I love these guys for trying to do this. I just hope they’ve already made their money and can afford to continue doing this. It’s every engineer’s dream - to reinvent the entire stack, and fix society while they’re at it (a world without so

This needs some context. I can think of several cases where this wouldn’t be the be right.

I remember my dad using the Z80 Softcard to run WordStar, which was astonishingly powerful considering how long ago it was king of word processors. I’d be surprised if some of the control keys hadn’t influenced our editors, although as a Vi

Hmm, a clean, safe, prosperous country with world class education, top medical facilities, a technocratic highly competent government, reasonable taxes, and a place that people like to come for vacation…I can see how this would offend peopl

The damage done by scammers is enormous. Families losing their life’s savings. Quite often these scams are perpetrated on less sophisticated people so the economic damage to them is even more devastating. It’s not like the government woke u

One of the things I had to wrap my head around was the whole async server style of programming. I learned that doing a sleep on the server consumes essentially zero resources. The thread goes to sleep and wakes up when the timer expires. In

That might be an excellent reason not to use some of these capabilities. And maybe in a different situation it would make sense to use the mechanisms provided. Programmer’s responsibility to decide what’s appropriate in each case, that’s al

I think the ideas behind HTMX are cool, and Carson’s advocacy around Hypermedia is great. I came from SPA-land and was tired of the fundamental architectural issue of having to keep the front-end and back-end state in sync. I’ve compared Da

It’s cool that you can do this in C! And it’s cool that this article explores that. As developers we have to decide where and when this makes sense, just like with other language features, libraries, architectural patterns, etc.

For certain non-critical computers (like my Mac mini in the living room whose primary job is to run Spotify), you might want to look at Open Core - which will let you update to a modern macOS. It’s a great feeling to get years more life out

This is a simple business decision by Canva. They see the future of creative work is to lean heavily on AI. So all the basic editing functionality is now table stakes. Giving it away for free is a powerful play against Adobe.

Evernote sucked by that time. Their user-driven support forums were so obviously a ploy to string along users while nothing changed. As a dev it was glaringly obvious to me they were milking not investing. Moving to Apple Notes was the simp

I'm wondering which ad blocker you've had success with...specifically I'm wondering: - Does this also block ads on Youtube (in the browser)? - Can this block Youtube Shorts (they're way too addictive for me)?

Maybe on paper. But the snappy low-latency feel of TUI apps in the terminal is a joy, and unequaled in GUIs.

However mercurial, Jobs’ willingness to change his mind about things was a huge asset. So many execs I work with haven’t had an original thought in years, and certainly haven’t reevaluated their stance on anything.

I don’t know if this amount of abuse is reasonable. But I do know that if I had a phone that made a grating noise every time I opened it due to sand getting in the hinge I’d never buy one again.

I was worried this would be cringey, but the hosts and guests are really good. It’s definitely not technical, but more personality and news driven.

The breathless outrage is something that has no place on HN. As for the developer’s tone - I don’t know if there is a right way here. It’s an asymmetrical situation where making an unfounded allegation is effortless and does real harm, but

Datastar is run by some principled (and opinionated) guys who are immensely generous with their time and supportive to newcomers. What’s getting lost in the whole kerfufflw over the Pro version is that this is NOT a monetization strategy.
