   If I see a Medium article on HN, I immediately hide it. As others said, its a garbage site that is ONLY interested in making money for itself, at the cost of everything else, including user experience. If you want me to read your article, D

   why do you act like Google Chrome is the only browser? All you have to do is look at what other browsers do. For example, Firefox calls it "New Private Window"

   I don't think its as popular as you think it is. Plus its used by a bunch of other crap: https://hn.algolia.com/?q=TFA so its probably worth just spelling out the thing.

    Just write a server; don't bastardize GitHub Pages. Why do people bend over backwards to avoid using a server for anything? Its literally 11 lines of code: https://go.dev/play/p/vUo6wKni3_A

    yeah, they really can. Flights are a sellers market, they run near empty flights often. Plus less people are using AirTags than you think. Again, I think its a dumb rule. But don't think you are special and can just ignore it forever w

    It is arguable. I would be fine if Apple crashed and burned. I don't use any Apple products. My company does, but Apple folded, I'm sure we would just move to Android or something. Apple is the only company I have ever seen, that

    That doesn't apply. Streisand effect is for people who want to suppress something. I don't care if you look at that Twitter. I just know that I found it unpleasant, so was just putting a warning out for others.
