I've been listening since close to the start. I much prefer the episodes around science, music and nutrition but this is HN after all. My biggest criticism is the new format of recording multiple episodes per day. I totally understand

This could actually de-weaponize FB. I quit FB when it degenerated into people arguing over news articles. Maybe now they’ll be less angry and discuss broader topics.

Satellite footage shows that the ship deviated significantly from its shipping lane, and this was observable from the AIS data for several days. The problem is nobody sends alerts from that data, even though there are several websites that

In the current era of resume-driven development, Javascript SPA blobs make me angry but I find it hard to fault the dev team for drinking the kool aid. I'll read the author's content because they probably had zero input into choos

I also don’t buy the narrative of “nobody intends to be mean they just don’t know any better”. This line is popular in management and self help circles and I feel these people haven’t rubbed shoulders with true evil and frankly are ignorant
