Why do you measure floppy capacity in megabarns?

It came from the same developer. The mere fact that he was that sloppy in securing a publicly-facing service to leave a vulnerability so severe and so easily discovered should have…

> goto language As in ‘considered harmful’? I’m staying away from any language with vulnerabilities like these: https://christine.website/blog/OVE-20190623-0001

What are you people complaining about? The command does exactly what it advertised, it chucks disks.

XFCE is barely maintained, unfortunately. The recent port to Gtk3 lost some functionality as a result of regressions in the toolkit: keybindings in menus are no longer hover-rebind…

There's still a missing word or something else going on: "Flurly is a Shopify alternative attempts"

Beginners and also C++ programmers, expert and beginner alike. Even though it’s just as misleading in C++. This: int a = 0; int& x = a, y = a; declares x to be a reference, but y a…

There's a typo on the Shopify page: "Flurly is a Shopify alternative attemps"

Nice job. A suggestion: support alternative payment processors besides Stripe. I paid with cryptocurrency for the first time today when I realized my webhost accepted it in lieu of…

Might have something to do with the fact that the dialogue was apparently originally written in Polish, which usually omits subject pronouns (they can be inferred from the verb for…

The Dat people are notoriously opposed to blockchain hype. That doesn't mean you should actually go build anything on top of their projects (for reasons to do with what the top pos…

I considered, especially since this is a Show HN, to not say anything and let it slide, but considering the potential long tail for negative effects, where web dev circles are alre…

Your HN profile is empty, so there seems to be no good way to check out your institution's program or to contact you.

Size of visual cue and size of hit target should not be conflated. In terms of visuals, it is a good idea for the marker to be presented as unobtrusively as possible.

This but unironically.

Shoehorning big words into a message usually has the opposite of the intended effect. This instance is not the exception.

There's a perverse irony in the way your responses here exude condescension while ostensibly trying educate and inform about the sort of things that people respond to. Although it …

I think you replied to the wrong thread.

> It seems clear that you find niceties and pleasantries to be not genuine or unnecessary Wrong. It seems clear you all like making assumptions and treating them as unshakeable tru…

I don't understand.

That recommendation strikes me as much closer to an attempt to make a statement with a rhetorical question than the question I actually asked. Even the most charitable assumption o…

You haven't given me anything actionable. Read the question I asked, understand against your instincts that it is a question and not the insult you assumed it to be, and then tell …
