Frankly my experience with posting sources on HN has almost never been good. It's often just taken as a reason to pick those apart and start a flamewar. My comment above has been downvoted at least 5 times which makes me confident that

I'm not sure why the comments here seem so dismissive. The mechanism that eyes need red light for regenerative processes is known for a long time I think. I remember a friend working in optics telling me about that a decade ago. Eyes a

"hate speech" is a made up word and neither illegal or "bad". You're applauding a rebranded social score and a secondary justice system.

So the rumors about today were right. But this should not be the headline - TD was shut down many many months ago, despite people clinging to technicalities that it was not the case.

I think this implied that it never was down for him before when it was reported to be down. Which is exactly my experience, too. I've seen a lot of GH down posts here - it never was for me. Now it's the same.

That's quite a lot. The by far most important things for me: Floats guarantee at least 7, and doubles at least 15 significant decimal digits. That's regularly surprisingly low to many devs.

That thing is Streisand effect to the max. No one cares about his name and it wasn't secret at all before, like he said himself. It's literally a google autocomplete. And even without that it's very easy to find. If anonymi

It's against the rules for one - but those only apply to some.

"And I think I’m done with it" and posts on HN. This topic was discussed to death - right now the story right under this is another tech company yielding to the speech police mob by doing another master branch rename. This topic h

Nothing there for repos without releases. That's pretty implicit.

Where did releases go?

Wow that came out of nowhere. Mixer could be so great but they're massively mismanaged with what I guess is out of touch management. They had such a big budget and still failed. Like many couldn't get used to the bad site and neve

That's a difficult discussion. These sites offer so much more than what they're always reduced to. I would even argue that they're sometimes nicer places than Reddit or hn. And even with those icky subjects they're not a

It's not mandatory to be against the things that you listed. Many people enjoy reading and talking about things they're legally allowed to.

The title wasn't meant to be a scare. The quote from Reddit is "against out policies" which was changed to "against their policies". I believe that's fair. And they already announced that these bans will be per

I would try to offer an alternative interpretation: The opposite of that can only exist in heavily manipulated or censored communities.

They would find it offensive - just look at the santa hat debacle of vscode. But they don't know the terms you listed. It's not like these people know anything about or even have an interest in software dev. They're a purely

Inoreader has always been great, better than google reader that everyone is mourning. I've been using it for 7 years now. Today I use it mostly for Github commit feeds actually.

Free speech is only useful if applied to controversial matters. Everything else doesn't need free speech.

No like the other icons in that campaign, like I said. Other symbols included stop signs, another red triangle with an exclamation mark etc. It's obvious that they were just generic symbols - all of them similar and benign. They cons

The other icons used in the campaign are very generic. Even my Telegram has such a triangle not too far away from the also used "slow emoji". Another explanation could be that it is used by the antifa. It might not be as promine

But the exact opposite is the case. As usual only the anti-trump posts are visible while the rest is -4'd within seconds. This story is entirely made up. No one even knew that symbol and it was obviously not meant in that constructed s

"The Anti-Defamation League said" This story is entirely made up. They explained and even proved where that symbol came from. MM even claimed that they ran 88 of them - meaning "you know what". Yes that's actually w
