What I've really gotten out of this is that I'd like to learn how to use a (proper) meat thermometer when I make steaks.

Are you suggesting that tattoos are uglifying the world or that an innovation like this device is? I am no defender of capitalism but I don't see the connection.

Just thinking about that makes me a bit queasy.

In my experience, as others have said, the shoulder is probably the least painful area to get tattooed, to the point where I also wouldn't call it painful. I'm halfway through one right now which runs from my chest/armpit ove

I wonder why the say "appears to have had," is that an assumption or was it stated somewhere? Without an offline backup, it would indeed be a very serious problem, more than it already is.

"Reading books is overrated" -- what an HN take. You've gotta be kidding me.

I started learning software in the early 2010s and I read a lot of software books like the ones mentioned in the article. I continued reading them as the years went on, but the last one I bought was probably 4 or 5 years ago. Naturally, I p

Same way they do it now. Cold applying, word of mouth/referrals, networking events, etc. Personally my first industry job in like 2012 originated from a networking mixer that I showed up to after seeing a promotional online. My unpaid

When you zoom in to the street map level, the planes are practically invisible with their color and thin borders. Pretty neat though, that's a lot to load and keep smooth.

Maybe this applies more towards adults, but I don't think the correct answer for kids is only "just have self-control," something kids are notorious for not having. Certainly there's a lot of parental responsibility here

If we want to compare it to alcohol/cigarettes, then kids shouldn't be allowed to use this either.

Really ironic given that they pulled the rug on general aviation usage.

Same here. I quickly learned that if you merely ask questions about it's understanding or plans, it starts looking for alternatives because my questioning is interpreted as rejection or criticism, rather than just taking the question a

> Yes I can. I even provided an example for exactly that: `[4]any` can hold references to any type. And now you've lost type checking. `(&'static str, bool, u64, f64)` is not the same as `[4]any`. > A lot of things are u

I've only written a handful of production projects in Go so my experience isn't very deep, but I find the syntax to be the ugliest of any PL. The mixed capitalizing based on function privacy, to me, is awful (among other things, i

Zed is the only editor I've been using for maybe two months or so. But I find the extensions still sorely lacking and the API not extensive enough yet either. Still, I really love the design as well as how AI was builtin, and some more

Anecdotally, my cats meow at me a lot. But they're my cats (others live in the house and help care for them). I also meow back more than anyone else. In fact, I might be the only one to do so. :)

Anything to avoid stricter gun legislation. This type of incident will be considered an unfortunate but necessary sacrifice despite how dystopian it really is.

I am on a team of 2 people with a dedicated manager. That is, the manager does not write code and is not even really technical. It is awful, send help.

My grandpa (father's father) grew up in Rochester and that was the first time I visited New York for a family reunion, way back in the early aughts. Kodak was the major employer in town then; he and practically everyone he knew either

This was envisioned by the movie Interstellar where the opening scene shows them chasing an old autonomous Indian Air Force drone that had been flying for years, ostensibly after that agency ceased to exist. I'm sure it's been in

Whoa, you and the other commenter are the only ones I've ever met who even remotely relate to this though (I've never bothered searching it out on the net). That's actually kind of a relief. For me it also coincided with just

Only sort of related, but I'm almost completely unable to smoke anymore. I used to smoke heavily in my early 20s (33 now). Now if I take more than one hit of anything, I'm liable to have an anxiety/panic attack. I can hardly
