emptyparadise··on Ask HN: Is RSS dying? Or coming back?

Seems like mailing lists are getting popular. I wish I could have those in my RSS reader.

emptyparadise··on SQLite is not a toy database (2021)

Not too familiar with the space, how do all of these stack up? Are they mostly SaaS or are there local/offline options? Do any of these have personal plans?

emptyparadise··on How and why I built Japan Dev

I think it's the same social media filters that did it. For reference, I'm using AdGuard on iOS and have the social media button filters on.

Nostalgic.

How do you make housing better after raising $22B for your startup? Wrong answers only.

emptyparadise··on SQLite is not a toy database (2021)

I wish there was some sort of an Access-like form/app builder tool for quickly building GUIs around SQLite databases. That's the one thing I miss. I'd love to reach for SQLite instead of Excel or something.

Apple doesn't need you to defend them either.

>random new product ideas that come from a chat with a coworker, or improvements

I've had this happen plenty of times over text.

I suspect the "cross pollination" might get balanced out by the ability to interact with anyone at the company, rather than just those on your floor or building.

emptyparadise··on Apple tells employees to work at the office three times per week starting Sept

I thrive during remote work and don't like spontaneous cooler conversations.

Does this make me unemployable?

emptyparadise··on Apple tells employees to work at the office three times per week starting Sept

My labor, my rules. How about we compromise?

emptyparadise··on Apple tells employees to work at the office three times per week starting Sept

Speaking of Pixar, isn't there a whole story of one of their movies getting saved because of somebody working from home and having a backup of the data?

We're the IRC generation, just ping me with a silly image if you want a casual chat.

Very nice, looks like these open phones are moving forward. Would love to have a new Nokia N900.

emptyparadise··on Ask HN: Can I see your scripts?

Temporal Nix

emptyparadise··on Ask HN: How do you justify your existence?

I'm just vibing.

emptyparadise··on Modern Malaise

What if the one steering didn't need to be a person? What if it was an idea or an ideology? Are we better off in a world devoid of purpose? Or did we never truly have purpose? Did our past generations delude themselves into thinking that they did? Or did we delude ourselves into thinking that our past generations did have purpose?

That just makes us the greatest fools of all.

It's morally right to pirate Disney properties.

emptyparadise··on Ask HN: How do you keep marching?

I don't. I no longer have some grand vision because I no longer have faith in the future.

But I try to have fun while I'm still here. Not for profit, just for me.

Seeing the old Google bleed through is depressing sometimes.

emptyparadise··on Lumina Desk – digital desk for health and productivity

Those widgets look great. Since I saw something about a developer invite on the website, I wonder if a desktop dashboard app could happen?

Also I couldn't quite tell if the desk's display can be touched or not, though I imagine it would make no sense to make it a touch screen.

emptyparadise··on Most Americans support using the popular vote to decide U.S. presidents, data

If California and Idaho don't want to listen to each other, why even remain in the same country?

>Is that someone the cool bear making an appearance on my blog? We’ll never know… and also I’d have to ask fasterthanlime to ask them for permission and didn’t plan this well enough.

Cool bear has breached containment.

I do have to admit I love the recent-ish trend of including dialogues in blog posts. Plato would be proud.
