Re:Ask HN: How do you assess developer productivity? on Monday October 18, 2021 @07:26PM (#28913139)
It's best to give up? Almost no one would seriously wonder?Software is also too abstract?

Developer productivity questions will always occur in the minds of the people signing the front of the paycheck.

Re:Ask HN: How do you see the world? on Monday October 18, 2021 @06:24PM (#28912568)
One of many worlds.
Well if its just you serving your own images then I think it doesn't matter. If its you hosting images for others, then that chould raise your costs but should be looked at as a cost of doing business and adjust pricing if necessary. The increased cost could be outweighed if there is a significant amount of business you didn't get by not offering the jpeg uploads.
I think the problem I'm having here is that all your terminology is open-ended and subjective. Terms like 'better off' 'happier' 'healcare advancements' are not measurable. It may be possible to answer your own question by reversing the thought. Like, will our dystopian future be caused by our attemp to fight climate change and can that dystopia be mitigated with the use of technological advancements?
This is the worst answer I have read in a year. You should be gratefull someone taught you to wipe your butt. I think what you really meant to say was "I have no idea how email works either but I'm going to make you think you shouldn't try to figure it out because then you might become better than me."
First you didn't beleive I read it, then you tell me I'm confusing myself! I would suggest removing the 'phd' on your username and replace it with something more your speed, like 'sh!t'

EDIT: ok maybe that was a bit harsh but the only way dystopian anything can be a good thing is to people who like dystopia which is then actually utopia and it reverts back to my original answer which is - dystopia = negative.

Social securityis a pretty well known ponzi scheme.
I read it more than once. Need any more clarification or were you just hoping for a longer answer to start a discussion?
yes its negative. look up the word dystopian
Re:Ask HN: Is only using WEBP images “acceptable” in 2021? on Saturday October 16, 2021 @01:52PM (#28889829)
Why would you not support jpeg?
I scan them and save them on some kind of digital format. And things like my kids artwork I save in a box in the closet :-)
Re:Ask HN: Architecture Diagrams for GitHub Readme.md? on Saturday May 11, 2019 @09:35AM (#19886072)
You don't need Google drive. Go to Draw.io and draw a box, then click save as. You will see a github option as well as trello/dropbox/etc. Here, ask theses guys: https://www.linkedin.com/in/gaudenzalder/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/davidbensonuk/
Re:Ask HN: Why post titles are created as a question? on Thursday May 09, 2019 @09:05PM (#19874148)
Your post title is not a question, it is a title with a question mark at the end. Just because you are not expecting an answer doesn't mean you don't deserve one....you did ask a question. Questions also change brain chemistry. The person asking the questions is in control of direction of the conversation. I think the questions that you are speaking of are the type meant to lure you in like "Is DDR4 really faster than DDR3?" and then you read a content marketing article from a DDR4 manufacturer.

I would think you would want to decrease the occurrences of experience by letting someone else's hindsight be your foresight.

Turn off hardware acceleration. That is what fixed my memory suck.

Re:Google is lying to you with their activity controls on Sunday April 15, 2018 @02:05PM (#16843942)
That takeout.google link you shared ..... I'm pretty sure that it is used to create an archive of your data. I'm also pretty sure making an archive will store your stuff with google.
Re:YC S18 YouTube Video on Sunday April 15, 2018 @12:43PM (#16843435)
I did not get contact or interview. In light of the new information by the parent I can only assume that I was "sorted".
