This is a fascinating take that I've never really considered. Thanks

Well, I have to spend about 7 hours a day inside on a computer, as I'm sure you do too! I have to spend my time doing 'something' while Jenkins does its thing :) PS. I'd say it's more 'exasperation' at the scenario than…
But it's not flippant, it's genuine, that is the answer for these people. It is really that simple (for 99% of people). Yes there will be outliers that this doesn't work for, but those are outliers. HN comments always…
These tools aren't for helping people's mental health though, are they. They are becoming attached to fantasy beings and sad when they disappear. That is the OPPOSITE of healthy, and it's clearly having a dramatically…
I understand this may be an unpopular take here on HN (it certainly isn't in the real world), but but I can't see these people as anything other than pathetic. Go out, get a hobby, and meet real people. Jesus christ.

We have 'freedom of expression' and case law, but these things end up having to go to court, so I think it being written in a constitution would be better.
Wow, I get this! I never knew it was something other people experienced, usually it sounds like doors being slammed or big bangs. It's really odd
If you believe what people say, instead of what people do, then you are going to be disappointed by many, many people in your life. It's a cliche, but it's true: actions speak louder than words. You are the things you…
It's against the rules to editoralise the title to be clickbait, it isn't against the rules to submit the literal title of the post.
"Keep at it, it can be frustrating at times but if you keep studying and practicing how to become a better developer, you will become one" There are no shortcuts in life. You need to work at it. Cognizant practice got…
Our job is to think about problems and solve them, I'm in completely agreement with GP
193 points, 7 hours old. Removed from HN. ...Interesting dang, what's up with that?
Can you give an example of 'shitty code'? We've got murmurs of Go being adopted by some teams so if you have first hand experience it'd be really useful
I'm not autistic, and I have the same issue with arbitrary rules, airports or other security theatre are a classic example. I'm sure there are many people out there that feel the same way
Wow, what a fantastic website. Thank you! It's great that it has other languages, as I'm fairly decent in English, but given that it's real examplse, and it highlights the text... brilliant design choice
I grew up playing Quake back in the mid 90s with M&K, so when the PS2 and XBOX came out and multiplayer shooters became really big (Halo, CoD, Medal of Honor...), I had a lot of experience playing these kind of games,…
It's very funny to me, as in the 90s when console FPSes first started coming out there were always debates on PC vs Console in school, and whether mouse and keyboard was better than joypad, I guess now everyone knows…
>The POD had a photo of the front door and the person. I recognised the front door as it was on a local estate. What more evidence do you need?
Because they all edit their articles 1984-style (We never said IDF were behind it / We never said there were 500 dead / We never said it was the hospital that was hit), instead of owning up and admitting mistakes they…
I am not a fan of the space combat, but barring that this is a fantastic game that I discovered very late on in my adulthood. The sense of adventure and exploration is unmatched IMHO.
