn't feel like something that could be used correctly by a component author who wanted to pass props _through_ the component they own to another component they don't.

I would expect to use something more like namespaces, where the default would be shorthand `on:`, `attr:`, `prop:`, `propOrAttr:` (maybe this is the default?) but where an explicit namespace declaration could move them if you for whatever reason needed to support XHTML 5.1 and your document already used the `on:` namespace for something else (not that _that_ is a thing right now, but why not be prepared?)

I searched about this and found a German beekeeper with such hives,

In [1] he can not detect the Varroa within the hive, nevertheless he notice the behavior of the hive is as if it had it. In [2] the hive is already dead, then is when he find the Varroa. In the comments on [2], one beekeeper explains that when the combs are twisted the mites fall into the combs rather than onto the floor which is traditionally used to detect them ( The sugar [3] or CO2 technique to detect Varroa in any type of hive is recommended by other beekeepers in the comments).

[1] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iYKL7hrp23k HIIVE Confusion

[2] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YsdHyRdpfB0 All the bees dead - why Varroa was so treacherous here

[3] By comments on other videos about the topic, this needs around 200 bees which are placed in a container with grids to which sugar is added. When shaken, the Verroa falls and a count can be made. The topology of this hive makes it difficult to gather this amount of bees (in the video [2] one can see that the hive would have to be dismantled).

Because going >50% over-budget isn't a good way to further anyone's career in exhibit design, engineering and construction.

I have a friend who works at a firm which specializes in engineering and constructing exhibits for museums and all kinds of public spaces. There's a whole industry ecosystem around doing this. They get brought in on contracts by design firms which specialize in permanent installation exhibits who get hired by the person responsible for exhibits at a museum or exhibit space. It's no different than most niche specialty industries. Even though it's comparatively small, there are still thousands of sites and hundreds of firms. People who do this specialize in it, develop long-term careers and have resumes they care about. Jobs for firms and people come by reputation and word of mouth. Delivering on time, on spec and on budget is crucial for survival. The facilities manager for this Fed building hired an exhibit space manager who developed a budget for this public tour project and then put it out to exhibit design firms for bids. The project was approved on a fixed budget and time frame. The overall budget the exhibit space manager submitted to the facilities manager certainly included the cost of the cash in the cube.

But the bigger reason no one was cavalier about just filling it up with $100 bills is that this exhibit is different because the exhibited artifact is of uniquely high-value (and unlike a Rembrandt, immediately spendable), so it probably had to have a security assessment and is very likely insured against loss (not just theft but fire/water damage etc). The cost of insuring and securing the exhibit was calculated before the budget was ever approved. Adding another 50% in cash would increase the insurance premium.
