The HN community is way more diverse than that, though you're probably spot on for a slice of the community. At least in my experience they are nowhere near the majority.

I agree that this proposal isn't great. But also that you're not responding to what the comment is really saying - it's responding to the "just use rust" suggestion. If Rust is a good choice, great. But that doesn&#

Clearly, this is not for you. I work in video games, most games use Unreal Engine, most existing toolsets and dependencies are built on C/C++, I have 17 years professional experience and nearly 30 years including hobbyist experience in

For a bank, evicting someone from a house is expensive and the departments they have to handle it are very understaffed, their risk is so spread out that not getting 6 months payment is barely a blip. For a landlord, any loss of income for

I misunderstood the Supreme Court ruling that it hinged on personalization per user of algorithms and thought it made a distinction between editorial decisions that show to everyone vs individual users. I thought that part didn’t make sense

It is absolutely still arguable in court, since this ruling interpreted the Supreme Court ruling to pertain to “a tailored compilation of videos for a user’s FYP based on a variety of factors, including the user’s age and other demographics

Amazon is an expert at toeing the line, be it monopoly laws or product liability. I thought it was their biggest mistake to join the race to the bottom when taobao started eating into their margins - I still wish they positioned themselves

This might be the most passive aggressive thing I have ever heard. England truly elevates passive aggression to art form EDIT: Someone downvoted me, so I should say I grew up in England until I was 14 so I'm allowed to say this! Downvo

Sorry, that was an incorrect thing I was taught and I never checked it... The ratio of a perfect fifth in 12TET is always 1.498307, not exactly 1.5, but it's close enough to 3/2. The deviation from "simple ratios" is mor

I think you need some info in the start of the article about why 12tet was invented, what problems it was solving and how it fails. Like - In Bachs day you'd have to retune the instrument if you changed key signatures and you could onl

It was def the dreamcast - the first model didn't require any hardware, just a burned CD-ROM. It's demise and Segas departure from consoles is blamed on the amount of piracy. A real shame, because it had some great games

It's weird to me that Gurdjieff is never mentioned when people talk about enneagram. I guess the personality stuff is inspired by Gurdjieff but deviates from it. But I would bet a lot of HN readers would dig Gurdjieff. If you're i

I’ve noticed during meditation that the words come after the realization - I think we put thoughts into words after out of a habit of trying to explain our thoughts - we’re imagining how we would explain it to others.
