I would say, if you can afford it, and have some reasonable reason to continue with masters, stay at uni. As far as I know, Amazon is not that good of an employer. If you would man…

I thought Totyota is still one of the EV leaders. Alongside Kia and Hyundai?

I am from former ost-block (weird it still has weight even 35+ years later) and my grandpa was Palestinian. The overal feeling is, that this was always the case. Sometimes we win s…

I think there will be a sort of ~meeting in the middle. I.e. when friend was furnishing his appt. he chose specifically the sort of furniture that will make it easier for his robot…

On one hand, you are clearly exaggerating. On the other hand, the actual conversations I hear my friends having about business-trips to US are more stressed than conversation my da…

From what I have seen successful ~vibe-coders in my cirle are really bullish on type-safety and testing. Up to a point I have seen a guy porting his favourite property-based testin…

I have been wondering if this is one of those things you could solve with a ~case. Like - clicks keyboard might be overdoing it, but getting a scroll-wheel or a trackball under my …

First, mint-mobile is specific in some way? That part shouldn't be a problem. Second, you mostly get to choose one. Small enough? Yeah, Unihertz Jelly Star is tiny. Maybe you try o…

I think I mostly liked those type-systems that lean towards dependent, but not go all the way. Purescript might be favourite? Even by default you get more power than i.e. vanilla H…

Ok, I didn't expect such a high praise for rust. I am not joking.

Find some thing you enjoy creating digitally and just do that and publish. Straight ort is probably toughest to sell, but ... if you enjoy it, one day there might be enough fans to…

Recently I have been writing more stings in jsonnet. If I were with more haskell-friendly team, might even try dhall. In general, I feel like writing the yaml in something else tha…

Why just simple? T.b.h. if I were to write a manifest generator, I would still probably commit the thing into a repo and let argo do the rest. Maybe even fiddled around to make the…

Fedora is good. Ubuntu is still good. Weirdly - if he has steam-deck and a desktop setup, fiddling around with steam-os in desktop mode can be a good enough entry-point.

I would actually look at EU countries? Maybe if you feel like your country of origin is too much of a backwater, sure, look further, but as long as you are within EU, university co…

Dancing. Roughly once a month I go to some small festival nearby, mostly live music - either oldschool swing, or blues and dance my hear out. These are not too big, like between 20…

Ask your friends about discords they are in. That is where everybody I know is sort of moving towards.

Minecraft seems too big. But this looks like a thing that you could give few hours of tetris and it will spit out a working scheme for tetris.

I heard it as a saying in game-development. "When you have the game 90% completed, remember that now you will have to complete the second 90% to actually ship."

There is some level of organization you have to achieve to be at least somewhat successful. I think these sort of more complex systems are there to help you if your problem is bein…

If a website doesn't have a status page, and you don't have a better groupchat to ask, asking on HN seems fine :)

I have strong feeling that in the past 50 or so years, we often have traded resiliency for efficiency. I think we might have gone too far. That doesn't mean that being deliberately…

Hm, it really depends. What is your situation? Like, my early 30's were about trying to keep job while being in a failing marriage with a small kid. I would give somebody in my sit…

First, figure out things that can help you manage. Past 2 years I am on Concerta prescription and it made a big difference. Previously, high quality green tea til lunch, exercise i…

I did. But if several nation-states would pledge larger grants, I would have some hope that i.e. the trucks with the building materials would get through border-crossings, e.t.c. I…
