Do you realize how tautological your argument is? The tech is interesting, but the full impact of the invention isn't yet discovered. Focussing on the scamminess of the loudest players in the current tech environment is unfair to the t

The small web is bigger than ever, although the corporate web is even bigger. The pie just got a lot larger. Just as an example: I'm currently researching gravel bikes, because I want to buy one. I encounter: - Magazines with test revi

Interesting observation: I'm place 3501, I have been reading HN since 2009 and I only recognize 2 handles in the top 10. I guess this is because HN de-emphasises usernames.

I almost expected that some other part of the program used create_directory to actually execute shell commands on purpose, because someone figured this out. Fortunately, that was not the case :)

Default German keyboard layout is QWERTZ (Z and Y swapped). Too many web indie games use Z and/or X for some kind of action, which sucks for us Germans, because those aren't next to each other.

2022? Probably focus on the big things of 2021. Not much will change within a year. 2032? Hard to say, but it is quite possible that software and the web will actually look quite similar to what we have now. I found the concepts in this pr

Or maybe you suffer from survivorship bias. I mean, anecdotes are nice and all, but totally useless in determining whether unlimited screen time has negative effects or not. And my educated guess is: it depends.

Cool, but what if your son stops watching interesting YT videos and starts playing Fortnite 10 hours a day? And: How old is your son and at what age did you start the unlimited screen time policy? Because as you say, there is more nuance to

If the price goes up, you can spend more resources to mine a block. But the cost will approach the reward.

Note the upper case HTML. Not sure when we stopped doing them, but they were everywhere. Also: clan websites with tiny (pixel) fonts. This was early 2000s and we did font-size 8 or 9 px, because it looked cool. Of course, the horror were dr

Not OP, but same setup. I have a custom domain that has a generic name. Not entirely random just in case I ever have to spell it out or something, but no PII in the domain name. Also, Whois privacy service through my registrar.

Spot on. If this was about moral duty of being honest, we would see a lot more real sex, nude bodies, urine and feces on screen. They are more real and honest for 99.9 % of people than excessive violence.
