       | Now, for the analysis of the Who's Hiring posts.

       | You might consider an alternative to screenshots for tables.
       | There are a few problems with this strategy. Most significantly,
       | it's inaccessible to the visually impaired - they're hearing your
       | description of the data without getting to read the data itself,
       | which must be frustrating. Problems like this can feel
       | hypothetical and abstract, but HN is a large enough audience that
       | there are probably real people having this experience.
       | 
       | It also can't be copy pasted, it can't be plotted, it doesn't
       | respect the settings of my browser like font size, etc. When I
       | see some of these breakdowns, my first thought is, "hmm, I'd like
       | to copy paste this into a spreadsheet and make a bar chart."
       | (Indeed, that's when I noticed it was a screenshot.)
       | 
       | You might consider copy pasting from DataGrip into your editor
       | and formatting it to be a markdown list or something. It probably
       | would take about the same amount of time as taking a screenshot
       | and putting it into your markdown.
       | 
       | Thanks again for sharing, this was an interesting breakdown.

       | Next iteration of this can include those.

       | You can open it in Datasette Lite (WebAssembly in your browser)
       | to run SQLite SQL against it like this:
       | 
       | https://lite.datasette.io/?csv=https://github.com/getomni-ai...

       | One issue I noticed with my project [1] is that the description
       | is for the wrong thing. This is probably partially my fault,
       | since I wrote about two projects in one comment [2]. The music
       | production app is closed source, but the UI library I maintain
       | for it is open source. Seems like that might have thrown off your
       | AI tool.
