Everything the author complains about occurred in the dot-com bubble as well. His view that until 2007 founders were lovable nerds is completely off-base. In Silicon Valley, the same dynamics of start-ups chasing money, then getting it and

Take this difficulty and make the desired sound piano and put the whole thing into 1960s technology and you can see why recording studios were never able to remove Glenn Gould's humming from his recordings.

That readability is the upside of COBOL’s oft-assailed verbosity.

One additional benefit of Fastmail is fast, helpful tech support. The few times i’ve needed them, they’ve answered quickly and given me what i needed in the first response.

Looking at the suggestions for self-hosting here and in other threads, I wonder why self-hosting Fossil is not more widely done. From the comments I’ve seen from its users, it seems to work quite well.

Yes, they’re allowed to make changes and you can either accept them (the matter being discussed here) or refuse them. But you do need to be given the option.

Not sure I understand what you mean by "scientific." If you mean exactly reproducible, then almost nothing in athletics fits that definition. Every record in baseball, football, etc. would fail that definition.

And the only place this appears on ESPN is if you click on "Olympics," which has nothing to do with this race. Where coverage should be: on the home page.

The actual quote, both from the movie and IRL is: "The white zone is for immediate loading and unloading of passengers only."

I have the hard copy of this edition and it does contain some curious things. For example, if you look up "boiling." You might expect to read about what happens to a liquid when it's heated to a certain temperature, or perhap

The models test roughly equal on benchmarks, with generally small differences in their scores. So, it’s reasonable to choose the model based on other criteria. In my case, I’d switch to any vendor that had a decent plugin for JetBrains.

While I don't share your condemnation, I do share your critique of the design. When I tried Notion--really wanting to like it--I could find essentially zero documentation about how to do use those numerous features. After wasting a ton

The few times I've needed support, Fastmail has responded nearly immediately with the exact info I needed. So Moz would need to demonstrate excellence in customer service before I would consider any migration. (I know that doesn't

Jacobin[0] a JVM written in entirely in go. While we still have a way to go to get to feature parity for Java 21, we can sit back and watch the bytecode instructions fly by as they execute, which is something you can't do with the JDK

I can see switching from gmail, but it would have to be really compelling to get me to switch from Fastmail.

That is an interesting project, which i have been following for a while. Unfortunately, progress has slowed a lot recently. I hope development picks up…and that the author chooses a different name for the language.

There are many exceptions to what you state as an ironclad rule: i bought a display case for my baseball, i bought an album for my photos, etc. “for” can go in either direction.

It does not exist in Java. Comments in Java do not change code.

Agreed. There is definitely a similarity to BDD.

J6 is not a strong counterexample, IMHO. Part of the problem with Epstein is "proof beyond a reasonable doubt," for which evidence is needed--and, it appears, hard to come by. Whereas with J6, there were thousands of hours of foot

But if you go to the search box at the bottom of the HN page and type in 'go' the first hit is "Julian Assange has reached a plea deal with the U.S., allowing him to go free," In the top 10 results, only _two_ are about
