ive used youtube daily for years and never once looked at or clicked the dislike button (or the like button). seems to work fine for me

same; this is the part I always end up trying to explain to people when talking up Dune. The monolith in 2001 is kind of a similar idea.

Maybe part of the problem is in the first paragraph. Founders/VC types seem to think that being able to make money off of people's usage of your product is the same as "creating value" for those people. To take an extrem

I really came to appreciate this when I got a camera during the pandemic and started walking around looking for things to photograph. I recommend it. Even better maybe if you dispense with the instagram account and the idea of trying to sho

I appreciate that this is a novel non-knee-jerk take on social media but not sure I fully buy it, mostly because the way commerce/the algorithm modifies this “stage” in real time. Art/performance always has and will have some comm

homelessness is a big issue in NYC, it doesn’t seem clear to me that cars have much to do with it, compared to, say, lack of affordable housing. perhaps we could reclaim all the parking space to build more housing

I am biased but why do we even need cars in the city center, or at the very least why should they be convenient? Could there not be a situation where you walk to the edges of the city center to pick up your car and leave from there? There a

Tried to second your comment about playing quietly on a very loud amp but looks like it was deleted. So I'll say it here: at some point I tried playing out of a very high headroom amp, fingerstyle, and it completely changed my playin

but why should it necessarily be that much different? better documentation sure, always. but in my experience Shopify solves ~70% of the cases extremely well and I, having learned some of the quirks, have very little problem filling the gap

There are definitely several ways to set up complex Shopify shipping situations. My livelihood is in good part based on it.

This seems almost too simple & good to be true. The counter points in the linked article mention that its too "computationally expensive" to calculate the payments, and the additional management costs could outweigh the benefi

I do. I go through stuff and use the star interface to track things I want to focus on. Actually I was slightly annoyed that they made it more hidden on the web interface. Looks like they added it back.

I have to say I have literally never once had the thought that Dropbox is in my way. I have a 3TB pro account which I have setup on my studio computer with full sync to an external drive. I record/work on sessions with sync continually

by disantlor 6y ago
For me, Dropbox is a great product that makes my life/workflow with music production so much easier and convenient. Moving interface things around is at worst annoying but really just trivial. I don't understand why people on HN g

are you not just highlighting the fact that there is a First Amendment right but not a broader "free speech" right, which is the very point people are trying to make.

honestly the best solution may be to cultivate other non-programming hobbies so that your time becomes appropriately more precious. unless you're in a high volume or high stakes situation, most of the options give a workable result and

same, had a really bad experience with Stitch. I've gotten a lot of mileage out of custom middleware connections between Shopify and Shipstation. InfoPlus is another one that was pretty decent when I used it several years ago.

it seems more likely that people who are invested in not changing anything would look at data uncritically (what is the source of the data? police? do they get to say what is justified use of force?) and conclude nothing needs to change. i

Even if the studies show no clear bias (the article mentions some criticism and a forthcoming reassessment of the data based on that) the problem clearly extends all the way down to the most minor of police interactions where it becomes har

these comparisons to the flu usually don't seem to factor in transmissibility. seems you cant leave that out of the equation and only look at death rate

That’s a very effective restatement of their premise. I guess the next question is: what happens if this Bob is also many times faster and efficient than the Bob’s we’re used to? In the same way that it works in development but under produc
