HN's lack of subdomain- & tilde-checking would make this work strange, I think.

Banning (2005-2019) is a strange decision as well. Wow!

There's a ban on *.org? Yikes.

30 minutes during busy hours seems optimistic. I've seen it get as low as ten, but very few people check past the first five links on /new anyway.

I saw an AI 'meme generator' the other day that seemed to make fairly insightful and funny memes. I think the future is close, and...very strange.

Truly impressive results, though I find it unsettling that there's a decent chance that the future of all Internet aggregators is going to be "We threw data into computer and it threw out magic thing!"

Thanks for linking to this discussion; I missed it when it happened.

GitHub has always been a proprietary company unconcerned with user freedom. They actually have a whitepaper that predates acquisition on exactly this: https://resources.github.com/whitepapers/introduction-to-inn... The

I can only imagine how the people at GitHub paid to work on Atom are feeling right now. Microsoft hasn't been kind to them!

Depends on the 10 year old, I think. I'm not advocating for a lower driving age, but it seems like many of them would be better drivers than 16-18 year olds.

It's not an inability . It's just that there's no reason for complexity. C++, for example, is a language built around managing complexity. k, on the other hand, is a language built around avoiding complexity. SLACK is an a

It's a small car by US standards, and the kid is wearing a sweatshirt that's incredibly baggy, along with shorts that are oversized-enough to be swim trunks. The seat is also reclined. There's a lot of optical-illusion going

How do you define 'in trouble'? An older-looking 14's the mark where I think you'd see actual repercussions, but I can't imagine people would be particularly-impressed if the boy was double his age (plenty of kids c

This may be a question you get a lot, and I apologize in advance if it is, but: Why use Mac, if it makes so simple of things difficult?

Good question! You're generally quick to ask questions in any threads of any APL variant, so I'll answer for both it and k: Workspaces are the answer for APL. This one is generally more-agreeable to your average person. Here'

They're useful for a lot more than math, certainly. APL has a lot of world-firsts that wouldn't really make sense for a language useful for nothing more than math; looking at the history of IPSA and similar will probably give you

GNU APL is pretty slow and makes some controversial design decisions. Fun to play with, though, and remarkably polished.

If you ignore that the tooling is proprietary, it is pretty great. Most people can't/won't (myself included), so it's a bit more dubious of a claim under that light.

The lack of modules as a first class feature [...] hurts the discoverability of community made modules. A related issue is that namespaces/contexts can't be nested. Another thing that always feels like a thorn in my side when I&#
