I've barely used Reddit's web interface ever since the redesign, and don't get me started on the mobile browsing experience. The generic UI, the useless features have just really turned me off from ever using any official web

I've often found that "skipping the details" and learning only as much as I -need- truly is the most useful thing you can do to learn something new.

I totally agree, if you can find some sort of hack that can get you some sort of advantage, why not -- and at the moment that may be speculative, meme investing. But at the same time you need other sources of income to hedge your risk and g

Normally I'd be inclined to agree with you on this, your bottom-line software engineers shouldn't be outed and publicly shamed. In this case, however, the CTO, a person at the top of the org chart, must be cognizant of these sorts

Yup, Duanathar. It was especially fun when the Clouds were strategically used during raids and skirmishes, people found a lot of creative uses for it.

Woah, Sarapis! I've seen MUDs discussed here on HN before but never Achaea. I wouldn't be who I am today without having played that game. Thank you for so many years of fun.

I wonder if things will get to the point (or maybe we're already there) that it would be feasible enough to set up something akin to a SaaS/PaaS for botting operations. Similar to how DDoS crews rent time and botnet resources for

I feel like this phenomena really can only happen in 'first-world' countries like America -- in fact, maybe it's almost a uniquely American thing driven by our culture of optimism... combined with the need to look trendy, w

I don't think we're remotely at that point yet. Anyone who has paid attention to US news at all last year can see that we've still got some ways to go before the society of the last man is realized. That said, the conditions

I wonder where the old users will be migrating to. There were quite a few aspects of WSB I really enjoyed before 2020 / 2021 happened.

FOMO is one of the deadliest threats to sound decision-making. I bought some GME just as it dipped to $90, smacked myself back to reality and sold the same day -- thankfully with a small profit. I'm dipping my toes back in with two sha

Regrettably, I only read a total of three books in all of 2020, but for me it was the Autobiography of Malcolm X. I didn't know much about his life beyond basic knowledge of his work during the civil rights movement and the fact that

GraphQL, as far as I know, has been gaining immense popularity as of late. I've never used it in a professional capacity, but its great in that you can shape the types of API responses returned from a single endpoint -- very different

I had started (and then dropped rather quickly) the anime Bungo Stray Dogs, whose characters are named after classic Japanese authors. The main character of the show is named after Atsushi Nakajima.

I'm currently a masters student and I'm rather glad I opted not to take a specialized degree such as Machine Learning, taking on computer science instead. All this discussion about DS, ML, AI (and even CS) becoming over-saturated

I wouldn't be the person I was today without MUDs. They brought me to my first foray into coding and gave me a sense of community that I never really was able to find anywhere else during my high school years (2009 - 2013). The magic h

I'm currently starting up a study group for Martin Kleppmann's "Designing Data-Intensive Applications," which seems to be a popular book with a lot of practical knowledge that'd be great for discussions.

Well it was going to be my internship, but that's been pretty much cut. So I plan on doing some sort of ML / Data Mining project at some point. Actually gonna be working in a small group of other college students / grads whos

It's disappointing seeing such behavior from individuals from what I've always considered one of the most respectable institutions in the U.S. There'd be no surprise from me if this sort of thing came from any one of the othe
