How do you know it's not GERD? I had what you described. Took 2 months of careful eating and Omeprazole to get rid of... Doctor did a throat/nose endoscopy but couldn't see anything, so he diagnosed based on symptoms alone.

"One weird trick...?" I practically healed my reflux by drastically reducing lactose and alcohol at night (I used to drink half a glass of wine at night) and replacing coffee for tea after lunch. May not work for people other tha

But they all should agree on whether a certain line is correct (ie causes a memory leak).

I once worked at a FAANG company where I had access to some of the leading C++ experts in the world (some were part of the international language committee). I emailed an internal C++ list asking whether a certain line of code would create

The healthcare situation is so difficult for so many people that most would probably agree with everything you're saying but still create an exception for health insurance executives. Your might see more sympathy for vaping companies t

Isn't Wolfram Alpha a better "ChatGPT of Math"?

Same with my family. Sometimes people don't realize that our amazing techie community is a minuscle percentage of the world. People out there don't usually share our interests and passions. With no offense intended, the average pe

I admire your integrity. At the same time, these "rights" come from flawed laws. The code should no longer be "theirs". I won't write a long and boring critique of the current copyright length, but this work should

Long copyrights are a cancer in our society. Just notice the fear in his writing - "without hesitation". We're talking about a ~40 year piece of work here. Patents last 20 years and people keep filing them in the millions. We

I've done it since the very beginning. ChatGPT is a decent philosopher and can make good arguments for and against positions when prompted. It can also provide insights on how apparently unconnected arguments can be related. The approa

What is a good brand today? TP Link is abysmal and my NetGear Orbi is feature light without their subscription. Even then, their app is very buggy. Google and Amazon are full of spyware. I feel I have nowhere to run!

If Harris had won, we would be hearing about how Big Tech enabled the "Greatest Show on Earth", the "Voice of the People" and things like that. This said, the rich will keep sending money to candidates they believe will

Really back in the day you could have a windowed Windows desktop on 1MB of RAM. Going further, an Amiga could run a preemptive multitasking windowed environment in 256KB. I know the feature set is different, but OS requirements have become

For the very same reasons you point out, there is also a style shared by the servers who work at these coffee shops. We would expect young people from the same generation to adopt similar hairstyles, facial hair choices etc. When we look at

It can't, that's why I said it's deficient when it comes to healthcare. Market forces are good at balancing capital allocations in general.

Letting somoene die to make more money is violence. But letting a hospital go bankrupt, which will eventually lead to others dying, would be no better. We still struggle with the life and death decisions related to allocating capital do hea

One cool thing about Algol is that, while the language itself is over 60 years old, most modern programmers can have a decent understanding of source code written in it. It's a bit like reading 17th century English. You don't quit

I wonder why people no longer write technical books with this level of erudition and insight; all I see is "React for dummies" and "Mastering AI in Python" stuff (which are useful things, but not timeless)

I got scammed for a small diamond ring when we got married, but on our 15th anniversary I went lab-grown. I paid 2K for a beautiful ring with a 2.1ct central diamond, fully certified and near flawless, which is a pittance compared to a mine

FM synth is tough to tame, but the possibilities are endless. More so than the standard subtractive VA that most synths use. I feel that we haven't yet fully explored what FM has to offer!

"Measure what you can" isn't the right approach. You can measure many, many things. Instead, you should measure things whenever they are good proxies for the outcomes you want to drive AND there is good cost benefit in measur

The world isn't black or white, zero or one. The main problem with metrics-centric management is that its proponents try to reduce everything to metrics. I was simply pointing out that many situations can't be solved through metri

Awesome blog and post! I'd like to ask the HN community: do you know anyone under 30 years of age who plays text adventures regularly? Twine doesn't count, but I'd accept games with graphics where the main game interface cons
