I've been using the same arch + i3 setup for at least 5 years, never had to change my habits due to an update (except thunderbird which is becoming worse and worse). I've lost a lot a lot of time setting up hibernation and sleep a

Being two different projects has advantages, especially when one part (need to) moves much faster. The fact that some requires custom logic doesn't prove that you need a programming language, it is just custom logic compared to the sta

Why don't they split youtube-dl in two parts: - The extractors part (all the scrappers basically) - The cli tool What would be wonderful is that the extractors part is splitted out, so that anyone can use it without using youtube-dl. T

The success of OF is more a question of demand than offer honestly. During the lockdowns they were a lot of guys with money to spend but could not spend it on social activities, so a lot of it went on internet websites. But there is also a

Can we ban discussion of covid restrictions on HN ? At that point nobody is going to change his position. Pro lockdown people will not change their opinion even if there are proof that masks mandate and lockdowns dont work Anti lockdown peo

You won't find any. Masks reduces the spread by the person who has covid, and it only reduces the spread if he wears it at all time, which is going to be the case in a study but is never going to be the case in reality. Covid doesn&#x2

Almost none of the 20% people mentionned had a MRI scan. So you don't answer the question. The problem of long covid studies is they don't have a control group, so it is easy to say wrong things. Its probably closer to 1-4% than

Vaccinate all people greater than 40 years old, preferably anyone and resume a normal life. Even though the vaccine doesn't prevent to catch covid to high degree, it still prevent deaths and hospitalizations to more than 90% (whether D

Being rational doesn't prevent you to be wrong. If your assumption is that the government tells the truth and you conclude that mask don't work. Then you have reasoned rationally. But if you dont trust the governement, and for thi

It's debatable, because to make that amount of money you will maybe do bad things. Or at least thing that made people unhappy. Extreme scenario : one person makes all the people of the world work for him during his entire life. And the
