I always find myself assuming the person writing the comment I'm reading to be a middle-aged white male, and I feel dumb and ashamed when I realize that's not it. FWIW I'm a white male living in a western country so I'm

FWIW the assistants probably would not recognize most of these people's accents. Not to speak of whether people would be inclined or not to make the effort to speak a foreign language to their assistant. I'm French, have a good le

Just celebrated my 6 years on HN last month, and a little over half way there myself. Not sure I'm wise enough to downvote correctly though: sometimes I wish to downvote someone because what he said is stupid, but that's not how y

Same. I use hckrnews.com to have an up-to-date list of recent topics discussed on HN, quickly skim it for headlines that stand out, but mostly focusing on highly-commented posts (50+ when in the morning, 20+ later on in the day), and I read

I remember using Witch, but a very long time ago. I remember stopping using it, though the reason escapes me. I've been using Contexts for what feels a year, and I keep using it. It's that good.

Anecdotal data: my parents (aged ~60) refuse to use their smartphones for GPS and have a dedicated device for this. They only use for long distance travels and never optimize their shorter travels (one could argue the long-distance travels

In case you didn't know, and if I read that correctly, you can just tap the animoji (when making a face) and it will insert as a still image.

Anecdotal data for “I love it so far” here, too. My MBP is a 2016 model, decked-out 13-inch. I can't say I love the Touch Bar but I don't dislike it either. It works fine. I wished the Touch ID sensor was used for more dialogs–som

Last year, I clocked in at 565 days spent in World of Warcraft (since February 2006). I have since stopped playing that game, unrelated to the time spent. I do not regret a single minute spent playing that game with my friends and family.

Probably a bullpup machine gun, like the Famas, especially for the French military. Not sure about the terminology though: is a machine gun? automatic rifle? Frog here, not used to guns.

Indeed! The auto-expand bit is largely done through userChrome.css (someone shared a solution that I've tweaked very lightly, props to the original sharer)

Since the most recent version of TST, the author has added a barebones style, which can be customized at-will thanks to the custom styles textarea in the addon's settings. I've fired up the Browser Toolbox to get all the correct C

I went back to Firefox for Quantum after a very long hiatus — mainly Chrome then Opera (Blink) — and TST was a main factor of my switching. Once it's customized to my liking, it's even better: https://imgur.com/gal

I paid for all Battlefield season passes, and would continue to do so if given the option. The franchise has some of my most-played games (350+ hours in BF1, 150+ in BF4, 550+ in BF3). My only grief with the paid DLCs and season passes is t

In French, we say "viens à 21 heures," or "come at 21 hours," quite literally. Yes, "hours" is a duration as one poster commented; and yes, also in French. But the context gives the meaning away.
