It used to be like this, in the 90s and 00s. Mainly it was a result of lower class guys getting rich after the events of 1991. It’s not like this anymore, at least not that common. Stop spreading lies, please. Saying that it’s a “culture-wi

On the other side there are people who don’t have a twitter account and who ignore the twitter links because it’s very difficult to read.

Well, I sold almost everything I had before the move. It was an interesting experience. I had 4 bags that I could afford to bring along, and at least twice more of the amount of things that I wanted to keep.

I did all of this in 2020 after the layoffs in the company I used to work for. It’s not the end of the world, it’s doable. In my case, I couldn’t leave the country where I lived, I didn’t have the residency there and it wasn’t possible to

Is SF the only city in the US? What stops them from moving to another part of the country? I moved across the globe, twice for the last 12 months, with my family. It’s definitely doable.

Singapore for instance. Many European cities are very safe too.

Idk, in my case I just stopped using web at all, with some exceptions like hn and some messengers. I’ve passed the point where I missed “the old web”, I don’t really care anymore. I’m back to reading books, that’s what I had been doing befo

Emacs, for instance, has this amazing kill-ring feature for decades - around 40 years. It is not a modern concept. I wouldn’t be surprised if Apple had this too someday, but removed for better ux.

It is a weak argument imo. If you’re important to them they will follow. If not, there’s no point to keep in touch. I understand that there’s edge cases when it’s really difficult to switch or use an alternative platform (i.e. because of ag

I’m not sure what you mean by this example. From what I see, somebody submitted a bug fix that hadn’t been approved/merged by you for 6 months. Then some quite rude conversation happened “Don’t act as my free time is owned by you”. I m

You’re quite active and emotional in this thread, but you failed to do basic math, or just didn’t read the article. It’s not 200/y, it’s 210 in 10 years. That tells something you need to know as well, those little details.

Not op, but here’s my concerns and suggestions: 1. It’s a search engine, not a news aggregator with curated content. If there’s a lot of “disinformation” results on the top so be it, it’s the state of the current information space. Ones goa

I wonder how many “less tech savvy” users use ddg, because in my experience people who actually care about their security are quite tech savvy as a rule - not necessarily in IT though. While the others use a default search engine/brows
