I like crypto a lot to transfer money on my own terms
edit: in reply to rhizome below: yeah, I bought drugs, money, goods, etc... But I also lost money when the US Gov messed with BTC-e [1]... I hope that Biden doesn't get too stupid with his regulations.

There was no frameworks or high level languages to add a bunch of bloat, maybe?

Maybe you could eliminate most parking spaces and reduce the total number of cars if everyone would share a number of real-self-driving cars.
Re:New 5D Storage to Offer 10,000x the Density of Blu-ray

Scihub, libgen, datasets, etc... as much data as possible.
My personal data is probably less than 1TB at this point, but a way to store it long term would be nice.

I don't care about seek times if we can have media with orders of magnitude more storage capacity and life expectancy. (of course if you can also have good seek times, it would be icing on the cake)

That doesn't make it good or bad, but HN itself changes the ranking of an article based on the upvotes/comments ratio...

Re:Ask HN: Best Keyboard for Programming in 2021?

A keyboard layout that you are familiar with that has a numeric keypad... I like my IBM KU-0225... it looks like this: https://i5.walmartimages.com/asr/3038865f-6e35-4e01-9dd7-392... .... it has almost the same layout as IBM model M but with Windows keys and context menu key (I strictly use Linux and I use the Windows keys a lot)

It is a current form of the metaverse... and I think that you underestimate how it could evolve... but I sure hope that WebAssembly never takes over.
