leke··on Ask HN: Who are your favorite tech youtubers
ThePrimeTime is an entertaining and interesting coder.
leke··on You are what you read, even if you don't always remember it
> at one point in your life it was processed by your brain

I'm pretty sure my ADD brain fails to do that on a regular basis.

leke··on I love programming but I hate the programming industry
This. I've been very happily working in a small company and we recently got a new CTO. In a couple of days we will find out which 6 of us are being terminated. Corporate fat trimmings and all that.
leke··on 'Lavender': The AI machine directing Israel's bombing in Gaza
Kind of speculation at this point, but I wonder if Lavendar was involved in the recent killing of the World Central Kitchen Aid workers.
leke··on Show HN: Truncate, a word-based strategy game
I incorrectly guessed this was a JS coded game.
leke··on Show HN: Truncate, a word-based strategy game
Amazing game. I love games that require strategy, but it's hard to find ones I like that are based on language. Does this support a non-english vocabulary?

leke··on Rye: Homoiconic dynamic programming language with some new ideas
I played around with Rebol many years ago and enjoyed it. This too looks like fun.

Someone to love.

Something to hope for.

leke··on EPA bans asbestos, a deadly carcinogen still in use decades after partial ban
There isn't?
leke··on Pornhub Blocked in Texas
Maybe internet intercourse
leke··on Show HN: Memozora – A flashcard maker for language learners
The app looks great. Dark mode would be nice though.

Tab to guess correct and incorrect would also be nice so you don't have to take the hands off the keyboard.

I really liked the multiple choice system Memrise used to have. This behaves too much like Anki. I actually don't like Anki because of how it works, and this app is more or less the same(?) However, there are plenty of people who love anki, so I think you will do well.

I would be more interested in the app if there was multiple choice.

leke··on Show HN: AI dub tool I made to watch foreign language videos with my 7-year-old
I'm looking for a tool that will take a foreign language and automatically generate subtitles in my language. Anyone know of such a tool?

Space cakes are where I'm from.
leke··on Vancouver EV owner shares cautionary tale after car deemed 'total loss'
Oh, I didn't realise it was that bad. The last car I owned was in 2001 and was from the early 90s. I'm like, I can wind down the window myself, thank you.

BTW, it was this https://s1.cdn.autoevolution.com/images/gallery/NISSANMicra3...

I used to pretend it was like a shitty Delorian.

leke··on Welcome to the Chata Programming Language
Wait, noise cancelling works by wireless beaming its signal? What like into your head!?
leke··on Vancouver EV owner shares cautionary tale after car deemed 'total loss'
This is what is keeping me away from EVs currently. Hopefully this will be addressed in the future and battery prices come down in price and can be changed by the owner.
leke··on Vancouver EV owner shares cautionary tale after car deemed 'total loss'
Hyundai damage control has entered the chat.

> She added that a repair or replacement quote that large is rare, but each case is unique.

We got caught over-charging.

> In this case, McCarty said the Hyundai Canada team should have had the opportunity to assess the situation prior to the suggested replacement cost being shared with ICBC.

If we had known that this would be so damaging to our reputation, we wouldn't have over-quoted the insurance company.

> In the past week, we have communicated to our entire dealer network that all battery replacement situations need to be reviewed by Hyundai Auto Canada.

Don't panic and avoid us because of the above. We will change our ways, honest.

leke··on Nobody knows what's happening online anymore
I like how the title of the article is "Nobody Knows What’s Happening Online Anymore" which is behind a paywall.
