thx··on Tell HN: Bob Cringely has died
thanks for posting <3 this is great
thx··on Ask HN: Oh, What Places to Go (Seriously Tho)
I know the author of the Martian published that story first on his website, but I don’t really know the layout / or what “first publication rights” be or entail. I have to do my research - and yes, I never have used AI writing any of them so I’m kinda scrambling now to find a way to do this before it can. thank you
thx··on Ask HN: Oh, What Places to Go (Seriously Tho)
lol — it’s true tho. Many great websites, but on HN, you never know what you’re going to find
thx··on Ask HN: Oh, What Places to Go (Seriously Tho)
:D Thanks so much / really appreciate it. I’ve video’d like 30 short stories on and off but usually just testing out different social medias and I don’t really know the “PMF” for someone doing 5-10 minute short stories.

Think I will definitely start with substack. Was thinking maybe Patreon but I’m not huge on social medias in general so seeking to find where to go — super appreciate it <333

thx··on Jane Street's Figgie card game
what do you think he got wrong (in general or particularly) ??

not saying it was my favorite book but i did enjoy michael lewis’ description of the card game & such

thx··on Jane Street's Figgie card game
just curious , if anyone knows —

is this the same game played by FTX sam in that Michael Lewis crypto biopic ??

thx··on Ask HN: What's your top-tier reading with well-written humor?
I just started posting a “humor” short story series i’m doing almost daily on tiktok and soon substack —

https://www.tiktok.com/@blondynwrites

It’s titled — Big City, Short Story

Not saying it’s top-tier by any means but the writing style is designed to be funny, while being satire, in a ‘Pop Art’ / Almost Dr. Seussian sense.

thx··on Ask HN: When Social Network?
Don’t know anything about YC’s business model or the direction they want to grow.

But the community is very thoughtful & already here. I think a HN SM App, whether part of their present business plan or not would have some mass appeal.

Just probably isn’t something they necessarily want to do

thx··on Farewell to the car CD player, source of weirdly deep musical fandoms
i <33 mi CDs , especially in z car
thx··on Just use fucking paper, man
I use Apple Notes but it drives me sooo crazy that you can’t left/right swipe between Notes

thx··on Ask HN: Tips to get started on my own server

thx··on Flaubert versus the World
thanks soo much :D

thx··on Flaubert versus the World
is there a great collection of his letters in a book you’d recommend?

i love Jack Kerouac’s “Windblown World” (an awesome collection of his journals / letters / notes on writing) & would highly recommend if you’re a fan

haven’t really explored Flaubert & am curious about where’d be a good place to start

thx··on Someone bought 26.9 BTC on Binance and sent it to Satoshi's dead wallet
i have no idea if they understand public key cryptography but think they probably could hire someone who does

think a general (perhaps mythos) belief is that hal finney is satoshi so

in essence, there are definitely blockchain detectives

thx··on Someone bought 26.9 BTC on Binance and sent it to Satoshi's dead wallet
I read on twitter a theory about this having to do with a Satoshi doxxing event [1]

thx··on Ask HN: iPhone Low Power Mode, or No?
ty
thx··on Ask HN: iPhone Low Power Mode, or No?
agreed / the phone doesn’t work as magnificent in low power mode

think the main takeaway i get out of reading all of these as of rn is keep phone cool & it will be more healthy

:33

thx··on Ask HN: iPhone Low Power Mode, or No?
but ty for all aspect of protips
thx··on Ask HN: iPhone Low Power Mode, or No?
def recognized the UX on low power (even / especially swiping) is way less smooth (iPhone 13 pro max

not worried about UX / just watching that “battery health” slowly trickling away & not happy

thx··on Ask HN: iPhone Low Power Mode, or No?
:33

feel like “keep the battery cool” is the theme

thx··on Ask HN: iPhone Low Power Mode, or No?
almost always do low power mode but also didn’t know if high power mode “turns the iPhone fan on” or helps keep the rest of the system cool (my iPhone rn is actually my fav tech piece ever so def want!it to live)

thank u for getting back / am curious about the shortcut automation :33

thx··on Ask HN: iPhone Low Power Mode, or No?
great last sentence / makes sense

not super techy (i wish) but this been my fav website for a while

sounds like keeping battery cool is best
