Just don't watch YouTube. Everything became junk when primed for 10-12, or 26-30 minutes - a race to the bottom. AI's a further nail into what YT was.

The world was very pious then. To have written that paragraph a century earlier may have resulted in ostracizm. To have written it like that was enough given the limited backing that ould be given. It was enough to influence those around an

Dyson always struck me as scammy. All the way back to the 19990s. More proof.

MacOS hasn't evolved. It sticks with old paradigms because it's stuck in its ways. With keyboards, that includes mappings that give RSI and finger strain for the sake of not adding a handful of keys. For the window manager, that i

REGEX that's incompatible with Office doesn't win users. > powerful spreadsheet functions like TEXTSPLIT and VSTACK... ...won't matter to almost anyone when you still can't right-click a row and press 'd' on

You seem to be chatting down some perceived tangental competition in order to chat yourself up. That kind of self-promotion's no good. Especially when picking ethereal "your writing sounds weird" ad homineming a decently deta

If you want an 'in' to money and power, stay close to AI as money and power's been convinced enough to get insecure about it thus chase it with existential money and power. To be fair, this happened a couple of years ago bu

On the one hand, there are lots of articles explaining that #000000 is not true black, and #ffffff is not true white. On the other, there are lots of articles explaining that black on white will cause readers discomfort so recommend camoufl

Be more resilient. HN pussy foots enough. That pussy footing is what causes pent-up voting - its trend followers and "i agree/disagree with this"ers not having the gall to cast first vote. Justifying this will make it even wo

Everyone's answering about using it for coding and deep knowledge work. But what about the opposite: all the other stuff that's surface? Today I had it fill out a calendar, to generate test data meeting specs, to do some simple tr

Back in the day there was a browser plugin for ICQ that let you chat with anyone else on the same webpage. That was ～2000. I'm convinced the web has not only gone nowhere but regressed since 2009.

How edge. As a human construct, prices are also entirely made up. Treating them as a positivist 'given' akin to 'facts' from natural sciences misses the wood for the trees.

Three bars means... the exact same thing the thousands and thousands of times it's been seen before. People have no inate understanding of 'menu'. We don't even read short words like that letter by letter, it's read

I'm curious what's cognitively loading about three horizontal bars arranged in a square located in the corner of an app or website. Screens, somewhat counterintuitively, used to be wider. Because they were not on handheld mobile d

X-Ray can become your friend, vless, vmess, trojan, etc. It's a pity these VPN-like protocols are largely unknown in the west. Shadowsocks, including outline, has long been dead.

The FUD is little more, and in many cases is, one liners that play on insecurity. There is no case to justify an assumption as true. How would you judge the impact of 'technology' over the past 20 years? The 20 years before that w
