I really liked having a Mac Mini. I might pick one up in the future considering how competent Apple’s GPUs have a potential of getting. Big hopes for M3.

Is there a book review site that actually has credible reviews of comedy books? I realized recently that it’s night impossible to find a useful comedy category.

I think being a Lead Engineer / Hands-on Engineering Manager is a natural progression path. It’s a bit like being a project manager and an engineer, so I think you’re being a bit harsh here. There’s plenty of paths forward. You can the

Instagram comments are not very good and rarely create a discussion, if that's what they're extrapolating it's going to the Meta-Graveyard pretty quickly.

Four pop-up modals that block content on MIT Technology Review. Shameful.

I would venture further and say there are no shortcuts if you want to be successful and doing permanent and irreversible damage to yourself is not going to get you there. Success is rooted in persistence and consistency, not seeing hallucin

I’m going to dissent from the rest of the commentators and propose that a priest, a friend, a parent, somatic therapy, cognitive behavior therapy, etc, is likely still a healthier approach than papering over social ignorance or pathologies

National Security being anything that can be deemed dangerous to the Executive Branch. A very broad stroke these days, that's even used to paint opposing politicians by both parties.

You would be surprised: a child that was difficult to provide for and had no future of providing for you in your old age wasn't that hard to discard even 100 years ago.

Using QUERTY after colemak is like being retarded, so after trying alternate keyboard layouts for a while, I'm just doing a hardpass on anything not QUERTY until we get rid of keyboards entirely.

I can't imagine ever moving to San Francisco or NYC for even twice the pay to be honest. Having to endure the NYC subway for another miserable summer is a big fat no from me (especially with how bad they've gotten in recent years)

Yeah, it's probably another soft layoff with VIP employees getting exemptions to having to come in.

After subscribing to absolutely everything and wondering where your paycheck is going every pay period, you sort of learn to just stop subscribing to anything at all. It's not cheap, you just learn the hard way you'll just make yo

I grew up in NYC with the most amazing public transport system out there in the world and still absolutely despised taking the bus. Try 100 degree 100 humidity summers while waiting for the bus or the inverse. It's really not compellin

Our teens aren't this determined t use a banned platform, don't bet on them suddenly buying VPN services just to use TikTok. It's like saying "oh look Elon bought Twitter and suddenly the select few of our special users

Considering less than 30% of startups are successfully by any measure, HN should be way more optimistic. I wonder where that sentiment is coming from.

Lock files in scripts are actually pretty unreliable, learned this the really hard way and the lesson cost $10's of thousands of dollars.

I definitely don't understand why post-use regulation and cleanup fees aren't baked into the cost of doing business for these companies. We need to stop being reactionary in our capitalism and be proactive.

If aliens had an Earth Embassy, this is what it's website would look like. I mean, it looks great, but it's just so different.

Maybe the earth just burps occasionally and it's not really a gradual buildup of pressure and this would do nothing.

They even get the smell you might be shopping around and you are toast. This article is shit advice. I had Google recruit me for L6/7 and I was exuberant about it on LinkedIn, really really really bad idea to even mention it.

Keep working through the process. Talent is wasted without knowledge. HN doesn't hate religion, it's simply ignorant of it.
