So the lesson is that one must become ultra-normie in music taste before one becomes a founder? I'm waiting for the PG essay to explain this.

There is freedom of speech if you are a MP speaking in Parliament (Parliamentary privilege) but outside of there, things have been on a steady decline since the 1980s.

It's so subtle you can't even tell! That's what you get when you commission with a blank cheque.

Looks very good. I'm glad to see more things happening in SwiftUI - proper desktop apps are not gone yet!

Same. Reminds me of following tutorials on oldos.org back in the day.

Didn’t need to read that! I’ve often thought I will truly feel my age when they start calling the Xbox 360 ‘retro’. Not far off if we’re not already there.

I live in a region of the UK where rhoticity is alive and well. It actually means I've an easier time understanding some words when Americans speak them, compared to the English. On the broader point I'd agree up until I notice th

The modern protocols? Likely not, but it was absolutely possible back then: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microsoft_NetMeeting NetMeeting even used an open ITU protocol that could voice call other clients! The 90s were

I can corroborate this. When I was using dating apps I kept a spreadsheet to track the response to like ratio, and indeed, the amount of women who liked me back in any given month was exactly 5% of those whom I liked. Much as I wish that ra

This is fantastic, actually. I love that this will let us create games in the late 90s FPS style but with all the niceties of modern hardware. Now if only I had any skill in 3d modelling...

I did my part. Five years ago, while I was driving one of the blighters landed on my windscreen. I pushed the wiper lever to rinse, expecting it to swipe him away. Instead it beat him down to my air intake vent, and he was sucked into the A

So you get a bit richer for less effort... but how do you think moderating legions of spam posts affects the lives of independent website owners, who just want to create communities around the things they love? Or indeed the users, who have
