Even a CLI interface would be better than the sorry excuse of Asda's website. I wonder if entrusting an LLM is worth the trade off with the tedium of online shopping.
Off the top of my head: parallel subagents, hooks, skills, and a much better plan mode. These features enable way better steering than we had last year. Subagents are a huge boon to productivity.
I don't have the link, but I also remember reading this story. I tried googling but didn't have any luck either. I just wanted to let you know that you're not misremembering!
IMO the HN search isn't even worth using -- it's way too strict. Google's a lot better at finding relevance without the exact keywords.
And also, HN's title policy is unfortunate :( I wish we had the editorial freedom to give articles better, more meaningful titles... but the guidelines actively discourage that.
For a while I've wanted to build a big red "Ship it!" button (think emergency stop button). When slammed, it runs `git add -u . && git commit -m "Shipped!" && git push`
Summary: Most valuable when bridging the gap between data science and software engineering. Expertise in broad spectrum of industries, and a passion for jumping into brand new problems. Have considerable expertise in genomics (CRISPR/TALEN gene editing on-target and off-target search) as well GIS development. Absolutely love solving problems that combine complexities of the real world with computer science.

Someone with more in depth knowledge can tell me why this isn't a good idea, but I'm pretty sure you can get something very close to this with graphql subscription query against hasura backed with postgres
One factor of this battle against trickle down economics is language. 'Trickle down economics' is term that is intuitive, explains itself well, and is easy to remember. It's a meme in Dawkin's original definition of the word.
The alternative term, 'bubble up economics', needs to the popularised more.
That but also value added economics would be a good idea to introduce, since not all companies, especially in the financial sector produce value to society. Like breaking apart successful companies for example.
I think it's hopeless. The HN crowd is relatively educated, but they just gormlessly use a slur in reference to a thing. Should I have confidence that they understand the thing itself, if they can't avoid attacking it with every mention?
What's curious is--when these policies came about under Reagan, the economy basically exploded upwards for 40 years. What the hell do you want? LBJ's Great Society back again? That's where we're headed right now. Inflation and destitution!
Can I ask how did you safely organise a tour like that without getting scammed/putting yourself in danger? How did you get in contact with your driver?
I googled “rental car Islamabad” and found a rents agency. I called them and worked out a deal to pay cash upfront with any special security deposit or insurance. They put me in touch with the driver. Basically I just went for it.
There are many travel startups now which specialize in organizing these trips to north for foreigners. I can’t think of a name but should be easily google-able.
If you want to go cheaper, search for rent-a-car services in Islamabad.
You probably wouldn’t be scammed or put in danger either way.
It can search for items, add them to the basket, picks a delivery slot and does the checkout.
With a little more scaffolding in markdown files, this now takes care of my weekly shopping.
