That chat history dark pattern is the main reason I never use Gemini. Its a shame.

Which dark pattern is that?

Is it me or the mentions of Kagi on HN are overly positive?


Not sure about the compiler but prominent users of llm agents (Mitchel Hashimoto, Armin Ronacher etc) has mentioned that Go gives better results for agentic coding.


This type of corporate behaviour should be highlighted as unacceptable. I’ll personally steer away from anything cisco from now on.


Not free in my country, didn’t know YouTube was broadcasting full movies in certain regions as you imply.


Are you able to watch this one?

I want to use Zed but last time I tried it was spawning node processes, i guess for lsp. (I develop in Go)


I don’t do laravel but which bad practices are you referring to?


The prime example I'll always reach for is the fact that it makes use of PHP classes to represent database entities, but not really - the """classes""" don't actually declare any of their properties, it's all dynamically injected at runtime from the database columns. You need a Laravel-specific IDE plugin just to get basic code completion and static analysis.

And yeah, there's also facades.


50/50 chance it's a complaint about Facades, heh.


In addition to what /u/bakugo already said, they also have custom global magic functions all over the place.

The code discipline and patterns they encourage are so bad that they had to wrap PhpUnit into their own version of the unit test framework named Pest, because PhpUnit intentionally discourages those patterns natively.


Pest is just phpUnit syntax sugar. Claude will happily switch between the two syntaxes in seconds.


So will I, albeit less happily, but that's not really saying anything.


I’ve disabled all activity notifications. It actually helps me avoid the phone on other type of notifications.


They are much much lighter due to lack of batteries which makes them quite ergonomic.


Self plug: I use matcha[0] which produces markdowns which with icloud (or any other file sync service) automatically sync cross devices.
