Show HN: Pream-team A TUI app that list PRs on multiple GH repos from your team
My team touches multiple repositories, it is difficult to get an overview of all open PRs for my team.
It helps me prioritise reviewing team PRs, since my inbox gets full of GitHub notifications and I can miss new pull requests until someone pings me.

This TUI app attempts to solve that issue. It caches the GitHub api responses so that you can open and close it often without loosing the previously fetched PR list (fetching a list of PRs can be slow due to GH search api rate limit). It displays the timestamp of the fetched PRs so you know if you would like to refresh to prevent the list from being too outdated.

Any suggestions on how to improve the code or UX are more than welcome!
Text prompts aren't an essential part of this technology. They're being used as the interface to generation APIs because it's easy to build, easy to moderate, and for the discord models like Midjourney it's easy for people
to copy your work.

With a local model you can find latent space coordinates any way you want and patch the pixel generation model any way you want too. (the above are usually called textual inversion and LoRAs.)

I would personally like to see a system that can input and output layers instead of a single combined image.
They would also, presumably, need to provide a whole native OS api for a variety of syscalls (etc.) that wouldnt otherwise be supported.

To be fair, it's vastly more easy to impact such as the DNS servers used or user tracking where you have jurisdiction, than to impact "war, crimes, poverty, hunger, diseases".

You can't "fix" war or famine or disease in a faraway country, really. You can try to impact with stuff like aid, or sanctions, or cooperation, but the actual impact on the ground can vary wildly.
Most probably you already learnt the alphabet in the past, and there is 0 cognitive load for your brain to parse it. Unless you come from a language using another alphabet, but then unfortunately you need to bow to Latin alphabet rule over programming languages in any case.
So you actually agree that keeping the policy data in a library is a good thing, you're just saying that it should be a separate library?

I appreciate your response. I apologise if my initial response seemed too hostile. I've seen the claim made a handful of times on Hacker News that Tinder somehow games the results to maximise engagement. Admittedly I've been waiting since the last thread about Tinder to refute this point. I apologise for targeting you in doing so.

Spotify's virtues became table-stakes last decade. What was once deservedly lauded as top-quality design and an incredible, high-value product has become... well... just normal.

This phenomenon interests me broadly, beyond just Spotify. In the worlds of hardware, architecture, and human organization, innovations become iconic. They're remembered and studied for decades or centuries. There's an incredible staying power, where the implementation becomes the backing metaphor for the next iterative leap.

In the software world, this just doesn't really happen. For a few years a sizable portion of emerging consumer brands asked their design team to "make it look like headspace," and that gave way to the generic, faceless cartoons of corporate animations (ie, it just dissolved into the next trend). We've seen countless clever teams introduce clever tactics that quickly proliferated, leaving the original step in innovation largely forgotten. Spotify was (for an entire decade!) a shining star of impeccable product design, but now that's just normal. In software, culture just quickly and seamlessly moves on.

The capabilities to lower several hundred of kilograms of explosives on several points in the deep and muddy waters of the Baltic is not something you can do with some training and a backpack full of kit.

You need a specialized boat to do so, if possible with a submarine. Like the SS-750 which was there a few days before the explosion.

Spotify is actually trying very hard to expand in different markets - audiobooks and podcasts were big moves. Unfortunately, these markets really don't play well with their core proposition.

I honestly don't understand why certain giant companies are obsessed by integration; instead of trying to stuff everything in one UI, why not integrate backends (to leverage economies of scale) while keeping UIs separate? So you can cater for each audience in different ways, and keep everyone happy. It's basically "MVC for businesses", just build a different view for the the models you already have. The savings supposedly obtained by unified UIs are so often offset (or worse) by massive losses of core customers.
Couldn't agree more. I hate Spotify and its UI. Like many modern big apps, user experience seems to be an afterthought.

Recently it started showing me some related playlists that makes no sense - I now have to ignore a big portion of the UI because it's useless, feels like I'm using an app with ads.

But it's hard to go back to downloading albums after trying the convenience of a service like that.

I tried Google Music, but somehow it was even worse than Spotify, but that's about of what I expect of Google these days.

I'll be trying Deezer, Tidal and Apple Music soon.
> Words can’t hurt you.

Tell that to Samuel Paty, his decapitated ghost would be thrilled to hear that.
How exactly? How did you test the results from your studies? Even for experts not easy to understand or articulate the risks in a lot of situations. Listing a long set of warnings isn't usually helpful in making an good decision.
> lowering several hundred kilograms of explosives in deep water with no visibility

You mean the 17th century technology pioneered with diving bells? Like using some rope or a cable?

Edit: pioneered with. You just need a diver who would drive the pilot cable to the exact place, then you just rope the load to that cable. But sure, ignore the common sense in the presence of angst.
> especially the part where AI would somehow differentiate extremely visually similar species from each other

We have an AI for this exact task now, Seek by iNaturalist. It keeps getting rave reviews.

The only problem is that it's terrible at identifying things. I have a picture of an elephant seal that it is certain actually shows a clouded monitor lizard.
All of this is because of the technological change (MP3, internet speed) not because of the streaming service.
People have been claiming that Reddit has been enshittified (not with that exact term) since it was first created. People were already longing for the good old days when I first began using Reddit in ~2010.

Any attempt at pinpointing the enshittification is bound to be extremely subjective. What is clear is that it has been a continuous decline for a long time.

Or... the reduction in regulation could rather increase the problems? I'm not definitively saying that'd be the case, but there have been cases in other industries that I've at least heard about, such as the correlation, perhaps causation, between decreased railway regulation and large train crashes and disasters.
>This is slightly ridiculous, IMHO: You can buy more if you want, just split transactions. And of course no-one stops you from buying a trolley-full of vodka and bleach.

You can split transactions, but committing suicide takes effort, and a relatively significant rate of suicides are impulsive. For impulsive suicide, having a barrier or interruption can prevent the attempt. Something as small as a phone call interrupting you as you get the pills out could be sufficient to move past a particular impulse.

There is also a huge difference in suicide attempt method depending on gender. Women tend to gravitate towards pills, while men are more likely to use a gun.
Currently 30% of the comments in this thread are you claiming that. Why are you so invested in this that you resort to spamming it all over? Someone else pointed out that this yacht traveled through germany and poland too. Nobody knows anything substantial, even if they did, we wouldn't be able to tell truth from fud.
It's not only bizarre but counterproductive. In theory you could create a DNS resolver that only blocks unambiguous threats, like actual malware domains, and then people would have a reason to opt in. But as soon as you start adding things to the list that give the users a reason to stop using it, they stop using it.
Personally I fall into the camp of Tailwind is great (if you use it in a sensible way). TailwindUI and to more of an extend, Catalyst is awful. The fact they have the nerve to call it 'easy', 'usable', etc is laughable.

The snails pace updates on TailwindUI are bad enough, in the time it takes them to release one tiny ~20 line component you'll see half a dozen new and better UI frameworks pop up. But to add insult to injury their obssession with over the top React and Vue usage on the most basic of components just highlights how disconnected from the reality of web development they've become.

It's a CSS framework. I shouldn't be seeing Next, Nuxt, React, Vue or whatever 'hot thing of the week' they're gawping at.

Where tailwind on its own shines is inside a Laravel project with blade components. They are their own individual, reusable and extendable items. Wheather thats better or worse than css classes is up for debate however.
> The flip-side is that most of those metal bands now make almost no money on people listening to their music compared to what they did when they sold CDs through a lot of indie record companies.

I was a roadie on my friend's metal band around 2000-ish, they were not in any record company and just sold their CDs through DIY, during live shows, word of mouth, etc. My point is not all bands are in a record company, most are just doing it via DIY. Now, these indie, DIY bands, whatever you call it can now upload and share their music worldwide. That's a huge win.

Articles like this one really benefit from some references and footnotes. I had trouble finding sources for the skeletal remains being found with lead accumulation, for example.

It is interesting how the author describes lead poisoning as likely being more common amongst the elite. Comparing this to the current state of the world, it seems to affect areas of the world where infrastructure may be weaker[1].

But the post didn't say that. It just described the benefits of using it.
Sometimes Spotify swaps them for others by the same artist. One of my favorite instrumentals got swapped out for the version with vocals which I can't stand. I can't for the life of me understand why it could be a licensing issue.

Curious to know how a UI person would appreciate Spotify UI.
for me for example it's the tactile feedback. Smartphones are boring in tactile sense. On the other hand, taking a photo with a manual film camera is completely different: you must load/unload the film, be careful to not rotate the film too much when getting it back into container, manually adjusting focus, advancing the film and hearing all of this or even manually developing the film for bigger nerds. With walkmans it's probably the same but with cassetes - loading/unloading, connecting headset, all the mechanical sounds, different buttons, wheel volume controls, weird designs and colors. We just don't get this kind of tactile&sound feedback with modern laptops&smartphones and their colors are usually boring too, esp in recent years
Spotify has the same distributors. But the absolute vast majority of money goes to the big labels.
> However, you can’t talk about the crimes of occupants in France in, say, a newspaper, or any broadcast channel, or anything that has an audience

If I'm reading your racist dogwhistles correctly, "occupants of France" would be muslims or brown/black people? Don't you worry, plenty of shit-tier "news" in France make it their life goal to cover every single crime committed by someone who cannot trace their lineage to 15th century France. (cf. Valeurs Actuelles) Hell, there are multiple political parties founded around those ideas, that don't forget to chime in any time anything happens.

Honestly, I'm kinda tired of the constant whining about Spotify. But in many ways, it showed me, that when you have a wide customer base and your product is a simple "wrench", you will be surprised how different each people try to use the same tool. Most of them don't understand that you can't drill with it, nor you can weld with it.

Ok, what do I mean by this? People want to turn a streaming service into a music streaming and organizing tool that can fit every user's weird OCD. I mean there are people out there, who create a new playlist for EVERY ALBUM they listen to, removing and reordering songs in the album for their taste. This person was requesting a feature to be able to hide and reorder songs in an album because they're tired of creating a new playlist for every album. I don't want to judge people, ohh boy there are weird people out there...

Same thing with recommendations. You might see this all the time, you have a group of people who have a bad experience with Spotify discovery system, and then you have people like me, who are happy with it, and works perfectly well, for ME. But I listen to a specific genre of music, and if I like an artist I "follow" them on Spotify. I try to do my best, so Spotify has a chance to figure out what I like. Hence, Discover Weekly is mostly good, every 4 or 5 weeks (for whatever reason) it's fucking great.

> I might have been naive, but when I started paying for Spotify Premium, I thought my money was going to the artists that I was listening to.

Let's track back a bit...

> Growing up in Tunisia, piracy was the norm. Our debit cards didn’t work internationally, and publishing companies never thought of us as a viable market to bother with.

Harrr, surely there was no way to buy a single music CD in the whole of Tunisia.

But I'm not judging, I did music piracy in the past. But thinking that your €5-10 monthly subscription magically will feed every artist that you listen to is idd naive. I've been a premium user for the past 10 years. During this time I've spent x20 more money on concert tickets, merch, and music CDs than before. If I have a good year, I usually go to 10-15 concerts a year from clubs to arenas, and even travel abroad if I have to. Because this is the only way you can support your favorite artists. But let's just spend nothing on them, use Spotify, and complain about how Big Corp pays nothing to artists. Meanwhile, record labels are standing on the side, laughing at this, wiping the tears of joy with a banknote. There is nothing more exciting than Discover Weekly showing you a brand new band (for you) and you realize the band will play in your country in 2 months. Without Spotify, I would not know about them, let alone go to the concert.
I find it weird that people won't eat meat and poultry, but still eat fish and seafood and sometimes cite environmental reasons.

Most fish are caught and some sea based farming efforts have been pretty terrible for the environment.

I reckon if you want to eat meat still you should mostly be eating chicken.
Of course, but not at Chinese students:)
I feel the same, ChatGPT barely beats Google searches for me nowadays.

For example, on a side project I used to explain it shortly and the issue I am facing, mostly looking to discover packages or libraries that can help me build it.

Over 3 months ago GPT4 used to jump straight to the point and recommend alternative scenarios and packages. Now it just gives me a giant text with considerations for the whole project, but rarely actually tackles the issue I am having. Even if I ask it to actually go in-depth into whatever I am interested in it usually doesn't and repeats the same surface level information.

There are also "shopping cart tokens" which you can put on your keychain, and as they are large enough to unlock the cart, but small enough to not get stuck, they can be directly pulled out, and you don't risk to break your key.

It's not always people. Spotify has a spam problem. With the distribution key Spotify uses (correctly, if not precisely, described in the article), you don't even need stolen account credentials. You can just sign up a thousand accounts, and listen to your own fake artists, and actually get paid more than you spent on those accounts. All you need to do is play a lot more songs than the average listener. Make your spam songs short (slightly more than 1 minute seems to be enough to defeat Spotify's anti-spam algorithms, judging by the spam I find), and you can rack up a ton of plays.

And if you do that, you should even have room to put in a few plays of the big pop stars. So that you have someone protesting if your spam accounts get closed by spotify and their plays wiped.
What I love about Spotify and think shows that their engineering culture is really solid, is their progressive web app. I only use Ubuntu on my different computers, and my first task after a fresh install is to log into Spotify and save their web app on my machine. It just works: the icon appears in my favourites, the app renders really nicely in a native-like window, etc. It is by far the best progressive web app experience I have had. I totally forget that it's just a website with the browser UI switched off.
> They make it clear on the website that it is optional so that it cannot be used for censorship.

But then why is it blocking those sites? All that would do is reduce adoption and thwart their stated purpose.
Maybe the parallel is more in driving the hype train?

- Optimists tend to be promoted, so the higher up in the organization
you are, the more optimistic you tend to be. If one manager says
"I can do that in 4 months", and another only promises it in 6
months, the 4 month guy gets the job. When the software is 4 months
late, the overall system complexity makes it easy to assign blame
elsewhere, so there's no way to judge mis-management when it's time
for promotions.

- There's a disconnect between engineering and marketing. It's not
surprising -- marketing wants all the whiz-bang features, it wants to
run in 16 megabytes, and it wants it yesterday. Although engineering
would like the same things, it is faced with the reality of time
limits, fixed costs, and the laws of nature.

- The complexity of our system software has surpassed the ability of
average SGI programmers to understand it. And perhaps not just average
programmers. Get a room full of 10 of our best software people, and
you'll get 10 different opinions of what's causing the lousy
performance and bloat. What's wrong is that the software has simply
become too complicated for anyone to understand.

- There was never an overall software architect

- We should sell 'bloat credits', the way the government
sells pollution credits

- SGI software has a cracked engine block, and we're trying to fix it with a tune-up.

That's exactly the problem people have with the EU. They care (and cost a lot of money) about small things while completely ignoring actual issues. Nobody really wants some digital IDs or censored DNS. Fix the damn war happening right on the border and the resulting energy crisis (I don't mean by buying Russian product). Also, stop making the energy crisis even worse.
I'd also add that, in comparison to its competition, it's fairly "open" API-wise.

TIDAL: no API. Soundcloud: API registration disabled. Apple Music: paywalled. Beatport: API registration disabled. Etc etc.

That isn't to say you can get everything via the API (you can't get monthly listeners, only an abstraction of it on a 0-100 scale, or artist's pick you sometimes see on artist pages), but compared to whom they're matched against, kudos to them.
Not an excuse to not explain what happened. If they want to maintain trust, they should give some explanation.
The conversion is accurate up to 15 digits. Round-tripping through floats should not cause artifacts if you know what you are doing and remain within that 15 digit bound all time, and I believe that same applies for all basic arithmetic operations. So the question is, what are actually the cases where floats introduce "artifacts"
Original copyright in the US was 14 years with the option to extend for 1 additional 14 year term. In 1831 it was changed to 28 years for the base term and the option to renew it for an additional 14 years or 42 years total. That was the copy right law for nearly 200 years.

Today it is actually 95 years or 70 years after the death of the author, whichever one is sooner.

I think a return to the 1831 copyright regime is pretty fair. Even just 28 years no extensions is enough time to have a full career in something.
