Meta (Facebook) always had a problem in execution even when their vision was solid which is sadly a rare occasion. This is why meta just buys products instead of developing its own (Instagram, Whatsapp, etc). It had a moment with the ray ba

I fully agree. My use case sees a fairly intensive use of MacOS, Linux and Windows, and out of all these, MacOS is the worst experience for me, and that's saying a lot when I prefer to use Windows 11 over MacOS. Macs have very strong a

The worst has to be in movies or TV shows when they play this ring after something happens (car accident / loud bang / etc). It's like it doubles the tinitus amplitude and it's excruciating. Every time I see this in a mo

Once again, no. Nowhere does it say the intent was to cover it up. Failure to portray the situation accurately can be a result of several factors, like participating soldiers being in recovery and not able to fully describe the events, misu

You're detracting. You made a comparison between Israel and the nazis, which is wrong, and is extremely far reached. Answering with "all people have the capacity for evil" is once again a subtle misdirection which seems like

Sorry to nitpick here, but using satellite from literally a different time cannot be part of the reconstruction of the events they appear to be showing in the post. So, this is just one of numerous small but misleading details. The actual r

The ones killing Iranians indiscriminately are the Iranian police. Let's see your sources about Israel killing all these Iranians in the last conflict. Israel was too busy hunting ICBMs and had no interest in killing Iranians on the st

Nice try, Khamenei. Good to know you managed to power on your router today and visit HN. Seriously though, Iran has repeatedly declared that the U.S. and Israel should cease to exist. It funds militant groups across the Middle East. It clai

Just wanted to say don't worry about it too much. I do advocate for writing because I like it and I feel it rewards me. But you made a decision to do it a certain way and that's fine. Don't let people tear you down for this.

I don't agree that it's flawed. There's so much to gain by writing your own words. It's something to practice and after a while, it's even fun to be able to express something the way you intended. Even today I do my

This sounds cool, but: 1. Pretty sure you can do all this already, it just takes some skill in certain programs and maybe recording special samples. 2. When the AI does it, it might sound weird and new, but I feel the lack of artistic visio

No matter how long we waited, we did not feel ready. There was always too much to do, it was never really the right time. At some point we just gave in and perhaps we should have done it sooner. Having kids in a later stage has a lot of adv
