decide1000··on Trump wins presidency for second time
Let's vote for a dictator! That must solve it! Last time he was sooo successful.
decide1000··on Trump wins presidency for second time
Explain. Did he send their private army to overturn an election? Did they grab them by the pussy? I am glad I have some standards.
decide1000··on Trump wins presidency for second time
Filter bubble or not; it's a disgrace. A fallen nation. A violent dictator. Lies, racism, sexism, violence. People vote for this!
decide1000··on Ask HN: ADHD and Entrepreneurship
Yes, it will. I have ADHD.

I had a good job. Made some money. Quit my job. Started entrepreneurship. I failed for 3 years. All my money was gone, literally. I found a business partner who did the commercial stuff, the stuff which took too much energy of me. I basically gave half of the company away for free to him. Now we earn money, have clients, are happy.

Don't focus on others, focus on the process. People with ADHD have the ability to accelerate. Find your sweet spot.

decide1000··on Ask HN: Impossible to get a refund from Pieter Levels?
I followed him since he published music on YT years ago. I wasn't very good at social environments and platforms. Once I asked him a friendly-critical question and he blocked me. Still makes me feel weird lol.

decide1000··on Support for Claude Sonnet 3.5, OpenAI O1 and Gemini 1.5 Pro
I use Tabnine. It supports many models, including Claude. I find the output better compared to CoPilot. My IDE's are from Jetbrains and I work in Python and PHP mainly.
decide1000··on Ask HN: Is it wrong to use my personal laptop for work?
I've never used company laptops or phones. I simply refused. Their alternative was to fire me. And I didn't care.

I was never fired. Fedora was my daily driver.

decide1000··on Ask HN: Predictions for when GPT-5 will be released and how safe it will be?
It is kinda hard to grasp but an llm does not 'think'. It basically predicts the next letter in a sentence and it's quite efficient at it.
decide1000··on Ask HN: Do you use LinkedIn and are active on it?
It's a directory not a social media platform

Quant or Qwant? Qwant does not rely on the Bing api but has its own index.
decide1000··on Ask HN: What are problems only Windows, macOS, or Linux has?
For Windows consider this:

- Bloatware and pre-installed software

- Vulnerability to malware and viruses

- Disruptive updates and restarts

- Privacy concerns

- Performance slowdowns over time

- Ads (yes, fucking ads)

- Forces OneDrive

- Begs for OneDrive subscription

- Without email, no user account

decide1000··on Where to Move?
Taxes in the Netherlands are high but there are ways to reduce them.

As a fellow dutch I've been looking at Romania and Hungary for the same goals. However, I stayed in the Netherlands and I am happy I did.

decide1000··on Los Angeles is using an AI program to predict homelessness
Europe here. In general our taxes are higher but the infrastructure for healthcare and social safety nets are much better compared to US.

Many (not all) EU countries have more robust welfare systems. This includes healthcare, income support for those in need. Also accessible mental health and drug abuse treatment programs are common. Overall this prevents homelessness. If you are homeless there are several programs to get you back on track. This includes shelters, (temporary) housing, financial support, work, food, coaching, healthcare, priority for social housing. Families (with kids) are not common to be homeless. Often there are special programs to get them off the street asap. Still there are some differences between EU countries. In west Europe there are better systems in place.

decide1000··on The Microsoft-Dilemma – Europe as a Software Colony – Full Documentary
It is focused on Microsoft because it is about the relationship between states and the European Commission with Microsoft. They show that Microsoft does not follow the same procedures like 'normal' tenders. Also MS employees have .gov email addresses and the states are not allowed to show how much money they pay M$.

It is not biased against Microsoft. It is about Microsoft based on journalism and decent research.
