What is the 28% failure rate, is that from the removal of strong typing? Love the idea!

Dude there is nothing "far right" about him. Way too broad a brush to paint with. If we want to retain any sort of liberal democracy we need to stop with the rhetoric that "if you'…

This has been tried multiple times actually via ISAs and other instruments. Immediately inverts to adverse selection - eg the students who are going for a more lucrative option don…

We used to build great big crazy things too, lots via research universities due to vast federal and defense research. That has changed. It should be reinstated. Cut red tape, get b…

This thread, in and of itself, demonstrates the incredible quality of this community. Thank you to all of you, and especially to @dang and @tomhow for thanklessly holding us all to…

Their bottom control buttons here feels like the perfect use-case for liquid glass. Really enjoying this new UI from Apple.

Kevin Hartz is the most desirable angel in the valley IMO. His advice and generosity with his time is unparalleled.

This is my favorite type of hacker news content. Something really cool that I never would have stumbled upon myself. I'm really surprised how built-up Gaul and Germany are here
