People who set their primary goal to making money and being on the crest of a wave often just can’t resist. I was invited on a call for a new crypto related project and talking to these people is so freaking strange. So many red flags and i

I’ve got this sorted out with work, because I feel fully confident that losing my job is more likely to be net good than net bad. To some extent the job is disposable, they lack the leverage to abuse me. It’s different with family (parents

I did this years ago and it’s great. The only thing worth noting is that only the people I still follow ever engage with the rare post I do make. It’s presumably a feature of their algorithm.

It’s infuriating every time someone even refers to these things as “COVID relief” because that isn’t what it was. That the banner held up to make everyone support it, but that isn’t what it was. No matter how many times people repeat the se

I read daily but rarely feel compelled to comment. Those relatively rare comments also rarely receive an up or down vote. I’m generally amazed how often the more prolific posters comment.

That’s the thing about JS. It’s popular because it was first and grew into a monopoly. The language itself is horrific. We are permanently stuck with a poorly designed language because it has momentum which can’t be overcome.

I check HN once per day when I wake up and only rarely otherwise. I got the social media addiction out of my system years ago on a forum. It was horrible, I had to lock myself out using repeated sha1-hashing which required me to spend many

It’s easy for me to reconcile after living through COVID. There are people in my own family who have emotionally told me they’d never do anything to hurt their family. Meanwhile throughout the pandemic they have purposefully hidden when the

There really is a gigantic portion of the population who seem to completely ruin everything they touch. It happens to everything that gains popularity. That root of the problem isn’t getting better.

Looking back this guide is the one thing I likely wouldn’t have had my career without. It defined me as a low level programmer at a young age and that wired me up to all the projects and companies I’ve worked on/for. There was also a g

That seems disingenuous. It purports to be a repository of facts, not a repository of the contributor’s opinions. Had the messaging up front been “a place for leftist opinions” it would be fine.

I would have fun optimizing this. The performance discussion toward the end of the readme was pretty basic, no assembly language or multi threading optimizations, etc. But I have told myself to stop spending time optimizing things for no re

I often think about what it would be like to live childhood and teenage years again with all you know now. I think in most cases I’d be able to ultimately befriend the bully and be a positive influence on them. I now also understand things

This is what baffled me about the article. The amount of money spent on vaccine development and production likely dwarves the cost of the unvaccinated. They have accidentally argued against vaccines if all we care about is cost.
