I too subscribe to theory that "being bored" was an important part of our day to day lives. I think it gave us time to basically decompress and "defragment" our minds, and that is also when a lot of novel ideas or clarif

I fondly remember this game and when I was a kid spent a lot of time playing it. I thought it was amazing with the voice acting for the gods and music and gameplay. I agree there was nothing quite like it released after this game. You can s

tried Gemini 3 and it said to drive, even dropped a type of joke: > The Verdict Drive it if you are using the car wash facilities (automatic, touchless, or self-serve bays). It’s only 50 meters, but unless you’ve mastered the art of tele

Yeah it was always a trick scammers used. Scam emails (the more obvious ones - not sophisticated phising) always had typos or subtle grammar errors because authors don't want to invest time in people that are able to spot such mistakes

Indeed but it feels like a lifetime ago. I miss those days where I would look up to google and their products, as something new, cool and "not-evil".

I feel you, I have the exact same experience. I always see this and I'm bothered by it, yet most of the time nobody else sees it and it's hard to really convey to other people what you mean.

I feel very similarly having grown up with a very overprotective and overly attached mother. I'm constantly struggling with emotions and have a lot of self doubt and don't feel like Im in control of my life. Been slowly regaining

I think this is a very good answer and trying a similar approach and similar methods has helped me a lot in my life. Few years ago I was very easy to get angry over work and code (especially other peoples code!) and I could stay in this sta

In my opinion the most important factor was that it is a superset of JS and any valid Javascript code is/was valid TS code. That allowed for gradual adoption and you didn't have to risk going all-in into new technology.

Proper and wider research is important. Let's hope that these substances become more popular and available to be researched and tested, so that hopefully in 5-10 years we would know their risks and advantages. Then people could make ed

But React is now probably about 7-8 years old. Is it really this shiny new technology that "everyone must jump to"? Yes jQuery devs probably don't get a lot of work right now, and yes you probably should keep up with React it

I believe you are overexaggerating. It has always been true that you needed some kind of local server when doing frontend development. There are multiple browser mechanism that would not work in any way other than when rendering html/c

I don't necessarily think that is such a hot take, but a feeling shared by many of us. And I think that this ties to the title of the post and general discussion - many people (myself included) feel bad when seeing other people achieve

Different people absorb knowledge in different ways. Just because you learned the most by reading articles doesn't mean that is true for everyone. I believe there is value in newcomers/junior devs begin in close proximity with the

I don't really think it was rude. However reading this and your other comments I can see that the way you are communicating (at least in this HN thread) is quite confusing. Your main comment could be read in a way that you almost hate

People can be "alone" but not feel "lonely". But you can definitely still feel "lonely" both while being alone and around others I think this post addresses the feeling of loneliness rather than any specific al

I went through a breakup this year, which was (objectively looking) not too bad, because we managed to end on good terms, but left me personally very very sad and full of regrets. I'm also going through therapy right now, and these two

This may be slightly off topic, but it really resonated with me how you expanded on the definition of grief. I think a lot of people associate it mostly or solely with death. But grief, I think, is a very useful concept that can be very hel
