invalidSyntax··on Think of the children: How to force real ID for all internet traffic (2023)
If one existed, it will probably be like: children under 18 using the internet without parent permission, but then that doesn't do much. They are not guns which you might not ever use. Many people use it daily.
invalidSyntax··on The most unlikely school bag
I'm one person how used it for 6 years, and let me to state something that wasn't mentioned. A average family will keep using one bag untill junior-high school. So what? If you buy a bright red or pink bag as a pure 6/7 year old boy, and some how your parents had a Idea not to stop you, your doomed in the age of around 10 begging your parents to buy a new one. Very unpractical. There is not a bit of benefit at all.
invalidSyntax··on MacBook Neo Deep Dive: Benchmarks, Wafer Economics, and the 8GB Gamble
You can't change the RAM, so using it as a student, and then use it as a reliable sub pc in the future might make it last long.
invalidSyntax··on Why senior developers fail to communicate their expertise
It sounds like a perfect idea on paper until you notice that junior devs will not be able to learn about stable code. Unless AI get's good enough to write stable code, or good enough that no human has to look in the code, the next generation will face a bigger problem than now. Well it's AI that started it so let's make AI take responsibility... Oh they can't. Now what?
invalidSyntax··on My graduation cap runs Rust
I don't recall that there is a situation that you can turn on gaming RGB on your head. Someone suddenly starting to shine is as bad as keep shining. It's just either stealing everyone's concentration near you or give a jump scare to how ever was unlucky to look at your direction when you turned it on.
invalidSyntax··on Googlebook
Yeah it's a helpful and useful tool. It's the people who use it in annoying ways and marketing pushing it too much. It's natural for people to think like that. It's strange being there. Isn't exception a word that describes it well?
invalidSyntax··on Rumors of my death are slightly exaggerated
LLMs said quintessential what?
invalidSyntax··on Programming Still Sucks
Wow some story. I forgot time reading it. It's fiction, Right?...
invalidSyntax··on Singapore introduces caning for boys who bully others at school
Yeah my bad. I was the getting bullied side of students, but the current punishments are something that should be ended.
invalidSyntax··on Singapore introduces caning for boys who bully others at school
Seems like they just get what they did. To be honest, I think it should be less milder.
invalidSyntax··on Komai: a fine Matrix chat app you can get to love
Vibe coding isn't bad. It's those people who do all there coding(?) with it and post it like it's there creation is the problem.
invalidSyntax··on Pinocchio is weirder than you remembered
Sad I can't read Italian. I would like to know how the original non-translated version is like.
invalidSyntax··on Proton Meet
And another +1
invalidSyntax··on Going Full Time on Open Source
All these positive reviews really makes me wonder. Maby I should use Mise. The creator looks like he's really in it. Starting it now might be a good option.
invalidSyntax··on Batteries Not Included, or Required, for These Smart Home Sensors
Yeah I could too(not know though...). Trying to sleep, and knowing your parents are watching TV in the living room few doors away isn't the best experience.
invalidSyntax··on Google tools for customizing searches
It works some time. The problem is that you need it to actually search what you want, and it just ignores it every now and then.
invalidSyntax··on Valve releases Steam Controller CAD files under Creative Commons license
"destroyed the shareware model". You know that they only sell games, and just have the games that they made in the list too(them just being amazing and popular). It's not some easy task as recovering old systems when there are every type of games imaginable. Even if valve made a option to do that, no one will since other companies don't do anything like that.
invalidSyntax··on Magic: The Gathering took me from N2 to Japanese fluency
Side effect: All your cards look cool.
invalidSyntax··on I spent years trying to make CSS states predictable
I can agree that CSS is really unpredictable. However ,not being able to put CSS in a file isn't a small change. It makes other people to read the code harder, and mixing css and js just doesn't feel right. But just to keep my self safe, I know how people reacted to react at first. This might be normal in the future. Maybe.
invalidSyntax··on A quick look at Mythos run on Firefox: too much hype?
I agree. Even if it is a little pain to read, it's still an information worth knowing and an actual humans opinion(at least I hope). There's no reason to be skeptical if it isn't a famous news site or something.
invalidSyntax··on Show HN: Backlit Keyboard API for Python
I will love to use it. Will all keyboards with linux compatibility work?
invalidSyntax··on Running a Minecraft Server and More on a 1960s Univac Computer
"Claude Code can’t write UNIVAC assembly yet" Who knew. It's hard just to look for data on the internet(besides wikipedia).
invalidSyntax··on Changes to GitHub Copilot individual plans
Me too. Claude isn't the best option when all you do is ask "what's this error message", every 10 minutes or so.
invalidSyntax··on Edit store price tags using Flipper Zero
This is cool and all, but how am I supposed to test it? Get permission at a local store? No way they will let me do it.
invalidSyntax··on Laws of Software Engineering
I just wish if this was a requirement to get a job. Everyone needs to know this.
invalidSyntax··on Ask HN: What Are You Working On? (April 2026)
Now that’s cool. I wished I new that when I was trying remote access my computer a few month ago.
