Claude Is Painfulhttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48964237I cannot be the only person who feels this way. Claude is antogonistic and frankly an absolute nightmare to use. SLOW is an understatement... I get faster output from a 16GB mac mini using deepseek 8B model....and not much worse output...I ask Gemini something. I get a response in 10 seconds and its long and well detailed. I ask claude, it wastes my tokens talking to itself, makes insulting stupid and frankly rude shortcuts that have no basis in reason except for Anthropics profits...Its unuseable. It will just cough up a half complete reaponse, deciding to strip everything out of value...place nothing useful in, leave half finished files and then worst of all...it doesnt even putput them and leaves them in its own private memory...until you ask for them explocitly and it regenerates rhem again at full cost....its just pure fraud. No further notes. Thoughts?

How Google decided to Destroy its Search Monopolyhttps://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48945074This is a bit of a rant, yet it's one I think is rightly deserved.Over the last several months, Google has exploded with:* extreme delays in rendering search results* popups of captcha + prove you're human, for simple searches* extreme delays in doing anything after hitting enter on searchInstead of taking 100ms or less to return search results, it now takes 5+ seconds, 10+ seconds sometimes. Often with a captcha in between.This 100% isn't me. I've noticed these changes, discussed with others, and it's happening to people across a wide swath of industry, and situations. Co-workers at home. Elderly parents. People at workplaces. The list goes on.This is worst at night, and of course that's when I tend to work the most. It's so bad, that once I see that first captcha, I just switch to Bing. Yes, Bing. Kagi works, but from where I sit its results have been sliding and slipping, sadly. I don't know what they've been focusing on at Kagi recently, but it's not what it once was. Likely, relia

Ask HN: Best meeting transcription daemon for macOS?https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=48936123Granola are cracking down on their auth and I can no longer pull my meeting notes out and put them in Obsidian (my plugin is gonna have to be deprecated: https://github.com/tomelliot/obsidian-granola-sync/).That means I'm gonna need a different meeting transcription/summary pipeline. There's a cambrian explosion of meeting transcription tools (https://hn.algolia.com/?q=Show+HN%3A+transcription). It's awesome.I've tried some, but haven't found one that works how I want. Can you help me find one that suits my use case?- daemon runs in the background- uses local models for transcription, diarization/speaker identification- primary interface is CLI/no UI. It should just happen in the background.- GUI is secondary. Maybe a button in the menu bar for starting/stopping a meetingoptional/secondary- pulls in calendar info for titling and attendees- cleans the transcript- generates summary
