HN seems to remove certain adjectives and, I guess, adverbs to minimize the sensationalizing of the titles (I assume). I was surprised by it recently when a title I submitted got "Massive" auto-removed even though length maximum w

Airbnb is down 10% since going public. Coinbase is down over 50%. I think some skepticism around pre-IPO valuation is warranted.

They are talking about 177 database nodes, which is not an indicator of architecture complexity. I assume they have dozens/hundreds of services consisting of multiple highly available nodes each across various geographies. Having seen

Multiple comments here talking about how Zuck doesn't care about the team. That is not my read at all. He specifically says that he wants to both fix the team and ship the product. What he does have a problem with is the sole focus o

Highly recommend watching The Americans, an incredible show about Soviet spies pretending to be a regular American family. Based somewhat on real people, and very well-researched.

Another +1 for Bambu. Recently replaced an older Ender 3 with P1S and it's been a breath of fresh air. Ender was much cheaper but the many, many hours I spent on tweaking both the software and hardware... I was many times ready to give

It's a mix. I use my registrar's (Porkbun) email service for human communication (name@, support@, etc). Added those accounts to my personal Gmail inbox so I can send/receive using Gmail instead of logging into the registrar&

It's odd, because I haven't seen cache links on Google for years. I used to rely on them quite a bit and once in a while would try again and run into "oh yeah, they seem to have dropped this feature." This whole thread i

You might indeed. I do as well, and the long scenery descriptions are basically fluff to me, adding nothing to the experience. That said, I quite enjoy fiction, so that must be something else.

It didn't really survive though, in the end. In January 2006 the company was bought out. Per Wikipedia: "The old Kongō Construction remained only in the real estate division and changed its name to KJ Construction Co., Ltd. The ov

I can't imagine the current state of AI supporting these types of interactions (or humans wanting to deal with AI on the other side), but would be happy to be proven wrong. I suggest focusing on this single use case of yours and applyi

I'd highly recommend reading The Manager's Path by Camille Fournier. It has great directional guidance for folks starting in leadership (and experienced ones as well).

It's fairly straightforward but widely misunderstood (or misapplied), hence the level of cynicism in these comments. Every level carries with it a certain set of expectations. Once you get promoted, you're now subject to those exp
