   I experienced a similar situation and decided from then on to get a second adult involved before assisting a stranger's kid. In my situation, a girl was stuck at the top of the highest climbing fixture I've ever seen at a public p

   I loved your writeup. Thank you for taking the time to share what you've learned. It's odd to see such nonsensical detractors here on HN.

   I can't help but wonder if I'm being trolled. This app does not hook kids with garbage, visuals, sound effects, or basic button mashing. The author is also against ads, social sharing (due to child safety), and children being abl

   How is this the top comment? The author's aim is making their app a joy to use because it is for their own children. You interpreted their comment about making things feel like real objects as them trying to hook users like big tobacco

    I have multuple friends who are college engineering professors, and they've been dumbfounded by the lack of basic file system knowledge. I had a hard time believing it, but ive seen it first hand in highschool age relatives.

    I wonder if there'd be an appetite for this in an area w/ population of say 100k people. You'd still have most conveniences, but far less traffic, less distraction, etc.

    There is research supporting the benefits of remote work (less distraction, increased productivity, etc.), and there is research appearing to confirm the negatives. One excerpt from a study at MS[0] "Our results show that firm-wide rem

    I'm at a Fortune 500 that cut back nearly all of its remote work. I prefer remote work, and I thrive at it. However, it can't be denied that there are some drawbacks. A few: A) Training new hires, B) bonding (while those in-offi

    Side hustles can be very fruitful! While not tech related, I side hustled with a friend into starting a specialty wet wipe manufacturing business that we ran for 4 years and sold. The side hustle phase was done on PTO and weekends. We worke

    Amazing. Their leader was busted a long time ago so I thought they were toast. Razor, Class, Fairlight, and some others hold a special place in my heart. (I know nothing of their politics)

    Since you mentioned "early Prince of Persia" being 2007, I thought I might blow your mind by pointing to the 1989 game :)

    Just adding to the sample size: I wear Xero shoes nearly exclusively. I bought a pair years ago, wore them occasionally and increased frequency over time. There's no question that my feet are stronger, and I can only imagine that being

    I attended the best school district in my state, and the history education was absolutely miserable. Didn't cover either World War, but covered and re-covered early American history in a very boring, unrevealing way.

    The battle over the term "tranny" in the 2010s was very eye opening. Some celebrities were being skewered for using the term, though they and a huge % of LGBT folks saw it in a positive light. https://www.unsw.edu.au&#x
