> recreational psychoactives of any kind I’d prefer my ATC has a cup of coffee if they want it. Aside from that, what does what happens in their off hours matter provided they’re c…

This dynamically generates a font jumbling up english letters so that when you copy text from it what you paste is garbled. This was inspired by annoying sites that try to prevent …

This is nonsense, it’s obvious what type of safety OP meant. I have no idea what could be irresponsible about not including contrived, ridiculous scenarios. It’s like saying he als…

Those tend to fall out of the “active use” category not long after entering it, so it’s probably not a big factor. On a more serious note, had there been something special about SQ…

As a 20%er who worked on this it’s a bit discouraging to see such a shallow dismissal. A lot of people put in a lot of work as a passion project to keep matrix from just disappeari…

Very impressive. One cool thing you can further do to improve perceived speed potentially at the expense of some bandwidth is to begin to preload pages when a link is hovered. Ther…

> We're all closer to being millionaires than Jeff Bezos. This is true in terms of orders of magnitude, but gets hilariously true when looking at the absolute numbers. The differen…

As a tech yuppie, spoiled by takeout and company food, I'm looking at eating a lot of fast food in the next 3+ weeks, but I'm starting to think that's not great and that being lock…

Similarly in Typescript, it seems like most of my code reviews consist of just telling people not to override null checking. Adding a ! suppresses an error from the compiler, it do…

Not to mention every comment dpower has made is on a post related to Hiri. Maybe HN should just explicitly allow and tag accounts made to promote a company. It makes sense that peo…

Don't take this as me wanting it to happen, but what would it take for the decision to be made to kill these monkeys, and who would make it? Is there a state or federal agency that…

This is common, or at least, I've definitely had my parents do this for me, and I know my friends have too. The logic is as follows: I need to be up early, my parents always get up…

Here's a cached version from Google: https://webcache.googleusercontent.com/search?q=cache:BaMH6h... Unfortunately it looks like there's a playground for you to try exploiting thes…

I briefly had an Echo, and one thing my friends and I found funny was to have it play some annoying song, and then call out "Alexa, volume 10" because once it got that loud, the on…

I'm not sure that's wrong. Look at the (temporary) outrage whenever Facebook does a redesign, even Facebook is allowed to not look like Facebook.

Maybe this isn't the right place to ask, but could someone explain the rationale for taxing gifts within a family? Ignoring the possibility of using it to circumvent an income tax,…

Is there any requirement in the law that the women on the board actually do anything other than be a member of it? Would anything stop a woman from offering to sit on your board an…

Clicking the link to the HTML version of the book takes you to a page that makes you tweet (and grants some pretty far reaching twitter permissions) to read the book. If you click …

What did you do to train?

Maybe a better way to phrase the question then would be “What is the most useful categorization of life and non-life?”

It might be better to just call it version control for application states, rather than saying a "git-like CLI" for application states. When I hear "git-like CLI" I interpret that a…
