I'm a middle aged man working in the IT sector. Not a programmer, although I use AI to cosplay one sometimes.

    The US is functionally a Third World country now. There are so many places worse than us that have so many better things. Anytime you see a little thing like this that is a good id…

    Yes. I'm not saying it's how it should work. But it is how it does.

    I love that it's so easy to tell that this was built with Claude.

    It is no exaggeration to say that seeing stuff like that makes me feel almost physically sick nowadays.

    This was almost a useful write up until he used the stupid redditism “lost my faith in humanity”. Immediate stop right there and user block across the whole site. It is unfortunate…

    Ask HN: I'm hiring a SysAdmin in El Paso. Is there a place on HN to share?

    Req is on LinkedIn. I’m the HM so I see all applicants. Figured with the awful US job market I’d see if I could show it to more people.

    It's not clever when people use HN at work. It's a complete erosion of user trust and could legitimately get someone fired. You think HR wants to hear oh no it was an object lesson…

    It's super cool that this site changes the tab name to NSFW phrases when you switch off of it, and then pops up a rambling chastisement to turn of JS in your browser. Even cooler w…

    Being this much of a bootlicker for mega corps under the guise of "law abiding" is dumb. It's also and incredibly disingenuous argument. Stealing a physical thing is one thing, bit…

    So is this piracy then? Don't me me wrong. I think piracy is a moral imperative, but I'm curious how far this sits in the gray area.

    Honestly he was more right with the death part. The only thing these people really fear is death. Anything else is a fine and a fine means nothing when you don't feel it.
