Hacker News is already in the business of policing articles though. This is a curated list of articles that people share, and a lot of unrelated articles are automatically deleted or just downvoted out of existence. This isnt Reddit. It’s o

I think the pipeline is not really about the 30u30 list as a whole, but about the cover of the magazine, which I feel has had a very high rate of fraud.

AWS has existed for like 2 decades now, is that not enough evidence for you?

You can turn on Private Browsing, even on a free account. It also prevents YOU from seeing who viewed you, though, unless you buy premium.

This is also assuming that 100% of layoffs are American citizens. A huge chunk of those layoffs are H1B workers themselves.

This is about KMart Australia. Australia is a country, similar to the United States. You should look it up sometime.

That doesn’t make sense, the 15pro and 16pro were already titanium, and they moved AWAY from titanium for those phones in the 17pro. I don’t disagree that it has something to do with supply chain, but it’s not the titanium cases.

React is significantly more easier to hire for than JQuery is, especially in this market. Especially if you’re looking for more junior roles. As a new grad, I would’ve picked a react job over a JQuery job even if the JQuery one paid me 10k

Europe is also somewhat poorer than North America, to be fair.

Can we stop calling things you find weird “American?” Like Jesus Christ, Europe isn’t some special land where everyone makes food from scratch and capitalism doesn’t exist. I’m not even American, but are we seriously judging people for baki

This is not just an unfounded theory but a completely insane theory. Many (all?) of the countries ahead of the US in test scores also don’t “beat their kids” because that is absolutely fucking insane. It’s such an American thing, to blame s

I think what ICE is doing is bad, but I do feel a bit annoyed with how the media is reporting this. They WERE misusing the B1 Visa a bit - at least that’s what the facts point to, and that’s the only reason they are sending workers back to

I understand you made the app because of your own needs as a someone in a co parenting situation, but you’d have a lot more luck by removing that from your pitch. I see on your website you’ve mentioned friends or roommates which is a much b

It still is, not all queries trigger web search, and it takes more tokens and time to do research. ChatGPT will confidently give me outdated information, and unless I know it’s wrong and ask it to research, it wouldn’t know it is wrong. Hav

There is no strong competition, there’s probably 4 or 5 companies around the world that have the capacity to actually have data centres big enough to serve traffic at scale. The rest are just wrappers.

I never said any of those things, you’re literally arguing with made up points I didn’t make? But my point Hetzner isn’t self-hosted. Similar to how storing money in a bank isn’t self-banking. Self-hosting means you host your content yourse

And I hate to say it, but in this context, Musk would’ve been at least a little useful in having around. I’m aware he’s not the best person to make reliable predictions, but he does run SpaceX. With both the cuts to NASA and Musk leaving th

I’m guessing you’ve never been to SF? The quality of housing in SF is really poor, with most affordable homes being decades behind in renovations and upkeep. This requirement adds unnecessary costs in an already overheated market.

Why do you claim that Hetzner won’t screw you over with your data? What you’re doing with Hetzner is just a few less layers of abstraction compared to AWS or Azure. They can still theoretically take down the machine or steal your data, if t

Quebec housing is not affordable by any means, but still much more affordable than the rest of Canada. Especially when you look at cities like Montreal and compare it to other cities like Toronto. It’s not just affordability, it’s one big p

As much as I’d like to agree with this, India was literally in the trenches of its own civil war and independence movement AND impacted by the world wars AND figuring itself out as a new country in the early 50s. Yet Indian middle class was

Someone who had to take a drug to learn how to control their weight should not be lecturing others on how to do it.
