Trailers do exist and there is no good reason to drive a commercial vehicle every day for simple trips. It is also less expensive to use a trailer.

Yes, I’m sure that guy made the comment so he could get advice from HN’s top minds about how he doesn’t actually know what his requirements are.

Clearly he made the comment to justify to strangers on the internet why he needs to buy a bigger truck. Truly the need to “adjust the angle of the handlebars awkwardly” is a great burden.

It is fine if one of your key requirements is to compensate for something ;)

Fellow motorbike trailer owner here.


This is a great solution. I have a small utility trailer I use to move my dirtbike (and lots of other stuff!) I tow it with a CR-V.

Since I don't need the hauling capacity every day, or even every week, it's great to leave the trailer at home and park in more places.


I'm interested in a trailer, but the space they take up while not being used (which is most of the time) is a big negative.

There are some pretty slick folding trailers out there. They save a little bit of space

Definitely getting that vibe. Also praising M*sk and USA leadership clearly points to only having his business interests in mind.

Feels like engagement bait for attention seeking. No doubt they'll still keep the Olympics contracts as they are.


1.1.1.1 DNS is just querying root DNS servers. And @elon.jet twitter account was just querying ADS data and posting it. Its exactly same, yet this guy praises Elon.

DNS lookups via 1.1.1.1 are also directly fed into the US surveillance state so peter thiel can use his palantir dashboard to see if you are the antichrist or not.

I'm sure he has a mirror lying around somewhere?

Is agreeing with an adversary on a single point the same as praising them?

Interesting choice of words to try and make the logic sound ok. Try:

'Is praising an adversary on a single issue the same as praising them'. Yes, yes it is


Perhaps a blessing in disguise. You're not missing out on anything of value.

The Claude models are among the most expensive. It's easy to spend 30 EUR+ a day when providing it with a lot of context, documentation. Ofc it can be argued that this money is worth it relative to salaries, but recently I've switched to kilocode myself after looking at different model pricings on openrouter https://openrouter.ai/models?order=pricing-high-to-low There's just no reason to throw money away.

There are plenty of free (and also cheap ones) models you can use with just openrouter or kilocode (inexpensive less-shitty Cursor basically, https://kilocode.ai).

With most things these free models are able to achieve great results and similarly to the expensive ones they need oversight and thorough code reviews. These days I'm barely paying anything for tokens monthly.


How do you type? I get the ydotool usage but do you have a shortcut for each key then on your phone?

For my iPhone I made a dumb script using the Shortcuts app. It's a horrendous app that combines all the worst parts of a scripting language with all the worst parts of a visual language. But I'm not sure how else to do it besides learning swift (I'm not confident I made the right decision btw. It is that bad)

So I just press a button from my quick select and then it'll send my text followed by a carriage return (depending on which option I use).

On Android I did something very similar using termux but it only took 2 minutes to write and is much easier to understand and use


Wayland with Sway feels toptier already. Tiling WM is just so simple, clean, fast, and perfect in every way.

Problem isn't the cars. Stop buying uselessly oversized SUVs, and trucks in case of muricans.

A Fiat 500/Panda is perfectly fine in cities.


Start charging taxes based on the number of square feet a car occupies and the problem will solve itself.


I’d like to see the calculation of the reduction you get in roadway throughput by making the vehicles larger.

If people stay further away from tractor trailers, they’ll stay further away from SUVs too.

Even in an urban environment, if you stop X feet of distance from the back of the vehicle in front, if that vehicle is longer…

Anyways, street parking should be paid by the square foot * 1.25 to account for getting in/out/around parked vehicles.


It does say "public repository of..." implying there's a non-public one with real history. Not sure why not upload the main one though.


If he's anything like me (doubtful but roll with it), the commit history when prototyping is probably something like "commit", "commit", "fixed a bug", etc.


Supabase is great if the goal is insecure, incredibly slow postgres. Selfhosting it is also painful with ~10 separate containers, while supabase's own offering has downtimes that won't appear on their status page.

Only thing it actually makes easier is auth. Other stuff just becomes harder to maintain. A simple springboot Java app, especially with basic boilerplate implemented with llm help, will last a long time, be cheap+simple to host, easily extensible.


Kilocode as an IDE plugin has completely removed Cursor from my toolkit.

Cursor has been both nice and awful. When it works, it has been good. However for a long time it would freeze on re-focus and recently an update broke my profile entirely on one machine so it wouldn't even launch anymore.

Kilocode with options of free models has been very nice so far.
