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.

I just saw this today and was shocked; I have disabled notifications for many apps because they sent an errant ad in-between more necessary messages.
I personally would love it if Apple would allow for some kind of filtering of 'offers' vs substantive notifications across iOS, but this gives me less hope of that ever happening.
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.
Or just straight to CO2. Google said 1000 tokens emits 8.3g CO2.
How many tokens used in a heavy vibe coding day?
Average US daily per capita is like 40kg CO2
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 was hoping this was an app that forced you to learn languages before opening instagram. Doesn’t seem to be the case at all, in which case I’m not sure why this is titled “Duolingo for screen time”.
Instead this looks like a clone of any of the many screentime apps, with similar egregious pricing.

How do you mark and share locations with a shortcut? Setting up shortcut for one location is one thing, managing a bunch of locations is another thing.
Realistically how many locations do you have? On the upper end maybe 5? 6?
Shouldn’t take more than 3 minutes to set them all up.
I don’t think gamers are as price sensitive as believed.
How many people purchased computers that cost in the same realm as a mortgage payment? I personally know a several people who paid >$1500 for a GPU during COVID.
The price hike sucks but I doubt it will convince people to transition to a different hobby.
KMnO4 commented on Show HN: Rad Type - Can we make gamepad typing fast? tyleo.com/projects/rad-ty... · Posted by u/tyleo
When the iPhone first launched, it had to pull a lot of weight to convince people that a touchscreen keyboard could work as well as physical keys. One of the tricks it used was to predict the next letter and invisibly adjust the hitbox of each key.
If you type “h” and then hit the space between “w” and “e”, it will assume you wanted “e” and register that.
This could easily be implemented by dynamically adjusting the ranges where a letter can be selected from the joystick. You don’t even need to render it differently; just adjust which letter registers at a particular angle.
KMnO4 commented on Nvidia didn't just raise prices – they deleted an entire GPU tier old.reddit.com/r/pcmaster... · Posted by u/LorenDB
Nvidia also created a GPU tier to manipulate prices years ago.
Most people remember the 3090 being a flagship card that was overkill for most people. So why did so many gamers spend $2000 on it? Because Nvidia told them to.
Prior to the 3000 series, the card existed in the form of a Titan. If you wanted the best gaming card, you’d get a 2080. If you wanted a card for scientific computing, rendering, etc, then you could splurge for the Titan. Two different audiences. No one was buying a Titan for gaming.
Nvidia realized if they throw some RGB on the Titan line (so to speak), gamers will happily pay the premium for it, making them more money AND anchoring a much higher price bracket for video cards in the future.

> I could have my own TRMNL for under $80, or, if you factor in my time, around $5,000, which is a bargain
I love the self awareness.
I'm trying to be better about factoring in my time, largely unsuccessfully.
E.g. I just spent $200 of my time trying to trade in an iphone at the apple store (the Apple Store sucks now and has terrible processes). Value of trade in: $200
How did you come to the $200 figure?
Your time does have value, but it’s in terms of opportunity cost, not hourly wage. Presumably you wouldn’t have made $200 had you not gone to the Apple Store (unless you went when you were supposed to be working and have a job where that time becomes unpaid).
