Show HN: I Made an AI Image Editor That Edits Like a Pro
I built UnderlayX AI, an open-source AI image editor that combines multiple tools into one seamless experience. No need to juggle different apps—everything is in one place.

What You Can Do:

Customize Backgrounds – Change, replace, or remove backgrounds effortlessly.

Change Object Positions – Move elements freely within your image.

Remove Backgrounds – Get clean cutouts with AI-powered background removal.

Image Overlay – Stack images, blend elements, and create layered compositions.

Text Behind Image – Easily place text behind objects without manual masking.

Tune Image – Adjust brightness, contrast, saturation, and apply filters.

Logos Behind Image – Seamlessly embed logos behind objects for a realistic effect.

Would love to hear your thoughts and feedback!
This has been the case for several years now, I think. The official docs suggested Next for a while, but it got too complicated. Vite is the standard replacement now.
This is an administration that is actively ignoring other EOs such as anti-DEI initiatives. An administration that has come out and said that either all humans are neither male or female, or both male and female at once. This is an administration that either tried to send $50M in condoms to Gaza, or thought their followers were too stupid to believe the lie. This is also the administration that hates the military, police, and Americans in general. None of this is debatable. It's backed up by action. So, not surprised why we'd think they'd be burdened by the law.

Yeah, but that doesn't make them any less angry.
It's sooo easy to blow it when illustrating super intelligence. Interestingly, I thought Phenomenon with John Travolta did a pretty reasonable job -- when they asked him to name as many animals as he could in a minute, and he was bored and made it harder (by giving them for each letter of the alphabet?) and when he says to a friend that he should redesign/paint the parking lot outside his store because he could add an extra space and at the same time make the traffic flow smoother.
Actually consuming content in any form is even better.

What the Last Trump Tariffs Did, According to Researchers
Sure but the point of research is to improve understanding. Today there is correlation, tomorrow we find causation.

Are you suggesting we should stop looking for a physical cause of depression? Many neurologists believe that psychological conditions map onto physical structural or chemical differences. Maybe that is the case, maybe that’s not the case but we use the tools we have to do that research so that we can better understand, and if necessary treat, these conditions.
How do you think that "working hard" bit works and produces results?

Repetition!

If you're learning a language and trying to learn vocabulary, a new alphabet, etc, anything that involves lots of recall being necessary, spaced repetition is an excellent aid because without the basic shit you can't do any of the rest.

Plus it's supposed to be consistent over a (very long) time, not a "quick fix" so it's actually really the opposite of the "get slim quick" type schemes.

It's probably not especially useful when you're not cramming stuff/trying to build up a base to stand on, which lets you actually get on with the actual meat of the learning.

I think the point is the bad-faith effort to erase trans people by asserting that chromosomes are all that matter falls down because obviously there are people running around with unusual chromosomes, so if it was an actual good faith effort they would be defining new (rare) genders to map to these chromosome patterns.

But it’s not good faith, and nobody really believes that chromosomes are the most important definition of gender. It’s just a convenient way to erase trans people.
You're right, flash degradation and deterioration of write speeds is pretty much primary reason why older phones feel slow and laggy.

A lot of - especially older or mid/low range - phones have cheap eMMC storage which is signifcantly worse at wear leveling than the higher end UFS storage.
I did. It gave me absurdly long intervals. It kind of assumed that since I can remember some things easily (usually because I learned them outside of Anki), it totally makes sense to assume that about everything.

I tried anki multiple times, ended up disliking it each time. FSRF did not made it better.
And maybe that's fine because it isn't a signal of ideology like "pregnant person" is. Don't forget that if scientists were using these terms, they were likely already doing so because of political pressure, so it is good to stop it in cases where it's nothing to do with their research (eg. transgender parturients). Of course it doesn't mean this order isn't ham-fisted, but research is often polluted by politics because it helps get funding as well as researchers are pretty politically biased in some fields.
This issue was with 'Add'. My Mini is still hampered by this flaw.

Theyre speed running Russia's 1990s economic crash into oligarchy.
I haven't quite convinced myself either way, whether learning a big list and then anki them for recall is better, or having a big list on anki but only introduce two of them a day. personally I find it makes it much more enticing to learn two new phrases each day, rather than trying to remember same 50 phrases all week.
it's a pretty narrow set of people that want or need to be able to memorize and recall a bunch of facts as efficiently as possible. mostly med school students and language learners, where this stuff obviously works.
It has been the case for years. Dan abramov admitted that CRA is on maintenance mode in 2021, but as the issue states, "CRA deprecation is not noted anywhere".

After the recent blow up which resulted in the linked GitHub issue, react core team has officially added note that "CRA is deprecated" and marked CRA as deprecated in npm.

One would argue that it is already the case since, but it is also the case that Vite is current goto for React SPA, but react team still disagree on it.
Zitron on AI Skepticism
I'm 100% certain Chiang is wrong about art. I'm a product manager, not an artist, but I write many things as part of my job, and Claude in particular is a better writer than I am.

Here's how Claude rewrote that, you can argue whether in this particular instance it did better than I did :-)

While I respect Chiang's perspective on AI and art, my experience as a product manager has shown me otherwise - Claude routinely writes better than I do, despite writing being central to my role.

Unfortunately, these are overloaded terms, and we need to dereference them. Otherwise we end up with weird expectations that contradict your egalitarianism. See: "Feminine Mystique," "Second Sex", and "Revolution at Point Zero".

> If there are too many returns, the machine doesn't get fed; it gets punished.

On Amazon? I highly doubt it. The threshold for “too many returns” is probably rarely hit. MicroSD’s are super cheap - people don’t return things that are cheap because they don’t consider it worth their time. Then these companies go and pay people for good reviews and just keep flipping inconsistent/garbage products.

If punishment were a real thing that companies had to deal with then this wouldn’t continue to be a problem. It’s been this way for many, many years. Amazon has no equal competitor, there’s nowhere else for folks to go and people rarely look at the specific vendor they’re buying from. As far as they’re concerned it’s all Amazon.

I'm personally indifferent to 4-day working week. If that works for people, and if that improves their lives, I'm here to root for you.

The downside of defining things like pointer provenance in the IL is that it ties the semantics of your IL to C. If you are writing another language and want to have very different symantics - say a flat memory model where pointers are integer indicies into memory, or definied signed overflow - then you will have to be very careful and constantly have to fight or work around the C semantics. Basically the same downside as when you use C as a compilation target (like for example Nim does/did).

as much as I dislike (understatement) Oracle my few encounters with it not only showed ability to provide an "API" through SQL to client apps, there was also apparently quite capable JVM inside.

Really complex things could be delivered, main issue was always tradeoffs of Oracle itself (portability of Oracle vs Performance loss compared to more native systems) and licensing.

I don’t understand this point of view at all.

Gravity is established science and billions of dollars a year are spent studying it, including efforts to refute parts of our understanding.

How does acknowledging the reality of current scientific understanding in any way “shut down” further exploration? It sounds like the opposite — that peoples’ discomfort with the current state of understanding should be a reason to revert science to a much older state and never mention the subject again.
Trying to run complex CI/CD for automated build/test toolchains for building iOS apps.

We have a Mac Studio dedicated to that purpose. Periodically something on it stops working (software updates are a common reason). Trying to run CI/CD on a bare metal consumer oriented OS is an exercise in frustration.

It’s also handy to be able to sandbox different environments from each other. Once you have multiple projects that need different versions of Xcode, or even macOS (a good example is wanting to spin things on a beta), you need VMs or multiple machines. (And yes I’m aware of tools like Xcodes, but testing on a beta of macOS requires a reboot and a lengthy install.)
The most common ones are for QA testing and CI pipelines.
Interesting how the reasoning differs between models, e.g. DeepSeek trying the brute force tricks

Wouldn’t one hit wonders still be an issue? They might get evicted relatively fast anyway but assuming an LRU each will still take a cache entry until they go through the entire thing and finally get evicted.

Although if that’s your concern you can probably just add a smaller admission cache in front of the main cache, possibly with a promotion memory.
If you convince someone smart who errs towards logic of your axioms, they’ll convince themselves to do whatever you want.

> In this case, I would say the effects are much more obvious. Just take the example in the article. The compiler cannot replace a pointer access with its value if there has been any other pointers access in between.

I have no idea what you mean. The whole point of this discussion is that the example in the article should not be optimized in the manner they're describing, because it would be wrong. That is... a good thing. Not a bad thing.

And the compiler certainly could replace a pointer access with its value if there has been other pointer access in between, as long as that pointer wasn't leaked away into some opaque place via an integer.

> The compiler also cannot reorder any statements with pointer accesses. They would basically behave as memory barriers (if I understand them correctly).

No, I don't think you understood what I'm saying. See above. It would still be perfectly legal for the compiler to transform

char p[1] = {0};
opaque();
return p[0];

to

opaque();
return 0;

under what I wrote above, the intervening statement notwithstanding.
Obviously depends on your memory. I found that in the past I read voraciously, and spend a lot of time tinkering. Which was good and fun but I sometimes found I'd forgotten the stuff by the time it would have been useful, particularly when learning about topics I wasn't using day by day. Anki an SRS partially solves that.

It's a trade-off though, I now read less and tinker less. Do I regret that, you bet. But still Anki/SRS works for me, especially because I often do it at times when I wouldn't be able to effectively read/tinker (perhaps tired, or getting kids to sleep). That's a long way of saying, do what's effective for you, but there's no point of being so dismissive of what others are doing.
I didn’t know WebStorm no longer uses a custom type engine
My comment was a little bit short. I have used plenty of window manages in the past: window maker, blackbox (now dead I guess?), gnome (from the era of RedHat 6.2 onwards), KDE, Ubuntu desktops (I don't know if is Gnome tweaked or something else). Perhaps I stay loyal to i3 because it was the first tiling manager that I tried and seemed pretty straightforward to be productive with it. Have to try other ones as well but never find time to do so. Same story happened to me with Vim. I still need to give Emacs a shot.

The reason why we know how these media storage devices work is that our valuable data is being stored on them! We need to know how fragile that storage is and the only way we can do that is to have all the engineering data/test info.

SSD and MicroSD/thumb drive and even HD manufacturers have a damn hide by being so secretive about their devices—of course it's never the manufactures who suffer the burden of data loss, it's the customer.

What's desperately needed are open-source manufacturers who will publish the necessary data.

This problem isn't new, sleazebag Kodak knowingly released shoddy unstable color stock in the 1950s and decades later precious family and wedding photos had faded to nothing.

Let that be a lesson, this solid-state storage shit hasn't been around long enough yet to know whether we'll be seeing a repeat of that Kodak fuckup.

My perspective is as a Canadian. The US GDP per capita is 7% above pre-Covid numbers, Canada's is 2% below. Or you can say our GDP per capita has diverged by 9% since COVID. Canada's cost of living is actually untenable right now. Canada can't hold the line long enough to do anything to the US.

To extend this to archival integrity without cooperation from the server/host, you'd need the client to sign the received bytes.

But then you need the client to be trusted, which clashes with distributing.

Hypothetically, what about trusted orgs standing up an endpoint that you could feed a URL, then receive back attestation from them as to the content, then include that in your own archive?

Compute and network traffic are pretty cheap, no?

So if it's just grabbing the same content you are, signing it, then throwing away all the data and returning you the signed hash, that seems pretty scalable?

Then anyone could append that to their archive as a certificate of authenticity.
