This is one of the only places I still post. I post a little on Mastodon and occasionally lobste.rs but that's about it.

I attribute its retaining of quality to banning memes and other low-effort junk and severely limiting (both as policy and culturally) politics and culture war flame wars. Also being text only helps a lot.

I used to have friends in uni with whom i could share very nerdy/technical conversations. near graduation we no longer get together sadly. this has taken a toll on me. HN is a place that feels like home, even if I'm usually just lurking around and overhearing conversations. Thanks everyone for sharing!

Same happened to me. We drifted apart, live in different cities. But nearly 20 years later, with life settled and kids grown we're rekindling via messaging. I hope firstly, you get your group back, and second it doesn't take 20 years

Time to ship 2024 to production. Happy new year, fellow hackers. May your code always work on the first try and never regress.

Midnight deploys are such a pain, why can't we deploy the new year during business hours?

We tried delaying new year deployment in 2020, 2021, and 2022... it didn't go so well.

So back to the tried and true pipeline!
