This is really good, thanks

Can confirm, my buddy who is someone I respect immensely, is an embedded programmer. He will talk about OS events, or any low level concept and it makes me feel like I don’t know a…

You hit it on the money, third places won’t matter if it’s not accessible. We need to promote density, walkability and time. In America there is an idea that anyone who wants more …

This is something that I care deeply about and have put a lot of thought into. I can only speak to what I think needs to be done in America. Public transportation. Removing or heav…

I've been gaming on Linux (CachyOS) for roughly a year now as well, and I love it. Better performance, faster loading, but I do admit there are drawbacks. I'm a developer, so I'm t…

I think those prediction markets need to have the same regulations as casinos at this point.

Linus Torvald was in a recent Linus Tech Tips video and I think his take was good. Why can't it be both a bubble and revolutionary? I use it, I'm cautious with it, but it is useful…

I've been wanting to learn more embedded type projects, and I've been snacking too often so I've been building a box that will only open on the weekends. I got all the components, …

Hey HN. I'm a software developer of 4 years and have pretty good technical skills but where I struggle is medium to large projects where structure, organization and consistency is …

It's projects like this that make me feel awe. I'm a full stack developer, but I feel like I don't have the low level knowledge to know all the work that goes into a project like a…

I did some surface-level research, but I couldn’t find any country that explicitly or publicly requested this from Google. While I saw countries discussing the issue, none of them …

I wish I could know if the people at OpenAI, Meta, Microsoft and other leading AI companies truly believe this. Personally, I have not seen anything that points to AI taking Jobs. …

If that's the case, then why is that, why would OpenAI not want to release their best models when the AI race is still close? I would assume it's due to energy constraints, and if …

I'm a full-stack developer, .NET and React are my specialty. I've gotten really interested in lower level projects currently, especially the Linux development and embedded design. …

The comments here kinda surprise me. We should encourage people to talk to their community, their fellow citizen, neighbor, that's what the human experience is.

I have a different opinion than most of my friends on this topic. They claim that it's just like the calculator, everyone said that if we offset our math work on a calculator it wi…

Nature takes the path of least resistance. In my experience, especially people. Make it easy people will use it, make it difficult and they won't. It's the reason apple became appl…

I was overweight my entire life up to when I was 21. In less than 2 years I went from 300lb to 198lb (136kg to 89kg). I'm 6'4 so 198 personally was not maintainable, but I was work…

This was one of the few things I was hoping for AI to help with. Cobol is so clunky, and no one wants to work with it and to my Surprise, Cobol jobs don't pay as much as people thi…

It's not just about avoiding the US out of anger; it's more about preventing US companies from having too much control over their citizens and daily lives. By focusing on open-sour…

I understand this isn't an official EU project, but with the ongoing trade war and Europe's desire to distance itself from US big tech, I'm excited to see what they develop. Americ…

This is a cool idea, are you thinking of self-hosting this or on their servers? Have they mentioned anything about any guidelines for what their blob storage can be used for? I kno…
