Is it, really? With Windows you can just download an app. With MacOS you sometimes need to pick between Intel or Apple Silicon. For Linux you invariably have to navigate list of Deb or RPM, perhaps TarGz files, maybe a torrent or two. Stick

Whilst effort in this space is to be congratulated, a job board is only as good as the quality and quantity of the roles offered. What makes your site any better than the other numerous boards out there? Why would Acme Inc be drawn to posti

In other countries, maybe, but what we’re experiencing in the US seems very much based upon “lie” based media consumption. Right now we have political candidates who will cheerfully, and without pause, tell lies and use any form of image ma

There may be a bit of a gulf between what they claim, and what they can realistically and financially provide. I prefer to see long term real world results myself before I start to worry about any possible ramifications, myself.

Wasn’t CockroachDB open source, right up until it wasn’t? I think a better question is perhaps “what alternatives are there that are not owned by VC backed corporations?”

Everyone is different and what works for one person, will be an abject failure for another. Not sure why the OP feels the need to be so vehement in their opinion.

Do what I can & be cognizant as to the effect my slowness will have. And if doubt, be honest walk away and take some me time after letting the team know.

A $37.49/$49.99 subscription is one heck of a high price for an app that’s basically a one-trick pony that may get used a few times a year. I don’t mind paying for apps myself - even subscriptions - but this one’s a hard pass from me

Computers use RAM and Water is wet. Sorry, not seeing the issue here - RAM is designed to be used. Why would it flush it if there’s no pressure? If one gets high swap then that’s a problem, but until then it’s simply the OS preemptively cac

Unsure what the actual point of this is. There are plenty of themes for HN available if one doesn’t like the barebones nature of the base site. Since this does appear to be a total rebuild then does it not only support all the current featu
