Re:Ask HN: What are you using – React, Vue or Svelte? on Friday June 14, 2024 @03:26AM (#40678432)
OMG, this is exactly the kind of direction that I was looking. Tony highly appreciate your in depth points.

- Yes, useState and use useEffect felt like an overhead to me. - I was super confused why we need external library to make react talk and maintain state and data (Redux?)

I am giving Svelte a try today itself

I do love that route too. Though I see this as a contextual thing. If you want to go for enterprise use cases, saving time, focusing on functionality, performance, scalability and maintainability becomes very significant.

I am learning REACT due to same from last two days and I see the benefits though find it over-complicating some simple stuff. Appreciate you answering pal. Have a great day!

Got it, it was length issue. Thanks pal.
Yes, that make sense to me.

I am completely new to HackerNews. I tried updating the title but it doesn't updates as expected.

I filled up the complete form and then realised at end of form, ohh I can't apply from India. Anyways Love DuckDuckGo!
Well updating DNS records is not closely related to any product updates, though this might take a good time to migrate if it's not well planned update.

I remember once my DNS record took more than 3 days to migrate. Now the site is not accessible.

Not sure what you saw, just making a pure guess, Notion/Quip?
Re:Ask HN: Is copyright obsolete in the age of AI? on Saturday June 01, 2024 @03:17PM (#40548343)
Well there is some flag that you can set in robots.txt of your website. But however I am sure, not many AI vendors respect this flag.

Which is why Google Gemini doesn't works to that level of magical greatness, I guess. They go with the ethical route of data collection.

Re:Is all advertising a form of deception? on Saturday June 01, 2024 @03:09PM (#40548285)
No, I was under the same impression until a few days ago. This one line changed the complete approach of looking at ads for me:

"If you believe you can help people but don't promote yourself, you're denying that help to people who need it."

Though that's also a reality these days, people do ads to fool consumers. A good consumer though knows how to read labels!

If you are on desktop, and the distractions come from twitter/x, linkedin or youtube, you can get rid of contents that intrigue you. Like for example:

If you are being disturbed by contents with a specific keyword let's say: Alex.

Just install the extension, add the keyword and no more contents with that word in title will be shown to you.

Get the chrome extension here: https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/meri-marzi-my-choic...

Apart from that, following are effective ways I manage it:

1. Uninstall social apps from your mobile in increasing time splits: Days, Weeks and Months. I have not used Facebook from years, instagram from months and likewise. This create a lot of time for me to work on things I like.

2. The things that you like can sometimes be a real challenge. For same try different things everyday, even a 5 min effort in a new thing will keep you up.

3. Don't root for quick happiness in whatever you do, sometimes its fun to fail in trying many things.
