Cursor hasn’t had unlimited auto for nearly a year now (although usage is generous).


I assume they mean how easy Plex makes it to share content across the internet. I setup a server, you download a client. No port forwarding, VPN shenanigans, etc


yes I agree, it does need some tech literacy to setup properly.


It’s not about tech literacy to setup, it’s about sharing my content with friends and family - there is no easy way to do it, even if everybody is tech savvy it’s still high friction.

The dream would be: anybody with a jellyfin install can add your library to theirs, anybody with the jellyfin client can be invited to browse your library.


I do this with friends and family. I'm not sure whether my solution is considered high friction. I gave them a router with openwrt installed, and a wireguard tunnel I set up, with a route to my jellyfin server. So they can point their jellyfin app on their TV to my server.


I have to say if Jellyfin could nail the library sharing then they would definitely be a much bigger alternative to Plex users on the fence imho


Any illegitimate email collection service already knows to strip out email subaddresses.

If you’re trying to avoid email spam, there’s not much difference in giving someone myname+foo@gmail.com versus just myname@gmail.com.


You could just use my.name@gmail.com for the no-alias version. So myname+foo@ works and my.name@ works but myname@ goes directly to the trash.


That can also be normalized.


The normalised version is what gets redirected to trash, according to GP's proposal. Legitimate senders who do not normalise have their mail delivered to the inbox.


Yea, gotta take all dots out on the username portion of Gmail address


In which case the Gmail user knows to mark mail without any dots in the address as spam.


That's the version that goes directly to the trash.


I did a hackathon many years ago (before LLMs) where I spent a serious amount of effort training a conventional machine learning algorithm and integrating it into a react native app. I had a genuinely impressive team to make this possible given it was 2016.

The winning team bought a bootstrap theme for $35 and made a landing page for a nonexistent app.


That doesn’t matter when you have the average. Even if you are somehow able to get 10000tok/s during off peak times, by virtue of how averages work, you’re still only getting 52M tokens per month (as calculated above).


While tone often portrays poorly over text, I think this is an example where the sarcasm is very overt. I don’t think anyone would think the comment is serious.


How many times will people fall for this? Public voting is a false sense of democracy, when every ballot looks like, “Do you want us to lower taxes, cure cancer, and [in small text] install surveillance at every intersection?”


The pricing doesn’t render properly on mobile. The responsive design puts what is presumably a table into a vertical stack, which means I have no idea which price corresponds to which feature.


Ugh, I’ve been wanting this forever.

I DON’T want Uber Eats to tell me I should order pizza tonight.

I do want to know when the delivery driver is outside.


This 100%. Hell, give me a way to write code to filter notifications and I'll do it myself.

I get so frustrated by apps that I need notifications on for but I don't want marketing BS, unfortunately there is no middle ground.

On top of filtering Apple should force app developers to segment their push notifications and allow users to block different types. This would be completely in line with Apple's _stated_ priorities and a great thing to advertise (I can imagine the commercials for it already).


I think you can do this on Android (or at least you used to be able to with Tasker when rooted, since it has [used to have] the ability to read notifications and dismiss notifications)


Some of the Uber competitors use Live Activities for when the delivery driver is on the way/outside, so you can bin their other notifications into a Notification Summary.

I really appreciate Notification Summaries and the distinction of Live Activities and "Time Sensitive" notifications as "can break out of summaries". Unfortunately each app has to opt in to using these other two things for their non-promotional stuff, and also can lie and mark their promotional stuff as "Time Sensitive" (I'm looking at you LinkedIn, which for me is now banned from all notifications forever, you misused them too much and I don't need you).


Yeah I turned off all uber app notifications. It's pretty annoying as now I don't know when the food has come or when the driver is here, but the amount of ads I will tolerate is exactly zero.


Uber is blatantly abusing push notifications for marketing, it is so bad ... for smaller apps this would be an App Store ToS violation and grounds for removal. The double standard with larger apps is very upsetting.


I don’t understand the concern of this. Let’s say it says you’ve used 1.521kg of CO2 today. How is that actionable?

A single flight from JFK to LAX produces around 20,000kg of CO2. Using the 8.3g value means a flight is equivalent to 2.41 billion tokens.


I really dislike when people don't see this. They try to cut 10 grams of CO2 per day while other industries (shipping, aviation, rails) produce hundreds of tons per day and even this transportation modes are less that 20% with most CO2 produced mainly being in energy production and used by industry.


I think it’s because this line of rationality, leads to people to realize how ridiculous some of the conservation efforts are.

Plastic bags, paper straws (wrapped in plastic), most realities of recycling, vehicle selections, etc.

Leads to a lot of unpopular things.


Plastic bags and papers straws is not about CO2 emissions and I wish people would stop repeating this like it's some "gotcha", it's about landfill and natural area pollution and damage to wildlife and natural areas, and that's how it's always been talked about by policy people who have advocated on this stuff.

Have you walked a beach in the last decade?


This makes sense and I'm with you, people that are polluting beaches and natural areas should face harder punishments. That being said I'm missing plastic straws for drinking cold coffee.


Nothing stopping you from carrying your own reusable straw around with you.

Finally, most of the (local, not even thinking about the developing world) pollution is not deliberate. It blows in from other places, usually. I live rural and I'm continually picking up plastic garbage from my ditch or back forest or fields that blows in from the nearby highway and roads, especially after garbage pickup day.

Production needs to be severely curtailed.


Rituals define a school of thought (or a religion). These are rituals of folks who want to prevent catastrophe through conservation. To each their own.

Ultimately, individual habits do add up. But with climate, one would be hard pressed to find evidence that conservation is the path forward. It does not work, unfortunately.


Sure, but that's all accounted for in per capita numbers.


It doesn't necessarily need to be actionable for now but at the moment there is an exponential growth in the datacenter power usages.

For now, sure it might be ridiculously minor, but when it starts to ramp up who's to say it wont be just a ridiculous amount of energy ? Maybe not even measure the CO2, but I would love to graph the increase of energy spent over time.


Per capita that is what, 500kg?

So on that day you are 10x'ing the US person day


if you take the long view, flying is irrational too


If you have some time, feel free to open a pull request — even just with a description or clarification of what's going on! It all sounds super interesting, but I’m still trying to fully grasp the business logic behind it Once I get the idea, I’ll be happy to jump in and implement it.

Repo is here if you're curious: https://github.com/Maciek-roboblog/Claude-Code-Usage-Monitor...


Claude, "Find the hacker news discussion about github repo github.com/maciek-roboblog and implement the suggestion by bilekas. Patch format."

It produced a patch. Unfortunately it was for removing the emojis from the readme.
