I can only imagine how upsetting this must be for you and your family. I just hope that after you’ve had some time to process, that your son finds a way forward that brings him clo…

I don’t know, we’ve had staged content presented as reality for a long time(ie almost all “reality” tv) and we seem to be doing ok. The TikTok content you’re describing doesn’t fee…

I've always felt a connection to this story in my professional life. I've been in enough rooms full of "ideas people" who will spend an entire meeting talking about tools that shou…

Outside of gaslighting's original context in a relationship, I often see it used to refer to a form of strawman argument. I read the gaslighting comment as saying that the person k…

I think the RPA is way overhyped, especially the "ML" features of the big players. But from what I've seen, it does have it's place in the enterprise. There are two primary types o…

We used Casbin at my previous company where we needed to implement RBAC on top of our API that was written in Go. What we liked about it was that it could be embedded directly in o…

Yeah and those numbers seem in line with what others have reported in HN meta threads on the topic, and at least an n of 1 personal experience. I totally get it when it’s a game or…

Do you have a source that confirms LingQ filed the motion? It seems like the most likely explanation, but I haven’t been able to find much more context here outside of the update t…

I'm in the process of porting a reasonably complex hobby app that I built in RN to Flutter. Things I like better about Flutter: - Cleaner upgrades. For mere mortals like myself, RN…

Resistance bands, a pull-up bar and a TRX go a long way for a fraction of the cost and space of a gym. Not as effective as free weights (in my personal experience) for putting on a…

Prismatic It was an intelligent news reader that had amazing content discovery based on my interests and a solid UI.

This article is about a study done on mice. Having not read the underlying study, and it not being my field, I can't speak to how well the article articulates the study's findings,…

Nothing high tech. Started out monitoring failed deliveries and sent out verification requests manually to get over the first week or two. I noticed it was failing consistently on …

Good point, I mean user name and password, with an initial verification email. If you use the email option, you can't get into the app without first clicking a verification link in…

I'm the creator of Langliter, which launched a little over a month ago. 40% email 30% Google 30% Facebook Google might be a little under represented due to a bug (was fixed within …
