    That's not really a good reason to neglect statistics and probabilities/studies/findings. If you know that crossing a highway will make it likely for you to get killed, then you be…

    Ask HN: Are there any HN-like communities for programming discussions?

    I don't like Stack Overflow, but I need an alternative to it. HN is where I genuinely feel safe and happy! Is there anything programming related that resembles the HN community? So…

    I am wondering how other HNers are doing right now? Are you all good and ready for 2021? If you already in 2021: Happy New Year! One thing for sure: My New Year's Eve with an impos…

    I wish the whole Internet would become an HN. Imagine an HN-esque YouTube (no click-bait and other BS). Imagine an HN-like Stack Overflow (no toxicity and with its own charm and fr…

    Maybe: - Speaking another language than English. Language is a key to access a culture. - Being more or less aware of your neurological (isolation, attention, sleep, meditation, n-…

    Ask HN: Are we living in “Amerika”? And is globalism sustainable?

    It seems like much of the world has become Americanized either way. As if Rammstein's song "Amerika" got its way. Companies adopting anglicisms ad infinitum instead of using native…

    Oh someone mentioned Obsidian way earlier than me? Nice! IMHO: Using Obsidian with the PARA system and the Johnny File System makes a lot of things neat. :) You can use the JFS als…

    How about Obsidian? I combine Obsidian with PARA and the Johnny File System. Both are methodologies to organize notes and files & folders. Knowledge graphs are cool. :) Edit: Oh so…

    "One needs to have solid fundamentals and one needs to be proficient in ephemeral tools. It's tedious." Thank you too for your insightful answer! Yep, OpenGL is quite a good exampl…

    Thank you a thousand times for your valuable input. :) This shows me, that my "intuition" or rather "internal operating system" is flawed and needs to be recalibrated. Yeah, then m…

    Ask HN: Automation is going to affect our jobs soon, right?

    So what strategies do you think are going to keep you relevant in the future? Things like "no-code development platform" or NCDP will perhaps lessen the demand of web developers. U…

    Ask HN: Do you know an Obsidian-esque file explorer?

    I'm looking for an Obsidian-esque file explorer that works in combination with the Johnny File System. There needs to be a better way to browse through files without the Windows Ex…

    Your answer showed me how insignificant my question is. And I don't mean that in a sarcastic or demeaning manner. It's just a fact. So thank you! :) (And happy holidays.) Tough may…

    Ask HN: Do you practice online minimalism? How?

    It occurs to me that you have to have a lot of online accounts for various things and purposes. I am sure you have at least a couple of these accounts: Gmail, Outlook, Protonmail, …
