It's just sad that Americans only unite when it's something in their own backyard. Democracy in the US is collapsing, and people are standing idly by. Maybe they'll leave an angry comment under a TikTok video, but that's

And your experience in a back ally of a tourist place is representative for all people who pay taxes in The Netherlands because.....?

I drove over a perfectly paved road today. My wife went to a hospital that was run perfectly. No charge. The food I ate today was safe. There's almost no criminal activity here. We do not have any active wars.

For some of my projects I use it instead of a CMS. I still have that CMS, but I rarely use it anymore. Could I have used an API? Maybe. But Laravel MCP makes it very easy to run a MCP server.

Cool a science blog! But it's a rehashed article, followed by an infinite amount of random Taboola scams, arbitrage posts, clickbait articles with jarring content. Why does shit like that work better than quality contextual advertising

That kind of normalises Trump, which is totally the wrong thing to do. You should not accept this as fact, nor should you tolerate this current regime. Doing so without protest is the biggest problem you have. Your defeatism is a self fulfi

I just allow access to their application only for their IP address(es) and my deployment server checks if I need to update anything. That's not expensive.

It was very surprising to me 10 years ago to find people who supported Trump on HN. He was so obviously out of his depth in any debate, so obviously a con man and so obviously not that smart. What’s even more surprising is that after all th

That’s not pessimism, it’s defeatism. And it’s part of the reason why the world thinks Americans are stupid. Trump’s supporters are in the minority now and the majority thinks they are powerless. You only need a million people in Washington
