  1. Where are all the supposed productivity gains going on HN?

    At best, average credibility across HN from what I can see has remained roughly the same, though it realistically went down a bit compared to 3 years ago. (When GPT-4 became widely used with decently useful outputs)…

  2. Why are there an increasing number of outright unhinged high karma users on HN?

    I’ve been noticing this disturbing trend for quite a while. By high karma I mean well over 1000 karma. And some of these leave comments so bizarre, that I can’t find any charitable explanation. Other than perhaps they…

  6. Ask HN: Is there an encrypted email client that just works?

    My bar for ‘just works’ is that max 5 minutes of fiddling around should be sufficient to get it setup. (and no more than 1 minute of fiddling after each update/change of settings) Bonus points if it can gracefully fall…

  15. Is there a 'complete' email solution provider/software?

    There are some email features that theoretically should exist, notably encryption, that are just not fully implemented and/or correctly implemented by many of the popular options. So this made me wonder whether such a…

  16. How to make sure enough fonts are installed to display all Unicode characters?

    There seem to be almost 150000 characters encoded in the latest version. No font that I know of covers even 10% of that range. Obviously a huge amount of partial overlap between fonts exist, but likely some of the…

  22. Are there resources explaining what really happens in a computer?

    I'm thinking of something very basic, like booting up the simplest possible modern computer (raspberry pi?) to reach the BIOS or UEFI, but explained at the lowest logical level. i.e. from the perspective of actual bits…

    As we all know there are limitless temptations on the internet. And more is added every day. Conversely, the real thought provoking, life enhancing, stuff is buried under layers of noise, cynicism, even misdirection.…
