Sort of the plot of Banana Joe. Everytime I get stuck with some kind of circular bureaucracy I shout "it's Banana Joe all over again!" and no one understands.

The problem today it's hard to convince even myself to pay the storage premium, but I 100% agree with you.

I'm curious what would take for regular people (i.e. people off HN) to realize what is pointed in the article is a real problem. In my experience, every time I mention this I'm lab…

Back in 2000 I was being interviewed for my first internship, to join a team of C programmers. They showed me one of the winner entries of the prior years, asked me to review the c…

Such as Google Wave? I really wanted it to work.

This is a very good comparison, I'll be using it. It just made me realize why I don't have those found memories of my mom's cooking. When we got our first microwave she went full o…

I don't need this to know what wakes me up during the night: my wife pushes the door and THEN turns the doorknob. A simple conversation was no good. My MIL said on her experience d…

You're joking, but the other night I had high fever and had nightmares of AI giving me wrong answers to questions I already knew the answer, but for some reason I kept insisting on…

He didn't receive the memo because someone wrote DECEASED on his mail months ago.

I'm not saying you're wrong, but Apple's parental controls just don't work.

The default Debian version is focused on stability, so you'll only find battle-tested releases in it. That's why it's called "stable", if you're feeling more adventurous than that,…

Coincidentally, I'm reading this at the doctor's office reception, waiting to check my (potentially genetic) hearing loss. Hope it's something simpler, but good to know there are a…

Brazilian here. It's not a superstition, I can see my wife's belly literally inflate if the process is not done correctly. I cook beans at least once a week, I've made mistakes and…

It took me forever to upgrade because I was afraid the same thing would happen to me. Luckily it didn't, but I can imagine the frustration.

Violence is never but sometimes the answer.

At least once a week I ask Claude what to cook with the last ingredients from my last trip to the groceries. I'm still to be disappointed by the results, although every time one of…

It depends on what you call "non-trivial". I found answers on how to circumvent dumb macos bugs on Apple forums at least twice in the last 6 months. One related to displays, I was …

Same here. It's getting quite common for me.

Tbf, if I was the only person in the country, no one would stop me of being the actual king.

"a better home": probably someone who also thinks it's cool and also will never use it :)

Yep. After years of frustration, trying every possible way to fix it, uncountable hours of searching, I asked Claude about it: "just subscribe to an external service". This is ridi…

This article is wrong at its core. > The study was commissioned by Brazilian auto industry group Anfavea Nothing that comes from Anfavea is trustable. It's a crooked association of…

Youtube is trying to push me to watch a video about jail breaking the Echo Show for a week now. I didn't watch it, but it's probably easy to find.

I was going to joke "so, it's Monday, right?" but I thought my memory was playing tricks on me.

The post had a different title hours ago. Something along the lines of "it's Apple's philosophy to offer our software for free forever". I didn't followed the link before, so I don…
