It's a useful site but like I said, I was just interested in seeing the responses on HN.

I'm probably an outlier, but I just... haven't? I grew up extraordinarily poor and spent the first few years of my adult life working low-paying jobs while teaching myself to code until I've gotten to where I am now. I feel i

There's a lot of middle ground between blindly trusting all 'science' and blatantly disregarding everything that rubs you the wrong way. It's possible to both have a generally high amount of faith in 'the science&#x

As a rule I'm generally not a huge fan of taxation, but I'd be happy to see my tax dollars go towards a system like you propose here.

Can you name a country where an actually observably valid election takes place? And by this I mean an election where, somehow, an individual would be able to see their individual ballot make it from wherever they cast it, to the counter,

Yeah, fair enough. I didn't think about starting it off with my own. I should have, good point.

So even longer! I was under the impression, for whatever reason, that it happened in the 90's. Looks like 50 years would have been closer to the mark.

Women have been able to vote in Switzerland for, what, 30 years now? A bit behind a lot of other countries for sure, but let's not act like that has or should have any bearing on this subject of this post.

Yeah but I thought it would be interesting to get a more HN centric dataset

Sure.

Ask HN: How much do you make, what's your job title, and where do you live?

There are programmimg discord servers where I think most of the kind and helpful programmers find themselves today. At least, that's been my observation.

Thanks for being the only one to respond, I was hoping this thread would gain more traction but it unfortunately did not.

I feel this may also be in part from panic-fatigue (for lack of a better word). I'm 23 and it feels as if since the earliest memories of childhood I've seen commercials and initiatives about how the environment is in horrible shap

You don't have to know the solution to a problem to know when a proposed one isn't it.

I agree with the sentiment so this comment is more of a nitpick than anything constructive, but I do feel you may have missed the mark with the typescript example. Even if you don't want to use TS in it's full glory, you can jus

Well I don't think they were asking in an adversarial way like you might find on SO. Seems as if they just wanted some insight into my decision making process and why I chose to do x over y so they can better make the decision themselv

Why not both? Being able to better understand and appreciate Rust is one of a couple factors motivating me to learn C. The others being gaining historical context when analyzing modern c-based languages, being able to effectively read from

As a matter of fact, that's part of the reason I want to learn C. I started learning Rust, and see a lot of potential, but ultimately find I lack the context to: 1. Appreciate the language. 2. Really understand what's happening i

Well for self-teaching Python and JS/TS/html/CSS I mainly just followed YouTube videos with a healthy dose of side projects. For learning Elixir I bought "Elixir in Action" and then supplemented with my own side pro

I wonder how this utopia would hinder further technological and scientific advancement. There will still be the curious and the capable of course, but I can't help but think that their output and rate of advancement alone would be far

Yes it can, in very small amounts. You'd have to eat a ton of the synthesis precursors as a vegan to obtain anywhere near the optimal amount or to approach what a meat/fish-eater gets in their regular diet. The literature is abund
