It tells me that git is the wrong tool for the majority of people but it just happened to stick.

When Snowden, is my question. RFK put a lot of words into "if I am in charge that'll be my first thing". Yeah, he's not the president but he's also not nobody anymore.

I deleted my twitter account not too long ago and now more and more often I scroll down to the bottoms of websites hoping there is a Bluesky link and tada: there is. @letterformarchive.org

I absolutely cannot relate to the HN excitement over rockets. What is the point? What are we going to do with them? It feels like half religion half misplaced techno-positivism. (Also a person who actively platforms outspoken neo-nazis runs

Honestly do not understand why rockets are a big deal. What are we going to do with them? If anything we have too many satellites in the sky as is.

Well I certainly cannot relate to the criticism. I played the game early on as a teen (and every few years since) and while, at times difficult, I never thought the puzzles were "confusing", it seemed like a pretty organic combina

It's one unlikable candidate after another. How does one fire Democratic party leadership? How is it all democratic to leave the choice of the only "left" candidate be down to... who? Some boomers?

To reflect on HN trends for a second: people seem to really like "uncovered" things. Like some lost song, or archeological piece or, as here, identity of a person in a mostly inconsequential context. I also don't seem to reca

My friends are running a company called FOAM Space that has also put a lot of research into 3D terrestrial-base positioning [1]. Their system, though, can also make "claims" about the position, which is a cryptographic proof that

In general the original study felt like a more widely accepted Myers-Briggs of sorts. But as always happens with people and personality related theories the reality is either "more complicated" at best or the theory is outright fa

Yet another study that "explains it" turns out to be false. Good.

Another MIT course that I absolutely love (went through it twice) is "Environmental Technologies in Buildings" [1]. It covers a very wide breadth of topics, like sun radiation, photo-voltaics, wind, insulation, human perception of

I have had to implement a large REST API recently and feel like I spent a lot of time setting up things manually that GraphQL provides out of box. REST tooling has gotten better but so far I have not seen anything as convenient as Apollo, f

What do you mean "app developers are a problem". Don't new apps generate revenue for G?

I think most of the replies to your post suggest that you are correct, even though the downvotes are unfortunate.

I have had the same experience. As a tech lead these days I insist that nobody uses libraries that require a high level of domain knowledge. Basically code that is incomprehensible even for the person that wrote it should be avoided as hard

Can a language that is not running on top of a VM pull this off? I do not think so? Which is why it seems to me we need to revisit JVM for example.
