Keep in mind that a lot of issues with search are oblivious to the general public. I don’t think I have ever heard a complaint, outside of tech circles.

I get what you are saying, but let’s cut it out with the ethical, free speech and other aspects of the Twitter dilemma. Leaving or staying is the same virtue signaling that most people were fighting against during the last few years.

PG likes to do that as much as any other person. I recall a random tweet telling something like “all smart people I know are moving their wealth from bitcoin to ethereum”. This is crying for attention, unfit for such an accomplished person and this great website.

If you want to go with something like that you could remove physical keys and make it a “tablet” keyboard with endless possibilities. That might be interesting

How is this interesting news?

This. Let’s not jump to the conclusion that making this point today is a silly argument or even an evil deed.

For someone who writes mostly in GC languages this was a great read and can recommend.

Even with switching to <your_safe_language> let’s not loose awareness of what is possible to strengthen current approaches.

Your comment reminded me of a beautiful post by Peter Norvig [0].

He covers learning programming and books like the one you mentioned.

For anyone interested in the topic of Pegasus and NSO, there is a great New Yorker piece about them from yesterday.

Me too! I was surprised at the title, fully expecting Norvig to channel Michael Malice and talk about splitting the US.

I'v really had it with Postman. I don't get the priorities. Slow and sometimes confusing and auto-saving the configuration is still impossible(!) and I just keep loosing % of work done every single day. [0]

Glad to see lots of comment with alternatives here.

By the title alone, I first thought it was about something like podcast addiction - listening to someone basically every waking hour. I feel like nobody (me included) can suffer silence anymore and it got even worse with remote work, when you are alone and can listen the whole time.

I recommend this post when thinking about fat models/service layers

Optimum Tech is the place to go when evaluating any PC part or peripheral. The work put into the videos is simply unmatched, with its scientific precision, in the space and it doesn’t go overboard in the recommendations. It keeps in mind everyday things like value for money, availability and practicality.

Every time I come across a piece of writing by the author I wish to some day achieve such joy and love of programming.

Maybe it’s time to use more Lisps than Scripts.

If anybody starting out is reading this, I second the Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programms recommendation. Wish I started with that as well, but it has been truly great even later into a programming career.

Sports team always sounds brutal and unforgiving to me.

Having worked in a all-love-and-kindness-and-forgiveness German corporation and now in a young company with a lot of ambition, but definitely a sports team vibe I’d admit the latter yields more results, but they definitely come with a lot more stress in your life.

Depends on what you are up for I guess.

Dustin Moskovitz presented that point in the invaluable How to start a startup series - https://youtu.be/CBYhVcO4WgI

A good resource when deciding on your future ambitions

First mock that showed up shortly after Hey’s introduction was funny, I have to admit that even as a user. Not sure if it did fit on HN but whatever. But this is not only low effort, but what’s there to discuss? Is it really that interesting?

I honestly don't. Working from home increased my output very much and I've embraced this change to just do more. I work longer hours and do more side projects/freelancing.

I worry about long term effects (especially health) and efficiency of this approach, but for now only side effect is less time for other activities. I'm happy with this tradeoff for now.

If one wants to do web dev on vim I strongly recommend neovim setup with coc.nvim. I know some people strongly disagree with transforming vim into and IDE, but this is a really productive setup for creating code (works like a charm for my current React project)

Personally I’ll sometimes use VSCode to browse big files or explore the codebase, but when it comes to editing them neovim with coc, fzf and a language pack is all you need.

I see a lot of pro-Svelte comments/entries on HN. It seems to be endorsed stronger than the mainstream, big libraries right now

Am I the only one who would feel wrong using this? WSJ deserves our money looking at quality of the articles.

Aren’t single word or short messages like “Hi”, “Sure” simple ACKs in our human protocol? I’ve observed (at work) that people feel more comfortable and respected when I use these words while writing.

I would also recommend Spectacle if you like simplicity and believe in open source.
