    Yes, it was definitely the "data pillaging" that was degrading service, and not the fact that Twitter is now hosted on a Mac Mini under somebody's desk...

    I don't know about drugs. Ego, messiah complex, and delusions of invincibility? Sure. Putin got where he was through reality-TV-level ostentatious displays of strength. Prigozhin l…

    Put it this way: would you buy stock in a gas station where the owner was getting the gas for free from his friends, and now his friends hate him and aren't giving him free gas any…

    What exactly were you expecting, a thesis project or documentary or something? As far as I can tell, petykowski just wanted to recreate the typefaces used on the Underground's digi…

    Ask HN: Does anyone remember this 90s-era library catalogue search tool?

    There's a library catalog search tool I've been trying and trying to locate for some time now. I don't know what it's called, but here's what I remember: - It was used at my local …
