    The other day they randomly changed the “Like” button for an “Add to Playlist” one. Though they did communicate that change pretty clearly (there was a popup notifying the user abo…

    I find the Compose feature to be quite useful, so I used to have Compose key on Caps Lock on Linux. After I’ve switched back to Windows, I found WinCompose to be a pretty decent eq…

    Nice! There’s a similar project by Anthony Fu: https://icones.js.org I wonder if both share the same superset of icons, relying on the same Iconify framework?

    Looks like OW2 will run directly through Steam, without Battle.net required: https://twitter.com/Qwik/status/1681720303389667328

    I feel like the HN title here is misleading. You can’t delete your Threads profile, you can only delete your Instagram account and your Threads sub-account will follow. Also this i…

    Not neccessarily. You do need to download the Threads app and make an account (or rather a sub-account, since it’s tied to your Instagram account).

    You missed the point. Nobody’s saying chip is the culprit—“M1” in this context refers to the Macbook series powered by the eponymous chip. Which means those Macbooks are only a few…

    No. I only ever use it as a last resort when I need some non-sensitive text double-checked. And by “use” I mean that it’s installed as a keyboard app on my smartphone (where I beli…

    I really like how people striving for freedom in software are always ready—and eager—to take away the freedoms of companies they don’t like. “I want to be able to do whatever I wis…

    I don’t know if it’s still the case, but Lazarus used to be a part of the high school IT course in Ukraine. Might be that they’ve already ditched Pascal for Python.

    I tried to sign up, but the confirmation email got automarked as spam by Gmail and didn’t contain any links.

    I remember stumbling upon a website which did this, but instead of just taking 100 years it prompted the user to select his country and gender. The algorithm then used data about t…
