The conservative Sohrab Ahmari recently wrote a piece in which even he found Musk to be too conservative for his tastes. One of his complaints: >A popular white-nationalist account with the handle “IAmYesYouAreNo” posts a meme declaring,

Maybe most horrifying is that the passengers would have been aware that something was wrong because they would have seen the locked-out pilot swinging an object against the door. There supposedly exists [footage]( https://www.theg

I used to lean towards the belief that Epstein was murdered, but as I read the reports and evidence describing the circumstances of his incarceration, I came to realize that it really was just a suicide, enabled by incompetence.

>One of the best writing tips I've ever gotten was to avoid using demonstrative pronouns. Instead of saying “this” or “that,” you should add a noun to spell out exactly what you’re referring to, even if you’ve just mentioned it. Thi

Software probably sucks because even the people complaining that it sucks will use a software platform that greets you with multiple pop-ups that obscure 80% of the screen. Can Medium just die off already?

I've never heard of this brand, so saying "corn snacks" helps clarify what they are.

Can we just get rid of lossy image compression, please? It's so unpleasant looking at pictures on social media and watching them degrade over time as they are constantly reposted. What will these pictures look like a century from now?

This is so great to see at a time when so many other services are putting more and more of their content behind a gate ( cough Twitter). It's sad that it even feels radical at all.

Collin has been writing more extensively on IRC. A screenshot of one of his posts can be seen in [this YouTube video]( https://youtu.be/0pT-dWpmwhA?t=1158 ). He notes that while he was unsatisfied with some of the changes Tan

I want to caution against taking a good thing too far. There's a certain kind of talented person who is all too conscious of their abilities and is arrogant, irascible, and demanding as a result. Linus Torvalds, Steve Jobs, Casey Murat

It does, but has there ever been a movie that successfully portrayed a compelling drama that takes place entirely on a computer monitor? It's hard to even imagine. It's why I think the novel is still relevant in our age because al

Yes, Lesse, there are many people who rely on this project and it is sad to see it fall into its current state. You must hand it over to someone who knows what they are doing. Now! -- Jigar Kumar

That might be plausible if you consider the post in isolation, but the account that posted it does nothing but post paranoid ragebait of a similar flavor a dozen times a day and racked up an enormous following doing so. They're not mak

I'm guessing not just teenagers. Every day on Twitter, I see posts like [this]( https://twitter.com/BGatesIsaPyscho/status/17741956933237925... ) by accounts with hundreds of thousands of followers that are ind

When all this is over and Collin is in the right state of mind, I'd appreciate if they could shed some light on the social engineering side of this exploit. i.e. the process by which the intruder introduced themselves, gained and explo

As a longtime Notepad++ user, I hate those buttons as well. Fortunately, the settings contain the option to hide the menu, the icons, the buttons on the tabs, the status bar, etc. resulting in a very minimalistic experience, which is how I

Occasionally, someone will submit their new text editor to Hacker News and the first thing I do is check if it quietly saves sessions upon closure. It's amazing how many people don't bother implementing this indispensable feature.

Is there anything cool going on in animation? Seems like an industry that relies on a lot of rote, repetitive work and is a prime candidate for using AI to interpolate movement.

Awesome tool. A note to the devs: the latest version on winget is v2.7.0, which is several months behind the latest version.
