"Apple TV 4K is more than just a way to watch — it’s a home essential that transforms the living room to reflect what users want in the moment"

This is clearly an AI bot. Watch it automatically respond to my comment.

I believe Hotwire for Ruby on Rails uses a lot of HTMX under the hood.

This is something I am very curious to learn from others since I am, relatively speaking, quite new to HN.

HN posts seem to go from very supportive to very critical of AI with very few articles striking a balance.

Was there a time or technology phase in the past (I'm thinking perhaps when everyone was going over to GraphQL just because of the hype) that you recall being similar to this? If so, how did you maintain curiosity without feeling yourself go through the extremes of "This is the worst / best thing to ever happen"?

I really like the Ruby on Rails ecosystem and have deeply considered working at Shopify.

This has to be one of the hardest parts of working there. A bug takes down other peoples businesses.

Applying here was an odd experience. No acknowledgment or reply even after multiple follow ups. This was from applying back in 2025.

Perhaps even something like the Opus 4.7 token cost would become correlated with the market fluctuations...

I wonder how much Robinhood will profit from this change.

Obviously how much the average user will profit / compile debt from this change is a lot more variable.

How did you get 300+ karma in only 19 days?

Looking at your comments, it looks like a bot has been reading articles and leaving easy questions to build karma.

What on earth is this page, project, and thread?

Glad - I - wasn’t the only one that saw - AI article - giveaways…

GitHub stars have been proven to be easily purchasable.

Happy to hear the progress and that should be celebrated without the focus on stars.
