you would be surprised; i would bet on the plurality being > $300k. hard to survive on much less in the bay area, in any case.

i love that we get these comments, even 20 years later. the phone costs what many (most? even?) folks on HN make in a day, after taxes.

will buy it for the kid cue feature alone; what a neat idea. i mainly use my iphone for reading books and taking pictures of my kids so the format will be perfect for me.

hopefully can share some more about it one day!

no, it's not open source. beyond basic things like amending the styling primitives to be aligned with our aesthetic: - missing primitives (toasts/cards/stacks/inline editable fields/alerts/chips/inputs, et

... his whole point was that people don't want to live in cities, which is just factually incorrect. just baseless, pointless idiocy that is just par for the course on HN these days.

sometimes i just really enjoy comments that are just so amazingly breathtaking in their stupidity. it's such a treat.

i've recently built a very complex healthcare application in dioxus and it's been a tremendous joy to work with. right now it's web-only, but the app does run fine as a desktop app when we need it. having SSR built in means t

congrats, lev! brings back fond memories of database fires. i'm sure you'll get 100x comments about "why not just have one fast SSD? it can do 2000 trillion writes/s"

having played that when it came out, my conclusion was that no, i will definitely be able to be on a beach; i am too meaty and fleshy to be good paperclip

do... do the "poison" people actually think that will make a difference? that's hilarious.

that was precisely my reaction as well. phew machines will deal with the timestamp issue and i can just sit on a beach while we singularityize or whatever.

hmm all of my assumptions have been wildly correct and you are just further confirming it. good stuff my dude. sorry you choose a place like that to live. sounds miserable. i'll be sure to wave at the other drivers next time i'm i

oh the humanity, maybe on the order of a few minutes. that changes nothing. we should be inconveniencing human drivers more, if anything. that you feel obligated to use words like "sophistry" tells me everything i need to know abo

your tax money broadly speaking doesn't go to BART; it's massively underfunded. not sure why they are the target of the snark.

as a threads user since the beginning and a big fan of the platform, my answer is strongly "no." which is my favorite reason to be there and i hope it doesn't change. it's full of instagram and facebook users, which to u
