The first example that I think was meant to show "bad" is still about 100 times better than my handwriting has ever been.

You are missing option C: College classes simply don't teach very much.

I don't necessarily think this game needs progression at all. Wordle is a game where you gain information with each attempt. Triword doesn't need any additional information at all. There's one solution (or should only be one

This is exactly it. In most cases what I've seen is that "this meeting could have been an email" can be almost always be responded to with: "This meeting WAS an email. You didn't respond. Now it's a meeting.&qu

That is also a very reasonable hypothesis. It would be interesting to know the economics in this case, if that turned out to be true. Spinning up an entire automotive engineering R&D division seems like a very expensive way to generate

The article clearly states that data is stored on the device. That's the exact use case described - where people do not want any of their data stored on a server they don't control. If that's you, and if privacy is important

Seems odd to me that Apple would invest in developing a car instead of just focusing on the in-vehicle interface device. Then again, Apple has a long history of wanting absolute control over form factor, so they might believe their better s

Empathy goes both ways. I think "tired maintainer" is narrative device to elicit empathy, so I don't necessarily believe this is true of the author, but if maintaining an open source project makes you tired, maybe don't

There's a couple of key differences between Google backing Google+ and Meta backing Threads. 1. Meta's entire business is social apps, and Google's is not. There are strategic differences in approach as a result. 2. Google

That doesn't make sense. Federated social networks have the same hard problem as centralized ones: social networks require people. The part that's hard is the people, not the technology. Centralization and federation have nothing

I think this is becoming increasingly less true. The primary media center in our home is an XBox Series X. We use it for games, movies, television, youtube, and music. It gets much more use playing videos and music than it does running gam

This is a super important space and hard set of problems to solve. Kudos for taking it on and sharing what you're working on. Couple of points of feedback, take it for what it's worth: - I don't really know who your customer

SyncThing looks like exactly what I want for things like this, rather than a bunch of self-hosted web apps. Why self-host when you can p2p? (A little tongue-in-cheek. Clearly there are use cases for both.)

It's amazing how the "macro environment" is responsible for all the layoffs, but never responsible for any of the growth. Even companies aren't immune to fundamental attribution error.

This website has a hit counter and it made me smile. I love retro projects, even if they do make me feel old.

This is about a game and a gaming company. HackerNews is about sharing things that may be of interesting to software hackers and startups, not necessarily topics directly related to those two things. https://news.ycombinator.com&

It's exactly that. Jason and DHH have built their entire personal brands on contrarianism. It works for them, but at a certain point it feels inauthentic.

This is exactly my thinking. In this context, I think the paper depends on an implied ambiguity of the word 'neighbor' and how it's used in the context of orbiting bodies. When I think of 'neighbors' in the context

Brilliant. I love that the cycle tracks time between pixel draws too, so you can add in different delayed effects.

I don't think that's necessarily true. The article even mentions just talking to people about their role (that's not content), and then highlights why content consumption might be more efficient. You could also learn about a

It happens in most contexts where generational change occurs within a group. We tend to treat the current environment as though it's been around forever, and often, as a group, remain unaware of what happened in the past. As more turno

That's the idea, of course. But the definition of 'article' is pretty vague, which opens the door for all kinds of garbage content. If you shut your brain off and just let the algorithm feed you, you're going to end up s

I think we're very close to the point that even video won't be confirmable to be genuine. If it could even really be said to be so now. (Instagram/TikTok are the most performative/contrived content platforms these days)
