This is one of those pieces of content that makes me so happy that I know about HN.

Printing is something that I never questioned. I never needed to, but some one, some where thought about a better way. This better way solves a problem I encountered many times in college when I was copying pages of a textbook on loan from the library.

Potentially out of place, but my oh my is this community the best.

Same sentiment here.

Among things like this that I've learnt to do better after not even thinking there was a point for most of my existence, one that has been a (small) life-changer for me is shoe lacing. I've known how to do that well enough since childhood, yet there were much better ways I've discovered thanks to https://www.fieggen.com/shoelace/ .

It's shared several times a year on HN, but it really deserves it.

I've taught myself to use the Ian Knot instead of the Granny Knot and my life is improved for it. Every time I tie my shoes I think of how much better the Ian Knot is.
