skysight-inc/HackerNews huggingface dataset:
I mean, it does work pretty similar to the windows task bar? If an application is open, it is listed there in the dock with a mark under it. You can pin applications to the dock or remove them via right clicking it. Right clicking on one will provide a list the windows which are open to which you can select from, as well as a "show all windows" option which will hide everything else, and visually show just the windows for that application (you can also just force-click on the app icon to do this).

The only difference I see is that the windows taskbar provides a preview thumbnail when hovering over the icons. In which case, there's apps you can get for that.
Try ordering a “just a cup of coffee” in AU/NZ and they will look at you with a blank expression. Espresso is the norm there.
I can highly recommend Andreas' YouTube updates if you're remotely interested in browser dev. Really fun.
Show HN: Convert Emails into RSS feeds (open-source)
Hi HN,

I love consolidating my newsletters into a centralized reading app like Reeder. IMO it makes for a better reading experience and prevents my email inbox from getting clogged with newsletters. However, Reeder doesn't support email newsletters and many of the ones I'm subscribed to don't support native RSS feeds.

There are some free services online that do the same thing (e.g. kill-the-newsletter.com), but I noticed several downsides:

- No long-term retention: old RSS posts are deleted to save space.

- Risk of blocklisting: being forced to use the same domain (@kill-the-newsletter.com) as everyone else increases the likelihood that an email newsletter can blocklist you from signing up.

- Self-hosting is non-trivial: Kill The Newsletter is also open source, but the self-hosting steps didn't seem that straightforward and also don't focus on exclusively leveraging free services.

On the other hand, while Email-to-RSS isn't necessarily a one-click-deploy solution, it's massively simplified to deploy by yourself, is customized to your domain, and is completely free (except for the custom domain itself)!

I would love to hear from the community: is this even the best way to read email newsletters? What does your setup look like? I honestly wonder if this was even worth spending my time on if there's a more elegant solution out there... :D
Ha, wow -- great minds think alike. Somehow I ended up at the exact same file (only went to one!) and was coming back to comment on exactly this line.

What makes this especially funny is that this is the very second line of the entire game, at least in the case of Red Alert! So very CPP.

For the curious: https://github.com/electronicarts/CnC_Red_Alert/blob/main/CO...
Where was that nightmare GDPR letter template again?
Err… what?
Agreed, I'm surprised that it hasn't gathered more buzz. It's the most impressive AI demo I've seen this year (in a year packed with impressive demos!)
This kind of makes sense to showcase the other tools available in their ecosystem, and is probably something they should have done a long time ago, when the Google suite entered the scene.
I also take this same approach on my phone. I'm on Android atm so I can use Nova Launcher for a completely blank home screen and then set a swipe gesture to bring up the search panel. On iPhone you can achieve similar by enabling removing everything from the home screen and using the app libary or search although it does look weird with the empty dock section at the bottom so I tended to just leave stuff like the browser in there.
Sustainable Software: Hacking Energy Waste One Line at a Time
Fwiw I hear good things about aerospace but haven’t yet had a chance to give it a shot.
> it just means the source is open, viewable

That's called source-available, unless "use it as per the licensing" includes further freedoms
Ugh. Can this asshole at least pretend that he’s not abusing his position in this administration?
Hundreds that specifically focus on noticing a page you’re currently viewing has been not only posted to but undergone significant discussion on HN, and then providing a summary of those conversations?

Or that just provide summaries in general?
All of this, though unless I have a planet-based joker, then I don't personally find the planets all that appealing - it really feels like a drop in the bucket compared to jokers in terms of base chips and mult.
I would be very interested in hearing the types/examples of moderation concerns that users posted. This has been a worry of mine whenever I accept UGC on a website, and it might be good for anyone who plans on hosting a similar service, a heads up on what to screen for.

I am very sad for the loss of this service and thank you for work you have had to go through to keep it online.
I suddenly realize the only thing I use the dock for is to right-click the trash to empty it.

How do you empty the trash? It's never even occurred to me... how do you get to the trash except via the dock?
Publish your site to the DWeb and transform it into a dynamic social profile
You can if you do it on radio.

Idk, I think it's also just fair to say that one finds Balatro fun. Not everything has to have a psychological basis for harm.
> If you have two choices and one is barely better than the other

I don't think "barely better" accurately represents the situation, since the other choice here literally allows sideloading. It's not barely better, it is better if you want to sideload apps. To paraphrase your meme, society has already been improved somewhat.
Motte: "They got caught getting benchmark data under the table"

Bailey: "one is free to trust their "verbal agreement" that they did not train their models on that, but access they did have."

Sigh.
I don't think most people realize how huge Mozilla is. Their annual revenue has been flirting breaking a billion dollars for some time now and was ~$500 mil as of 2023 - primarily due to 'partnering' with Google, which was always a bellwether to anybody who cared to see it. Wikimedia has never broken $200 million per year. In other words, it's Mozilla that could buy Wikipedia, not the other way around.
Podman is pretty good.
They don't even have the largest customer base. Google is serving AI Overviews at the top of their search engine to an order of magnitude more people.
The Wikimedia Foundation has developed many of the same corruption issues that Mozilla has. It would just be kicking the can down the road, and not very far at that.
Mozilla introduces a Terms of Use agreement for Firefox
I do not trust the scetchy guy running it

I do not trust their relationship with crypto

I do not trust their business model
aerospace is good!
Firefox has been trash for the past 10 years, let alone the Mozilla Foundation. There are some idealistic people that still vouch for them, they're only making a fool of themselves, lol.
I used to use Alfred, but I've since switched to using Raycast as I liked some of the UI integration a bit better. I recommend trying it out!

I am reasonably to very skeptical about the valuation of LLM firms but you don’t even seem willing to engage with the question about the value of these tools.

Show HN: Second cursor that guides users through any task
Gone are the days of filing tickets, chatting w/ a support agent, and digging through docs.

Pointer is a second cursor that can guide your users through any task. The goal is to cut tickets, reduce churn, and make users happier.

I want to call this an AI agent to get more views but I'm not. Let me know what you think.
You know, you might be right that in the end it was a settlement of sorts. I remember for a while they were fighting it specifically because it was about playlists (named groups of songs) which was not defined in the licensing in a way that clearly did or did not overlap with albums. The more I think about it, there was such a threat of refusing to renew licenses that it's possible they renewed with explicit language that prevented these playlists. I know for sure the playlists were purged. All said it was a hilarious amount of lawyer money over some of the dumbest CDs ever.
people say woke with a hard-r nowadays
Default osx spotlight search is just as good as Alfred? What’s different?
I recommend this video "This is Why We Still Play Tiberian Sun in 2025"

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qIbuqy6bI2Y
I completely agree, and I think this is most noticeable on online spaces like twitter. Relenting on a point even just a tad is perceived as being an agent of the "other side". So radical opinions, be it neo-nazism or white supremacy, end up shifting everything rightward. Because even though most people agree, usually that agreement needs to be qualified. And, you give an inch over and over and before you know it you're somewhere entirely different from where you've started.
I feel like I achieve the same app opening speed with built-in Spotlight e.g. `cmd+space me` opens Messages for me too, without any third party software
> ... and i'm memory-safe...

Go is memory safe..
hi! author here! it's a pipedream, I know, but it's a hope/goal of mine to, in the next video (the "why did you do this" video) to give some fuel/motivation to people that might be feeling like you describe. do you have any advice for me for what I can say in the upcoming video to someone that might not be as comfortable, as you say. I really do have a grasp for how hard what you're talking about is, and I've tried over my life (sometimes very hard, sometimes too hard) to help people I know to overcome it (sometimes successfully, sometimes not). When you're in survival mode every day, you might look at a project like this Doom one and go "yeah right! not in a million years could I do that with my current set of things weighing me down!". anyway, don't want to ramble, but if you (or anyone else reading) has any wisdom to share on how to talk about these things in a way that's effective or inspirational for people, I'd really love to learn.
> - There's still no good window manager for macOS. Rectangle is as close as it gets, but it's not good IMO because it only works on non full size windows. (the solution is just get ninja-like with three finger swipe, and endure using the mouse/trackpad more than you'd prefer)

I use Magnet and it does the job well. If you're familiar with it, I'd love to know why you don't think it's a good window manager. Or do you just mean there's not a good NATIVE window manager for the OS?
That's the standard tier of competence you expect from Ng. Academia is always close but no cigar.
It's crazy expensive because they want to pull in as much revenue as possible as fast as possible before the Open Source models put them outta business.
Put this back on HN when you can download it and try it out (like Servo).
Alfred does a lot more beyond just searching.
That's the idea behind individual license. It's a non-transferable license that's cheaper than business.
Yeah I definitely attempted but stellar chemistry isn’t something I’d say I’m comfortable with particularly at the level required to comprehend a paper. That said, the subject is very interesting to me.
Brave's optional stuff is opt in. If you don't like seeing the little icon for the Brave Wallet you can right click it to hide it.
I've been using SizeUp for window management on macOS for...15 years now I think? https://www.irradiatedsoftware.com/sizeup/
Agreed. Spotlight search does quite well for me. I think there is a discoverability problem with native mac functionality. People tend to install lots of software that duplicates native features
I think if GPT-5 is very underwhelming we could start to see some shifting of opinion on what kind of return on investment all of this will result in.
Logits are not probabilities... at least not in the way you understand probability. Probabilities mathematically are anything that broadly behaves like a probability, whereas colloquially probabilities represent the likelihood or the preponderance of a particular phenomenon. Logits are not either of those.
Honestly he’s famous for pedagogy and research papers, not real world products.

Not surprised it’s underwhelming
WordSegments – a daily word challenge game
With WordSegments you need to guess a 5-letter word within 6 guesses. After each guess, the correct and incorrect segments of each letter will be highlighted and you can use these to guide you toward the correct letters and word.

Have you tried Stage Manager mode? It kinda does what you want, but with the windows on the side rather than the bottom.
The voice is really good, especially small details like sharp air intake before a response to indicate tone. I guess the conversation topics weren't amazing but that's not really the point.

The problem I have is that if you want to engage with something like this, you need to pretend it's a human. As they say, the uncanny valley was pretty much successfully crossed. And to be honest, I don't want to pretend I'm talking to a human for a whole bunch of reasons.

The technically aspects are really impressive, but I think "pretending to be a human" in this way is a pretty scary goal. The cognitive dissonance was too strong and it was hard for me to continue a conversation very long at all. What does it even mean to have a conversation without theory of mind?
Why can't you start a trial and do just that? Doctors have discretion up to the practical limit of being sued by their patients.
I think it's time to bring this to the attention of the EU. The browser race to the bottom may be somewhat acceptable for entertainment, but it is my firm opinion that accessing online government services and banking infrastructure necessary for a modern life shouldn't require me to accept such terms.
Not quite, I still cared and I’ve personally written to congress about it. Surprisingly, I got a response. Unsurprisingly, the response I got was basically a diplomatic “We know better than you do, we don’t care what you think, we’re going to do it anyway”
Very little proof that woke did this vs. Carr just saying so. it sounds like most holdup was at the state level.

This is super cool. For starters, I can’t wait to use this to make all sorts of visual diagrams that I usually explain in Docs and never have the time to convert into visuals (processes, decision trees)

What would be super cool is if it could read design docs or better yet system architecture (idk not an engineer) to show how data flows in and out of systems. Rules and logic that apply to the data. How it’s transformed as it moves in and out of systems, etc..
>If you want to tell someone that exponentiating an area gives a rotation, you need to basically deal with the fact that that sentence sounds like nonsense.

It's not just an area though, it's an area with orientation and magnitude. It's the complex exponential function extended to 3 dimensions.

>By "unpedagogical" I mean: very hard to learn, and even when you learn it, often hard to explain. It's information that doesn't compress well, generalize well, or really convey direct understanding of what's going on. Maybe not the best word for this. Really, I just mean "bad".

I can see where you're coming from on the learning part. There are as many different ways of learning GA as there are teachers, and this does hold it back.

>To me it's incomplete knowledge; it needs to be improved upon so that it makes more sense for people who need to know it. In doing so it will also become easier to learn.

I wish you luck, and I hope that I find it on here someday.
I am a cheapskate and use Quicksilver. Command spacebar, app pops up.

I hate the Finder. I used to use an app called cols that resized finder windows to an appropriate size. Stuck it in the finder toolbar. I looked for the applescript but can't find it. How tough is it to fill the finder window with all the columns so that the Magic Mouse doesn't wag the columns back and forth? Just fill the window. Cols, anyone?
What a blessing to see your comment today. It's been a while. I hope this works in your favor, whatever that means.
I have found the experience very different than what the OP's experience is.

As you know the layoffs that happened were around the same time as the rest of the industry layoffs were happening (fashion firing), I don't feel like it had a significant effect on the culture.

FWIW, the change at Red Hat has always been hard to separate between the forces of IBM and the reality of changing leadership. In a lot of ways those are intertwined because some of the new leadership came from IBM. Whatever change there was happened relatively gradually over many years.

It's because when you do transfers, the banks will reconcile their accounts at the end of the day (e.g, if one bank deposits more to another, they will need to make up the difference with their own capital).

These cutoff means banks have certainty about the transaction, as these reconciliation is batched, rather than real time.
I tried reindexing a few times (each took a few hours) but spotlight search still rarely brought up the file/thing I was after. Examples:

Spotlight search would bring up a wikipedia entry for app store instead of the app store on my laptop: https://imgur.com/QV1w7Kq

Typing 'finder' and hitting enter (e.g. to browse for a file), would open finder settings, rather than finder itself.

I haven't used it in ~1 year, those are a couple of examples I can recall.

Vouching for librewolf. Not only does it not bother me with things like pocket and "Firefox sync", it also does not track me, and the browsing experience is genuinely superior.

I didn't realize how much webgl and other cruft slowed things down until I started using librewolf.

The one improvement I'm hoping for is that the project would be checked into the official Debian/Ubuntu/Fedora package repos as those are less risky than the repo controlled by the developers.
