This kinda reminds me a bit of Retool, a SaaS tool I've used quite extensively since a coworker used it to build analytics and customer service data dashboards. It's great, but their mobile layouts kind of suck, so…
Roku became adware and most of my friends/family switched to AppleTV
Slashdot was somewhere between a well curated tech subreddit and Hacker News. It had its own in-jokes like: This is finally "the year of the Linux Desktop" and Jonathan "CowboyNeal" Pater, the site's moderator who often…

Thanks for posting this. He definitely made a big impact on the community and very relevant.
The iPod has less space than a Nomad. Lame.
I wouldn’t say that. JetBrains is incredibly bloated and has significantly less community support. I’ll agree on Teams being crap though, mostly for how dumb it is that they’ve rewritten it multiple times and created a…
the military gets what it wants in DC, and the pilots were too comfortable and on different radio systems (helo can’t hear airplanes and vice versa, air traffic control is their intermediary) A disaster waiting to…
What’s your method? Having had some former coworkers that ended up at various dating platforms, dating is fascinating, I still think dating is something that needs a better modern solution than what “the apps” offer.…
It’s useful to travel. I’m on a bit of a creative renaissance myself. If you’re ever in Los Angeles or California, give a ring!
I briefly worked with folks in this industry. They’re generally underpaid and under resourced.
there was still angst then, it just was more targeted in single directions, not like now where the angst is aimlessly directed at society, sponsored by squarespace
I wish there was a hacker news minus hacker news
Let's recap the past: Taxis were borderline unusable in almost all American cities before Uber (except for NYC) I certainly didn't love their ruthless business practices, but let's not delude ourselves and admit that…

the good news is most of their good engineers had already gone to vw rivian and other companies in LA. sad, but it shows the need for great leadership. bad idea: moving to texas bad idea: lack of focus. build ONE…
They lack the alarmism of CNN, but the way that outlets like NPR were so comfortable to tow obvious political lines during the pandemic (such as even entertaining the possibility of a “lab leak” hypothesis, painting it…
Agreed. I was a longtime listener since I had fond memories of my dad listening in the car growing up, but it’s borderline unlistenable now. Emblematic of the drastic change this generation in the aims of journalism,…
You’re still cherry picking, though. Leukemia and certain cancers were often a death sentence as recently as 1990. Now the survival rate over five years is like 65%+ You can cherry pick a lot of data, but in general the…
A few things: - I've had an electric car for 5 years now. My car has been significantly less maintenance than any I've owned. How is that throwing it away in a landfill? If you're concerned about waste, think about the…
Sounds like the same thing to me. Incentivizing something that is unintended.
Not true. They were definitely intended to plow right through cities. That’s why they built highways/freeways right through urban cores, or planned entire metro regions around them.
Weird complaint because it says a lot about political dysfunction in American society when a (mostly) self-driving car costs about $40,000 but a reasonably decent house in those cities where those cars are built cost…
Because they were made illegal in the 1960s?
more importantly, where were these data ethicists for the past ten years where most of the tech industry built a global data hoover machine for adtech and social media... and now that some tech is actually creatively…
