perdid0··on Ask HN: What laptop should I buy in 2021?
I agree with sticking to the M1 macs. I stayed with my older 2015 MPB for now until the new MPBs come out and by then there will be better Apple Silicon support. Instead I bought a used System76 Meerkat, which is an Intel NUC essentially, and I have that small thing sitting in my desk. So, I can ssh into it, or when at home sitting in front of my desk, I can connect it to my monitor and have a Linux machine.
perdid0··on Show HN: HackerDaily – What if HN updates only once a day?
Awesome site, thanks for it! I am going to switch to it! One request: on mobile, when going back to HackerDaily from clicking a link, it loads the HackerDaily page at the top, so that I have to scroll back down to where I was. Minor inconvenience, but compare it to HN where I browse back, and HN loads right where I was. Again, thanks for this!

perdid0··on Ask HN: What is your trick to do deep work or study?
I’ve found there’s simply a time of the day it’s so much easier for me to focus. No idea why, but around 11 pm it turns on. I wake up early for work, but still, if I’m trying to do something, I can focus so easily at that time. At 2-3 am I have to force myself to go to bed cause I know I need to wake up early. No matter what I try during the day, nothing compares except the rare cases when something in prod is broken and everything is urgent. Maybe try just listening to your body instead of tricking it
perdid0··on Ask HN: What are the best unknown books you have read?
Gog by Giovanni Papini.

I read it in Spanish, and apparently it's not the easiest book to find in English, but if you do, it's definitely different.

perdid0··on Paul Ceglia, who claims to own half of Facebook, out of jail in Ecuador
If you read other sources on the story of this guy, most seem to make him seem like a scam. But since I can’t judge what is “fake news” and not, all I can say if fuck this article for making it seem like Ecuador is making a stand against the US for some kind of freedom. Being from Ecuador, I can realize that this is just a political move from Moreno. He fucked over Assange because Wikileaks started revealing the dubious dealings of his family. But now he wants to seem anti-US like his predecessor Correa did by denying the extradition of some small insignificant player line Ceglia. This article makes Moreno seem like a brave leader taking a stand against the US. He is a tool trying to make himself look big after escaping any Wikileaks accusations. Fuck him and Ceglia
perdid0··on Uber Founder Travis Kalanick Resigns as C.E.O.
I agree with the multiple apps and not knowing which ones to use where.

However, as an example, when Uber and Lyft left Austin, one of the companies created locally (RideAustin) to replace the gap does allow payments via Apple Pay. Very convenient, and they also give you the option of rounding up to donate to a charity of your choice.

I guess it's just up to all the other options to realize what people want.
