How ironic would it be if someone from that agency fell victim to impersonation.

Wow, when is HN getting added to the list? This feels like a form of dystopian future is already here.

Let's face it, we are fucked.

Thank you! I wish some conscious billionaires got together and bought up as much land as possible and titled it the local indigenous populations. Why is this not a thing yet?

No sources, but something tells me we are already past the tipping point.

It would be ironic if we ourselves turned into AI-like super powerful entities and AI in a sense of the word as we understand it now, never happens. If that moment were ever to get…

The article states that the photon sphere does not exist, therefore his explanation is incorrect.

This all feels like smokescreen for the real issue - engines being too large for the airframe. Am I the only one who sees this as a grand fuck up that only has one outcome? And it'…

This article hits me right in the gut because I'm guilty of every one of those HAVE YOU EVERs. Ouch. Even as we speak, I'm here commenting away (why?) on Hacker News when I should …

What steps? You are your own boss, you can set your own rates to whatever you like. I think the challenge for most freelancers is fighting their own mind. Somehow, they feel they h…

I agree. It's a known fact that guys don't develop fully until well into their late 20's, early 30's. For example: I took accounting and finance courses in college and I hated them…

For a loss of this scale, you'd think the authorities would start looking into Cotten's communication prior to all of this. I would imagine the things he spoke about with others wo…

Ironic that you mention material design and DO as prime examples of good UI when any UX designer who has to deal with the blunders of those two things will tell you that both are e…

Is it just me or is anyone else bothered by Plaid privacy policy on the information they collect? I want to use this app but reading through that privacy policy is the stuff of pot…

It feels like us humans are unable to solve the challenges ahead of us. One could argue the sort of effort and organization required to make an appropriate change would take a coup…

It blows my mind that to date we have major companies who put forward horrible UX. Few come to mind off the top of my mind: Chase, PayPal, Digital Ocean. Trying to get statements f…

Google UX in general is atrocious. They keep changing the format on every product so you never know where to look. The use of dark patterns is especially horrible. I don't know if …

Thanks for sharing your story. There are many valuable lessons there and I certainly wish you all the best. I am familiar with Gumroad as someone who has used it to buy things. Fro…

Nice to see an article by Devesh linked here.

If you have to sell yourself on a portfolio then you are talking to the wrong prospects. Some of my best clients have never seen my portfolio. Even the ones who start off with "whe…

Same in Japan. Zero results for "porn". On a different note, I can't believe how terrible google news UI looks. It used to be easy to find things, now it looks like some designer h…

As a designer who often hands over designs to developers, I find it all too frequent scenarios where developers struggle interpreting design into code. I have NEVER seen a develope…

I'm a consultant in my 30s and I worry about my 50's and 60's. I feel like, if I don't get a recurring revenue product going that sells itself without the trade of time for money, …

Is anyone planning to scan all the available PDFs or data sources and put together a comprehensive tool for all hospitals in each state? Now THAT would be a hell of a tool to get h…
