where'd you find out about this algolia link? any other cool HN-adjacent tools that might not be well known?

That would be search window at the bottom of the main HN page.

You can use it to find the thread last week that points all the other HN secrets.

thanks

lmao. noted

crazy how influential that little book is. funny enough, I grew up on Ready Player One, and by the time i got old enough to start seriously getting into tech, reading Snow Crash was like re-reading RP1 but if RP1 was actually a good story and not written by an incel copying Neal Stephenson.

Ernest Cline sux

>> 'incel copying Neal Stephenson.' Wow.

sorry, hyperbole. don't mean that seriously. I was VERY much not a fan of RP2; I'm sure Neal could be a stand-up guy, just sarcasm that didn't land.

post now hidden; for my digital footprint's sake this was an off-handed late night comment expressing my disdain for poor writing in Ready Player 2 & personal thoughts on the novel.
