ty for maintaining kcc, I’ve used it heavily for close to a decade. I definitely noticed the performance boost on my macbook :)
it’s all part of the experience lol. I’d imagine I’d stop finding these quirks amusing pretty quickly if I actually lived there and got over the honeymoon phase. Also the self affirmation messages they play on the buses…
I just moved to Seattle after being in New Orleans for about a month and I already miss nola. There’s really nothing else like it in America. I’m especially missing the cheap public transit and good dive bars, Seattle…
I’d imagine mostly due to a lack of incentive on microsoft’s part. Like minecraft is literally the biggest video game to ever exist with, making 2 entirely separate code bases work while keeping all the features the…
There was a pretty great article a few years ago about the downfall of 23andMe (I think it was in The Atlantic), but basically they ran through all of their potential customers within a few years. It turns out that when…
tysm for contributing to standard ebooks, one of my favorite things on the whole internet
I used to hold the same opinion as you, but since getting a m2 air I’ve really enjoyed how thin and light it is. It really is a noticeable quality of life improvement. Once you have a decent stockpile of usb c cables…

Thank you for sharing this short story. I read it with my coffee and really enjoyed it, turns out existential dread goes well with the first hit of caffeine of the day. You made my morning :)

My experience with a prius in the north east was that it wasn't particularly bad in ice and snow and the few times I got caught in snowstorms it handled about as well as any front wheel drive car. I certainly wouldn't…
thanks for the gift link :)
It's kind of funny how far back this whinging about kids not being able to use computers goes, especially how condescending this blog is. Most people will only learn as much about computers to do their work and nothing…
The main argument against capital punishment isn't even that mistakes are made. Capital punishment is more expensive and less effective as a deterrent for crime compared to life imprisonment. The argument for MAID is…
It does show how out of touch tech workers are that they are shocked someone is able to live off 1k a month. It sometimes feels like hn posters were born on college campuses and shielded from normal society until their…
Making using a car more expensive doesn't disincentivize car ownership or usage when there is no other alternative. Like you can't rely on public transportation, biking, or ride shares to get to your job in most parts…

This is cool and the formatting is spot on with real nutrition labels. It’s doesn’t scan all that well though, it’s not immediately apparent that this is a listing of tracks and not albums or artists. Replacing m with…
The difference is showing my id to a minimum wage liquor store worker for a few seconds vs giving my id to a company and trusting them to store it indefinatly and tying my internet presence to my actual identify all for…
Thats definitely what's happening, at least with music. When radio was dominant, the "hot 100" lists were pretty diverse because everyone was exposed to the same set of ~70-150 hit songs every year, that were curated by…
At the very least, you get acclimated to the smell of cannabis much quicker then the smell of cigarettes at least in my experience. It's also becoming increasingly common to vape cannabis in America, which only has a…
I think this is an out of touch perspective. Big industry music has never been more irrelevant since radio stopped being the main way people discovered new bands. I notice that with my peers (early 20's), I listen to at…
The most practical/cheap option would probably be an old phone with parental locks and access to a streaming service. It'd be much more functional and cheaper than any dedicated screenless device, and it gives a kid…
This is adorable, I had so much fun seeing what creatures I could make.
