I'm convinced that every single business out there eventually gets run from an Excel spreadsheet. At the end of the day, they're just rolling up rollups all the way to the top, whe…

Exactly. The web of yesteryear where you could make a living one-manning a website is practically gone. If you told me 20 years ago that I'd pine for the days of blogs, I'd have la…

sun imploded for a lot of reasons, android games wasn't a huge factor. their ridiculously expensive hardware and consultants? much bigger.

even a capacitor.

Awww... so sad to see this. I know phones have basically eaten everybody's lunch except serious photographers. It's the march of progress, but their mirrorless cameras were solid. …

it's not reimplementing it from scratch. it's developing a runtime engine that can read the original diablo 2 files . It says right in the README with big letters. You can't use th…

I've been taking notes in Markdown for years. Your search and linking functionality to make it a great hybrid nodes-wiki system is fantastic. I'm gonna give this one the 'ol colleg…

I'm curious about the dramatically increased mortality rate with diabetes. Given America's situation, especially with insulin prices at a perverse high, that could be catastrophic.…

It's the "without escape" part that's important. It's like the song "Common People" (by Pulp, made famous by Mr Shatner). Nobody likes a tourist. As long as you can call your dad (…

Duh. Nearly everything they've predicted has come to pass, including this. This is just confirmation of a hypothesis.

can't alternate browser makers who base on chromium simply disable that portion? like, I expect identifying users was a key business concern in moving Edge to Chromium. Is there so…

well, when you lack all trust in the current government to do anything that doesn't directly benefit them, that's how.

Oh yes, I'm totally going to grow out of this climate crisis... my, how hard are your pearls being clutched right now?

Uhhhh... Octobox clearly ripped off Google's Gmail. Flat design with left-side tabs is not a UI innovation.

they'd be surrounded by constant quackery otherwise. ideas are a dime a dozen. clinical test plans and execution are not.

they hit that sweet spot of folks who like to play games but aren't into the graphics as much as spec-heads. you can argue all you want about frame rates and resolutions and shader…

Prior to Reggie, NOA was just a distribution company. They handled orders and collected their middle-man fees. A vanishingly small percentage worked on actual games. NOA started ta…

Well no shit. It's the last remaining major media that isn't actively trying to cover up Trump crimes, or sweep Bernie under the rug (even though they do that a little bit). The re…

which just makes me hate southwest even more.

It's a feature until apple makes a moral call on software. they banned all vaping-related software, but this also included apps to control folks' medical dosages of cannabis. while…

Until I can get a browser adblocker on a non-rooted, non-unlocked iphone, it's not a switch worth making. firefox mobile + ublock origin is the only way I find the mobile web toler…

this is exactly right. folks could likely get by anyway, but it would be dramatically reduced. until there are consequences for lying online, and as long as there's money to be mad…

HN is more worship of entreprenuership with a focus on tech.

funny thing, they could put a molten salt reactor and a solar farm smack in the middle of that thing and likely not have to use petrol ever again.
