bool3max··on Ask HN: How do you deal with neck and back pain?
Deadlifts and squats.
bool3max··on Go 1.19 Released
How is that a flamewar comment? It's just an observation.
bool3max··on Booting Linux in five seconds (2008)
Correct me if I'm wrong but nowadays you can completely skip the "bootloader" step by using EFISTUB, i.e. having the UEFI firmware load the kernel as an UEFI executable.
bool3max··on Huanan Seafood Market in Wuhan was early epicenter of the Covid-19 pandemic
And ripping people off isn't seen as clever in the rest of the world? Come on.
bool3max··on Poll: What do you call the small USB device that you plug in to transfer files?
Right, thanks for the correction.
bool3max··on Poll: What do you call the small USB device that you plug in to transfer files?
Your phone is also a "USB mass storage device" when you plug it into your computer.
bool3max··on Wealth as a predictor of whether an person pursues a creative profession (2019)
I'm not sure that there can be an "oversupply" of any form of art.
bool3max··on Ask HN: Has YouTube peaked?
These questions pop up very often on HN and other circles - yet the answer is always the same. The algorithm(s) serve you content that makes money. If you manage to look past that, you'll still find plenty of honest, straight to the point material. Thing is - it's getting progressively harder year by year.

For example, YouTube recently crippled their search function severely - it displays batches of results completely irrelevant to your specific search term in-between actual results. Absolutely fucking retarded. And that's just one example.

bool3max··on Mpv – A free, open source, and cross-platform media player
These are nowhere near "blatant". Maybe you're the homophobic one?

Calling the Russia-Ukraine conflict an "European war" is blowing it entirely out of proportion.

We're fucked.
bool3max··on Ask HN: How did you find your current job?
Damn.
bool3max··on Worm: A dynamic, tag-based window manager written in Nim
I have never used Awesome but have been on Sway for the past ~3 years. What features are you missing?
bool3max··on [dead]
As it should.
bool3max··on Tesla’s ‘phantom braking’ problem is getting worse
Why or how people deem "phantom braking" to be even remotely acceptable is completely beyond me. You are putting your life in the hands of a multi-ton steel box with a mind of (seemingly) its own and it "phantom braking" at highway speeds does not alarm you? In a normal world all of those cars would be immediately recalled.
bool3max··on Async Rust doesn't have to be hard
How do you manage to avoid generics while writing Rust?
bool3max··on All About Libpas, Phil's Super Fast Malloc
People call it Godbolt because you access it via godbolt.org,
bool3max··on What would a recession mean for developers?
The no-code tools have to be maintained by someone.
bool3max··on Ask HN: Where does your mind wander to?
Very interesting that you consider uttering a racial slur as one of the worst scenarios that could occur to you while standing in line at a coffee shop.
bool3max··on Tell HN: Discord Ignores Right to Erasure
Where did he mention LGBTQ in his comment?
bool3max··on Nanobots Can Swim Around a Wound and Kill Bacteria
Something tells me you'd prefer the latter..
bool3max··on Twitter Deal Temporarily on Hold
What did he quote? He only stated facts.
bool3max··on Zsh-autoquoter makes shell quoting slightly less annoying
String escaping in fish is phenomenal. Painless. You don't have to think about it at all. A single variable expansion results in exactly a single command line argument. As it should. As is logical.
bool3max··on Zsh-autoquoter makes shell quoting slightly less annoying
It is part of the reason why I use fish whenever possible.
bool3max··on Public health agency tracked Canadians' movements via phone data during pandemic
You cannot possibly believe that this story not catching on during the height of the pandemic is a product of "randomness".
bool3max··on Cdecl: C Gibberish ↔ English
That seems perfectly readable to me, sans the part in the parentheses.
bool3max··on 1x Programming
> ... , we don’t need novel software most of the time. We need better boring software. More general, less buggy, faster.

Doesn't producing that kind of software involve novel, interesting ideas in the first place?

bool3max··on Neovim 0.7 Released
Another poor default option choice in Vim compared to NeoVim.
