I've been trying to put together a study group all week! Is it possible to add a new course to the library? I'd like to make a group for CSS for JavaScript Developers by Josh W Com…

I like to take this a step further and try to have all my most important tooling be written in my projects major languages. It's not a must have, but having a build system for a go…

It's amazing how many people in this thread are seriously suggesting that these a11y features are not important. Do HN readers not understand that someday they will grow old, and t…

Assuming Jim Henson is the legal creator, it will enter the public domain in 2085.

My view is that all of those messaging platforms blocking alternative clients are equally problematic. I've arrived at this position because I'm not able to use any of those platfo…

I'm currently running KDE Neon on a MBP 2012, and I've installed linux on a few apple devices from that era. The nvidia drivers can be a struggle, and wifi drivers have to be confi…

The hardware is still working. I think it's reasonable that the software should continue to work until the hardware is physically incapable of booting. An entire industry deciding …

all of the things this product wants to solved would be better served by removing cars from our cities. Like everything can be in walking distance, when they're built within walkin…

commenting is valid, it would be cool to see that in a feed reader. But ActivityPub can do that, I believe Write.as has comments. but video ads? none for me thanks.
