"Focus on what matters." :/ I guess they replaced their copywriter with AI.

"Save in memory to always use ASD-STE100 Simplified Technical English when you talk to me"

Fixed for me. Now the text outputs and comments are pretty easy to follow and read.

uBlock team is the modern times heroes fighting the good fight for us. Thanks to them I've been navigating the web with peace of mind for a long time.

Sometimes I find myself thinking how our lives would be if couple of guys didn't build shitty tech startups. We've gone from creative advertising to these manipulative online marketing scams, that attack our brains, especially targeting young generation, which effects how our societies, behaviours, art and culture develop.

Recommend watching:

"We're building an artificial intelligence-powered dystopia, one click at a time, says technosociologist Zeynep Tufecki. In an eye-opening talk, she details how the same algorithms companies like Facebook, Google and Amazon use to get you to click on ads are also used to organize your access to political and social information. And the machines aren't even the real threat. What we need to understand is how the powerful might use AI to control us -- and what we can do in response."

"What happens when software features, UX, and visual fidelity aren't competitive advantages anymore?"

This is the question I've been thinking about. All can be copied very easily and in scale these days.

Designer: Passed 1000 Commits

Dear HN engineers; I'm really curious how is your current relationship with designers? What changed in your workflow? How you manage handoffs?I feel there is a rising tension about this.

Re:Last.fm is now independent on Thursday May 28, 2026 @04:21AM (#48306172)
Congrats to the team. Always a fan.

Scrobbles: 301,223 Scrobbling since 4 Jan 2007.

They were also the inspiration for https://artconnects.club

Like folks here in the comments mentioned last.fm was great for meeting people through music and mutual taste. I had many friends and great conversations with people that share my music taste. That indicator design showing our common music was a great deal. Now I'm building that to connect people through movies, series, albums and books. Displaying their common stuff. This is the way!
