How secure is all this? Not really into networking and I always wondered if this has any risks.

Content and opinions that change like the weather, just for clicks and engagement. It’s a long way from integrity and responsibility from these influencers.

I think the internet use is usually “reverse uno (card)” which means the tables are being turned, aka what you tried is being reflected back at you.

One of the things you run into as well, is that with all these launches, show HN’s, the companies or individuals hardly show themselves. Like the footer displays no “we are this and this team” , “I am a hobbyist who likes to work on a,b,c”

Yeah, I have been following a subreddit where people offer their new plugin for a software I use. And where it use to be like one or two a week, it’s now a daily “look at my thing I build!” The bar for entry has been lowered, the output inc

Yeah, the snark by some commenters is unwarranted. There is this programmer and he is just chilling, programming and listening to music. Just 2-3 viewers. On occasion I say hi, make a chitchat. It’s harmless and a bit of fun/socializin

Best thing I think of is domain names. Domains are tied to addresses and billing, and sites are people or businesses, with physical locations one can visit. Maybe a good startup idea would be “local verify” , where you check locally for a c

It would be nice if it wasn’t so framed in. How about a simpler “wander” overlay button that stays fixed (a bit like google recaptcha in the bottom corner) and pops up the console with links?

He is already talking about the new engine at the end, so maybe that means a new game/version. Anyway I recently bought it because of multiplayer. Can’t wait to try it out.

How is this not shut down in any form? This is actual insanity.

It’s legit in the sense that they use this originally in forensics to reconstruct faces I think , say a victim or unknown so they can put out a search pamphlet. They know the relative muscular thickness for each area as to compile a likenes

My mention of Gen-Z wanting values is exactly them seeing the bullshit of the sociopaths at the top (and the crap like “we are a family”. Gen-Z sees through that fluff. The values I mentioned in the top comment are exactly about having peop

I really love your post, but I do think (and I come from an artistic background) that some skills have their own beauty, like work of art. Some love for creativity and what we create has a meaning of its own. Certainly worthy of an epitaph

This is a usual pattern, a tech savvy hacker creates this great tool, but if you don’t put in the interface work to make it easy, frictionless, it might as well not exist for the general public to consume. Grandma will never use this. Or no

That was a fun read, and it might even explain why a lot of Gen-z is opting out of any sort of career building, wanting values instead (or next to) a paycheck. They saw their parents do The Office in real life. Interesting is also that Mich

I think Star Citizen might be the closest thing. It’s certainly unparalleled. There is an interesting talk with the techtool guy from last Thursday. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mmxmkx87qcE

I also feel that digital companies get away with “no human representatives”. I should always have access to a human. It should be law. It will screw over a lot of companies and I am all for it since they don’t know what service looks like i
