mkoryak··on Biden Says U.S. Is Considering Dropping Its Case Against Assange
> Snowden is a coward

Really? I don't know many cowards that do such risky things.

Angie's list has also gone downhill.
mkoryak··on Ask HN: Is AngelList Legit?
Doh!
mkoryak··on App scans your pile of Lego and uses ML to suggest projects
Last time I tried it, it was ios only and the projects it suggested were pretty simple. I found that just building something was more enjoyable every time.

It's a neat idea though

mkoryak··on What I wish I knew about ESPP and RSUs sooner
The "what" part
mkoryak··on Two scammers, a web of betrayal, and Europe's fraud of the century
Like SBF?
mkoryak··on Show HN: Free comments section for personal sites
No apologies needed, it's free right?

Anyway, I would have expected to not see the marketing page when I clicked the "post" link. I already care about learning how to post / add this to my site, you don't need to sell me anything more right now. I would have liked to learn more about how posting would work since I already learned how to add the iframe and that was easy.

mkoryak··on Show HN: Free comments section for personal sites
Same boat here. I clicked "Comment with a blog post!" Which took me to a marketing type page where the CTA seems to be to "take my money, JK lol". I skimmed that page looking for a way to comment, then clicked the CTA which brought me to another page containing the show hn page as a post.

Very confusing. I gave up trying to figure out how to comment, or sign up

mkoryak··on Revealed: The names linked to ClothOff, the deepfake pornography app
When we had kids, my partner and I decided that we would never upload their pictures to any social media sites, or any other semi-public sites.

It was a good idea, and now it's becoming an even better idea.

mkoryak··on Show HN: Reverse-Engineering a Switch Lite with 1,917 wires
Do you have a full time job? Do you have young kids?

I am guessing one of these is a "no", probably the later.

If I am wrong, please tell me the secret

mkoryak··on GenAI and erroneous medical references
Your site must be running an lmm because scrolling is laggy.

You might want to profile it and see why a pixel 8 has trouble smoothly scrolling down the page.

mkoryak··on Ask HN: Why do some the best devs create some of the worst UX/UI?
This is like asking why UX sucks at code. It's a different job.
mkoryak··on jQuery v4.0 Beta
I was really really joking
mkoryak··on jQuery v4.0 Beta
Why worry when you can easily load both versions with jQuery.noConflict() !!!

Or you can just load one on top of the other. It will be ok

mkoryak··on Crime rings trafficking sand
That's a great startup idea!

I'll bring the glue, you bring the sand and we can glue the grains into more useful shapes.

mkoryak··on I looked through attacks in my access logs
Sometimes I think it might be fun to setup an express server that correctly responds to one of these attacks just so I can waste someones time.

But doing that would also waste my time.

mkoryak··on Heat exchanger masks for cold weather cycling (2019)
I wasn't trying to produce a viral video. I was mostly just pissed off that he insisted that the bike lanes weren't on the inside of THAT road, which they are.

FWIW, he got doxxed after it went viral. He turned out to be a judge from south Boston.

mkoryak··on Heat exchanger masks for cold weather cycling (2019)
I have the silent version: a fake pigeon attached to my helmet. Most of my interactions with cars and people are great because of it.

Ive only had a handful of problems - like the one I linked in the video above.

mkoryak··on Heat exchanger masks for cold weather cycling (2019)
I messed around with connecting my external bike light battery pack to hand warming elements that I wrapped around my handlebars. It kinda worked a little bit.
mkoryak··on Heat exchanger masks for cold weather cycling (2019)
I used to commute on bike into Boston year round from 12 miles away for a few years.

Getting dressed in the winter was always an art and I often thought about making some kind of a clothes chooser website that took into account the temperature and a bunch of other factors.

I wish I had known of these masks. Keeping your glasses not fogged up was always a challenge.

Winter biking in general is no joke around here because of the weather and the drivers. I started to wear a camera after I got hit by a car... see: https://youtu.be/2hJ_hzjlQsw?si=28yM2wmbCiQuOlJ7

mkoryak··on HP's CEO spells it out: You're a 'bad investment' if you don't buy HP supplies
Not for me, I never wrote any of those and I would like to write at least one more here.
mkoryak··on Canadian man stuck in triangle of e-commerce fraud
Even better, live somewhere where you're the police
mkoryak··on The Everything NPM Package
I don't think he was trying to investigate anything. He was just trolling, but he didn't intend to troll _that hard_.
mkoryak··on Alaska Airlines 737 Max makes emergency landing due to depressurization

mkoryak··on Royal Navy forced to recruit for tob job on social media
Tob -> Top
mkoryak··on Why Unix's lseek() has that name instead of seek()
I wish the article did more to explain why "the naming for fstat/lstat not consistent with fseek/lseek".

I understand it's not written for people like me, but here I am reading it

mkoryak··on What went wrong with Horizon: learning from the Post Office Trial
Mirror?
mkoryak··on Do It Yourself Blind Repair
I know they are trying to make money, but it would be nice if they could link some 3d printer models for things like handles.
mkoryak··on Hospitals ask courts to force cloud storage firm to return stolen data
Don't worry, the court is being asked to "issue an order requiring the ransomware group to destroy all the copies they made."
