Re:Good Tools Are Invisible on Friday July 10, 2026 @09:21AM (#48859570)
I think this article might miss the point that tools like vim often have a much higher ceiling than the transparent or conventional alternative. You get good at the puzzle part of it (which goes along with any craft), and you are able to do things faster than your former self could have conceived.

I remember coming up as a programmer and seeing someone who was truly excellent at using their text editor making large sets of changes that would have taken me double or triple the time and having this feeling of, "ohhh that's the payout."

Re:There Is No 'Hard Problem of Consciousness' on Monday May 18, 2026 @01:12PM (#48182415)
I found this article really frustrating.

The author takes a blurry position between non-dualist naturalists like John Searle and eliminativists like Dennett and the Churchlands and doesn't seem to engage with them at all, much less probing into the issues with those views that might motivate people like Chalmers and Nagel.

It crescendos with a hand-wave:

> The mind is the behavior of the brain, properly described in a high-level language. Neither my own experience of myself nor an external experience of me is primary[.]

A number of views about consciousness are compatible with statements like that (like the ones above and many others), each with their own philosophical tradeoffs and bullets to bite. The author seems generally unaware of them yet somehow confident that they've solved the matter.

Re:Why We're Building Observable on Friday November 20, 2020 @02:48PM (#25164150)
I kind of thought that too, but somewhere around the start of the pandemic, I was able to quickly develop an interactive dataviz on Observable (https://observablehq.com/@mistidoi/coronavirus-tests-positiv...) and drop it into a blog post trivially (https://relevant.healthcare/blog/2020-04-02-covid-state-visu...). Beyond the work on the viz itself, it took something like 15 minutes to get it into the blog post, and it's more or less seamless.

Confession though, I might have been powered by Mike Bostock fanboy juice. d3 is part of what made me fall in love with programming.

Re:Ask HN: My startup is in a WeWork. What should we expect? on Friday September 27, 2019 @11:38AM (#21093111)
Thanks so much for this thoughtful and well-argued answer. I really appreciate it.

Ask HN: My startup is in a WeWork. What should we expect?

We rent half a floor in a WeWork in NYC. We recently priced out a move to a traditional lease. With the uncertainty about where we'll be in 5 years, we came to the conclusion that staying in WeWork is the best thing for at least the next 18 months.With all the drama around WeWork's S-1, I find myself wondering what the possible outcomes might be... your thoughts?
