If YouTube provides a service that removes ads ONLY for $4.99/month, they would already have my money. However they have to bundle it with YouTube Music and other stuff into "Premium", then never mind.

I'll never work with someone like the author in a team. Just because of your personal opinions and certain things that don't matter in the end, you want to ruin everybody's development experience. The proposed solution is way

Good for you. Given the article links I see here, I think most HN users prefer the "old media" that abide by a set of ethic rules, have rigorous fact checking and have professional editing. I would rather see factually correct in

If much of your development is spent on implementing business logic in a language you are familiar with, and you have a decent IDE, I don't know what you use stackoverflow for at that frequency. Occasionally you may need to consult sta

Suppose you are just learning C++ language. There is a syntax error or type mismatch. The error message is 50 lines long and it does not make any sense to you. You already spent 10 minutes on it. What do you do now? If there is an experienc
