  1. I yearn for those days. CSS was a mistake. Tables and DHTML is all one needs.
  2. Firefox with ublock and I still get the modal.
  3. And the only institution with a mandate to educate and inform just got defunded.
  4. Great irony of finishing a league game just now where the whole game lagged (for everyone in the game) to find this at the top of HN.
  5. Modern cotton gin.
  6. I built a protein comparison site (aggregating nutrition, ingredients, electrolytes, prices) and I expected a little bit of traffic, but I'm getting less than a single visitor every 2 days from google. It's absolutely dead.

    A year ago I threw together a tiny little site with some datamined assets from a game (deadlock) that randomly got indexed and saw a couple hundred visits a month from google.

  7. > They didn't know what they were doing _and still went through with it_

    You don't know what you don't know; sometimes people can think they do know what they're doing and they just haven't encountered situations otherwise. We were all new to programming once; no one would ever become a solid engineer if they prevented themselves from building anything out of fear of doing something wrong that they did not account for out of lack of experience.

  8. > What is the purpose of laws if they are willfully ignored?

    Nearly every liberty we take for granted was at one point against the law or gained through willful lawbreaking. A healthy society should be tolerant of some bending of the rules.

  9. The comments here all suggesting different arcane and complicated stacks of different devops solutions and certificates and configurations and services has me somewhat despairing that such a COMMON usecase is still so annoyingly obtuse.
  10. Why wouldn't they, it's what plants crave.
  11. CTRL+F 'Enron' 0 results.

    Don't really trust something advocating for deregulated energy markets to not mention the elephant in the room.

  12. It truly would not be a safe settlement without the great Angeline Walls keeping Los Gigantes out from the north.
  13. > - No device should be updated without the owner explicit intention to do so.

    Ahh! But you are just leasing the software!! Samsung is technically the owner!!

  14. > t's not possible to determine from these tests how much of those longer streaming times are down to efficiency or the iPhone 16e's larger battery.

    Hm.

  15. Does Phoenix have auth? Any reason you chose supa over phoenix? And do you store user info (reviews+stuff) in phoenix and just reference it with the supa uuids or do you store user generated info on their own in supa?
  16. The arc of every book-reading software engineer is to attempt a goodreads alternative.

    They're always nice, and always have an achilles heel: the moat of kindle integration. Goodreads is unassailable.
