I am rehashing this I know, but: We really need to HNify the Internet. Not sure if possible, but a neural network based filter for browsers that enforces HN guidelines on your Google/YouTube searches, Amazon visits etc. The filter may

Oh, nice! Well to me, it is also going to be "just another night". Though it freaked me out at first, but then I saw your post and thought well, you're not the only one who will have an unspectacular New's Year Eve. Whic

I am wondering how other HNers are doing right now? Are you all good and ready for 2021? If you already in 2021: Happy New Year! One thing for sure: My New Year's Eve with an imposed lockdown would be quite boring without HN.

I wish the whole Internet would become an HN. Imagine an HN-esque YouTube (no click-bait and other BS). Imagine an HN-like Stack Overflow (no toxicity and with its own charm and friendliness). Imagine an HN-esque news outlet instead of the

Oh someone mentioned Obsidian way earlier than me? Nice! IMHO: Using Obsidian with the PARA system and the Johnny File System makes a lot of things neat. :) You can use the JFS also for your files and folders.

How about Obsidian? I combine Obsidian with PARA and the Johnny File System. Both are methodologies to organize notes and files & folders. Knowledge graphs are cool. :) Edit: Oh sorry my bad, you were looking for smartphone apps, weren&

"One needs to have solid fundamentals and one needs to be proficient in ephemeral tools. It's tedious." Thank you too for your insightful answer! Yep, OpenGL is quite a good example for an "ephermal" API. Now, I saw

Good point! So my strategy with the fundamentals are a dead end in other words. I would therefore rephrase your last sentence to: "Stagnate on old methods, die on old methods." My focus on fundamentals was really not productive. T

Thank you a thousand times for your valuable input. :) This shows me, that my "intuition" or rather "internal operating system" is flawed and needs to be recalibrated. Yeah, then maybe the naysayers were kind of right te

Your answer showed me how insignificant my question is. And I don't mean that in a sarcastic or demeaning manner. It's just a fact. So thank you! :) (And happy holidays.) Tough maybe there's one small issue: your personal dat
