This feels like a parody of itself at times. I really wish they'd make these less cringeworthy so I could actually sit through the whole thing.

Haha I'm jealous. My tv can only boot to an app and not an input, but the operating system it came with is SO SLOW, that I have to use some kind of casting device.

I would be eternally in your debt if you uploaded that FatBoy UO track :) I had to go listen to the original after reading your comment and I can't believe how great it still is after all these years.

What more would you like it to mention? I just read the article and it was about startups that are introducing newer and cheaper options for people who may have used the 12 step program, exactly what the headline insinuates. Maybe it was ch

I tried 3 crossfit gyms. They all played such loud music that after each session my ears would ring and it made me agitated. Ended up sending the one an email, but apparently it has something to do with motivation.

I have done crossfit, other HIIT gyms, weights, swimming, running etc etc. However the best exercise I can recommend is one you enjoy. Try squash, Rock climbing, yoga etc till you find something you enjoy and you want to excel at. This busi

Dude... I was reading all these comments mega confused. I installed Pop_OS a few months back and it's a million times easier to use than Windows. From installing applications to changing my background. One terrible experience I had was

I recently went through an interview process at a few companies. One in NYC, London and Bermuda. The one in NYC required me to do a leetcode style algorithm question. I somehow worked myself into a nervous wreck and bombed out even though I

Imagine you logged into Hacker news tomorrow and they switched over to that design. I would assume they were being held hostage by hackers.

Not so sure. One developer understands his whole code base and environment quite well. So let's say an error occurs during build it's likely he will be able to check out the logs, navigate to that area of code and troubleshoot. In

When he got to the bit about too attractive woman I couldn't read on. Seems really strange to me.

I also use POP!_OS, pretty awesome actually. I have found it to be a really great experience, and I am not sure if this was just fluke, but the installation process was mega easy. Non of the usual wifi driver issues I got with Ubunutu.

Why not the company? I am not really familiar with any controversy around Discord, I just use the software for chatting to my mates.

I know right. I also just came from an article that had to use an electron microscope to photograph the accelerometer in our phones. I never realised how small things have gotten.

This is awesome. I recently moved from Typescript to plain Javascript for a project and it is quite frustrating. You don't realise what you had till it's gone!

I would rather there was more competition for Steam to be honest. Discord may hit a spot where the functionality required of the app pushes it into a territory where it becomes a resource hog and justifies a rewrite in C++ or C#, but we don

I had a similar experience with Ubuntu ten years ago. But now I have been using PopOS!_os https://system76.com/pop which is an Ubuntu distro, which has been the totally opposite experience. After the install I kept expecti

That is exactly what I am doing. I just got an Aero 15 with a 1060gb, which I honestly think will suffice for most games I play. But if I ever get into more graphically demanding games I can hook up an eGPU and throw in a 1080Ti or somethin

You should give Ubuntu an experimental try. I have only ever used Windows most my life, but for hobby projects I use Ubuntu/PopOS!. If you are doing Web development I highly recommend that over Windows. Just last night I tried to setup

I don't have Facebook, and I desperately want to get rid of the panel on the right telling me to login. So annoying. Apart from that really enjoy Spotify.
