That’s fascinating to me - all I’ve ever heard is that Boulder is a clean, safe, beautiful place to live (albeit expensive!). If I could handle snow, I would love to live in Colorado.

Agreed. r/Dallas, r/Vegas, r/Austin, all absolutely terrible engagement and the "power local" types who have to make themselves known in every single thread are insufferable. I've stopped engaging with city-loc

I was disappointed to see the lack of engagement here, as I think this is one of the more visually impressive front-end libraries I've seen (and I'm no spring chicken). I love the attention to detail, and even though we have seen

Just donated. Thanks for posting. I think it is both impressive + admirable that you undertook that kind of work. I donate to a lot of rescue charities and this is a whole totally new area I had never heard of (Chernobyl dogs specifically)

They need subscriptions to make money, and paywalling shared asset libraries is how they make sure that you can effectively have a full feature free trial permanently. I really don’t see the problem here. A subscription is what, $12? You ne

Hey, no problem! Best of luck going forward. FWIW I almost never try out Show HNs and recommendations on here, the idea really piqued me. I am always looking to find the next new song or artist I love. So that should be a good signal for yo

Would you mind sharing the routine, or a general outline of how you approached weight lifting from “zero” to “one”? I’m approaching 36 and haven’t lifted anything in 10+ years. But reading sentiments like this is motivating me to start agai

The westernmost part of the state as well: I live 3 hours outside of El Paso near big bend national park at an elevation of ~4000. The winters are chilly at night; the summers are MUCH better than Dallas/Austin/Houston.

Yep. The _exact_ same thing happened with me. Seeing the forest for the trees appears to be a skill lacking at the top at AMC. What's worse, is that the entire thing killed my perspective on the brand. I didn't think of them as an

Could not agree more, AMC+ is an absolute trash fire mess of an app. It is decidedly not competitive in every way. I bought all of better call Saul through Amazon video in order to avoid interacting with the AMC+ app.

It’s this, as well as (IMO) an atrocious user experience in the AMC+ app. I mean it is truly very bad, both from an interaction perspective as well as performance. It doesn’t even hold a candle to the major players in the streaming app spac
