Great way to get experience with a bunch of languages quickly! It's not like you'd put these languages on your resume but you can gain a sense for what each one is like/how easily you'd be able to work in it for a projec

I think there's a benefit for some people in letting go a bit. Even if you love your job, you need to understand that the system we work in is purpose-built to exploit workers. It's great to be focused on your work when you'r

Flowable regions would be amazing. Text placement edge cases would be mostly solved by this

100% agree. We shouldn't just stop one company from doing this.

I’ve been in a Model 3 with 1 fender bender and a near head-on collision due to using FSD in just two days. I wouldn’t trust FSD myself for a few more years at least. A major breakthrough has to happen because the current version feels not

Yeah we need deaths per ownership or something.

I think it’s fine with some changes like using iterm with zen/ohmyzsh, but bash is definitely a barrier to entry for a lot of could-be programmers.

> Live below your means. To me, this is the hardest to do. In the U.S., this means going against society's narrative that more/better material things will make you happier. Beyond a certain amount of income, material gains lose

Agreed. If we could force companies to pay for externalized costs we could get to a net-zero earth immediately. Suddenly investments in green energy would increase 1000x

This would MASSIVELY increase engagement in schools. People still act as though it's a no-brainer to go to college, but when you have to take a significant amount of time to do it and pay your way through it it's like a perfectly-

What you described is exactly why I'm waiting to install more automation in my home. I think Matter + Homekit (assuming Apple continues to work on Homekit as it's still pretty clunky for me UX-wise) will eventually be the solution

I agree with this but I don't think the solution is banning by law. The solution for all of these substances you mention is education, prevention, and treatment. Just like with banning alcohol, people will get around it and find even l

I'm looking forward to future iterations, that's probably when I'd jump to get one. I know this is far fetched, but what I want is to be able to dock the steamdeck to my 4k dev monitor and get 60+ fps on steam games while usi

HN is being payed by these companies for these posts. Surely it wouldn’t be too hard for HN devs to have a running list of states that require salary ranges to be posted, and check against that when the customer submits a request. Then it w

I don't see it as an extreme perspective, but one that goes completely against Musk's claims that he is trying to make life better for humans. Republicans largely vote against efforts to fight climate change. Wasn't the whole

I'm in my mid-20s and I cringe at the thought of how much I looked up to Musk as a teenager. I was so impressed by his success and ideas and felt I aligned with his values (evolving the world into a green, multi-planetary society). I p

It's easy to feel dread from it. I totally resonate with that. I do think that PG's tweet there is pretty weird and disconnected from reality too. He claims that founders deserve to be rich. And his proof comes from AI making empl

I’ve been in FSD mode with this exact thing of being too close to the line, it’s dangerous. I wasn’t in the driver seat btw. Anyway, one time we were in a low density town and the Tesla swerved from being close to the center line to literal

I don't understand the Apple car. I guess what makes the least sense to me is the price. The reports keep saying "Under $100k". Unless it's like a 35k car, I don't understand why they would enter such an insane mark

Neutral colors have the added benefit of being more easily resell-able (at a higher price), especially to private parties.

Most coding jobs will not be gone in 5 years. Remember when "automation" was going to take all the trucker's jobs in 5 years? That was about 5 years ago and I'm not seeing many automated trucks on the roads. Of course co

This is still better. The house is not in one persons name. Of course if someone puts their house in your name they’re hoping they have full control over it, but they do not and it’s up to the owner to do with it what they want.

Frameworks for layout in css is one thing, but frameworks are still super useful for skipping the repeated effort of things like dropdowns, navs, typography, sliders, etc.

In the article it states the government will no longer be paying for it and the cost will go to the insurance companies. > Until now, all COVID-19 vaccines in the US have been bought by the US government, which paid $30.48 per dose in it

Disgusting. There are millions of uninsured Americans. Saying this will change nothing for Americans is entirely reliant on every single person having insurance, which is untrue. We need more regulation from the federal government, these gr

We don’t have to manage a server, that’s really the drop in complexity. We just write a function and it runs on a machine somewhere in the cloud. As we scale, AWS just handles it automatically. If the demand decreases, no problem. We just p

It’s a good thing for conversation but a bad thing for the system we all find ourselves in, capitalism. Virality has economic value, so the masses will chase it.
