Systemd seems prime for a rethink like X11 has received with Wayland. I hope that systemd becomes the next target for cross-distro development and collaboration once Wayland has se…

I'm sorry to hear that. Where I live actually has the opposite; there are ~6 within a mile, and they're usually completely full. People are always dumping huge collections into the…

While we're sharing AI generated videos, IGORRR's ADHD music video [0] is definitively art, zero question about it. I don't think typing a prompt in and taking the output as it com…

It's essentially the same problem as https://xkcd.com/927/ [How Standards Proliferate]

I've noticed a funny tendency among some Fediverse passionates to have strong feelings about how others should be using it. Author says "We could not both be right," but that's rat…

I'm reading HN on my laptop outside, and a ladybug landed on my screen right as I was reading this comment. It's sitting there as I write this. I know this doesn't contribute to th…

I see what you're getting at, but I think a better framing would be: there's an implicit understand amongst humans that, in the case of things ostensibly human-created, a human fou…

Assuming the issue with old reddit is font & element size, does zooming in with Ctrl+ not solve the problem?

David Duchovny has never written a blog post about the identity of Jack the Ripper. Coincidence?

Looking forward to the "Be Like ChatGPT" site 20 years from now.

This hits awfully close to home -- my parents made a decent income growing up, but it was an endless cycle of buying nice houses and cars only to sell them a few years later, and s…

The issue is that the article is excessively verbose; the time you saved in writing end editing comes at the cost of wasting readers' time. There is nothing wrong with using AI to …

I get the sense the author has a very specific example in mind (something less hypothetical than black belts) that they're very carefully not spelling out. But they fail to abstrac…

Would everyone agree with that definition, though? It seems like discussions around DEI tend to go in circles, because proponents see bad implementations as not really DEI, and opp…

One of my favorite quotes, and why I don't bother trying to explain psychedelic experiences any more - "To him who has had the experience no explanation is necessary, to him who ha…

What would you consider to be truly politically neutral, then? Because it seems we're in agreement that a decision to "refer to all trans people using they/them" would not fit the …

You would consider that decision politically neutral?

Just want to say I appreciate you publicly taking this stance (on what appears to be a non-throwaway account, no less). As a fellow LGBT person I feel so alienated from other progr…
