Remote work is so obvious to the hacker news crowd that there’s no need for it to trend here. What’s artificial is going to an office to use a computer there. There better be food to make up for the traffic.

There are way too many misuse cases for this product. For example - someone who wants to convert good cops into bad cops could use a system like this to target good cops.

A declarative solution that combines terraform + k8s + hardware management, that elegantly partitions between stateful and stateless resources. Stateful resources will have well defined, easy to understand modes of behavior, explicitly desc

The argument against the Liskov Substitution principle was the most interesting to me. It uncovers the principle that makes the world go round: composition. While it’s easy to decompose code into components of single responsibility, I think

Communism is the ideal that empowered the current government of China. Once the abusive tyrants gained power, the economic model became a secondary issue. It follows and there’s a causal relationship between communism and tyranny because th

It comes with a certain level of karma. One must conclude that those with the most karma are the most sensitive to opposing opinions. I’m a bit jaded by the intolerance of the “community” (read echo chamber).

This post being downvoted into oblivion is what irks me about the hacker news community. It’s not enough to disagree, you have to silence the dissenter by graying out their comments. That’s real democratic

Not all physicians are good philosophers, physicists, or psychologists. In this example, we have an opinion piece outside of one’s area of expertise, nothing more. I, on equal grounding, assert that the author is wrong. The burden of proof

PG has one target market. I respect him for that. He’s trying to help the unique people experience their full potential instead of giving into conformity. My heart aches for all the ways I’ve allowed conformity to ruin me, but thankful that

Apple has always been a gated community, but now there’s a guard at the gate checking everything that goes in and out. This is something most users probably don’t want. It has me personally considering what a future without Apple would look

There is an unspoken third option: roll back the ridiculous law that put us in this position in the first place. Proposition 22 is also bad because it’s anticompetitive, which is why Uber and Lyft support it. It would prevent smaller scale

It’s interesting how the author equates independence with leftist ideology. That seems more libertarian to me, leftist support of government expansion is more authoritarian. Ideally a career is a launch pad to a business, or else what are w

Thanks for sharing. One thing I differ from a lot of people on is the idea that faith cannot be evidence-based. Many people of “faith” fake it because they so desire what they do not have. On the contrary, evidence is required for faith. If

The precondition is full sincerity and desire to know the truth. It’s a deeply personal commitment that can’t be argued in the hypothetical/abstract. Either you go all in or you don’t, and nobody else will know but you. I’m just the me
