__warlord__··on How likely is losing a Google account?
I have a question.

All my domains are registered in google domains, if my account gets locked... will those domains also be locked?

Also, which domain register would you recommend besides google domains?

BTW: google domains is the only service I currenly use with a google account.

__warlord__··on Twitterrific has been discontinued
Imagine if Elon builds his "x app" where everything about you is stored, your money, contacts, social networks and all of the sudden he wakes up on a random Tuesday and decide that he wants to ban everyone who hurted his feelings the day before.

I know him blocking access to third party apps might not be related but it sets a precendent (which already everyone knows) that doing business with him is not safe.

Shall we rename "Hacker News" to "Elno News"?

Why do we keep giving an individual our attention EVERY SINGLE TIME HE TWEETS?

__warlord__··on Guinness World Records: Elon Musk has lost more money than anyone in history

__warlord__··on Ask HN: What are your strategies to retain something that was recently learnt?
When I learn something new, I try to find relations to existing ideas or topics in my head and to map them together. It helps me to reduce the cognitive load as well as see, for example, if I solve something similar I could just reuse "it"

Also, I inmediately try to find a way to make it useful for me. This is not always the case because I tend to read more rather than "do" more but it helps me create even more relations in my brain.

Also, from time to time I revisit the topic and do the same steps as before because in the meantime I could have learned something that might be useful for the first thing.

Also, if is really important or something really nice for me I try to simplify it and teach it (Feynman technique style).

Taking notes and mind-maps have not worked for me, I feel that once is written in notes (digital) or in xmind I tend to really forget about it.

__warlord__··on Is Ireland Still Ireland?
Galway for sure!

__warlord__··on Why Is Elon Musk Lighting Billions of Dollars on Fire?
Too much credit for Elon based on current and past evidence.
__warlord__··on Microsoft Edge is actually good
I've tried so many browsers in the past on Windows, Mac and Linux and I realized that none of them fit 100% my needs and taste. On top that, I'm still not so sure if I should give it a try on less-known browsers because you never know where they send data and what do they do with it.

However, 3 out of 4 must-have for my browser are met by edge (in order):

1. uBlock origin

2. Read aloud with proper voice

3. Translate websites that don't suck (more or less)

3. Vertical tabs (broken in full screen on Mac, but I can live with it.)

However, Firefox is a close second with the exception of point 2. The problem with Firefox is the death by thousand cuts I get, specially with the picture-in-picture feature, which works some of the time at random and some other small details.

__warlord__··on Ask HN: Why couldn’t Reddit replace Twitter?
Because Reddit has a downvote button. I don't think these type of megafon social networks (twitter) plays well with downvotes.
__warlord__··on Twitter has re-suspended ElonJet account
Would be nice if we could include how many tesla's worth of CO2 or how many trees are required to offset each flight of the #elonjet.
__warlord__··on Amid Musk's Reign at Twitter, Our Digital History Is at Risk
It really depends who that million people are... Definitely not bots... maybe a million active users? maybe people like me that doesn't use the platform that much but don't want to give elon more money nor attention? (which I'm clearly doing here)

It is a big deal if a million of active users leave.

__warlord__··on Why Twitter didn’t go down: From a real Twitter SRE
IIRC Mesos was an internal tool (at Twiiter) that got released under the Apache umbrella later on.

Then Mesosphere (a company) wanted to bring it to the enterprise market but at the time was competing with Kubernetes... and we all know who won.

__warlord__··on Elon Musk tweets photo of Twitter's architecture
But can they add the birthday date to the settings page? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y8OnoxKotPQ
__warlord__··on Ask HN: Why do some people not communicate clearly?
I notice that when people don't have a clear answer to a question they will talk more than if they know the answer. To me, it seems that some people get anxious of not knowing the answer that they prefer to say something rather than nothing.

For the train of thought, this one sometimes happens to me, specially when brain-storming ideas or when I'm thinking about second or third order consequences to the "thing" we are discussing.

Also, I think may be cultural? In some countries people prefer to give more context when talking while in others they want to go to the point as soon as possible.
