It's my fault for pinning non-specific dependencies (I had >=7.0.0,<8.0.0 pinned) but this took down search in production for us today. Lots of fun!

What's the point of something like this, which is a very poor imitation of Mario, being labeled as "Mario in Vim"? Just marketability? If you used non-IP infringing assets, maybe no one would pay any attention to a link like

At this point I wouldn't recommend anyone expose their face or true identity to the internet. There was a time idealistic people thought that removing anonymity from the internet would somehow make it more civilized, but bad actors (e.

To be fair what is being ordered is a 48 hour work week. They’re not allowed to work more than 8 hours a day, six days a week, and it’s (I believe) legally time-limited. It’s a stretch to say they should be “pilloried” for this, since their

I find in situations like these that it's pretty unlikely that the person telling the story really has no idea why something bad happened to them.

I think the rub is that a lot of the apps built at these massive companies use unnecessary third party frameworks and build their apps in janky ways, so while the content of their app doesn't appear to need anything special, it's

Most people/developers don’t care about these “issues”. Jessie Squires, while I am a fan of his, tends to be very outspoken on a variety of topics. It’s not out of character for him to write a profanity-laced tirade on the internet abo

We could all save a lot of time and trouble if we’d just normalize all cultures to a YYYY-MM-DD format. Sorts better as well as just being less ambiguous due to unfamiliarity meaning no assumptions will be applied by anybody. I only date th

It’s great to see how easy it is for bad actors to undermine the institutions Americans depend on. And by great, I mean absolutely awful. I hope that going forward governments are better about drafting legislation that doesn’t allow one per

Have the interviewee submit repos in which they're the only contributor? But, uh, with a take home project, you _really_ don't know that they wrote the code, either...

Outrage drives clicks... link has been up for 5 hours and is on the front page of HN, while other links with (probably) more worthwhile content stagnate and die. It's just how the internet works.

People forget to address power dynamics. New hires at a company are often grateful to have a job and nervous to make a good first impression. If you immediately ask for feedback from these people they are going to do everything they can to

Hi all! I made this app in the past week to make it easier for me to view my Pi-hole network stats and toggle them on and off. It's got a lot of features I see Pi-hole users asking for on the internet, so I hope it satisfies everyone!

In can go both ways, that's right, which is why we tend to trust the larger collection of people who have also done more to verify and support their claims. Two doctors in a YouTube video with anecdotal evidence that contradicts what t

I'm not really a fan of the idea that any person (or company) can be compelled to give a platform to someone (or something) they don't want to. Freedom of speech doesn't guarantee you a soapbox, and it certainly doesn't

Just because someone is a “doctor” doesn’t mean they are a reputable, trustworthy source of information. For example, there are doctors who promote the idea that hydrogen peroxide can cure cancer, and that tens of thousands of dollars worth

The 2% number is 2% of people who have bad symptoms die. 0.37% is 0.37% of all people who get it, including those who have mild/no symptoms die. It simply means a much larger percentage of people get it, not that any less people are dy
