I much prefer Chuck Peddle's telling of the story of surrounding MOS's acquisition by Commodore and the history of the 6502 at VCF East: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PBnmJhEOdC8…

The Daily Show, during all those classic Jon Stewart years. And sure enough, it's gone. My first try, the classic interview between Jon and Joe Biden in 2015, where Biden admits he…

I recently started using a Mac at work and Gnome aping MacOS is the only thing that makes sense. The applications selector, the settings drop-downs... spatial Nautilus... it didn't…

I'm constantly ill at-ease with how LLMs have been trained on, well, just about everyone's data, and spit out really creative responses that were wholly inspired by someone else's …

It's client-side, and works very well for email. It used to be that email notifications through Thunderbird waited until your next email refresh interval, but I noticed they are co…

Your first claim I think is better stated that older CDs cut in their time from original sources sound better than similar music with modern processes. For pop, especially. I seek …

As long as a computer decides where your time and energy is going as conduit for communication, it has become a moral arbiter. Facebook is harmful. Computers can't do this; they do…

This is one of those moments to remind everyone that computers and computer algorithms do not, and can not, replace human empathy.

I would think, more importantly, how many more people were charged for felony embezzlement for failing to return a video rental in Norman, Oklahoma, 20 years ago without their awar…

My first comment on HN; I have strong feelings on this topic. I was specifically taught as a child that zero is neither even nor odd, because zero has no value. I don't think it wa…
