Folks on reddit and hackernews aren't normal people. Outside of this bubble few people have heard of linux. Hell so few people I know use firefox which makes me mad. You are safe f…

Thinking of buying shorts on twitter now with all the dumb ass news going around...

Thing is it hasn't moved as much as you think. People have moved from poverty to lower middle class not actually middle class. If consider middle class as between 20k to 40k a mont…

So what exactly is the use of GPUs like A100 apart from in mining cryptocurrencies ? Also isn't mining cryptos banned in China? Am I missing something?

Having something for free but for a brief period of time is actually really inconvenient if you think about it. You are basically forced to move or find some alternative. You want …

>It probably pleases the people who were paying you, because now they don't have to subsidise the people who aren't. Bullshit. It's unclear communication and indecisiveness that pi…

All your arguments are very specific to yourself and is not necessarily indicative of "All teens". 20 years ago we didn't have the so called social media we have today. And back th…

I think the end goal of Amazon is to replace these employees with bot and to automate manual labour work. Until then all this is just ways to delay the unionization as much as poss…

Even that can achieved by changing the time you do things. Like schools can be 1 hour early at a particular time of the year instead of changing time for everybody else. Honestly I…

I don't get it, why does it matter at all? Isn't it just a perception. If you live in Alaska there are days where there is always sunlight and similarly days where there is no ligh…

Was this even an argument? it felt more like "We should have a Jewish state because we can and there nothing anyone can do about it, if you are not Jewish go fuck yourself. " Histo…

His other games didn't load on firefox for me.

In India the advice that I receive mostly these days is to find someone who works at the company you want to interview at and ask him to refer you. Apparently this is much better m…

One thing I can suggest is to switch to business news instead. Business news is more inclined to give all the facts rather than give an opinion on things. Also looking at things fr…

Maybe an unpopular opinion here but I am finding HN to be more and more like Reddit everyday. I normally only read HN articles that have atleast 500 points or more and have notific…

>It will take forever to build up a similar ecosystem in Europe and I think most successful European entrepreneurs will just end up starting companies in the US instead. This is wh…

So could this be because of 5G because if I remember right the latest 5G roll out caused a lot of problems for airlines?

This is a contentious point especially for software engineering jobs as the salary is supposed to be based on performance as there is no obvious benefit to being in the same geogra…

Can you give some examples that expand into your answer, maybe some blogpost or youtube videos that explains this in detail.

>I'd frequently tell my co-workers, "If you're not paying for it, you're the product." That experience underscored that notion for me. But this isn't true for all of us, google pro…

So what makes it so difficult to prove that a virus is not naturally occurring? Because that would be the starting point to all this and without proof this would continue to be the…

Outlook, word and I think even google keyboard does the same thing. You have to basically type it again in them and they take it to mean you don't want it autocorrected.

In India all business communications are moving to WhatsApp because everyone uses it. Even if you switch to other platforms you will be forced to use WhatsApp for business communic…

This blog is probably not meant for hackernews community overall. I for one have been using firefox in both desktop and mobile for quite sometime now. I guess the problem today is …
