I completely understand, I first replied to you when we were the only comments before the move, I was also hoping to start discussion. I've made extremely similar comments as this one of yours, very recently: https://news.yc

I'd love to see these kinds of comments eventually start evolving into more substantive discussion on HN. Sometimes its nice to see select quotes form the article which helps me decide whether to click through and read it. But a lot of

I tried this when it first came out but it didn't seem much better than PyCharm's usual suggestions (which are admittedly excellent among its IDE peers). I rarely to (maybe never?) saw it do any multi-line suggestions, let alone a

I notice the same thing, and I enjoy IntelliJ / Sublime / Vim. IntelliJ often feels sluggish. Maybe this could help: https://blog.jetbrains.com/idea/2015/08/experimental-zero-la... Here was a 3rd p

This is myself as well, enjoying the extremes. Having all the whiz-bang guidance is great and really speeds up my work, except when it doesn't work. Then it's great to be comfortable falling back to something rock solid and unbrea

The thing that keeps me feeling warm and fuzzy is that they dont redirect any links. It's amazing how special I feel when copy/pasting hyperlinks works like it did back in the '90s.

I don't feel this is appropriate. For whatever reason, the OP specifically encoded it to bypass text searches of archived pages. Most of the people here can identify and decode base64, or at least OP intended the message for those who

I'd settle for open API's at this point. And honestly to me seems like a fairly natural way to do "anti-trust" without actually breaking up companies in a potentially destructive way. If other people can make slack clien

As you requested feedback, it's dead simple and I like that. Speed and low friction is super useful in a lot of situations. I have just some "bugs" I guess (Windows Chrome): - Can only add text to a box immediately after sele

I really feel that Vanguard et. al should let votes be pass through. I'm sure there would be massive amounts of abstention but I don't see how that would be a problem per se.

This feels off topic. I agree with these suggestions and appreciate the suggestion for Xournal, will look into that. But TFA focused on fundamental command line tools and shells, not office productivity apps.

This implies that a company could generally survive 50% of their revenue disappearing overnight. This may be true for 1-3 employee companies but past that I doubt it. Also generally the large majority of your revenue still comes from one of

For others seeing this who need a short and simple fix: this seems to happen when your DNS server is 1.1.1.1, changing to 8.8.8.8 or anything else fixes it. archive.is has a disagreement with cloudflare at the moment which makes it unusable

Hugely appreciate this addition. Do you have a good public resource showing current production & transport cost by country or by play? And/or a public list of breakeven prices to eventually earn back capex on new wells? I used to h

Indeed, a 70% drop in exports would be difficult to recoup. However, for sake of understanding: currently about 4-6% of global oil and gas is used to produce plastics. This represents about $600 Billion in total market value. The total glob

I don't see this. Saudi Arabia has been producing around 10.5 million barrels per day fairly consistently-ish for the last 5 years. If anything it's a bit lower over the past 12 months vs the 60 month average: https://y
