I wonder what people would say if mechanics were tested for their understanding of mechanical engineering intead of how to do an oil change. That's what the emphasis on computer science knowledge seems like to me. It has no bearing on

Woah. I'm glad you revealed this to me before I stumbled into a year-long yak shaving session.

What do you like to bake? I have never attempted. I would like to surprise my wife one of these cold winter evenings.

I live centrally, in my town. The nearest library is an hour walk. The bus would be at least 30 minutes. I'd have to know beforehand that I need to reserve a computer before using it, and that spots fill up quick. I'd need to get

Thanks for inspiring some hope in me Bart. I think today will be a good day.

AGI is coming. In a contest, the only chance humans have is to work in tandem with AI. Horror in the face of these changes seems to presuppose that humans have some inherent essence to lose. We're material. Nothing of consequence to ou

I haven't tried any therapy. I'm not sure at what point the benefits outweigh the cost in time and money. I'll look into it further as I've honestly never considered it as a treatment for gastro problems.

Seriously, talk about tight feedback loops. Anxiety feels like somebody hooked it up to guitar amps. Any slight perturbance and alarms go off. I have not been super successful in mentally wrangling it, but there's always hope.

Sorry, this is not helpful. I guarantee you that anyone who suffers gastrointestinal disorders has considered their diet. The pain sometimes feel like a bottomless pit of suffering.

When the dude from Alibaba got disappeared for a few weeks, I said to myself, "Well, I won't be starting my next trillion dollar business there."

That makes sense. I'm not sure why the right to reason didn't cross my mind. Maybe I presumed it in the scenario I pictured. I'm not convinced that governments should have mandates to pursue truth at all costs. I think the tr

By the time Machiavelli wrote The Prince, the very act of writing the book was a tracer round to rampant political cynicism. Once an attitude or ideology is the target of satire, it has already bcome interwoven into a society. I presume tha

ObservableHQ changed my life. Coding is fun again. I use it to quickly experiment with new libraries, fast prototypes, as proof of concept building, NLP stuff, etc. And I can do it all on my phone!

I tracked every minute of my time several years ago, for about a year. The shock of how much time I was spending playing Battlefield is what helped me kick video games.

This is about as good as it gets with crypto.

I feel spoiled having most of my experience in js, react and node. They like, try really hard not to totally break shit.

This is one of the few usecases of crypto that kinda make sense. If those certs were on a blockchain, Rolex could fold and people in the future might still be able to check for authenticity. There's more steps involved that I'm no

People eat shrimp and crab and lobster. Bugs are arthropods as well. They seem to perform similar functions in different contexts, eg, they feed on the waste of other animals. The difference is historical and cultural inertia. Buttered cock

A lot of my guilt around my job search is failing the trad "male provider" role and seemingly inherent status anxiety around being a man. I would feel fine working at 711 and coming home to grind on code. I'm not an atom thou

Except for severe chronic health issues, healthcare can probably be handled by walk-in clinics for a year. Those are generally $100-$200 per visit. Medication costs can be lowered with services like GoodRX, which I think even has a trial mo

Your assumption about the demographics of HN is counter to everything I've seen. Most of these people do have money. Simply by virtue of being professionals in the US, they are part of the 1%. If someone was really inclined, $20k USD w

A tangent, but whatever those companies or services are is completely indecipherable from the names.

It's even worse when you crush every other part of the process, including take homes, and then get blown out due to one idiotic contrived puzzle.
