100% I wish Alan and Meta well. I look at what happened to System Preferences (I mean Settings) and it’s a disaster. Some apps have title bars and many don’t (AppleTV). Just trying to enjoy Apple Music is so painful compared to the old i

I don’t necessarily agree with Jeff Johnson’s conclusion that major software upgrades are impossible on an annual schedule. I also don’t know what he’s looking for, as someone who worked at Apple during this time quality improved substanti

This was really cool to see life as a kid in '84 for some of these stories/games and how you convinced a young kid to copy page after page of BASIC and adapt for various machines. I loved the, "don't look at this unless

Thank you! After Benj Edwards and Kyle Orland's Ars Technica article they published using AI (while saying they didn't), and all the while their article was about an AI agent publishing a hit piece on Scott Shambaugh (matplotlib

I don’t think this is true, wherever I’ve traveled the opposite has held - the finest materials are exported which is sad for the locals. Right away Wool stuck out as an example from Peru. I naively thought that going to Peru would guaran

It sounds like you had to opt-out of arbitration, which is a gotcha.

Why is everyone jumping on the blame the victims bandwagon?! This is not the fault of users whether they were scientists publishing papers or the fault of the general public sharing links. This is absolutely 100% on Alphabet/Google.

The valley is small. Loyalty to your peers and friends will outlast the companies you stop at to work throughout your career. It’s all about the people you surround yourself with.

Loved this! I took my child to work even when it wasn’t the specific holiday so she could see what a real exec review looked like or how boring work could seem to be. The experiment is still running, so I can’t tell you the outcome... yet!

I live on the west coast near San Luis Obispo, we get at least monthly rocket launches from so many vantage points I wouldn't bother traveling to Florida and dealing with all the crowds. Vandenberg Space Force Base is where the rocket

Can you cite your sources on the no tech there [manufacturing]? As someone who worked for Apple for nearly a decade on the engineering teams launching the iPhone and iPad, I beg to differ. While not the most "exciting" to those o

Maybe the problem with cheeseburgers is the bun and sugar more than the meat or cheese itself? I would imagine grass-fed (and finished) beef is better than ultra processed meat – especially if sugar ends up in the finished product!

Not yet, closest option now is a computer animation synced with the confirmation of touchdown at minute 44 of the video. :(

I agree, but why do we need to make it 50+ hours? What if they only worked 35 hours a week with horrible shifts at different times and no consistency at a non-physically demanding job? Work is still work unless you’re living your passion,

A year ago today on MLK day it was only available to those 75 and older. The vaccine in the US has not been available to the general public for a year! Healthcare providers yes, general public no.

Not many technical engineering leaders have a passion for leaving the world better than they found it, especially in an area where they consumed a lot of raw materials to make their life's greatest work. Very few companies are doing mo

I don’t know was weird to see a Trump flag and I realized they were not part of recovery effort. Sounds like SpaceX announced they landing coordinates and that’s why they were able to get out there.

Those that did not take aspirin during the Spanish flu had far lower morbidity rates. Fever is not something I rush to suppress with drugs until I exceed 104.0 - same for my family and even when our daughter was a little tiny thing. Prelim

Having a status light ON for an outside camera seems smart for both sides – pro-privacy & communicating the property is under surveillance. What sounds frustrating is that when your network / wifi connection goes down the status l

Reading that initial report is terrifying. I am so glad the NTSB set the record straight that the driver had his hands on the wheel for the majority of the final minute of travel. Really makes me feel like Tesla was out to blame the drive

I have to disagree as an owner/operator of a vehicle with this feature set. I consider it a major improvement to traditional cruise control, a modern iteration. When viewing it from the angle of full self-driving / autonomy (lev

Los Gatos: Oak and Rye is my favorite pizza from a brick oven and I want to re-create it. :) I have to say in all the years of hacker news, this article was very welcome and makes this place feel all the more special and cozy!
