People were in fact holding it wrong to get the signal to attenuate. The way you had to grip the phone to affect signal was not practical in any way. That controversy was entirely bullshit and only Apple would have ever been dragged for it.

The experience of using the butterfly keyboard was fantastic, I agree, but it was definitely polarizing. Some people hated it. At the end of the day, however, the reliability issues were unacceptable.

I've found you can do one of two things to some door this: 1. Turn around and face the other way. 2. Make a visor with your other hand on your forehead.

Which has been obvious since 2015. 11 years later and many of us still can't even convince our own family members that Trump and Trumpism are appreciably different than "the left".

It's wild to me that MVS didn't get picked up everywhere else for their next-gen package managers. Picking up "fixes" automatically turned out to be a boondoggle, if not a security risk. There's no reason we need to

Unused RAM is wasted RAM. If your machine isn't reporting memory pressure and/or the user isn't experiencing pageouts, then the machine is well-suited to the user's workload.

What are examples of logs that you're considering IOCs? The picture you are painting is basically that most everyone is already compromised most of the time, which is ... hard to swallow.

My favorite NS in a long time. I'm embarrassed by how long it took me to realize who "Elmo" is meant to reference ...

> Yes, we substantially disagree on a contentious policy question. Ours is not merely a policy disagreement, you failed to provide a reasonable case for violating the 2nd, 4th, 5th, and 15th amendments. Indeed, you only seem to respond t

I definitely have worries about far-left capture if/when a power vacuum occurs after the current fascist executive and semi-fascist legislative experience the whiplash of Americans finally pushing back. But you know what? I'll sta

Let's just stipulate everything you said is true. You do realize that the subordination of German corporations validates the quote you're ostensibly arguing against? Given your framing, German fascists would have loved the scale

We should be able to agree that no entity is authorized to violate the 2nd, 4th, 5th, and 14th amendments of the constitution. Whatever immigration laws you want to see enforced, they do not supersede the constitution.

This assumes the consumer doesn't know and can't look up the price of the hardware.

This is exactly the kind of thing government is for, even though it's missing the other half: subsidies. At the very least buying heat pumps for the next 5 years should be tax deductible. Even better: a $2000 or similar rebate.

While I don't agree with the "this shouldn't be on HN" part, people thinking Elon is a Nazi isn't exactly unreasonable. He literally sieg heil'd an audience at Trump's inauguration. Twice. Call it trolling

Because expertise, love, and care cut across all human endeavor, and noticing those things across domains can be a life affirming kind of shared experience.

Google's military and Apple's police force are surely up to the task.

It was determined by voters. Pretty sure that's over now too.

That is how software releases generally work. AFAICT this is not a bug with broad impact or security implications.

Single-asterisk for bold is not Markdown. I believe Slack calls their thing "markup". I also find it annoying. So annoying that I just learned Slack's keyboard shortcuts instead.

If any Bundler replacement isn't using Minimal Version Selection, I'm not interested.

Unfortunately the comment you're responding to is a joke. HTTP status code 418 is a joke response: "I'm a teapot".

Why must you insist it's LLM-generated based on formatting and feel? What if this is just how the author writes? This is what I mean by overzealous pattern matching.

Overzealous pattern matching is not criticism.

Blanket statements like this are unhelpfully tribal. Ruby has its uses, and underpins one of the most successful (and cloned) MVC frameworks of all time. But yeah, Python received the attention of data scientists early on and now it's

You're being sarcastic, but it's a valid point. I'd love to know if there were any traffic fatalities at all during the affected period. Chances are there were and that they were due to human error.
