My biggest revelation was when I realized how to use Emacs to learn about Emacs. Knowing where to look up function, variable definitions etc was an eye opener in my understanding of how things work and are piped together

Why do you think our should not? Sincerely asking. And while I’m here, if you’re implying that Signal is Blut trustworthy, you should step out of the HN bubble and have a look around what everyone and their dog shares through less secure me

I don’t think there’s a correct answer here. Whatever floats your boat. Do you want to scribble things by hand into a physical notebook? Great! Want to use Notepad on Windows for .txt? Or create a .docx using Word? Don’t follow trends and s

Their point was that (i) React becoming the defacto standard played into the hands of Meta, who are interested in tracking people. (ii) Tracking is made easier by running arbitrary JavaScript in the browser. And (iii) before SPAs were big (

Also wondering if, as another commenter mentioned, it might be trying to estimate your location just by network means.

In 2017, the Hollywood actor Shia LaBeouf (and two others artists from a trio called "LaBeouf, Rönkkö & Turner") put up a flag in an undisclosed location as part of their "HEWILLNOTDIVIDE.US" work [1]. > On March

AI slop, but also for all the imagery. The early 00s called, and want their large icons back. This is the worst landing page I’ve seen—almost screams crypto-scam.

But is it more comfortable, then say, an old school analog expensive mattress? I can’t shake the feeling these companies are selling snake oil (that is not to say that old school analog mattresses aren’t overpriced either)

I’m genuinely curious: do you really get back to those tabs and read them? I find I end up in these rabbit holes, then realize what time it is and context switch to something else. Once I happen to get back to the collection of Wikipedia ta

Curious, did you go through the math of figuring out how much the initial file transfer and ongoing cost will set you back (not a lot from the sounds of it). Should be way to do, but I’ve just not found the time yet to do that for a backup

What do you mean, 50 years ago? Go to any smallish town in German and you’ll find a farmers market about once a week, with people shouting at passerby’s to buy their cheap produce. Probably the same in most European countries, and I’d wager

Been using dokku for probably 8 years now? (or something close to that; it used to be written entirely in bash!) Hosting private stuff on it, and an application at $oldplace probably also still runs on this solid setup. Highly recommended,

Sure. That's a very biased way of looking at things. RBs/REs, and even S-/U-Bahn are likely to have ample seating even during "rush hours" in most of Germany. But it sounds like you've never seen cities like Lo

Would be curious to know if there’s an overlap with other retailers. Many “discount” supermarkets in Germany (Aldi, Penny, Lidl, Netto) have such aisles. As far as I can see in the UK, both Aldi and Lidl have similar things here, but not th
