Kagi lost focus. I pay for their search and I’m getting close to giving up. I’ve noticed several times that Google Search gets more relevant results for the same query. On top of having a better search AI. Whimsical detours like this feels

Your first sentence is confusingly worded. Do you mean the GP is ideological for saying the movie is unpopular? Or that he's ideological for saying the movie isn't good? I haven't seen the movie in question but it looks like

I reckon this comment from 6 years ago predicts Kotlin's fate https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=24197817 I consider it prophetic. My gut says Kotlin is great for individual developer experience. But I never heard or

I beg to differ on "damn good chromebooks for the $200-$300 territory." I had a phase 2 years ago where I tried many cheap Chromebooks. I initially liked the stripped down experience and "value for dollar" hardware. But

> Zig the language from experimental territory a large degree towards being formally specified Great to hear; I look forward to reading the language spec one day.

Yeah, that's the vibe I got after reading more into it. I respect the CEO for laughing at a melodramatic harassment campaign. The last thing those outrage addicts need is coddling & corporate babytalk.

Title is definitely a distortion on the article, which itself is rather shallow.

It's not "funny" ironic but still ironic, given jb1991's ambiguous accusation around his past ambiguity, with no follow-up information to clarify.

That website was actually https://web.archive.org/web/20230804152033/https://effective... back in 2023. Even less sale-sy than the HN link. I don't think the technical win you want is possible or ev

Your post title doesn't sound like spam to me. Moreover, the link you originally shared https://pragprog.com/titles/rshaskell/effective-haskell/ looks informative enough for discussion; it links to PDFs

You missed the part where Wales called a fact an "opinion". Wales could have said "I don't dispute the facts of that case. I see myself as the founder, but I won't argue against other interpretations. Lets move past

Can you explain that link a bit more? People are implying it shows crazy unhinged behavior but my quick read is just someone posting their annoyances.

GP could have remembered simlevesque's past posts and then just double-checked. The hypocrisy the GP noticed is strong enough to warrant a mention.

The author says in the first link he only heard it reported twice, which I'm guessing is the latter two links (the two discussions) Your second link looks like an X user trying to start a flamewar; the rest of the replies are hidden to

Trumpists tell a similar story about themselves. "Freedom" for the few, ignorance & hate for the other. Rhetorical bumper stickers do feel good; they may even be, on some surface level, true. But they ring like lies to anyone

I've said this before: if you go to Beijing or any developed city in China, you'll be amazed by their progress on EV's. It's on a scale beyond America, that America is no longer capable of achieving. Time will tell of th

Thanks for pointing that out. The text at the bottom is rather misleading.

Thank you for the suggestion. I'll give it a shot later

I’ve been enjoying Vue recently. Its API so far feels like an acceptable cognitive overhead over the raw DOM. Plus, Evan You seems like a pretty stable and drama free maintainer.

Hmmm, I don't see the outstanding part of the rebuttal. While it raises real evidence, it doesn't address the elephant of overeducation. The cited countries, for example, are faltering in myriad ways that their electorates have de

Do you have links to back up your claims? The only context I have is that the OP helped a right-of-center political candidate in his country of origin.

Ironically, the rhetoric you cited actually demonstrates the GP’s point, in part. Beard gave a weak answer: a shallow deflection that suggests credibility but glosses over her own bias.

I saw that tweet and thought it looked crazy. To me, it sounds like a death threat. Especially given that it's posted on X.com, after a really heated argument, with no clarification afterwards. If you didn't actually post that twe
