hello2023··on Tell HN: Firefox Is an awesome browser right now
I've been using firefox for years... Firefox is cool. Slack huddle in my Firefox never works, I don't know why. But that's cool. If someone in the team needs a "huddle" I can give a reason and ask them to describe their problem instead. That works 99% and saves me a lot of time.

I love firefox.

hello2023··on Why WhatsApp Only Needs 50 Engineers for Its 900M Users (2015)
whatsapp requires to access to contacts on the phopne. otherwise it just shows a bunch of phone numbers and I never get who I'm talking to in the groups. And it shares my phone number to everyone.

Such a feature hasn't been changed and now I know why

hello2023··on Slack is the opposite of organizational memory (2018)
In my team when someone asks me to look at some issues, my very first question is always where they see the alert. Because there are a huge number of "alert" channels. And I am very "happy" spending most of my days doing nothing much than searching and looking up things lolz
hello2023··on The Art of LaTeX: Common mistakes and advice for typesetting proofs
In the spacing section, the author's suggestion to use absolute spacing operator (e.g \;) is actually not recommended. a better way is to make `dx` a math operator (`d` is an operator isn't it?).

Some other suggestion is not actually recommended in the official documentation of amsmath as I recall.

Hope this helps.
