I've got very mixed feelings on that. I'm not entirely sure that someone should be able to come into another country as a non-citizen and go around drumming up support for our foreign enemies. I can tell you no other country on Ea

While I am usually pretty skeptical about this sort of thing complaining about "kids these days" I am genuinely unsure what is going on in our high schools. My niece recently graduated with a 4.0 GPA. We played Trivial Pursuit wit

Yes, I had the exact same thought. $35 is a lot of money to people who aren't tenured professors or fully employed developers like myself now. The lack of understanding of economic realities just kinda stinks. It was a long time ago no

About 2 years ago we got a deal on a smallish Samsung for our nursery. The thing is haunted. On more than a couple occasions in the middle of the night I've heard people talking. On working up the courage and getting out of bed I'

I've commented as much before but what do people even use office for these days? Like I hear individuals complain about the prices and I'm just like I have not needed a real office suite in years. Google Docs has been enough to ge

I can understand why an article about your posts getting flagged on Hacker News might itself get flagged on Hacker News. Besides attracting the obvious flaggings for the sheer humor of it, the post itself kind of just comes off kind of insu

In the late 1990s my friend was writing a game for his TI-83 calculator in TI-Basic. He was running into this bizarre bug we boiled down to a single IF after almost an hour of back and forth over a single calculator. The IF was not behaving

I see a real world therapist but there are genuinely topics ChatGPT is simply better at. I also feel like real therapists almost have too much state. They know too much about you to just let you talk. They like to try to tie all your proble

Yes! People love Cobra and yet every time I've used it, it's felt super janky and unreliable at actually doing what you think it should. Not a fan.

Oh, interesting! I started a very similar project probably ten years ago and just never got it to a very usable state. My idea at the time was based in wanting to be able to write tests for the final output of scripts full of control codes.
