Yes, I believe so, or at least a subset of it. The author is not a therapist of any kind, I get the impression he was just a guy who wrote a book about how he overcame his personal struggles. This was off-handedly recommended to me by my th

I recently read a book called "Don't Believe Everything You Think" by Joseph Nguyen which tackles this problem directly through a bit of mindfulness and eastern philosophy. In the book, he starts by distinguishing between &qu

On the other hand, it seems like commenters on HN love unifying around deriding a paradigm that hasn't been proven to be hated by the vast majority of iOS users (most of which of course are not here and certainly will not care).

Cheap take: no matter where you fall on the entire political spectrum, this implosion is incredibly entertaining, even if predicted for a long time now. Musk has managed to unite bitter political divisions against him. It's impressive

I think it's for this and other reasons that this kind of tool is not great for beginners. I can personally vet all of those LoC to make sure they are organized in a way that makes sense as it grows (limited to my own skill, lets assum

I have been using agentic AI to help me get started writing an OpenGL-targeted game from scratch (no engine). I have almost no background experience with computer graphics code, but I understand most of the fundamentals pretty well and I ha

I don't think there's a lot of groupthink or virtue signaling here, and those are the things that irritate me the most. If people here overestimate their knowledge or abilities, that's okay because I don't treat things p

It happens in degrees, and the degree here is much lower.

This is entirely why I can't bring myself to use it. The groupthink and virtue signaling is intense , when it's not just extremely low effort crud that rises to the top. And yes, before anyone says, I know, "curate." No

I have written a couple internal parts databases and this was my starting point as far as design/UI/UX.

I didn't have any issues with it. I ran the same server straightaway on a new domain maybe 7 years or so, maybe more. I recently changed hosts from AWS to somewhere else, so the IP changed, etc, and I did have one major e-mail provider

Chroot has saved my system more times than I care to admit. I didn't really understand how it worked though, interesting.

I agree that this is a huge improvement, but it's also over a decade late IMO. This should've been accomplished well before now, especially given that the issue has been there since the beginning.

If you can afford it, Miele is definitely the way to go. The premium is quite high but IME you're buying the product, not just the brand.

Totally get it. And there has been work for me where I would've offloaded the details like that for sure . It might be that it's when I really feel like the project is my baby and I'm really enjoying that part of the process

Honestly, I don't know why nobody says it, but I just _don't want to._ I don't want to use it too much. It's not that I'm paranoid about it outputting bad code, but I just like doing almost all of it myself. It help

I am a U.S. citizen and I wouldn't recommend risking a chance at the border, personally. Although gun violence or other random violence more generically is not something I am worried about, even living in a somewhat impoverished urban

Interesting. I shattered mine similarly while snowboarding, but back in maybe 2018. There was definitely no debate on the matter, surgery via ORIF was the recommended option. Then again, my doc was a sports medicine surgeon so perhaps that

Swamped is on point. I watched my roommate-now-girlfriend get over 1,000 likes in no time at all (I can't remember well but certainly on the order of hours, not days). It was in a populated, well-off area, but still. When you see somet

Probably. I didn't know that about it when I used that word, but a sibling comment also confirms this, so thanks for the correction.

I agree. I'm not sure if I think all of this is good or not. Even if you, a gov't, didn't have an interest in managing your citizens vis-a-vis some platform, it doesn't mean other govt's don't have that interes

FWIW, this has driven many users to RedNote, which is even more Chinese in every way, regardless of whether it's even the same kind of platform. I doubt it would ever be anywhere near the same numbers as TikTok (assuming ByteDance didn

I don't follow that logic and that is the kind of absolutism many of us disagree with. It seems like an appeal to emotion to me. I'm not sure you can characterize the EP as shallow; aggressive yes, if one considers bold to be syno

I don't find that to be true and I find your own rationale to be its own sort of performative moralism. Many normal people feel this way and it isn't to appease MAGA or Trump or whatever, including myself and many people I know wh

Agreed. I started playing Satisfactory a few years ago, before I ever picked up Factorio. And I played A LOT of Satisfactory. Into the thousands of hours. I'm currently at a couple hundred hours into Factorio and I can safely say I lik

I've never had that happen; it's hard to compare without knowing the changes between generations or years. That said, the only real issue I've had is that the TACC is slow to start accelerating again when the car in front tur

I've got a 2019 Subie Outback and the AEB is pretty good. It really only engages in very tight circumstances above a certain speed (and probably only lower than a certain speed) i.e. I'm pretty sure it will let me rear-end somethi
