The uncertainty is part of the problem. Funny that even authors are not sure :) I can't tell on https://www.amazon.com/Immortal-Remains-Lee-Hauser-ebook/dp/... that it's DRM-free. Amazon loses money in t

I wonder if the author has ever played Diplomacy. You have to fight the perennial sense that you have nothing and can be replaced. All your opponents have to do is band together against you. A similar generalization to OP would say everyone

Oh I love that. I program on my phone as well using LÖVE, though games aren't really my interest. My devlog at https://akkartik.itch.io/carousel/devlog is about recreating the feeling of typing in programs from ma

HN has always had sucky bits, just like human nature. Everyone who thinks it's going downhill is just one of today's 10,000 [1] to discover some sucky corner of human nature. I'd say the world has gone downhill much faster an

Edit: thanks for toning it down. I will as well. From the comment up above: > I would imagine the Mac Neo is a sealed unit that you use as-is until it's e-waste. So the "bar" is irrelevant to this conversation.

You're preaching to the choir, brother. But reread the comment I replied to. "Use as-is until e-waste" the Neo is not.

It's actually not bad. The rhetoric has had an effect over the years. https://www.ifixit.com/News/116152/macbook-neo-is-the-most-r...

Adtech isn't about showing ads. It's about targeting ads. And yes, if Gemini gets wildly popular maybe they'll think of something. Good problem to have! New mistakes instead of same old ones!

Why is it that every criticism of gemini/gopher throws the baby out with the bathwater? When you browse to a pristine html page containing zero adtech it contains links. Those links you might click on without first thoroughly vetting t
