    You can use tools like CleanMyMac to show folders and their sizes. All cache and library files are counted under System, e.g. files from vagrant, docker, vms, old jetbrains IDEs, c…

    I really like urban places with public transport on the street. It leads to less cars and more pedestrian friendly streets. Also I think for small distances (Zürich is not that big…

    Can you explain where? Which tracks? I have seen this comment on Reddit a few months ago, and some people were talking about it. They came to the conclusion that you cannot see the…

    This is a bad assumption to make. There are infinitely many reasons why the internet could be not working currently. This is just lazy engineering and a lack of testing.

    Complex solution to a simple problem. Just ban ads in cities. Like some cities have already done. Then the ads that are left are just for stuff that is important, e.g. events, musi…

    The big advantage is that you can be sure that the cannabis you are buying is actually of a good quality. Especially in Baden-Württemberg (cannot find the source anymore), more can…

    I think I read here on HN some time ago that it is intentionally hard to read to discourage posts with text. I think the reasoning was that posting links to external blogs / websit…

    That is so funny, sometimes I experience the exact opposite. After connecting my MacBook to my projector (ViewSonic 747), all video (Chrome, Quicktime, IINA, etc) plays like 30x fa…

    No idea why your comment is gray, but I agree. The site looks horrible. The text is so thin, it is almost unreadable (at least on macOS). Not to speak of the constantly changing vi…

    Great idea. Should also take into account misclicks directly after layouts shifts in some websites.

    What do you mean by "ignores the horrors happening there"? There is a daily coverage of what is happening, there are even live tickers and articles. The reports mention what is hap…

    I am doing something similar, but far simpler: I have a chat with myself in Telegram, that I can access on all my devices (Telegram has a desktop app). If I want to remember someth…

    It is less convenient (by design), but you can always manually look for new drivers and download them. Thats how I do it. Maybe someone wrote a script that automatically scrapes th…

    The images on mobile behind the text lead to pretty low contrast between foreground and background, making the text hard to read.

    Next time use this simple strategy: Leave a 5 star review, collect the 30$, then change it to a 1 star review. Ideally Amazon would do something against this, but I think they just…
