I made a simple, customizable bookmarklet for removing HN submissions based on their title contents. I have it configured to remove AI-related posts at the moment but anybody with …

I'm also interested in hiding AI posts. Is anybody doing this with success that can share what they use?

Thanks for the tip. I've enrolled in an A1 class with Goethe Institute starting in April. In your opinion, how difficult would it be to rent or potentially own a home on a single e…

Could you expand a little? Are you referring to the workaholism some Americans have? Personally, I've always sought out companies that value a healthy work/life balance and am reli…

I currently reside in the US and am looking to move to Europe (most likely Germany) some time in the next three years. Has anybody made this journey and have some insights to share…

I've added my contact email to my profile, thank you.
