It looks like this developer has 2 Hacker News reader apps in the app store: Hacki and Z Combinator. Which is the good one?

If you don’t modify any of the source for the applications in those containers, then you have no changes to release. IANAL, but my understanding is that the GPL applies to a body of source code and not other things running alongside that so

I dunno, I’ve never seen any of these sort of “things will get better by getting worse” theories pan out. I’d wager that if it becomes difficult to tell real from fake on the internet, people may just become more atomized and paranoid, retr

Reality check for anyone considering this: I just got a used 3090 for $900 last month. It works great. I would not recommend buying one for $600, it probably either won’t arrive or will be broken. Someone will reply saying they got one for
