This is mentioned every time the Reddit UI is brought up, but genuinely, when they eventually kill old.reddit.com I'll never use Reddit again.

What is your motivation for growing in this way? More money? More status? More interesting projects? I would personally be very reluctant to start hiring employees if I was already successful on my own. You say that one upside is “share res

Some of the suggestions in this thread are completely nuts. If you are building a traditional marketing website for a client, you're doing your client a disservice if you don't use a CMS or hosted platform like Wordpress, Squaresp

I just got started with the API recently and was surprised that this was the payment model. Currently I’m just experimenting with the API but there’s no way I’d rely on a manual top up system for a production app. It’s like using a coin-fed

I moved to Apple Music because of the terrible state of the Spotify UI. I hated having podcasts and more recently audio books taking up real estate and generally just started to find it too difficult to navigate. Apple Music isn’t perfect,

How do you clone via CCC? I’ve an identical setup with TM and Backblaze but haven’t setup a sync to my Synology yet. As I use iCloud, I’d like an additional sync to the NAS. Do you just run a periodic task to sync to the SMB folder?

I’m using a Keycron mechanical keyboard for about two years now and haven’t noticed any serious issues. Only complaint is that the model I have doesn’t warn you when the battery is low and just cuts out. Other than that, typing experience i

Because it’s been around longer. Beautiful Soup was first released in 2004 according to its wiki page and I’m sure there were plenty of libraries before it.

I don’t think the entire article is dishonest. I do think the headline is sensationalist though (as you described). The majority of the article discusses the home screen issue specifically. Regardless, as someone who builds PWAs in Europe s

Not the OP but agree with their comment. For me, since Next 13 it's been a mess. The transition to the app router has been incredibly complex with lots of undocumented edge cases and other issues. Rendering in general has become very c

This seems like a rant. I've never thought that Fastmail's search is terrible. In fact I've found it really fast and accurate when I use it. It's true that, now that you mention those potential improvements, it would be

This comes up absolutely every time Youtube ads are mentioned. For most people, the issue isn't ads/no ads. The issue is that Youtube without an ad-blocker is unusable. There are regularly 6+ short ads in the first 4-5 minutes of

A fun experiment I’m sure but it’s not a very convincing argument for writing your own generator. In the same way the author claims frameworks will change, so will the tools that power their custom solution and using a framework will take a

I don't understand how this helps ownership of content? What situation is this trying to avoid? You already "own" your URL if you own your domain? EDIT: understand you are not the OP btw, just wondering out loud.

The ads on YT have made videos unwatchable. I regularly get 5+ ads in the first 5 minutes of longer videos. Instead of considering paying, I’ve just stopped using YT, except for the occasional video here and there.

This is such an on-brand HN response. “You don’t need Loom, just do these [10 inconvenient steps] and it’s the same”. How do you share and upload those videos? Where are they hosted? Can you set a CTA on the video? Get transcripts? Find who

Just for the record, I don’t mind that there’s ads and I agree that they need to collect money somehow. I pay for lots of services and understand that platforms (and creators) need to make money. The issue I have is that it seems that YT ha
