My opinion on this is that it's purposefully slower to browse through titles so you can't ever create a full mental map of all available titles. That way it feels like you could still find something new if you just tried harder.

I don't find any wix templates that would be anywhere near as good as what he has now. And trying to customize the wix/shopify template stuff to work exactly how he wants it is not trivial either. It's really mostly his front

The actual point is that this is a classic social battle: One person is offended having to adjust to X and the other person is offended if they don't adjust. So how do we solve this, who is objectively right? Either you put maximum val

If the team was truly so tight knit then you wouldn't need to write an email to convey that you are leaving. I'm personally always flabbergasted by people who write company wide farewell messages. It's a net negative for the

The fact that they don't have a simple price cap setting proves to me that they have no intention of being on my side. Promises of businesses that they won't increase prices are .. well, it just means almost nothing to me. It&#x27

It might be cheap now but there is absolutely no guarantee that one day they'll send out a fairly nondescriptive AGB update email and increase the prices without you knowing. Then because all these ever so helpful cloud services don&#x

I consider a population that rejects benefits for itself to be immensely confidence inspiring. To have the general population consider overall system productivity and stability and not just blindly vote for your own profit is pretty amazing

You are effectively absolving the parents of responsibility even at ages as low as 3-4(!). I'll say this: I think it's very fashionable to put no guilt on anyone ever even when it's objectively clear who's guilty. Same g

I really wonder how an HTTP application doesn't suffer from performance hits when it's based on 2000 micro services. Lets say even just 30 of those get used by a call to monzo.com. How does this not cause at least let's say ~

I don't think it's weird, if the business is deteriorating then getting laid off is just a financial decision. The personal choice of being the target should be up for self reflection anyway (and will be, I suspect). Maybe it help

"hate speech" is whatever the current political climate deems to be unacceptable speech. Today it's hateful to be against homosexuality, tomorrow it's hateful to be against any other approved policy from your favorite po

So you essentially want me to write error handling code nonstop, constantly, all across my functions. Practically after every 5 lines of code there is going to be an unwrap() where I'm not allowed to call unwrap() so I have to know the

Ha, I've had two companies ask me for a 1h and even 2h(!) timeslot do discuss my feedback in depth. In return they'll give me a 20$ gift certificate. I actually worked for a competitor of them for a while, my feedback would have b

it really doesn't require such extreme examples. The EU will also ask for all kinds of censorship. Germany just made wearing the 'Z' illegal, meaning that any kind of pro-russian viewpoint will have to be censored. There is o

Why on earth would you try to help DDOS'ers? I think you should really take a step back here and reevaluate what drives you here and what impact you have on other people.

Can I ask you how large tables can generally get before querying becomes slower? I just can't intuitively wrap my head around how tables can grow from 10gb to 100gb and why this wouldnt worsen query performance by x10. Surely you do ta

What we'd really need is a well supported nix-like OS, not some unspecific "containers" on top of a base OS. I can already install containers on top of a base OS, this couldn't sound any less interesting in my opinion.

But the async/await/Promises only make the code look synchronous because it actually makes the code synchronous. The await literally blocks the current thread, it's nice that the code is executed in a thread scheduler but I&#

These weird semi-ideological ideas like "don't use margins!" "don't use mocks!" that keep popping up sometimes are leaving me unfazed nowadays. I used to consider them all strongly and weigh the pros and cons b

Surely TV and radio also have algorithms behind them determining how to increase viewership. Facebook and Instagram do the same but in realtime with more knobs to turn. I personally don't quite understand how somebody can get addicted

These findings are pretty irrelevant, obviously for all we know the first two jabs could also have 75% protection within the first few days and then can quickly wear off. 2-3 months is not a long time and suddenly you're down to 22.5%.

I think the way you connected Unherd with Nigel Farage is a pinpointed, ill-intentioned way of disparaging a site and I think if you want to be honest, you know that's why you did it. It is pretty normal not to broadcast your source of

my personal solution is to block all images on youtube. I am perfectly happy browsing for information on text-only hackernews so I decided that it should be enough for video search too.

Calling pattern recognition racist is a bad move because due to being necessary for survival it will never go away. You should probably focus on what is factual instead of what you dont want to be true and then calling it racist.
